Ok so here my babies at around 26 days. They had like 2 feeds at 1mil a litre twice in last week. Any comments or advice welcome please. Grown from seed using led. I'm using plant magic plus soil and nutrients. I've always used canna a and b before and also canazyme. Should I be thinking about adding some kind of canazyme soon to help these babies grow
What led are you using? How many watts?

As a new member with this literally being my first reply/post, I appreciate the welcomeness of the thread title. So thanks for that!

I’m from Northern California and started 2 clones late (arguably extra late), both being choco hashberry. I’m not expecting a high yield but I figured it was a good experience to learn from before the season starts back up. They are about 6 weeks old and starting to pre-flower at about 18 inches. Using planters outdoors with Fox farm and big bloom every other watering. Wish me luck! I look forward to future postings with you guys.

1 month in and I've got paranoid about watering. My soil seems take days to dry out and I've only been giving them a litre at a time with 1ml nutes in twice. I'm fairly happy with the way these are going under led and uaing plant magic plus soil.Any comment appreciated as this is a stealth grow so riding solo here. Also roots are well out the bottom of these pots sorry not sure of size but have grown in these before and always done good.

Hey all,

I'm new to the forum, thought I should introduce myself.

Been growing for over 10 years, mostly greenhouse and light dep, though I've done plenty of indoor as well.

Nowadays I grow mostly outdoor, powered by the sun. I've got some small grow rooms set up too. I mostly blend my own Super Soil, and I've been having a lot of fun with auto-flowers lately. They don't get as big as regular seeds, so they're easier to manage on my balcony, and the 90 day turnaround lets me experiment with different supplements more quickly. Especially in California where I can get 4 harvests a year.

I’m new myself! Glad to see more new people coming in. How did you mix your own super soil? I used FF ocean blend with some worm castings and peat moss, big bloom every other watering. Doing moderately well. Welcome to the forum!

I'd like some feed back. To give you a rundown on what's going on with my plant. Back 4/20 started from seed got about two months into it found a few bettle borers in my stalks almost all of them. Cut them out with a blade scrapped crap out then ties and taped back together. The lady did well after this. Stressed for a couple weeks but bounced back nice. I lost the main cola during this. Basicly the lady thought I topped it. Well now it's around week 5 or 6 of flowering. I realy lost track since I got the bettles and it set the plant back a bit. Just looking for some feed back. I belive this is mostly a indica strain. I used some fertilizer during veg kept it outside most of the time. When it started to flower I realy stopped feeding it. just water I'm giving her. How does she look. Any idea how long this has been flowering??? Also I live in midwest currently we have about a week of rain coming so I put her in basement till it's not so moist outside. Is this ok?20180910_192408(0).jpg 15374508583077241638358173475018.jpg

You’ve got quite some time to go man. At least 6 weeks.

Hey guys, Duck here. New grower and cannabis enthusiast. Just wanted to say hello. I got my first grow going with a forty dollar investment can you dig it? I kinda wish I had waited just a bit longer and gotten things I would do better with. Established genetics and better soil to name just two. OH WELL!! I'm not out anything and I'm satisfying that urge and I'll have time to get myself set up better. Wish me luck, I'll be in touch.

Hey Duck, I'm not sure what your budget is? 40 bucks is a start though lol. I've listed what I've bought and its posted on a thread with prices and where I bought the items. Welcome to RIU! If you're searching for something specific use that search button. If you're not able to find what you're looking for then ask around, lots of very smart helpful people here. Good luck and happy growing!

Hello Folks, Dick here. I'm currently experimenting with autoflowers. I decided to create this account because I am growing Purple Maiden for which there is very little information. So, I thought I would share my experiences.

As far as I can tell Purple Maiden comes from the Czech Republic and is a cross between Lowryder and Purple Kush 70% Indica, 27% Sativa 3% ruderalis.

I'm using Plagron Nutes which are popular in Europe. Basic starter pack; Terra Grow, Terra Bloom, Power Roots, Pure Zym and Green Sensation. Plagron Light Mix soil. 85w CFL inside a homemade tent using a clothes drying rack and diamond reflective material. My landlady is cool so no need to worry too much about smell and keep the bottom open to allow for circulation of the air. At night I wrap it in blankets to cover any escaping light from being seen outside of my window. This also serves to keep it warm as the nights are starting to get cooler already and I keep all the windows open.
Total Startup cost roughly $200.

Germinated the first one August 21. She had a rough re-potting but seems to be rebounding nicely.

Hey guys, been lurking here for a while reading up while I started my first crop. Been at it since June. I have two lovely ladies and a questionable third. Just bag seed for now. Lots to learn. My first two plants are flower week 9. The wait is killing me, but they're not ready.

Hey there guys - hoping to get some advise. Been reading a lot and am about to pull trigger on a new setup and want to see if y'all think it looks alright.
8x4 grow tent 2 rotating fans inside with 440 cfm exhaust with carbon filter and 240 cfm intake fan. Growing in a DIY 8 pot rdwc undercurrent system lit by 3600 w (~1000 actual w) LEDs. Growing autoflowers (Barneys Pineapple express, fastbuds six shooter). Feeding with general hydroponics flora micro gro bloom and calmag. Full water changes every 7-10 days. 1100 GPH air pump and 1056 gph water pump.
Let me know what you think. If youve done a similar setup please let me know how its treated you. Thanks!

Here an update of my second grow. First flowering grow lol. Not sure how far along they are but I member told me I had about 6 weeks to go. I lost track of time during start of flowering becouse of Beatle borers cut my stalk took them out taped together rebounded just fine. But no idea how long they been in flowering since it stressed them or slowed the groth for a while. 20180922_091051.jpg 20180922_091051.jpg View attachment 4203295
