i want to start bringing my temps down to bring out the colors in the gdp but when should i start doing that ? right now i am around 72-79 lights on and 65 to 72 lights off
I’m never lucky enough to win anything.How dose one get gifted a light like that?
Keep day 70-73ish and night drop to 60-65. Last week 70 highest day and 60 night. Should be popping the colors if the genetics are there.i want to start bringing my temps down to bring out the colors in the gdp but when should i start doing that ? right now i am around 72-79 lights on and 65 to 72 lights off
ok thank you i was wondering if anyone was ever gonna answer thatKeep day 70-73ish and night drop to 60-65. Last week 70 highest day and 60 night. Should be popping the colors if the genetics are there.
Also goes along way to preservation of terps.
Yeah you need to start increasing your bloom feed right now this is when they usually really start packing. As long as you are not seeing any brown on the tips then you should slowly increase the concentration of your bloom blend. Its hard for me to tell from that last pic but Im pretty sure they can handle a bit more. Remember not all strains finish right at that 8 weeks they can go 9 weeks. Some sativa strains (probably not yours) can even go over well over 10 weeks.im about to be in week 6 will these buds/cola's keep getting longer for another week or 2 ? isn't the last 2 weeks when they get bigger and put on the weight ?
well i can wait it out as long as i need to i still got some smoke lol i still do not see these producing as much as the autos with my newbie eyes just looking just doesnt seem like it is as much lol right now there about as big around as a bananaYeah you need to start increasing your bloom feed right now this is when they usually really start packing.

Its about the weight. I can't tell you exactly how its gonna come out because every grower is different with temps, lights, nutes, ect... But what I can tell you is that when I grew that GDP it made REALLY dense flowers. At least the mom did it was the best pheno and thats why I saved the seeds from that one. Thats why I sent it to you. I wish I took pictures of the finished trimmed flower so you could understand what Im talking about no offense to the Autos you finished but this GDP cut blew that stuff out of the water. I saw the pics of your finished auto it was good super frosty but more fluffy. The GDP came out way different more like clinic herb it was rock hard buds. The flowers weren't giant maybe a little bigger around than a quarter. But when you filled up an 1/8th in a ziplock it was tripping people out, it looked like I was shorting people. The small dense flowers weighed so much that the baggie looked more empty even though the weights were dead on. Remember its all about the weight.well i can wait it out as long as i need to i still got some smoke lol i still do not see these producing as much as the autos with my newbie eyes just looking just doesnt seem like it is as much lol right now there about as big around as a banana
well don't forget I'm new at growing , i can tell by looking at them that they are gonna be dense i was not complaining at all about it i hope you did not take it that way . i do understand a little about the phenos and genetics like out of 5 of the gdp 2 are short and stocky and 3 are taller the gdp you liked so much is probablyIts about the weight.

Now of course just because the mom was awesome doesn't mean all the offspring will be exactly like her, there probably will be some pretty descent phenotype variation. This is why its so important to learn how to take cuts, one of those females could be the one Im talking about and then if you saved it you can use that best cut on your whole run next time. I know you are short on space but all you need is a little clone dome. Also maybe a cheap and inexpensive tiny T5 or florescence bulb. Clones barely need any light as a matter of fact strong lights kill them. You don't even need a separate tent for this at my old house I just put the clone dome in the corner of my closet and hung a cheap light above them from a piece of rope. Add a cheap digital timer and your done. I just kept my closet door closed so it didn't keep me awake at night, I wedged the whole rig right next to my sweatshirts and jackets I just shoved that shit to the side and made the space. Remember clones don't smell at all and they are very tiny. They also don't need perfect darkness like flowering plants a cabinet or closet is fine you can stash them anywhere.
Sorry perhaps my reply came out a little awkward in no way did I think you were complaining. Everything is all good. The colas are definitely gonna get bigger. They will fatten up and probably get a little longer also. When I made that comment about your last Auto grow it may have come off harsh. What I meant by it is that having seen your last Auto grow and also knowing how this GDP can perform, Im quite confident that once completed you will be pleasantly surprised in both quality and yield.well don't forget I'm new at growing , i can tell by looking at them that they are gonna be dense i was not complaining at all about it i hope you did not take it that way . i do understand a little about the phenos and genetics like out of 5 of the gdp 2 are short and stocky and 3 are taller the gdp you liked so much is probably
15 inches tall nothing but colas with no spacing and they already feel dense
i know the plants them self are not gonna get taller but i was just curious if the colas them self will continue to grow until its time for them to fatten up like a hog lol
its good i just didnt want you to think i was complainingSorry perhaps my reply came out a little awkward in no way did I think you were complaining. Everything is all good.

On the change in light cycle back to 18hrs. I contemplated it and did some research.
Don't do it even if you don't see reveg. The plants shift to vegetative growth and thus leads to a complete stall, stunting and production of terpenes, cannabinoids etc. from almost everything I have found on it.
will keeping the temps that low stop the plant from growing ?Keep day 70-73ish and night drop to 60-65. Last week 70 highest day and 60 night. Should be popping the colors if the genetics are there.

My answer to that is no, not what so ever, Cannabis, some strains more then others can handle a lot of cold, in fact cannabis is grown in winter in some place, milder winter but still cold. one key is you have to keep the roots at least 16 c or warmer, above ground the temps need to be above the frost temperature.. Not saying its optimal grow or growing conditions but I think most people would be surprised how cold you can grow cannabis in. When I say about cold temps in the last 2 weeks, I mean cold like in the 30's-40's.will keeping the temps that low stop the plant from growing ?
