When do we stop Boosting Root growth
1Right_Anglestarted grow question 4y ago
Root growth and root ball development are critical parts of any Grow ! Understood
But WHEN do we taper or remove it from the routine?
Heading into the last weeks of flower each time I find myself asking about it…
So hear goes…..
When do we stop adding root boosters?

You give it the entire grow, then stop for ripening and flush. So you could stop anywhere from 4-2 weeks before harvest. Really it's up to you.

Well I stop mine in the second or third week of flowering, but I guess it also depends on the brand and individual choices. For example I use Canna, especially because you can use it as a foliar spray as well. Read carefully the label instructions first and then make a senseful decision 🙏.

I usually stop 2-3 weeks before the estimated harvest time.

How to get feminised plants to flowerHow do I get my feminised plants to start flowering outside / greenhouse?
I'm a bit of a newbie to growing my own and thought I'd brought Autoflowers but I've realised that they're not. They are very big now (White Widow) and not started flowering like my others did.

Problem: Soil gets dry and Eazy Plug keeps lifting which could cause root damage.Is there anyway I can avoid this besides keeping it wet and pressed down until stronger roots form? I'm worried about the root structure and stress if I have to keep pressing it into the soil...Week 2

Mykorrhiza ohne umtopfen?ich benutze BioTabs Mycotrex und habe deswegen meine Autoflower zu erst im kleinen Topf gesetzt, um sie dann beim Umtopfen in den finalen Behälter mit diesen Pilzen zu impfen. Hierzu werden 5g des Pulvers mit in das Pflanzloch gegeben. Gibt es für Autoflower eine bessere Methode?

Tap root surfacedHello
I have zero experience in growing cannabis. I germinated 2 autoflowers and both popped but, one tap root grew upwards. As soon as I noticed it I reposition it as carefully and easily as possible.Being an autoflower does it even have a chance. Posted pic on diary.

Seedling with mold in drainage Holes :(Hello,
Im starting my seedlings and just noticed some white fuzzy mold on the drainage holes of the pot (probably because overwattering). The plants look fine but they're still very young (just one set of good leaves). Should I worry? What can I do to avoid loosing my plants?Roots. Other

White bumps/lesions on stem base Day 19 veg auto, is it an issue?White spots/lesions growing on stem base but not on leaves or anywhere else?
This started within the last 1-3 days.
The stem "splitting" on the skin was present since it was sagging and bounced back fine.
Worried this is mold/infection from soil. Packed more soil onto the top (!)

Why should the tap root grow for some days before potting?Not a problem, but I'm eager to learn: Most tutorials recommend to let the tap root grow to about 2.5 cm before potting. Does anybody have a rationale for that? To me this sounds counter-productive (light protection for roots, correct orientation of seed). What am I missing?Week 1

mold problem in the clay beadsHello, I think I have a mold problem in the clay beads. This morning I saw white spots. Can you tell me if they are deposits or mold? If it is mold what should I do? The roots underneath are still in good condition.
Thanks you buddys.

Liquid oxygenWould you all use this in your water when trying to give oxygen to the roots? I’m noticing some really dense, not drying up that quickly soil so it’s making me think that they can’t breath. I don’t know, just making sure every part of the plant is happy & healthy.
