Oh please, lol as evidenced by my nutrient screw up on this one I need all the help I can get, all advice is welcome! Besides, I started all three basically at the same time, so to me they kind of count as one, or at the most two since one set is autos and this one is photos. Plus my entire setup is new compared to my grows from like 16 years ago so I'm still figuring everything out.
..
. I didn't take pictures because I planed to repot them. Well life got the better of me and I didn't get a chance to repot until today. I up-potted them into their final homes of 3 gallon fabric pots into more ocean forest and perlite about 75/25 mixture. I moved my LST stakes around and watered them in. I'll post pictures tomorrow after everything has readjusted and is facing the lights again. this tent is now fully dedicated to this photo period grow. I figure I'll let these girls get used to the new pots for about two weeks and then install a trellis net and flip them to 12/12. I've never successfully used a trellis, so I'm excited to see what I can produce using one. I am a touch worried that my light isn't strong enough to flower three plants at once but I guess we';; see what happens. The light is a vivosun VS1000 100 watt led, the tent is a 2.5' X 2.5' X 5'
I always found pot smokers to be people with the most ingenuity, always finding a way to solve a problem. That problem usually being the need of a smoking device but solving problems none the lesssorry, didn't post the pic with my last comment.
It's hot here and my tent temps are high 85-86F and I don't know how to fix that since I'm in a non-airconditioned basement. Hopefully temps come down a bit in a few weeks, but I'll have to see. maybe the flip will help cool the tent down too. Anyway enough rambling here are some pictures.
If you count from when you switch your timer it adds 2 weeks to your finish time.Found my trellis net and got it installed. The girls looked thirsty so they shared 2 gallons between the three of them with two tsp of calmag. I'll let them dry out until Friday and then flip them to 12/12 on what would be week five of veg. I've always been confused do you count weeks of flower from when you change the light cycle, or from when the first pistils show?
Here are the girls.
awesome, I guess I'll turn the lights off on Thursday and get everything ready.If you count from when you switch your timer it adds 2 weeks to your finish time.
But that’s how I log mine.
I turn the lights off for 24 hrs and lights on is day 1 of flower.
Just makes it easier for me to track each grow.
Everyone has the same start as apposed to waiting for pistils which will always vary by strain by a day or two.
Girls look great buddy looking forward to flower.

That is more of a veg light
Hmm, my tents are both 7 square feet so I need about double the light I have now then. Since both are vivosun lights I think I'll try to pick up a 200-250 watt light for the tent running this grow and then move the 100 watt light from this tent into the new tent and run both of those in the same tent. I'd rather not have to get two new lights if I can avoid it. Initial setup costs are getting a bit out of hand for me at the moment, but I dont want to short myself. Both of my harvested grows under this light have been really airy, and from what I'm reading that might be due to royal queen seeds autoflower genetics, but I'm sure my light isn't helpingThat is more of a veg light
I believe they recommend 30/40 watts per sq/ft.
So a 4x4 would be 16 sq/ft at 30 watts needs 480 watts.
I have a VS6450 in my 5x5 flower room.
Freeken excellent light.
