Hydro Closet Grow

[silentstoner]

heres an update on the 5th week of flower. almost there.
have to run the hydro store pretty soon for some more nutrients. I'm all out. any suggestions on if it would be a good or bad idea to switch the nutrients to a new brand? im on Dyna-Gro (Bloom)
and i want to go to General Hydroponics.
advice?

i didnt end up switching them out. I ended up buying a quart of the DYNA-GRO Bloom.. i didnt really want to but it was the only size there was and i was completely out of nutes

im surprised i have this much bud for only having 150W HPS plus the two 42W CFL's.

going to be flushing out the water next week and counting down to harvest.

looking good. leaves are starting to yellow. I just flushed out the system on sunday so theres clean ph balanced water right now for the next 2 weeks till i harvest. I can tell that the buds keep putting on weight if I dont pay attention for a couple days at a time. temps are staying a consistant 80.8 F and water at 67.8 F and humidity at 36%. PH is at 6.0ish. I'm getting anxious and I can't wait to enjoy the fruits of my labor.

Then I'll most likely be starting my next grow right after with some clones i'm getting from a friend. but im moving up to 400W HPS. Ill start a new journal for that one the time comes.

As of right now im on the fence about what i'd rather do with my clippings:
Hash or Cannabutter?

any suggestions?

whoops.. so I was in the grow room right now and it was past the time when the timer for the lights should have been shut off and I couldn't figure out why. turns out either yesterday or the day before I had gone into the room like 15mins before it was lights on and turned the timer switch to "ON" so I could start working on some stuff and I must of forgot to switch it back once it was regular light time.. so the lights were on for at least 24-48 hours... How bad is this in very late flower? Im harvesting in a day or two anyway so I didn't think it was that catastrophic but will it affect flavor or potency or anything really at all?

the plant really only cares about the dark cycle being 12 hrs. you can do a 24/12 cycle, and infact some people do to maximize yield. shouldnt be and ill efects.
