Hey Farmer. I used to lower the light schedual by 1 hour a day when I sarted and it dosnt make it faster. Till they get around 12/12 they wont start budding; thats their nature :(

hey there, ive had it in flowering for 3-4 weeks now i shifted from 18 straight to 12 but now after a few weeks flowering ive moved it to 11/13 , next week10/14 then 9/15 down to the last week at 8 hours light. this should hurry flowering a bit im sure (making the plant ferocious for a male and produce as much as it can before its too late)maybe slightly less yield but not much. and i save on electricity.
cheers.

not too bad just had to accept that it was gonna be more expensive so i got energy saving lights throughout, turnd one heater off and its probibaly about normal(almost) with a bit of energy saving forethought.
i got rid of some fan leaves today to let some more light to the smaller buds underneath.

hey guys i just posted some new fone pics i am using a new invention its called the "Compact disc light enhancer and distributer" lol i thought as the plants were getting much fatter that less light will get around it so i devised this cheap way of making it a wee bit better. check it out.
next week gonna switch to 8 hours light for the finnish, ive just started with straight fresh water and turned it down to 10 hours(thursday)
there looking good, i o-d'd a bit with ferts but water will make it right again.

hey there. the beasties only come out when i water them, they kinda float about, then when the water disapears they wriggle under the soil. and now theres millions of em, dont seem to be on leaves and no damage as yet so not too worried, but if i knew what they were it would make me much happier. im closing in on the harvest though shouldnt be too long now.
cheers again.

Go buy some gnatrol. It will kill everything in your soil. Then use Neem Oil religiously as a soil drench and foliar spray every 10 days. Hit all your soil grows to kill everything off. Spraying neem only works when used over several weeks to break the bugs life cycle so this late in the game, Neem oil is useless.

well actually its been the last ten days 3 times now lol i stopped nutes when i od'd and its had just water since, i have now stopped water as it wasnt drinking very much and a tiny bit of mold started on the bottom smaller leaves so i chopped them and now gonna let them dry out.
