    Will my girls stress if they got 10/14 instead of 18/6

    I'd say to run 14/10 for the next few days until you flip to 12/12. A little natural progression of light doesn't hurt the plant. If anything it may help ease into the flower flip!

    Recommend a good side light....

    You could always toss a few cfls or T5s for supplement lighting! They may not be the greatest, but they can help. LED strips, if you have the budget or DIY skills!

    Any HLG Scorpion R-Spec grows and harvests?

    The Scorpion is (6) 288 boards that are diffused, i believe to bring them closer to the canopy, and using the newer inventronics driver. I can get one for about $800 right now. DIY for the same project may run me around $100 cheaper... maybe 200? but I think it's a steal at this price with a...

    Any HLG Scorpion R-Spec grows and harvests?

    Well, thats definitely saving some money! I chose the garage this winter for my 3x3 600W HPS and just exhaust in the garage to raise the temp a little. Run through the night time colder temps. If I get the Scorpion, I may have to install a dedicated circuit on a 15A breaker to my basement. The...

    Any HLG Scorpion R-Spec grows and harvests?

    The daytime/nighttime temperature fluctuating was the tough part. Thats what led me to buy a tempature regulator to turn the fan on and off as needed. But then I ran out of room for my 5x5 and stopped gardening for a year or so....

    Any HLG Scorpion R-Spec grows and harvests?

    Thanks for sharing your experience! Is there any benefit to have the UV bar on before the final weeks of flower? My old blurple led lamp with UV and IR diodes seemed to always hermie the plant that was under it. Maybe just a coincidence, but I stopped using it. I feel like it just blasted the...

    Any HLG Scorpion R-Spec grows and harvests?

    I sprouted a few seeds about a month ago. I tossed them under a T5 for 2 weeks and then into 2 gallon bags under a 600W MH in a 3x3 for 2 weeks and they are already creeping roots out the few bag holes. I dont know how you guys grow a full plant in a 3 gallon pot! I am going to throw my ladies...

    Any HLG Scorpion R-Spec grows and harvests?

    I want to take the dive into HLG and go right for the Scorpion R-Spec for my 5x5 tent. I've tried HPS, CMH, and cheap Blurples. Naturally, I now have to try a QB light. Can anyone show me some pics or direct me to journals of HLG Scorpion R-Spec grows and harvests? Maybe let me know your...

    GYO SEED BANK??

    Have they updated their phones yet? Every time I tried to call was a joke. I've gotten a handful of beans from them that had started to hermie in mid-late flower, but I can't blame them 100%, too many factors on my end could have caused them to shoot nanners too. Most of the beans I have...

    GYO SEED BANK??

    I dont know how these guys are still operating. No customer service, no physical person to contact, no working phone number, its like a third party of a third party, no promotions, no deals. I feel bad for anyone you signs up for their member package. No new seeds, half of the site doesnt work...

    Humidity over 80, lights out.

    You should be ok if you just flipped and are at 80% RH. Just make sure to maintain RH when you can. Id recommend looking into an inkbird humidity controller to help keep it more consistent

    Do you have a humidifier? Maybe even placing a bucket of water nearby will help a tiny bit.

    Strawberry cough

    Lol, a 75w LED is probably only good enough for a single plant in a 2x2!! I definitely started monster cropping, or whatever its called. Pulled clones from topped branches of flowering plants. They start out so bushy and have aggressive growth! Maybe thats one reason I got two plants tossing...

    Another benefit of leaving fan leaves on, is that they are the first indicators of stress or deficiencies. Anyone lollipopping their plants should also keep as many fan leaves on while removing all other side branches.

    Strawberry cough

    I cut a bunch of fan leaves on my first grow and it stunted growth a bit. I would advise against cutting any more fan leaves, but its totally your choice. Minutes after I trimmed a ton of my fans, I came across a video on youtube explaining the importance of keeping them on. Simply, those leaves...

    Strawberry cough

    If you are looking to keep them short and bushy, top them and LST them. That will make them more bushy and force lateral growth, while momentarily stunting vertical growth. Always give your plants 2 - 4 days for recovery after any disturbance. The few roots that were pulled off during...

    Strawberry cough

    I've grown both the LA SAGE CBD and Pineapple Chunk freebie seeds from GYO.green. The LA SAGE CBD is low THC, little to no buzz. It was not a great strain for me, but has helped a friend with severe anxiety and pain quite a bit. I took a few clones from the LA SAGE, just to give it one more...

    GYO.green seedbank false claims

    So, i found a few false claims on GYO.green webpage content: "HOW TO GET YOUR SPECIAL GIFT? We have five, cumulative qualifying levels which means the more you spend, the more you get. Unlike some cannabis seedbanks, however, we do not want to restrict the type of free marijuana seeds you...

    Strawberry cough

    One method ive heard of is to feed, with every watering, a quarter dose or less of your base nutes. This can help prevent burn or lockout and keep nutrients available in your soil.
