This post is a follow up to the painted blacck post of ten days ago. MYOB. KINDNUG and OoSOuPoO. You all were very helapfull. Your remarks all proved to be very accurate. I went back to the grow and spent some time looking and thinking. I did find a couple nanners, very small, but they were there. I didn't see anything that indicated seed, Yet.( Inexpieriance acknowlaged.) The nutes were too strong for these plants. You all hit that. I comitted the sin of swapping horses mid stream. I was useing G>H> and tried Sensi Bloom For a feeding. It mixed about 25% stronger than the G.H. and was too much. Another big Issue was the heat. I have a low overhead in my room and they were simply cooking. So after some thought.I decided to fix what I could and keep going. I know some of you don't like the idea of flushing agents but I had some clearing kicking around. So after turning off the co2 and draining and rinseing the res,I mixed a batch of the clearing flush, PH to 5.3 as per instructions and let it go for 48 hrs.Then I ran just water for24. I went to the store and bought an active air 6" in-line fan and all nessary eqipment. I hooked it up correctly, outside air through the two lights and vented to out side. Then I drained the res. Mixed up some G.H. with additives to about 925. PH to 5.8 Filled the res and turned the co2 back on. The lights are running very cool. I do have alot of condensation on the flexible vent from entry to the first light. I ran the vent so the water dosen't run to the light. Please let me know if any danger may arise from running 30`f air through the lights. New growth was evident almost imediatly. I will watch for a while and see what happens. Most of all, Thank you guys for your help. This isn't the first time OoSOuPoO has taken the time to help guide me through an issue.Best of all I walk away hopfully learning something. Thank you very much.
