Sturgeon ya my tent is getting hot at 80-90 ....90 is rare but most of my buds are def looking Burt headed. Foxtails and wiley clusters. Plus I believe its critical offspring and critical seems to spike. I got one bud that looks like a Buddha, I can't explain it. Its Yoda or something.

Stretch is all strain dependent.just stay away from pgr s like bushmaster. Heres my last tray of glue. Put in at 12 inches and finished at around 3 ft.

yo sturgeon...when ive been testing for my ph and ppm over this entire time ive been just sticking the meters in the center of table when flood was at its highest...ive read about the need to test the run off in the past cause its different but its just somehow been forgot by me this entire time to check this way...i tested a cube I squeezed and it was 6.0 and the regular flood reading was 5.4 along with 240ppm flood and from squeezed cube it was 342ppm...is this how its should be and should i probably always be taking the run-off readings as my official results and what i should be adjusting to or doing it how ive been all along? was just surprised how higher the levels where from the one run-off cube...p.s. and thanks sturgeon once again for my daily take over of your thread and you being totally cool about it and answering all my noob questions...

I dont ever test my run off. Just my res. 6.0 or yellow in the tube lol. I dont get all scientific and over complicate it. The system is very simple to use and low tech for hydro lol. Dont fix if it aint broke. Every once in a while ill test my ppm or ec but i usually just look at the plants to tell me how im doing .

word sounds good was just making certain...the smart pots i bought are cloth..your weep water out the bottom? that normal?

 

[sturgeongeneral]

Ya sometimes. Just water them slower. Add a little, let it soak and then add more. Takes longer but less mess.

word thanks...i picked up some saucers for them to sit in as well

 

[sturgeongeneral]

Saucers arent really needed. If u water slow, there shouldnt be a lot of runoff

A shot of my gg4 mom before giving up almost 30 cuts.also the flower room a few days in.

 

[Kizane21]

Yo sturg...i have the light tube at 43" above the canopy level...is that where it should be ya think or somewhere else...

 

[sturgeongeneral]

Use your hand to feel for your light height. If its hot on your hand its hot on the plants.

Heres a shot of gg4 at 50 days under a 600

 

[Kizane21]

ok cool thanks...they are going great and fast do i still trim everything except the very to couple stems and leaves...

 

[Kizane21]

went ahead an trimmed them so they looked similar to yours at same stage...they are approx 9" tall now

 

[sturgeongeneral]

They look like they're just about ready. Give them a few more days to recover and id say they're ready to flower. When i strip mine i usually go about halfway up from the bottom

ok sounds good im excited thanks bro...just to double check what would you recommend the humidty level be at right now...im at 57-35% for day and night? whats ideal you think? and also my ppm is at 217 and ive put like 30mL more than i have been putting in to get at that level is that normal..

 

[sturgeongeneral]

Dont over think things man. Lol. Humidity looks fine. Mine bounces around from 40s to 60s. Just make sure you habe plenty of air flow and youll be fine. With what you add are your plants showing signs of deficiency or overfert?? If not then dont worry aboit it.

word yeah i figured about all these things...just cool to have an expert re-assure my ass ya know...appreciate the help homie...no signs of defieciency or overfert at all...its been 3 days since i trimmed, wait like 7 days total till i flip 12/12 flower or so? last question my bad haha

 

[sturgeongeneral]

Its cool. Ya 7 days would be fine. Just the day you flip them mix a new batch of nutes and then do so every 10 day. For the first 2 water changes i usually mix half grow half bloom for the transition eventually cutting out the grow all together.

sweet info thanks...and any of the CalMag or any other supplement? and what should my ppm be around for that?

 

[sturgeongeneral]

Couldnt tell ya a ppm..and ya id probably add 100 ml of cal mag to be safe. Thats the 5ml/gal at 20 gallons.. . I know i did my first change on cookies yesterday and with 150ml of grow and 150 of bloom and 200 ml calmag i was .8- 1.0 range.
