|  31 days of flowering Hey all! I just wanted to show you some pics of my progress at 31 days of flowering....and I had a few questions for you. With me starting week 5 I think it's time for a game plan on what I should do. I'm still feeding at 900 ppm and pH 5.6. Still using FloraNova bloom at about 1/4 strength and still using KoolBloom at about the same, and Floralicious at full strength, and distilled water with MagiCal. With week 5 starting, do I need to continue the same feeding schedule? When do I need to start possibly backing it down, and when do I need to set up for my flush? Because I have been using the GH FloraNova feeding schedule, and it refers to "ripen" as the time I would back it down. I also have done some studying on this strain, and I do know it will vary, but the info I have found was 8 1/2 weeks is normally what it took to complete the flowering. I also know that I need to watch the coloring of the hairs. What is your opinion? Thanks!  | ||||||||

| Can't help you with the hydro. What kind of light are you using? They look to be coming along fine. Wait for the hydro folks to take a look though. Looks like a t-5. How do you like it? Good luck!

| Funny you should say that...I had to make a decision this week on whether or not to use the new high pressure sodium light I have or to continue with the T-5's. I decided to stay with the T-5's due to having to redesign the grow room to accomodate the HPS light, and because the plants seem to be filling in great. I'm really impressed with the T-5s so far. | ||||||||

| I have a small t-5 for veg, mine are 6500k each, for veging, and ISO has an awesome set. I like them. What tubes do you have in them? You will be amazed if you put the babies under the HPS. They will fill right out. T-5's need to be snugged up close I find. Great for veg but not always the best for flower. Depending on what tubes you have. They look good but maybe they need intense more light. If they are filling in and you are happy then leave them. what do I know? sounds like you have it all planned. Show us more as they grow!

| I'm using 3500K bulbs. I have 6 bulbs on the top and 6 bulbs on the sides, so it seems to be getting plenty of light. The only reason I'm not using the HPS is because I do not have the room with the size of the plants and the room I would need for the light. I was a very hard decision not to use it! | ||||||||

| You have the right tubes and I have seen super things done with t-5's. I will be interested in watching how it works for you. Good luck. That side light is a good idea. I even have cfl's hanging along the side when my veg plants get taller. It really helps. Good luck! Hyrdro person will chime in soon, I am sure.
