That's awesome. I so wish I had someone around here who really knew all the serious ins and outs of things like the cure, a grow buddy...

 

[RagWeedDWC]

Its hard to fish hard during growing season

 

[RagWeedDWC]

My Run away Jack Herer aka Tumble weed.
8 gal tote with 6 gal nutrients
Feeding GH at 1/3 strength, and a total of 10ml of Hydroguard and calimag
Top feed using a spitter system from seed, two air stones feed by a Tetra Whisper AP300
Spider Light 1000
Had to bend the tops, was pushing my lights out of the way, and gave up on trying to trim.

RW, with that kind of density you have to keep your eye out for mould or mildew.

 

[Farmall]

alltatup, I would love being your grow buddy. We’re it not for the fact that I’m still working, I’d move in a heartbeat. Between the two of us, we’d be storing stuff in bales

 

[RagWeedDWC]

Yeah, have fans going like crazy and keeping humidity low. Cold weather is helping.

 

[alltatup]

Farmall It would be so awesome to have another learner-on-the-way-to-becoming-expert to analyse the situation. I think the folks who grow together where it's legal must have the chillest lives, the vibes must be so good.

RagWeedDWC Give a man a joint and he smokes for one day. Teach him to grow, and he smokes for life (You know that old "give a man a fish saying, right?) ;-}

alltatup as I was reading this, a big visual video tape started playing in my head about that scenario and it was like the big happy ending in a blockbuster movie

 

[alltatup]

Farmall I'm not sure which blockbuster that would be: maybe Star Wars. They find a planet with year round ideal conditions for growing Cannabis, and eventually they wipe out evil throughout the universe because everyone starts passing the pipe around. COME OVER TO THE DANK SIDE.

You've got talent. This is some of the best growing I've seen done on here in a while. You can tell you care and keep things clean and right. That's the first step to increasing yield, make sure you actually have a set process and keep things clean and on a schedule. The only way to test efficacy is to begin with baselines. From the look of your setup your past the worrying about whether or not you can grow the plant. Now you need a baseline to make smaller adjustments and time to see how those adjustments effect your grow style. The only two things I can mention from a visual evaluation of your girls would be that you should let them stretch up above the scrog more. They seem much too bound down. I prefer at 8-12 inches of vertical growth from my net level. That allows more buds to form above the net in the "sweetspot". That will increase your yield significantly. As well as reduce the amount of larf and "popcorn" you get from the bottom. Next would be pruning. NOT DEFOLIATION! You need to clear your shade leaves to help induce even ripening as well as help fresh airflow access the center buds. If you keep your nets as bushy as they are you will with no doubt experience mold or rot in some form during your grow career. If you have more questions I'd love to help.

Little update: Took a bit of a break from the community to figure my crazy life out. Only to return better equipped to help all my fellow hydro brothers and sisters. I'm out of the tents and now have a full scale medical facility to work with. Still hydroponic, still indoor, still Ebb and Flow, and still crushing it🤙🏼 I want to re-extend my hand out to any and all hydro growers out there. If you have any questions or concerns about your personal grow feel free to message me or post directly to this feed. I look forward to hearing from you all and have definitely missed the GWE family🤙🏼Happy growing!

Here's a little peak at the new room😉

looking very nice IslandColas ,

I see you've got HPS lights... have you thought about LEC/CDMH lights, out of curiousity?

DWC Grow #6 - Bit of an update last week of flower before I go to the ripen stage. All looking good so far.

 

[IslandColas]

I absolutely love this cycle. What size are your trellises?

 

[Drekthar]

24" inside so 3" spacing on the grid.

 

[Drekthar]

IslandColas do u think it too late to do a bit of "pruning"?
