Topped off reservoir with nutrient solution at 1200ppm and 6.3ph. Removed Purple Ghost Candy from the 2x4 and put in 2x2. Remaining two plants given extra space in 2x4. Added a tower fan for better circulation. Adjusted light intensity to target ppfd no higher than 1100. That’s a high Daily Light Integral at 47.5.
Monday: I feel like I should have defoliated much more aggressively, but I still can’t bring myself to do it. She’s getting too frosty to start defoliating now. I’m letting her finish out with leaves, but I’ll keep plenty of airflow over the canopy to prevent any bud rot from forming. Topped off the reservoir….one more day done.
Daily: top off reservoir with 1300ppm nutrient solution / ~6.5 ph
Weekly: check reservoir ppm and ph
EOW: empty and rinse 1 gallon reservoirs / rinse wicks
Wednesday….swapped locations between flower tents since this plant is shorter. That will give me a more even canopy in the 2x4 tent, and better light coverage for this plant now that she gets her own 2x2.
Light at 14” above canopy at 100% as recommended by manufacturer for best flower ppfd.
@@T_Dub, Nice.
Yeah, I got a buddy who refuses to flush, the only crops he has had fail was when he did. He ended up getting bud rot on the flushed crop. Has not flushed since, he never had another problem with bud rot, and the difference in quality was not a lot after curing.
@gREEn7o0, thanks! I don’t flush…..I’m one of those people who don’t think there’s any benefit to flushing. I do give them a good long dry and cure though.
@@@T_Dub, I use dry nutrients so I wouldn't go with smaller pots but with liquid nutrients you can get away with the smaller ones you just have to water more often.
As for scrog I've never done it because of my back problems it's to hard for me to get under the net. I do most of my autos the same, I top above the 5th node (set of branches) and push n pull the remaining branches to keep them from under the ones above them. If that makes sense.
I think you can do 2 or 3 in there because in my experience smaller pots make smaller plants, but they could get big without notice 😆
@Cyrusdavirus, thank you.
She’s coming along beautifully.
May I pick your brain Cyrus?? What do you think of growing two autos in a 2x2x4 tent in 2 gallon pots.
Is that a reasonable expectation, or do I need larger pots and fewer plants?
I’m looking at the Gorilla Cookies auto that you recently grew. I could scrog them if that’s an acceptable training technique with autos. (I’m still researching autos, but SCROG seems OK.) Thanks in advance for your help.
@Cyrusdavirus, she’s taken on the shape of an attractive shrubbery. 😝. But she is a beautiful strain….I enjoyed growing her. Looking forward to smoking her next to the Godfather OG and Purple Ghost Candy to see which ones I like best. Hope you are doing well Cyrus.
@Seedsman,
Thank you. Your LA Peyote Kush and Purple Ghost Candy are both a pleasure to grow. They really accepted the quadline training and LST quite well. 🙏
