Lighting Noob asking for advice

she was already dead, (dried out) i think due to transplanting, btw without those fans they would get toasted anyway :fire:. In the meantime i had to visit my family and i wasn't at home. Maybe they needed more water, more love swh Transplanting was a bad idea too, but i could not keep cool :doh:. Since it is still 30C+ here, there was no way to get the temps down in my ex-reservoir. Well, like said, i learned things. It is a nasty feeling, but fittest of survive anyhow and Idiocracy has no limits hehe...


Anyway, 2 photoperiod seeds are in towel, nicely germinating.

you can check 2 seedlings here: IMG_20160914_105327.jpg IMG_20160914_105433.jpg IMG_20160914_105335.jpgIMG_20160914_105546.jpg IMG_20160914_105606.jpg right one looks very healthy, i hope left one will survive too :)

9 liter coco coir, 4 x 55 watt 20000 lumens 6500k for 2 seedlings. what a waste of energy :)
 
Hi guys,

My girls have survived!! Wow!! I am proud of me :) left one evolved herself somehow to a 4 kolas monstee (i didnt do anything) and i saw the oportunity and started with lst. Right one is happy too. My R/O filtering ok now, owning a ph pen, ph stabilizator, voodoo juice and b52 now. Diyed a gravity drip watering system. Some results:)

The bubbles ain't my thing. I'm a drip kinda guy. If the high temps are a temporary thing (if you are in northern Europe, they are!) Keep on with the frozen bottles till the weather breaks.

I did see somewhere a cheap reservoir cooler that's was an old fridge with a coiled up hose pipe in it ,with a pump running it around the reservoir.

Check out other hydro systems, you can make some yourself if cash flow is a problem (you have a fat tv to replace after all).

Oh, and I'm glad there was no kids or animals that were involved in your break up, it may not seem it, but it could've been a lot worse.

Here's a tip, make sure your next woman smokes more than you, actually, witchy is single.

@IndicaIVoz im good, bro, you said that in more scientific manner and i totally respect that.

About lemon acid (it was metioned here) - do not use it! Fungi just loves that.
What would you use instead? I've been considering going organic and making my own stuff for my plants. I've always heard of lemon for ph, never used it myself. What would you recommend?

They may suprise you and pull through.

Some of them look like they've got water/nute splash damage and the fans blowing that close across them may be compounding this.

I have a tendency to cook little seedlings, they normally bounce back but it puts my grows back a couple of weeks. Don't kill these just yet.

Yeah, and photos can take a beating! [emoji106]

I'd turn those fans upwards, blowing into the lights, not the plants...

well, 2 girls are already dead. sadface.. and those 2 are my survivors.

She is flowering, isn't she?

Well,i am not interested in approaching women anymore. I just like read books and enjoy the silence when im home. Cooking, reading and maybe some wine (until i get my crops. I am smoke-free over 8 months. Hmm i think i was in Thailand last time when i smoked)

@witchyhour bro, just use regular PH- or PH+.
You can use N based one for veg and P based one for flowering.
There are also "organic friendly" ones, like GHE PH- (yellow bottle), but that is more marketing than real point.
Even if you go organic, plant still needs NPKCalMg etc... + correct PH. Just make that happen.
Lemon acid is just perfect for parasitic fungi, they thrive in that. You may easily kill your plants with this (also you may not, but risk remains). Totally not recommended..
