I think we all have some airy bud the first try. Mine was mainly due to using makeshift cfl lights to flower on a budget. Once I moved in some better intense led the next flowers were much tighter. Make your light choice your biggest expenditure. Also I notice buds really tighten up and get...
Same problem here but my humidity can reach low 70’s! All you can do is run your dehumidifier day and night and dump water. I just invested in a spiderfarmer tent dehumidifier to end this problem once and for all. I need a solid 50% humidity in flower. However I have not got mold or bud rot in...
I do fight high humidity in my lung room and tent. I’ve gotten as high as 70 percent and usually run at 60-65. My dehumidifier is on back order. I agree the carbon filter should be more effective when I can get humidity down to a steady 50%.
I haven’t had any smell since I changed the carbon. Pretty easy operation. I noticed I hadn’t foil taped my connection between fan and filter, so some unscrubbed air may have been exhausted. Definitley moving up to a 6” which I should really be running in a 3x3 instead of a 4” working harder.
Came into a stinky home today only a week into flower. I used this 4” carbon filter for the last grow and past 2 months vegging of this one. So about 6 months old total. I know it’s gonna get way more pungent! I got a refillable filter this time, so I dumped and refilled with new carbon. Anyone...
Yes top dress, ocean forest will be spent of nutrients after a month to a month and a half of good vegging. I use Gia Green grow and bloom top dressed in after 1 to 1 and 1/2 months at least in happy frog/perlite (a bit less hot than ocean forest). I just top dress a tablespoon per gallon of pot...
Even using premium genetics, and always feminized, every once in a blue moon I will crush a bud to smoke and get a seed! Question is, if I grow it will I get a female plant of the same genetic?
I have 3 ac infinity oscillating fans in my 3X3 tent. one very low pushing the intake air across the top of the fabric pots and through the plants. The Second is above the tops, gently blowing downward into the tops. The third is blowing upward through the light and into the ballast, circulating...
I hope I have better luck. I struggle with high humidity and need things down to 55-50 through flower. I usually have to dehumidify a huge lung room constantly which is a huge chore to get in the low 50s. Thanks for letting me know.
I have always wet trimmed. Then I lay them on shelves in a drying rack for about 10-12 days, jar, and begin burping. I finally broke down and got a nice bowl trimmer and was really surprised how nicely the flowers shaped up, and how fast it works! Trimming has gone from a pain to a joy. 4 large...
I usually come in every week and break up the top 2-4 inches of soil with fingers before watering in. Also a great time to top dress in some castings now and then. As plant gets bigger youll start to disturb very top of root system doing this, so be gentle, girls don’t seem to mind and continue...
Interesting you should ask. So I have always done soil, most forgiving to learn lol. So I went through the soil with synthetic vs. organic nutrients gamut. Decided to start synthetic and gradually moved to organic. Harvest quality got better and better. Tried hydro 3 times as an inbetween...
Thank you. I am going for a full 3X3. I’d usually run 4 five gallons but this time I have 2 five gallon and 2 seven gallon. Last soil grow before going full coco. Nutrients are organic and very sparingly at that. I supplement with a bit of calmag, silica, and worm castings. I use Gaia green as...
Good advice! the thing about the EVO light is the dimmer is in 10% full increments. 1-10 in intensity. I liked the Soiderfarmer better for a rotary dimmer where I could hit inbetween increments. Here is my current canopy (only second time using a Trellice). Plants are vegged 2 months. So Im...
