lol. She doesn't know what I do, but she kinda told me in a weird way, so maybe she was hinting like "i dont know what it is you're doing in there, but something ain't right".

They've been flowering for like 8.5 weeks now. Only thing is that I accidentally set the timer to 14/10 for two weeks, so I think that slowed the flowering down a little. Seemed like the Blue cheese weren't effected really though.

This is about the best success I've had so far. I've done like 4 soil grows, and this is my second hydro grow. I think just take it slow at first and you will do better. I tried doing a soil sog, and for whatever reason I can't grow in soil... That meant my time was wasted. Didn't yield shit.

I just couldn't figure it out. Hydro is just a lot easier for me it seems.

Yeah that's my problem. I wanna jump right into new things. I haven't even got the flood and drain down and now I'm trying dwc for moms. I got a 6 inch plant going on but it hasn't grown more since I put it into the buckets. All its leaves are green though but drooping...think transplant shock. These will prolly fail too though.
Sorry to hijack your thread but say your res gets to 6.2 and it flooded(or in my case sat in the water) do you neeed to flush the medium with 5.8 water to flush out the 6.2 water that flooded the medium or would simply changing down to 5.6 and flooding would work? Like nutrient lockouts...are they locked out for good or do you just need to change the ph to make the nutes available to your plant?

Nah, it shouldn't hurt it flooding once like that. My ph floats around quite a bit and I never see much problems. You're gonna have some spots here and there. At least I do, and a lot of other better growers plants have brown spots here and there. I don't get too worked up over it.

6.2 as a high for a few floods are ok no need to flush! But plants seem to grow better around 5.6 to 5.8 range

Yeah its probably my inexperience with growing successfully which makes me think everything matters and needs to be exact and to freak out when things go wrong. I've never had success so I think its so unattainable without perfection.its like thinking of ways to get rich and having that millionaire laughing at how over complicated your ideas seem because they know the ways to be rich.
Such a longtime between seeing what will work and what doesn't which stresses me out and makes me bug people on these forums for help and information. Its like I don't wanna wait to see my failures materialize I just wanna know they won't work and do it the right way. These month long trial and errors get me down in the room. Like u said I just feel like a whole ton of time wasted.

Me? I'll take some tonight. Sorry again horned...I just know theres a lot of smart people who follow your thread.

I have zero problems with people asking questions in my thread. I do it to other people all the time. Go look at homebrewer, or HRs threads, I ask them stuff all the time. I don't think people have a problem with supplemental questions. It's the people who come in and ask something like "what ph should I do my hydro?" that is gonna piss people off.

When I sent out on this journey I figured it was going to take about 1 year of full time growing to start to get the hang of it. It has been about one year now, and I'm just now getting the hang of it. My buddy asked me what was taking so long with my grows, and I had to explain to him that even when stuff is going good you're only going to get like 4 crops a year (if you do a normal type grow). It's just gonna take time, and tons of frustration man. I have wanted to give up a lot in the past few months. I'm sure I will second guess myself plenty more times to come as well. Just try to work through it.
Not to mention I have a full time job, so I don't have time to research 100% of my time off.

sucks you had to chop early, still looks like a great harvest. so are you going to give it a 2nd go?

I have some vegging right now, but I believe I will be converting to a more conventional grow. Less plants, but bigger. Maybe less efficient, but more stable imo.

More stable? Did any of your babies die before chopping? Or you harvest all 36?
I'm beginning to think, even once I get moms established, I might try a scrog instead of SOG, or even just FIMing. Even though MJ laws round here are very vague. 1-50 lbs cultivating same penalty. 1-2 years prison no MMS for first time offenders so thats good. But i'd imagine i'd have a better chance at staying out of prison if I had less plants. I don't think LEO will care if I tell them i'm lollipopping them to only get a small amount off each. They'll see 36 plants and possibly 36 clones depending on time and 4 moms and shit bricks with excitement and be like thats 1 lb for each! I still would like to SOG, I just think i'm going to be pulling my hair out with the amount of work involved. ABF makes it seem so easy. And he runs 4 tables! WTF?!
