    SCROG - how to deal with dense bushy leaves

    I’m 5 weeks into veg and my plants are really bushy. I’ve seen many posts that say during veg to not remove leaves, just keep tucking them down. I’m doing that but it’s left me with layers of leaves sandwiched under the screen. Plus it’s making it hard to keep the branches sorted with the...

    Lemon Juice & Vinegars As PH Down?

    I wasn't aware white vinegar would be harmful, I learned to use it early on and never questioned it. I've seen a lot of posts now that say it's bad, but never in what quantity. I use 1/4-1/3 tsp to a gallon. My nutrients get the ph down to ~6.7 and I use the vinegar to get it to 6.0-6.2 Is...

    Snapped main stem :(

    The stem is hollow in the center and exposed though. Is that ok, water doesn't travel up the center right? Fluids travel up the outer portions of the stem? The xylem? Just making sure I shouldn't at least try and cover the opened wound. I wanted to put a scrog net over it today, I don't want...

    Snapped main stem :(

    It's been fours days and I wanted to check on the healing. The top looks healthy and has kept growing, quickly, there are two more nodes. But it's added so much weight that the tape and wire support didn't hold it in place. There's a gaping crack and it's leaned back over. It looks like it's...

    Can young plants chill under inadequate lighting for a couple weeks?

    2 weeks later, they've been under the 600W MH for only a week now. The two smaller ones (WW and BB-AK) are 1-2 weeks behind the critical mass.

    Calcium Deficiency?

    In case anyone comes across this it's most likely calcium - I found another post where the pictures are identical and they had a calcium deficiency. https://www.420magazine.com/community/threads/weird-little-brown-spots-on-leaves.294607/

    Calcium Deficiency?

    Thanks GBAuto. I’m using promix hp medium. No fertilizer in the soil so everything comes from the water. I guess transplanting into the 7 Gallon pot and only giving water it was lacking calcium for the past week. I have very soft water with next to no calcium. The feeding I gave today should...

    Calcium Deficiency?

    I just noticed a handful of small brown spots one one of my plants. Is this the start of a calcium issue or maybe something else? I'm about to feed it as it's almost dry, I watered a week ago with ph'd water after transplanting from 1 gallon to 7 gallon. Will be giving it nutrients today, the...

    Snapped main stem :(

    Great thanks everyone. How long should I leave the tape on it? I would guess not too long or it might prevent it from growing out, 2-3 days?

    Snapped main stem :(

    I was also going to prune some of the bigger fan leaves from the top that are covering some of the new growth, but with the break should I not add more stress and just let it heal for now?

    Snapped main stem :(

    I was training (lst) one of my plants this morning and should have been anchoring the stem while bending it to take stress off. But I wasn't careful enough and pop the stem snaps below the top three nodes, it was still attached on the back side. I was able to push it back in place tape it and...

    advice on how to proceed

    Oh and as far as noise goes I have it on full blast and my furnace is louder, just white noise. You can dim it down if you find it loud but it's really not a big difference power wise. It drops from 1.2 amps to 0.9 amps.

    advice on how to proceed

    I got the vivosun 6" setup 440 cfm and it's working really well. The heavier metal inline fan, not the plastic one you mention. I saw too many reviews that the 390cfm plastic one was underpowered. https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B01EV10FI0/ I have it Filter > Fan -> 600W Hood -> exhaust in a...

    Humidity problem

    I was curious what the OP's RH was as well.. Mine is at 40% and 76F, in veg. I was thinking it may be on the low side and I should try to bump it, but not sure if I need to worry

    HID Setup Help - No Lights

    And man is it bright, I was looking at the bulb because it seemed dim.. I guess it was warming up because it got bright pretty quick, like staring at the sun.

    HID Setup Help - No Lights

    I figured it out - there's a cool down delay after you unplug it. I reset the bulb and plugged it back in and it's good now This is my first ballast/hid - no idea what I'm doing lol

    Hi, I just got my hood today (Sun System Yield Master), I have a lumagro 600w ballast and vivosun MH & HPS bulbs I hooked up the hood, put in the MH light connected it to the ballast and then plugged the ballast in. It was set to 600w. The light came on but flashed dull orange, flickered a bit...

    Still have them under the T8 and they're doing well. I have started LST on both to get move light coverage.
