Switching back to CFL

It could be to do with the root damage iv caused, but iv noticed no height growth when using all LED, yet when the plants where under CFL i could see the growth overnight... So iv had to be creative...again and find a way to hang the light socket firmly, as the straps offered with the tent just swing about and the light doesnt point downwards.... So using the straps iv used a photography post diagnally and cable tied the light socket. The socket is a photography lamp, which is just a normal ligh

Theres hope

Despite just publishing my last review, i actually wrote it two nights ago and forgot to publish it ..   so in a little more detail this is what happened. My plants had shown no sign of growing at all, and despite my PH being fine during feeds, some leaves were getting dark splotches which according to a chart i found online, says PH flunctuations. So i peeped behind the foil, and it was ALL green, my clearish containers where now dark green all the way from top to bottom. i Knew i should of pla

sad day,lesson learnt-use black pots

tried to transplant my plants to a bigger pot, as they havent had any growth for a week, and were starting to turn yellow despite correct levels of nutes, PH, temp etc - despite covering the clear pots with foil to block the light, it simply wasnt enough to kill the algae that had taken over, and im sure the algae was thriving on the nutrients, instead of the plant itself.   due to the clear containers having drilled holes, the roots had poked through and then formed root balls out side the pot,

sick plants

I got a little concerned regarding the rockwool, as i selected a rockwool size which was to big, and in turn it prevented me from ever being able to feed my plants as the rockwool takes ages to dry out, and if i added to many nutrients it was harder to flush, so i took a VERY crazy risk. and gently tried to remove as much rockwool from the sides and base. I tried to avoid as many roots as possible but i did hear a couple "ripping". as i pulled the rockwool appart.   As soon as i had pulled the r

LED light

Slightly unsure whether to be using the LED light yet, i noticed it gives out alot of red tones, and very minimal blues, and apparently the cooler day light is what i wantt during the veg process. After the one night under LED its hard to yet know if its a suitable option JUST YET, as there was no visible growth from the appearance, where as usually the CFL i see the growth on a daily basis, however i did JUST transport them to their new "longer pots" so perhaps the disturbance is the reason for

Moving on up

After some good advice it was apparent that my new seedlings would take off after being transfered to larger pots. I had all the rockwool cubes in a square container, resting ontop of canna coco and clay pebbles, and i noticed the roots making their way into the medium within a few hours of me placing the rockwool cubes on top so oviously i needed to pot them quickly. Our cupboards are full of tupperware and i have a plastic container set which has 30 peices of each container, and figured well i

Living up to my Social Stigma

Unfortunately i have lived up to my social stigma and have been a dumb blonde. I am sadly so out of touch i still haven’t made it past the seedling phase of 4 strains. The first two however - the ones which i soaked in the Plant Estrogen are doing great. Its the other four that i planted afterwards which im having issues with, and possibly due to the fact im a dumbass. As its my first ever grow of any plant, i liked watching the daily progress, and i suppose i got a little carried away with dist

Two sprouts

I know i said my next post will be on what i learnt about nutrients, but instead of babbling, if their are any other people out there who were in my place (pretty much knowing nothing AT ALL about growing ANY kinds of plants, never mind hydro) then ill include some links down the bottom to some articles/reports/threads that i found really helpful when it comes to explaining thing for a newbie   Anyway, i germinated two seeds - the ones i got as freebies from marijuanna-seeds.nl, im still unsure

Bl0nd3s Mean Green

Since this is a Blog/Glog/Diary i thought i would start where everyone starts, and thats with obtaining the knowledge and information needed to start growing. I'll start my Growing in my next Glob entry (feel free to skip to the next entry As this one will just be ramberling some weird and wonderfull shit iv learnt in the last few weeks which was probably common sense to everyone else)   So pretty much to the point, i want to grow weed, not only for myself to assist with relaxtion at the end of
