So we made it into week 3! This time i will do for my first time LST. I will buy bamboo sticks for the tying. Water ๐Ÿ’ง Day 15 : No water Day 16 : No water. The soil now that i have put my lamp higher isn't getting dry as fast so it doesn't need watering this day too. Day 17 : 1lt each plant Day 18 : No water Day 19 : No water Day 20 : 1lt each plant Day 21 : No water Light โ˜€๏ธ Day 15 : My girls got light stress so i changed my lamp to 25cm distance from them. The leaves that got stressed are only the first ones so I don't bother a lot because the others seem healthy๐Ÿ˜‹ LST Day 16 : Bought wooden sticks to tie my Coated Wire and start my LST. I was nervous doing it but I got used to it fast. Already learned some tips to make it better and more efficient to do Day 20 : LST stops ๐Ÿ˜ข Nutes ๐Ÿ” Day 17 : Changed the dosage to 1ml/l each Day 20 : Added to the mix Cal-Mag to fix deficiencies So it's day 20. Today I did a big mistake. I snapped the stem of Sol in an attempt to bend her for her LST. It's not good news and it frustrates me even more the fact that it happened so quickly without putting force and without even waiting for such a reaction. The spot for newbie of the month is probably lost and I don't even know if Sol is going to survive. I treated her immediately taping the stem tight and gave her some support with a stick. What I believe happened and I would like for you guys to write me on the comments your opinion, is that this happened for two reasons. Firstly, because I started LST way too early (Day 15) and bended them more than it should and secondly because I tried to bend the branches in the opposite direction that they were going (I think I did that today). Well, my energy is down for the moment but I am feeling my spirit getting fired up. Of course I have a lot more to learn to achieve top notch grows and I am not going to give up. For now I am stopping their LST and will let them grow as they are, but I am going to do more research, acquire more knowledge and start my next grow with better training. ๐Ÿ™ Week 3 just finished. I will keep up with positive vibes๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ช

Iโ€™d start low like you were suggesting! Your plant wonโ€™t die from too little nutrients but it could definitely become stunted or die if you use too much! When it comes to autos less is more, I always start 1/8-1/4 strength in Veg then 1/2 to full strength in flower!

It could be done but itโ€™s not recommended. The solution will become anaerobic and stagnant which could introduce harmful bacteria and pathogens to the medium. Itโ€™s always better to keep things fresh!

Fruitgroweranswered grow question 3 years ago
The only thing you can mess up is snapping a branch...but when it's this young is doesn't really happen. But definitely do your research before if you're worried. ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ‘It's really just as simple as bending the central branch and tying it down, this causes all the secondary branches to become dominant and stretch.

Foliar Spraying while the lights are on make the drops as magnifiers and burn the plant. Spray while the lamp is off. Stomata on the leaves take 15-20mins to close after the lamp is turned off ,Cheers

The Spider Farmer is powered by 301s w/ a 100 watt driver. The TS1000 is powered by different diodes and is driven to 150 watts. The TS1000 is 743 umol at 18"the SF 602.. If we judging on output alone the TS1000 has higher amounts of photons at given height so it is a better light. But if we were judging on efficiency the 301s are slightly more efficient so the SF-1000 might be a better choice there.. But really what the next concern would be is Cost and Warranty coverage.. Make the right call for your wallet.

Hi there, I would say it is normal that pistils turning brown.Because they are mostly the first female calyx where your pre flower start.So they will be turning orange and fallen first.Another thing is you can accidentally touch or damage.As long as they are not on buds, you donโ€™t need to worry.Happy growing... โœŒ๏ธ

Hi there,You should only defoliate if there is a good reason.Like do some defoliation to lower down tent humidity,to make a good air flow if too bushy.Defoliate some leaves If they are damaged or shaded below the canopy.May be some lollipopping if there are too many pop corn buds underneath.Other than those, I wouldnโ€™t do. Recommend to defoliate at the start of flowering circle and again at 3rd week of flower or at the end of stretching period.At that time, you will know which one to remove and which one to leave.Happy growing... โœŒ๏ธ

A soil soak flush is designed by nutrient companies to sell another product. Of this I'm convinced. No need to flush. But near the end of the plants life cycle I would suggest around 2 weeks before harvest stopping nutrients and use only water. This will allow the plant to feed off its self and remove the nasty taste and flavors from what you've worked so hard to grow. ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿ˜ค
