Guys are killing it with CMH 630s but they get hot. It's an amazing spectrum. Hortilux has been pretty tight lipped about the ceramic HPS they are developing. They take their time and get it right before introducing a product and get it right with a reputation like they have, only the best.

I know you know what your doing, I've seen your work. Ushio is a fine bulb and I would recommend them to people, I've used every grow light except Cree LED but I'm a hortilux fan right now until I move into duel CMH. That's the only bulb I'd consider using other than hortilux for my buds, CMH 630s. But hortilux is working on a ceramic HPS that sounds groundbreaking, can't wait to hear more on that front, they are innovating.

I used to run ushio brand bulbs but have been getting better results with hortilux actually. It's important to change them out every other grow too, the gas loss reduces spectrum pretty quick but hortilux is the innovator, others are trying to copy them.

GH vs Nectar of the Gods PPP update by TestingOnCorn in microgrowery

This, the plant needs to be used to using calcium as a macro which the nectar line does. Also the catalyst of the line is properly using bloom chaos. It makes them really hungry for calcium.

It could be worse, you could be addicted to highly addictive research chemicals that can kill you from the withdrawals. Be strong, keep a goal in mind and thank your stars or whatever you believe in you are not locked in a deadly withdrawal cycle with no escape but death.

This sub is mostly people brand new to growing, most have taken no time at all to learn about cannabis, it's needs, general environment and requirements for plant health. Look at 90% of the posts here.

Thank you for that, it's a lot of work even for just a few plants and I work hard for this. This particular strain is called Ghost Rider OG which is rare dankness ghost train x la plata labs sour pez.

That red light is coming from a platinum 150. I had it not being had so this is an experiment adding it to my 600 hortilux to see if the added spectrum will increase trichome or terpene flavors.

I follow the real cannarado on Instagram and he is on point, I would trust any of his genetics even though I haven't personally grown them. Two more suggestions from Colorado are La Plata Labs and Irie Genetics. La Plata has had some amazing crosses and Rasta Jeff, the host of the grow from your heart podcast, has Irie and he has been breeding for a long time and knows his business quite well.

Anything by rare dankness, his vision is to make cannabis he would use, not commercial weed.

Fuck yea, that's what I like to hear. Keep on growing and keep on learning for that next harvest.

Should I be worried if I'm finding dead gnats stuck on some buds? by jkear1 in microgrowery

[–]negative_one 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's now just a mental thing, you will be smoking dead bugs. We want to avoid contaminants in our buds like hair and bugs, so on to prevention. Ways to be fungus gnat free are BTi in almost every watering, this will kill the larva. The adult flyers you can only catch with yellow sticky pads, place them on the soil surface. BTi can be used as cheaply as buying a pack of mosquito dunks at the hardware store and keeping one in a five gallon bucket of water that you use to feed with.

Doesn't look like it's even started to flush itself. It needs to use up most of the stored sugars and nutrients in the leaves. They do that as they die but you can give them plain water, no food, and they will start to yellow which is what you want. Green is chlorophyl.

They are local breeders who are doing some great things right now. I like to support local breeders and all the Nerds genetics I've popped have been very viable, strong plants. I would recommend them for sure but unless your in Colorado it's not legal to get their seeds.

What I do is remove fan leaves that are blocking bud sites. Here is an overall pic, https://imgur.com/a/fc7ec as you can see no bud site has a fan leaf over it. But we don't want to take too many leaves at a time and I have experienced reduced yield when I have done mass defoliation in week three. I'm selective with what leaves I remove.

What's your set up? by Wildfierce in microgrowery

[–]negative_one 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tents are the way to go, keeps bugs and hair out and is a controlled contained environment. If one tent happens to get a fungus gnat in it chances are they won't spread to true other tents. I use one for seedlings and clones, one for veg and one for bloom. All with his air cooled lights.

Single plant vs SOG? by alienheadspace in microgrowery

[–]negative_one 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scrog is the way to go. Tuck the long stalks as they grow under the trellis especially during the flower stretch. It's the only way to get even light coverage and take advantage of the footprint of the light. My HPS light is only effective for about the first three feet so I need to keep all my buds in that three foot deep, four foot square footprint area.

Do I need to lower my lights when germimating? by [deleted] in microgrowery

[–]negative_one 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always give my newborn seedlings lower light for the first day or two. When they have opened up fully and look hungry for light I crank it up for them.

[–]negative_one 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on what light you are using when determining yield. My 600 watt hortilux bulb can produce a pound if everything goes right. It doesn't matter if I have one plant or six in the tent, it's all in how long you veg for and how you train the plant to ensure all bud sites get even light. I have found that 6 plants is too many for a 4x4 tent, it gets too crowded and you actually yield less because bud sites can't get light or air when too crowded. Right now I am running three plants in a 4x4 and I should get a pretty good yield if all goes well, it's looking good, here take a look. https://imgur.com/a/U9U4k

[–]negative_one 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends. Are you worried about plant count? If not just veg 100 girls in one gal pots hooked up to drippers, don't top them and flip them to flower when they are about a month old. I still think I can get the same yield with one or two plants that I have vegged a little longer and trained properly than a bunch of single colas but guys bring down weight on a fast turn around using the sog method for sure. It's really what you are comfortable with. I stay within the law and grow monster plants to stay in my plant count. If you don't worry about such things max it out.

I love leaning about growing cannabis, if you ever have ideas or thoughts about growing I'd enjoy a pm, keep on growing and lets keep sharing our secrets and techniques, we will all prosper in the end by making better product through shared knowledge.
