I didn't take it that way... it all good. I appreciate the knowledge and the opinions...BTW I didn't mean to insinuate yours isn't a good side by side. It kinda reads that way im sorry. I just meant a huge commercial grow with all necessary controls in place.
will still want smoke report on bud.
I think I'm adding 25% to FFOF and I'll be doing a top dressing of Gaia green bloom 2-8-4 after fist month. I will be amending Coco with gaia green all purpose 4-4-4, worm castings and perlite. I will top dress as needed. That's the plan. I will be updating OG Kush Journal with final weight. I trimmed up first girl.. she came in at 3.7 ounces . Still fingers are crossed at reaching a pound on first grow.. Doubtful tho, but it will be close.nice first grow mate. congrats
your going to love and hate the auto`s mate. love the experimental grow!!
5gal is most popular for autos but really your room size is deciding factor.
3 or 5gal both are good and how you work plants and placement in tent matters just as much as 2gal diff i think. 5gal may be easier to look after because it hold more water(soil) but if you got to jam pots in just to use 5gal good luck.
New Grow Questions;
-are you amending your coco and soil ?? or just soil.
Soil: I will be very interested to see how the auto and FF goes, i`m assuming your just using straight water.
Coco: using nut`s when watering or amending or both.
those plants are gg4
how about tossing in the 7 gallon pot into the experiment i bet 7 wins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That sucks... so much safer indoors.
. plus it's nice being outside after an northern ontario winter.
on your grow.
I grew a jher 12 tall this summer in Ontario, it was such a shifty fall this year she never really finished. I just picked a few sunny days and started chopping.How did yours do outside this fall.indoor has it's advantages but so does outdoor, 10+ oz`s dry and 3 oz of sugar leaf shake, old days i'd make oil out of sucker leaves and that plants would hypothetically be worth easy $1500.00++ without even trying, of course in money you are saving not buying weed
In ontario i believe it is law you grow indoor and outdoor, says right on ontario lic. plate ` a place to grow` !!
sounds good mate, very glad you started this journal!
Im also growing in coco first time as i slowly work my way back to my hydro tub. I've gone opposite to you and using coco more as a neutral medium and use nuts in my watering to feed, also decided to do the coco/soil mix because i was scared i forget to water.
Found the ph level my plants like in coco/soil mix is between 5.8-6.2, i like to vary my ph between a range when watering. notice so far 6.2 -6.1 they really like.
In soil (promix) my plants seemed to like 6.6-6.8 but when i use FF i like stay 6.8-7.0. I've added extra cal/mag for coco, found people argue this one with coco, but also did my normal amount (less) and can't see difference so far. I think cal/mag sometimes gets over used because seems to be everyone first thought of whats wrong with plants when sick.
looks great!! and good luck with germination, hope the plant god smile
i hear you bro, end of fall blew arse with rain and no sun. when do you start in ground outside.
Victoria just isn't a good climate for an outdoor grow
. I play golf with a buddy that has green house and does well tho. Just keeping the climate indoors is a challenge during the winter. Not just cold but humidity is a bitch.
I'm growing GG because my Wife doesn't smoke often but when she does she like to think and write. I was hoping to grow a strain that would affect her in a positive way... Also a close friend loves this strain to smoke and recommended it. I'm putting together a variety so I can become a connoisseur, hence harvesting at different stages. I on the other hand, love to get dumb. I'm a top A and it make me relax and in a vegetive state.
I'm very limited experience smoking myself and want it all. Next grow will be several strains.
i use packs, i think they are good idea for weed you store. the jar sitting in your smoking tray i don`t think needs one unless you got extra. the packs are like 62% i think and your at 55% so pretty close.Does anyone use humidity packs? Pros and Cons. I'm in the process of drying and curing last grow and feel a little stupid. everything I put in jars seems to be at about 55%. I harvested over 4 day so I have more hanging that smaller buds don't break cleanly off so I feel like it not ready yet I also feel I waited to long on what I have processed thus far. I still about half hanging.
I have a bunch hydro packs. I'm putting them in each jar. In my research I haven't seen anyone putting them in unless their is a problem with buds being to dry and for storage. I have a bunch of micro thermometer hygrometers. They seem in accurate but all are reading around 55% in the jars so I put hydro pack in all of them. Trimming more today. The buds seem a bit wetter but since I've been waiting to long I'll see what happens today. I guess I was just wondering if they are not Ideal for the cure. I haven't decided on the lights yet, buy leaning towards 18/6 maybe 20/4 on lights.
Isn't 55 a little low? don't I want to get buds to at least 62% Is it ok to cure at 55%?
Yes.. I'm using straight tap water. I have chloramines in the water. The plant will adapt or die... I will ph up when I add molasses unless someone tells me I don't need to because of the organic grow.nice first grow mate. congrats
