It may help to wrap it in plastic but that didnt seem to stop rootriot plugs attempting to air layer from drying out in 7 days. Plastic pots in veg dried out in 12 hours so it still will dry but I cant afford the problems I got in plastic pots. The one of three tents that have the porto leche and kongs krush are still fine at 6x a day fed.

Just switched my 2nd of 3 tents to 8x a day and now my 3x3 is 12x a freakin day out of a 5 gallon bucket each tent. Hopefully I can at least have it last overnight its just the last couple wks flower before it starts to take less which I never seen. People say that though. No coincidence its a large clone.

Youd think the fan which yes but my two plants are fine with 6x right now with a fan on 24/7 but the 3/3 is on a timer but still needs 10-12x a day. The plant is pretty big with a tight air pruned root system. Its thirsty as hell clearly which isnt helping. Might have to play around with ec maybe do 1.2 like one said but I had bad results dropping ec before.

If I wasnt in a such fragil health state in the 3/3.. Just dont want to risk it. It should make it over night just daily rez swap. I just perpetuate these buckets with new buckets plump the pump and lid in new bucket. Takes 5 mins to make. The ph can go up fast otherwise idk about 6.5 ph. Hoping I can get the ph without adjusting it like now at 1.7ec.

I think it would make it in range until about 1.4 then will have to adjust ph. That does kinda make it a pain but its a skill that can get faster like my ec dialing skills have been because of this.

Idk maybe Im wrong, 2 hrs later its almost just as dry but notably wetter. Barely leaving water left behind to the touch but feels wet. The others dont do that though they stay soppy wet upon adding an extra feed. I think it still needs 12x a day fed its a tiny rootball air pruned. Crap this is annoying.

bongsmilie:hump::leaf:

Ive been here for a couple years plus and just now figured out how to do that. I thought it was a secret you had to be here long enough to know how to do with plain text somehow. Im high lol. Almost time to chop my christmas tree. Merry xmas. Happy growing.

Aw ye its starting to click. Runoff on a couple is ok because 8x a day fed but my other couple have .4 ec higher runoff. I referenced first few pages of thread and helped myself lol. Thanks for yalls help and creating a nice thread that has all kinda of details.

Theyre 6x a day so need to do 8x a day and if that dont work I think 12x a day is a bit obnoxious it may darken them too much. Maybe start by dropping one ec point at a time and watching runoff. The runoff of the 12x a day clone is ok. Its looking ok too. 12 more days on it.

Could go 10 wks but needs to be perfect which its not. By a lot of ppls standard mostly red hairs is good enough and is already there. I know the hash will be just fine.

Ec runoff I was saying earlier had now dropped 2.1 to 1.87ec. so its already working. Man dropping ec is scary never done it but the one time I did it went bad. I should play with one clone see what happens if I drop ec. I was under impression if the runoff checks out theres no need to.

Also that they get sickly in veg if I drop ec so how does it make sense to drop it then or at flower? I know Im dialing in dryback ok because these high ec clones dont dry back. Wet to the touch. If its chaulky no water residue on hands its dry. Well lets see how this shit show goes.

Il say though you only can change like one thing if something goes wrong. You can only withdraw so much at the bank of mistakes before its just too hard to tell whats going on and what it needs.

Dehuey hose got gunked up should of let it sit above water in drain tub. It gets gunky so it backed up and shut off for a few hours. I was wondering why temps suddenly dropping a little. Dehuey makes most of my heat. Lights are very dim right now especially 3x3 as I dont want push it hard all stressed.

Shit I feel like grazing all the tops that are done anyway. I know botrytis loves rh spikes and it got 58rh but the box fan on it was on. Its a dense enough clone Im about done with this pheno if I cant get it to grow like it used to. My call I guess and just gonna graze them.

Thing is it had to of worked its way up there and sat like that for an hr maybe 2. Progressive chopping its a thing and might do it.

Screwwwwwww that loll. I could of sworn my dehuey finally died I couldnt believe it even though it simply said bucket full. I need another inkbird to alarm me next time. Mold ptsd man.. Its got those pockets with a spore here and there and things like this sets it off.

Its cash money until I see mold and this piggy bank is getting smashed. Im choppin tops :hump:

I could wait it out idk. If Im not gonna give it more than 10 days than whats the difference. The pm had a shot to come back too so Id just have some tops left and everything gone again. Itll probably be ok. Dont do that lol that was dumb.

Choppin at 7.5 wks is just idk people doubt 9 is enough but it is if everythings right 10 wks there shouldnt be white hairs. If somethings majorly wrong it just wont finish itll take 14 wks and probably still white hairs its stress at that point.

Also a plant thats bound to die its got bugs in roots. Its a pattern I have to figure out its appearently harder than ridding mold. So long dehuey dont shut off. Theres really no mold in it but after disecting a clone full of mold its tough. Too familiar.

Idk where to ask this il just ask here. If seeds were notibly spotted being formed in like week 4 flower, how long should it need to grow into a viable seed? I was going to chop at 9-10wks is that enough if the seed is nice and brown? I want to grow out an accidental cross.

Some of the seeds might be done faster than the others, but probably best to wait as long as possible. I guess if you have to harvest early.. suppose you could leave a few of the seeded budsites on the plant carcass, and keep the pot around in another space for a few weeks longer. Or, just toss some of the branches you cut off during harvest in a vase of water, and keep them alive a few extra weeks until the seeds are fully mature?

I think in 3 weeks il have plenty of viables. It said somewhere if theyre popping out the calyx its as ripe as can be. Some of them look ready to germinate already. I think it will work if I just chop as planned.I forget what I read on how long they need to form but hell if it looks any riper than now I wouldnt doubt its ready.

Oof. I had to budge and chop it got to me. Was doubting theres no botritys which nope theres none. I chopped all the fattest tops disected them to nugs not a trace of fuzz. You really dont know until you check so Il remember that next time. The colas arent dripping moist so that had to of screwed me last time.

No pm its not really what did it but it didnt help. Now I get to whats really killing me besides potential budrot. The bugs. I didnt get rid of the gnats and possibly aphids. If you been following my progress its been screwing me half the time. Sudden dead colas at week 9-10.

If it does that its root rot possibly pythium you wouldnt be wrong to assume that and toss the whole plant. Well this is a good ass harvest like 6 oz only 2 more to go. Hand trim which adds to the pressure as if I find one spot its all trash. I dont feel like explaining why. One piece of fuzz can produce 60k spores long story short.

Its best to get to root cause. This really a test run for pm and unintentionally botritus. Im so done with growing clusters its too nerve racking, Rest of my plants should be good aside from potential pythium after week 8 start of week 9 or 10. Il be happy to turn to an oz of flower rosin its ready enough trust me.

Sometimes got to just make your own calls. Im happy with it and thats what matters.

It just makes sense, you cant overwater coco and had 8x a day fed rootball all white. All white in veg. Switch to flower theres gnats and rootrot by week 5 as I tossed the pm plants but peeked at rootball for science. Glad I did even though I felt like quit growing. Cant though its real fun.

Makes sense, they berrow into root, the root cant function so it just holds water and rots. Idk thats my speculatuon. I should harvest the rest asap and quarentene the clone I just flipped so my new clones that have no bug in sight get another chance. Theyre panty hosed up.

It dont really work 100% though I was swearing they still get in through the inevidably stretched panty. I think I can just seal fabric pot shut instead next time. Maybe it didnt need 12x a day but it did get better and was dry to touch.

My two clones in other tent smaller rootballs different strains though thats a thinker.. 8x a day and was fine at 6x if I recall right but high runoff ec so I upped and fixed at 8x a day. But was wet to the touch so I was basing frequency off that.

If thats not right then why are the leaves in rest of plants ok?

Really its minor its not standard but from what I read dying colas isnt even to be tossed anymore than the rest of plant. Pythium effects the roots and in advanced cases will move up into the stem and fruits. I try to harvest before that as early as possible.

People be harvesting moldy weed I was going to be one of them but just grossed me out. Just common sense took over something aint right. I wouldnt share this with anyone but I been consuming some of it after a certain point. Its a issue to be figured out asap.

When it is Il be golden Im pretty sure its the bugs. Idk how one could consume weed with spores or actual mold in it not feeling wrong about it. This is already enough to make me barely want it but as far as I know I should be good. I cant wait to move on to white rootballs again though.

I tossed 32oz and just did a test press made 3gs rosin it was tempting to dab Im a hash addict but nope. Trash.
