Hello everyone π€π€π€, I'm back again, The City FarmeR is here with another week for you guys, lol
Well guys, this week I said to myself, self they may look small but since I already have my 5 leafers growing I'm going to top them, so I went ahead and did it, lol on day 2 I took them and cut off the tops, I also sent them over some, I also feed them some more of the stage 2 solution from the Technaflora recepie for success, , I didn't have anything to tie them down so I just gently pushed them down daily because they keeped reaching up and I wanted the new growth in between.
On day 6 I got myself some string, I pocket some holes in the pots and tied them down so this time they can stretch themselves out before going back up, and since they felt light again I feed them some more.
For those who don't know, the reason I topped them was to create bushes instead of Christmas trees, this way I should get multiple tops instead of one, and the reason I tied them up was so the new growth gets the maximum amount of light that they can and hopefully grow faster.
There in there new home for this stage of there growth I'm hoping this space will keep the light and heat in better for them and give me better growth, we shall see, well I'll keep you guys posted, wish me luck, lol βοΈβοΈπππππ€π€π€π€ππππβοΈβοΈ
Happy growing and happy new year πππ i think you should move your light closer to the girls it should be arround 6inch(15cm) from top with T5 lights πππJust saying
@Silky_smooth, really?? That's good to know, I'm planning on building my grow area this week and that's good info for light and plant placement, and thats something I haven't done any homework in, lol, thank you
Still thinking your lights are to far from plants i use to grow with 200w cfl and in veg i kept them abouth 10cm away from top plants and in flower as close as 8 ππ mean no Harm but iβm growing for about 20years now and 13 of them i have grown with t5 and cfl and i had harvests of 85 to 100 pp so i pretty much know how to with cfl but you know sometimes its hard for a dude to take advise from a lady but feel free to ask around βοΈβοΈππ
@Silky_smooth, they really like there new home tho, I know when I'm done it will be good, even tho this is only my trial run while I finish my grow room, I would still like them to turn out good, and who said growing had anything to do with male/female? You have definitely been doing this longer than me and I would be a fool not to take advise from someone who has experience... I am happy to be able to talk to people just like y'all, thank you everyone on growdiaries βοΈβοΈβοΈ
@Silky_smooth, I did, I tried it, I had them about 9" inches away but they started developing some spots and drying on the leaves. I don't know if there's a difference between t5? The one there under is a t5 ho, supposed to be pushing 20,000 lumes
@HighTV, thank you, I hope to impress everyone with my skills this time, I just need to get my grow area dialed down, I'm used to growing outdoors, lol
