So after a week of flushing the blue mammoth is showing no signs of yellowing yet. I know from the burnt leaf tips early on that it’s had too much nutrients, so the leaves may not lose their green colour/nutrients by the time I harvest. I can get away with flushing for one more week but a few days of that will be spent in darkness at the end. The nutrients I’m using have an npk of 6-2-5 which doesn’t seem all too ideal for blooming in my opinion despite them being bloom nutrients. The high nitrogen ratio could explain why some of the leaves have curled under a little? I think I’ll stick with them but reduce the amount given and add additional phosphorus as some of the plants are struggling with bud production.
HAHAHAHA i know how it is whit "no name seed's" have a round 200-250 but they are 5-6 years old but some still pop's, good luck and i will whatching you'r grow
Wowee! That is one packed up tent, and such a beautiful canopy! Is this your first grow in that tent? I don't know how all you indoor people do it, planning the space so that they can all fit. Do you have to take them out a lot to do the defoliating and watering? Or are all the plants connected and watering one spot waters them all?
@TomatoloverBoy, I’ve had to defoliate to aid humidity control and light penetration anyway so a net isn’t really needed to help control the plants but it may help if I end up with some heavy branches as trying to tie up the back plants could be tricky.
@Experimentgreen, this is my second grow, the first being a single gorilla glue. I have too many plants for my tent space this time as they are tight! Lol 4 would have been better than 6. I can manage fine with defoliation and they are sitting in an autopot system so they’re all connected to an external 100litre tank that bottom feeds all 6 pots.
@Short_N_stockY, it’s filled alright lol with the radiator and dehumidifier now in there it’s too tight. So I’m upgrading to a 1.2 x 2.4 and getting an additional two auto-pots. So eight plants in the bigger tent should give them the space they need! 👍🏻
@DizzusBoy, yup I’ve got it covered. I have two 6” dual speed fans coming and the slower speed is roughly 20% less so I’ll run that on the intake to maintain negative pressure inside the tent. 👍🏻
Hi FireKing,hope you are well.LED : http://www.viparspectra.comI have two 900w running in my tent, no issues and so far so good. They are 12 band and have incredible reviews. Zero issues this far and I recommend them for Beginner to Intermediate growers.let me know if you have an questions and I can try hell out best I can .welcome and #staylifted
@Excalibur, hi and thank you! The viparspectras are definitely at the top of my list so far so I feel I may be giving one a go on my next grow. Need to upgrade my entire setup but space and lighting will be first 👍🏻
@TomatoloverBoy, I did very much the same with my first grow but it has to happen in order for you to understand and learn. So this time around on my second grow I have avoided the errors I made before only encountered a few new ones.
@FireKing,I think I did all wrong what human can do wrong
Overfeed , overwater , underwater , did overkill on grow technique , didn’t use the space and many many more
I am Noob master
Last what happens is did split plant main branch in half 😑😑😑😑 two days ago at watering.
That was super fun experience
@Larimar, I got it as a free seed when I bought the northern lights seeds and I know it was a different strain to the NLs so it should be something else. I’ve just updated with photos and you can see they are very leafy buds.
@Hawkbo, yeah they’ve been great. Only downfall is having different strains in there means I will need to flush the plants at different times. So I think I’m going to simply take the plant out of the autopot and hand water for the last week so the rest can carry on getting nutrients
I would stay clear of blurple technology. It still does work but overall it’s outdated technology. When looking at amazon or eBay you want to see what their true power draw is not what they have in big writing.
E.g for a 4x4 you would want something in the range of 450+ true watts
I would look at quantum boards from alibaba highly affordable and highly effective
What a great looking grow! Stoked to watch it finish up. If you're interested in watching some auto's grown in organic living soil with minimal salt nutrients, take a peek at my 3 new diaries!!
