Lovely plant to grow. They are hardy plants that bounce back quickly. I can't wait to smoke them for the first time after curing.

Very sturdy tent. There is some light light leak but didn't bother me at all. My tent was in a big walk in closet so it was easy to keep it dark regardless. Good job Opulent. Oh I have the carbon fiber air filter too. Top notch! 😎

This is actually my largest yield yet because I was growing 3 plants instead of just 2 like my first 2 grows. I'm so glad that my girls were able to bounce back and their flowers fattening up finally. After the nute and calcium burn, I thought they were as good as dead. GDPs are very resilient plants. I think this one is still my favorite grow but 4th time is going to be the charm. πŸ’•β€οΈπŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ˜ŠπŸ˜ŠπŸ˜˜πŸ˜˜ I will come back to put how much they weigh after drying and we've put them in jars and I'll come back to comment on taste and the high... 😊😊

Grow Questions

Bak2Blkstarted grow question 2 years ago
So... is it normal for the plants to "retop" themselves? I topped GDP2 like 3 days ago and now it looks as though what I cut off is growing back again. Should I top it again in the same spot?

you must have fimmed it. yeah you can cut that clean off. i never do fim, dont see the benefit of it. plants take longer to recover from it compared to topping.

So I thought I had a case of mild nute burn but I haven't given the plants any Bloom or Calmag since last Friday, only water so I'm wondering if this is a nute burn issue now. Could it be my PH? Last I tested my run off it was at about 6.65. What's causing this?

I've got a sneaking suspicion you're dealing with a calcium excess.... it can often manifest itself as nute burn but it ALSO comes with dark brown blotches such as your first photo is showing... Is the top of your soil getting "crusty"??? I think I can also see signs of some droop starting on some of your leaves ... and a definite curling up of the leaf tips.. the combination of these elements would definitely point to a calcium overload. I would do a flush in any event. You KNOW something is wrong and this is the best way to kind of "reset the clock" as it were. And try to get the pH down to about 6.2-6.3 ... add in your Big Bloom nutes in your final gallon of the flush and let her dry out. (You can actually increase the Big Bloom significantly if you want... might obviate the need for calmag... generally, I use about 9tsps/gallon of Big Bloom at this stage and, instead of Grow Big, I use 1-2 tsp of Tiger Bloom). Going forward, if you feel she needs calmag, only give it to her once a week max.... she should be just fine! Good luck!

Hey there friend. Would you be alright with me offering some pointers to help? So cannabis plants LOVE heat and humidity. It is the buds that hate it. In veg we want to take advantage of this fact to help our plants grow along much quicker and more vigorously. In veg we can look for temps of 79-84 MAX with lights on & no more than 9 degrees less with lights off. If we allow for too much temperature swing between lights on and lights off while the plant is still growing vertically up to day 20 of flower, We will cause the plant to stretch ALOT which we do not want. So in veg & early flower, Keeping our temperature gaps nice and close between lights on and off is key. Utilizing humidity in our rooms during veg will also help out a lot with more rapid growth but we must introduce it properly. In our rooms we have our temperature and humidity set-points, But when we combine those 2 it forms a third set-point which is the most important & that is called VPD, Vapor pressure deficit. I strongly recommend every new grower or old grower who has not learned it yet, To study and understand it & implement it into your room, Logging your numbers daily. https://cerescann.com/importance-of-measuring-vpd/ For soil, We generally want to go for a PH of 6.1 This website does a GREAT job of illustrating it with a nice graph & very good detailed explanation for soil. https://autoflowerseedshop.com/cannabis-ph-chart-guide/ As we briefly touched on before, During veg & early flower we want our temperature gap's nice and tight to avoid stretch. Why exactly our plants stretch in response to this is a genetic trigger being activated by the environmental stress essentially telling the plant the end of the season is closer than it really is. In veg & early flower the plant is still in its first stage of development which is to grow up wide and tall so when it produces seed, It can cast them out nicely. Remember, Whether we are growing our plants for seed or bud their genetic responses do not change as they do not know any different. Once the plant has finished that first stage of growth by weeks 4-6 of flower with most strains, It is by day 20 of flower. Autoflowers you have to watch for it, But once the plant has finished this goal its new mission is to focus 100% on producing nice big flower clusters & to get very sticky so it can attract pollen to it successfully. So once that vertical growth is finished, We actually now want to begin to expose our plants to larger temperature swings between lights on and lights off. This will help activate that genetic response and allow us to draw out the most potential from the strain utilizing the plants genetic triggers to environmental stresses at the right times. We can also take this a step further with doing light deprivation in the last 2 weeks using less light to simulate cloud cover. Very cold feed temps on the last flush is very good too. If you do not have them already, Get yourself a good PAR meter & thermal laser temp gun to monitor your plant top temperatures & optimize how much light your plants are getting. One final thing, A fully mature cannabis plant @ peak consumption in flower, Or group of plants needs to consume 3gallons of water in 24hrs to produce 1 dry pound of cannabis. This equation holds true all the way up & it can be 1 plant or 100 plants but to produce each dry pound that plant or group of plants will need to consume 3 gallons in 24hrs. That equation will be true all the way up, 6 gallons in 24hrs your plant or plants will produce 2lbs dry, and so on. A general mistake made early on by growers is not watering the plants with enough for them to yield the way they should. We are currently in the middle of producing a very comprehensive tutorial series for everybody to learn from & understand how to grow the highest level craft cannabis all on their own. Our first 2 installments are focusing on the basic fundamentals and we are using autoflowers for them before moving onto more advanced series with photoperiods. If this interests you please check out our youtube and subscribe. The first 2 episodes are out the next one is coming in a few days. If you should ever have any questions or need any help, Please feel free to follow my profile and shoot me a DM. I will gladly help you with the pull down & make sure you get the best quality harvest possible as it is the most important step of the entire process. Happy growing friend!
