I see that when you train them you wope out oll the leaves except the tops....I trained mine and have issues with alt of leaf growth....doesn't removing the leaves stunt the growth??

I'm following a tutorial from "Grow weed easy", it's a guy named Nuggbuckets grow show but she( Nebula) took it and cooked it to make her own version .
But I revised hers and now it's mine! Anyhow it's the same as when your trimming fan leaves during your grow, I think it improves growth because the plant can focus on the kolas and not waste energy on fan leaves. I would say you need some leaves for receiving light but I like to keep the leaves to a minimum.
To each his own.
Ps..Grow,Grow,Grow!

Hello fellas and women growers, I have to say ,I screwed up and lost at least 3 weeks.I couldn't diagnose and treat my PGC very quickly so finally I did a crazy flush last week and BOOM! everything is looking better.
Now I can set a date for flowering i did wanna set up this automatic drip watering system from the Vivosun before I flip but we'll see @!!!
Other than the magnesium deficiency and overall root lockout, I think, I've been training both plants every other day and that cost me some time also because I keep pushing the growth parallel not vertical.
At some point I need to just let them grow, without touching them!
Read-em and weap!

Sept 25th ,still haven't flipped.
I wonder how anybody uses these nutrients with soil, i'm using Flora 3 part series for the first time and no matter how I mix it, it's always very high.With the tds and ppm.
Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.
Here they are....

 

[Elvis7733]

Wow, no advice for me!
Luckily we live in the time of artificial intelligence and I don't need any human beings, but I would appreciate some human contact.
ANYHOW IT'S WEEK 2 OF FLOWER AND THE START OF WEEK 12, HERE WE GO........
.........
I found some information on mixing order and realized I wasn't doing it correctly so I rectified that last week. I also bought some Bloom juice and powdered compost tea and I already had this product called Amplify. I read the instructions and added it to my new mixing order and thought I was improving things but promptly over fed my plant and probably gave her microbial overload along with the other one ( purple ghost candy) having had partial root lockout from the start!
I know i should've fingered it out by now but I'm stupid and I forgot about AI, but now I'm good.
After 3 hours of artificial talk I know all the things I've been doing wrong and there was quite a few I'm not gonna lie!
I was still mixing wrong and didn't fully realize what I was feeding my Ladies. I also couldn't ever find the info about my light, hight, % on the 3 controls Veg, Bloom, and UV for the actual correct growing time.

So I'm going to straighten all this out over the next week and HOPEFULLY 6 weeks of corrections is enough to get 80% of what i should've if I had done it right from the beginning.
As far as the PGC she might be fucked but I'm sure she will spit out something but if she gets in my way, i'm gonna stick her in the corner, put her in time out!!!
Without further confusion here they R.....

 

[Elvis7733]

Hello again, you wouldn't be able to tell from the plant in front but I've been growing these 2 plants with root lockout since the beginning. I flushed the PGC 3 or 4 weeks ago and got some respectable #s and I've only been feeding her water and compost tea but I did a mini flush tonight to greet a reading on the runoff and the #s were high,so WTF?

But the AHP is taking it like a strong minded woman, she hasn't skipped a beat even though her runoff readings were off my gage!9999 and 9999.
I think we can all agree that that is not very good. So in response I started a flush but had to leave after 3 gallons went through and out into my pot dish.
Tomorrow I will finish, I know i left a shitload of salts @ the bottom of both pots BUT,,,,When you got to go you got to GO!
Interesting fact.....I've gotten most of my information from sites on the internet. There are lots of them packed with more information than you can take in in a lifetime . But I found myself wanting to discuss these ideas and strategies along with the basic things that need to be done.
So I remembered it's 2025 and AI* GEMINI is in the house!
I fired up a conversation and found out lots of things I was doing wrong, like the order in which I mix my nutrients and supplements and teas, ect. I suggest using AU for any questions you have, GEMINI also found the distances and knob combos for my actual funking light!!!!AMAZING!!!! I've been searching the internet and home depot 10 times and nothing!
I was also going thru a thing (bipolar) and lost a month!🫩
Also my camera is funked and my exhaust fan is offline wtf.
Here's what I got for you.Refer to the last pictures if you really want to see it.

 

[Elvis7733]

This will most definitely be my longest grow but just like the first time I've learned lots of stuff on this grow.
Mostly it's about thenu nutrients, I have never grown anything with strong chemicals before, I've been Mr organic till now and i am growing 1 of these girls organically.
It wasn't the plan to do it organically but I purchased a sick seed from the SEEDSMAN and it broke ground with what looked like a magnesium deficiency but at that stage your plants cannot have a deficiency because they don't need anything to grow right now.
So anyhow I've been adding and retracting things ti my feeding schedule up till now, which is week 4 of flower .
My new feed for the Afghan hash plant is.....
Day 1) Flora series Micro, Grow, and Bloom + Bud Charge + water ph'd to 6.5
Day 3) Silica+ Cal-Mag+ water ph'd to 6.5
Day 5) Recharge instant compost tea+ Molasses+ water ph'd to 6.5
Day 7) REPEAT
and my feed schedule for the Purple ghost candy ( organic )
Day 1) Cal-Mag+( Elm Dirt) Bloom juice + Molasses + ph'd water to 6.5
Day3) Cal-Mag+Fox Farm Microbe Brew+ water ph'd to 6.5
Day 5)Fox Farm Big Bloom ( liquid feed)+ water ph'd to 6.5
Day7) Fox Farm Microbe Brew+ Cal- Mag( if needed) + water ph'd to 6.5

Just started yesterday so the dosages for all these products is 1/2 the recommended amount, for now!

Alright you've read my story now it's time to look at the pictures 🖼 .
Well here they R.....the 2nd Pic is from 10 days ago ,I'm showing you the lime green plant in the back. She just turned into a healthy girl except for maybe the lime color, everything else is fixed

Plants looking awesome bro

Why, after growing organic, did you switch to the synthetics?

Were you able to get the fan back online?

I was growing both with the Flora series in the beginning but the Purple ghost candy was sick when it came out of the ground ( bad seed from the Seedsman).
I flushed it hard twice at 4 weeks because I couldn't get it healthy and thats when I decided to switch the Purple ghost to organics.
I been developing my feed schedule throughout the grow for both but that's the one I'm sticking with to the end. ( up above)
I had a booster fan already hooked up th that line so when I had to remove the exhaust fan (offline) I still had one there, plus the intake fan which is also a booster fan.
I run them both all the time to create negative pressure.
The 2 exhaust fans were for the 2 tents, when I get them back online( if) i will have both exhaust fans on 1 tent and i'm gonna leave this one with the boosters.
I want to be able control both the in and out but I don't want to buy more stuff so at least I will have control of 1 of my tents!
Thanks for your interest, what r u growing??

Tonight @ midnite I am through 14 weeks with these 2 girls and on Friday i will be through 5 weeks of flowering and it has been interesting as always.
The Afghan Hash Plant was a pleasure to grow right from the seed. I never had a problem no matter what i did to her or what I fed her, the Purple ghost candy on the other hand had the sickness right from the rip, I'm confident I received it that way.
There's no time for crying when your plants are alive, so after 4 flushes, 3 feed schedules, and some supplemental nutrients she is growing well now, her leaves are even turning Purple as her name would suggest.

4 more weeks from Friday and we should be continplating the harvest.
Time flies when you're having fun .

 

[Elvis7733]

I did my last major defoliation, and now i'm just watching my buds grow.

We will soon need some real pics of that tent bro!!

I had a disaster on Friday the oil guy came and somehow over filled my oil tank and it poured out of the top of the tank in my lung room!!!! (basement)

Like I said , it's a disaster and it smells like straight gas in there.So i've been buying heaper filters and carbon pads trying to scrub the room, but it still reeks@!!!!
All I can do is hope my babies deal with it.
That's a pic from 5 minutes ago ,Rough camera

Yes, I'm still pissed and my lung room smells like shit but it's getting better. They sent a professional over who actually had knowledge of growing he put down some powder on the floor that he said would be okay for the plants and get rid of the smell.
Only time will tell f my girls will be ok.

 

[Elvis7733]

I'm in the 8th week of flower and the girls have been bulking up the last week and are almost ready.
Not sure when I want ti harvest, last time i waited for amber trick- ems and ended up with 10 ounces of the day destroyer!
Needless to say, i've been smoking it at night.
At this point I have some cloudy, and i'm just starting to get some amber on the big Hash plant.
