- flush all nutes m the tank is now 100% water
- trichome appear to be translucide.
had a suspicion of red mites , sprayed the plants with peroxid 3%
... there was no mites but now my leaves are a bit burned by the peroxid
Hi Fellow grower,
i need help planning my scrog ,
i was thinking starting to top my plant at the 5th nodes,
why ?
i am very limited in height (3*3*5) (LED grow) and i dont want to screw this up,
this is my first scrog, so any advise will be welcomed,
I grow in a grow box that has a total height of 3.18 inches. Although I do not SCROG, I use plenty of LST, TOPing and with the more unruly sativas, super cropping. When placing the SCROG net, be sure to leave at least 8 inches below the net so you can work under the canopy.
i am doing a scrog and the net is at 20cm.(my journal says 6but it is 4/5 weeks) one plant is growing very slowy and is bushy , compare to the other that grow fast and stretch a lot. Question: when to switch ? i was thinking another week will be good. opinion ?
So to me I would place your net and then veg for another 2-3 weeks till the net starts to fill up and then see from there . If the net gets full quickly you may want to think about switching to flower . If your net isn't getting full quickly then I advise you wait and veg a little longer till you see the net's base is starting to get full . You don't really wanna rush a scrog set up because then you're doing it for nothing essentially . So all in all I'd say you still got some time before you switch the lights , but at the end of the day its all about how you wanna run your show . I hope this information helps you to determine when you should flip the lights on a Scrog set up . - Happy Growing!
@Puffer_Bill,
thx mate it has been a fun ride,
first time with autopot, and i loved them !
ill have a look to Cannacure i was looking for something natural and safe for the flowers.

Nice job at LST/topping, you have her all spread out! What system are you using BTW? I couldn't help but notice pots above something else with tubes coming out.
@ElevatedThinking,
yes the only downside is that you cant use organic nute, because it will clogged the feeding line.
The only organic nute that will work is Biotab, it is not available in my country.
@mixo420, that's cool! I did some reading on that to understand more. In the future, I might be down for trying something like that, but for now I baby the ladies :-) I'm guessing that system will only work with certain nutrients ... I'm using organic BioBizz nutes for now.
@ElevatedThinking,
Thank you buddy,
I am using the awesome AUTOPOT system with the airdome , special thx to my growshop planta.shop whos help me out with my setup :)
Basically, you fill the tank with water and nute, and it is autofed by gravity to the bottom,
i use a mix of coco and peeble, the tube you see is the air tube connected to the airdome, that give an airboost to the roots.
This system is super handy for me as i am not oftent home, you basically set and forget, it is on autopilot
It's nice to see more high CBD grows being started on the grow diary platform. Very cool indeed 😎
Thank you for selecting our Purple Orange CBD for this grow my friend. She's a very easy strain to grow, produces some fine end product filled with CBD goodness 👌
I think you will do a fine job with this cbd rich strain and we will be along for the ride and watching with interest 👊
Good luck with the grow mate. Let's see what you can do👍
All the best ✌️

@DinafemSeeds,
Im waiting for the plant to start filling my net as i do a scrog.
I did a lot of LSTing today and some defoliation.
i also took new pics so please have a look to week6 and let me know
@mixo420, That would work out perfect. I would also consider some LST on the lower branches to help keep the plant canopy as low as possible 👍
How long do you plan on vegging (18/6) this plant my friend?
I think your getting close to bloom (12/12)?
All the best ✌️

@DinafemSeeds,
Mark, i appreciate your support !
Since you are here, i got a question
my tent is a 3*3*5, so im super limited in height,
i was thinking doing a scrog and start topping at the 5th set of leaves, will it be OK considering the stretch ?
What do you think ?
Why only 3 stars, buds looking good, harvest amount was pretty much.
Anything bad about the strain what leads you to this rating?
Apart from this very nice grow for your first ScrOG! Respect and enjoy your buds! 💚🌬️
@mixo420,
Ok, what a shame that your genetic and support wasn't great.
I cant rate the Dinafem products or their support because I never ordered from their shop but I always can recommend Royal Queen Seeds ... never made any negative experiences.
Good luck for your next grow! 💚🍀👍🏻
@GrowBeforeHoe, @DinafemSeeds,
the grow was nice and easy,
the poor rating is just because of the faulty genetic i had, and the poor support of dinafem regarding the issue.
Clearly their selection on this strain is not their best work , i lost time and money growing a dwarf, maybe i was just unlucky but i expected a bit more support from the dinafem crew.
Wow.... beautiful and sparkly.
😎💖.
Regarding spider mites or other. I use Cannacure. Its sprayed on once a week right up to harvest. It's a natural armour and also great for foliage.
@Puffer_Bill,
thx mate it has been a fun ride,

@mixo420, When we are growing from seed we get something called "phenotype" variance. If we take 2 strains and cross them the results should be 1 strain. In reality when creating strains you get a few different phenotypes.
1 will be like the mother plant
1 will be like the father plant
1 will be 50% mother and 50% father
Then we may get various phenos that display more of the mother or father.
We do try to minimalise this through selective breeding but you can not fight mother nature. The only way to get less variants in a grow would be to do a selective grow and select the perfect mother plant.
This way you can take clones/cutting and you will have the same crop time after time 👍
When growing from seed you will always get some pheno variance. You will find this will every breeder not just Dinafem 👍
I will log your complaint my friend!
All the best ✌️
Mark..
@The_Projexx,
thx for the tips on the net,
unfortually i had to switch to 12/2 due to my agenda, i will try to do best on the next session
@DinafemSeeds, i will like to issue a formal complaint, the phenotype of the my 2 plants are really not the same at all it like two different plants . i am really disappointed to be honest.
@Puffer_Bill,
thx, im not sure it is available in north america,
i do recommend peroxide, but you need to this in the night phase in order not to burn the leaves,
in my case is wasn't physically possible unfortunately
She looks like PGR weed, i hope its not ...
Colouring of leaves and crazy bud newgrows led me to that idea. Would never use it, even cinamon is my root booster for cloned plants .. that stuff brings great results and cancer ;)))
@AsNoriu,
nop i use super basic nutrient, from future harvest, jsut a 1/2/3 plan with calc , that it, no bud fattenner or other crap.
What make you say it look like PGR >?
i like to grow organic but it is not very handy with autopot (it might clog the system).
I already mentioned that colour of leaves and crazy, i mean crazy FAT and multi mini foxtailing. Buds are like granades, you can trim top of bud to atchieve that form aswell, but yours look like its some super genetics or PGR ;)))
No offence, just curios ....
Keep on !
Oh yes, our Purple Orange CBD is well into bloom now and putting out a ton of beautiful CBD rich budsites 👌
Looking great from this end my friend 👍
All the best ✌️
Mark..
Your entering the final weeks now my friend and you've done a fine job with our Purple Orange CBD 👍
Do you have a harvest day in mind mate?
Just going of the pictures I would say 7 maybe 10 more day's and it will be harvest time. Would you agree my friend?@mixo420
Until next time ✌️
All the best
Mark..
Another successful Dinafem harvest on the grow diary platform and this time with our Purple Orange CBD 👌
Time to sit back and enjoy those CBD rich flowers 👍
Congratulations on the harvest mate and thank you for the great diary 👊
Enjoy that fine looking end product my friend👌
All the best ✌️
Mark..
Nice job on the defoliation mate and done at the perfect time👌. Now that energy can get diverted into bud/flower production 👍
Please keep the updates coming my friend 👍
All the best ✌️
Mark..
