Flower day 16(pics): the girls really liked me lowering the light to 36".. I wasn't really getting much stretch again, 2nd time in a row and after research and going over notes I don't think I was giving them enough energy to stretch.. so I'm at 36" now with my 400w LED still
The space is filling in nicely and flower balls are very evident everywhere, started showing about day 9or10 flower.
This is officially my 3rd soil grow, so I'm getting my watering amount and timing down.. watering much more heavy but less often.. these 4) 5 gal pots get 3 gals total now and I used to give them 1-1.5...
they seem to like that more too.
BIG THANKS TO THE GROW BOSS AND HIS YOUTUBE CHANNEL... if you haven't checked it out and your struggling... go there NOW :)
Thanks for coming by check out all my grows, I'm getting better and my current veg (mixed fruit led) diary will be better than this one
@JUNGLE_B4RNS,
I started with LEDs due to being gifted an LED herb garden... it spiraled out of control from there hahah
I have tried MH/HPS , T5, and LED..
Can't control temps on HPS
Can't fit T5 in one of my tents
LEDs took a while to dial in..
Biggest problem is they don't scatter the light well, they are too focused like Grow Boss says..
If I were to purchase lights now..
I would go COB (if I understood it)
Or CMH.. I'm sure 2 315w CMH would yield what a 1k HPS would yield with 60% less heat and power... put them on a light mover and have a couple rows in a room... blowing up!!
:)
But that's a future build
Thanks for stoping by, always nice to hear from you, love your set up too!
@CaliGrown,
Yea I think that is called "real growers recharge"
It is the same basic product.. I've seen lots of ppl that use that product here..
like grow boss says "it's all the same shit" 😬
@Fun_Growin,yeah man you got the knowledge that I was hoping to get. Thank you! running recharge right now. Adding it to the feed lineup once every two weeks.
@CaliGrown,
Great white as far as I know is the most comprehensive microbiotic formula. Clone ex has a good one too and there are others..
I also use worm castings and granulated microriza in my soil mix and transplant holes
Microriza will increase yields 5-15% in any healthy garden, they also keep the roots clean and take less energy from the plant than they give, and as they die they become nutrients themselves (because they digest them)
If you add a sweet product or molasses to your grow, you are actually feeding these organisms not your plant your plants cannot take up glucose fructose and shoe sucrose (sugar) it can only make its own..
They cannot sustain their own population so you eather
A- have to help feed them
B- add them every 10-14 days
C- put in granulated and organic so they release and breakdown over time
Or do what I do and use a little of all that
Hope this helps
@@Tryhard,
Back at ya mad respect truly had nothing to do with you
I'm ashamed to say that pineapple was like 80-90 days old when put in flower for 73days..
It survived a lot,
Bugs from a failed DWC tent next to it, a week or more with no power but a small generator off and on and in took a lot of clones from her.
Now I'm working off of mothers and trying a couple SOGs
Hope fore more yield and also easier canopy management.
