When you kick in both the heat will rise a little bit and the wattage will increase a bit. You should position your light accordingly. If it were me I'd have it at around 18" at this point and try it there. Not sure what height it's at now?
What did that Frank's old lady say?Jack Herer Auto on 4/20
Day 28
A classic strain and one of the most awarded in history expressing herself on the 28th day of her life above ground. The simplicity of the outdoor rig, the space she is afforded there, and the blurple powering her, in concert with the current outdoor environment in these parts, all seem to be agreeing with her so far. As does her sort of hodgepodgey nute mix. For those keeping score....
She's in a pot of 2/3 Sohum and 1/3 50/50 Sohum/spent soil blend. All of this is augmented with bokashi and frass. All of it is periodically fed with Fox Farms Microbe Brew only. So far in veg she has been top dressed with GeoFlora nutes twice, on day 14 and yesterday, at about half the recommended dosage. Her watering regimen has included at times; Fox Farms Kelp Me Kelp You, CalMag plus Iron, Easy Weed Seaweed Supplement, MSA, and fresh worm casings right out of my little worm container when the worms were gone.
Perfect strain to show a closeup of on 4/20. Sure wish I had some now to smoke. Lol! This girl ought to start showing pre-flowers and pistils shortly. The Zkittlez has sprouted a few as of this morning. Of course the longer she waits the better, so I hope I don't see them for another week!
I turned the light off for the picture. This is how much ambient sunlight she gets at this time of day on top of the blurple. LOL.
Happy 4/20 Everyone!
Same to you Mucker! I'm celebrating properly and responsibly, yes. Lol. And you're probably right about the Jack. Can't wait to smell that Jack smell.What did that Frank's old lady say?
I put that shit on everything.
I bet you don't want to do a run without it anymore.
My secret brew hehe.
Hey Mucker hope your having a great 429
Stay safe

Pop one in soil and see the difference.TITAN
Day 45
Doesn't seem as if she's going to stretch a whole lot more. Buds are beginning to actually form now. Both the @Prescription Blend nutrients and the @NextLight 420h have performed spectacularly with this plant. She loves them both, and so do I. Based on these pictures, in about a week or ten days this plant is going to look like a bud factory working overtime. It's really quite ridiculous for an auto and it's got me wondering if the XL and Double XL auto thing may actually be as advertised. It sure seems too easy - if all you have to do to get plants like this from every auto is increase the amount (%) of photoperiod genes and decrease the amount (%) of ruderalis genes, why aren't more autos bred to become huge like this? I checked out the Growers Choice catalog and they have several other strains of auto in the XL and Double XL categories. I'm going to have to check out another one and see if I get similar growth results and similar vast amount of time before beginning flower. It is possible that this growth is only due to the coco medium and constant feeding, and the XL/Double XL thing is total crap - that's not lost on me. So we'll try another.
Here is a scale picture of the tent, featuring a nice shot of the 420h powering this girl.
Here's a closeup of the tops.
This is the lower ring action.
And here's a shot of how the branches are stacking.
XS hehe
That's a nice way of saying 'you're wrong.' Lol. I hear you on that Bill. I just think there's a difference between that "kind of air" and "actual air" to the roots. So far it hasn't screwed anything up. We'll see. I've only let it dry twice the whole grow.Pop one in soil and see the difference.
BTW when you water to run off it draws fresh air into the coco.
Thus replenishing the air every time you water.
But run your experiment, that's how we learn.
Hope your good Mucker.
Stay safe

Absolutely I'm not saying your wrong, or not to do it anymore.
Poke away, Bill! I may well BE wrong. I hope when I do something REALLY stupid you'll tell me so. Note that I said when, not if. Lol.Absolutely I'm not saying your wrong, or not to do it anymore.
I was just poking the bear.
Stay safe

Who knows you could be on to something.Poke away, Bill! I may well BE wrong. I hope when I do something REALLY stupid you'll tell me so. Note that I said when, not if. Lol.
Thanks, Felipe! I'm pulling for her too, but I have one advantage, which is that I can clearly see that she is growing in a bed that's about two inches deep before it hits almost straight sand. There's a scant possibility that I intentionally try to not show that reality in the pics.You have a lot going on!
And it all looks great!
I’m pulling for your little outside girl - I bet she won’t be little for long.
So either her roots, including her tap root, have to grow sideways towards the mass of the pile where there's mountains of dirt, or pretty soon she's going to run out of options and begin to show compromise. Least that's my guess. Lmao.
I've done some pretty stupid things in my garden and life.
And this thread has now officially become anything goes apparently.....well okay then. I stopped trying to control it a while back. Way to take it up a notch or seven, @farside05, I was wondering when it was going to get serious.
