Nutes I'll use

Pic of the girls. Looking good. Notice all the damn tape. I saw a guy do LST training on youtube and it works well for me. So with that done I have them at about 6-8inches and they are 3weeks old.

Hey thanks DgC. Only bad this is I messed up and accidently cracked a stem but its doing better now. Also trying to think of the best time to start with the Grow Big. Anyone have any ideas on when to start? I have read 3-4weeks.
This is def gonna be fun.
Oh for anyone wondering, the small bag in the middle of the tent is a CO2 thingy I bought at the Hydro store.

 

[Titan35]

Bag of CO2 I bought for 30 bucks, says Patent Pending though.

Sativa Side: 3x Blue Dreams 1 x Alien Dawg

Quick question to anyone stopping by. When I do transplant, do I use FFOF only or a mix of 50% FFOF and 50% ProMix 4?

 

[danklover79]

Subbed, are the roots sticking out of holes in the bottom of the pots, or are the plants about the same height as the pots? I use FFOF and perlite mixture about 50/50.

 

[Titan35]

I didn't see any but then again the holes on the bottoms are all dry looking and I just watered yesterday. If I didn't have a lot of the branches taped down then yes it would be bigger than the pots. I do have a grower out where I am and he said I have plenty of time before I need to repot but then again he hasn't been by in over a week. I hope having the a/c unit in the tent isn't effecting anything. So would you recommend that I repot in the 5gallon pots I have?

 

[danklover79]

If the plants are about the same size as the pots, chances are, the roots are about the same length, maybe a little shorter. I wait until the plant is about an inch two taller than the container, then transplant, and this rule of thumb has worked well for me so far.

Repotting soon into 5gallon

Growing really nice

 

[Titan35]

Any ideas what is wrong with my Skywalker?

 

[Titan35]

Anyone have any ideas?

 

[KingJohnC]

what in the photograph are you referring to? the small amount of nutrient burn or the downward curled leaf tips? if your referring to the downward curled leaf tips it may be either be from over watering or too high of nitrogen. how many millilitres per gallon and of what are you feeding?

 

[Titan35]

Only thing I give them right now is ph water 6.0. I haven't started any Nutes just yet.

 

[KingJohnC]

you can start your plants on 1/4 strength nutrients now and slowly increase them progressively by 1/4 strength over consecutive waterings until you are at full strength nutrients. the small amount of nutrient burn most likely happened when the leaves were smaller.
