My 1st Medical Grow - Thanks To NukeHeads

Derbybud said:
Yes they should. They need moisture in the air when vegging. Now in flower you need to keep things under 50% after there 3 week stretch.

I have not put them into flower mode yet. Right now they are just on 20 hour light with 4 hours rest time. This has been there lighting since 9/21.

I'm wondering if it is now time to switch the lighting to start the flower process?

Thanks again for help

I would wait a week or 2 with your humidity up to help make the plant stronger before I would flip. Let's see her again the weekend to see how she responds to the humidity
 
What's the watering regimen like? How often do you water or feed and you have good drainage? I find myself wondering if it would be beneficial for you to up-pot, but looking at your ladies I would try and get them healthier before attempting a transplant. That NukeHead looks super bushy, I think they will all be impressive in flower, they took on a nice structure, multiple tops competing for dominance. It may help to increase the differential in day and night temps a little bit. Ten to fifteen degrees difference would probably be good. That may help them put on some size but may also increase node spacing. Other than what looks like a little overwatering, they look good dude! .

For water. I do the nutes on Tuesday and then regular water on Friday.

I'm using about half gallon on all three plants. Bottom of pots have 12 holes that I cut out (quarter inch). I'm trying my best with them. I will take more photos on Sunday and see if there is better growth. I just did the towel (damp) and put in front of the fan to blow towards the girls.

I'm excited. Just wish I knew what I was doing lol. For my first grow. I'm still happy with how my Nuke and orange cream looks :-)

Now with all your advice. It's time to step it up a notch :-) hoping this will be the game changer :-)

Since your in veg still, try spraying her with straight up water to increase humidity. I would spray an hour before lights out so avoid any damage the light may cause refracting through the water droplets. It's more like a bandaid but if you change that bandaid daily, it will help.

I've sprayed plants (veg and flowering) during lights on and regular water never caused burns on the plants during lights on. Add something like soap or nutrients and that will change though and the lights can and will cause small burn spots all over the leaves you spray. Just stuff I noticed my last grow when spraying my girls is all. Hell I used to never spray any of my plants even the cuttings lol but now I'm finding myself spraying my smaller girls more now just every once and again .. just regular water of course and if I'm going to spray them with a neem oil mixture or capt jacks bug spray or something then I'll be sure to spray when I cut the lights out so I don't burn them. I'd say my worst concern with spraying my flowering girls last grow was humidity since my humidity was already well into the 60's+ but the airflow dried everything nice and quick so that was never a problem.
 
Good morning everyone!

I just wanted to wish you all a Merry Christmas and appropriate all your help! I just changed the time to 12/12 to get my girls going. They are looking petty good so far. I have a question about the mars light. - There are two switches on it. Growth and Bloom... I have only been using the growth during veg... Now that I switched - Do I turn on that Bloom button and shut off the growth? or flip them both on?

Pics will be posted soon.. and I will be more active with this journal! with a TON of questions. :-)

Smoke one for me!

Turn both on Jay for full power, I run both the whole grow cause I've heard plants will do better cause they have a broader spectrum. I have seen people do good with just the veg light on plus it saves electricity but a couple veteran growers told me both is best lol..️
 
They are now on full blast guys!! Tonight will be the first 12/12 starting 6pm till 6am..

This is a big step!!! I'm nervous! I will be happy with even an OZ out of all 3 since it is my first time. Hoping for more though due to the "nuke" and that weird 3leaf.... hoping none of them turn male.. Wow I made it this far lol
I doubt this will effect my electric bill too much since it is leds?

The most important thing is your getting experience and learning everyday and I bet you will take what you learn the rest of this grow and do even better next time. I'm sure you will be pumping out tons of bud in know time lol...️
