I dont really understand how the netting is setup?
Forgive me for not going through from page 1 but the mrs smashed my laptop, is horrific trying to navigateon a phone...i see a cable tie pinching some net together...
I remember you saying you have 2 layers...
lol, You are spot on :) The first layer is mainly to train it outwards, and the 2nd top layer is to support the weight to minimize stress well they both do that, but trust me... without 2 layers you will have BIG disasters growing flowers this big! they are already extremely heavy and dense, i hope the air is moving enough to keep things A1 :)

Ok. I guess I'll have to build something to elevate the pots. Thanks.
You most certainly will if you want to gravity return your nutrients. A BIG POT is preferred.

So the second net is placed exactly matching to the other one, tied on, purely for reinforcing and strengthening the first net? what are you using for net? Making your own? I can sew nets...think I might try sewing a scrog net..loose..

goddamn, flow.

im just stunned at how fat those colas keep getting.

mine are half the fullness of yours :(
i think i let them get too big before flower,..
they way over grew the screen. all the nugs are small and super spaced out on each branch...but still frosty atleast!

is 3"-8" too close for my sealed 600's? the temp under the glass is 80ish

Sorry, i did forget to mention the top netting is about 6-10 inches above the first. The middle of the plant raises it a little in the middle which allows the side areas to come up further. You can pull the net down one you have weaved a few branches through and spread her out within reason, and this helps maintain an even level. You can always bend a few long tips under a square away under their bottom node, or tie them on with some soft wire garden ties.
I use just plastic netting, could be stronger, but it works.

3 inches is a bit close if you ask me. put your hand under there. Can you hold it there for as long as you can hold your arm out? if not then maybe too close.
 
and just another ? just making sure I have this correct you use for Veg NUtes: Grow a and b, silica, dr. repair, grow xl, and floralicious.... for flower : bloom a and b, silica, potash, swell, and suga rush.. am I getting this correct and if not could you clarify this

like i said,
directly under the glass its only about 80.F,
so yes i could hold my arm there all day and not even break a sweat. heat is not a problem, nor is burning tips,
but i was just curious if the HPS/MH were more effective at a further distance, than closer like i have mine.

ahaaaa! The secret ever changing nute regimen..dudes it's all good trying to mimic his feed times/type but I think the best lesson flowa teaches is too watch your plants/examine for the slightest stress..nailing that art/with a good understanding of plant biology wil help you find the right feeding program for you... Ec and ph meters will help with your learning..

I have a blue lab combo meter an understand how to use it
Sorry mate,i wasnt trying to be rude..
I think as far as cyco goes,i think he also likes to use that stretch inhibitor stuff?

Flowa got a ? in the Cyco nutrient regimine did you use 1ml of Grow A and 1 Ml of Grow b per liter? or 2 mls of A and 2mls of B?
I used 2 ml. Starting off at half strength. It all depends on your plant at the given time.

and just another ? just making sure I have this correct you use for Veg NUtes: Grow a and b, silica, dr. repair, grow xl, and floralicious.... for flower : bloom a and b, silica, potash, swell, and suga rush.. am I getting this correct and if not could you clarify this
This is a difficult answer, especially if you haven't followed the whole thread. I have used and still use some of these products, i have just minimized everything to keep things more simple, and much cheaper on the budget. I used Grow A+B from cyco i think ti start with then followed by Dutch Masters along with cycos slica, b1 boost, and Dr. Repair. For flowering i used Bloom A+B Dutch Masters, Silica (cyco) and add.27 (addiditive) and the first 3 weeks of flowering i fed B1 boost to keep up the nitrogen levels while the plant naturally starts to use it up. I use PGR's only when necessary to combat vertical growth if it ever becomes an issue.

like i said,
directly under the glass its only about 80.F,
so yes i could hold my arm there all day and not even break a sweat. heat is not a problem, nor is burning tips,
but i was just curious if the HPS/MH were more effective at a further distance, than closer like i have mine.
They CAN be too close. The leaves will bleach out and turn white and stress occurs. MH is cooler than HPS by about 3-5 degrees atleast. Hps will grow more compact buds while producing more UV. I have mine right on the brink, but when the colas get heavier they should all hang outwards and should level out a bit more, for now, everything looks a bit scary really, but all will lay down eventually.

VERY good advice :) thanx scroga! after all, i'm still a beginner... a lucky beginner is all.


If i were anyone using dutch master nutes id be stocking up big time...the company has gone bust :(
Yeah.... :( i seen that. I also heard in the woodworx that Cyco is the only company making nutrients for the medical marijuana companies! I will be sticking with 85% of cycos stuff, as they have always worked out well, and their quality is hard to beat if you ask me... unless you mix things up from scratch yourself. It does suck though, but the Bigger names are starting to stand out now, and it looks like WA is going to legalize cannabis soon :) :) :) Touch wood.


Yep he sure does, no reason to use them as they can make things a tad slimy!
Yeah, they make more of them to make more $$$$ I'm using less than half of what i used to use!!! and this way she even drinks more each day AND it seems as though my root growth is out of this world also!!!

Appreciate the help everyone!! Looking forward to giving this method a try
No problem matey, sorry i'm not here all the time to answer questions straight away, i happen to smoke copious amounts of erb, to the point of each day blending into the next ;) But i'm sure alot more can agree with me there :p Enjoy the run down of the method man, its all here.

Ha :) Cheers man, glad you like!!

Oh my.. Speaking of the sun :D Nice update! Looks great!
The bud at your thumb looks strange :)?
Thanx for the compliments :) that is a semi-stressed tip, just under the opening to the cooling hood, she is starting to foxtail a bit at the tips. Not going to worry me the slightest though, it only looks like a few heads, maybe 3 or 4 out of about 60+ :)

That is some craaazy bud growth for 27 days bro!! She is indeed a mega freak :D i like it!!
I know. I really dont know what to do, if i forget 1 day to do something she drains the res, this thing is literally a monster! I swear she Just burped.

Did you get the Jack Herer X Skunk strain from a seed bank, clone or did you cross them yourself? Thanks.
A friend is a plant genius ;) not from a seed bank. Current strain is Gnine. Again not from a seedbank, a super hybrid :)
