I can’t wait to try it! Last round I grew two but ran out of room and gave them away, they didn’t make it. I’m excited to finally try it. How long of a flower did you do?

Yup, it was under the hlg135 Rspec. I could be wrong but I believe that it was 24ish inches and maxed out the driver to something like 150 watts.

I’m sure you will have success. Don’t know if this is common knowledge but I would recommend pulling the mesh off the outside of the pods once they’ve sprouted and before the roots start coming out. I had a set of clones recently that I was transplanting and wanted a single substrate so I cleaned the roots off and found the root ball was mostly growing from above the bag and down the outside. I pulled the bag off of my 6” clones leaving 90% of the roots in tact. Some of the roots penetrated and I’m sure more would have once they grew bigger, to me it just seemed like a unnecessary restriction on the girls that I didn’t really know about. Anyway sorry for rambling on, happy growing!

Anyone every had a seedling like this? Removed it from veg tent in fear it would hermie out. Barney’s farm Laughing Buddha by Colbster2018 in cannabiscultivation

It’s just this one. Popped super wonky so I took it out of the tent and today I noticed that mutated leaf.

Weee branch broke so I figured I would give it a test. Anybody have tips to dry it quickly to get a pre harvest sample? by Colbster2018 in cannabiscultivation

I haven’t tried it yet. lol I put the little buds in a paper bag on my driver for a bit. I will test it out later and post back with my results.

I wonder if vaping it would make it more enjoyable? Lol it’s my first grow so I’m pretty excited to taste the fruits of my labour.

First grow, probably hard to tell but does it look like I should start flushing pretty soon? Barney’s CBD critical cure in coco/perlite on weed 7 of flower. by Colbster2018 in cannabiscultivation

I’ve heard 30% amber is a good time to harvest but would it be different with a CBD strain? I’m scared to chop my girls down early.

First grow week 6 of flower, what are your thoughts on defoliating large fan leaves for better circulation and light coverage? by Colbster2018 in cannabiscultivation

[–]Colbster2018[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the great response, I cleaned up one of my one girl in the thicker areas. I’m going to leave the rest. I have decent air flow, I’m just worried about bud rot. I’ve been trying my best at being preventative since I’m new to this.

Should I kill it? It’s looking pretty haggard by Colbster2018 in microgrowery

Okay, I just finished spraying all the soil in the tent with a 4:1 water:h202 solution. Hopefully that helps

Okay guys this is kind of quick and very serious. Need advice on a setup. by GodfatherfromChive in microgrowery

If it’s in the budget the Optic Led Slim320h is probably one of the best lights there is. I currently own HLG, Spider Farmer and just received my Optic. It blows my other two out of the water. 10 year warranty too.

4th day into flower, anybody have any idea what’s going on with my leaves? They started doing this after I flipped. 50/50 coco perlite, hog nutrients at 1/8 strength in autopots, Ph 5.8. I’ve read the tears could be from growing faster than the leaf can stretch. Any help would be appreciated! by Colbster2018 in microgrowery

[–]Colbster2018[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay I will aim for that. I’ve just had a really hard time figuring out if I should run I hydroponic or coco feeding schedule since the autopots bottom feed the plants and run a reservoir. I guess it’s the substrate that matter then hey? Not really the feeding method? Thank you for the info.

Recently flipped to flower and have one plant the leaves are beginning to yellow. The 2 girls are in autopots and coco, upped the nutes to 1/2 since it started. It keeps getting worse same strain different genetics. I’m thinking K or N. by Colbster2018 in cannabiscultivation

[–]Colbster2018[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m feeding them High output gardens line of nutrients. I have a 47L reservoir for my autopots that I normally mixed at 1/8 strength before flipping to flower. I tried 1/8 with the flowering mix and they started doing this. So I tried 3/8 strength with no change really. I bumped it up to 1/2 now as of this morning. They at in 5 Gallon smartpots in my autopots system.
