on the more general topic; my shit hit 91 today in the dark, does not seem to be negatively effected.

^something with More P and K and little N 2-8-4 is what tiger bloom is at. try a 10 50 30 or something if you are using chepo nutes

Im guessing you live in Cali? lol. my temp hit 90 today also.
I just increased wattage tonight, from 175 to 225watts.
I can afford nutes, I have money now,
I just dont know what to get...
I think Im changing the lights tomorrow.
Gonna start flowering. Im not sure how far outward the growth is going to go.
lol.

And as for temps hitting 90 today, I noticed no negative effects.

sounds like you should be buying online. PM me if you need some cheap shops, that occasionally offer free shipping. If you find good deals, you can get a $2000 room for $700... you just need nutes and a light... vent can come from lowes/ home de pot

get the fox farm trio, its the boss

OR

contact general hydro, tell them you love their products and that you would like to try samples of their organics; they will send you the whole line for 60 bucks shipping, or you could have them send it to the hydro shop near you, like i did, and pick them up for free!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i just got them today and i stokkkkkked.
8 quarts of nutes free of charge
 
Shipping sounds like the way to go for your Prelude.

Has it shown sex yet? she/he is looking very nice :)
 
Buying the bulbs to flower today.
Had them set up, but two went out( they were pretty old anyways()

Im going to be having about 225watts of CFL for flowering, should I mix the spectrums of llight, or just have straight soft white light all across.

As for nutes, Im gonna go see if they have dynagrow still , the blooming type anyways, The closest place that has Fox Farms items are about 1 1/2 hours away.
As with the rest of the hydro shops .
Which is why I have such problems getting the stuff.

What kinda bulb's ya buying? which spectrums?
 
Bought soft white cfls. same as I had, 2 just burned out.
so I bought more, and more outlets, so, 225 watts now , I have nine, 26 watt, soft whites for flowering, was using 200watts daylight for vegging, this is the right way correct? Should I mix the spectrum, or just have solid soft white

I just bought 0-10-10 Alaska MorBloom
Will that work until I can get something better? or is that bad?
250 watts. Soft White. Started 12/12 today.
Should I use these nutes tomorrow? or stop using nutes for a week and use just water, then switch to using these nutes, do I just nute as often as I did while vegging?
 
yeah and hes not even fullly flowering yet, the plants continue to veg even though the lights have changed.

if you use that stuff without some extra N you will have a N def before your plant is done.

try looking into making bat/seabird guano/wormcastings tea
 
Well, Ive got a 10-10-10, and 0-10-10. and a 30-10-10, Could I mix the 10-10-10 with the 0-10-10 and make 10-20-20? would that be alright?

As for now , Im just using what Ive been using for vegging...
and I just cut to clones, shaved the bottom in water, put them in rooting powder, then got 2 cups, put soil in them , poked a hole with my finger, and put the cuttings in the hole .
That sound about Right?
Right now Ive got them about 12 inches from the lights. ones in a see thru plastic container, and one is in a red cup.(plasic)
 
I'd amend your current feeding regimen by slightly dropping my veg fert, whatever it is you're using with N, and slightly more than your reduced of the MorBloom or whatever it is you have. But wait, this is in Miracle Grow soil, iirc.... so you shouldn't have to add any N if that's the case.

As far as mixing concentrates, don't do it, if thats what you meant. You can cause reactions that'll lock out your nutes, dilute with water first....
 
Well, it still hasn't shown sex, those little 'balls' I've seen since I've started, and they just turn out to be more leaves.
day 2 of flowering, im going to try to get some pics in tonight, but , I still don't see anything, I cut two clones, both of them seem to be doing fine. they aren't droopy, they only were for an hour or so, then came back up.

as for mixing nutes,
I never use the full suggested ammount, maybe 1/3 or 1/4 of that.
As for mixing nutes, I was just thinking, I could have a 10-20-20 if I mixed a little of these two that I do have, other than that, all of the nutes I find dont have a highter P and K than they do N, seems all nutes Ive checked all have very high N, and low P, and K.

Would mixing a 0-10-10 and a 10-10-10 make 10-20-20, or should I just go buy something else, None of the stores have it here, and Im waiting on a shipment to come in.

And I always dilute with water, Id rather under nute than over nute, as I can keep adding them, but I cant take em back, and flushing the pot with water doesnt sound entertaining or easy on the plant.

But yeah, hopefully this thing will show its sex soon, and Ill know what to do:P
 
Now your making me think I have a male...
God I hope this isnt a male...
as for the soil I have, its not miracle grow, just regular soil, mixed with miracle grow peat moss30%, and miracle grow perlite,30%

Come to look at it, that pic that you think you saw balls, pap,, Im pretty sure thats the pointy part of the plant near the area on the branch/stem on where it usually shows sex, those weren't balls, I do have some little parts coming in now, but I can't tell what they are, hell, probably another set of leaves.

I hoped you're right little bro.....I'm certainly rooting for you....pun intended.....LOL


the clones.....keep misting them with a spray bottle...mist, mist, mist....that's the only way they can get any water....they don't have roots, after all......if it wasn't for the fact that plants can absorb water throught their leaves, you wouldn't be able to clone them at all......mist, mist, mist.....and a humidity dome that can cover the clones to keep in the humidity will go a long way also....
