what do you mean?

what do you mean?

the trichome heads can easily be broken by grabbing the buds all the time..

In general, if you harvest with a few clear and most milky trichomes the effect will be a little more uplifting. Amber trichomes will add to the couch lock effect if that's what you're going for.

ahhh that makes sense can you do both cloudy and amber?

ahh okay yeah definitely won’t touch them lol

Yes you can buy them at nursery all over! There is such a thing as treated wood so water has no affect, here I the PNW it's used all the time!

Luckily treated wood no longer uses creosote as the treatment method I can’t remember what it switched to. Spent 15 years in general construction. Personally I wouldn’t put treated wood in my tent (or in my garden), maybe it’s an old wives tale but it’s one I’ll heed myself. I can find metal alternatives, I used metal planter stands from dollar general with my 5 gallon fabric pots they where $3 each

They are under these plants, about 14” tall they held up fine with 5 gallon fabric pots as well as 5 gallon buckets, if you’re worried about the legs spreading just run a piece of 12 gauge wire through the feet so they can’t open up

not much to update, buds look to be gettinf slightly bigger and my plant looks very healthy. bag is still a little heavy after watering/feeding from saturday. possibly need another watering either tuesday or wednesday. plant is now 10 weeks old and 6 weeks into flower. we may have to wait a few more days but what would we feed her this next watering/feeding?

The same feeding @GNick55 put together with the wholly mackerel 5ml flower fuel at half of small scoop, and 15-20ml big bloom.

You might even be able to skip a feeding and just water this time. Shes looking really good now.

okay, i guess i can post pics the day before feeding and see if she would need more nutes or just plain Ph’d water.

it wouldn’t be bad to skip a feeding? how would she benefit just from water? just curious.

There are probably some leftover nutes in there somewhere and you definitely don't want to overfeed. You're in ocean forest right?

ahh i gotcha, and yes i am using ocean forest, i did mix in some earthworm castings as well when i potted my soil.

so just do a gallon of Ph’d water the next watering/feeding?

 

[ayeob]

morning everyone, my bag is really light today, i think feeding and/or watering will be needed tomorrow, possibly today? what should i use this time?

@Goodshit97 mentioned maybe just use plain water.

let me know what i should do this feeding/watering.

Can we get a shot from above the plant? Hard to tell what the leaves are saying

yeha no problem!

 

[Goodshit97]

I would say give them plain tap water this time. Its looking real good and you definitely dont want a buildup in your soil from overfeeding.

okay so i full gallon of water? also should i PH it as well? i usually Ph it at 6.8 is that good? also what should my humidity be at? mine hovering around 50 right now should it be lower or higher?

I never pH my water, doesnt mean you cant do it. Ocean forest has ph buffers in it to keep ph in check all on its own.
Whats your temp? 40-50% is good.

 

[ayeob]

okay maybe i won’t then. what’s to high for tap water just in case mine is high. and my temp now is 73 since the light just came on about 2 hours ago. usually gets up to 75-76ish

 

[Mikedin]

Mine runs 7.3ish, on plain water days I just water it straight, well I let it sit in 5 gallon Water jugs overnight but that’s it, but I do PH when I feed I’m usually around 6.4 on feed days with neuts added works out nice.

I would PH every time but I don’t have time most days I’m in and out of the tents and off to work lol

Mine runs like 7.6-8.3 when i was checking it. Now i just use it and never check it cause my testers are all shot lol

ooops i haven’t been PHing my nute water. is that bad? but okay i will check my water and see how it is. i have time so i think i may PH it.

might be a stupid question but is it safe to leave the grow light on when you leave the house? just curious.
