Hey Fox, good to have you here
Im very satisfied with the grow so far, they are in stretching phase right now 1-2weeks more and i think they gona start budding up.

Of course youre woorried, i know i would be. Crossing my fingers hoping everything runs smoothly in your hidden box.

Hey the forest is looking good. Its always hard to sacrifice a plant. (I only euthanize when it is too ill to recover and I am great at recovering a sick baby, or its a boy) Now you know what that space can handle, If they are growing that well in a bunch think how lucious they would be if they had more room? I'll bet you could have 2 grow boxes totally filled with that bunch of ladies. They look beautiful. Nice job.

Hey fineas , yea now i know with 3-4 weeks veg 4 plants is enough in this tent.
Im gona use it as a veg tent from now on, building a room for flowering in a month or two.

Digesting the food they got yesterday
Got a new ballast and bulb today, justincase.
I figure i can buy a new setup for every grow and still save money compared to buying pot on the street, not that im going to but i think it could be good having spareparts ready.

Still stretching, can see early signs of mg def on a big bang and a afghan, gona add some alg-a-mic (bio-bizz) next feed for those two.

Question: I read that it is good to flush the plants every few weeks, does that mean a regular flush with 3 times pot size of water or simply watering with plain water for a week? When should i do this?

 

[Insider]

Thanks for the link Allglad. Yea short and stocky, i threw in the MH quite early, think thats what stopped the stretching.
Next grow i plan to use the MH from start.

I use only organic nutes and with that in mind i think ill just use plain water with a good runthrough.
Currently i water/feed apx every 6 days. When they come to the point they need water every 4 days or more ill start plain water every other watering.

Insider looking great.
The only time I have flushed a plant is when I burned them and harvest time.

Yea, been thinkin about it, remember from my first grow that i fed every watering, at the end some plants had severe lockouts. Thats why i gona try feeding every other time when they start drinking more.

 

[pan4gold49]

Sounds like a plan.
My soil plants were fed every other watering.
Also add some molasses to your water and nutes after all your plants have shown flowers. Makes for good resin production and makes the buds sweeter.

Ive seen your buds man this must be the way to go.
Would you start the every other watering now while they only need water every 6 days or so, or would you wait until they start drinking more?

I dont know what molasses are

You can start that at any time. The molasses you can get at the store look for the un sulfured molasses in the baking aisle.

Seems they dry out a bit quicker now, maybe two feeds and then ill go with the plan.
Ill look for the molasses next time i go shopping thanks Pan.

They are stretching in turns now, the shortest yesterday aint the shortest anymore

damnit, ur garden looks good! i wish i wasn't such a noob about all this so i could have two great plants, tho mine are doing okay now

 

[Insider]

Thanks Fox
My first grow, 11 out of 18 germinated, seeds were good but i was impatient 5 out of 11 were females, 3 out of 5 smoked good due to severe nutrient lockout on 2 plants. All in all i got 3 good plants from 18 seeds
Just saying that if you get 1 good plant from 2 seeds youre doin great for a first time. A lot better than i did

 

[UntamedFox]

thanks for the perspective buddy

 

[Insider]

No problem my friend, you are doin great and learning a great deal from the problems you had. Good thing they look better now.
Soon you gona have your own homemade nugs bro, nothing beats that
And next time around you will have a hard time finding jars for all your bud
