    I can't believe you went from RTW to re-circ without letting me know?! Who would have ever thought I'd see the day! Haha

    Hey guys. Been some major swings in the real world this last week. The headband and critical came down about 2 days ago and the super silver went to a mate. Had to cut most of my stuff out. Still running the 600w perlite system, but only on 9 hours light so it'll end up being flower from clone...

    Entirely up to you man, I've seen it work well but I've also seen it stunt growth if done too early

    As close as comfortable

    Correct me if I'm wrong. But that's a long way away for a 250? A 600 is about 8-9 inches? I'd try lowering it to 4-5 and just hold your hand under the light for about a minute at the top of your plant. Rule of thumb is that if the back of your hand can take it comfortably, so can your plant...

    For sure. On fans, eBay have some good ones around the $50 mark. 6" 246ish cfm I believe. How far away from the top of your girl is your light atm?

    Looks good man. Talk me through your setup? Lights, tent, fans, odour control etc. also, Have you done any sort of training on her? Like last or topping? Also, what strain is she?

    Dude that sounds wicked! I'm using a 200l barrel as a res, how did you sort out your 'brain' for the recirculating system? Sorry to hear about the rot aswell :(

    A ph pen is a must! And don't forget your calibration kit aswell! And try to avoid the cheap ones also. I went through 4 $10 ones before I bought a $30 one and it's already lasted longer than all the others combined! Haha

    I can't see any issues with small amounts of slow release man. But I haven't really done any research into it either. I can only guess that too much would just lock out other stuff like a salt build up?

    Thanks for the chart again DN. Yea that's it! Just hope the ph hasn't shocked her! It could delay things for a few days if it was a down like 3-4

    That's 'the claw' give her some fluids and you'll see her come out of it soon enough. But yea. Clawing is bad and if you don't sort it out quickly, you could burn your leaves (transpiring helps keep them cool and no water = low to no transpiration) Leaf tips bending down = too dry. Haha.. Flush...
