I am here, my wardrobe is just in the spare room. I fell asleep, after too much redstripe & way too many spliffs...
I think my temps in the grow room are ok, lights on temp never higher than 30degrees, lights out temp showing 20degrees right now.
The parts i removed were only abt 5cm from the cool tube, obviously 12hrs that close aint good.

Too many spliff and red stripe? You might wanna consider soil based growing like me if you are having a case of idolitous. Hydro is non compromising, hope you learnt your lesson.. I'm trimming at the end of the week, almost time to get totally wasted. You'll still get some pretty fat nuggs off your plants if you loose the red stripe and idolitous, though keep the spliff, I'd be a hypocrite if I said loose the joint!!
I grow in a soil mix, I do not see how light burns would be changed by that, To solve the problem of being to close to the light, I raised it, then added more light. Really making a difference since I have done that
30 degrees is not that bad, kind of borderline, but I see it all the time, just keep the fresh air going in, and you should be good

There has been significant development this week. The branch which was too close to the light & suffered burns looks a lot beter..
I have now seen certain leaves showing sign of nute burn, on the tips of leaves. this is very mild & i am not worrying abt it too much. The cola which i had to cut an inch off, is coming on nicely...
Im still unsure if they are ready for overdrive in there next feed, looks likely tho. Will have a proper update sat.

Hi PC, good pic of the plants there mate, gives a better idea of what size they are.
Looks like you will have some nice length on the colas, hopefully the overdrive
them to fill those long colas out.
I wouldn't worry about that slight burn, doesn't seem bad at all. Saying that...
don't wanna divert your thread too much, but I have read that even slight nute burn
screws up a plant to a degree. I myself have never really seen real bad things
occur after small nute burn... but in theory what this dude was saying is essentially
correct. Basically he was pointing that more nutes doesn't = more bud & their is an
equilibrium which if you exceed is nothing but false econmy.
Now I would quickly like to state that I am in no way trying to say spiritlevels advice
on pushing em with nutes is not viable. Just saying that what I read made alot of
sense.... I'll se if I can dig up the post and if you don't mind I'll post it up here mate.
I think this guy maxes out at around 1.4 EC (I need to check if that includes his waters EC though). And he gets astounding results just using Ionic A&B plus a little Rhizotonic & PK13/14.
Take care peeps...

thanks for the feedback shhh... am hoping the overdrive really gives em the extra push to fill out them buds.
ur not diverting thread at all.
i agree with that, more nutes doesn't = more bud. The burn occured after increasing the EC to 2.0. Having reduced it to 1.7 no further signs are visable. With that in mind, i wouldnt go over 1.7 with this strain, as that seems to be the max in my environment. My water comes out the tap at 0.5 Ec PH 7 so always have to ph down.
Go ahead & post the link if you find it.

I wish I was on hydro, I'm jealous of the shear forest you have in that small space... It's got to be wreekin now beyond belief. how long left?
As for feedin.. different strains take up food differently so I'm not even goin to try and defend what I said about pushing your cheddar.. These current cheese, I think are doing better than their parents did according to looking at my photo album. But that could be attributed to quadruple the veg time... Either way, I know pushing these to 1.9 was the right thing to do when I did... and I will be doing it again, maybe even 2.1.

hey spiritlevel i need advice? pleeezze
hey spiritlevel i need advice? pleeezze
i am growing on FFOC soil and using PBP and i also used pirahna and tarantula and voodoo juice twice to inoculate the roots in the begining of the 12/12 switch. i am currently giving my speed queens (mostly indica from mandala) about 15 ml per gallon of pbp bloom soil and a llittle liqiud karma and big bud. i use the big bud like stated in the nute calculator i just use pbp as my base nutes.
i have the whole 2+ line with sensi grow and bloom a&b humic fulvic and b52 carbo everything you know.
when should i start to use overdrive??
they are in ocean forest they are 55 day flower plants. i heard that the use of overdrive on soil is useless and such? i dont think so as it is the 3rd step for big bud (bud blood, big bud and overdrive)
i did give my plants the bud blood erly in flower till the 2nd week, and am now using big bud. now heres the question??
i know that OVERDRIVE is used in the last weeks of flower to put on xtra grams and resin but also shouldnt the last 10 days or so be plain water with soil? so how do i haave a chance to even use my overdrive??
let me know please cause i cant get a traight answer from AN techs dept.
so tell me how to use over drive on 8 week plants that are in soil and still not get chemmy tasting buds if possible?
im sorry very much pccdrom for hijacking a little but i had no where else to turn. where all in this together so i dont think youd mind? if so my sincere apology.

id say there is 3 weeks including 1 week flush. carbon filter is on 24/7 now. I cant really smell anything as i spend so much time with the ladies. only notice the growth when i look at previous pictures.
My plants showed signs of nute burn after a day at 2.0 EC lowered EC to 1.7
im kool with the little burn i got, no where near as bad as my last grow, i do believe the extended veg time has something to do with it.
dont see a reason to defend wot u said. was god advice, as far as im concerned.

Evil_Indica I don't want to hijack pccdroms thread. I think the reason you cannot get a straight answer is because their is no straight answer.. Strains and phenos can use nutes differently and thus means someone's envisaged plans could need reworking numerous times.
I don't know anything about FFOC Soil, I don't know what PBP is either.. I just use Overdrive when I see calyx development in its early stages on the majority of the plant. For me this is a lot sooner than the final 10 days.
As I've said to pccdrom in the past, if you have a good idea what the product will do for your plants, then it will be a better indicator of when to start/stop using them.. Just picking up a bottle and tipping it in the reservoir doesn't cut it. Unless you know what your additives will bring to the table, you could listen to me and ruin your crop.. I guess AN doesn't want that responsibility.

PBP is pur blend pro by botanicare.
what i was saying is that my strain finishes in 8 weeks or so( nothings etched in stone).
and to use bud blood for the first week.
then on to big bud for a while. (AN says for 8 weeks strain to use form wk2-wk5)
and then to use over drive for wks 6-7 and flush for the last week.
ffof is ocean forest soil from fox farm.
so what im saying is that you dont use overdrive on a schedule per say you use it when you see calyx development.
so i know diff strains diff needs and all that jazz but when do you typicallly stop using big bud and start using overdrive? and when do you stop the overdrive and give plain watter for the flush
here is one top after 13 days of flowering after using bud blood
and thanx for understanding pccdrom heres all of them same time 13 days in speed queen is the strain mostly indica from mandala
