    ryan's two plant QB grow (afghani and pineapple express)

    Week 6 12/12 Sorry it's been a while but things have just been continuing as normal. The major update here is I switched from Current Culture nutes (made specifically for DWC) to General Hydroponics G/M/B. The reason for this is I just wasn't getting to best results with CC and I just needed to...

    ryan's two plant QB grow (afghani and pineapple express)

    Week 2 12/12 The grow is going alright. I'm not sure what is wrong with the afghani and the pineapple express, but they don't look 100% healthy. It's not so bad but I wish I could have perfect looking plants. I received the Mandarin Sunset clones and started them in my veg tent. I can't wait...

    ryan's two plant QB grow (afghani and pineapple express)

    Week 2 12/12 Week 1 has came and went. I really didn't do much this week, just a couple applications of Green Cleaner and watering with r/o water with added cal/mag to make the ppm (500) about 200. I didn't pH the water because it is so low in dissolved solids that one drop of pH up sends the pH...

    ryan's two plant QB grow (afghani and pineapple express)

    Things are going ok. I got the humidifier in the veg tent and I covered my window with panda film. My homie said I'll get the Mandarin clones next week. I decided to switch to 12/12 in the 4x4, so I turned my light all the way up and did that. I feel like an idiot though because when I was...

    The Chinese Quantum Board Knock Off Builds

    My light (meijiu 550v2 clone) gets very hot to the touch with the driver not mounted remotely. Dimmed it down to maybe 60% and they were almost cool to the touch. I mean barely warm. I didn't realize how much a difference a little dimming could make. My tent is usually cooler than my house with...

    ryan's two plant QB grow (afghani and pineapple express)

    Watered today with the left over from the last watering. I received the new tent and have it set up. The problem I am running into is the tent gets way too hot when it is closed. This isn't a problem with the bloom tent because I have active intake and exhaust. I may have to just keep the tent...

    ryan's two plant QB grow (afghani and pineapple express)

    Halfway through week 4 from clone. I began to feed the plants this watering. I added cal/mag to my r/o water. This got the PPM to 190. When I added a drop of pH up, the pH shot up so I added a little veg A and veg B to counteract the pH up. I ended up with a PPM of 300 and pH at 6.8. As soon as...

    just talked to my dispensary manager friend, he's going to secure me a cut of Mandarin Sunset by Ethos. I'm pretty sure he said it's an F1 cut and it's only available to employees. If all goes well I'll pick it up in a couple weeks. I'm very excited to share everything with you guys.

    ryan's two plant QB grow (afghani and pineapple express)

    I've been saying for a while I want to run a perpetual grow. Decided to pull the trigger on some supplies. I want to buy two HLG 65s to veg with but I don't have the funds to do that today. I'm going to run a closed grow so I might have to get the HLG 65s sooner rather than later if my old...

    ryan's two plant QB grow (afghani and pineapple express)

    Another week of solid growth but nothing too exciting. I decided to LST the plants starting today and here's what they look like before and after I tied them down.

    ryan's two plant QB grow (afghani and pineapple express)

    not so busy week. I bought plastic risers and saucers to keep the pot out of the runoff. I ordered some Green Cleaner just in case to prevent mites so hopefully that's not an issue this grow. I set up a Botana account because GrowBuddy has been getting stuck at the log-in screen. GrowBuddy you...

    ryan's two plant QB grow (afghani and pineapple express)

    glad to have you guys along for the grow here are some way-to-early photos but I'd like to share my set-up so why not I have intake and outtake hooked up to the same speed controller, both with carbon filters. In my tent are just the plants, a tower fan and a humidifier. I dimmed my light and...

    ryan's two plant QB grow (afghani and pineapple express)

    I don't know how faithful to this journal I'll be but I like sharing my grow so here it goes. I'm growing afghani and pineapple express from clone. They will be grown in 5-gallon smart pots with FFOF soil under a 480W QB in a 4x4 tent. I want to be smoking by Thanksgiving which is 17 weeks from...

    Microscopic Bugs

    I checked all the plants, I think two survived but I will check those again when they dry. Another question is what do I have to do to prepare my contaminated tent for another grow? H2O2 wipe down?

    Microscopic Bugs

    Found these bugs in my bud. They are super small and I just noticed looking under the scope.. Is my whole crop done for? Not just this plant but the others in the tent. Thanks

    HLG 550 V2 Rspec w/UVA Review & Grow

    My HLG 550v2 clone from Meijiu runs way hotter than 110F. I wonder if it’s cheaper diodes. The plants still seem to love the light.

    there’s a lot of dead leaves on the inside of the plants, should I just remove them and it will be fine?
