Dark Harvest GROW CHALLENGE!

[Chefbjy]

Thank you Redwasp. I do know that look all too well 😆. Everytime I go to the grow shop or plant seeds or take clones lmao.

I like those yellow sticky papers...they work. I hang them no matter what...just Incase. If I do get gnats I cut the sticky cards/paper & stick to a plant label stake in the pot too.
You are seriously busting out there! BEAUTIFUL GIRLS!,,, and beautiful images😛

 

[Chefbjy]

Thank you Tika. Wish I could grow the gc beside these guys 😉. I would have a full tent for sure but going to have to make due with the 3 dgth 😥.

Planted this beginning of july, it was about 2" tall. Tucked it away between my many tomato and pepper plants. I dont do anything to it, I just let it grow. I might work in a good amount of Indonesian bat guano for her. It wont be much but it's just fun to watch it grow with that big free light bulb 🌞

Had to break down and buy soil. I ran out of mine and dont have time to cook more for this auto I want to run. I guess I could have done hydro. Anyway, roots organics original and 707 were on sale so I grabbed both. $13.99 for the original smaller bag, $33.97 for the 707 larger bag. Figured what the hell, might as well have some around. Maybe Chefbjy or, anyone else, will help me amend this

 

[Chefbjy]

I've yet to run that 707 but hear it's like their greenfields. I'll have to read more about it, but I think it's a water only type of soil that lasts awhile as far as nutrition. Might be able to just use that to get an auto through to harvest, but I'll have to research it. Maybe just some top dressings and good teas will give you ultimate results.

 

[Chefbjy]

Okay so I'm wrong 😆. Not really any nutrition in 707, though it has more water holding capacity, less perlite, less pumice, and designed for large containers. I use a 30 day type of composting when I amend the original so stuff has time to break down and make some microbes. My recipe has been great for my photos, but I used a lighter amended soil for my autos forgetting to add p towards the end. I got the recipe from Weed Pharma and it worked well, would have been better had I fed p (top dress) and more teas though.

 

[RosettaStoned]

Chefbjy maybe I'll run that modified nute program from my buddy in the 707. I've pretty much got everything for it just have to run it I guess.

 

[Chefbjy]

That sounds like a good plan with the 707 😉 ✌.

Canopy training and leaf tucking till Saturday. May take off some fans to expose more growth tips. Speaking of fans... I dropped my clip fan on one of the not gc...doh. Taped her up immediately we'll see if the branch survives. Will only make the bud swell with trichs and thc but oops.

We're going to free the tent from these autos on my days off this week so will be training for maximum canopy capacity with the dgth. Growers love ✌.

very cool I love those videos

 

[RosettaStoned]

So.....are we flipping Saturday? Let figure this out today. Me transplanting hinges on this decision.

 

[Chefbjy]

oldjarhead100 and farmerjim haven't really touched on the subject. Not sure who is aware but there is a majority that wouldn't mind another week. As long as we're on the same page I think flip date on the 29th would be better?

[Chefbjy]

I've seen these guys in concert. I still like punk but can't get in the mosh pit no more 😆.

 

[Californiakid]

I've been going to their shows since they played in their record store, Cheap Guy in Riverside, CA.
They are a blast live!

Not gc photos in their own 4x4 and I'm going to have to wait till it gets dark so I can manage light leaks for my photos that are flowering in my shop. It will be easier to see if light is bending around the corner in the dark. Top dress my bloom mix last week. They're pulling out of a slump. Been feeding my bloom tea, plain water, kelplex with epson salt solution, and just gave them some elemental with liquid bone meal solution today. Pistils are pretty long on these gals and I'm thinking they may be ready on or around the same time my Skywalker will be. 👍

Dgth has the 5x5 tent to themselves and it would really help to go another week to try and spread my canopy out more. Since I had to dismiss the not gc photos from the tent due to light scheduling its going to be a little more bare then I had planned. But they are growing so well I hope to get a lot of stretch to manipulate the canopy more. Lower nodes are filling the center, fimd branch provided a lot of new growth I can work with, and I may take a few clones soon from some of the lower growth tips that are expending energy to help with upper canopy growth. I will be supercropping plant center left for sure to control more structure as the hps provided elongation for me to play with 😉. Just trying to spread the other 2 out and make some horizontal branching while the lower nodes make the center structure.

So do we all concur we wait another week for flip date? I vote yes.

 

[farmerjim]

Yo!!!!!!!!!! sorry, ive been MIA. I would LOVE another week. I got through my seedling pH issues but have barely even reached the scrog net! lol

My mainline tent is holding up ok though. If we flip this weekend, I'll probably just flip the mainline tent and keep the scrog tent in veg.

I would prefer to delay a week but if people want to flip I can flip 1 tent

 

[Trichomefarmer88]

I vote yes on waiting another week! Gc is ready, but dgth is just starting to get it's shit together an take off! Everything looking good now! But another week would really help my dgth!

 

[RosettaStoned]

I'll transplant tonight, thanks for getting the answer today. I just wanted the extra week for scheduling issues, more than ready to flip them all but will take the extra time.
