So as beautiful as everything was progressing for the first like 8 weeks. The back two plants totally went off the rails.. They stretched a foot more then the other 2 plants. I used the lux readings to try and make the light as close as possible without going to high and still “spreading” the light to as many nodes as well. This is a big canopy and it is very hard to do certain things. Like getting a dead leave is an Acrobatic feat requiring patience and crawling. Evolving setup for sure. The Ultra Violet OG says never give up doing small changes to a plant. If it's telling you something isn't right, Keep trying to find that solution. The Ultra Violet OG has turned from a runt to the Tallest Lankiest kid in the tent lol. The blue cookies, what a freaking mess. I was spending a bit too much time with the small tent and not doing certain things in the big tent. So the Blue cookies what I did was “man handle” the plant and push a lot of the nodes away from the centre of the plant. This “opened” the centre of the plant and lots of small/grown nodes. Um I don't know if this would be a good idea for every plant. The plant is strong and healthy so it barely seemed to phase it. The Do Si Dos has stretched out as well. In retrospect having the two stretch together is about the best of a bad situation. Right now the light is mounted about 15 degrees off and right over top of the “small” plants. Trying to get as much light to as many nodes as possible. It's about 50k to 48” round of canopy. So it's fairly uniform and even across the canopy all things considered. The Zkittlez/Gorrila didn't really stretch I mean it did but when you compare them to the others not even in the same ball park. There is a lot there so hopefully it all turns out. Growing Cannabis should be very hands on. I spend 30-45 mins every few days in each tent just moving things around. This is a great way to inspect the canopy and too make sure there's nothing hiding underneath. Your plant isn't made of glass and “moving” thing around gently won't hurt it and can be very beneficial long term. Thanks for reading the ramblings of the mad half naked grower. The Fable of the Little boy and his tree There once was a boy whom lived in a village The people they farmed for food they did not pillage The little boy knew he had to learn to grow He ordered a seed and to the village a splendid tree he would show He waited and waited for the messenger to arrive He's soil was ready, he's nutrients full and his ambitions, a mile high The seed it arrived he jumped with glee He planted it at the front of the house for all to see It didn't grow fast, it didn't grow quick The little boy was worried to the village he'd look a dick The others of the village would look at his tree with dismay Where's the manifold? Where's the trimming? Are you growing hay? The little boy was alone with his tree he would cry He knew if he loved it, cared for it and gave it his best try That the plant would grow big, strong and wide With the love from the boy the seed grew in stride It got bigger and bigger the seed that started so small People came from far and wide to look at the tree so tall Those in the village asked what did you do? Did you use a special kind of poo? The little boy laughed and became one of the best growers in the Village His trees grew tall and his legend would last beyond his visage For he had learned the most important knowledge of all That Love is the most important nutrient of all

So the seed casing of the purple star killer did not open without some help about 6-7 days after initial germ. Iv'e had some catch and seen some struggle but nothing like it did.... Would you guys guess that it's gonna be a poor grower? Would manually opening it earlier help?

Hi. The structure of the seedshells changed.Some strains are very well known to have hard shell like Jack Herer, those plants like to chop of their own head with thse strong shells. But if they are out of shell they normally behave like other seeds. I( dont know how you germinate the Seeds , but here are some Tips to handle hard seedshells. a) put some seeds in a small plasticbox and shake them very well for around a minute. So litle cracks appear in the shell and it opens easier b) let them soak into lukewarm water up to 24 hours......... after that procedures a shell opens much better

Hi I don't like the concept of putting a lot of effort into things. What is Required to Grow Cannabis? Like I know it can be tricky but where do I start? Is it at all possible for you to like grow it for me?

What a Question. I think ist required to have s sense of slef reflexion and Plantempathy to grow good weed. You have to have a Connection to your Plants, and see what is good for them and what is not so good. Technically seen i would say, The growmedium and the Lights are the most important Things for a grow.

@Mrs_Larimar, Lol thanks a lot Larimar. I try to be humorous, a little entertaining and informative. I do love my plants 😁 . I think I told you one time in pm I get sad😥 when I chop them and I do lol. A part of me is like don't kill this thing, it's so pretty and nice. But putting stuff on the scales is like another fun part of the adventure lol. Not even gonna get into smoking the plants I grow, that'd be like another paragraph or two lol.

I do it like you do and asolutely agree. I only do " naked flush"( only with water) if i have excesses or a builtup.. that means maybe one or 2 times a year . So iam using water, kelp, molasses p+k , and humic acid the most Time. Your Girls look very good!!!. and i agree , very good canopy shape

To be honest, I really appreciate it when people are honest about their yields. It's a good way to keep hobby growers like ourselves hopeful and motivated to keep growing. When some people are like, "yep, I got a kilo dried from this one plant," it's enough to make the rest of us want to just throw it all away and give up. I've been looking at a lot of large yields on this site too, and I have to say that you can see that some of the people are obviously just bullshitting. So if any of you who are reading this like to falsify your dry weights, just so you know, we all know you are lying.

@MovingOn, Dude you just made up my mind and my day really thank you. I will post my yields for guys like you. I mean to me in hindsight it's kind of obvious what happened with the Back 2 they kind of got crowded out and the top buds didn't get that light intensity they need. I was having a bad day and I forget sometimes that their are still honest folks and for some it isn't just about ego. It's about learning. And you are right it's so obvious some times that yields are overinflated... I won't name names but some pretty savage examples Iv'e seen. And I was kind of like in that head space where I'm like shit if a lot of folks are dishonest then what's the point. You brought me out of the head space. Thanks dude your awesome and I'm glad we get a chance to "grow" together 😁👍

@Mrs_Larimar, I have no fenced yard so I am very wary of growing anything "special" outdoors I would throw a clone or two out. We have a lot of bears in the area and wild life. And we also have a lot of hippy stoners in the area and someone stealing my outdoor grow would probably "break" me lol. So I stick to inside safe but with out the awesome powers of the Sun. I think if I was gonna do a "room" it would get rather expensive I'd want it sealed up properly and with quality ventilation. Legalized growing is fantastic and I am lucky to live where I do. I'm sure if I smelled enough houses in my neck of the woods I'd be smell growing cannabis all over the place 😁 … So many things to consider when growing Cannabis and I'm glad having the police come and take my shit is no longer a possibility in my country. I can only hope that one day every country in the world will be Smart enough to make the right choice and Legalize.... Honestly I forget a lot of people don't have the luxuries and freedoms we do.

You are kind of funny 😀 You are doing hydroponics, topping and training and ask for the most simplistic approach. Quite some contradiction... Have a look at my first grow for the KISS approach. I'm lazy and unexperienced, so want to keep things as simple as possible. This means: 1. Grow in soil. But buy some good soil! No need to monitor pH or EC and reduced risk of overwatering. And it will provide the best aroma. 2. Use organic nutrients. Very low risk of overdosing. Simply follow the recommendations of the manufacturer. They have decades of experience and cannot be totally off. 3. Do not train. I'm still not convinced this will guarantee some bigger yield. Main argument for topping and LST is the even canopy. But many newbies are still failing on this one, break some stems and in the end the canopy is not that even anyway. By using multiple small lights instead of a single huge one you can compensate for an uneven canopy. So in the end you only need to get the watering right. I'm very happy with the results and see no reason to make it any more complicated. Unless you enjoy it of course 😉

@Buddha2, I really like growing in Hydro... I really like my results and don't mind the work. I don't see a point in growing in soil if I already have all the hydro stuff (It's expensive). When I grow plants in soil now, they are my "b grade" plants that I won't put as much attention or effort into and the results speak for themselves 😁. It's all relative as well, lots of dirt guys put in tons of work (testing ph and run off). I say I spend about 2-3 hours every week which is not to shabby at all in my mind. The hardest part of hydro is setting things up. My question was satire lol. I guess sarcasm is lost in translation.. Was a joke Question.

@Mrs_Larimar, Yes and I do love my Fur babies. I'm gonna try to get better filtration for the tents and open the tents less often ha ha ha. Very Frosty it's like Christmas but hard work paying off is so much better then free presents lol. My plant positions relative to the light made me learn a great deal more about how I should be setting up my tent. I wasn't a huge fan of the scrog because after I certain point I couldn't do anything. But another great learning grow lol.. There are all learning grows and next one will be even better. Thank you for reading and commenting always appreciated. 😁

Simplest way of growing would be to grow outdoors, you only need a big pot, good soil and water and a couple of seeds. Next step up, would be a simple indoor setup: just choose a light type and and exhaust. Everything else is optional, although many things are recommended: like a carbon filter. Keep in mind that good soil and a big enough pot will save you the trouble of using bottled nutes.

Garden is looking awesome! That canopy is a thing of pure envy! I agree with you about flushing Cannabis. I know a grower that flushes for 2 weeks before harvest and another "old-timer" who never flushes... And both of their buds taste amazing. I flush because, like you said, it makes me feel good and i tell myself that it's good, even though it's based on nothing more than wishful thinking. I do know that a fair number of commercial hydroponic growers of things like lettuce, mint and tomatoes do periodic flushes but my understanding is that it has more to do with flushing and cleaning the delivery system of dried nutrients/salt buildup, rather than for any reasons of taste or final quality of the produce. I'd be curious if anyone can find info on commercial food producers who flush for "increased quality". I can't wait to see your garden in full bloom... Especially that Blue Cookies 😍. Looks amazing! 👍

@VanCplGrows, Thank you very much. It's definitely shaping up to be an Impressive haul. I totally understand the need to "flush" the system of the nutrients in hydro systems and I do this weekly(tip for all you new folks). I like how you know two different growers doing different things with the same end results. With you as the end user being like both are good ha ha ha. I would love to hear from any Commercial food grower really, especially the ones that eat their own produce lol. I'm looking quite forward to seeing the garden in full bloom as well 😁
