Topped 3/26. Yeah, they're young, but they can take it. Gotta move things along. 3/29 - so, not much growth yet, so let me explain my nutrient tank. I have a 5 gal bucket with low level and high level float switches, a fill solenoid, a large circulation pump, and a smaller feed pump. There are also 3 solenoids in the feed loop. 1 solenoid opens a return path the the reservoir so the feed line flushes for about 20 seconds. Then, the recirc solenoid closes, and each if the 2 feed solenoids open in sequence, for a set period of time that varies by the plant age and the planter size I'm using. When the low level triggers, the fill solenoid activates to refill the reservoir until the high level trips. During the refill process, I have 4 dosing pumps adding different fertilizer concentrates to the reservoir based on my target EC and N-P-K-Ca-Mg-S ratio. Piece of cake! 3/30 - fan leaves getting bigger. PPFD to 400. 4/1 - PPFD to 500 Boiled coco/perlite medium and grow bags. I'll give em a good soak with 0.7EC tomorrow, check leachate ph, and probably transplant Sunday.

Grow Questions

Ok y'all, was hoping for a simple, hands off grow with just one topping early on. These babies have turned into dense bushes, and I want to defoliate the undercarriage a bit. Fan leaves are huge from the base to the top, so do I just prune out the lower, older fans?

I'm 4 weeks into flower. Plant is super healthy and bushy. Want to thin it down. Can I take some cuttings to clone? Should I put the cuttings back to 18/6 or keep them at 12/12?

Hello. Yes you can take clones almost anytime in the plants life, except the end. They need to go back to 18/6. It is best to take clones just before you switch to flower. the more a plant goes in and out of flowering it looses a bit of vigor. Most strains can go back and forth only a few times before it's not that strong anymore. Also beware that the clone taken in flowering will show weird mutated leaves for a while and it won't be ready for flowering again for at least a month before you get normal leaves out of it and it's gone back to veg. There is a big struggle with the hormones when you take clones in flowering and wanting them to go to veg.. So expect some strange growth before going back to veg. Good luck. Chuck.

How high in power should I go with my lights without CO2 enrichment? I can comfortably provide 1200 PPFD to the canopy, but I'm holding it down near 900 because I'm not sure the extra power used would yield an increase in, um, yield.

always crank out the light if you can ride it out. thing is wierdness starts happening for example you need a lot more calcium and magnesium. the way you're feeding right now, you would have to change quite a lot of the "hands off approach" like you might need to start spraying the leafs with cal mag, monitor it more closely etc. totally worth it especially at the begning and middle of flower, just start turning it down quite a lot towards the chop, get that taste in there. Hope this helps ! ๐Ÿš€
