Topping definitely slows the growth of outer (or lower) branches. If you top your plant, I would suggest doing so at a point that allows you to pull your outer branches to the outside and your inner branches to the inside. I set my branches with gardening string and force the upper branches to...

For those who are interested, I’ve been adding pictures to my profile with descriptions. I feel like an old man. I haven’t quite figured out how forums work and I really don’t care. 😜 When I joined THCFarmer, I was just looking for a place to record photos, data, and exchange ideas. Nothing I do...

Basically, you can’t force a plant to do more work with wattage. You CAN create an environment in which plants will grow to their maximum potential. Wattage may be a determining factor in that equation but I’m certain it’s not the only variable to be considered.

I’ve heard a lot about gram per watt ... and I’m no expert, but even my 2000 watt light produces different levels of light at different heights. PAR. until/m/s2, PPFD. I ran my first batch @ pax 1200 PPFD. I ran my second batch @ 2000 PPFD. Same genetics, same results. someone told me that the...

Dang, I have this post watched but it never notified me. Sorry to keep everyone hanging. I’m not sure how to find messaging on THC farmer yet either but if you have any questions about Fox farms products, I do believe I have it figured out for cannabis growing. It’s not that difficult, just mix...

It’s funny you said that. I said the exact same friggin thing! 3rd time is the charm? I haven’t gotten to that point yet, but this time I bought Fox Farm anti-fungal gnat spray so we will see

Sorry for the delayed response, I didn’t set up notifications I guess. My aggravations with Fox Farms was mainly my own. Kudos to Fox Farms for being awesome. Yes, it was a little confusing but they’re not wrong, I was just confused because I’m a little OCD. horticulture, botany, none of which...

If you need pH down after adding Fox Farm nutrients, something is probably wrong. The only time I ever use pH down is when I’m preparing rainwater without nutrients.

I’m not sure why I’m just now seeing this, but I test my water after I add nutrients. I don’t have an accurate means of measuring what comes out, as I tend to add just enough water to create a drip but never really accumulates into a puddle. My tester stays in the soil permanently. I check it...

I’m on a full Fox Farm regimen in soil with no issues. 3rd grow. It is tedious but I’d say that the coffee cup you had the plant in was probably insufficient for its size. I take my seedlings directly into a 7 gallon pot, which helps me manage the overburden of nutrients. There’s just no way for...

One of the methods that I use is to avoid overwatering. It’s tough, but if you can get a good grasp on what your plants need each day, you can avoid this altogether. I’m a little OCD, so I have a pitcher and I record how much water I give and how much runs off. This is only my third grow, but so...

-First, I prep rainwater, pH balancing it to 6.0 -Then, I put a thin layer of that water in the bottom of my propagator. -I widen and deepen the hold on my root riot plug, just to about an inch or so deep and so that the hole is wide enough to accommodate a seed but still closes on its own. I...

The mother plant yield was 298.8 grams of bud One of her clones came out around 16 grams of bud. total yield should be in the neighborhood of 924 grams from one plant and 39 clones. On a side note, it’s not the stinkiest bud ive ever smoked, but it’s without a doubt the second best head space...

Over the past week I’ve been running a test to figure out if there’s a reason to pH balance the water/nutrients i feed my plants. I have 39 clones and a soil pH meter half of the clones got pH balanced water and nutrients, the other half just got water and nutrients. Here are my findings...

Good advice. I realized last night that I wasn’t going to recycle runoff water. I might pump rainwater through the system if I notice the galvalum heating up under the light. Thanks again.

I was going to add cal-mag to my third grow regimen but a series of people led me to believe that I didn’t need cal-mag in my soil. I was led to believe that cal-mag might be more of a hydro type nutrient ... is that wrong?

The biggest design flaw of my second grow was my inability to water clones to runoff or flush, so I’ve been working on this design in my head for months. Today was the day I decided to make it happen. Thankfully, I had everything that I needed just sitting around, waiting to be used. I’d...

I noticed nobody has replied to your rust spots. I’d help but I’m noob and don’t know enough to be giving advice. Try posting questions about the rust spots in the infirmary. I’m curious to know myself. Good luck.

Momma is done. Still no amber but her leaf cannibalism hit the sugar leaves and I didn’t want to risk another day so she’s down. I also took her most mature clone. I still have 40 more clones. I’ll probably take three or four more clones by Friday. The rest came in at different stages, and...
