Bignstrange's 4x4 800W COB LED Grow Tent - Promix - New Grower - Drop In!

Hey y'all wondering if I can get some input here!

I know all strains are different n blah blah I don't care;

I wanna know what kind of nute concentrations y'all are running through veg and flower. For example my chart calls to start at 600 ppm once I'm in week one of veg, 800 week 2, 1000 week 3 then flowering we take it up 100 per week until we max out at 1400 week 4 of flower.

I'm thinking of just cutting the nute values in half? Ppm should come down to just over half that and I think thats more reasonable for a lazy guy like me. I don't wanna deal with hungry or burnt plants! lol

I'm going through it now and just reworking the numbers on the chart, I won't be able to get ppms until I make each batch of nutes, but I wanted to see if thats a sound idea before I commit to it.

Any input? .

start slow, less is more when they're small - I've read that the Gen Hydro line runs a bit on the hot side so I'd go 1/4 strength nutes and work them up - be sure to water until a good amount of runoff on the days you don't feed, you don't want any build-up & it'll help you keep better track of what your plants are getting at the root zone :)

Thanks Shorti :3

I'll make sure I post what I come up with!
 
Mk this is what I did- basically just cut all the values in half and gave an educated guess on ppms, I'll start mixing based off of this and recording my ppms so I know for next run, I left myself space to write the numbers I think I should use too-or if I have to adjust I can make notes there.

I fed the plants 550 ppm a while back n no burn so I'm confident they can handle food but I agree less is more so I think this is a nice balanced route-performance and safety lol let me know what you think

Massive raises ppms by 400 at full dose so I'll be playing with that in week one and two of flowering to make sure I can get it dialed in right .

Now time to blaze .
 
That sounds about right to me. I go half strength and if the plant wants more it will tell me. I personally like to stay somewhere around 6 to 800 ppm. ✌️
Awesome thanks for the input g, well see if I can dial it in for these strains this run so that the clones go smoothly next round .
 
My plants at week 4 of veg are at 634ppm. For the past 2 weeks they've been around 570 to low 600 if that helps. I'm looking to push them soon though. I've never seen nute burn but curiosity might just get this cat

Awesome, thanks DD that does help! I fed them 550 at week 3 without issue, but some people pointed out having them at such delicate and high nute balances can cause some problems for inexperienced growers like me. Maybe once i get my cycle down pat I'll be able to push 1400 ppm but not now XD

Thanks for the input DD!

I don't know wtf is wrong with me but I totally snapped moiras main stem while trying to bend her down again today :( that bitch just doesn't take the training :/ idk if it's the flu n I'm still just spacey or what but I'm really not cool with beating my ladies up :/ I'm putting myself in the bad corner for a couple days .

Moira :( taped her up as best I could, I feel so bad, she totally has a double fim and is supposed to push out 8 branches and I was showing my sister then readjusting and boom :( it'll be really interesting to see how she grows as a result of this topping and then surgery to reattach the head lol I'm hoping for the best but I'm sssooooorrrrrryyyy! .

Jeeze. Sorry guys not a very happy go lucky update tonight :*[

I just hope I can save these girls from myself long enough for them to recover before transplant. I'm feeling like a bad dad right now :( I'll have to find a way to make it up to them, maybe pancake breakfast with all the fixins would do it? Idk .

Wish these girls luck, wish me luck, we both need it. Tomorrow's another day, and I have faith these girls will pull through, let's hope they get a good sleep and a great rest.

I'm wishing the same for all you folks out there! Sleep tight, rest well n have a great day tomorrow!

See y'all when the sun shines once more .
 
I'm sure they'll pull through for ya. Even the best dad's have mishaps and misjudgments. It's what you learn from it that counts. Well wishes for you and your babes brotha.

Thanks for all the support, never knew how much id appreciate it until you folks showed me how much y'all actually care, it means a lot .

This one's for you DD, cheers! . .
 
Goodmorning Big

I think Moira will be fine, but for future reference stems/branches etc as best tied down when they're still young and malleable - that's the issue I had with LST is that the stems get woody a few days after tying them so it's best to just leave it until it's set. Everything looks good, they're growing fast. Big, how often are you watering? I see a bit of algae on the top layer of soil
 
Ok im freaking think my pot isnt deep.enpugh it hold a gallon of soil but its wide and flat wil that affect the grow its about 6 inches tall and 16 inches wide i ordered anothe rlight by the way when i get ho me if i send u a pic of my setup can u help me make it more affective
