BoredFather
started grow question 6y ago
Some pestils are brown already. Quite surprise for me-it is week 9. Do you think that she is going to be ready for harvest?

answered grow question 6y ago
Don't know where do you see the brown pestils, but on your pics 99% of the pestils are white, chopping now will be a huge waste. Also, trichomes don't seem clear, and no amber at all.

Autopots - switch on, or wait?
I have 2 plants in 15 liter auto pots. They have been in their final pots and being top fed for 2 weeks, which should be long enough to switch on, but I read that I should wait until the leaves are as wide as the pot. What do people think based on the current size?

Moisture Meter YES or NO? (Could harm the roots?)
High! Do you think this moisture meter is useful or it would just harm the roots of the plant when I put it into the soil? I already tried once and it felt like I was killing the plant...

Opinions & experience inquired - Layering diff. substrates - A good or bad idea? Pure living soil seems better so far, might it work better in bigger pots?

Can I uoload pictures directly to the site? My memory is running out and my camera won't take pictures. Need to get creative until I can fix it
This is more a "website specific" ? Fone has no storage and won't allow me to take pictures. Is there a way to upload photos directly to the grow diary app ,without using the memory of phone. Like on FB when you can just take a fresh picture? Just trying to make it till its fixed

Just stunted? Or will I lose whole grow?
5 weeks into flower, 3 to go. Autoflower grown in soil. Kept in outside shed, with 400w HPS and electric heater. Struggling to keep temps up above 10°c. It's not killing it, but perhaps stunting growth. A hardy strain. Will it still convert THC or am I risking losing whole plant?

What stage are my trichromes in? (see diary for photo's)
Pistils are mainly brown, but judging from my photo's I'd say the trichromes are still transparent to maybe slightly milky? The pictures from my phone aren't perfectly sharp though, and it's my first growth as well, so I'm not really sure. Could anyone with a trained eye tell?

Not enough water for this beast in an airpot.
My nlxbb is huge and in a small airpot. I've watered 2 litres everyday the last 3 days. It seems when I wake up the pot is always light no matter how much water I give her. Should I be watering until I see water pouring out the bottom? I usually separate watering by a Cpl hours

What causes hydro Ph fluctuations early in the grow?
What causes dramatic ph fluctuations in hydro conditions so early in the grow, and how can I mitigate it? I have hard water, so I know that’s part of the issue (I tried to install a RO system recently and failed miserably). Other than frequent testing & additives, what can I do?

to cut or not to cut?
some pistils have turned yellow-amber while others are still transparent should I wait or simply resign myself to the fact that I have compromised its growth and therefore it will not improve? 😭💔
