So I'm a new gardener and have brought up a feminised bubblegum from weedseedsexpress, she is under a "600w led" with a cfl thrown in for good measure, she is 68 days since flip. I have tried to scrogg after a bit of research and this is what I have. Any hints for next one would be great as I know I've made a few mistakes on the way. I would also appreciate any idea on when she should be cropped as new to tricome watching. She is in canna mix and is now on just water. Sorry for bad pic any tips on getting a better one also would help. I have a thick skin so don't hold back want truth to improve

It’s really hard to tell anything with that lighting.

The only tip I’ve got for you is if you want to know how to train a scrog then have a look at my thread.

My first whole room SCRoG

Hey everyone. I guess a little late to the party with a thread for this one! Lol. I figured it may be nice for some to see the progression of a SCRoG since around the 26th April 2021 The pics begin after i have topped and then cloned one of the tops. some statistics of the grow so far. to...

rollitup.org

If you want answers in when your buds are ripe then normal light pictures would help of the buds. Not trichomes pics as most knowledgable growers can tell without looking at Trichs.

that’s a bit better.

if you want to know if your buds are done though I’m going to need to see the buds closer to the camera.

Like this kind of pic of closer and in focus please.

Thegirlsdad · Jun 27, 2021

How about this, sorry not great with camera thanks for help

Nearly done about 2 weeks I would say all the hairs need to fold down but I don't see any white hair which us good not sure that's a true 600w light mate otherwise I think they would be bigger but the buds look nice and crystally if you can afford for next grow maybe look into a new light most of the better ones use mainly white light with a few reds thrown in but the power consumption between your blurple light and the cfl and a new light would probably be around the same they do look well grown though even at this late stage the leaves still look mainly healthy should see some of my leaves lol

Fully agree with this statement although I would say give it 1 week and ask again with similar pictures of the buds @Thegirlsdad you’re almost there patience is the key now.

Thanks for this folks really appreciate the feed back. I am looking for a better light now I didn't want to spend a lot on my first as I wanted to ensure I could do it well, been looking for new one so any suggestions gratefully received, my space is 4 x 4 ft. She is on day 70 of 12/12 so from what I've read she's technically 56 of flower does that sound about right?
Also any tips for best way to crop her I was gonna chop as one but read somewhere can chop by branches, any thoughts?

I have a Mars Hydro ts3000 which is great for a 4×4 depends on your budget though personally if I had the money I would buy Migro array 8 but that's a £700 light you can get a.mars for less than half that these are under the 3000 now and it's my first grow so even a novice can grow big buds under this thing

Jules1976 · Jun 27, 2021

Watch the Migro YouTube channel he tests lights has a lit of advice on all kinds of lights and he is honest

Thegirlsdad · Jun 27, 2021

Some nice looking buds there, can see difference your light makes compared with mine, I have lots of nugs but no main cola type so will defo treat myself for next try, will check out YouTube later and see what my money will buy

Hi folks can you help again, I've just been to check my girl and she has thrown a new load of white pistils out? Is this normal?
Also there seems to be a little of what I can only describe as white fluff, please help getting worried now she's is 74days since 12/12 don't want to lose her now thanks in advance on second pic near leaf at bottom

Jules1976 · Jul 1, 2021

If the inside of the bud looks slightly brown it's bud rot mate I've had it too cos of the conditions lately if it is you have to remove any buds the have rot very carefully so as not to spread the spores

FidelCa$hflow · Jul 1, 2021

Bud rot or spider mites maybe. They make webs like that… they just love buds

Thegirlsdad · Jul 1, 2021

Nooo so if I remove the buds is there anything natural to prevent further growth or is it worth chopping now, or read something about spraying with apple cider vinegar to stop it, sorry for daft questions

Not sure I you can spray this far into flower your humidity and air flow must be wrong if you can get rid of the ones with rot without spreading the spores it might be okay I lost about a 3rd of my crop but I seem to have stopped it spreading so it is possible I got rid of the infected buds by putting a plastic bag over them then chopping them I increased air flow (bought another clip on fan) then wiped everything down with water and vinegar fingers crossed it hasn't come back hopefully you can salvage something

I'm happy to crop tbh to save what I can as only got the one atm as its first time, would it be worth cutting losses now as got a dozen with it on. The buds are still fine, nice and green

Don't starve your plant at the end.

If you're showing mold on your buds ouch. If it were my grow I'd chop and throw it away. You should not smoke that.

Thegirlsdad · Jul 1, 2021

Just been and took these off plant but bud looks healthy? Smell is awesome, there must be something I can do, thought budrot was grey or brown?
