OK thanks everyone. Hmm, maybe I will rethink going with a couple of stronger HPS lights or maybe a single really strong one instead of LEDs.

I'm up for any opinion! I do currently run a combination of 3 crappy LEDs and two 150 watt sunsystem HPS lights...

Ok, so as I've learned, although my results have been perfectly fine for me personally, apparently I really should upgrade from the crazy multitude of various lights I have running right now. I sort of bought a lot of various lights over time that were cheap because that's all I could afford at...

Kind of an obvious question maybe, but I'm curious your experiences. My last run I screwed up a and didn't cut back on nitrogen as much as I should have, and had some lock out issues as well. Anyway, the flowers have been harsh, but did eventually cure away a lot of the harshness after about two...

No I agree - I just meant to say only flush if you think you've got a lot of salt buildup... And you're right about the N... I was wondering on these plants if the nitrogen was cut? Those leaves do still look pretty dark green. Or maybe that's just a genetic thing... AND, I guess ultimately...

Seems everyone wants to talk about flushing or LEDs lately lol... Flush if you've been using a lot of salty nutes, but from the looks of it, I don't think you overfed. Just give her some plain water and chop in a few days... Terrific first grow by the way.

OK yeah I was thinking it was time to start cutting back on that too...

AND..... I figured out my problem - I'm an idiot... That's supposed to be tablespoons of Gaia and Herc, oops! I was doing teaspoons. So I suppose what I'll actually do is just start ramping up the Herc, and quickly...

Quick update, all is going well with the transition, into week 6 now. One of my girls though is just starting to get what looks like a slight cal or mag def maybe. Just a very little light brown only on the lower mid leaves. I did a slurry and ph was 6.5, but PPMs are only 250. So should I do a...

Never grown Northern, so I can't say, but I will say that the bag seed I've grown and chucked is comparable and sometimes better than the seeds I bought, (depending of course on a lot of things).

Love those orange/citrus strains... Always my go to! I should try and get some of those seeds.

Hows that Tangie? I've been wanting to try it. Along those same lines, I have an unknown strain that I would describe as very similar to what I've read about Tangie. Super sweet lemon smell. And it is the one that likes to throw nanners...

Yeah, my first few grows I had read so much about not needing to flush that I ended up with some pretty bad lockout issues with drying curling leaves and what not. But what's funny is the other more hardy strains I was growing did just fine... So many factors. And the end results were fine -...

It's true - and to add to that confusion is that just the term flush can mean a lot of different things to different people - flushing to fix problems, flushing to rinse salts, flushing at the end before harvest, testing runoff - you'll get a million different answers...

But keep in mind, don't make the mistake of not flushing away salt buildup if you're using a lot of salt based nutes or something. Lockout is real - (or will I get flamed for this?) :)

I've had good luck with Viparspectra. Especially the red ones, I think mine is model 300R, I have two, but I also use HPS in addition for even better results. I have two 150watt sun systems, just have to keep them about 15-18 inches from the top...

Everything else is just refinement... :)

Point is, regardless, that full blown hermies like that are pretty rare I think. Having a plant throw a nanner or two can be fairly normal. It's not uncommon for some strains I have to get at least one or two seeds every run. Doesn't ruin anything, and I get a free fem seed out of it... In...

Yeah, I agree no more pruning, it's fine as is. Just let them get lots of light, I've never worried about adding more... And keep that soil happy which it seems you're doing. I would think extra light at this point will just help make your flowers bit beefier.. Especially down low there...

Looks very good I think. Yes, it is too late for more veg growth, but what you have will fill out just fine I think... What week of flowering are you in? They don't look burnt to me at all... From the looks of it, you're in week 2-3 flower? You should start smelling them more in two weeks or...
