Fairly quiet week. A few fan leaves developed rust spots but this was because of an overdue res change. Nothing concerning. They fully recovered from the topping and began growing at a good pace all around, giving me a mostly even canopy. Noticed a few stigma poking through at the tops, so I can relax knowing they are officially females. Finished the res change on the last day of the week. I will also be flipping to flower tonight. Raised the EC to 1.8, adding a little extra nitrogen to support the stretch. They are hungry girls! I may have to raise the EC all the way to 2.0 by the end of the next week.

Grow Questions

The8thChevronstarted grow question 4 years ago
I have a 300w quantum board LED. Its a Mars Hydro TSW 2000. Should I add more light of a different type for flowering or should I just run the LED alone? I've heard people mention the UV-B lights.

Hey Chevron! Studies do show that little amounts of IR (Infra-Red) and UV (Ultra-Violet) are beneficial to plants and increase flower yield! In the Mars Hydro TSW 2000 you mentioned there are IR diodes ( you can see them in the middle of each diode row) so you have nothing to worry about that part, as for the UV it has very small benefit and mostly beneficial for vegetative growth so nothing to worry about in that part as well! Hope this helps! Good luck and happy growing :)

hey growmie, looks like you're stressing out because you're seeing ambers, some gens or environments have ambers show up, but when you count you're at about 60/40 clear / milky some sort if proportion of that is amber, but you should still hold until you're absolutely sure you've got them all milky. just get really into it with the microscope because sometimes you'll find wierd trichome gens that will milk up in really discreet ways, like really lightly or just the spot... you want to make sure you have it well understood before you pull the clippers out. Hope this helsp ! 🚀

Another great week of growth and all those lovely flower sites.😍. Be careful with extra light. They look so happy and healthy ATM you will change a lot by adding extra photons. Feeding will change co2 needs maybe different. They look so good with just the one light maybe hold off and start the next project with the 2 lights so you have a baseline. Just my thoughts. I mean look at them they are not crying out for more light..🤣👍

@Fruitgrower, that was the original idea, but there's logistical issues scrogging with dwc buckets.

@The8thChevron, maybe try a scrog net? 🌱👍

@Theia, fair point but my only goal is to get even light distribution over the canopy. Those tall shoots on the left are only getting about 15k LUX whereas the middle of the canopy is receiving about 50k LUX. Hoping to get a fairly even 50k across the entire canopy. We'll see though 😬

Agree with @bulbi - give er a few days and reassess on the binds and lows. The second those trichs on the lows start showing milky ur prolly good to go bud👍. Fantastic grow🤩

@TheBudWhisperer, I'm figuring they will be ready within a week or so, but I will wait til the lows show almost entirely milky 😊

Hoping I could ask you a novice question...I understand that grows utilizing coco are somewhere between straight hydro and soil, albeit closer to hydro...my question is would one use the same relative nutrient strength for coco that would be used for DWC? I use coco and I think I’m under feeding, but I didn’t want to mimic a feed schedule for DWC if it is not advised for a coco based medium. Thanks. Your ladies are looking absolutely stellar BTW!

@The8thChevron, I agree, if you can swing it don’t skimp on equip. I had a cheaper pH meter that crapped out after a few months and a major pH issue so I invested in a blue lab one. I like this brand, they are rugged, so I’ll pick up a blue lab EC meter. I’ve decided to re-vamp my nute schedule and it’s an amalgamation of several I’ve researched in the grow diary community. I’ll tweak as needed with the help of monitoring EC. My grows haven’t been terrible, but I really want to up my game. Really appreciate your time with this, thanks a ton!
The8thChevron
The8thChevron
@Fordsie, don't go cheap on your EC meter! I made this mistake my first time around. Apera or Blue Lab is what you want. The cheap ones will still last you an entire grow most likely though!
