I realize this is a 10 year old post, but it’s the only FoxFarm feeding schedule for cannabis that I could find. It has gone really well in veg for me. The plants look amazing and are doing well thanks to this schedule. The one week I deviated from it, I used 50% of the FF schedule THEY...

man, this is my first grow, so I don't know how big seeds should be -- I think the T.Haze x Skunk seeds were smaller than the others, though... And yes, they were freebies from the order I placed with seedboutique (gypsy nirvana)

yeah, i have this free reflector that came with my HTG supply-made system that seems to radiate a lot of heat - the instructions on the packaging recommended 18-24 inches, so I'm trying to be safe with about 22" right now. when I have some more money, I'm going to get an air-cooled reflector...

ah, the homemade hydro system. i need to learn about this! no need spending the big bucks on a premade system when all you need is a large tub and a pump, eh? I have good news and bad news - the good news is that I figured out that I was probably placing the light too close to the plants...

damn, had to throw out one of the AK-48's today - both plants have wilted considerably despite attempts to regularly water them when my soil moisture meter tells me to... Leaves curling under, plant looks like its shrinking. took the AK-48 out of the pot and I'm wondering if the MG Organic...

I have another question, in case anyone ever looks at this - does it matter how close an HID light is to the canopy, as long as the temps are under control? My 400W HPS system (with conversion MH bulb) says 18-24 inches is recommended, but I was thinking I would try 12" and keep it as cool as...

Need some more pics! I'm putting some new ones up tomorrow. Good luck! Let's hope we beat the odds and get all girls!

I know, my post is too long! Even I get bored reading it, but I think for anyone interested in these journals, it supplies all the needed info. I might have forgotten to say that since the beginning, these are all on a 24/0 light routine... Questions - 1) Anyone with AK48's have any pics of...

Thanks - I did some research on the T. Haze x Skunk and apparently this plant is a monster (even with SCROG) and can flower for months and months. Some people have luck apparently using limited nutes as well as gradually reducing flowering times below 12 hours...

seems too early for stress training. MG organic is trash, literally. Doesn't drain well, and ends up with the "earthquake" effect in your pot (big cracks develop, water goes straight down instead of saturating the medium evenly). Yellowing is either lack of nutes (Magnesium especially) from...

Just wanted to specify - the two plants with the most foliage are the AK48's, the smallest are the Bubblicious, and the two in the middle in terms of size are the T. Haze x Skunk #1's (one is wilting, the other is doing great)...

This is my first grow -- took several months to get everything together and have a good place for the setup. Now I'm worried I might have some sick plants. I got a 400W HPS ballast from HTGSupply (currently using the 400W MH conversion bulb that came with the system) - been vegging for about 4...

ahhh day three after direct seed in the waterlogged rock-wool - 3 of the 4 bubbliscous seeds appear to be sprouting after removing the lid the tupperware container I had them in and putting them a few inches under CFL's last night... I've found that even a "100W" CFL (the spiral screw in type)...

I'm afraid my cubes are too wet - I used the instructions on the rockwool package (dip in water with 5.5 pH), then planted seeds and after 2 days, the cubes continue to feel waterlogged. I now know to gently squeeze some of this water out, but in the hopes that what appears to be some activity...
