Grow Questions

Ghosttownstarted grow question 5 years ago
At day 47 I've noticed a significant increase in bud formation. I'm worried about light pen and support. Im running 3 plants in a 4x4 area. Should I install a net like a late Sea of Green growing style to help spread buds out for light pen and support when heavy or thin her out?
Solved
Buds. Other
Leaves. Too many
Plant. Spaces between nodes

Hi first of all your plants look really beautiful 😍👍🙏🏻. There are several ways to support aie :-) You can do it as you say with the net, you can support it with bamboo sticks (see my grows). You can also tie yourself to the tent poles with a thread or extra plant jojo 👍 Keep it up

Day 63 Water Day 64 Bloom Day 65 Came into my grow room today and noticed my girls looked very hungry. its too late into bloom cycle to add dry amend to topsoil. It's compost tea time. My first so I hope I did it right. I started with de chlorinated tap water. Added shrimp manure earthworm castings molasses bat guano powdered kelp in a 400 micron bag aerated for 24hr. Waters ppm was 740 after this brew. Ph was at 6.6. Let's see if it Day 66 Not sure if it worked still yellowing from back left. Possible that this plants turning mature colours. Day 67 Water small amount. Day 68 Leaves are really yellowing so I decided to try foliar feed. Day 69 Blooming plant is yellowing

Day 70 Bloom time checking trikes. Clear but think and long. Good head forming on trikes. I'll try to take some pics. Check em out. Day 71 Bloom. Day 72 Watered them because the pot seemed light. I also upgraded my grow room with a sensor that records humidity and temperature 24 hours a day and uploads it to my phone to see high low or potential problems. I checked the trichomes with a Jeweler's loupe in my microscope and they're still clear possibly turning cloudy. Maybe 10% cloudy Day 73 Same for trikes at day 72. The plant in the front left looks like she's suffering from some deficiency. So I'm going to give her some spot treatments of some quick nutrients. Day 74 I hope I don't burn her. But I feel I need more than a micro dose. Friend dropped off some Overdrive. I'm gonna dose them tonight. I keep thinking of the song should I cut or Let It Grow. If no cut tomorrow maybe double should I cut or Let It Grow now. LOL can you get the song Day 75 Bloom plants not showing signs of stress from feeding. Gonna hold off on pics for a few days to show a greater change. Day 76 The plant is showing nanners so I'm pulling her from the grow tent for 48 hours of Darkness then I'm cultivating her. The other plants are still fattening their buds with white stigmas so I'm going to let them go a few more days.
