sorry to all the peeps that love soft porn but we dont have any pics as of yet.

right so i'll try remember what we did from day one.

were using a 15l air pot i think, using advanced nutes jungle juice, used one veg ecolight for the seedling stage then switched to two 125 flower ecolights, using growpower fan to create circulation. and at first we were doing 20/4 light schedule but now its coming to the end weve changed it to 18/6.

feeding shedule goes as this
14/8 planted and splashed about 200ml of ph'd water
19/8 mixed 1ml M 1ml G 1ml B 2ml b-52 in 1l ph'd water fed 600 ml
24/8 mixed 1ml M 1ml G 1ml B 2ml b-52 in 800ml ph'd water and fed 600 ml
12/9 mixed 2ml M 3ml G 2ml B 2ml b-52 in 800ml fed complete mix
19/9 ditto 27/9 ditto 2/10 ditto
6/10 mixed 3ml M 1ml G 4ml B 2ml b-52 in 1l ph'd water fed all
11/10 ditto 16/10 ditto plus a little bit of sugar 21/10 ditto


so now you all are up to date and we should have a good camera so we can take some soft porn pics

we have a question for you folks here its a bit of a noob question and ive read the plant cycle but just to make sure, do we wait untill all the main leave go yellow before flushing or is it when the start to ?
asap help needed

much love Krazy

Good look with the grow bro. Have you looked at the trichome maturity? Some go by the leaves but I prefer to watch the trichomes....I start to flush when I have 10-20% Amber.

o right, our jewlers loupe isnt very good but i can say most of the hairs on the top cola are amber / orange but the rest are still turning, and ive been told that if i prefer a couch lock to leave it a lil longer cos tbh i dont like up high or what ever you call it

right so heres a pic update but like i said we havnt got a good camera so sorry ahead of time lol

Krazy!

I've had a peek through the thread!
Don't worry about those bottom leaves yellowing, you're close to the finish line now!

I think you've done well to get to a harvest.

On your next grow we can definately offer some advice which will hopefully get you a few more buds on your plants!
I think the light is not quite enough - to be as effective as it can be, that kind of CFL should be hung horizontal and if possible in a reflecter. You lose a lot of efficiency when you hang it verticle like that.

Also light reflective walls will help - like flat white or mylar.

Should be a great smoke though! Good ole DP! :

 

[krazylicous]

hey brother thanks for passing through, shall i give another feed of nutes or start a flush ?

thanks me too

yes please all advice is appreciated

yeh i know we got the cfls on a budget, and was told the reflecter doesnt really do much so since on budget thought sod it, plus theres 1 hanging above and one hanging beside it so thought that was giving it plenty
edit: also were thinking of getting the new grownorthern led when it comes out

yeh had thought about mylar but the inside is white so nearly as good right ?

yeh fingers crossed hey

much love Krazy

Yes Yes Yes - I will eat my hat if that choice doesn't make your plants go BOOM!

Needs to be flat white - not gloss but yeah, i've had both. Currently white and working a treat!

shall i give another feed of nutes or start a flush ?

It's your choice that's whats great about growing your own, you are the master of your weeds destiny!

But really - that loupe should give you a good indication of clear cloudy or amber.
As (awesome) TaNg advised above - look at the trichs and start the flush at 10-20% amber - you'll be happy with those results!

 

[krazylicous]

oright i thought you said if i want a couch lock i should wait till more leaves turn yellow?
but if its a case of lookin at trichs rather than leaves i should prob start fluching next feed, and just to confirm do i flush doing two feeds or more ?

edit: ha ha ha i'll hold you to eating your hat

By the time i get to cleanse (final flushing) i am watering every 2 days. I usually cleanse for around 10 days so for me that's 5 waterings for me!

 

[krazylicous]
