I guess we will see how my second grow skills are!! Everything looks much better with the addition of 600w HPS. I think that maybe the dual bulb 630w CMH I use would be better off split into two fixtures for better coverage. The single fixture for two bulbs seems kind of limiting. What is your...

You gonna top or fim those little ladies?

How far away is your light? I usually have the opposite effect. My plants usually stay pretty short with CMH. I keep my light at least 20" from canopy. I raised my light 2 inches a few weeks ago and the plants stretched immediately. You really have to find the sweet spot with CMH. Unfortunately...

I agree!! Any CMH will get you through start to finish. The enhanced red is the best CMH bulb for flower. I run a dual bulb 630w CMH. It can get warm in the summer. Not as bad as HPS though.

Here are some parameters to follow from ilovegrowingmarijuana.com They have a grow guide you can use. This is for week 5 of flower: Temperature during the day/night: 79/67°F Humidity level: 50% Watering schedule: 2.5 Liters per plant, every other day pH level: 6.2

Ideally, you could get a temp controller to keep you a minimal work to maintain temps. Plug in a heater to heat and an a/c or cool air vent and fan to run for cooling. Also grab a humidity controller to operate a humidifier or dehumdifier, as needed. No more worries when you are away and then...

It takes fewer and fewer hours the more I find ways to automate everything! Lol

I lock down my temps better with an inkbird temp controller. Im about to buy an inkbird controller for humidity to keep that dialed in a bit more. But yes the cold air outside can be pretty dry.

Which leads me to my current personal debate... Space available = 5' x 5' tent Lighting available = 630w CMH, 600w HPS, 300w LED full spectrum, and a simple 45w LED Grow bulb with typical blue and red leds for extra support in any dark spot. Next grow : 4 plants in 20 gallon fabric pots...

Th The way I see it, is, with a 10 gallon fabric pot, you will have a solid 7 gallon sized root base. All this theorized in the way the fabric pots allow air pruning and the impossibility of keeping sides water enough to keep roots touching the fabric pot sides. My personal findings are 3...

Looks a little defficient and or maybe overwatered. How are your room temperatures? Heavy purples could also mean youre too cold and locking the plant out of nutrient uptake.

Are you limited in space? I've finished 5gallon and 10gallon pots and the 10s are far better, if you have the space!!

I like Pineapple Chunk a lot! I took clones from my freebie from gyo! It definitely smelled like pineapples and cheese!! I have 3 growing right now! Just chopped a bunch more maybe clones last week from my flowering chunks. I hope they take root soon!

Here is my Blue Widow tonight! Ending week 5 of flower!

I take garden wire, cut it up in sections, bend one end down about an inch or so, and lst into the dirt.

I keep the plants in plastic bags or pots until 5 gallons, then I make the switch to fabric pots. The moisture retained in the plastic pots helps so much when they are young. I compared this in my first grow. For me, plastic from seedling to 5 gallon has been the best, then switch to 10 gallon...

I'd recommend going straight to 7s! Im finding that the bigger the pot the bigger the plant saying it true. Just gotta find out if 15 or 20 gallons are the sweet spot for pots in my 5x5 tent!!

Here is a close-up of my monster Blue Widow last week!

If you do outdoor gardening often, look into companion planting and find some beneficial plants to keep in your garden to deter those pests! Here is an organic way to kill those aphids:

Have you tried autos in 10 or 15 gallon pots? I have a few auto fem seed freebies from gyo.green and will probably toss them in my next grow or the following grow. I have 3 gallon, 5 gallon, 7 gallon, 10 gallon, and 15 gallon fabric pots. I listened to everyone getting away with smaller pots and...
