Scrog on LED

[Esteban Soto]

Hi guys I have these 4 plants. 2 of them are headband and 2 are blue dream.
Im running two apollo 6 on a 80x80cmx1,60cm(height). Fertilizing with advanced nutrients (connoisseur grow and b52).
My question is: should I switch to flower already or wait for the screen to be filled completely?
Appreciate your help, thanks!

The headband and blue dream have Same bloom time!?

[littlejacob]

Is it your first grow?

Headband can get stretchy so I'd say flower now but the other is mostly sativa so...

HB is listed as 9-10 weeks but always finished in under 9 for me.

They're both ready in 9 to 10 weeks.

what would yo recommend? I put some wood on the floor and on top of it the pot so It would reach the screen. That's why they're kinda leveled (I forgot to mention).

I would probably give it a couple more days and then flip, maybe take a look at selective pruning around week 2 of flower if it needs it. HB can keep stretching up to week 4 so week 3 you may want to tie some branches down depending on how it looks. I'm no expert on training, I just know how HB is.

This is how they're looking. I'm thinking last grow watering on tuesday and flipping on thursday with the first bloom nutrients in the water. What do you think?

 

[Rahz]

Looks good. I think you could flip any time depending on how big you want them.

 

[Rahz]

Yield depends on a lot of things. Plants are looking healthy and canopy is staying even. I generally use a basic 3 part formula, not big on supplements.

I want to get the biggest yield as possible I'm not worried about getting them asap or anything. ''good things take time'' How much yield could you estimate? I'm going to use connoisseur bloom ,bud candy, big bud, big ignitor and overdrive and I'm planning on getting bud factor x, have you used this last one?

Hola Esteban , su jardín se ve muy bien .
I think you have done really well with your set up. The hard work and care you have put into the grow will pay dividends I am sure.
Please keep us posted on your grow.
Wishing you a bumper harvest.

Cheers,
Will

Quantity and quality have nothing to do with nutes...you could have 20 different bottle and get 0.2gpw or 3 and get more than gpw it depend on grower skills and light efficiency (majority of old growers keep it simple...roots/grow/bloom/boost!)
Personally I stopped chemical nutes 5years ago and liquid organic since few month...now I add amendments to my soil and water with tap water(48h in jar!)only!
It is very bad for health to smoke chemical weed!
And I am pretty sure that F..k..g Monsanto bought GHE!!! Wtf?
Boycott ghe!
To give you an idea of your final weight you should give us the real w of your pannels...
Have a great day ★

Hello. Seems really nice! I know most do stuff differently, but I would recommend that you dont start using flower nutes when switching to 12/12. Wait till they are starting to truly pop out pistils and slowly stopping to stretch. That is just what works the best for me, and I think it makes sense, but each to his own. Good luck

In my past grow I worked with the same nutrients. It was two lemon OG and chocolate from DNA, I downloaded their nutrients schedule and followed it up as it said. And according to them it says I should start using some nutrients right away, because they're used in pre flower stage. Some of them as you say could wait 2 weeks or some, as Bud candy, but the bug ignitor has to be used right away, in fact you only have to use it the first 2 weeks of pre flowers.

I forgot to mention they're each 270w. It says when I bought them each equals 450w of HPS, but you know I don't always trust that.

 

[Esteban Soto]

This is how they're looking today. And today was their last grow nutrients watering. Thursday I'm flipping and watering with bloom nutrients.

Bonjour
Most of us use grow nutrients during stretch...plants need lots of N during this period!
270w from the wall?...so 540w of diodes...do you know which brand/bin?
If it was cxa/b or vero I will said more than gpw...but I don't know what they use in your
What I am sure with this kind of lights is that you can control stretching very well because purple generally "crush"the plants...short internode...if you want longer plant you have to put the panels farther...
