Looking good so far. She's growing very nicely this week. She's beginning to open up and spread out instead of up. it's fascinating to watch how fast everything happens. every day there are new leaves. there seems to be some issue with the edges burning or something. i have 2 other plants in this tent receiving the same nutrients and under the same light so im not sure exactly what's happening. hopefully a jedi master out there can help me.
so i did a flush twice with straight tap water. i tested the run off at 1300-1600 ppm. Not good. i guess i started nutes way too early with the soil that i used. lesson learned. the plant is recovering very well, however. no new burned edges on new leaves and the overall color and health look remarkedly better. im starting to get excited again about watching this one grow up.
thats the end of week 2. these little babies start their third week tomorrow. check back soon!

Grow Questions

When my fan comes on to cool down the tent should I set the fan to low speed and let it gradually vent? Or is it better to let it rip and vent the tent quickly?

I use an automatic inline fan and when the temps/RH get to high it turns on to medium speed. 1-10 speed settings.
It also has an alarm setting should the temps get above that and then turns on MAX.
I also have some fans in the tent that do not vent air but circulate it. normally when they come on the inline will also come on giving the plants a nice mix.
If you fan is a turn dial type with no automatic controls, try and find a sweet spot that creates the ideal temps in your tent.
Then worry about the RH after. can add in a humidifier into or outside of the tent.
You could also get something called an inkbird that monitors temps and RH then turns on the fan. thus turning a non automatic fan into an automatic one.
Best Of Luck!

As a first time grower, would you recommend traditional LST or a trellis net? I'm growing 3 plants in a 2x4 tent if that helps? Just wondering what the easiest and least prone to me screwing it up. Thanks in advance.

For autos, and being a first grow.. just regular LST in my opinion. Many of which have been outlined already by others. I do not like trellis nets cuz I like to see every bit of the plant and be able to move and inspect. Youโre locked in with a scrog. Itโs hard enough spotting WPM or pests without one, I canโt imagine with one.

While growing autoflower, is defoliation necessary if you use traditional LST?

I think 99% of grow related questions can be answered with "It depends...". That's what makes it such a fantastic hobby :)
Anyway my 2 cents:
Leaves produce energy which generates plant growth so you should let them be. However:
Remove a leaf if it will make for a better distribution in your plant.
Remove a leaf if it blocks a bud.
Remove a leaf if it is yellow or sick.
Remove a leaf that is always in the shadow, as it is not contributing to growth.
Some say remove a leaf to improve air circulation but I have found that one to be difficult to assess.
But it's always worth it to check your seed bank's website for specific cultivation advice, as some strains respond better than others. I have noticed no difference between autos and photos.
Good luck!
Taloninstarted grow question 3 years ago
At what stage should I start supplementing CO2? Veg, bloom, or both? If the answer is both, then what stage would it be most useful? I only have one bottle so when should I place it so that the plant gets the most out of it?

Unless your room is sealed and you know what your doing, It's not worth it.
They plant also needs light energy provided to it in excess of 900PPFD or 20 DLI a day before it really needs it.
If you new, you don't need it. get a handle on everything else and worry about co2 when you prefect your growing style.
Good Luck!

When you start counting the bloom or flowering phase? is it when you first see pistils? or when you see pistils from multiple bud sites? Thanks in advance.

The first signs of stigma, (white pistons, white hairs) is when your plant is classed as flowering. When your plants start flowering you have to make sure that you're providing higher doses of phosphorus and potassium, these are the main minerals your cannabis plants need to produce buds. Lower the N, nitrogen is more KEY in the growth phase the P-K part is more for flowering. If you need more detailed info please feel free to DM me. The info that comes with the plant arw guidelines and flowering can be delayes in different environments, lightning, nutes, temps and so on. Some autos if stalled might not flower until wk 8 like mine, or migjt start on wk 2, depending on stress and condi, it all plays a part. Happy growing Buddy.

when im measuring the temp/humidity in my tent should i measure it down by plant or should i measure in the middle of the tent?

Cold_Farmeranswered grow question 3 years ago
If you have good air circulation, then it doesn't matter where you measure. The sensor should not be directly in the light of the lamp, otherwise it would heat up and falsify the result. Even under the canopy of leaves, the air circulation is poor later and can cause slight deviations.

help diagnose my plant. two of the edges look burnt and also there are spots on the edges that look burned as well. this is only happening to one plant out of four so im not sure what the issue could be. giving the same nutes and under the same light. thanks in advance.

clueless_smokeranswered grow question 3 years ago
What nutes are you giving and what soil are you using? keep in mind that every plant is different even if from the same strain, what one likes the other might hate. Also keep in mind that auto's need about half the dosage of a photo-period but to be honest, I would have waited another week to start feeding, more if it's a rich soil. I'm no expert by any means but what I normally like to do is make sure my PH, temps and soil moisture are in check then look at the nutrients. If it's looking like deficiency then try to identify what type of deficiency and supplement. If it's burn (which is what I am seeing) then no nutes for a week or until new growth looks healthy.
Don't freak out though cos it isn't terrible looking :)
Hope this helps and good luck with your grow!

I like to wait for the third week or 3-5th node like stated below.
Have also grown like suggested with keeping it low to the ground and it also worked.
try something and see what works best for you.
Be gentle and go slow. no one needs a snapped branch.
Good Luck!

Good luck with your grow pal. So much fun ahead. Just be patient, I was checking it all the time lol. Try keep opening your tent to w minimum. It'll lower the overall chance of pests. It just takes 1 female and it'll lay a 100 eggs and within a wk they'll be multiplying. It's early and all. But try not leave your plant out of tent for too long when doing defoliation and topping, as fresh cuts rings the dinner bell. Good luck buddy. ๐ฑ๐ฟ๐ท

So I started noticing the edges being burned so I did a flush and the run off tested at 1300-1600 ppm so I reckon I used too much juice to start with. Oh well, lesson learned. Hopefully I caught it in time she can have a full recovery.
