Yes they will stop drinking a ton of water in the last few days. I didnt catch you were growing with coco. I did a large coco grow a few grows back, turnout was great. It was just a pain in the ass moving plants to bathtub every water so i can perform the desired 30 percent flush with every water. they say coco needs this. not sure about the nutes staying in coco.
I'm in week 5. I haven't flushed at all since they have been in the coco. I hand water every other day and just mix 5 gallons at a time.
You arent watering with 20-30 percent runoff in coco? You may be building salt deposits within your coco. Man that hero og will be some bomb. ive heard good things about grape ape too! stinky strain.
Yeah 1st indoor grow. Yeah 1st coco grow also. I use drip clean to counter the salt build up. When you say 20-30% runoff what do you mean?
say you water your plants to full capacity. use an extra 20-30 percent of that amount devoted to runoff. so if your plants take 1 gallon of water before any runoff shows...make sure you give one gallon plus another quarter gallon for runoff- thus removing buildup salts from coco. drip clean may be doing the trick...didnt use a product like that when i was growing in coco.
Thanks for stopping by Brock... Definately long journey to get them to where they are at now! One of the TW's died cuz of my cat trying to munch leaves tipped over the rubbermaid container causing it to break. The 2nd one was doing alright but decided I didnt really have room for it so I gave it to a friend and he left in his truck to bake for 3 days...Idiot! Clones I got were pretty healthy... new ones I just got ehh we'll have to see. I have a lot more knowledge so hopefully I can do a better job taking care of them in veg.
are they seeds? or clones? i only shoot for high humidity when the clones are 1-4 days old. i slowly cut back on the humidity over a period of 2-3 weeks. if they are rooted they do not need these covers.
Fully Rooted Clones. I'm assuming around 10-14 days old but not exactly sure? Humidity has been really low here in So Cal last few days. Pretty much sucked all the water out of the 1" cubes they were in last night. They weren't looking so good when I picked them up and were looking even worse this morning is why I added the covers until the humidity increases a little or until they show some more growth.
Oh so you transplanted them and then covered them? The cover should be ok for a while but it should have a few holes for air exchange. maybe 3-5 1/4" sized holes? a few at top and bottom. when i clone i usually only cover for the first few days to maintain humidity, i then remove the cover- they do just fine. I am in a bubble cloner tho...the water tray below keeps humidity at the right range without humidome.
Thanks Aev for the info and following along. What do mean by flowering strain?
Of the plants that are flowering, which strain do you like the best?
That's a good question! I'm not a day time smoker so I tend to like the couchlock of the indicas better than the head highs of the sativas. So I would lean more towards the Bubblicious at this point. But I really do like the Blue Dream...figured I would take it to 10 weeks and let the trichs cloud up maybe even get amberish which give a more indica feel to it. But because of the yield I might try and make some butter, cookies, brownies with it and see how it goes. Based on taste I like both equally. If I have decided based on ease of growth, yield, taste, etc. I would lean towards the Blue Dream. I could have done a better job LSTing the Bubblicious so it would have more yield but...it's hard to say. It's like picking which of your kids you like better! LOL I can't wait to see how the Hero OG turns out cuz I really like OG Kush and the Pre '98 Bubba Kush. Cross with Herijuana with both of those should be a knockout!
