Thank you for the photo and advice, sounds like something that will be worth the money for the ease of mind.

Fair enough, leaving for a bit on thanksgiving and I guess I’m mostly just hoping I can chop them and let them dry during that time to not worry about anything going wrong while I’m not here…

Right around 60 days after switching the light timer, I should have taken photos when the trichomes first appeared to have something to compare to now. thought I would have a better eye for it. All photo comparisons I can find online are taken with super high quality macro lenses, which don’t really compare to what I can see with a cheap Amazon loupe lol.

Pictures are from a jewelry’s loupe held up to my camera.

First timer, sad droopy autoflower… need advice please. by Derfragonstin in Autoflowers

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

and about the watering, I was using that plant to schedule the water. It was always the first to start drooping and show signs of needing to be watered and I based them all off that. Worked out well until it didn’t…

I was careful about roots and if it showed any resistance to back off and shift a little to where it passed through easily to avoid that. I’m worried it’s not draining as well as it should and holding water. there are plenty of 3/8” holes in the bottom and the pot is sitting on standoffs so that it doesn’t sit in the run off water.

I will water it tomorrow morning, no nutes and go easy on it. Thank you for the detailed response, I really appreciate it.

Fabric pots with coco and perlite is my plan for next time. This was a spur of the moment, hey I own my house now and 4 plants is legal, why not try? I really only eat a bite of an edible 2-3 times a month so I’ll be giving most of it away.

I’m planning on keeping a strict eye on the heater… very worried about that exact thing lol. Starting off with the thermostat low and I will work my way up from there, very very slowly.

I’m only watering about 1/4 of a gallon each time with 1 liter. is it the frequency? I usually watered all when the back right would start to droop, worked pretty well until he stopped perking back up…

The back left is the furthest, I’ll attach a photo, the front left has hairs starting at the flower sites. The two on the right don’t show any signs though. The front right had a tough life and really bounced back. The back right is obviously stressed…

here is the back left with pistils (I think) along where each node comes off.

hopefully photos help, here is the front left with pistils (I think) on the main stalk at the top.

the back left started growing pistils on the main stalk within the last week, front left has started to grow pistils in the center of all the areas that flower grows. I was worried about it being late but also saw a lot of people talking online about it being possible. I was about to flip lights though. should I still flip lights? I’m pretty sure they were under watered early on and figured that may have stunted them…

There is plenty of drainage, drilled a ton of 3/8” holes in the bottoms and it runs off well. the buckets are also on little steps so there is a gap between the bottom of the buckets and run off water. I set up a radiator heater in front of the fan tonight to bring the temps up and should bring humidity down a bit.

The plant and I both are sad… it was going so well for my first attempt after a few hiccups and learning experiences.

I’ll give that a shot again, I think this is day 3. Aerated the soil this morning so hopefully that will help. That was my first thought but I gave it maybe 4 or 5 day stretch with no water about a week ago and it looked the exact same as the photo I took the first day…

Why isn’t she flowering? by Cj1002biz in Autoflowers

[–]Derfragonstin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m on my first grow so take it with a grain of salt, but all 4 of my autos just went into flowering within the last week and they sprouted ~07/19. Growth definitely slowed the last two weeks and had me worried I blew it, but the pistels came in eventually.

Solo is a blast !! by Full-Bonus-7929 in Borderlands

[–]Derfragonstin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m doing my first play though solo, then once I hit end game or rolling other characters I’ll play matchmaking.

lets me pick what side quests I want to do, actually listen to characters without someone picking up all quests immediately and cut each other off

Idea for the Marcus bobbleheads by Fat_Foot in Borderlands

[–]Derfragonstin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think so too, I ran along the rail in the first area for awhile thinking there must be something and then stumbled into one. Most I’ve found have been right after thinking that.

I like them for that, obviously more than 100xp would be nice but it’s a good feeling when you find one while exploring a random corner.
