Not very often.

What a bunch of ijits in there. Even the Admin was in there acting like Buck and I almost replied but figured screw that. Couldn't get a decent IQ # if you pooled them all together. lol

Heaven forbid if you aren't a battle scarred vet/ex-con or your opinion is shit and they'll pile more of it on you if you try to spark up an intelligent debate.

Enough hijacking and on with the show!

Lmao don’t think Id like that plc

I’ll pull one out soon as it drys out in 3 days or so ye they seem to be growing nice nice I must hv shocked them a lot by taking fan leafs off and bottom stems to transfer energy to the top of the main colas just read I should not do this oops, some info on line states it’s well beneficial mix views I guess.

I think I had stress which stumped growth and also ph problems now I hv a pen and can sort this win win.

Ye I’ll check strengh and add more if it’s weeker but I’ll not add to my tank/feed I’ll hand feed it once or twice a week just to prevent gonna flush the pots 1 time a week also as I’m not gonna get run off every day using this tank and 24 hr timer coz it just won’t bet up in time and may lead to overwatering.

Doesn't really shock them to clean out the lower growth and you will get a bigger yield by doing that. I don't do it enough.

I wouldn't even bother giving them peroxide until you can check the roots. Might do more harm than good. Kinda like chemo in that tho it may cure the patient it can hurt them too. Too much peroxide and you can burn the tiny feeder root tips and then the plants can really suffer and slow down until they grow new ones. Maybe even die if the damage is really bad.

Don't go there unless you have a real thick skin and like to be abused and ganged up on. Lot of angry, ignorant people in there. Troll warehouse.

Thanks ye though that’s what would happen why I did it just the fan leaf thing scared me abit.
Ok I’ll leave that peroxide out for now till I check roots, ye I don’t think I would get along with those guys haha

Where are you at for flowering? I checked the last page but can't remember if you flipped to 12/12 yet.

I give a half dose of BB a week before I flip then the rest when I flip. Another full dose after a watering with just water then maybe one more dose in week 3. By then I figure there's enough left over in the pots that I might just use water alone depending on how the plants and buds are reacting. Pretty sure mine are all topped up as I'm getting minor tip burn along the margins of the leaves on most of them. Day 30 today.

One of the Critical Mass girls last night. Starting to get stinky.

Hi buddy I’m 1 week today into flower.

I use the Remo kit has All I need just seen all using big bud lmao.

Nice that plant looks great all bud haha, hope mine get all buds.

What week u switch to flower matey I went at 5 week too late there growing quick now so I’m scared about room ha. May go at week for next time.

I’m either gonna drop to 5 was plants 4 each corner 1 middle or go to a SOG stile and pop 50 plants in there in small pots and switch 1 week into flower to 12/12 anyone share any info on there SOG if done one wondering what yield per plant switching at 1 week maybe 1/2 oz 3/4 per my plant.

Today’s beauties so many colas and great flat canopy just so many leaves now there that wide it’s crazy only like 15” high but 30” high haha. Well not that much but ye wider than higher.

Hi guys well it’s just gone 1st day into week 3 of flower these are growing quick now 1 week left and they should stop growing.

Is there anything I should change at the end of week 3 flower I.E nutes,Ph,amount of feed, ppm, defoliant. Take a look at these what u recon looking good.

Also best add my humidity is way too high so I’m off to buy an expensive £100 thing as I cannot find them much cheaper.

Plants look sickly. All a real funny yellow colour.

After the end of the 3rd week when stretch is over I'm feeding by the Lucas Formula. With 3-part nutes you stop using the Grow and use half as much Micro as Bloom in a 1:2 ratio. I'd want around 1000ppm if you're RH is high and lower than that if you get the RH down.

Have you fed any bud booster yet? I give a half dose of Big Bud a week before I flip to 12/12 then the other half when I flip but I'm hand watering each pot. I'm almost at the end of week 7 now and only giving them RO water until the end.

As you're nearing the end of stretch I wouldn't go too high on the nutes as their demand for them drops rapidly after the stretch is over. Maybe aim for 750 as the max for now. I'm not really up on how they work with the feed system you have so maybe even lower than that. You don't want to start burning them now.

Hi buddy thanks.
must be the light that’s making them look more yellow than they are I’ll get pics with light off see what u think then.

If they are abit too yellow how is this solved buddy, there friving and look a lot healthier than they use to lol, no droop curling bad leaves.

Last day of week 3 is Tuesday I’m not using grow not used since I turned to 12/12 but I will half my micro when week 3 finishies, my PPM at the moment are 600 in 40 litre water tank with 50 mil of each 6 piece nutes velokelp/micro/candy/Astro flower/magnifical/bloom. Just over 1 mil per litre Is this not enough at 600 PPM or leave be matey.

My humidity is high at moment but just got a 10 litre dehumidifier gonna pop that in grow tent and get it down to 50 ish.

I use Astro flower does same job as big bud mate so grow shop said.

So u feed just water from week 7 then is that your flush or just final week all water just before u go to flush.

If the plants are looking good at your end then I'd continue as you are. You got the best view going. It's a lot easier to make calls when you have the plants sitting right in front of you that looking at pics on the web. I go more by gut feeling and decades of experience than rather than any set formula. Still get it a bit wonky sometimes but mostyly get it right.

I just start feeding plain RO water from about the end of week 6. I'm at day 43 now and they all got a dose of some sulfur stuff and Bud Factor X about a week ago. Some have various levels of nute burn so it's bread and water minus the bread to the end now.

The Critical Mass is looking like it might only need a week more to start chopping them. About half clear/cloudy in the trich department already and seeds busting out all over the place. Won't be doing that again. Samples are saying this is going to be some real ass-kicking smoke. Should have my 40-1000X scope by Tuesday if Amazon is right about delivery times. Then I can get right in for a good close look. I want to get some scary pics of those damn spider mite monsters.

Ye I’ll just go with my gut then I know when a plant looks unhappy kind of so I’ll go from there with the nutes so far there looking good may add alittle more next feed see how they go drop my micro by half this week also.

Is there anything u would add more of out of my feed at this stage buddy as there all getting same lvs 50 mil.

Ok I’ll ask about the water feed closer to the time only day 20. Bud sites showing nicely if I do say so.

I may grab one of those cameras to close pics would be handy to see right in there.

Iv also just started another 10 lemon haze clones off just potted 3 days ago will grab some pics on them later

You could always just add stuff to a plant on it's own and see how it reacts. That way you don't have to risk the rest.

I'm getting ready to sprout a whole bunch of seeds. A buddy sent me about 1000 seeds from 5 different Island Sweet Skunk he mass pollinated with 3 DJ Shorts Blueberry males. 5 bags of beans and he says #2 is about the biggest yielder but #4 has more colourful and smellier phenos. Some possible hermies so first course of action is checking for them and breeding that trait out. Will sprout 10 each of those two for starters and cross the best of them then keep only the seeds that come from non-hermie girls. Any hermies whether male or female will be eliminated with extreme prejudice!

Bedtime for Bonzo here.

Ye tester plant it is.

Nice I hate seeds so much work compared to cuttings, good look tho u should get some good stuff from them for shore.

Just added a dehumidifier to my grow room that I hv my tent in see if it makes any difference. Gonna need a smaller one for the tent this one is a big 10L so defo no room in the tent for it

just just my girls and yes u are correct oldMed all my leafs seem to by going yellowy mainly top half but when u compare to how green they use to be im puzzled.

My light is a HPS 600 at 15 to 16” away from top colas, temps of 28, my girls are now getting 2500Ml a day feed at 1.2mil per litre, Ph is 6.2 ppm 560, humidity down to 56 now after a better humidity and temp controller has been fitted night night which alters both to 0.1 of a degree if there out to what I set for day and night cost me £250 but well where it.

That 30 degree too warm is that the reason for the yellow ness.

I’ll post some pics when I’m back in later, hv to add when I first looked my cheap battery thermostat readings were well out to this brainy kit, temps were telling me.....

Crap 5£ thermostat
Temp 26
Humidity 75

New kit £250
Temp 30
Humidity 56

Temp went down soon as my fan worked little harder but now it’s running 100% all day on a hot day unless temp outside come down to around 12 degree is this telling me I need a 8” Exhurst fan not my 6” hyper fan I use now.

When your plants are growing fast they will be yellow as the new growth emerges then turn green after a day or so in the light. Older leaves at the top going yellow is signs of micro-nutrient deficiencies usually caused by the pH being out of whack and usually too high.

What is the air temp being drawn into the tent? Moving more air won't cool the temp if incoming air is too warm.
