    What is your average veg time?

    My last 3 runs have been almost identical…..in terms of time and yield. I run 3 plants in a 2’x6’ space with 2 HLG r-spec LED’s totaling 470W, although I veg at much lower intensity and most of flower is less than full power. Medium is KokoBop amended w/ extra perlite, EWC, myco, basalt...

    My first post! Here are some pics of my newest hunt keeper!

    Very nice…..and it never surprises me when I see this plant grow with a minimal amount of inputs. It requires a lot less than most know. Did u grow it from seed? If so, where’d u get it?? I don’t mind being called a copycat….lol.

    HELP leaves look droopy to me HELP

    How far is your light above the canopy?? Too much light intensity can trigger the leaves to droop……plus the heat from a HPS is more significant, so that’s a factor as well. Lowering the intensity might help…..

    Finishes When Done?

    Now she’s looking close to ripe….if 99% of the white pistils have turned brown/orange and are shriveling back Into the calyx, you’re in a decent harvest window.

    Why? The sick plant is producing the most trichomes

    The RH is low but at the end of flower it’s fine….id lower my temps to 76/77f w/ humidity that low. High heat + low RH means the plant will feed faster…..so don’t overdo it. VPD is a good benchmark but in late flower I’d prefer lower RH to mitigate other problems like mold/mildew/rot.

    If the medium has food in it, should I feed lightly every watering or every other watering?

    It usually takes about 3 weeks from germination to go into 1 gal pots. Then 3 weeks to get to 5 gal…..then maybe another 3 weeks and flip. I use 2 different LED’s, both are HLG….a 320w and a 150w. I can’t say enough about HLG….i have friends using a variety of diff brands and the results...

    If the medium has food in it, should I feed lightly every watering or every other watering?

    Too funny….i forgot to mention that I add about 2ml of cal mag per gal of tap water…..my tap is decent for city water….PPM of about 144, but PH is over 8.0. So I use some fox farm organic PH down to lower it before watering. Knock on wood, but I rarely have problems. I’m ready to flip my...

    Little update and questions.

    Looking pretty good. Taking those crispy leaves off the bottom won’t hurt a thing…..leaving them won’t hurt things either. I don’t know how long u plan on vegging them, but I would top them and gently start training them….opening the plant up in an effort to get an even canopy. Lots of folks...

    Going BIG outdoor

    Go for it man…..I love to see an ambitious outdoor grow. It brings back memories of when my buddy and I grew in college. That was 1989 and overall we got a helluva lot luckier than we could have ever hoped for. We grew for 9 or 10 yrs before going on a long hiatus. Lots of variables...

    Leaf temperature.

    I sometimes get as much as a 5 degree difference…..and sometimes it’s only 1 or 2 degrees. It’s hard to get a consistent RH evenly distributed in a specific space. When it’s 60% at my canopy, it can easily be 70-72% at the base of the plant….which is about 2 ft lower. I used to obsess...

    Ready for harvest? First grow

    You’re getting there……patience is key here and will be rewarded. The main thing I look for in these situations is how is the general health of the plant. In your case, the plant looks to be in good shape from what I can see. It’s normal for some of the fans to start fading out as it gets late...

    If the medium has food in it, should I feed lightly every watering or every other watering?

    I guess it depends on how far you’re wanting to go in terms of a recipe from scratch. I would say my approach is not on the extreme end of things. I’ve used totally inert mediums and they require the grower to provide everything, at the proper levels. This approach may require more trial...

    Not quite there…..but not long. Give her a week, probably 2….

    If the medium has food in it, should I feed lightly every watering or every other watering?

    If you amend your medium, then hypothetically there’s no need to feed when watering. I’d course, u need to make sure to add in everything the plant will need for the immediate future. Most grows, mine included, require top dressing every so often after the initial mix runs out of gas...

    White Spots on Pistils

    If those tiny little spots on a small percentage of pistils is the biggest problem with the grow, I’d feel just fine overall. I’d like to hear from some of the “propeller heads” and find out exactly what it could be…..especially if it’s some type of mold-like life. But no way would I toss my...

    White Spots on Pistils

    I see what you’re talking about. Can u flick the white dots off without any effort? I wouldn’t lose much sleep over this…..just let the buds ripen and harvest. I’ve found that lots of tiny tiny particles of different types of matter can fly through the air and land on a sticky bud…..and...
