    mk1vegas : hi julie
    TheiZ : It's so annoying that seedlings stretch under HPS, no matter how close the light is.
    mk1vegas : spankme66 get out of here fake hoe
    BumbleBailey : It's because of the red and yellow light I think
    juliejugglesjellybns : hi mk
    BumbleBailey : Red for sure makes stems stretch
    TheiZ : Yeah, the spectrum is bad.
    TheiZ : Blue for veg, red for flower.
    TheiZ : But they don't stretch that much.
    mk1vegas : it goes down in the IM
    TheiZ : I'll put them in 15L pots in two weeks, have the main plant in the middle, right under the light so she can finish.

    TheiZ : I did some pruning to get light to all 8 colas.
    BumbleBailey : You can always just bury some of the stem when you move them into new pots
    TheiZ : The last grow, the smaller branches never made it to top height.
    TheiZ : They'll have filled out by then.
    TheiZ : But it's what I do anyway.
    TheiZ : It's annoying when their roots travel above the soil.
    TheiZ : But also great for oxygen.
    BumbleBailey : I never cut leaves off I just tucked the leaves under
    TheiZ : I tried that, these fan leaves were the size of a baseball glove.
    TheiZ : There's enough nitrogen feed to create new solar leaves before 12/12
    BumbleBailey : The giant leafs are funny.
    BumbleBailey : I like comparing my hand to them and it makes my hand look tiny haha
    TheiZ : SAME LOL
    TheiZ : I took one to school under a clear book protector and it got confiscated.
    TheiZ : Had it right on the front.
    BumbleBailey : Lol why tho
    TheiZ : I was a teenager, infatuated with growing.
    TheiZ : I grew a plant under one 60W glass bulb. It did pretty well.
    BumbleBailey : I guess that's as good a reason as any haha
    TheiZ : My cousin would give me his bag seeds.
    BumbleBailey : All my first plants were wimpy
    BumbleBailey : And also bag seeds
    TheiZ : I'm never going back to tap water, cbf with ph testing and up/down.

    TheiZ : Costs like $10 for a pack of 24 600ml bottles a week.
    Marilyn2225 has just logged out
    TheiZ : But a 1ft plant only takes 1.5-2L every 2-3 days.
    BumbleBailey : I've always bought water. It's easier
    TheiZ : The pH is already 6.5.
    TheiZ : My tap water is like 8.
    TheiZ : And it's really chloronic.
    TheiZ : Or chlorinated.
    TheiZ : Town water sucks.
    BumbleBailey : Most of the time it does
    BumbleBailey : The water here is really clean tho
    TheiZ : I thought about rain collecting.
    BumbleBailey : Rain is always good water
    BumbleBailey : I still can't put my tents up but I get to do some gardening this year
