Rdwc And Coco Coir Adventures #nobubbles

So if I just leave alone the lights will turn on 10 hours from now and then it will be that 12/12 cycle. They had a brief period of time (4 hrs) lights went on after 48hrs dark.

You break the branch by squeezing or twisting. You want to damage the inside while trying to preserve the integrity of the outer stem. It would be the same as me brushing blood vessels so that my nervous system had to create other avenues to preserve my extremities.
When we do that, we can then bend the top over so that all the lower branches will now become colas. So 6 branches could essentially turn into 45 colas.... !
When we bend the main top over it also signals all lower branches to go into overdrive and shoot for the top to drop seed. Which is what it's whole life is about... reproduction.
Google it...
And I've broke the shot out of them and had to use electrical tape to hold the branch together and that branch produced an ounce itself!

Just reread that again. That makes a lot of sense. It's almost like you're putting the plant in a state of limbo it's not sure that branch will survive so it sends up some more. But she also rebuilds that branch and it comes back stronger than ever. So now a couple extra colas and a reinforced branch. Awesome. :)

IMO you should be fine;)
Nice looking ladies mandalaman! I saw the title says hydro but looks like prolix drain to waist ? I'll look back a few pages and probably find the answer.

Yesterday I stopped by the local hydro store. I ended up grabbing the Heavy16 Veg A/B and Heavy Foliar. In addition he gave me a free sample of MammothP. So I will use those three as well as the OSA/28, Deep 6 and (maybe) ColonyX. Any thoughts on that mix? Is the ColonyX redundant with the MammothP? The guy at the hydro store (who is awesome) thought Heavy16 was overpriced and recommended Remo. But ultimately after talking for a bit he hooked it up with a nice discount and I grabbed the nutes and a couple other misc items.

The Emerald Harvest team got ahold of me via messenger today and actually offered me a nice discount code to use on their nutes. Which was appreciated. But I had just grabbed the Heavy16 last night.

Picture below. And if anyone has critiques suggestions etc please let me know. I'm all ears. This is my first run with Hydro :)

They heavy 16 foilar is fantastic stuff! Will not grow without it especially on older clones. Really gives them that extra drive and larger shiny fan leaves!

And now third tent will be clone/mother tent in my bedroom. So I'll have by Saturday. Wondering what my best plan would be to kind of get everything going into some sort of system where I can harvest monthly.

Nice well the tents look super clean, plants are healthy and your bending cropping skills are showing me I'm to lazy.

I've seen different talk about GG4 having the twisty leaf trait and I'm not sure what that refers to. Is this along those lines or anything i need to worry about?

I saw he was commenting on your photos;). Will do. I need to get two layers of trellis on before flipping so they can grow into it. And Because I didn't tomorrow I get to try and put it on from the to two weeks into bloom.

That's not the twist trait they are referring to as far as I know. Gg4 can "dud" and the leaves will be small shiny and a bit of a twist.

I gotta get the nets on these girls tomorrow. So I will slide the nets over those 2x4's in the back and the wall to the left . Would have been a lot easier to let them grow through the nets.
