Thanks vapo....12 hrs of my 315 and 12 hrs. of cfls...

[Vapo69]

Ahhh....the magic lec....can't wait to see these girls go mate......really good suff😀😀😀🌱🌿🌲

[Tika]

Did you get new lights yesterday greenie?

[Green75]

Yes I did... I bought a different bulb for my 315....still full spectrum but with more of all colours..already installed...and I put a deposit down on another bulb that is used in the last two weeks before harvest...it puts off a purple spectrum for increased resin tricomes...

I bought theses two new bulbs for my upcoming auto grows in my tent under my 315 lec....hopefully going to be epic outcomes..I'm so anxious to grow autos under that bad boy full time...so far great outcomes with them under the cfls but will be even better under the big dog...

[Tika]

I suspect you have maxed out cfl capabilities- to your credit. No doubt you will find new lights to be awesome under your care

[Sonnyhad]

Green, where do you find that bulb? The finishing one?

[Karlee]

Picture perfect . That is so tight it seems no gap between the cotyledon and first leaves LOL Great job!

Day 8 pic I'm referring to.

[Green75]

Thanks Saturn

[Green75]

Day 16...training has started...two feedings so far at full strength...not much else going on....



Thanks folks...

[Beach_Town_Brit]

You make it look so easy Green!

Do you have issues getting your staples/tie-downs to stay in the medium?
I tried to emulate using softwire and it didn't go well. The soft wire clung to the stems but wouldn't hold in my medium (coco), the plant kept pulling them out of the coco. I wonder if coco is too loose for this technique?
(I'm searching desperately for an excuse here )

[Green75]

They are deep....I try and do all tie downs after i water/feed...

[Sonnyhad]

Amazing!

[PuravidaC]

What soil are you using?

[Vapo69]

I think it's coco loco dude

[Green75]

Fox farms...coco loco

[PuravidaC]

Thanks. I have been using FFOF with nothing added. I have had very slight nute burn on tips of leaves but nothing major, just enough to let me let me know they are reaching limits of nutes. I am waiting a couple of weeks before adding nutrients this grow thinking that soil has enough for the first couple of weeks but see that you have added full strength nutrients already at day 11. Can't argue with success!! 😉
