So not sure if this is an option for you but I use 100% distilled water. Comes it at a strait 7, you can always add a little PH down to it to get yourself in the mid-6 range. another option is augment your soil with spagnum peat moss. I went 25% moss in this soil mix and ended up at 6.3-6.5...

Hey all - so below you’ll see my final veg update - switch to 12/12 is official. Final measurements for plant 1, Wedding Cake (7 weeks, 4 days from breaking ground): 18” wide x 33” long x 13” tall. Trunk measurement 1” diameter. Final measurements for plant 2, Super Silver Haze (6 weeks, 4...

So after spending a ton of time trying to understand the global LED providers, their lights, and recent research, I think for a 3x3 tent, that light you mentioned (SQ300W Pro) is actually a pretty amazing light. The substantial commitment to far red is actually really important. While I think...

W Whats the assembled dimensions?

Dude - that light looks amazing. Not super efficient from what I’m reading but given I’m looking for a light to hang 12” (or less) I’d be able to keep it at 50% power and still cover my whole tent pretty evenly. Should also help with heat. Looks like the coupon is still active.

I’m honestly a little nervous to attempt my own build but… I do think it’s a good idea. I’m not an experienced with wiring but I am a generally very handy person. Is there an idiots guide to it?

Well - by that measure I’m only at 5 and 6 week vegs respectively. I’ve also got the issue that I’m likely to produce far more than I need. Planning to just basically give it away. That said, for me it’s really just the challenge of producing the most awesome plant I can. Some day I’d like to...

This makes sense - depending on how this goes - I may upgrade to a 5x5x80

For reference - I’m 7 weeks from the moment the thing broke through the soil.

This was exactly my logic (though sounds flawed). I was too scared to totally scrap soil given this was my first grow. Obviously too late now. But hey, no where to go but up!

Sooo moral to the story is - I should flip them now?

Not just coco - it’s 25% coco, 50% soil, 15% worm castings, and 10% perlite.

Hmmm should I not let them go vertical at all before flipping? I was just figuring on 2.5x height change. (So 12 = 30, 20=50 etc)

Honestly - it’s gone great so far. Posted the picture above. What exactly is the concern with my approach? They look healthy, have had no issues and they’re continuing to grow rapidly.

Nope - first time :)

You fill a 3x3 in 3 weeks with only 2 plants?? Mine didn’t even leave seedling phase for 10 days and by week 3 were only about 5 or 6 nodes.

Well - it’s been working for me so far. My veg length doesn’t really matter in that it’ll be whatever length it takes to have a 36x18x20 pre-flower plant.

Yeah I agree height is a major concern of mine as well. That’s why I’m keeping them down to sub 12” from the soil. The last step before flipping for me will be to let them go vertical a little bit. My target is 20 inches in height when I flip. (So 40-50 inches at maturity) final measurements in...

this was 4 days ago on the larger plant. I just did an aggressive and perhaps final LST on it yesterday to spread it out further and reduce the width and more evenly spread the branches. the net of the LST was another few inches of width and reduced the height another few inches. It was at 10...

So I’ve read through a ton of posts here which seem to suggest targeting 6/7 week veg times. That said, I’ve also watched a bunch of YouTube videos and read more scholarly papers than I’d prefer to admit. Im currently in week 7 of my veg and I think I’m taking it to either 9 or 10 weeks. My...
