You really don't need all the fancy stuff to grow but it helps a whole lot more and gives you peace of mind 😌 being able to change the environment even if your not at home... I got a vivosun humidifier that's $60 cheaper with discount code it really works as it says
The only (fancy) things I use is the tent and light i don't bother with soil ph or any of that bs i do keep water ph in check and use nutes but that's it I've seen people spend 2k n more for a set up im sitting here with my 400$ setup people be crazy im no pro either and my cheap methods work just fine
My humidity was 88%
And my temp was 112 my heater did not auto shut off
Luckily the girls survived the intense climate
Things are in check now
Ow🤯
Sheesh
The heater sucked alot of moisture from the plants and caused humidity to spike for approx 14hrs leaves were dropped and soil dry i was like oh shit problems are fixed
I moved 2 of the bigger plants inside the house.
It was getting too crowded and I kept snapping branches while watering etc. The smaller bushes plant is a gs cookies it was burned by the light as a seedling. Light is 54in from the top of light bottom of floor at 100%
My temp is 77 and my humidity still high at 88 dehumidifier coming tomorrow
I just leave the door open. 60 percent max I bet unless you got like a foot of water in the bottom which I have been guilty of doing
You wont regret it. I just got mines Sat at 5pm. Amazon said it would be in at 11am. I had to tell my side girl friend to wait, because I wanted to set it up immediately because my Humidity was 68% and Im week 4. Now Im sitting at 48% day and 52% lights off (5hrs)
I bought a heater with a thermostat and set it to 80 the other heater had no stat and made the inside 112 that caused my plants to sweat the new heater brought humidity down to 70% a little high but fine for now I need to run the heat a little high in tent because I have it in a shed outside
For the past month ive noticed discoloration on my leaves I did some reading it could be humidity being too high and droplets falling on leaves and magnifying the light causing burning or could it be a lack of nutrients im using micr grow n bloom my.ppm is 5 and my light is 100% 45in from plants
What kinda light? And download photone app and ppfd app 😉😁
It's the vivosun aerowing it's supposed to be for the 4x2 it's in 4x4
Starting to develop a magnesium deficiency. The white spots are from low calcium. Just a bit a cal mag should clear it up. If still in veg you can foliar spray it. 👊
I'm still vegging my 2 blueberry ogs the 2 Girlscout cookies started flowering what products do you recommend
I prefer NPK industries Raw cal mag. It comes in a powder form so not paying shipping for water. 8oz bag $26 last long time cheap to ship.
Thanks for the info ill buy some
U can make a foliar spray with Epsom salts . Use when lights out & like six said only if u still in veg
Sweet thanks
I think they look healthy and great. Remember you are growing flowers not leaves. They look just fine
But having nutrient problems won't help the flowers im going to add more nitrogen and calcium just to be safe not much just half a ml see what she does im going to defo a good bit so I can see if there's a difference when It fills in again
I don't see any nutrient problems is what I am saying
What would be causing the discoloration in your opinion.
My personal opinion would be that the pictures you posted yesterday. Show nothing to worry about. There's nothing in the three pictures I was looking at, that tells me there's a deficiency or anything wrong. In my experience, not every leaf is going to look perfect on the plant. Based on the pictures you showed, I wouldn't change anything in my feeding regiment but that's just me
I have 6 different plants and they're all doing crazy things the godzilla Cookies are flowering faster and the lemon amnesia is the frostiest right beside Girlscout cookies then the blueberrys
Ladies looking good
New light arrived today still waiting on more packages
And I popped another blueberry OG 🫐
Nice man! I have that same light I'm pretty sure it works pretty well
Yes I have one of these in a 4x4 it's for the 4x2 but it's working just dine for 6 plant's I bought this second one for more light some of my plants need more red
Nice I use mine in a 3x3 and am now trying to figure out out my 2 plants
That should be plenty for the 3x3 im looking at the 3x3 for a curing tent i should be able to cure almost 2lbs inside maybe more after I add a mid shelf
Humidity was a little high today but no problem
It's starting to stink in here🦨
What week flower and what type of light u running how high up ans the power if u don't mind me asking
Looking good
I've been flowering since January 2nd im using the aerowing 200w 100% power
Yessum im very pleased with the results
I bought a greenhouse for this year's outdoor grow still need to.put the door on
6x8 Amazon buddy it's surprisingly sturdy for the price it's weird sliding door design has that bit of frame sticking out far in my opinion it's a cheapo what'd you expect I also forgot I planted a seed and left it in the closet too long it's stretched high but hopefully she's ok
How much was that greenhouse i want one is why i asked probably over priced
It's 296 for the 6x10 I bought the 6x8 which is 299 I should've bought the 6x10 oh well
Hell yeah bro now it's on!!🤙😂
This was the house I sent you messages about it's a bitch to put together instructions have no word's just pictures looking like they're printed in the 80s but it's surprisingly sturdy for the price
I need to tie back some branches
They can't keep up with the bud weight
Good problem to have
Also this is what I grow in the red bag on bottom orange ontop and I start off in the green back each bag mixed with a lb of worm poo
Beautiful & Massive!!!! I can smell em🤪👌🏾👌🏾
This Girlscout 🍪s is fat
❄️💨😱
I can’t wait to have a harvest like this I keep getting small but potent buds
Are you using anything other than micro grow n bloom
No I wasn’t sure if it was useful or hype and I got bad advice and told its hype
If you'd like my recipe send me a dm
Girlscout 🍪s are curing
The box of flarf ill roll into Jay's and make butter
What was the final weight? I can’t wait to have a heavy ass big yield I am proud of my growth as a novice grower im a short time I went from first “attempt” well call it 7g dry weight :( I wish I was joking then this my first real successful grow is just chopped 80% down yesterday morning looks promising a couple oz at least when I finish harvesting the rest of the Pineapple Express in a day or two maybe three days at most I would guess a qp at most but I’m not solid in estimating final yet or wet weight I know you lose a considerable amount of weight when it dry…
Yes that's correct up to 70% of weight is loss during drying i do not weight until after drying and curing are complete but between my 6 plants i have about 3lbs of buds and another half lb of flarf
That is awesome great work! One of these days I’ll have results like that I have three seeds left (two Pineapple Express and one more white rhino) but I’m already on the hunt for some other strains I’d like to grow I was super disappointed when my Bruce banner grow flopped as bad as it did I had it from a local dispensary a few times and loved the effects it had that and gorilla glue #4 and jealousy add probably my top 3 favorite strains of recent years and now I don’t even wanna see Bruce banner of I might hulk out haha
Finally the last plant is hung to dry
The bb og started curing today
You ain't playing bro! That's what's up!
Always been a dream of mine to grow my own medicine ive grown flowers and veggies for years preparing myself for growing jane it's fairly easy
6 weeks after sprout and she's already flowering and she's not a auto this is beyond me
6 weeks from seed is usually when the plant is considered "mature" and shows its sex. You got a girl showing off, not flowering
Yessir and u must have a lot of red in your lights that pushes that too
It's set to veg on 65% maybe my light needs to be raised this has never happened to me
It's nothing bad it's good it's showing she hit full maturity. That's all
I agree females when there mature grow hairs in there nodes . I also noticed u should run a fan gently on her stems look kinda weak .
I've probably never noticed the hairs until now she will be my 7th plant and I don't really pay attention to her besides watering i leave them alone ill clip here and there when needed I don't go crazy I plan on vegging her for 6 months at least. shes still too young to play with rn
I found this dude while I was checking the girls
He's harmless ill keep him just in case a pest decides to make a home
Why do you keep dead leaves under it????
Naturally feed the soil IMO
They break down feeding soil also it keeps the soil moister
I'm thinking of trying cloning so i bought this dude it's very nice quality and the light is adjustable and has a schedule setting and a sun rise/ sunset setting
Love this thing. Really well made and really quick progress with the heat mat underneath.
They sell some cheaper ones on Amazon for like 20$ with a light
This was only 120 on Amazon
I did not purchase the heat mat ive never needed one but I do plan trying a mat with this unit just to see the difference it could make
Yea only 120$ !!! I seen 20$ ones with lights on them
This has lights too
Thank god was going to say ! But yea I realize if u can afford it’s like would u rather drive a caddy or cheavy !!! So u driving a Cadillac! Is all ! I’m just glad I just found a aloe Vera plant at a rummage sale for 1 $ I be able to make some nice nutes with that and hopefully I’ll get a comphrey plant and some nettles
This dome has some very nice features. I soak the stems and leaves from previous grows in hot water then let it cool i use that on seedlings and pre veg stuff as a little boost of goodness
After 5 weeks of curing im confident shes ready to smoke shes a little crispy on the outside and sticky on inside gs cookies does have a faint cookie smell to it im fairly happy with her
I’m glad I’m not the only one that had mine be crispy on the outside but moisture on the inner bud
That's how it's supposed to be you don't want the outside too crunchy I usually cure mine in lower temp and humidity than recommended it takes longer to cure but worh it
The orange sherbet and strawberry gorilla are flowering and barely 3 months old which is expected meanwhile my last blueberry looking nice n bushy
Is it a auto flower?
Ik they flower whenever they want i normally don't mess with autos I like to veg out a plant
Honestly I think she's ready to flower tbh.
Flowering is going very nicely these autos have been Flowering 4 days and I now switched my light so I can get the blueberry to start as well the autos are not as full as I'd like but oh well they switched on me very quickly and my peppers are getting plump
I found these 3 dudes chilling
On the morning checkup If they're cool ill let them be
The yellow is nice on em and big Betty back there was switched to flower
Are you using mushroom bags? I get those occasionally when using them
No and they keep popping up ill remove em and agitated the soil hoping to damage any spores but it doesn't work ill just keep plucking em no big deal
Don't pick them. You have been rewarded eye candy. That is a good sign of health for the soil. Instead, let them die off back into the soil to start the cycle again
I've plucked them but new baby shoots have already sprouted i figured thier spores would be bad for my flowering ladies or start a weird mutation
Its not bad, its actually beneficial. The spores won't cause any mutation. It means you have a good mycelium network in your soil.
More than likely you have mushroom compost
Well boys my first attempt at cloning was a huge success all 4 clones rooted and I transplanted one today the rest tomorrow this is the stuff I used
Dude nice how long were they in there for?
2 weeks when pulled her she was clinging on for life so I probably should've pulled her out sooner
What size is ur tent and light wattage
It's a 4x4 tent and im using the vivosun aerowing the light im using is supposed to be for the 4x2 but it's working just fine the light is at 100% I do admit I have to rearrange the girls about twice daily so they get enough light all the way around
What's your RH at? I've never seen tent walls sweat like that
It's normally at 85% it's not causing any issues for me I don't use a humidifier I have 6 plants and constant watering and the tent being 90 degres it stays humid i have my tent inside a 12x16 tin shed non insulated so I need to run my tent a little high in degres when it comes to curing and drying do it inside the house
Are you sure the plants can breathe in that climate? Vpd is 0.71 based on the numbers you gave
Yes I open it up to.let it air out every few hours If I run into major complications/problems ill face em head on no going back now plus this is my second run inside this tent im confident ill be.ok
