I'm finally on the road home again. Ill be back home tomorrow night. I asked for an Aero Garden and got one so I'm going to use one of the holes for a plant and see how it works and maybe move up to a real hydro system next grow.
Good morning everyone. I am finally back home. So the first thing I did when I get in the door was check my plants, and they were thirsty!! I might have lost my smaller plant completely and the bigger one was just a little droopy. After a good watering and feeding the bottom plant has perked right up and is back on track. The small one however doesn't seem to be doing much, so far only one leaf has lifted but the leaf it self still looks gone.
Here's what you've been waiting for. The first photo is of the larger plant, it really grew and filled it self back up while I was gone. The second is of the small plant which looks dead, Im going to give it a few more days and see if it changes at all. And lastly there is a photo of my new adventure, Im trying to use my new Aero Garden to grow one. It says chives but its just the paper cover I left it on there because it says to.
I was going to switch to 12/12 this week but after this stress im going to give it one more week, and hope the smaller plant comes back. But if not, oh well.
Good News! Last night I was doing my regular checks and I found that my little plant has new growth! So I felt all of the leaves on it and clipped off all of the dead and crispy leaves. I also found a ton of new branches on my bigger plant so I tied it back in a few more places so they can get the best light. I was going to flip the lights this weekend but now that the little one is showing signs of life Im going to let it go one more week and see how it turns out!
Okay, questions about lights... this morning I noticed one of my bulbs is starting to go out, so I need to replace it. They are 24in florescents I can get bulbs that my local shop says are for growing, that's what's in my other fixture, but given my space and not wanting anything crazy what are some ideas for new bulbs?
So I've been looking for the lights and it seems all I can find are 20W 6500k bulbs, that's the same thing I have now so unless anyone knows of something better I will probably pick some up in the next day or two
Happy New Year! Plants are looking good. I should have some new bulbs this weekend and I'll put up some new photos then! After the new bulbs I'll give it a week and then flip the lights and see what happens. I can't wait!
Happy thurweed to you also. New lights!!! I can definitely tell a big difference in the amount of light already and I just turned them on. They are still just 20w but it was all I could find. Next week should be all steam ahead for flowering.
Hey guys, its been a while. I had some set backs. I moved and that kinda threw off things but I'm back on track now. I haven't switched to flowering yet because of all of this but I will be soon! My plant is looking great and smelling strong! I might add a photo or two later his week.
