mheat Hi, I am trying this really simple, so many times trying and never getting far. I tried bubbler, rockwool, coco coir...nothing has worked for me except peat pods. I am growing in a 4X2X68, 300 watt LED. So far only water with light nutrients, 150 to 200 ppm. I have tried so.many times over the summer, hoping to see these babies bud up by my birthday! Any suggestions are welcome and needed. They are still peat pellet with some offbrand organic soil. About to put in 3lb fabric pot.

mheat I am using Black Gold potting mix .13-.004-.13. Scared to use nutes, have just been watering, cal mag and plant food. Bothe plants are small and I am ok with that. Just don't want to start from scratch again without going all the way possible. My runoff pH is 6.5 to 7. Varies. I have a little over a month with the FB strain...smells like something will happen. Also, the grapefruit has burnt looking ends andis not so green.

Rezdestroyer commentedweek 27y ago

Do you have another seed? If so, toss that one and start over. Ditch the nutes for now. Raise the light up. Like 25"-30". Try and get the temp a little lower if possible. It says your using 300 w led. She looks a little stretchy for that. I'm guessing your using a CFL light currently. Trust me. Your better of starting over. Your yields we be much better if you do. Good luck.

mheat commented7y ago

@Rezdestroyer, I am currently using a 300 watt LED...no CFL. Which one should I toss or both? How do I get temp down?

likes

Rezdestroyer commented7y ago

@mheat, I only saw the one plant but I would toss both if they look about the same. The heat is not as important at 83 degrees. You should first focus on keeping your girls short and compact. What soil are you using and how's the drainage? Your planning on transfering once ?
