What is your biggest question about growing cannabis?

Hello everyone!

I was just curious... What questions do you all have about growing?

Is there something you've always wanted to know, but could never get a straight answer?

I’m going to try the ocean forest for the first time on my winter grow. I’ve mixed my own all my life. I was told through my bro that it’ll stand alone and I wouldn’t even have to use the tri-mix. Only thing I add on my regular soil is calmag, terpinator, and molasses through the whole grow indoors. Outdoors, I’ll add bloom during the last couple months. Guess we’ll both find out right Mr. Potatohead?

As for Fox Farm Soil...it is grade A premium stuff and will work for you as you have read. The feeding schedule they sent you is a nutrient mix to start adding in after about the third week of development. And as you see, it changes a bit during the process. When you mix it, do each one on it’s own, don’t add all 3 in the water all at the same time they’ll blend better that way. If you use a gallon, add each 1 at a time, stir it up and then add the other until all 3 have been mixed. Your pH is pretty decent try between 6.5 and 7.0. I have used 8.8 and lowered it to 6.8 without issue.

ON THE OTHER HAND..I should add that I am a convert...... look into trying super soil. It’s an organic grow, requires no flush at the end and all you need is plain water with ph between 6 and 7. With a few fabric pots and nice lights, you’re off and running. Read up on it....seriously. https://www.growweedeasy.com/organic-super-soil

keep posting questions and pictures, there are growers here with more experience and success that you would ever begin to imagine and all love answering questions.

2 questions: The beginners tutorial states that FF Ocean Forrest will take me from seed to harvest. FF sent me a feeding schedule that requires 3 additional nutrients to be added from the beginning. I'm confused. Also, My well water is hard & registers 7.0 pH, if I add pH down, bring it to 6.5, my plants got Calcium deficient, prompting me to address that issue. Confused again. I also used EM1, should I ?
I had 2 bad indoor grows back to back and am trying to revisit/correct anything that could have happened.. before my next attempt. Thanks

Coming along nicely

Nutrients nutrients nutrients...I am currently using the following:
Jack's 5-12-26 3.6 grams per gallon
2grams calcium nitrate
1 gram epsom salt
Adding variegated violet for bloom 1/2 tsp per gallon for the first two weeks of actual flowering....

rain is fine as long as its not cold in the morning, you should be fine in the fall when it starts getting real cold every morning as early as you can go out and give her a shake to get dew off as soon as possible

Regarding outdoor growing and random rainy days, I have an outdoor grow that has started showing those little hairs (it's a girl!!!) Is it ok for rain to hit these or should I worry when actual buds start to form?

[Retodd]

I’m in the states, so not doing too well on knowing the metric/standard....lol. I don’t use a humidifier or anything in my tent when I grow indoors. I’ve only done 4 grows in my tent. As you can see from my profile pic I’m a outdoor grower. If you want to talk to the best grower on here talk to Spidermite He’s my best friend. Remember to put the @ in front of names to tag us. Good luck bud

Thanks Retodd! I have the light the reccomded 600mm above for hps! Have tried towels/bucket/tray/humidifier/ extraction fan lower!! Temp is good at around 25deg c but still only went up to 35% humidity! Trying to get above 40 or 50%!! Hmmm

[Retodd]

I’d folier feed my girls deluded fish emulsion once a week. Autos are 24/7 light. What I’m saying is it’s ok to spray with the lights on. Make sure you use a distilled water tho. Also, you can’t have the lights too close because it will burn. Good luck

[Jonny]

Thanks team! Im trying wet towels and water trays ! Will see how it goes

[alltatup]

Or you can hang wet towels in grow room--not dripping wet, but you know.....

In the old days for humidity in the winter ,my parents would place a pot of water on the wood stove and it would lightly steam away in the background. So when I tried a wide tray of water with a fan blowing on it, it did work....not a huge change but it did bring up humidity a few points
