@Belgiums_basement_budz, I'll be doing that for my next grow, because all the stores in my neighbourhood were either closed or didn't carry the pvc piping :(. But you'll see I tried a cheap fix! For my next grow I will be customising my closet further, and a pvc-trellis is one of the things I'm adding. Bur for now, I'm happy and eager to see how my grow continues! :D Thanks for the support man, stay green! 👽

Hello buddy you should lower your dose of fertilizer and take advantage of your transplant to water once or twice with clear water ph6. 1 this will allow you to not saturate your roots and correct your deficiency 👍 Good luck for your grow 🤞🌱

@Tikihoofd,💚🙏

@Master_weeda, I followed your advice on only clear water after the transplant (except the first time after the transplant, because then I did use water with nutrients). Thanks for the kind words, and I wish you and your grows also alot of good luck! 👌

Looking very good bro! It's best to try and mix nutes as you need it, unless you have a automated system with a reservoir. I've found mixing a large amount in veg wastes so much, so it's best to break it down. If the label says 10L....divide it by 10 to get your litre amount - i.e if it says add 10ml to 10L then you know to add 1ml of nutes to your 1L of water.... but lot of the time the manufacturers dosage is too much so I'd be care to not overdue it and stunt or lock out your plant. Best to get a ppm meter to check. Also best to give them a week or so to settle into their new pots before flip. if you can scrog them after potting up that would save you some height! Looking good so far 👍

@Tikihoofd, I started growing less than 6 months ago and have learnt so much. Zip ties are a growers best friend ;) you can use them to attach your net and start tucking under as they grow through. Update looks good. You'll be buzzing once they start praying and packing on buds 😋 I got this strain to grow for the Spring Cup so i'll be keeping an eye! 😉

Tikihoofdcommented5 years ago

@YOREEL, thanks for the informative reply man! Much appreciated. I indeed started breaking down the water/nutes schedule to make sure I wasn't making too much which would then be thrown out. I just repotted them, and will follow your advice on waiting a couple of days to a week before flipping to flowering. Scrogging is something I've been thinking about, so I might aswel give it a try. Height will be my main issue when flipping, so anything that helps keeping them smaller is well appreciated. :) Maybe one stupid question; should I be continuing my LST now that I've repotted them, or wait out the week aswel before doing that. Thanks!!!!

They look really good 👍🏻 But try to raise your rh to a minimum of 60 in veg,a bowl or glas of water should help with that About the height issue, You can veg for longer times if you use a scrog and keep your genetics in mind Definitely with those pp Sativa genetics Closet height minus ligh space,light to plant space,pot height and plant height after veg= flower space I grow in a 90x90x160 tent and my largest cola ever is the size of my forearm but I use mostly Indica dominant strains indoors Good luck and keep up the good work 🤞✌️🌱

@Belgiums_basement_budz, I had a humidifier with them all the time at 45%. I've switched it out now, following your advice to save some space in the closet. About the size-issue; I'm quite afraid sometimes to defoliate too much of the leaves because the lower branches are not getting enough light through the fanleaves (they're about the size of my hand, if not larger). They're relatively small atm. But they will need alot more grow before I will put them over to blooming. By then I'm afraid that the foliage/canopy is so dense that the lower branches will have literally no light. That's why I'm trying to LST the plants right now, to use the most of the space I have in my small cabinet. Cheers!!

They are looking pretty fine 👍🏻💪🏻 And a trellis made from pvc is an easy build but don’t forget to fill the pipes with sand for extra weight if you gonna make a hanging trellis,otherwise those pretty ladies will lift the whole thing when they start to stretch. I hung my first trellis from the roofbars down and after a few day’s I had to tie to the floor 😅 Also I added chains on the corners so I can adjust height easily with 2 light hangers I can send you some pics of 1 i made a day’s back if you want Happy growing and stay safe ✌️🌱

Belgiums_basement_budzcommented5 years ago

@Tikihoofd,there’s noting wrong with a good defoliation,I use that technique 2 on my photo strains but I’m not as agressif with it like you😅..i’m Only take 1/3 at the time..first round is a bit agressif tho if I’m working with a scrog😅 I completely remove the lowest part of leafs and smal growth. 2 weeks later I remove the biggest leafs of the mid section and after 2-3 weeks of flowering(when the strech is finished)the remaining top section Just my way of doing it..not even sure if that is a good way of doing it but it works for me 😅 They sure look like they don’t mind..Leafs standing nicely upwards 💪🏻 Happy growing and stay safe ✌️🌱

Tikihoofdcommented5 years ago

@Belgiums_basement_budz, The lower ones didn't get alot of light, so that's why I chose to do it. Also to induce some more stress so they build more trichomes and so they can use more of their nutrition for the top buds. Let's hope it was worth it! Checked on them today, and they've been growing steadily again, so I don't think they had a hard time recovering.

@Tikihoofd, hey better a cheap fix then no fix,and it did the job so is was a good cheap fix 😂 yeah they look really good 👍🏻 May a bit agressif on the leafstrip but I’ve seen other growers doing it with out problems so why not Curious about how they gonna react to it
