Dears, please tell if there is any value of using CO2 generator for aquarium?

Hello ! So as your soil is a pre-fertilized soil you will not have to use nutrients until the end of week 3 , however you can start using nutrients for roots such as rhizotonic or enzymes right now on the 1st week to settle some benefical bacteria in your soil . Then you will probably need to use a Grow/veg nutrient ( a couple time ) to help her during the late veg and the 2 first week of flowering then you need to switch to a bloom/flowering nutrient and maybe some Pk booster and taste enhancer if you think it is necessary. Now concerning your Co2 generator I think you can use it cauz Co2 will remain the same molecule but the Co2 need to be controle so check it and make a little math to know if the generator can be set up to automatically power on or off when CO2 levels reach a specific ppm (higher than 2000ppm will kill your plant) , and you have to know that Co2 is more efficient with high temps like 30/32 °C. I hope it will help you 😁👍

Dears,my plant is growing in very compact way. Leafs are very close to each other.It is 5th week already, i want to move it to flowering stage, but it is too short.I served 100w 3500k LEDs for flowering.Can i turn light to 12/12 with 180w and attach 100w at 3rd week of flowering?

Your plant is doing fine , you will see that during the flower stage your plant will gain a little height with a lot of mass. As for your light situation i would likely go and get more lights because in flower more light exposure = more and bigger flowers . You can make due with what you have now but from what you describe its not enough . You will run into a few problems if you dont have enough light for flowering one of the problems is that the development of the bud sites and the buds themselves will be slower , the buds wont be as tight they will be more airy and you may not get as much of a yield . That's not to say you can't still do it with what you have now cause you can it will just affect your yield big time . If your on a budget or not that interested in spending big $$$$ there is cheap alternatives to get the job , the cheapest way would be to get a digital ballast from amazon or w.e they sell kits with the lights for like 50 $ or you can get T5 super output lamps to combine with what you already have for like 30$ a piece there is lots of option's to choose from but its all in what you wanna do with it ! I hope this information has helped on your journey to becoming a grow master ! <3 -Happy Growing!

Dears, I am still defoliating plant to make light penetrate lower flowers. It this right on this stage of flowering? Can i make LST? Or better to not make her additional stress ? I think that my girl is very small for this stage( What do you thing ? Thanks in advance.

Hi @paparazzi! Avoid any kind of stress after the 2nd week of flowering, you don't want the plant to drive its energy into recovering, you want her to give everything she got into bud fattening & resin production. Indeed your plant looks small, but at this stage there's not much you can do, LST (or any other technique) won't help you to get more nodes, this should have been done earlier. Hope that makes sense, keep us up-to-date and happy growing 👊

Just served 3500k 100watt led lamps, want to move to flowering in one or two weeks. I have a question, what if i change hours schedule to 12/12 with 180 watt (380-740nm) and add 100 (3500k) watt more when the lamps will be arrived? is it ok, or i can add additional stress to her?

nobody can tell to you the right recipe to have a perfect weed..in my opinion the best weed is under the sun and without nutrients( only humus and bananas).
Greenjum

in my opinion the cold water in the last flush is better and after you have to wait that the soil is dried. i don't make 48 hours before harvest..i don't know about this. i think it doesn't change the bud size but the thc level and anthocyanins

@@Greenjum, how about ice cubes at 3 days before harvesting and bring plant into 48 hours night? Does this have sense on bud size ?

your plant looks a bit overwatered. Be careful, overwatering can harm more than under watering. Good luck with the grow!

@GrassNaples,today i had cut some leafs that had been under the plant. And done some LST.

@paparazzi, noted, it seems to be a strain which grows small and bushy, with short branches and very close leaves. See that your colleague of growing mantained a very short distance between plant and lamp, only 15 cm , because of the fact that light has difficulties to penetrate leaves. ciao !

Hey Paparazzi, i think you already defoliated in the last weeks, this is fine, but no more... why? you're already at the end of the flower stretch and you don't want to cause any stress to the plant so it can make flowers and not leaves, if you take too much the plant will focus on making leaves not flowers, and i guess you like buds not fan leaves ! Is your plant small ? yes in a way, probably a combination of things like the heat (28°C) is too high, the pot is kind of small, the lights are a bit weak, and of course the plant suffered a lot of stress from the HST. Because you see for you it's just taking a leaf off, but for the plant it's HST ! but I do think this plant will grow more, and even if it doesn't i think the defoliation and other stuff will make fat buds, so don't worry. So far everything is fine, just keep doing what you're doing and give the plant a rest. Hope this helps man ! 🚀

@paparazzi, make sure you cut in the dark after a dark period (I do 12hrs but the best growers do 24-48hrs) this will help with the taste you LL see

@paparazzi, Dear, it seems to me you're watering very well, 0.2 lt/day is in my opinion the correct water qty for your plant dimension , I've had great results this way first 2 weeks , with less water, too. Maybe you could boost your plant energy and growing starting to use a root boost , like Bio-Root BioBizz and similar and a bit little (just a bit little, 0.5 ml about ) of a organic growing booster. Good luck !

@GrassNaples,thanks bro. I will do so

@paparazzi, Hi Bro, yes, your plant looks me quite normal. I see it curl a bit little but it could be caused by other matters different from watering. I see you have 30 ° c in your room , maybe your plant is a bit little suffering for heating, even though substrate temp is Ok. I've seen these plants do react individually to many things such temperature, water, nutrients, lights, etc etc ... I think best temp is 24-25 ° C. I'm growing a tree (!) with 25 ° and a 600 w led light at 30 cm and less distance from plant ... I see you're using a 180 w led light. If you cannot refresh temp in your growing room, you can try to see if it's a light matter. I can suggest you to put lamp at a nearer distance , at 20/25 cm instead of 30, for one day , to see if leaves "wake up". With led technology you should not have any danger of burning leaves. All the best and good luck.

@GrassNaples, Dear, thanks for your reply. I am little bit confused by the fact that some leaves began to curl in that way. May be this is ok. What do you think, is my plant looks normal? Thanks in advance.
