I cant remember indica or sativa..

Do indica's or sativas require more nutrients. I know one of the 2 usually does better with more nutes and one does better with less. Thanks

I'd say IMO indicas require more nutes, stavias has the bigger leaves as far as fatness goes and can absorb light to promote health but the indicas have smaller leaves allowing less light and require supplement to create maximum yield

Although I somewhat agree with Indicas being more nutrient tolerant,I believe it is more strain specific
than anything.Also I think your description on the leaves is a bit backwards....lol

Lol my b I knew I was almost right thanks for the fix tho

Happens to the best of us..Half the time I can't even find my own car keys,so your all good...lol

Aside from the fine points above re Sativas using less nutrients generally, another characteristic is they are also better adapted for high temps and the branches and leaves grow a little farther apart with more spacing to allow more airflow and cope with the higher temperatures where they tend to grow natively.

This is entirely dependent on strain.

Over the course of an entire grow, a 13+ week flowering sativa is going to "require more nutrients" than a 7-8 week flowering indica.

I am going to grow 2 blue dream, 1 gigabud, 1 sour kosher. Any advice? Oh and Im growing it with the bulb vertically. I also have another question. In my grow room I think its mold. It only grows in one particular spot. I have the dehumidifier on but still it keeps coming back every 2 days. heres a pic.It grows On that small grey area where theres no paint on the concrete. I don't get it. I used harsh chemical cleaners to get rid of it and it comes back every 2 days. I also have a dehumidifier running in there now just to prevent mold. My plants aren't even sprouted yet.

ive had a couple of sativa strains that were nutrient fiends. on the other hand the indicas seem to be more tolerant to heavy nutrients. i agree with everybody above, it is very much strain dependant

May not be mold bud, if that's concrete on the floor u could just be seeing what's called sweating, it's we're the moisture from the underside of the concrete creates a puddle on the surface. Sorta like water on the outside of a glass when it's hot and the glass has something cold in it. Also known as precipitation. And becareful using strong chemicals around your babies. It can have some serious effects

Its definetly not moisture. you cant see it in the pic but its like white fuzz that comes back every 2 days. IM assuming its mold cause what else grows back and lookms like white fuzz.

Prime with Kilz. Get some concrete sealant.

Its looks like cotton

I just used flat white paint to cover the spot. seems like theres only mold on the spot that isn't painted.

Like sohigh said, Killz is the shit for that, you don not want mold coming in when your plants are in there, can easily ruin your crop.
