Any opinions on this? I'm still thinking cages are going to be the best option for my setup but I'm still not 100% sure. What do you use for plant training and support that is mobile in each grow container (as opposed to a trellis or something)?

I apologize if this question has been asked a million different times but I'm looking at some light options and could use some advice. I've done a couple grows under a blurple light and I'm ready to step it up. Flowering area is a 5x5 tent currently. Could become a room about 2 1/2-3 times...

New grower who has previously experimented with low stress training by tying branches down using garden twine and using bamboo stakes to support branches later in flowering. Now I'm looking for a more efficient way to both help train and support the plants and looking for options. I am...

Hi, new grower here. Just completed my first grow ever with soil and decided to try straight perlite hempy for grow #2. Started some seeds in a rapid rooter inside of dixie cup hempys and I plan to transplant them to 2 gallon buckets soon. I have to travel a lot for work up to 5 day stretches...

Just wanted to give a final update on my first grow. Harvested the plants yesterday after about 8.5 weeks in flower. I’m sure my yield could have been better but I learned a lot and I’m happy with the results I achieved on my first attempt and with the cheap LED I used. Just trimmed them up...

Update: about 5 weeks since I switched to 12/12. Ran into a few bumps with this grow but still hopeful that things turn out alright as it is my 1st attempt. I think I let my plants get too big before switching to flower since they stretched quite a bit and I dont think my light is strong enough...

Can anyone tell me much about the platinum collection from The Single Seed Center? I’m a new grower and they had some good prices on some well known strains but as those seeds are the only ones not tied to a featured seed bank I was wondering if anyone had any info on them. For example, if I...

Thanks, I went for the Vivosun 6" setup and it just arrived. I spent some time this morning setting it up in the tent and got it positioned well until I fired it up and realized I installed the fan the wrong direction and was it was blowing air into the tent :roll:

Hello, I am currently growing in a Vivosun 60"x60"x80" grow tent and still need to figure out ventilation for it and am looking for some advice before I make the purchase. I've been thinking of going with 6" fan and carbon filter and I'm likely going to have the fan hooked up directly to a...

Currently running my first grow which I started from seed in my grow tent with a 1k equivalent LED. I’m about to switch to flower soon and will be taking some clones so I don’t have to start from seed next time. I’ll start these in solo cups and eventually transfer to 3.5 gallon buckets and...

Ok, I ordered a bag described as coarse perlite which should be perfect. Thanks

Sounds good, I will try taking some clones and then switch to flowering this week. I’ll have to figure out something for lighting for the clones since I don’t have another light or grow tent aside from this one but I’m excited that everything is going well so far. Next attempt will be straight...

Hello, Working on my first grow currently in soil and would like to give hempy buckets a try next. I’ve been doing some research and I’m thinking I want to keep it simple and use straight perlite. I’ve read through a few threads where they did this and I saw it was recommended to use “chunky”...

Quick update. I did the LST and trimming to open it up a week or so ago and I’m thinking I’m pretty close to switching to flower. Plants are still looking nice and green and it looks like the LST worked well. I don’t have any other seeds or anything lined up for my next grow so I’m thinking I...

Cool, thanks again. I'll get some garden string and drill some small holes around the edge of the bucket to tie too. Then trim it up lightly. I'll post some pics later to update, maybe in a couple weeks when I'm ready to switch to flowering.

Thank you and others for the reply. I’m happy to hear my plants are looking good. I’ll continue with just he water for now and possibly through to the end of the grow. How can you tell if they have used up all the nitrogen in the soil and need added nutrients? Will they turn lighter in color? I...

Interesting, I was under the impression that the veg spectrum was perfectly suited for this stage of growth but I got them both on now. Thanks for the tip.

I haven’t fed them anything yet. Just water occasionally when the soil starts to get dry and I’ve been spraying them with water a few times a day which seems to help keep the humidity up in tent.

Ok, took them out of the tent and got a couple more pics in regular light including close-ups of the weird one and a a couple tiny light brown specs on some of the leafs.

Here are my plants. So far so good it seems with just water. They all look very similar except for one that I took an up close photo. It looks like a different pheno perhaps...more lanky and thinner leaves (although it still appear healthy). Gonna let them go maybe another 4 weeks and switch to...
