Got my nutrient solutions mixed up or went overboard on nitrogen with all the littles and my veggies so that set me back a bit. Eventually flushed everything after several weeks of slow growth and issues. Wasnt paying much attention to anything going on in this tent other than trying to keep it alive. Too focused on my tent in flower.

That’s awesome!!! I was the very same way when I first started growing. I did so much reading and learned so many techniques that I was itching to try out. This round i manifolded my 3 out of the 4 plants in my garden, and completely hacked the 4th plant by breaking off one of the main arms while doing the manifold on 2 separate occasions. That 1 plant is the Mandarin Haze which I have journals for, and the only strain I have cloned for next round because of how wonderful she was looking at 4 weeks of flower when I took my clones. I figured that running all 4 buckets with the same strain will allow me to dial it in a little better because with my current setup I have 4 plants, 3 different strains each with their own nutrient requirements, and it seems like every time I do a mixed strain grow, there is always one strain that does not perform to its max because the nute profile is slightly off...

@MagicMikesMeds, awesome that's what I was guessing but 1 thing I've learned so far is guessing doesnt work that great haha

@MagicMikesMeds, awesome thank u! I'd love to have a set up like you're planning. I have a 2×4×5 tent which is all I really have room for in my walk in closet and originally my plan was to just stick with that and grow 1...maybe 2 plants for shits n giggles. So I got the cheapest set up I could put together decently based on hours of researching. Then as I went I kept getting more into it and learning more and wanting to do it better and spent way more $ than I had ever even considered until I put together a legit set up like I shouldve done in the 1st place. Now I have the 2x4x5 I just finished harvesting tonight which will be my veg tent. A 4x4 with 2 200w cree CXB3590X2's and a 6" 395 CFL inline fan and filter, for flower. Then I have an old 4x4 I got from a buddy that's in my dining room I'm using for drying right now. It leaks light all over the place but would be great for a mother tent but until next year I'd like to keep everything in my bedroom. I have a son that's going to graduate high school this year so I have to keep pad locks on everything to stay in accordance with the law and I'd rather not have him afraid to bring friends over cuz I turned the house into a tented jungle lol. I'll definitely try the week 4 strategy and see how it goes. When u say day 28 of flower do u mean after going to 12/12 or after they actually begin flowering? I misunderstood that on my 1st grow with the breeder timelines and started flushing like 3 weeks early. Might've been able to get an even bigger yield had I known.

The pH of the media drops down when nutrients has built up into salt . It happens usually when you over feed your plants by giving them nutrients too often by feeding them each times you water them or every other watering ! Follow a Feed Water Water Feed Water Water Feed W W F ... schedule and check the ppm's from the drain of the second watering to see if it needs to be fed or just water for the next round !

@JUNGLE_B4RNS, I've been sticking to your advice and havent been having that problem anymore. I was having some deficiencies focusing too much on lowering run off ppm and not giving enough but I think I got the hang of it now. Thanks again!
Beans
Beans
@JUNGLE_B4RNS, thanks I'll give that a try. I also was told some additives like carbohydrates can throw off the ppm and make it high but they don't cause any harm. I was just going off the bottle's recommended feedings and keeping it light in comparison. Thanks for the advice! Less nutes to mix up too 👍

Trying to get her ready for flower and avoid the crowded mess I had with the 1st 1. Been keeping up on defoliating so it's just routine for her now. Havent noticed any slowing of growth after.

@CRiSPrGrow, the 8th wonder of the world will be fine. No signs in there. It's my other 2 tents and only 2 of 6 total. Not too worried about the 1s in veg cuz I can fight dirtier. Found the source and blasted those bitches with some real insect killer earlier. I'm only concerned about my flower tent but I hit them real hard in the mouth to start it off so I think I got em on the ropes. Just gotta keep bombing on em til I beat em so bad their great grandchildren only exist hypothetically lol

@Mrs_Larimar, that will be amazing, I hope it happens soon! I'm lucky to live in a legal state or I would still be wishing I could grow 1 plant just for fun. We live in a small duplex so 3 tents takes up all the extra space and I have my garage full of my moms stuff so In constantly feeling crowded. More space would be a dream come true haha

@Beans, oumaaan such a great Plant. and yes I agree. the only thing that is better than having Space -is having more Space....Iam draming of my cellar ready for 3-4 rooms with different light. and space to dry. But i wont do it before its legal in our country. Keep us updated after curing.

@Mrs_Larimar, why thank u very much! I got some I harvested already due to mite bullshit. Gonna try it out tonight. I'll post pics. It's over dried cuz I just threw it on a plastic bin and forgot about it for about a week.

Could you check the trichomes? Are you in the harvest window yet?

@Aldanil, sorry I've been locked in battle with spider mites for the last week. I think I can see the difference now that some are actually cloudy. Had a hard time telling the difference between light reflection and trichome color.

@Aldanil, I've been taking pics with my phone and zooming in. Got some I need to post. I dont think im there quite yet. I'm almost through week 7 I think and 8-9 is probably where it'll be according to breeder timeline. Think I'm beginning to get an eye for trichome ripeness but I'm still hoping the timeline will get me close enough that even if I still cant really tell if its ready, it will be ready. I'm shooting for all cloudy with just a hint of amber. My 1st batch was maybe a tad too early cuz I saw no amber at all. Or I did and didnt know it lol

@OutForReal,👊thanks man! I'm happy with the outcome. It was right about what I thought would be a reasonable expectation if I had a solid grow. 4oz of respectable bud and 21g of trimmed little pieces that shouldve tried a little harder if they didnt want to become butter....cuz its gonna happen lol

Nice strain, got to do some research now about it.. happy harvesting soon

@Mrs_Larimar, thank you! Check out dark heart nursery's website cuz I think this strain is different than traditional sour patch kids. I wanna try breeding my own strains someday. Im just beginning though. Like they say "Gotta crawl before u walk" and there is always the possibility u might have to walk somewhere to breed so I dont recommend skipping that step. Lol

@MagicMikesMeds, thank you! My 1st grow I was experimenting with topping and fiming and it got out of control. Lesson learned and this time I'm hoping to keep it organized and under control.
