Alpacastarted grow question 6y ago

Not sure whether or not to cut some of the lowest branches from the plant. Doesn't look like they'll make a 50 cm stretch up but I'm not sure. Tips?

Go ahead and cut the lowest branches. They they will amount to nothing and the airflow will improve, reducing the risk of mold. Also less tops mean they will be bigger

Any recommendations for additional nutrients? Never used a Cal-Mag supplement or anything like that.

Yo! Need advice on what could cause a major PH differential between the nutrient solution and the runoff. I'm making my usual 70 litre bucket up and not adding any PH down. Feeding 1.6ec and 6.4 ph the runoff is measuring in at 1.8ec (good). 5.2ph (bad). Why?? Each fed over 20L.

To trim or not to trim this bushy Hindu Kush bi ch What could or should I do regarding trimming at this stage? Removing lower leaves or upper? My concern is that while healthy it is very dense, nodes are tight, and I think this might impact yield. 3ft would be my max height (6ft tent), and I will likely flip wk 7/8. Thank you!

Is peat moss good to use as a replacement for Coco coir or regular potting mix? I plan to add nutrients or amending my own soil if you will, but will peat moss work in a pinch?

My apartment's humidity is 40% - harvested buds completely dried out in under 24 hours. Should I place my next harvest directly into jars to avoid the mistake I made in my first grow? I would appreciate any suggestions (I cannot control the ambient humidity). Thanks!

Hi guys! The problem is, in general, the plant in the growing box has grown so much that from the lamp to the top of 1.5 cm, the temperature there is quite high, will it somehow affect the plant? And how can I fix this if I have 5 weeks and this is main-lining with the main trunk

Question…During drying and curing. With winter I’m using gas for heat, which drops my humidity. Does any one dry less than 7 days before jarring it up? or dry it in paper bags before curing? should I just get a humidifier for when I dry, if so will I have mold ?
