    First DWC

    I’m trying DWC for the first time and I’m using a SCROG net for the first time also. So far I’m really enjoying how easy it is when you have the correct tools and liquids for the job. I’m using GH Flora Trio along with beneficial bacteria to keep the bad guys out. I’m sure I’m not using the...

    FIM. Did I do this right?

    So I’m thinking now that both FIM attempts failed. I’m pretty sure the centre cola is still a single. I’ll attach pictures. I thought FIM was supposed to be simple and actually kind of a “happy accident”. At least I’ve given the side shoots a chance to catch up. Does this effectively break the...

    FIM. Did I do this right?

    So it turns out (at least I think) that when I did the FIM I indeed did NOT pinch off enough. Three days later I noticed a new single node developing on its own and the leaves I had pinched were also developing just fine other than the tips being chipped off, so I tried again on that very next...

    FIM. Did I do this right?

    Why not roll the dice, right? Worst case scenario is it’s just topped like you said which is still great and what I would have otherwise done anyway haha

    FIM. Did I do this right?

    Excellent! I have a single plant only and a small tent so I should be alright. Those look very nice, this is my goal. How early do you put your net up? Do you use a specific height? I was planning on doing something a little unorthodox? Maybe common? I’m not sure, but I was planning on vegging...

    FIM. Did I do this right?

    From what I’ve heard, you are correct, two colas will likely produce larger buds and as your cola count increases the growth is smaller and kind of evens out. Something like that anyway. I have a small tent, single plant, and I’ll be trying to use a SCROG net for the first time. So my logic is...

    FIM. Did I do this right?

    All good! I appreciate anyone trying to help. I have successfully topped on my previous grows, this time I want to go for 4 main colas from a single FIM and a single recovery period vs 2 colas from topping and then topping again to reach 4. I’m sure one of the two outcomes will happen with what...

    FIM. Did I do this right?

    As far as I know, you are describing topping, not FIM?

    FIM. Did I do this right?

    I understand the concept of FIM, my question is, did I pinch off enough?

    First Double Harvest Attempt

    So after all the harvesting and drying from both rounds of flowering I got 9.5 ounces. 8 from the big plant and 1.5 from the small one. I managed to sift out 14g of kief from the trimmings. For some reason it really doesn’t taste so good. Kinda like an earthy stale closet taste. I dried it...

    Plants Got Too Tall. Low Stress Training

    It’s my first time trying it but apparently it’s pretty common

    Plants Got Too Tall. Low Stress Training

    Hey its going well so far. I’ve harvested 75% of the plant now and have left the bottoms to finish a little longer. I would say so far I’ve got about 7oz although I haven’t weighed it yet. It’s in jars and I’ll weigh it all when the full harvest is complete. Here are some pictures from last week...

    First Double Harvest Attempt

    Yeah I’ll be sifting my trimmings for kief and using that plus any not so choice popcorn buds to infuse something. I’ve made a bunch of gummy bears with homemade infused coconut oil in the past that turned out nice.

    First Double Harvest Attempt

    I fed them a little bit yesterday after the chop and today was just ph water. I’ll do one day feed one day water and so on and monitor the leaves and look for bananas. Hopefully I can turn these weak little nothings into something!

    First Double Harvest Attempt

    I done so many new things this grow. Some highly regarded techniques suck as topping and some frowned upon things like fairly late supercropping and then a second round even later! The girls responded nicely all the way through. One thing I didn’t do however was heavy defoliating on the bottoms...

    Another Trichome Check!

    This is my first coco grow so I’m still undecided on the whole flush vs don’t flush argument. Old wives tale or hard science? I’m unsure.

    Who's Got The Fostiest Buds? Let's See How Frosty A Bud Can Really Get?

    Another Trichome Check!

    Hey growers! Back again with another grow and another trichome check. What do you guys think? Time to start flushing the coco coir with plain PH water for a week? I’m currently a couple days past the 8 week flower mark.
