Ordered pH down from GH since my tap water pH was a little higher. Starting to realize the hydro system I ordered was not really RDWC since lines were too thin and no water flow or return. I'm switching the hydro setup to DWC, the water changes were taking me less than an hour so I ditched the reservoir.

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.

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.

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!
