    Colorado Outdoor growing question

    Thanks for the replies. I'll switch over to flowering nutes. I have several oz's left from my winter grow so I'm not too concerned with yield and would rather save the electricity costs I think and just see where the sun takes them. I'm not overly concerned with yield or quality as I literally...

    Can lights be too close for optimal coverage/penetration?

    I just moved my 400W HPS a few inches above the canopy and I feel like I get better coverage. I have a cool tube and have been running the light literally inches off of the top of the canopy with the plants directly under the light. However, I feel like the buds at the edges of the reflector...

    pics of indica / sativa difference

    I got 4 seeds from a friend, unknown strains just seeds aquired over time from good buds with random seeds. All germinated and turned out to be female! They were all grown with the same schedule and nutes...everything exact. I believe 2 to be indica and 2 sativa. The indicas flowered much faster...

    New Growth Twisting and Edges of Leaves Curling???

    Some people say praying is fine, but I know when I moved my light a couple inches and added the heat shield, they opened up from that praying position.

    Anyone know what this is

    The plant looks like it has plenty of leaves from your picture. I would say better than letting them spread. How many nodes to you have? 5 main fans might not be an issue if you have secondary leaves developed

    How often do you check your grow?

    Just wondering how often everyone checks on their grow. Personally I look at it like 2-3 times a day. Very few days it will only be once.

    Possible heat stress?

    Ph of runoff is between 6 and 7. Have a wal mart aquarium ph test kit where you put the drops in the vial.

    Possible heat stress?

    Yes on top there is a slotted vent on top: And then the box on top in my picture is an additional cooling attachment that has a fan inside it, pulling air through the vent and blowing it up through the ducting. There is a big vent on the front in front of the bulb that the air is drawn in...

    Possible heat stress?

    Thanks. And Slipon, I think I'll put the glass on right now before the light turns back on. haha. Also, are you saying that reaching for the light like that, but not stretching, just means you have plenty of light? Didn't really know if the lens was required, but I guess so. Wanted to wait...

    It smells like weed in here!

    Yeah my plants are actually starting to smell a little, but not like weed. When I get home from work I can definitely smell a new scent in the house, but it isn't weed. It more just smells like plants. As if I had an attached greenhouse lol

    Possible heat stress?

    So I don't ever post in this forum (plant problems). Usually I just ride it out and let them grow. After all, they are weeds right? :) However, I just upgraded to a 400 watt MH/HPS and really want to do this grow the best I've ever done. I want them growing as perfect as possible the whole way...

    Is this a N deficiency?

    I think they look great. Leave them be for now. If the entire leaves start yellowing there may be a problem but for now just keep on cruisin

    Shit. I broke my friends bong yesterday night

    You're all over 21....why don't you get your own place and not have to worry about mom coming in the room? Or don't smoke at your friends houses who have parents that aren't cool with it. On another note, who carries their $200 22" bong around with them? My bong doesn't leave my house ever...

    2x2x5 w 600w hps

    There needs to be more recognition for those growing in tit spaces with high wattage lights. Yes, it probably shouldn't be done, especially not if you are a beginner. However, it is of course possible. I just got my 400 to upgrade from a 150 and ill be using a 25"x20" space. Right now I'm not...
