Ghetto grow 101

Ello,I was a member of Natureshigh.Com but the sight was closed,with along Overgrow and more Favored sights.But I stayed in the shadow's for a while, N now Im back..Still I have a lot to learn n Hope to enjoy this grow very much..

For Lighting I am using a 400mh. Temps are around 70-78 @ times..1 12"fan blowing on the light/plants,1 12" fan Blowing out into the attic.. Space is um..3ft width 4ft high..

Right now their under 18/6 and are 8-12 days old.. Bagseed but really good seeds...8 Plants...Growing well..Soil...Is Topsoil n Cow manure..When I transplant into my 12" pots when flowering I am going to use perlite n any thing U should recommend ?
Also what are some good foods I can use for Veg ? And Flower ? I kno a little..but I want to expect the unexpected..I will show some pics in a few weeks..Have A nice Day !

That all sounds good bro, as for nutes really deppends what u can get ur hands on as long as u keep the N-P-K ratios right for each cycle...and yes post some pics (an image is worth a thousand words)...Peace and Pot

Fox Farm Grow Big & Big Bloom.

Ok.... I water every 4 days.. Not using anything right now..Just top-soil n cow manure..I think the cow manure is what burning the plants..

Should I just wait it out ? or Should I transplant them into bigger containers without the manure or not so much of the cow manure ?? They seem to be doing ok..But what do you think..

Sorry for the pics to be so blurry..

thats pretty much what my plants look like what are causing the yellow spots someone with good experience

will someone see what you think about those pics he put up i cant get a digital camera and thats kinda the yellowing my leaves are doing not bad just alil

Ok.. I think its burn..my ph level might be to high..Ima let them continue growing in then transplant with normal potting soil/perlite mix.. I hope I wont be Fluckin it up ? By waiting..ill go up to my local garden shop..Get ph up or down..With ph testers..

That´s the sign that u need to go easy on the nutes (cow manure), when u mixed the manure in the soil u prolly add to much now the plants are complaining...if the prob persists in the new growth and u come to a point that u dont see any improvements u can flush ur plants with pH water around 6.2 - 6.3 about 1 to 1 1/2 times of water the capacity of the pot....after flushing u can continue just watering normaly or u can get some nutes and add nutes to your water in a very low solution (about 1/4 of the recomended dosage...

Yep...Either today or tomarrow I will flush... Then I will start out with a low concentration of nutes..Fox farm that is..I'll keep an update on things..See ya in a few dayz..

How's everyone ..Lady's gentlemen..Well I flushed my plant the other day..N heres The before n after shot..Only 3 days apart...

1st pic is the old pic..
2nd pic is 3 days later..

Hey..Heres a group shot..Also..I just got a 150mh light..With protective glass.The question is..I have a 400mh light and it sits about 1.5ft off from ground up..Having a 150mh near will the light get canceled out from lack of sprectrum..Also How far away can it be from the plants..Side Angle though..400 is at top 150 on sides..

you i don't think light ever gets canceled out. I believe the only way for light to disipate is if it is absorbed or reflected. perfect example is when the sun hits our soil and when the sun is reflected off the ozone.

Ah..Just throught since the light was so low it wouldnt make a dif around the 400 watt..Thx..Ima plug it up. .

Been a while since I've updated..Will give pics soon..I've transplanted about 2-3 weeks ago..Kept the strongest 4...2 are females and are looking beautiful and the other 2 are still unconclusive.I topped 1 just for the hell of it..Seems to be growing just fine now..Went to lowes a couple weeks back and bought some plant food..No miricle grow..Will post pics soon..Have till the 15th to switch into Flowering..Cant wait..

Time to Flower

This plant is 35 dayz old..Secondary growth is forming ..Using better gro food and when buds start to form I will switch to Better grow Bloom booster..Switchd the lighting to 12/12 ..This 1 is a female..For sure..

If you're using MH, it's usually not a ghetto grow. From looking at the pictures, you chemically burned your plants. I would use straight water after your flush for a couple-three weeks.

Well heres update..N Yea I kno..Already started..A while bac..this is the most rescent ones..takin today..2 day into flowerin..

looking better than before at least. Good luck

Quick update...7th day of flowering..Stretching..But thats normal..2 are currently females..Quick question..When do you use flowering nutes..Im waiting till bud sight formation ? When do you stop ?
