    Single Northern Lights auto with lots of suffering throughout life, going into flower

    If I could keep my room at 22C I would, but I don't any form of a/c, just a ceiling fan and the wind that blows through my apt all day. I'm right on top of the tropic of Capricorn, so I get hot weather most of the year round.

    Single Northern Lights auto with lots of suffering throughout life, going into flower

    Perhaps it's the time between actually beginning flower to harvest? Like we see on photo packaging. Anyway, obviously checking trichs and overall development is a lot more important than the information on the box. And wow, what an ingenious and beautiful technique. Will definitely implement...

    Single Northern Lights auto with lots of suffering throughout life, going into flower

    An absolutely valid point and something I had always believed myself, but I saw a lot of locals doing it, so I figured I'd try it myself. This particular NL auto is marketed as 55-60 days, so I've noticed it's got a really short veg timer indeed. Again, this entire 40x40 grow is experimental...

    Single Northern Lights auto with lots of suffering throughout life, going into flower

    Yeah, those look beautiful. I wanted to combine 1 topping with LST, but I probably didn't gain much in the way of yields (if anything). This single auto is meant to be more of a learning experience, since my photoperiod girls should provide me with enough bud until my next cycle ends, but yes, I...

    Single Northern Lights auto with lots of suffering throughout life, going into flower

    So I started a second tent to keep up with my personal demand, and decided to put an auto in there (my first auto). Specs: 40cm x 40cm x 120cm (so it's pretty tiny/skinny) - 10 x 15W 4000K commercial LEDs - organic soil mix, 2 feeds of root starter + 1 veg feed from BioBizz organics (as per...

    Have 2 bagseedlings with 3 true nodes - when to switch lights?

    No, only three. I feel like I should start more, but they would be almost 1 month behind the current ones :/ Even if I started an automatic seed, I'd have to continue to veg these 3 for another 70 days, and there's no telling how stretchy these bagseed babies will be. These 3 were just the 3...

    dh gate.com too good to be true?

    Hello Chronic, So I was looking for a "quality" bong (or actual bong, versus my previous carb-hole bong) and went downtown a few weeks ago. There I stumbled upon several headshops, one of which sold me this bong at what I believed to be an amazing price...

    Have 2 bagseedlings with 3 true nodes - when to switch lights?

    So, mini-update: both of the taller seedlings are working on their 4th set of leaves, and the runt is showing progress, albeit runt-like slow progress, progress nonetheless. The taller/stretchier seedling's cotyledons have started to yellow/necrotize on the tip. Does this mean that the plant is...

    Have 2 bagseedlings with 3 true nodes - when to switch lights?

    Word, thanks, man. I gave them plain pH'd water this time (5 nights after the last plain watering) at the beginning of their day cycle and they are responding pretty well (it would seem) to 250W MH I put ~160 cm away from them (will move closer as required). It's super bright in there, so I...

    Have 2 bagseedlings with 3 true nodes - when to switch lights?

    This is the root stimulator I have been using. 100% organic it says on the bottle.

    Have 2 bagseedlings with 3 true nodes - when to switch lights?

    Okay, roger that. My promix is 50 turf - 50 perlite. It has no nutes (or hardly any at aaalll) - I specifically did not buy the Organic Light Promix. I gave them a weak feeding upon transplant, which was about two weeks ago now (lol, should have written down the days), but they both got plain...

    Have 2 bagseedlings with 3 true nodes - when to switch lights?

    Understood; thank you! As for watering, though, what time of their day is best for root development?? Water them just before their night cycle or right at the beginning of their day cycle? Is it okay to water in the middle of their day cycle? I'm thinking about doing a feeding for my next...

    Have 2 bagseedlings with 3 true nodes - when to switch lights?

    Heya RIU community, how're they growing? I have been growing these 2 (+ runt) for the past two weeks or so. I removed a similar homemade humidome from the 2 taller babies yesterday for the first extended period. I just decided not to put them back on, but I'm confident they could handle more...

    First girls died, germ'd some bagseed, growing healthy, when to transplant?

    I see your point, but at least for this run I'm going to do it this way (jiffy > solo > finishing smartpot). I just have to do things in a way which I will have more control over what's going on. Plus, by putting in finishing pots, I use a lot more soil and water (and pH down), not to mention...

    First girls died, germ'd some bagseed, growing healthy, when to transplant?

    Thanks, yo. Do you remove the jiffy pellet "skin" or no? Nighttime temp has stabilized at ~81 Fahrenheit/~27 Celsius and 82% RH. I just made a makeshift tower within the dome to allow the bigger/older seedlings to grow out a bit more/spread their cotyledons properly. Basically stacked two...

    First girls died, germ'd some bagseed, growing healthy, when to transplant?

    Hiya RIU community, So, about a week or so ago, I had germinated two feminized RQS seeds. My newbiness and impatience got the best of me, and I ended up loving the girls to death before they ever got a proper chance at life. So, for experience's sake (and to complement harvest), I've planted...

    Is she damping off already??

    Just a quick update: lil' baby MJ is looking pretty much the same as she was in my last post's pictures. I'm kind of coming to terms with having loved both my first two seeds to death, because the sole survivor hasn't apparently progressed in a while, and I'm not sure how fast her growth would...

    Is she damping off already??

    Okay, I am letting it the fuck be, but I can't help but worry!!! Again I come home to a slouching plant!!! I watered it as much as I told you yesterday (~200 mL with almost 100 mL run-off, which imo is too much), then this morning I check on it and "HEY, everything's yankee doodle dandy"...

    Is she damping off already??

    Thank you, @whitebb2727. I've never taken [good] care of a plant before, it's overwhelming mostly because I don't yet understand her language xD, unlike my dog's, for instance... Yeah, I'll plan my next transplant. The first one was totally an emergency transplant because I didn't want the...

    Is she damping off already??

    All right, I gave her the rest of the water, all 150 mL that remained, and apparently, I can saturate that 1.5L pot with like 100-110 mL of water. There was about 50 mL of run-off after a 200 mL watering, so I'll give her less next time. I let the run-off (some of it) sit there in case it can...
