New Grower anonamoose's first grow, northern lights auto

[anonamoose]

ok so fed 0.5ml silicon, 0.5ml of grow, 3ml of bloom and 1ml of calmag in 1600ml of water. only got a dribble of run off so couldnt measure ph coming out, i will give 2000, maybe 2200 next time for sufficeient run off. ph going in was 6.8 though anyway. hoping the yellowing stops now lol. also i literally cant raise the lights anymore, and its about 2/3 of an inch away from the bulb. i was thinking of drilling a hole in the rim of the pot and tying the soon to be cola down, attatching it in the hole in the pot and looping it round the top of the plant.

That sounds a plan moose tie the bitch down , lol :smokebuds:

day 45 update. tied the cola down got some pics. yellowing has deffinately slowed n hopefully stopped. im going away 26th to 30th this month so i might have to get me mum to water. if i weigh out nutes n shit n put it in a sealed bottle will the ph change if its left for a couple days? she may have to water it lol. cant get out of goin either, women lol thanks

The PM nutes wont keep moose because there organic , the best thing to do is the day you go away soak the shite out of them with there normal feed and just leave your mum plain pH'ed water if they dry out to quickly mate they'll be fine missing just one feed bro

ok thanks, didnt even think of nutes goin off or whatever lol. will the ph of the water change if i leave it in a bottle for a couple days? also im much more relaxed about me plant now, everyday i was worried about it touchin the light but now ive tied it down im just thinkin bout the soon to be buds instead of spendin all day worryin about the light lol. how long you reckon till buds start formin? aahh cant wait lol. thanks for all your help dex id be right in the shit if i didnt have your guidance lol

Just let your water sit 24hrs then pH it and it will be fine for a few days moose and your buds are forming just now but at a slow rate i dont like this part of the grow they just seem to stand still i like a bit of action , lol

 

[anonamoose]

I am new to growing autos and have noticed they start drawing energy from the unused fan leaves pretty early on.
