I’ve tried to save the strain on my eyes
the last few days so I could mess around here today and follow up on everyone. If I spend to much of the day on my iPad I totally burn out my eyes so imma get busy.
Yesterday was a top feed with GeoFlora bloom
and water from my fish tank for the girls in the tent. No Cal-Mag or any other supplements but I always add some mosquito bits to the water.
It took 4 hours to get this all accomplished as I released and removed every tiedown and Carhook from every plant. I just couldn’t get in to scratching up the soil and cutting in the nutes this time.
I found a very mild dose of powdery mildew on 5 or 6 leaves of the Chocolate Skunk. So I then removed the leaves and gave it a good defoliation even though she is heavy into flower. I also thinned out the 2 Gorilla Glues then added another fan to the tent.
Finally tinkering with the exhaust scrubber and the inline fresh air speeds I got the R/H down tinto the low 50’.
The Skunk should be ready at around 20 more days so I hope the PW is eliminated and doesn’t spread. The Glues has along ways to go yet.
I put the 2 GG’s in different size pots just to see what difference it would make on the final outcome.
So I have one in a #5gal fabric and one in a #3gal fabric.
The 5gal is five days older then the 3gal yet the 3gal though still slightly smaller then the 5gal had started it’s flowering sooner. Now I realize they are autos and it’s no A B testing but I did find this interesting if it has anything to do with the pot size. I saw a link a couple days ago with a #10gal pot being used on an auto. I want to follow up on that one.
The largest auto I ever grew was a CS from 00 Seeds back in 2020. She grew so much she caught me off guard and got away from me.
I can sure see how that happened now GDB! I’ve got the 4 Skunk quad limbs that stretched well past the edge of the pot. I did manage to keep her down but now the problem she wants a lot more light then the 2 GG’s. I‘ve had to raise her pot up closer to the light.
Right now I’ve got the light roughly 20” from the tops of the GG’ and thar reads about 36k on the LUX meter. That to me seems a little low but the Glues don’t seem to want it any more intense.
Well that about sums up the diddley wampus around here. I hope your week is off and running with calm and happiness.
I do have a couple quotes to reply too.
I loved that last pic in the dark room!
It could definitely replace a TV, recline back into the sofa and gaze at them all day
I‘ll bring in the couch for you guys I’m staying in my chair.
What's it all about, Alpthy?
Looks like an excellent table top to me, and nice idea with the fish water feed. @newty runs a grow op (
Stewart Farms Life), and I believe they use nothing but water from their huge fish tank to feed their plants.
Thanks for that link Shed! Fish poo and flowers I’m all about that.
The Alpthy is my trusty little LUX meter. I’m having trouble getting it up into the 40k for the flowering here. My darn Glues start canoeing up hard anything over 35,000lux and the Skunk wants more. And unlike the lots of everybody here I have few books but lots of audio and that doesn’t help to stacking up.
Oh Nev, salvation would be nice... I know I answered a few days ago about the music but send "prayers"
Always
I can't remember the point at which they flowered... whereabouts were they in days of veg when they bloomed?
When growing autos I start my daily count when the seedling breaks ground and shows the first set of true leaves. Node 1.
After that I will put in my hard copy journal book the day I see pistols form on the plant. That just helps me judge as to how soon they will start their flower. Any thing under 20 days I’ve noticed have given me smaller plants. 21 days and longer normally gives me a much better producing plant.
So I don’t count days in flower I document from day one new leaf to chop on the autos.
That’s just me.
When I grew photos I started the same as day one with the 1st leaves through the veg then I started my flower count days when I flipped my lights to a 12/12 not when the plant showed flower. So my flower day count was from flip to chop. I hope that helps you Carmen it’s just the way I count.
I wonder how many people have heard of the ShedTent.
indoors and in the warmth of the grow room.
Those autos are stunning Nev! Wowza. I’ve Got several bags of the Geo Flora and have never used it so I’m glad to see you using it very successfully with autos. I have hope now that I can too! Regarding your grumpy Gorilla…what size pot is she in compared to the others? I think you mentioned it but, we’ll….
I agree with @Carcass about the leaf droop just before lights out and tilting the right side of that light up a bit like @InTheShed suggested might be helpful too. Are you running your lights at 18/6? What a gorgeous grow! 
It wasn’t worth the stress anyway. My last GG grow turned out fine with one that I thought was always sickly. A least she should be a good yielder and decent smoke for me.
