tip de jour.. plan on spending more money than you originally budgeted. this aint a cheap hobby and things have a way of not going as far as you planned... specially when your first (or third) plan doesnt work out and you have to redo it.

even the best plan can go to shit in a hurry ;)

A tip for the day... The day after watering... Stir the dirt or soil up in the pot... "just about the top 1/4-1/2 inch... This will stop the pests from getting hold, most egg are layed here', and it makes yur pic's more purty! Db.~tlb! :)

also helps to aerate the soil too... but you gotta be careful that you arent tearing up roots.

Hello all its been a while since i posted anything up here. I was on my first grow and it was going quite well when my vent fan at the top of my rubbermaid stealth grow box went out and the entire plant shriveled up and died. booooo.... and after several attempts and failing horribly....i finally got back into it and have 3 plants growing right now.( in apt so dont have much room) I got 2 bubble gum,(picture 1 is a bubble gum) and 1 super skunk. all of which i purchased through nirvana.

Im about 1 1/2 weeks into the grow id say.... using cfls and fox farm ocean forest soil. No nutes yet. water when the soil is dry. Ive collected rainwater from outside so it was totally natural.

My question is the leaves on the super skunk are kinda like shriveling or curving (picture 2).....is this due to too much water, not enough water, too much heat or idk ,....??

anyways its good to be back ill get more pics up later of my grow space and stealth grow box and some more of my babies.

yes you need some nutes.

My tip for the day

How to raise your humidity with stuff round the house.

the water sail

i used
one towel
washing up bowl
a bottle
a coat hanger
5 litres of water

so attach the coat hanger to the top of the bottle so it looks like a T
i also filled the bottle with water to stop it floating and to make it more stable
put the bottle in the middle of the washing up bowl and drape towel over the hanger and bottle.
pore the water over the towel and then fill the bowl.

the water evaporates off the large surface area of the fluffy towel and it remains damp via capillary action. i have raised my RM from 40% to 60%.

here's a pic any way.



if you are in a small area scale it down use a handkerchief or face cloth use a bowl or cup as a res.

you know when i posted that up in my journal i got the same response,

it's surprising but it has drunk about 3 litres of water in 24 hours i put 5 litres in there so i don't think it will have time to go stagnant by tomorrow after noon, it will be near empty then i will rinse out the bowl and wash the towel in hot water
