    Zensation advice

    About to start a second grow, this time with the Zensation strain from MOC. First attempt was with White Widow, and it came out okay despite a number of rookie mistakes. Using daylight cfls for veg and switching over to 2700Ks for flowering. So the question is, has anyone out there tried...

    How do they look...?

    Temp's about 80F at the pot tops, gets down to 65-70 in dark cycle. Good air movement. Nitrogen shouldn't be a problem, as they were well flushed a couple weeks before flowering began. One light feeding of Tiger Bloom about 10 days ago. That's about it...

    How do they look...?

    First grow, two feminized white widows. Made just about every rookie mistake imaginable along the way, but they're now two weeks into 12/12 and it looks like things are coming along nicely. But I wouldn't mind, and would in fact greatly appreciate, a second opinion from those more knowledgeable...

    Flowering nutes?

    Got two feminized white widows about four days into the 12/12 flowering cycle, and planning to fertilize with Tiger Bloom once the hairs start showing. Question is, what would be the best solution strength? Bottle says between 2 and 3 tsp per gallon. That about right, or should I use a weaker...

    One great plant, one sick - Vat giffs?

    Got two feminized white widows going, one doing great and another in ICU. Same medium and nutrients, same lighting, both in sterilized containers. I just flushed the weak sister and now I'm wondering what the problem is, and if there's any hope of rehabbing her. Any ideas, people...?

    Good growth?

    After a few weeks of tweaking lights, soil, pots and nutrients I think I have a decent environment for my three feminized white widow plants. Each young'un is surrounded by at least 100 true watts worth of cfls about two inches away. Soil ph is slightly alkaline (about 7.5). The one plant I'm...

    Question about bone meal

    I just transplanted this young'un into a larger tub of nutriated soil, and was wondering if this would be a good time to slip her a little bone meal to help kick-start some big-time rooting. I was thinking of using about a half-tsp of the stuff mixed with some soil and making a kind of slurry to...

    Transplant: Does she look okay

    Abiout four hours ago I transferred this young'un from a six-inch pot into a nice roomy tub. I figured she might get the droops, which she did, but not as bad I thought it would be. So, based on the photo, does it look like she'll be able to rally completely and settle into her new digs, or is...

    Leaf question

    I have three feminized white widow plants going, each of which seems to have a different personality or temperament. After about a month of tweaking lights and soil it looks like I finally have something that works. Photos 1 & 2 show plants that have been going since early January (yeah I know...

    Water and feed questions

    First time out, small cabinet CFL operation, three plants, two rehabbing, one beginning to take off, and that's what we're about here. Good news is that the lady in question has made good progress in a week (photo 1, 1/19 - photo 2, 1/25). She's in a 6" pot with a soil, peat and perlite mix, and...

    Can she be saved?

    I have a small cabinet CFL operation going, with two seedlings that weren't developing nearly as much as they should be. Made all the rookie mistakes, been on the forum a couple times, learning as I go. Tweaked my lights and soil, switched from the evil Miracle Gro to Fox Farm Grow Big. I now...

    PH questions

    I have four 26W daylight and a 40 W daylight arrayed around two plants, with a couple other 26s above the array...

    PH questions

    I have a couple of feminized white widow seedlings going in 6" pots under a CFL array, but they're coming slowly. I've trouble-shot light and heat issues and aerated the soil a bit more, and the last go-round in this forum suggested maybe some PH issues. I have one that's in the low 6s, and one...

    Still troubleshooting

    Thought I'd post another more timely thread, due to their relatively short shelf life. I've started a small indoor CFL cabinet with two feminized white widow plants. They've been up for about a month, and the feedback I've received so far is that they should be much further along than they are...

    Troubleshooting

    .................................... Thanks for your reply. I've tried to provide better pix. Hope they're adequate. Green pot is a loam, peat moss, perlite mix, 4 to 1 to 1, with no intrinsic nutrients. Earth pot is a commercial mix, Sta-Green, with a 14-11-8 NPK formula. I'm using a...
