1st Grow 400W MH/HPS Ebb & Flow

[Someguy15]

It probably coincides with your flood cycles. All that water in the tray evaporates, so if you can cut back on waterings I bet you could reduce it some. Only other idea I have for ya is get a dehumidifier that's small enough to go right inside the tent. Hook it up with a drain, seal it up and it should drop your humidity. A good thing to check is your humidity in your house/the room your tent is in. If that's 50% then you'll have a bitch of a time keeping the tent down, especially with good circulation which you should have (exception sealed co2 grows). If your room humidity is ideal (say like 30%) then your problem is just air exchange into/out of your tent most likely.

Oh, and the pineapple express is fing amazing. I have yet to find genetics that top it... but my experience is admittedly limited.

Picking up 3rd tent tomorrow!! So excited. t5 8 bulb light, another ebb and flow and I can soon get this (Pineapple Express) and (Northern Lights X Skunk Medical) growing. The free seeds from attitude look great too. Might plant 3 of them with the next crop.

is the NLXskunk your referring too by Medical Seeds? If so that's the second time we choose the same genetics I also ordered the Pure Afghan Kush from them.

 

[joer1980]

Hey buddy. They were actually from World of Seeds. Probably similar though. Im hoping its good stuff. Afghan Kush sounds good too Let me know how that turns out.

[royboy12]

you order them seeds directly to your house or what??

Yeah, exact same package too My mistake. Unfortunately I won't be germinating them or the afgan until I move this fall. You plan to start some of these your next round?

 

[joer1980]

I order them but I don't grow at the same place.

 

[joer1980]

Yep def next round I'm gonna try pineapple express and NL

Awesome, I already know how amazing the PE will be...but I'll be tuned in to watch the NLxS flower out for sure! Hows your current flower, what week again?

Current is the start of week 5 today. Yield looks like its going to be dissappointing but this grow was mainly used to learn. I guess for my first grow, as long as I get killer smoke out of it, I cant complain.

I started topping my widow plant yesterday. Following someones method from youtube. He tops every single node until a little bit before he sends them to flower. He averages 1lb per plant. Its so sick!! Hope it works out!!
