pots with autoflower nature's living soil mixed with bush doctors is slightly bigger than indicanja soil. added a couple/fee tablespoons of worm castings tea around all plants. ordered (4) more side light for future growth.
Set up for success, very nice.
Awake and added (4) sidelight to poles.
Still struggling to comprehend that this is real.
?
that we can grow now
oh lol where are you?
ohio
oh ok. nice
we still have fellow growers sitting behind bars . end prohibition!! legalize everywhere ๐
some should be there but I hear what your saying.
trimmed 2 plants and left the big one for topping.
u going to clone the top . u can use the clonex spray on the are u will be topping to get good start on the clone
no, I'm not racing plants. I have some other seeds I'm gonna do next, a few autoflowers. these are my 1st plants and I wanted to do photo to get the full experience. I also have to dry these in the same tent so I don't stink up the house. the wife wouldn't like that much.
I here ya , I also dry in same tent . I do have a 3x3 tent not setting up not enough room in garage . photos better to start with . with autos there is no room for error. when u do autos u can do perpetual grow . every 25 days u can plant new seeds & not worry about lightning schedule

no watering today. drying her out from the top. want them to start stretching.
Nice low stress training very even canopy coming
got a couple different things I'm trying. one is topped, the other two I'm stunting the main branches to let the others catch up. manscaping ๐
changed vpd to 1.1kpa.
found that it's best to set the exhaust to a continuous setting of 2 to reach vpd from my basement temps and humidity. tried vpd setting and found it was fighting itself and devices were popping on and off.
according to my calculations, I should be needing to bend these and install a net by the 30th. pots are now drying out with the wicks removed. pots weight about half from previous day.
what is your humidity in tent ? might be to dry. check your RH & make sure the VPD is in proper range
vpd is 1.0 to 1.1. humidity is staying perfect.
I know the fabric pots can dry out quicker .
it wasn't drying because I had the wicks installed in the base. the bags never got lite so I thought I was over watering. upon more research, I now think it's the lights are set to bright. I just a moment ago reduced the power to 60% and turned off the pole lights completely. the intent is to make the new growth reach for the lights
I was using the AC infinity self water pots & wasnโt that happy with the system. u still need to wet the top . only bottom half would get watered & was always saturated. I probably will use it during the summer. if we have any stretches without any rain & if it as hot as today . so far we had lots of rain & cool until today
mine are in the basement so I don't have to worry about that. lighting change appears to be helping but it's gonna take a couple days to confirm.
blueberry auto baby pics included.
Looking good man ๐ฅ
I still can't believe there really growing in my basement. they don't look at sharp in person except the one closest to the camera.
start bending
Just need to make it through this 1st grow and hopefully will come out with more patients.
looking nice and bushy though ๐
She'S definitely European. Her bush is full and she love being tied up.
still figuring out the light. half of everyone post to use 100% power, others are at 50% power with the same lights. checked DLI and PPFD, reading currently say to be at 60%. Set to be between 30-45 DMI.
I think light intensity depends on wattage. Like I have a 200watt light. so my schedule will be 50% intensity for seedling 24inches from top of plant. veg state 75% intensity 18 inches away from top of plant and for flowering 75% intensity at 12 inches away from top of my plant. hope this helps.
yah, that sounds like it could be accurate. I believe DLI is a more accurate way from what I'm reading. plants can only absorb so much light and after that it's useless energy waste.
pit a microfiber cloth under the plants to more evenly distribute water from self watering pots
When are you planning on flipping lights?
17th if they follow exactly how Mr. Cununcks you tube video. https://youtu.be/DygvOqbHF6M?si=p0JYJuz7Hp9uML5t this is the exact setup I have except I have a humidifier and heater.
Thats a good time I saw on your timeliness it shows Aug 7th I was thinking they would be huge by then
it's says July 17th on my time light to switch to 12 on 12 off. August is the last lolipoping
added wall to basement to enclosed grow room. found that closing the door or raised the humidity to the point that I can't stay within the vpn. added humidifier to room and increase air circulation to tent. humidifier not running and now able to get humidity down.
stems noticably thickening. did a pinch bend on the tallest branch and it appears to be ok.
lollipoped, defoliated, and watered
Looking ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ Careful don't stress in stretch is what I've been told
already did the lolipoping. week 5 is the 2nd lollipop, from now it will be low stress training watering and a final feeding. ๐๐ผlet's hope it be the ๐ฅ
fug yeah bud, she is sexy ๐
lower the net spread the canopy as wide as you can be careful not to snap any stems. you should be able to fill that tent.
looking good. I have a trellis net to SCROG but have yet to use it since I grow autos considering giving it a try next round tho
if you have enough time to low stress training those autos, you can come out with a number of colas
I have an late blueberry auto I added in the corner but the real problem is I am several states away with auto pots watering. once I get back it'll be close to final lollipop and final feed.
just started experimenting with the temp to get her purpling ๐
everything is looking really good ๐
you deserve the โBest Recoveryโ award on this app. Those are the struggles that make you better. they suck to experience but necessary. nice work man
looking very nice
it's been a road to recover, this is my mid life crisis trying to keep my shit together. ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ
thx, I had someone send me some closer pics. I'll post them tomorrow. it's from a iPhone so not good quality but there's definitely flowers
I think im going to flip my light sometime next week or the next im waiting to see how much my one super boof grows this week since the transplant cause the rest are ready for it so will c how it goes I got some monsters outside I love growing
I was only a couple weeks in with the small blueberry auto and it appears to be doing fine. just wanted to get another strain in there with little training. you'll be happy whatever you decide.
I changed to 12 and 12 last night time for the fun to begin
I love some blueberry
hopefully will get an ounce off her since I started her late ๐ซฉ
now it's going to test your patience ๐
lol
one plant is stretching quite a bit more. 1 more day till I can do the final lollipop ๐ญ
Gotta make sure the marijuana is marijuanaโing ๐
episode 1 of bud voyeurs, you take in all the nutrients or she gets the hose
she's still marijuanaing! I visual proof ๐
Buds are very sticky now and the tricomes are starting to spread away from the flowers and on the leaves. You can feel the bud density have double.
I am in day 18 after swapping to flower and I have popcorn buds all over. Should I start lollipopping the lower bud sites off to increase the upper canopy? I've had mixed answers on lollipop after switching to flower
week 1 or flower and week 4 are when you lollipop
correction, week 1 and week 3. I had to do it late on my 2nd lollipop in week 4 because of vacation. Make sure you use a thin razor blade and remove all the node you are cutting or they will grow back.
Ok I am in week 3 and am thinking of doing some lollipoppong today
be very precise, I'm kicking myself for rushing because it stress the one out and was herming on the lower half. of course, it decided to do a super stretch so I had to bend over all the stalks a week before I lollipoped.
should have been done before flipping, but would do asap
I would feed more till start to see a few red hairs thatโs when I stop feeding usually around week 6 or 7 then couple weeks just distilled water just some friendly advice
she's already started the red hairs, early bloomer I guess.๐. will see if she needs anything additional but I'm using slow release Gaia so she'll continue to be fed. I'm now debating to use a little liquid fertilizer to see if it will bulk them up.
I only use usually straight through bloom the roots organic uprising bloom that stuff is wicked pissa. You can get the version that you just talked with or you can get the one thatโs terp tea That you can brew
Mr Canuck has a 3 part video that I am following. It has the same AC Infinity tent system I'm using. I'm following it for my first grow. https://youtu.be/DygvOqbHF6M?si=xkFVwnFH9AxcCyRV
Added a 2x2x4 grow tent to start the next veg cycle. plan on using 1 gal pots the next run, as many as will fit in the 2x2 tent. we do little training on new plants.
Answer is 9 for a 2x2x4 but... IMO optimal is as follows -x9 1/2 gal -x4 1 gal -ร2 3 gal -x1 5 gal
thanks stash. it is a veg tent and will be transfered to a 3x 3 tent. 10 will fit in 1 gal bots and I am only gonna veg for 3 weeks. planning on little to no training, just gonna run them straight or with 2 nodes. almost like a fenom hunt but without mothering.๐ I just want to see as many different strains as quickly as possible.
Anytime... I use the 2x2 for early veg as well and a 3x3 for flowering. It's why I chimed in. I find 2 works best in 3x3 so I bought a 2x4 to stagger my harvest ~1mo apart. It works really well for the continuous fresh cured herbs. Especially on the personal scale. And it makes time fly by in the process, which in turn reduces harvest anxiety and makes for a better end product.
Dude, we're about to be besties. I have been feeling so much more relaxed all around and it's not the cannabis or the antidepressants. ๐ I was just looking today at hydro systems for my next add but a guy I started talking to does his hydro with CO2. Now he has people sending him products to try.๐ค Question, where do you dry?
Your comment about the time flying. Dude, it blowing by. I don't know about you but it made me start thing about how much time I got left.๐ฌ That was the defining moment for me to choose less training for more basic plants. I want to see as many as I can and take eventually take it to the next level.
I deploy COยฒ from time to time. Honestly, most my COยฒ is generated by pets and people. Once I started noticing that my tanks were lasting a long time with COยฒ meters governing them, I really started conserving it for when my plants really need a boost.
Depends... if I have an opportunity, I'll use my poor man's cannatrol lmao. That's my storage unit though. So mainly tents. Someday I'll have me a harvest right...
A good place to start on experimenting to up your game is to choose a plant... make multiple clones and run side by sides, with different variables to the finish line.
yah, clones is a project down the road. hydro and possible CO2 are what I'm researching next.
great point. what would you say early or mid flower?
it's good to gain knowledge... the journey is the fun part.
๐๐ผ
10 more days till my app says they should be stacked. the blueberry auto is dense as fuck, like sweezing a cactus. the purple haze photos still look like they may be in mid flower with the way the pistils look.
looking good!!
I'm try to think that, the buds look so much bigger in the photos. Relatively speaking, I'm tracking others by month and I'm to the point I believe that there about average size. I do see the haze bud leaves are starting to darken and there's a weird purplish gree haze color. you just can't make it out like that car paint color.
Always nice to see your buds man
thx your too. it's a great community on here. not sure how many people are operating but have had a lot of good feedback and recommendations. Mr. Plant contacted me and will be posting some of the photos on there Instagram which is even more exciting. I'm going to see how far I can take this.
did a tester from a water pipe using the lollipop flower clipings and accidentally couch locked myself. I ordered it for the resins I get which give less of a head high. I think I'm happy with the results already. Couldn't even tell you the effect I was so goggleyed.
Check a friends page and like it for me if you guys would. He has a great system and great advise. https://www.reddit.com/u/Zealousideal-Mix7339/s/TRNPFoVrnj
tell your friend to come post here....... just saying....๐
don't worry I am. I need to figure out how to send my profile instead of just sharing the app. haven't looked into it yet but I have been posting the app link on what little social media I have.
more people we can get in this app, the better. All idiots excluded. ๐๐ผ
It will still be a great smoke because you did it yourself ๐ช๐ซก
and how is it?
is still curing. tastes green right now with a hint of something sweet.
it will be fun to crush some in the 10 ton press I got too. ๐
Let me know your thoughts. Roughly 10 days in to cure. Was it worth it in the end, YES!
What matters is your thoughts! Only upwards from here! Congrats and Enjoy!
Enjoy that smoke growmey!
day 6 of cure, trying to be patient and do it right. plus I got like 20 carts to get through before they go bad. ๐
thanks stash, it looks so uncommercialize. fluffy super sticky, and has all its smell right now. I can smell so many different micro smells but still has an oder of chlorophyll. I put a micro cloth on the open jars last night to draw out some humidity and it worked. down to 65%
I wish I had your problems ๐
it could be worse ๐๐ผ
