If this is your genetics you're also using indoors and you're getting new premium lights you're going to have the absolute mad gas. Because thats really frosty and well formed for greenhouse bud. Indoors it will be amazing.

The flower pics are of Blueberry Muffin.
the indoor is PGG#4.
I wasn’t able to get any clones that took root.

Another question…..
In the manual for the Photontex is says not to turn lights on or off under load. I wanted to put them on a timer. Is this possible? Or do I need to buy their controller?

Damn. That Blueberry looks like a real champ. Hopefully you can get more genetics from the same people. With the genetics and those lights and some new techniques you're going to nail it. I think if you harvest the plant and let it regenerate and and reveg you could retain the genetics. A bit of a project. But a way save the lineage. Good stuff.

With lights that nice. You should use what they advise. For warranty and stuff. If they sell a timer I'd go with that. It's around 350 to 400. And I think you have to use it. It's premium stuff.

We will try to reveg the BBM and clone. The BBM is from seed so it handled my ignorance of being a new grower very well.
I have no idea what I’m doing, but I’m trying. I will fully admit the BBM can handle some abuse.

The lights are up and the plants are trimmed to basically sticks! What leaves are left on them are already stretching out and LOVING the lights!

 

[Oldchucky]

Awesome!

I am hoping some of you will come back and help me.

I am seriously thinking of changing the soil out of those pots. It has been several days since I watered them and the soil is still way to wet. I will be putting something under the pots as well.

What is the best way to change the soil out? Transplant completely or very gently little by little dig the current soil out and replace with new soil?
I have some 3 gallon fabric pots I can transplant them into as well. They are in 5 gallon pots now. I don't think we are going to let them get to much bigger, as soon as they are healthy again, we will be flipping them.

Good morning. Transplanting into some well draining well pearl lighted soil might be a good idea. But I would want a pot at least the same size as you are transplanting out of standing by. What if you have a 5 gallon root ball when you pull it you probably won’t be able to stuff it into a 3 gallon pot. Never heard of anyone down potting.I’ve never had a problem up pottingOr same size potting. Maybe your root ball is not developed enough and could possibly get it into a 3 gallon pot but you won’t know till it’s too late.I’ve always sacrificed the old pot. I take a big knife and run it around the inside of the pot to separate the medium from the pot then cut down the sides of the pot and peel them down and run a knife under the bottom to minimize the lovely ripping sound that you hear when you separate the two. Probably a two-man job. Roofs are pretty tough I’ve never killed one transplanting. Heard of people trimming roots with scissors. Can’t testify to that. I have freed the sides then work my hands down and under the root ball to gently free the bottom. Then reuse the pot. That’s when you’ll hear some ripping. LOL maybe your roots haven’t Grown into the fabric so it might be a piece of cake. Others should chime in. Just my two cents worth.

Or maybe you could take a sharp object and ventilate the hell out of the pot your end including the bottom and get him up off the floor and see if they dry out quicker. It’s pretty dry around here so that might work.

One at a time and observe the results. No more of this all of your eggs in one basket bullshit, neighbor! Lol

You definitely need to transplant before flipping. It will benefit very much and you can probably avoid future issues. I would do a pro mix hp mix with extra perlite.

Maybe a 7 or 10 gallon pot.
