Hey Blynx. Everything's looking awesome mate. I just wanted to ask you about distance. What distances have you found to work best for each phase of the grow? I'm asking because I want to avoid lightburn.

Cheers :tiphat:
 
Thanks for starting this thread and a couple others, becuase of some great info I jumped in and got some soil wet and have a nice little grow going...thanks!!

Nice training on her!

Would there be anything wrong with when transplanting putting the rootball/soil right up against one side of new rectangular pot so you could just do as you have done now and train from one side all the way to the other? Beats training from the middle to either side I would think?

I can see its kinda what you have done but just not transplanted right into one side of the new pot

When I plant to this final big tub, I am putting the rootball to the side of the container. Unfortunately the rootball itself takes up space and you have to bury it, so it doesn't end up way at the edge.

I would have to plant the intial clone to to the side of the 3" container, then transplant that to the 6" container and put the stem to the side and then repeat when transplanting to the final large container.

The problem with this is that I would have to put effort into doing it that way for use in the micro cabs and that's more work than I want to put into for the micro cabs. I just grab whatever is ready that looks like it will fit in the cab at the time I want to start a round.

With the training I do, I don't know how much affect it would have if I managed to get the stem a couple inches closer to the edge of the large container.

I would say I am probably moving the lights away further with the LEDs than I had the CFLs.

It depends on the wattage of the bulbs and the strain I'm growing. I probably keep the lights around 6" from the canopy.

I love your training. Looking at the structure on that lady, I bet she could run away quick if you did not stay on top of her. Great job.
