Can you share some info on your grow with this recipe? Strain? Light wattage? Grams per light? Pics?

Thanks!! Yep, Veg Bloom FTW! This room is an 8 lighter, I've got Cherry Poppins under 1 light and the other 7 have all Gelato 41, with the exception of one plant of my proprietary strains. That one doesn't seem to like this recipe, so I'm going to keep using Botanicare for that particular strain.

What the what?? That looks like it would take 5 minutes to trim the entire plant!!

Yes, I have had PM three different times, one at each of my spots. All years apart. The first time it got me was about a week before harvest, during my second ever grow. I didn't know what it was and thought my entire crop was ruined! 4 lights, 6 pounds and all covered in PM. I was...

You shouldn't get it in your HVAC if you have a good filter, but if it can get through your filter into the HVAC system, so can the sulfur to eat it all up. You could run a sulfur burn while kids are at school and you're at work, then exhaust the house for an hour before you get home. I'm not...

A simple sulfur burn for a few days will completely eradicate PM.

Honestly, at this point, I wouldn't worry about the co2 levels. If the plant is allowed to dry out and the roots start uptaking nutrients, you should see a difference in the buds' formation. Are there any roots coming out of the bottom of the pot? Also, I would switch over to a fabric pot...

Looking at it again, the soil looks really wet. To the OP, do you let the soil dry out between watering/feedings??

I would agree that it's trying to reveg for some reason.

That looks like a sativa, which is going to take longer to flower, but that doesn't account for the lack of flower body. You need much more light.

Hi all, I'm James. Been growing for the better part of the decade and love the info available on this forum. I currently have four good strains I rotate through my rooms as well as two that I've developed myself. I'm going to be getting those two strains certified and then to a cup...

Here is my Cherry Poppins, 30 days in.

I'm curious about the ballasts. It seems everything else has been addressed, unless I missed it. Might be worth checking into, if everything started degrading at the same time with no other explanation. I know that generally speaking, ballasts either work or don't, but you never know!

Welp, I just recently got a new veg/bloom recipe from a buddy. I've been using it since Oct 18. I've been working on honing my recipe with mixed results, some good, some bad. That's not due to the product, but due to my inexperience with it. Anyhoodle, the recipe my homey gave me is a bit...
