450 umol max in flowering, how is that possible ? Any idea why I can't have more light ? Thx !This is my 13th grow and I could never have more light or the tips would start to burn (more than 450 umols or 18000 lux). I use biotabs or greenhouse nutrients and my space is cramped (0.36 m2), ventilation is OK, heat is around 25 deg and I use blumats drippers and a scrog

What are the strongest strains with the best taste you ever grew that is still on the market and from which breeder ?So far the strongest one with the best effect I grew is the GMO x Animal cookies from Ripper. Taste a bit like citrus and the high is joyfull. Some were quite strong but not as strong as this GMO

Growth is twisted. Is it because of Fungus gnats ?I have fungus gnats (black flies) for less than a week. Temp 29°c, water Ph was at 7 (now 6.5). I didn't think there were so many flies but look at those twisted leaves on 2 plants ! I've put some Diatomaceous Earth yesterday.

Droopy leaves on several buds on the same plantThe main branch is healthy and big but the others are quite small with droopy leaves and the buds are tiny. They didn't receive much light because they didn't grow much and they look bad. Any idea ? Probably not a light or watering problem.

Does adding extra PK in an organic grow extend curing time ? Thanks !My friend that uses Biotabs nutrient as I do achieved a better taste than I did on our AMS Wedding cake seeds. Tastes a bit like mustard whereas his is tasty even though they were all dried just 2 weeks ago. My leaves were always dark green , Maybe adding PK wasn't necessary ?

Which strategy with auxiliary grow Leds ? 3x20w Leds -Thanks !Helps maturing but I wonder if buds are bigger. I used to put 3 extra lights 20 cm below canopy, leave many large leaves at the top and lollypop 30%. 30% is definitely not enough even with those 20w LEDS (50% is probably better). How do you use extra LEDS ? Where do you put them?

They are too big and I have not so much space remaining, what should I do ?68 cm already and only 25cm of height available (with the actual scrog), I just flipped to 12/12. Should I keep on scrogging or top all the heads ? I don't really know where to top as I removed some of the bigger leaves on one side. Thx !

How much do you feed them extra-PK with Biotabs ?I use Biotabs : Mycotrex, Bactrex, Orgatrex, Startrex with a light mix soil and light water (0.08 to 0.1 ec). Some people told me I shouldn't put much PK 5-8 because they easily burn. How much and how often would you feed them PK ? I use blumats with plain water in 6.5L pots, thx

Mold between the pots and on the soil's surface, should I be worried ?So my pots are very close to one another so they can't breathe enough but my space is quite limited and in veg maybe there was not enough extraction. Now that they are in the flowering room they have a little more space but still too cramped. It's just one or 2 pots out of six

Hydro. If the plant is overfed, can the ec possibly go down when they are given new nutes ?Usually they eat 0.1 ec when I add nute or with a new tank and ph goes up. Then it stabilizes and ph starts to go down till I refeed since I have a small tank. Right now there maybe a nute block but EC still goes down like they are hungry... Hydro with a small tank is confusing..

At what stage do leaves get darker ? This is confusingI overwatered them at the beginning of veg and then I fed them with 0.7 ec nutes max, EC would go up if I gave more. I've had tips burning probably from light too close. I find that leaves are pretty dark but it may be because of the strains. When leaves do get darker in flo ?

Overwatering for days, slow growth5 days ago I installed the root riots in the clay balls, they were 2 weeks old. I irrigated too much and much less since 3 days (once or twice a day, till they dry). They keep on being overwatered when usually at this stage I irrigate every 2 hours. Any idea ? Room is around 19°c

Should I be worried?I'm getting green mold on my root riots because of overwatering, i made the transplantation but I should have waited till the roots got deeper probably, I irrigated too soon. I irrigate now only when it is a bit dry. Is it bad ?

Calmag deficiency or Nutrient lockout caused by Pk excess ?Flo+44. Probably I didn't remove Pk fast enough (left it for more than 19 days, should have left it for 15). So I reduced the nutes from 1.15 to 0.70 now, hoping to avoid the lockout... Thx !

Hydro - Ec Variations - how do you deal with them ? What the hell is going on in my soup ?I added a little nutes (0.1) at night, Ec went down and then up at mid day, with Ph dropping. When do you start worrying about your EC going up / Ph going down ? When EC varies more than 0.1 in 24h ? When Ph drops from 0.4 in 24h ? (here from 6.20 to 5.75 in 24h). THX !

Hydro - Ec stable, Ph dropping - Raise EC instead of lowering it ?I have the feeling that when there's not a lot of nutes, PH drops but it means I have to add EC, not lower it. I noticed this when I fed them with a very low EC. I added more EC and they ate a lot right away. What did you experience ? Has to do with them eating all cal-mag ? THX

Hydro - 3 strains. What consequences after slight veg overfeeding ? Do they look dark ?I've had technical issues on veg that resulted in a slight overfeeding and now they don't want to feed much (tap water 0.4 + 0.3 nutes), 5 days after 12/12. I'm not sure they will accept very much more, even when I'll introduce flo nutes. Will yield be weak ? And quality ? Thx
