I have had my plants growing since June 23rd. this year. But seriously how long does it really take to be mature to show sex of plant or flower. I would like to know what is taking them so long. There just messed up i thank.
Details.....
All 4-6 Plant's - Started there life. June 23rd this year. All 1 - 1.5 feet tall. Trying to keep it this way if passable. I could LST some more. Scrog will be hard to do in such a small area.
Box size at approximately width (x) depth (x) height in feet (2x1x3). "Little more space on each sides."
Lights - 150 watts or so of CFL the 20 and 30 watt range kind. Also using a heat shield made of plastic about 1/8 thick. With 2 inch gap on one side for air flow. Without a timer they where set 24/0. But with a timer. For the past 3 months they where set at 12/12. Next week on 23rd will make 4 weeks..
Temps 70* - 80* F Temps are Controlled well with 10* drop lights off after just 1 - 2 hours
Lights On Not over 80* F
Lights Off Not under 70* F
Humidity - Not real sure i say in the 50's. Do not have a gauge for that anymore. Was a digital one and i dropped it in water. Better luck on the new one. When i go get it.
Carbon Filter - Just made one today and works great
Co2 enhanced water bubbler system - Both in box drain pan and in water res.
Drainage Res. - I ran cheap on and used rinsed off river rocks and a few shell fish to keep the PH buffered. Also has a single 1 foot air stone.
Water supply - I use my dehumidifier water it test out 6.8 - 7.0 every time. It is cleaned once every week. I would use my well tap water, But is all way lower PH at 6.5 or less... and is also hard. That is why i don't use it. Hell i would not even drink it.
Veg Fert. - not sure atm. Something high in Nitrogen / Low Phos. / Medium Potash
Bloom Fert. - 10-50-10
Plus some Cal/Mag+, Backing Soda or Shell fish for PH buffers
Soil PH steady 6.5 - 7.0
Water Adjusted to PH 6.8 - 7.0
Mixed Potting Soil - Ph tested 6.8 or so
Lights - 150 watts of CFL - The 20's and 30's watt bulbs
Toped - when they had only 2 or 3 sets of nods. This making them very nice and bushy...
Pest Control - No Fly. Those paper sticky traps and used Bug Spray
Just my
When using any kind of bug sprays and in less they say on the can other wise. Some do say safe for plants. "Even then who would wont to smoke or eat any kind of pesticides" Yeah who loves brownies with some hash and organic cabbages.
"BE SURE NOT TO ALLOW YOUR PLANTS TO EVEN GET EVEN A SLIGHT WIFF OF THIS KIND OF BUG CONTROL. Can have a very bad out come on your plant/plants.
Additionally my first ever clones are thriving to live. I actually used a different root enhancer harmon. This time with a organticide in it. To help with any fungus or mold issues. I thank it works on pest too.
