March 5 The side lights have / had this timer cut into the line, 3 - 6 - 9 - hr choice's Plugged into my lights timer it goes off great but it wouldn't come on unless I switched it on....So I cut it off and straight wired it into the timer....I was a bit nervous at first not knowing if there were any diodes, transformers or electronics in the switch to change the voltage to the lights. For all I knew these things could run on 12v dc.... 4 light strips came with the pack so I cut out the timer hooked up the power to the light on a switch......stood back and flipped the switch....lights came on...no poof, no blow fuse...it worked...I used to work in the electrical business so blowing fuses & sometimes ballasts & other electrical components was a regular occurrence....Well not regular but often......nope......occasionally....Okay once and a while...lol

I made small chocolate bars for my wife last night some dark chocolate, some a mix dark & milk & Skor bar pieces...so much for the diet...about 2 cups of decarbed lower buds & bud crunchies from jarring. & Coconut oil

My last grow was basically garbage (for many reasons), 3 out of 4 plants in the trash, 1 keeper and it was crappy...really tough to ever get back on track after a crappy cycle...

I remember now, it took a good nights sleep...fkin old man.......I fried my seedlings with too many nutes.....I gotta take a pick of these things after coffee . I stuck 3 in the garage +3c max temp and 2 I just moved onto a workshop bench. I have a hard time killing things lol.....2 only get minimal light when I'm in the shop 3-4 hrs/ day if that 1 is going through a stretch and has small buds forming....no water or anything for 2 + weeks...

I don't like throwing plants out BUT I'm getting better at it .

Also, keeping a bunch of clones/Moms all the time is just not worth the time n effort for me due to space concerns anymore. The plants suffer in the long run.

Sticking to mostly Fem seeds now with a Reg thrown in here n there so really no need for taking the cuts. Got lots of Regs, just don't have the space.

I'm just trying to rotate mom's I grow them until I can get a few cuts growing then flip the mom and do the same with at least 1 of her clones...Regs are a long haul for me to get a stable fem mom to cycle..I have just 3 strains now with a Bubble Bomb a Jam/ Purple Haze and a Interstate Dragon fems and clones growing...I'm working on a Tangie 99 but only 2 out of 4 left 2 were males and I've cuts off them both in my bubbler........soon as I see roots growing now I can flip the moms or kill the fking fathers...lol

I hear what your saying about the rotation, I just don't do that cause I'm usually ready to try another strain...then when I do get back to them they're old and decrepit lol...

As long a there's something growing we're good tho eh!

Lol at you finding those plants...that's funny

I think she is awful light green, maybe some Epsom or whatever you use...maybe even some P as well. You have some leaf cupping bit I'd blame those on the issues I listed. It looks like from overwatering. Is this a test?

Now, someone who really knows will come to answer your question.

EDIT: just looked on pc not phone...wow totally different looking...am I ever wrong...still looks overwatered to me...the rest I'm all wrong lmao

Oh hell no....the little ones are long past recovery I was asking about the one in my flower room. Nothing is ever over watered here...I let them dry out & neglect more often or mix up feed water cycles so they get under or over fed but I quit doing more than 1 plant at a time.......I can't seem to keep it straight from one room to another sometimes.......I'll have a plan water T1water T1water T1,......feed T2 feed T2.....Fk fed ID 2 water T1 water T1 Fk.........lol.......Its getting bad

Hey, I may have been at it longer but diagnostics is not my thing.....The led lights are different than the hps and with only 2 led grows I'm still learning the best set up....hps was easy as long as I have good air movement they can be 18" at full power with no burning. I dropped her down 1 crate about 4" and see if she looks happier. I fried my first grow, the second was good but maybe a bit small from a lower intensity, I'd like to push but not fry........

I see you @ 420...a bit restrictive over there.....fkin Canadians ..........we don't have free speech.....toe the line or pay the fine....safety first remember, What about the Children? Well monitored and censored no talking about products or companies that don't sponsor...no links to those companies like Amazon or Spiderfarmer...ect....no off site communications between members, no swapping seeds, clones or anything......

As soon as I see the leaves pointing down I think to much H2o...seen so many threads I'm brainwashed lmao...you always figure it out one way or another you do. I cooked a bunch, now I know way more but I'm still gun shy a bit. It's hard with uneven canopy though to not have some degradation.

I'm regged most places that talk about weed. I'm not one for asking questions so I'm all over the place reading & researching whatever I'm looking for at the moment. Plus a change from here doesn't hurt for a minute. The folks over at four twenty are a different bunch for sure. I get a weekly digest from them and saw a post about an old Canadian so you know....I had to see what was up Quite the pony show there (i'm being nice) but there's some real good info I've found the last few years.

March 8 flattened my Bubble Bomb and adjusted to light level to 100% 20" from the canopy I get 41,000lux inn the hot spots & 35,000 on the edges.

I pulled out my Interstate Dragon, Jamaican Purple Haze & 2 unsexed Tangie 99...for pics, trim, bend & top dress 1 tsp of lime as a preventive measure. My soil tends to work its way south with ph and if I don't it gets down in the 5.5 range by weeks 7 - 8 in veg
