Very nice strain selection you are growing! The enemy of the state sound interesting. What do you think of the megacrop? I have a sample I haven’t used yet.
You choice of equipment and toys used to aid the environment will get a lot of attention… I am an outdoor living soil guy dabbling with indoor (at the moment)… so far absolutely no interest in hydro of any form…
I was using $1000 worth of AN every six months. Six months of megacrop with their sweet candy and bud explosion additives was under $50 with my 35% sponsor discount. I still use my House and Garden Roots Excelurator (as I was with the AN). I’m happy with the results so far everything seems to grow as well as ever for a small fraction of the cost.
Lol Hydro requires a lot more attention but when she is dialed in WOW!
What up X here first time grower have had issues but made it thru my first cloning attempt I just failed but was failed from the start forgot to clone before I switched to bloom oh well always next time
Having a hard time with humidity got a new exhaust which should help
4x4x70 tent
X2 1500watt led lights
Nothing but Advanced Nutrients they r the best in personal opinion micro, grow, bloom, b52, voodoo, piranha, tarantula, big hud, bud candy, and over drive
5 babies 2 strains
Welcome to Growers Network @xgx13xgx We are glad you are here.
If you need anything just let us know. You can tag someone by putting the “@” symbol in front of their name like @xgx13xgx
You can take clones during the first few weeks. They will grow pretty wonky when you re-veg them, and they will take a little longer to get back to veg, but some people like monster clones because they tend to produce a few extra branches here and there.
Just don’t do what I did and put them in flower as soon as they root. They need a little time once they root to properly re-veg, or they won’t stretch at all once you put them under 12/12. That could prove useful if you were going to do like a 60 plant SOG grow, though… hmm.
Lol I tried to clone 3 days into the bloom and for almost a week they just looked really droopy so next run will make sure to do it before I’m growing in promix with 25% xtra perlite again this is my first ever grow but trial.and error lol
The big issue I’m worried about is humidity have a dehumidifier in the room not the tent set at 50%rh the tent is still around 58 to 60 going to add the new exhaust and I even bout a 3x3 flood table watering and using a shop vac to get all the water out of the table to try and cut the humidity have 2 6 inch oscillating fans and a 6x16 carbon filter with a 220 cm fan to exhaust the new exhaust is a 440 so that should help idk lol going to be here a bit for advice especially when harvest time comes
Question though I bought some seeds from GYO it says on the strain info 70 days to flower they are fem not auto does that mean 70 days from the time I switch to bloom or 70 days from the time they sprout from the seed? I know its appox and not exactly 70 but where does the 70 days start?
@xgx13xgx yes It would be 70 days from bloom. and you’re right most of those times is an estimate could go a little longer
Damn so I have another 2 months to harvest I thought i could pull 4 harvest a year so 3 months per cycle have to rework the math now lol or start seeding again and using my other tent like now
