I ran the same setup with the same logic for a decade after moving indoors. Maintaining HID is cheap (other than power bill), easy, with good yield. Expanding or starting from scratch now a days is a different story. $250 in LED equals a 600w HID PAR but running at 60% power usage, no added AC...

Stick to it and you will be growing monsters in no time. Wife loves it when I bring her "flowers".

1 gallon of soil per foot is the common accepted ratio. transplant at 3/4 gallon per foot.

:welcome: Curious, how deep did you start the seed? You want that florescent a bit closer, 6-8 inches. Common problem this time of year is that you need to keep her temp in the upper 70s. Good luck and enjoy the grow.

Did a quick search and can not find anything on the soil. I have herd of Kristalon but only ever used it on nonflowering plants. It's an organic fert too high in N for flowering plants. Adding it to two soils without N may balance out. Do not use sugars or microbe boosters with it. Cold, over...

Agree with 013, too cold and wet. There may be other issues but with her too cold and wet there is no point. Can you drape a make shift green house over her? There is no point in adding nutrients to the soil yet. The roots won't draw anything up because they are saturated and the cold has...

:welcome:

I figured a week was just a guestimate. All cloudy with pistols darkening is a good heady high. As you amber potency goes up but so dose the couch lock.

If possible top the photo while still veging in long days. It will slow the growth for a week then bush out. That gives your auto some extra photon time for better bud development.

With bag seed at least you know personally what the bud is like. Better than a seed bank review.

Looking good. Do you know the strain? Are you harvesting for heady or body high?

Spider farm, mars, viparspectra, any name brand will serve you well. Vipar is generally the cheapest of them. Have had a cheap viparspectra on a 18/6 timer for 3+ years nonstop, no issues. The only issue is the space. A plant is not a unit of measurement. For me two plants is three 1000 series...

Autos are born with an expiration date. Timmer starts with your first true leaves so you are in veg week 4. I would save the experimental techniques for your next grow. Around the 4th to 6th node is when you top, stress, whatever to autos, so the plant has time to recover and benefit before...

We can not see details with the yellow lighting and don't know what exact problems you are referring to. Clear photos and description of issues. What is your media/soil mix? What nutrients and how much are you using when? What is your temperature and humidity? What strain are you growing? We can...

Pushing PH hard will just cause a wild pendulum effect. Keep your water in the 5.5 to 6.5 range when correcting. You may be blocking some nutrients at that PH but nothing that it can not recover from. Do the leaves look extra dark green or discolored spots? If not I would consider it watering...
