Galgrows outdoor & indoor summer in Oregon

[Galgrows]

Just a thought and of what i notice about my tent. I keep the small floor flaps open all the time and a couple of top an side port hole ones even on 12/12. Now i use to close the whole tent down when i first learned indoor growing and had the old school LED and ran 2 lights at a time at one time. But to me it was just too dang hot in the tent even when i had my 4x4x72" one. So i started opening flaps on the bottom and the top exaust port. The room is darkened with curtains and i still leave all flaps open even the door is opened alittle. I been doing this for several years now and have never to my knowledge nor harvested a hermi. And rarely dealt with any PM on leaf as i used to when things got all shut up. I know it cause i'm in a semi dry area, my house is well insulated and heat & cooled. I've had mycellium growth on top of soil and abit of green alge before but i'm not concerned. My pots dry out well and i'm not getting slim on the outsides of the fabric. I was getting so much salt and green alge on these bags but no longer. Anyway just felt like shooting the sheet.

I do the same in my little tent

Hello from the grow these gals are getting into the 30days of flower mark and doing fine. Still have'nt corrected the under fed N issue but i've used the Recharge 2x now and today i just fed them the bloom nute. Next indoor grow i'm gonna use plastic 5gal with holes drilled in for more root space and grow just 2 photoperiods not decided which strains yet but they won't be same strains. Other than this yellowing they really have not been any problems for the basic type of grows i do. I'm hoping for a early Thankgiving pull for these gals so i can leave for 2-3days otherwise they'll just be left all alone with the cat for company. My dogs go everywhere with me. Very well behaved pups.

Well i'm going to do a smoke test on the Purple kush x white widow cross from the summer grow. It's been jarred for about 30days now. It's the mom plant of the 3 clones in the tent i've got going now. Mom is the 2nd&3rd pic. Another mistake on my part AGAIN by not adding more N to the nute mix hence i think the yellowing midflower like all the rest same old dumb mistake on most of my grows. The 2x i've fed the Recharge is not showing any difference in leaf but i'm sure the roots like it sure is not hurting them.

Anyway i rolled 2 doobies for this evening after my dinner LOL. I'm gonna smoke 1 take a break then the other 1/2hr later. Could the mom of stayed out longer, yes she could but i was battling rot do to the catipillars so that's the story. The ol "2more wks" would of been nice but i needed the weed so i took it all milky maybe some amber. Now those tent sisters they'll go as far as i can without degradation on the trichs. I sure hope i don't sit there with racy thoughts i'll just pull out the blueberry muffin bud and give that a go, it's a decent smoke just not potent like i was use to. Hey whatcha think about those Ducks..........quack quack

They look great. Glad the recharge didn't hurt them, sorry it didn't help like you hoped.

I'm going to try some of my 5 year old weed I dry sifted last winter.
TOGYK said by this time it should be degraded and I probably don't have to decarb it. We'll see tonight.
I don't want to try it during the day when I should be getting the house ready for Thanksgiving.
I know it's a few weeks away, but I HATE cleaning and have to talk myself into it, every time. LOL

Interested to see how the non-Decarb effect is in edibles! Ducks look good! But they have been close before! Hope it’s their year!

OK 9 days since last update on my tent. Thorasic back spasams have been keeping me back from enjoying hobbies or shopping. Got a call into my Dr. this morning promised my family i'd do it. We usually strong independent old goats don't like sitting and not doing. Was doing fine but about a month ago got a horrible head/chest cold coughed to hard for a couple weeks felt better then moved my large terracota pots into shelter for the winter and i think that's also a factor in the spasams. Anyhow i'm OK just careful moving about. Bending and going upright is kinda scary ya feel the tightness then it grabs you and takes your breath. Once 10yrs or so back i held a toilet up so my husband could paint a wall behind it (dumb ass me ) well i popped/tore a ligament along my ribs that's what it feels like.

Enough complaining here's my tent. 3 purple kush x white widow clones now only 2weeks into flower and i got some yellowing bad from bottom to middle. I've been feeding bloom 3-12-6 2x now and probley underfed them ( my curse ) they were so beautiful while in veg. I've lowered them down on short plastic risers, turned the dial down to 75% briefly had it at 100% it's a 250watt draw from the wall. Plants sit at 23" from light at the tallest colas most are at 26" on the rest of them. This morning was time for the feeding so i did go ahead and mix a bloom food and added some fish/guano to the jugs. I had burnt tips and so i thought it was N enough but now after just 2wks of bloom they really began yellowing? I use city water that i fill jugs with and they sit for at least 4 days or longer before i mix the ferts. Does any think i need extra cal. mag.? All i use also for that is epsome salts. Suggestions welcome

Hey! Thanks for the update. I'm sorry to hear about your back spasms; that sounds really tough. It's great that you're taking care of yourself and reaching out to your doctor. As for your plants, it sounds like you're doing a lot right, but yellowing can definitely be frustrating.

Based on what you described, it might be worth adding some calcium and magnesium if you're not seeing improvement. Epsom salts can help, but sometimes a dedicated cal-mag supplement can provide more balanced nutrition. Keep an eye on those yellowing leaves and adjust your feeding as needed.

I hope your plants bounce back soon, and take care of yourself while you're at it! Looking forward to your next update!

Hey thank you for asking and the kind wishes. Yes that could be the issue and now i'm leaning towards the light output also. I've use epsom salts many times on plants. I've now turned it down to 60% just to see it that makes a difference. I feel so much better i blew leaves and mowed yesterday between the rain and sun coming out LOL. Feel fine this a.m. i'm a tough ol farm gal.

Doing fair, glad your flowers agree with ya.
Tried my hand at making brownie brittle today. May have mucked things up trying to get it to dry hard so I could pulverize it.
Kept putting the cookie sheets back in the oven, totally forgetting to keep the temp low.
Memory and focus keep getting away from me. (couldn't be my age (68), NO. LOL)

Took a small sample about 2 hours ago, but not feeling anything but the beer. LOL

Young squirt! How did the five year old sift work? If you can, remember!

Oh, come on, you must have some that old weed laying around somewhere. LOL

I do! Out in a tote in the barn! Was just wondering about the decarb thing! You may never have to decarb again If you just start using your five year old and proceed from there! I was just wondering! Take it easy! Time to go look at the girls before It gets dark!

Good morning farmers today is day 30 of flower on my photoperiods. They are doing well i've turned down the lamp to see if it helps with the yellowing and the top portions look much greener and does not seem to effect the swelling of the buds. And it's a feeding day for them with a teaspoon of molasses mixed with the bloom food. 64fluid oz each 3gal container. I pull them out of the tent and set them in plastic runoff catchers. I pour 1/2 the 64oz wait abit then pour the rest. They'll sit in that for 10-15min then i place them back into the tent on their risers. I wipeup any drips or small puddles just like i did with the kids after their meals LOL

Last photo is my 40+ yr old cactus which blooms 3x a year. No i won't ever be able to lift her and don't do much other than water her about 1xmonth and give her left over nutes from my tent grows. She's just outstanding and loves that spot where she sits. I've given many small starts to my family and friends.

I forgot to mention........i saw the seeds forsale again from whom i bought this strain from so i looked at the photos of post grows from this strain white lady. Most do show she yellows out alot for some reason?? I think it's the LEDs cause she did not do so much with the mother of these outdoors. That's why i turned down my lamp........ta da and thank you

Hey Gal.....yeah, a deficiency expert I am not.....but to me, it looks normal......I've had plants look almost neon green.....wondering wtf to do.....again I'm definitely not the person to ask advice about deficiencies......

I think she's just a finicky plant....

Looks great in there!!!

Update on this grow nothing much to do other than wait. Day 35 of flower still have the yellow color leaf i just gave them water yesterday without anything else. I have been feeding bloom every watering and recharge but just did'nt this time. I have forgotten how these plants do during winter grows inside. Pots take longer to dry and the humidity really climbs when lights are out and tent is closed for their sleep. It's in the 65-75%RH when i open the tent at 0720 that's when lights come on. Tent stays pretty warm though 70f according to my thermometer inside it.

In April when i start my seeds for outdoor summer i'm gonna really increase my wormcastings in my soil mix during transplant in the big 15gal pots. And do more top dressings. I probley could of top dressed these with more worm poop may of helped lesson the yellowing. The buds are frosting up nicely and dropping suger onto other leaves. Well about Nov15 these outta be close to harvest.

Have a good day i'm bathing my dogs today after i bath myself LOL. Save the tub water after the shower and refill it then toss the dogs in. Make them smell real purrrty.
