Winter Indoor Grow - Autos in SCROG

Gnats don't seem to be a problem so far... looks like I have that side of the equation under control. Now it's just the temp. I installed a cool mist humidifier which is actually really needed cuz my room is dry at the moment (30%). It's a double edged sword really... dry is good to get rid of gnats, but I want to get the humidity up for the seedlings... I'm going to turn down the temp in the house... particularly at night. We can get away with a cool house when we are sleeping or at work. I'm striving to get down to 27C.

Gnats spawn when the soil has not been sterilized/steamed (horticulture grade) or from excessive humidity so the main thing you can do against gnats is just let the soil dry out and get better dirt ... Hope this helps !

Just a heads up if you are using the mars 1600 it’s not actually 1600 watts, on full spectrum with both buttons turned on should be around 630watts so if you change your light wattage on your harvest page to the true watts then your grams per watts should be higher and more accurate 👍👍 beautiful work tho so keep it up 🤘🌱

I wish I could get trichomes shots like that! Those buds look pretty tasty. Yours look like they actually have a red strawberry color. I have been watching some grows on the strawberry cheesecake. I will definitely be grabbing some on my next seedsman order.

Good luck and good growth

About two days ago, I discovered that by peeling back the insulation in the attic, above my grow space, the temps in the room were reduced by as much as 8 degrees during daylight hours...and it's not even really winter yet....gotta remember to put it back before summertime, but it was an easy remedy. Last winter, I had to crack a window open in the room where my tents were so that the intake was pulling really cold air into the tents....just gotta seal off the room and maybe wear a jacket when you do your gardening.. Another inexpensive and effectual solution is to add a small evaporative cooler to your tent. It will lower your temps by 5-10 degrees and produces no heat to exhaust. Plus you can add carbon filter material to it's intake so as to also serve as an odor remover. The one I bought even has a built-in negative ion generator(Anion) for further odor control. Regarding gnats, a half-inch layer of inorganic sand (like builder's sand or kids sandbox sand) on the top of your soil will at least slow them down, if not wipe them out completely. They lay their eggs in soil, and if they can't access it, they die off.

If your not already using one try adding a cool mist humidifier to your grow tent it should drop your temps about 5 degrees at least.

To avoid bugs put in ladybugs. With HPS lamps they would die if they fly against it. With Led I think it is safer 😁 also praying mantises, spinosadproducts. Sticky traps and neem oil are very good against those pests and bugs

I have the same scrog built and waiting for my next grow.😄 I made my squares 3" x 3" not knowing what size was the best and I was thinking the same as you with wondering about how many plants to go with. I'm glad I'm still some time away from scrogging so I can watch and see if 4 plants are a yay or nay...😜 4 Autos and a Scrog.... title of movie... 😵😂 I'm excited for ya!!!

That lsd is looking great!! Do you mist the plants with the led light on? That could be the cause of the leaf problems on the northern.

Hi very new here. I have 7 Northern lights seeds and one is taking I did peat pods after water. Planting today in 5 gal pot. What is that screen for you have.

It's just so so good

Hey Anne, the trichomes look so milky! Have you grown this strain before? I wonder if a few more days would get the buds to fatten a bit more. I'm growing a LSD myself right now from Barney's but it's the photoperiod strain, so I'm just asking for when the time comes. Good luck with the harvest! Tchau, do Brazil! =)

Lol love those pics of wet dirt 😂

Hi, how do you picture the trichomes so nicely?

Looks really nice. Seems like theirs always one freak plant in the bunch when growing.👍

Good luck bro 🤞 I send you lots of good vibes! 🙏

Mancano 20-25gg 😀

Yummy with every sample

Canopy is all evening out. Can't wait to see those buds fatten up.
