These were started from bag seed if I remember right. Kinda making sense why.

I grow my own “bag seeds” and have never had a problem. Likely because I corrected the stress that reversed the mother?

Could be... Lotsa seeds in the bag seed would lead me to believe the parents had herm tendancy

I should add that's all speculation

Yeah was like a solid nug 1.2 if I recall correctly

Thats not so weird. We have all grown seeded lower buds. Its from nanners above dropping pollen on them.

I got 35 unknown fem seeds from my recent mistakes. 3 are growing now. And despite my mistakes only nanners in the room are on a fresh blt plant. Lol.


But all the plants having balls and nanners and female flowers is rare.

Yeah most my balls are on the lower new growth. But some locations under the big buds up top has the open sacs so nutted down on them lmao

So what harm can come from here on out if I started to feed a bit more heavily. Last feed was 534 total ppm water was @ 157 ppm so only 381 were nutes and I have been flirting with and that maybe 400 something the highest in total nutes.

Yeah thats pretty low ec. But i only go up gradually with nutes. So I wouldnt raise it too much at once. Especially if the roots are recovering.

I like to feed every time once the soil is depleted. When things are going well I can adjust every 3 days or so in flower as needed or water only.

Ok 10 4 imma add some top soil. The soil is dry and feels thin I moved it and my whole sack feels like roots the top moves like a sponge when I push down. But will raise ppm a lil at a time.

Hey Roland, keep it rolling bro, you are over half way, no way you quit now.

Thanks bro I am gotta make it to the finish line.

So today I backed my lights off a bit from the plants. And did another feeding. Opened my tent and was like yeah they need food and water. Thought my plants were smoking crack over night. So my total ppm was 710. The water was 156 and the nutes were 554. This is higher then I have been giving them and probably way less then what they should be getting in this stage of flower. I have had many issues with them mostly because of me lmao. Gotta love the learning curve right ha ha ha . But after their feed and time back in my tent they are all looking normal again. So other then that now we wait to see them stack.

So since I still have a few weeks of flower left before harvest I figured I'd ask the guys in soul do you guys add anything for flavor or something to help with budding or thc build up.?

Day time temps

You may want to increase those temps for better uptake and growth. Especially with led i understand.

I like 76-77 under my 600’s. No more though for best trichome production and flavor.

These are the results of my first grow. I used bloomspec 1000w leds, cococore and General Hydroponics nutrient line.

Does anyone have any magic tricks to increase temps in your tent? I'm kind of skeptical about running a space heater because my tent is so small so no matter where i place the damn thing it will still be too close to something flammable and that freaks me out.

I've heard that the temperature of the rootball is what really matters. Is that true? Could i just put a heat mat down under my pot? Its been super cold for the past week in SoCal and my plant is definitely feeling it. Growth has slowed WAY down and leaves are turning very purple. I upped the phosphorous a little bit to hopefully combat it but not sure if its going to work.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

This is what i'm experiencing as of now for reference;

I use an inkbird ITC-308 attached to my exhaust fan. That allows the HID lamps to heat up the room and the fan only vents when it reaches a set point.

I use fan speed controllers to control temp. Just turn down the exhaust.
