Great week, went by quick. Really got my second grow tent dialed in. Fimmed one of my auto’s at the behest of someone on Reddit. Wish I would’ve filmed 2 or 3 total instead of just 1. Thank you all who liked my previous weeks, I appreciate it very much. I don’t wanna jinx it lol. Everything’s going great tho. Also added some “recharge” during one of the waterings. Also bought a dehumidifier, should come on Tuesday. One interesting thing that happened. I had purchased an 8x8 tent without measuring my room first. It turned out that it would not fit the room I planned on using but I had already purchased it. Tried canceling it with amazon, they wouldn’t allow it. Got a 4x8x80 instead and that’s what you guys see in my diary. So I’m stuck with this 8x8, try to go through returning on Amazon and they won’t allow drop off, pickup only. My gf and I forgot they were coming and missed the pick up. I called amazon to complain about this issue, eventually got a manager, and she ended up crediting me the $425 for the 8x8, and letting me keep it!!! That was awesome, though in hindsight I probably spent over 2k on this subject just in the past 30 days. Anyhoo, I hung my extra Mars hydro ts 1000, I did some light map ppfd research and am just seeing if the plants end up liking it or not. I’m ready to remove the extra light if they don’t respond positively to it. Cheers!

Plants seem to respond oddly to watering…. It’s like they look like they want water, but then when they get it, they act like they don’t want it… super weird. Maybe since I’m new I don’t have the knack for knowing how much to give them ¯_(ツ)_/¯

It looks like you are growing in soil. Stick your finger in the dirt. If the soil is wet before you get to the first knuckle do not water. If you hit moist soil when your finger is between the first and second knuckle it is time to water. If your finger goes in to the second knuckle and the soil is still dry you should water more frequently.

I met this kid yesterday that said he waters his plants every day and not to LST. My plan was to make the plants grow in a spiral essentially. I just wanted to hear everyone else’s opinion on this kids statements. He has like 2.5 grows under his belt where I only have .33 grows.

Lst for maximum canopy exposure, don't water everyday because that doesn't let the roots stretch to search for water and expand. You want to find a good watering schedule for your plants, let the soil dry out but not completely. You'll see your plants slightly droop, then water and they will perk up after 15 mins. Its something you practice to master. I've seen plants that get hand watered everyday and it's not beneficial. But a soil/coco on a drip system getting watered everyday on a timer does work.

My plants have SO SO many nodes. In my opinion they have way way too many branches. Is there anything at all I could do as far as cutting/pinching, some of them off? They’re autoflowers and I’ve only really found people saying don’t do it.

It's to late to do it now. If you do it will stress the plant out a lot because its already into flowering. If you have a fast growing autoflower that responds well to training, you want to do all your training before you hit the 2nd week of flowering. I do heavy training, lollipop, defoliation. I try to do everything during vegetation stage for Autoflowers. Check out my OG Diesel Kush autoflower diary. I did a lot of cutting and training to it.

Any suggestions on how to proceed? Like I said I’m losing leaves left and right, I have seen multiple other people complaining about this strains finicky sensitivity to nutes. Also Like 3 or mine are already showing amber trich’s, 3 lack trichomes entirely. Progressive harvest?

If leaves are coming off rapidly it’s likely ph issue causing lockout. I’m in hydro but just had the same issue. Hope you get it sorted.

Likely your ph is out either in the soil or your reader. Do a proper calibration and check the runoff waters ph and ec levels. Cheers

@Kagonisss, Appreciate that sir. I just took my old man with me to cannacon recently. Got some great ideas from there. What I wanna do is to get one big solid piece of metal grating. Maybe 46”x 72” Have that be the platform for my plants. Then maybe using a 4”x4” piece of wood, cut 4 18” segments for each of the four corners to rest on. Maybe a 2”x6” for each of the 4 bases. Then I’ll have some room to maneuver, watering/feeding takes upwards of 2.5 hours using a weed sprayer. I’m trying to streamline it as much as possible. With the plants raised up 18”, it would be very easy to fashion a sloped piece of… something, to collect all the run off for easy collecting.

@Hydro_Hiebs, Thanks amigo, they were $17 dollar shelving from Home Depot. I plan on eventually swapping the Campbell’s soup cans I used for each of the 8 corners with something that won’t rust or absorb water. But it’ll do for now.
