I use 3 of those exact bulbs. They work great, and actually put out a little less heat than my 400w MH did in the same sockets. They are a great buy at 35$ per, and worth every penny.

There are a couple of different strains that do this regularly. My last run with champagne had 1 leafers all the way into 3 weeks flowering. As far as veg, it had leaves like that at 4' tall.

Before I was using Cutting Edge Solutions 3 part, GH floranova organic enhancer, Botanicare Silica Blast. My local store stopped carrying the CES 3 part, so I switched to the GH Flora 3 part.

15 plant medical ebb/grow system. 55 gallon res. 3 weeks into flower. Decided to try a different nutrient brand this time, and my ladies have both calcium and magnesium deficiencies. Normally I would just go out and buy some cal/mag, but that's a little difficult when you are flat broke...

Kannabis you probably want to make your own topic instead of hijacking others. Not trying to criticize but you are much more likely to get help that way.

A few questions so we can help you narrow down your options- -What is your approximate budget for the setup? -What gear do you already have? -How much regular system maintenance are you willing / have the time to do? -In order to determine energy cost grab one of your electric bills and...

As far as the Sativa/Indica question it's really hard to be certain. The longer it takes to flower, the more Sativa she's got in her. Sorry it took me so long to get back to you, I've been out of town for a few weeks.

Ok so you have 311 true watts of light running. How many plants? And what size pots are you using right now? As far as switching the lights out, once we know how many plants you have then we can figure out if you can afford to lose the lumens by switching bulbs. Generally (but not always)...

The reason the branches farther away are getting long quicker is that they are stretching toward the light. A good way to keep this under wraps is to rotate the plant every couple of days. The ladies like it when they get even light. To answer some of your questions- Yes, mylar is...

WAIT don't FIM her! The point of FIMing is to gain multiple tops. Basically you stunt the growth on purpose to let the lower veg beef up. If you already have a few tops, you're golden. FIMing the plant will just make it so you have to veg for longer. I always FIM my plants, so it's not that...

Rooting hormones (powder or gel) will increase your % of success with cloning. Roots grow towards heat, so a heating pad will make a big difference as well. They really shouldn't be drooping that much though, i have a feeling that they were overwatered. Make sure there is no standing water on...

If you aren't medical growing outside is always a huge risk. The best way to avoid notice is to grow it "vine" style, where you keep staking it down to the ground and dont let it get above a couple of feet tall.

Well to tell exactly when is difficult without a microscope, but there are tricks you can do. To start though, you should know that the less light you have, the longer it takes for your medicine to mature. We are still looking at mostly flowers here. Those flowers will swell into buds, and...

Different strains will respond differently to every cycle. My Auroras and my Skunks love 24/0, but my White Russians start looking tired after 18 hours. To figure out what works best with your strain, start with 18/6 and increase the light cycle an hour per day. Go into the room just before...

^^^ He was only a couple of days into flower, it was nute burn for sure. It could be linked to overwatering if you are using that time release fert soil. Pruning or not really just becomes an aesthetics question, as you probably wont see a difference in growth either way. I usually take crappy...
