So much bullshit so little thread. I look at the first photo and I see no problem. I look at the second photo and my first reaction is root stress not a lot but a bit of a warning. Look, if you're using Micro Grow Bloom in a 1:1:1 ratio and the ppm is under 500 and your pH is 6 or close, then...

I've never tried 24 hours but it feels wrong. I cannot see any difference between 18 or 20 hours on, so I run at 18/6. If you are growing a healthy auto in hydro then they are at least as resilient as photoperiod, maybe even more. They respond to super cropping well but make sure you tie the...

Six weeks would be very close. Looks like it should be a good result.

It's just not how dehumidifiers work, believe me I've been there because of my grow space in a walk in wardrobe with no vents other than a door. It's also very temperature sensitive, if the weather's cool then they freeze up. In the wet season I just put up with it for a few months, if it's wet...

Currently growing a Fastbuds Auto Lemon Pie, very resinous and not airy at all. Not that there's anything wrong with airy per se like short stuff, purple gorilla for example, airy but also dripping with resin.

A dehumidifier will raise the temperature of a large space a few degrees, but it will raise the temperature of a small space too much, and if you increase the exhaust to take the excess heat away, you'll just suck in more wet air, thus defeating the purpose. That's what I discovered when I tried...

Defoliating is good, but only on plants without any underlying issues. Yours does have some sort of issue, I'm not going to speculate on that but because of that obvious issue, you may as well forget about defoliating at this point. Is that a seedsman auto amnesia btw?

Mate, if you're going to do that much work setting up hydro, I reckon you could do yourself a favour and not have the roots drowning in a little reservoir. You want to see a springy mass off roots. There are various ways to go about this, but definitely think about a redesign, then 80% of your...

I have since finished a Short Stuff Purple Gorilla, and I can see the Gorilla resemblance. If you like the gorilla surely must try the purple, it makes strongly pine resin and smokes with a milder pine/vanilla, yet she smells of diesel. She has since moved up to being the second bean on my...

I'm growing in a modified DWC, which I call an SWC. The Grobot app will calculate your VPD, and you can also set the leaf temp, which you'll need to take with an IR thermometer. Usually the default is that the leaves are 2C cooler. TBH though, I don't really pay much attention to it these days...

I haven't read the thread just the first page, but I pretty well know what it's going to say. From what I have read, generally you are correct but there is room for nuance. I grow auto these days and for me it's horses for course, I'm growing a blackberry kush auto (not the one in the photos...

Yeah, the first time I saw it I had to do a double take, like was that from what he just sifted or was that the whole container he had, but you can see the container of the rest of the weed still there when he lifts it up. Nevertheless whether he added to it or not you could see that the sift...

Sounds like an improvement over what I've seen with bags where they seem to smash the weed around too much which is obvious in the green colour of their result. I don't know if you've looked at it, but I'm basically trying to copy the technique in the youtube video I linked to in the first post...

What is a new grower suppose to think when Dutch Passion themselves, who obviously know WTF they are doing, state unequivocally that topping an auto will reduce your yields. They should add to that, 'unless you know what you're doing'. But they don't and they are wrong. How arrogant is it for a...

Coloured LED's are for all practical purposes single wavelength light, whereas when you are given a colour temperature, that is a peak value spread out over a generally continuous spectrum. It's a very blokey thing to obsess over minutiae of the spectrum, but as you point out and as anyone can...

Arrogance goes both ways, there's the arrogance of someone who knows not much or hasn't done anything themselves reacting to good advice in a bad way. However the other side of that coin is experienced growers who act as if there was not a time when they didn't know anything and cannot muster up...

Look rereading the first part, I agree the OP went a bit hair trigger, I'll give you that. However my original experience here confirmed for me what i say. However I was in the Australian thread at the time and maybe they are particularly moronic down there. On the subject of whether it's...

Indoors. Problem is that I'm using a 60x80 box aluminium silk screen and they are $100 delivered to my door each. I am regretting a bit not getting a slightly bigger mesh as I only wanted to get one. I will update this thread with a report, should be at least another three weeks till I'm ready...

OK I can see that yes, OP, did go a little over the top too quickly, but I still think that there's not enough love around here.
