My last grow was OG Kush. I have the journal for that at > OG Kush Journal I got 24 oz's of big dense buds in 4x4 under TS 3000 mars hydro. You might find my new grow journal interesting. It's an experiment involving two mediums and two pot sizes. That's in my signature below.
That's quite a stretch. I supper cropped mine. I'm not sure if this is the reason why mine didn't stretch like yours, but it did make for an even canopy. That helped when they all got equal light. I also grew in FFOF. I only did top dressing in flower of gaia green. I didn't need stakes because of the chiropractic care on all the stems. It made branches strong enough to hold up some big buds.
I started in a miracle grow organic soil that had very little nutes in it (3 gallon pots) then transplanted to a 5 gallon with FFOF.
It doesn't look like you use any LST. Why? It's the best way to increase your yield in a tent. LST starting early and use this video before you flip. Big yields if you practice LST and super crop before flip.
The plants were trained pretty early actually. I tied them down when they had just a few nodes to encourage them to branch out more. I never topped or fimmed or anything, just bent branches and tied down.
we have around the same tent size and i was wondering if i could get some insight from you? how many plants you got flowering in there? i know you said you transferred into 5 gallons how many can you get in your tent comfortably?
In this tent there is just 2 5 gallon pots. Also have a tiny clone in a starter pot flowering jusy to fuck around with. If i had a 3rd 5 gallon id probably be struggling for space especially without some sort of scrog net to manage the canopy.
just got my second tent set up and I'm going to run autos in there, was thinking 3, 5-gallon would be prime in there. I appreciate the input man you've been a great help
Thanks thats some good advice, I feed boost week before flip too. Helps alot with light switch. Like it gives them notice that something is going to happen. They act like they expect the flip.Maybe I should have added more detail to that as I didn't mean to offend.
In a good soil grow there is probably lots of all needed nutrients so adding bloom foods may not show that much of a difference unless there are deficiencies. I mostly grow either DWC or in soiless using hydro nutes and that is really dependent on timing and inputs as they are all the plants have to grow with.
Doing side by side grows with identical plants from the same mother showed some decent increases with early application of bloom food. Mainly just some extra Bloom and a half dose of Big Bud a week before flipping compared to starting that at the end of week 2. Checking my daily ppm drop in DWC showed up to 4X the feeding rate during the stretch then a rapid drop back to late veg rates. I'm pretty sure it's the same with other grow methods but harder to measure.
At 75 we allways seem to get pale green, purpling stems and mag defs when applying high intensity with white leds.I like 75 and around 50% myself but keeping the RH up is a bitch in the winter.
Make those shorter plants taller to even the entire tent's canopy. Put something under them. That will get them closer to the light while maintaining your light distance.
I like to do chiropractic care on my outdoor, next run indoor too. Thanks thats good advice.
