yeah I was surprised too! I’ve never seen fan leaves that big either haha




nice! Good luck man, she’ll be alright

I seem to have issues with seedlings. Hydroton leaks light but uncovered the light keeps the rapid rooter damp if I cover it it keeps it to wet. It's like choose between damping off or root rot. Idk I just can't get this part down lol

hmm interesting. Just finished putting together a time lapse of the first half of my grow. Looks like I started out uncovered and then switched to covered shortly after:

Thanks. I used a Wyze cam, it’s got a built in time lapse feature. You can set how often u want it to take photos and at the end of the time frame it will put them all together into a video.

we just passed a bill for recreational use and possession where I am. Will prob take another year or so before organized businesses begin to open.

Hows everything going? Got pompoms yet?

Definitely seeing the beginnings of bud sites, but no pom poms yet. I’m 2 full weeks into flower and starting to get concerned about tent height. I don’t think these ladies will make it all the way to full maturity without getting super close to the top of the tent, so need to figure out what to do.

The outdoor plant, Debbie, took a turn for the better And is starting to fill out.

hows your seedling doing?

Debbie ain't no downer now huh nice! Yeah you are gonna have some problems looks like the light is already up as high as it can go. How tall is that tent? Only thing I know is super crop and tie them down cause I learned if you don't tie down after they stand right back up. You have to figure it out tho you didn't do all this for them to not finish. Seedling is doing good. Didn't think roots would be close to bottom of net pot yet so was happy to see one little root poking out the bottom

I have some unfortunate news.. both of my northern lights plants appear to be male. I guess buying feminized seeds is prob worth the extra $$.. so annoying..

I have one other plant in the tent which is feminized so hopefully that actually turns out to be female. Prob will need to cut the others down ASAP before they start producing pollen. On the plus side I guess my height issue is less of a problem now since that third plant was a decent amount shorter.

Awww man! That sucks big balls dude! Yes take them and burn them or as far away from your house as possible. What about Debbie? Keep them pollen sacs away from her also

yeah def sucks man.. well I chopped the males out, which was an annoying process since they were all sharing the same reservoir. Had to separate the root systems and take 2 scrog off. Figured it was a good opportunity to clean and refill the res too.

Anyway the remaining plant (along with Debbie) are feminized seeds so they should be female. The one in the tent is recovering from the separation trauma. I put her back in the scrog nets and she already looks better than yesterday.

Will never bother attempting to grow non-feminized seeds again.

Yeah its not something I want to have to do either. Someone gave me a shot ton of bag seed from the past year and was like it's all good smoke and I tossed them out the window on way home lol. I'm not doing all the work just to have males

I feel for ya. Not only for the males but man it had to have been a pain in the ass to get them out of the rez and the scrog net. I hope the universe repays you for your time and effort with a frosty bountiful harvest.

Nice clean setup you got there!

Appreciate the encouragement. On the plus side it was nice to see that I can actually grow a decently healthy plant with hydro my first time around, even though I had to intentionally kill half of them..lol

Unfortunately the remaining one was never topped unlike the other two that were removed and prob too late to do that now that it’s 2 weeks into flower

i wonder if I should eventually bring Debbie back into the tent when she’s ready to start flower, otherwise she won’t naturally be done until like September/October

If you have room for her or have a huge outside plant

When did you start giving nutes to your seedlings? I can't decide and don't remember when I did with the last ones lol. It was great smoke so don't remember the last 6onths very well lol

Day 25 of flower looking yummy!

Been keeping a grow log. Looks like I added nutrients as soon as I placed them into the DWC system (after roots appeared through the other end of the cube).

started off super weak @174 PPM

I noticed the cotyledons were yellowing so I added some last night (135ppm). Can't wait for another 40ish days to go by lol. How are your 2 doing? Put Debbie in dwc?
