I wish this week went smooth but it was a battle once again VS high temps and high humidity. Also my AC wanted to take a leak all over the floor which was stressful as well..but the grow continues and the plants are going strong. I find myself refilling the DWC buckets with about 2 gallons every other day, I use sitting pH tap water and add nutrients if the EC reading tells me to. With the humidity issues, hitting over 70% RH at times, I had to do some heavy defoliating and also leaving the tent open at times, the smell pouring out is GAS. Also, the Spider Farmer G8600 light was picked up for a crazy deal, I'm stoked to have it in the tent so quickly and it's definitely giving adequate lighting. Wall to wall, 860 watts of greatness helping the plants thrive!

Grow Questions

highdro_wfhstarted grow question a year ago

Am I doing LST correctly? I have the main stem bent down and believe there are new stems coming up.

Check the pics, is this a light or nutrient issue? The leaves were super bright yellow/green near the stems.

Leaves. Color - Yellow

Hashyanswered grow question a year ago

It's quite hard to tell with the pictures because grow lights tend to make the leaves look a little different then in reality. I'd say for an auto and in dwc you are probably at the top end of the Ec for your nutes. I'd be tempted to increase your ph to 6 from 5,8 incase any nutes are being locked out.

When my autoflowers head into flowering, do I or can I add any additional additives or nutrients to it? I've heard of people running Jack's 321 all the way through. Currently my PPM is around 800. This question might be suited for people that use Jacks 321 exclusively.

Im not a pro. But least i know, might stop feeding or begin flush is 2 wks bfore harvst. Personally, i dont know autos but in photos, i start putting less water in the soil too.

You can but it's not necessary. If you decide to, the amounts would be different for autoflower and photoperiod.

I had an extra light sitting around from another kit, a Mars Hydro TS600. I went ahead and set it up in my tent, are there any negatives to more lights?I now have a 4x4 with Mars Hydro TSW2000 and TS600.

Solved

Setup. Lighting

damianfoxanswered grow question a year ago

As long as your LUX and temps remain in check you can add as many lights as you like. :) Get a cheap Amazon LUX meter if you don't have one. Seedling - 10-15k LUX Veg - 15-30k LUX Flower 30-45k LUX Do NOT go over 50k LUX it can start bleaching the buds. For temp's make sure the canopy of your plants do NOT go over 84F

looking so nice, about your LST question yes but I would recommend using another type of tying, other than spun rope, it is better to use the ones sold in garden stores, green and soft so as not to damage with chafing. 🙏

@Seedsman, Thank you for the feedback! I'll grab some of those from my local hydro store. I actually have my eyes on the next grow and was looking into your BOGOF deals, I just purchased an AirCube system so I'm excited for that next grow (and 2nd grow) already!
