@NoSoSadPlant21,best of luck to you as well! Yeah it usually seems like they grow quick for a couple of days then slow down for a few days while rhe roots develop. Hope that's the case here! I'll keep an eye on yours too and maybe we can share some tips!

Hey man looks good. Just some advice to help out if I may. Cannabis plants love heat and humidity. It is the buds that hate it. We can exploit this in veg and early flower to get more vigorous growth. Your temps are just a little on the cool side right now. I would aim for more in the low 80's at this stage and no more than 9 degrees less when the lights are off. We want the temp gap between lights on and lights off to remain within that margin all the way through veg & early flower or we will make our plants stretch which we want to avoid. Once they have finished their vertical growth by weeks 4-6 of flower we can then open up that temp gap and begin allowing for more than 10 degrees less when the lights go out because it will now instead signal the plants to put more energy into the budding process and resin production. By this stage we drop those lights on temps to around 77. We begin walking them down by weeks 2-3 of flower and as soon as their done growing vertically by weeks 4-6 begin opening up that temp gap. If we grow buds all the way through at temps over 80 they will be big but very airy. Lower temps we get more dense and frosted nugs but we do not want to be too cold too soon or we lose out on size. We want the best of size and density. If you do not have them already get yourself a thermal laser temp gun and a PAR meter to better read your plants and get the most potential from your lights. If you have yet to do so research VPD, Vapor pressure deficit and how it relates to growing cannabis. There are good charts out there to print off and follow day to day. Keep up the good work man if you have any questions please feel free to ask. If you got a minute check out my 200 light 7,000 plant diary and follow my profile and youtube for videos. Happy growing!

@JKent19, Hey man sometimes we have to do what we have to do. That is a large part of growing as well and you are making do very well my friend. Look at the DropAir humidifier on amazon. There are multiple of them on each floor of the grow in my diary & I also have one for my future tent tutorials. Also using a full bucket of water in the grow room with no lid will very decently passively raise the humidity it works especially well in a warm room. VPD in short form as possible is essentially making use of the humidity and temperature to dial in the plants to be at their optimal feed rate through both the stomata on the underside of the leafs & through their roots. It basically super charges the growth rate of the plants. You want to dial it in for different parts of growth there are great easy to understand charts online that will help with this. PAR meter is a device for reading the amount of light the sensor on it detects so we use it above our plants to see how much light they are receiving and can maximize the potential of our lights this way getting them nice and close and then use the thermal laser gun to read the temps on the tops of the plants themselves to make sure everything is dialed. Just launched our youtube with our first video so make sure you follow my growdiaries profile & sub to youtube for support! If you have any further questions do not hesitate to ask friend. Keep it up man!

@LegacyMarketFarm, I really appreciate the advice! The person who helped get me started growing lives far away, so there's only so much he can so to help. It's a little tough to keep my temp and humidity consistent due to my environment. I live in a high desert and it's super dry. At the beginning of this grow I had 2 powerful humidifiers going and couldn't get it above 50%. As you said, it's great for the mid to late flowering stage, but tough the rest of the time. As to remain legal, since I have a daughter, I have to keep the tent in my garage, which also makes it a bit more difficult. I have to put a heater outside of the tent due to it being winter. It seems like moving it back or forward 2 inches changes the temp by 5 degrees, haha! Not trying to make excuses but I'm definitely fighting the elements more rhis grow than during the spring, summer, and fall. I definitely will get a thermal laser, and research what you said. Just initial question is VPD like negative pressure in the tent? And is the PAR like the ppm meter? It's funny because I know enough to know there's a lot I still need to learn, but so far at least I have got lucky and managed respectable harvests! I will definitely check out your page, I actually have a little time to do some research right now.

I'm currently growing what was supposed to be a Green Crack Auto, unknown genetics, and I'm on day 67 with the last 2 weeks I've seen many signs of preflower. Been told they go for between 13 and 16 weeks. At any rate this plant of mine is an absolute monster. Happy Growing

@AsNoriu, yeah I'm definitely smelling a strong tone of mango. That's the only thing my two plants have in common is the smell. I'm going to try molasses with the flush for the first time, we'll see if it kakes a difference. I agree completely, my motto is "let the plants tell you when they are ready." They are starting to get close though, I would say at least 50% of the trichomes are cloudy and a majority of the hairs are red so I feel confident they will be ready in that 14 day time frame!

@JKent19, you never know, till you trim, then you can have a feel ... I learned one lesson, never hurry the thing you been caring about for last 3-4 month ... My one Northern Lights caught weight really nice in last 3 days, thought she will be sh1t, but she looks okeish even. And I never grew so much, but my grows are improving with every I do. My target was and always is - 100g plant. Somehow I make a bit more now ... ;)

JKent19commented3 years ago

@AsNoriu, also if my math is right I think you averaged 210.3 g per plant. We could either do the average of mine or we could compare to your 2 biggest plants. Your call, I have no idea how much I'm going to get but I don't think it's gonna be 210 per plant, haha. I'd be super happy with 300 g total!

@AsNoriu, I'm also really happy that there's a good mix of buds. My first grow I let it dry too much so the buds all broke apart and I ended up with 6 ounces of popcorn buds. My 2nd grow a vast majority of it was huge nugs that didn't really dry super well. This grow I got a ton of small, medium, and large buds so that's definitely nice.

@AsNoriu, so the plant I got 153 grams off immediately had that fruity smell, I'd say mango with a grapey undertone. The bud with the fatter plants may not have been 100% dry when I trimmed them. I weighed them again recently and the weight had actually increased by 7 g but I think when I first put that plant in the jar it was too wet. It had a bit of a hay smell. I've been burping 2x per day and it's seemed to develop its smell but not nearly as strong as the taller plant. That one is no lie some of the best cannabis I've had since college, haha. I'd put it up against any stuff from the dispensary that's for sure!

@GanjaJack, thanks bud! Cautiously optimistic I'll get some pretty good weight. My goal is to beat my last grow, which was a little over 8 ounces for 2 plants. I'll post the next update Wed, but the flowers are definitely starting to fill in nicely. The reviews I have read on GC are right, she seems to need a lot more nutrients than my previous endeavors!
