Happy House - First Autoflower Medical Grow - Indoor

[HappyHouse]

I try to keep my canopy between 12 & 18 inches from the light. I use an app on my phone to measure the intensity of the light in real time.

Have you seen a time lapse of a cannabis garden? They have a slow dance that can be seen when it's sped up. "Droopy" plants might just be in the middle of a dance move you can't see.

I flush my coco in the last week or two of bloom. Tells the plant to eat up her own energy stores and push out lots of oil before she dies

If you're concerned about salt build up -it happens- run extra nutes (more water at feeding, not stronger nutes) through the pot so that you get run off. Flushes out the old and replaces it with new throughout the pot. That's what I do when I'm concerned about possible hot spots in the substrate.

I see those alternating nodes! Puberty is beautiful.

I think they look a little far from the lights. I keep an eye out of course...but I allow for small complaints like minor curling and folding on my girls. So maybe ignore all my advice.

Thank you so much for your help! I think i'm not as concerned now. I looked at your plant pics and sometimes they looked similar. I just don't enough to know what is normal. Their leaves don't feel dry though so unless they start showing some discoloration or start to feel dry, I'm gonna attempt to not worry.

I haven't been the one watering the last few times so I'm guessing the boys haven't been getting as much run-off as I usually get. I'm keeping them closer to the lights. They can toughen up a little.

Thanks again!

Using steel is what I do. If the leaves feel nice, soft and pliable then I don't worry a bit. Obviously, I cannot see any discoloration, so I rely on my wife for that. But as long as they are as described above, no worries.

Yep! I'm going by feel now. I just can't keep myself from worrying. I'm going to become my mother, I just know it!

Did a sorta flush today. Gave them all about a gallon and a half of water with nutes and cal/mag - just to see if they liked it and I don't think people have been watering to run-off. I have a very long day tomorrow at work so might have hubby post pics. Only did some leaf tucking. Letting them stretch a bit.

 

[HappyHouse]

Howdy! All I can say is WOW! The flush had amazing results! The girls look much happier! They aren't as deep a green and are all standing up and filling out. I'm so proud of them! So much so that I brought them out of the grow room so I could take some better photos.

Here are Thumbalina and Beuhla - my two Northern Lights

Here is Claire - Amnesia Haze

And Thomasina and Misty - Blueberrys

Both Thumbalina and Claire have alternating stems. They are so beutiful. Just what I needed after a long day at work!

I also added a science expert into the grow room to keep an eye on the girls. I think he helped!

Have a fantabulous day!

Hello ECG! I was watching a show recently about cannabis and it had a grower they called East Coast Grower and I immediately thought East Coast Ghost! That's how goofy I am! .

 

[HappyHouse]

One thing I forgot to say is that I ph'd to 5.8 yesterday because after looking at the chart Kingjoe posted, I realized that was the sweet spot for coco. .

So question - we are looking to buy either a 5x5 or a 5x10 tent to expand. Which would ya'all choose? I can't decide if 1 large tent and a smaller tent or 3 smaller tents would be better.

A 5×10 would be nice if you can veg enough plants to fill it up but multiple tents can be good also for mothers, clones, and even autos but I guess it really depends on what you plan to do in future. I'm gonna get me another 4×4 or maybe even a 5×5 to keep a few mothers in and also will keep a few autos in there going.

I think I will run both autos and photos. I also want to eventually get to a point of having Mother's and clones. Mostly, I want room to be able to have a perpetual grow to help medicate my family and to also be able to experiment sometimes. My son just got some lemon diesel bud that has seeds in it. We are collecting those and all I can think about is the potential of cross-breeding someday!

Yea having extra tents for mothers, clones, and you could even use one for breeding.

Lemon Diesel sounds awesome, I have a Skunk Diesel going now that I'm pretty excited to try.

It smells good but I'm not trying it tonight since it is sativa and I need to sleep soon. Long day at work tomorrow and can't afford to get energized right before bed!

I know what you mean, I like me a good Indica for bedtime lol. I been smoking some white widow that I harvested a few weeks back for my night time medicine and it does the trick lol.

That would be why I'm growing blueberry right now! It's 85% indica. Hoping for a true face-plant!

Cool I have two Blueberries that I will be harvesting around the 1st of January and another that will be harvested a few weeks after them two so I should have plenty of Blueberry for a while lol. Here's a pic of one.

I meant 2 5x5 tents or 1 5x10. Sheesh! I can't type!
