New Grower 1st Try on a Pc-Grow

[UHF]

In a PC grow the goal is a small plant with tighter node spacing to keep the plant short. If you set the light that high above the plants your node spacing will be greater and you could end up with plants that are too tall for your space. I would suggest you keep them low.

Right on muddy. Closer the better with cfl in pc case

i'm in the process of drying her out... giving a rest from watering , btw if the leaves are yellow ... does that mean we can't safe them already ?.. and that we just look forward hoping for the rest of the new leaves will be fine..
:

Yes i believe the new growth will be fine and i try to never remove a leaf until it just falls of when touched

Sorry bro internet been down. If i would have continued to grow in a pc i was going to order some 5x5 black pots. they would work perfect. Something like this> http://www.atlantishydroponics.com/NGW-525-Black-Plastic-Pot-4530
I was going to mount my lights with magnets but i feared of them falling (as i had read of it happening) then i was going to hang them with string & i dont know why i did not do it like that. I just mounted mine with screws and moved the plants to them. Also helps if you have 2 different sizes of plants.

niceeee....move the bubblelicious to a new pc box, i just made one more PC box set up... still with cfl (perfected and using reflector and much more tidier than the old one..,.. and one blue mystic seedling came up over the weekend.. which is going in there too.

and for the old pc box, will be getting more pots in and finishing up my short rider beans... i only got 2 beans left so i thought why not.. , wish me luck! :head:

went in the pcbox 2 days ago... break soil on the window... which explain's the stretching of the stem.. .. by the time its in the pc .. and in 2 days the leaves start to grow larger ... it started to go down down... way down... besides that it looks okey... i put some toothpicks in crosses to try to support the stem to go back up... will that be okey?.. or shall i just go with the flow and let it lean like that... ?..

thank guys!.. peace out!

just use a piece of wire, stick it in soil close to it but not to close (so not to bad root damage if any) Gently lean plant towards wire and lightly secure to wire loosely with a couple of bread ties. move it as close to the cfl bulbs as you can. that will stop the stretch and strengthen it up
