speechless as usual
It might be just about week 2 now since turning them, im never usually keeping exact tabs on dates which is why this journal will come in handy coz its all documented here.good shit..did u just throw em into flower? what up with the lines of wire?
Thanks mate, I cant wait to see some buds on them eitherlooking awesome mblaze...cant wait to see them in a couple of weeks!
Mate, just gotta say all your grows have been really inspiring & your methods & techniques are so simple you make it look easy!!Thanks bro,
Keeping it simple is the best way to grow because growing plants is not suppose to be complicated, it should be fun and enjoyable too!
You mention you are in a state with plant number restrictions so make sure you know the law in your state because some states with plant limitations also have a restriction on the height and/or size of the plant so you can possibly be charged if you have huge plants like the Herer grow.
It is usually a maximum of 16 weeks from the time we get the clones till harvest. They are usually under one 600watt light for the first couple of weeks until light number 2 is turned on. Then as the plants grow bigger and need to be spread further apart light number 3 will be turned on so they each have a light all to themselves. Usually the last week of veg is when the last light is turned on and then finally its time to turn them to 12/12. So basically you could say that the plants let me know when they are wanting/needing more light.
FIMming helps the plant to get more main colas and bud sites. Here is a basic picture that shows where you need to cut:
I dont use the same brand nutes for everything so here is a list of all of them that get used at various stages:
#Nutrifield Premium Blend Coco medium
#Nutrifield Coco A and B
#Monster Grow by Grotek
#Monster Bloom by Grotek
#Budmeister by J&M Holdings
#Liquid Lead
#Pythoff by Flairform
As for the odour control I use a big charcoal filter which you can see in this pic:
yea thats what i was thinking i gotta do that next time..i had to tie up almost all my branches on my 4footers..and next grow ima try FIMing i've heard and seen alot of good shit on FIMingIt might be just about week 2 now since turning them, im never usually keeping exact tabs on dates which is why this journal will come in handy coz its all documented here.
The string serves 2 purposes, 1. it is used to spread the canopy out instead of tying individual branches down and 2. It helps support the the braches once they start to get some weight on them. I have been meaning to take it down coz its getting a bit hard to move in there so im just goin to go with trying them down and then up individually.
Thanks mate, I dont like for things to get too technical and the plants will always let me know if they dont agree with something I am doing.Mate, just gotta say all your grows have been really inspiring & your methods & techniques are so simple you make it look easy!!
Just a question, at what stage of the grow do you apply the FIMming technique? How many do you apply without harming the plant?
Love the progress of your current grow man, looks like another massive yield bro! I reckon 2 elbows a tree! hope u prove me wrong with more, good luck & can't wait to see your progress!
Good luck with it bud, you should be happy with the results from it.yea thats what i was thinking i gotta do that next time..i had to tie up almost all my branches on my 4footers..and next grow ima try FIMing i've heard and seen alot of good shit on FIMing
These are all the nutes I have use at various stages:what kinda nutes u feeding em? and when did u start feeding em nutes
If you are wanting a big canopy then FIMming is the way to go about itlooks like its doing u good
first rule of grow op re-design is HAVE A CAMERA!!!Well today I got rid of the string screen and I spent a few hours tying them all down. I moved them all further apart and re-arranged the lights to suit although I still havnt bothered to put up a shelf up for the ballasts yet lol. Hopefully they have finished most of their growing coz its getting very cramped in that room. I will take some pics tomorrow coz I didnt have the camera with me today so so ill post some up asap.
canopy? does that mean yield? i woulda done it this grow but im a baller on a budget and if i would of done the FIM training then i wouldnt have much room..i got a 600watt with 5 plants so i think i would of had to gotten one more 600watt to FIM all 5 plantsIf you are wanting a big canopy then FIMming is the way to go about it
Yeah I know but im still gettin used to this documenting every stage thing lol.first rule of grow op re-design is HAVE A CAMERA!!!
cant wait to see what you've done with them!
Canopy basically means the the whole top of the plant. Someone else should be able to explain it better than I can if you want to get technical about it.canopy? does that mean yield? i woulda done it this grow but im a baller on a budget and if i would of done the FIM training then i wouldnt have much room..i got a 600watt with 5 plants so i think i would of had to gotten one more 600watt to FIM all 5 plants
