So my 2 mango kush and 3 gdp have been vegging for 35 days, gonna flip em tomorrow. I know im a long way off from a successful grow but thanks to everybody on here for helping me get this far. I think they look good, whatcha think?

They are looking good. Nice size pots, you won't have to transplant them. That's how you do it.

Using promix hp with bout 25 percent perlite, AN micro grow bloom.

I just transplanted 5 days ago, vegged in 1 gal for a month. They were definately rootbound so ill transplant a lil sooner next time.

If I were you I would hold off on flipping the light transplanting stunts the growth for a while. You don't want your plants trying to recover and grow roots when it should be flowering. I would wait until you start seeing new growth before flipping the lights otherwise you could screw yourself.

 

[chronnie49]

You should look into fimming Its a thread called fuck i missed. If you do it right now those side branches will shoot up and you can increase yield.

I have been doing a lot of reading on different training methods and will definately fim next round. I helped with grows before and messed around with a plant here and there, this being my first real grow on my own i wanted to keep it as simple as possible. Thanks for the advice though.

Mmm well shit. They have grown everyday since the transplant so i figured there wasnt much stress. U think another week would be good?

Finally 2 people agree on something lol. I think the hardest part of the whole thing was asking a question and getting 10 answers from 10 people. Its amazing how many different ways there are to grow.

 

[chronnie49]

Oh and thanks for not bashing my nute selection. I think it has worked well and super easy to use. Everybody complains about the cost but it was 30 bux for the trio, doesnt seem too bad to me.

 

[Desr]

yeah, what works for one may not work for another. there are alot of variables and different approaches and 90% of them work.

but LST. thats some awesomeness. mainline without the cut ftw.

 

[chronnie49]

Two to three weeks after transplant is how I normally role. When you transplanted did you break up the root ball a bit? It probably came out like a cork right? If it looked like this you need to break it up because root spin just keeps spinning. View attachment 3447982

Yup looked just like that, and i did gently break up the rootball.

 

[Desr]

And then put it on a sammich. Like sprouts.

 

[chronnie49]

I break them up pretty good. I bust the sides up and peel the bottoms right open. It all depends on how it looks. If you get a few duds at harvest pop them out of the pots and look at the roots.

Generally how long do you think it would take to see roots in coming through the new soil? I would like to check on them and make sure i broke them up enough and they're not just spinning.

 

[chronnie49]

That's a good question I don't know what shape they were in. Five days isn't very long and if you barely broke them up they should hold together. Just be careful digging around, always listen for the cracking sound of roots.

Ok thanks. Ill let em go 5 more days then flip em. If i didnt break them up enough and they just spin around the original soil, whats the worst that could happen?

 

[chronnie49]

Well i just checked and i must have done it right because theres roots in the new soil already. Im surprised they grew so much in only 5 days, maybe voodoo juice isnt a gimmick.

 

[Dr.Pecker]

I would still wait two weeks.

 

[chronnie49]

Ok thanks a lot for your help
