Looking pretty good man. If you do a pk boost just make sure you have time to flush before harvest.

Thanks I was going to try a pk boost in week 5 or 6 of flower then flush from week 7-9
Just wondering if anyone else uses a pk boost at a specific time and what difference might it make?

Cant say for sure because ive never done it but i do know if you're using liquid nutes the plants need the pk boost in flower and not so much nitrogen. Im sure a quick search around here will tell you.

I'l leave the pk boost for a few weeks I think.

Watered every 2 days til 20% run off with 3ml per litre of AN sensi coco bloom, 1ml per litre Cal mag, 1ml per litre b-52

Great white myco once a week.

Ahh shit dont stress it, if your confident then go as you please. My first grow was 15 plants under a 1000W, a lot of things happened during the grow including moving them in the middle of the night in the back of a uhaul, right tin the middle of flower. I ended with 13 and harvested 12 O's of sweet ass GSC.
One thing I've learned since then is think or all the ways you could do it, then just do it the simplest way possible. Its a versatile plant and will produce well if the light and nutes are there, of course keep the temp range even. You'll have yourself something nice here either way and is a great first grow!

Thanks buddy. You had an eventful first grow lol hopefully I can see this one through without too much hassle. My lights on temps are around 23c and lights off temps are around 16-19c and I'm keeping it simple with the nutes but no doubt I'll learn more from this grow than I ever will reading online lol and if I run into any difficulties I'm sure you guys will help me out :)

There is plenty to learn online, the greatest thing its all free, unless you wanna buy books to have. I have a couple from Jorge Cervantes his most recent is the grow encyclopedia or something like that. Its pretty good but basic enough for the average Joe. I've been dabbling into the sciences behind why plants do this and that, and its pretty cool. Some things I'm using on my current grow, and they seem to be quite happy.
Anyways, yes this forum has helped me a lot and been more consistent than several others I have visited. Post up any issues you come across and if you don't get any info quickly hit me up on here I'll help out as much as I can.

Thanks @Nugs1 no doubt ill be needing help at some point lol I've been reading everything I can find for the past year or so before even buying a seed but practice makes perfect and I'll be like yourself and try to improve something every grow. I can see why growing it is addictive lol

Quick update I'm on day 30 of 12/12 so would I be right to assume that they are really only in flower about 22 days? I get confused about this lol and don' want to take them down a week early by accident lol
