Valda Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Ok so let me get this right. Are these lights used for plants that have begun to flower and you need to stop that process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MentalYeti Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 It will put the plants back into veg. It isn't a grow light at all.Sent from my SM-G970F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valda Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Ok so 1 light per plant. Mine are very big plants. Have decided to put them into flower as I have over 40 outside. Will do a black room outside tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MentalYeti Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Ah ok. I think I am getting confused. Between your small and big grows. LolSent from my SM-G970F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valda Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Its all good. I have 8 Mothers whom I clone from. I grow indoors and just have begun outdoors. I began growing in April 2019. I have had such fun growing. These seeds are the first time that I have had such a bad experience. Ordered more seeds but from Overseas. I may not even get them as so much happens in SA postal services. I am really very new to this. I became very interested when my gardener planted a pip in my garden last year October. I watched as this plant grew to over 2.5 metres. A friend took the flowers off me in May. So began my journey. I had a good in doors crop last month. Thank you for all your help young man. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CreX Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 I still think you have a problem with your medium. I would flush those plants containers with a very large amount of correctly phd water, and begin a light feeding schedule after a week. But all this requires you to be able to correctly measure and adjust your pH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valda Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Thank you for this information. I did change my medium from Freedom and I am so sorry I did and yes you are right. I don't have a PH Problem. I have bore hole and the PH stays at 6.1 I shall flush regardless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CreX Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Interesting, might be a bad batch as Organics matter is generally decent. Was it a recent buy? I might consider a transplant to another soil if that's doable for you? Otherwise a flush might do the trick... Do you brew any microbe teas?

Valda Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Microbe teas???? I suspect it is the soil as it looks dead. What and how do I do microbe teas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for all your help young man.Lol then you have more experience than me. I grew once or twice before. Second indoor. But I think I got a harvest by accident. There were no books or help like there is today. Soil is a big thing as well. My first grow failed badly because of soil. Makes for awesome lawn dressing though.

Valda Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Freedom farms soil is a must. I am an organic grower for potatoes and veggies so I understand what you put in the soil will come out in the end result. I don't smoke it. Too scared of having a panic attack. I wish to study the different strains and get more scientific knowledgeable. It is a fascinating plant. Happy planting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Microbe teas are awesome! It can be a bit daunting at first, but you will definitely see the benifit fast. Take a look at the organic growing section of the forum... There are lots of great tips there... And I have a grow diary called teas teas teas... If you can I would do a bit of your own googling as there is quite a bit of info on teas and their benifits... More so on the teas ingredient list... That's the magic right there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valda Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Oh wow thank you for this information. I shall go and have a look at this. Will let you know how I do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valda Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Ok just watched a video on how to make Compost tea with Molasses. Going to try my hand at it. Would this tea then replace or the other feeding things I give my plants. I use Microlife, Kelp and cal-mag and when in flower Fire Juice. My outdoor plants I use Nitrosol. All my plants are planted in 30 kgs bags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CreX Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 The teas would containminimal amounts of nutrients, and is more for the microbial boost, use in conjunction, or replace your plain watering with a tea... Once a month to your whole garden it will really start to transform the soil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dank Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 (edited) Welcome to the forum @Vanessa , about the seedlings, could be hot soil. I would just monitor the watering, looks a bit overwatered perhaps (along with possible hot soil), causing some issues. PS @MartinHorne warmest welcome to the 420SA fam.

PsyCLown Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 @Vanessa welcome! Which is the new soil you are using? What is the name of the brand of this new soil? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valda Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Organic matter purchased from Nelspruit. I see that Green Thumb is now selling it. I am so sorry I changed from Freedom farms. I don't like knocking anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like knocking anyone.That is odd, perhaps it is a bad batch. I have currently have 2 new seedling which went into some organics Matter soil and they're doing fine. It may be worth while reaching out to the owner to find out whether others have experienced similar issues and find out whether he is aware of the issue. @greenkush you are experiencing the same issues on your new soil?

CreX Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 I have been thinking about this, and I have seen great plants grown in cultera soil from garden & home... And terrible plants in freedom farms soil and and and and... I think sticking to one soil is unwise as all soils seem to go through good and bad patches. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valda Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Thank you for so much information. I have learnt much today. I enjoy this site. I see that cannabis growing is done by mostly men. Smiles. It can be rather intimidating for little ole me. Going to try my hand at tea making for my entire garden. Again thank you to all who have helped me. This is me signing off and saying good night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valda Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Hello All, I am so grateful to you all for your eagerness to hep me. The seeds like even worse today. i wake up every morning and rush to see if i see just the slightest improvement. I use Organic for my clones and they are doing great. I now believe its the seeds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
