InTheShed Grows Inside & Out: Jump In Any Time

Plants are looking gorgeous! Love the colors on Blue Treacle! Regarding the fowtailing I think it s genetics. Like others mentions if won't affect anything expect the aspect
 
You’re all good! Lol
Yeah, this time! I swear I'll cut down on the predictions...;)

Thanks for stopping by flash! Always nice to see you. Now that I know it's the natural fade of the plant I dig that purple. When the first plant did it I thought it was developing some deficiency :eek:.

Haha got you. My Blue Gelato 41 can turn purple in late flowering as well. I hope they will. I may give them two or three cold nights the last 3 days in the worst case :p
 
@InTheShed how old was that cadidas that you used the top from to clone?
28 days...but keep in mind that my plants grow a lot slower than most plants growing in a tent. My RH ranges from 35-80% and my temps drop into the high 50s at night and air temps are rarely above 65º during the day (radiant heat from the sun notwithstanding). Less than "controlled"!

Cold nights are my specialty these days :).
 
The pH of Pro Mix itself should be 5.5-5.8, that's what the manufacturer balances it to. I water at 6.2-6.4 so it can drift down through the range of 6.5 to 5.5 which is the optimal range for nutrient uptake.
 
I'm not seeing any droop in the Candidas though mine are shorter than yours as I recall. The lean that may look like droop is because these plants turn toward the sun within 10 minutes of getting them outside! And now that I look at them and newty's and P9's, I'm thinking I might have topped too high :rolleyes:. I'm going to have a lot of training to do and I'm really going to have to buy pipe cleaners now. No more getting away with whatever I had left over from when the kids were little!

And I think they look cool...win-win!


Like I mentioned, all my Candida turned into shrubbery
Bushy girls for sure

I'm making sure my Hash Plant gets bushy. I'll prob have a little time, waiting for the ATF to mature.

Thanks Farside. I was way off in my guesses - shows you how much we pay attention to pH, using living soils. :p
 
Crazy gave you the formula P=V*U. You need to measure the voltage first to see where your outlet falls. Then monitor the amperage draw when the light is on. Assuming you are at 120V (which you're probably not. more like 115-118) and applying the formula Watts = Volts * Amperage or P=V*U. you want 250watts so P=250. applying that to the formula based on the assumption that your wall is 120V you get 250 = 120*U. Algebraically solving for it 250/120=U so 250 watts nets 2.0833 amps.

Now here is where it gets fun. This is what the system draws. The meanwell is converting AC to DC and reducing the voltage at the same time. There is a loss in doing this thus the heat created by the driver so even though that is what you're calculating what the strips see is less.

Advice get it close and call it a day. The plants are not going to know the difference between 250 and 230 watts.

this was helpful to me,, appreciated

the last couple pages before this post as well,, cheers
 
Blue is looking heavy and dense by now. That's prone to be great!
Lights show in the forest? Come here and watch the Aurora boralis in the north. :)
Too cold so I'll just have to get by with @TheMadDabber's pics. Here's one pic so I don't get the whole post taken down, but there are 10 different light exhibits scattered in the forest, all of them really well done:

Thanks farside! I'll see how close my slurry test is to that range. So you're thinking is I should be nuting lower than the 6.5 I currently use.

We live and learn! Here anyway :).

Bushy I can deal with, leggy not so much!

Slogging through here can turn up a lot of good information. I'm glad you stuck with it!

Friday update is a quick one because I was running late this morning. I had to wait for the temps to get out of the high 40s before bringing the plants out of the nice warm 60º shed and spray the little ones with neem. It's not going to break 64º today but I'm hoping the radiant sunlight will help.

Speaking of the little ones, I found someone local in need of clones! He'd been on my threads before but dropped off the site recently. I saw that he had posted a pic in one of the OTM contests and PMd him, and it turns out he's about to have an empty tent :thumb:. I'm going to meet him this weekend so a lot of these will have new homes:

I'll be keeping the back row (AK, Candida, Candida) and one AK and two Sour G from the solo cups, and passing along the rest.

Here are the Candidas this morning. Topped:

And FIMmed:

This weekend I'll be transplanting the remaining clones into 1 gallon nursery pots as they are all pretty root bound in those cups, and I'll start to train the lower branches on the Candidas. I'll also scope the trichomes on BT2 and slurry test the ProMix HP. Oh yeah, and replace the toilet in the master bathroom and the flush/fill/flapper on the toilet in the small bathroom that tops itself off every 15 minutes or so. I'm sure there's more I'm forgetting...

I hope this week has been a good one and that everyone is making plans to ring in the new year in the best way possible. See y'all later!
:peace:

Leggy is fine by me outdoors, preferable even because I want to grow a low plant in front of it... I’m also not topping mine for this first run. I have a real liking for growing at least one plant untopped outdoors each season. Love that natural shape. I’m almost certain yours look like the Indica pheno Shed. Although mine has only been outdoors so maybe it’s just lankier. But your leaves look more indica-like. Maybe we can’t really tell yet and I’m way off... we’ll find out soon enough :D
 
I'm fine with the indica pheno because the way I see it, once it's in oil it works out the same either way. More weight with lower CBD % or less weight with higher CBD % only matters if you're smoking it. If I run it into oil using the spreadsheet, I'm hoping they would end up the same total CBD/ml.

I hope to have them tested either way if it's not too pricey or they don't need too much bud.
