Cuz I dunno wtf I’m doing brutha, lol. I thought you start it around the 2nd week of flowering and then let up a few weeks before harvest? My genetics on this plant are weird tho. It didn’t start flowering until week 7 and I’m going into week 10 and these buds are slow from the heat shock I assume or it’s just a slow growing auto? I used FFOF and honestly regret buying any nutes from AN. It was doing fine before I started using any of it and it just got over fed with even the quarter recommended dose. I should’ve just waiting till I saw some deficiencies and used the jacks 321 method. I’m keeping this all in a grow journal and learning a ton as I go. I dig the criticism tho, most people are too sensitive to get called out when they do dumb shit like use big bud too soon ;)You’re using Big Bud why? That plant is nowhere near time for that. Read the instructions on the bottle.
Just wondering. I’m from El Paso. Strongly recommend a misting setup. Your humidity is the problem and not the heat. They can take the heat. Trust me.Cuz I dunno wtf I’m doing brutha, lol.

In canada. We are about to hit 110 degrees. Lost a few plants. Going veg only for 2 months now. Crazy. You guys got it rough in summer.Just wondering. I’m from El Paso. Strongly recommend a misting setup. Your humidity is the problem and not the heat. They can take the heat. Trust me.
Yeah I got 40% shade cloth off Amazon. It cuts the light but the heat is unrelentingIf the sun ever becomes scorching, just use a screen off your home window. It will cut down quite a bit of sunlight. Might not look like it, but, get a meter and you'll see. Also, use more than one. It's not expensive, obviously, and screen do work. ;) I'm having to use one in my room because my plants grew too tall and I don't want them to burn... don't have a dimmer, so, just rigged up SS screen, and viola.
Everyone says to not get the leaves wet? We have wicked hard water and when you have a mister going it just leaves mineral deposits on everything like crazy. I think that would be bad for the leaves no? I could go with a prefilter but that’s just more shit to buy if you know what I mean.Just wondering. I’m from El Paso. Strongly recommend a misting setup.

I have a design for an athmosphere water collector. If you have a yard, you can get a free 10 gallons a day (about) to feed your plants.It’s terrifying and NOBODY down here is paying attention to lake mead. If the damn looses power wtf are people going to do? Keep watering your shitty lawns at your golf courses and Scottsdale McMansions. Time to fire up the desal plant in southern AZ and get ready to pay triple for your water and watch everything go up$$$$$$.
Do a string filter on your water, just to remove excess particulates.Everyone says to not get the leaves wet?

Don’t sweat the small shit. Monsoon will take care of any deposits. The humidity is the big deal. And mulch as several suggested is great. And get a shade cloth and get it up over it so it covers it in the hottest part of the day.Everyone says to not get the leaves wet?

Sand gets extremely hot though. Radiates.I think I would cover my soil with a layer of sand. Do you think you can find any down there? Most people down there also refer to it as a yard.
If the humidity is really bad, then you need some sort of breeze through the plant to prevent mold.Awesome info, honestly I didn’t take humidity very serious at all and now it’s a problem. I’m going to zip ties my string mister to the shade and get some straw for the plant. The whole are is mulched as is but I keep the plant in a fabric pot that set into a slightly larger hole to keep the pot from drying so quickly. I think I’ll set up the mister to a timer to come on in timed intervals during the day and I’ll see how that works. Hopefully our southern moisture will get me thru to end of July before it’s a big deal. Thanks for all the advice, I appreciate it when people share their secrets to help the community. And downtown Phoenix has shitty clay ground, zero sand and zero organic matter, it’s awful shit and nothing grows.
Lol. Humidity in summer in AZ is an issue of low humidity. Like less than 15%. He won’t be facing mold. Not until maybe November.If the humidity is really bad, then you need some sort of breeze through the plant to prevent mold.
Make sure your shade doesn't block air flow.
