Resinhounds closet

[Resinhound]

Will have to look into this in the future then. HID's are troublesome in my grow room due to heat. I'd love something that didn't pump out as much heat but produced similar results.

Well this is new for me as well I guess we'll see how it works out.What I CAN tell you at this point is im kinda struggling with heat atm...having trouble keeping it above 73f...this is definitely a change.Im partially blocking my passive intake to keep temps up.During the summer it will be easier,but now ambient is 69f in the house and the grow closet sits at 73f.

Im going to stay with 1.5ml micro,4ml bloom, .5ml liquid koolbloom in 1.9 liters of degassed tap water.Works out to 1.1 ec. I think ill be trying this profile through the rest of flower.Will see how it goes.

Getting a set of 14° lenses sent to me free of charge,ill be installing those when they arrive.This unit currently has the 50° lenses installed.Anyways its giving her a couple days to get used to the new environment.

I have to say im really pleased with customer support from apache.There was a mixup on my order and they sent out my unit with 50° lenses installed.I contacted them yesterday about it.To my surprise the 14 degree lenses arrived this afternoon next day air,free of charge.Very pleased with this I didn't expect them for a couple more days..

After only 2 days under this light,im seeing increased frosting of trichomes,this is really shaping up.

Still feel like im getting to much nitrogen,tap is 40ppm so I dont want to drop micro due to other goodies im there.Going to try .5ml cal/mag,.5ml micro,4ml bloom,1ml koolbloom.Im thinking this should drop nitrogen more,while keeping everything else I need and keeping the ec the about the same.Eventually ill find a sweet spot for this plant.

Looks good. I like the new light.

Looks really nice. How long you been in flowering?

 

[ViceCityGrower]

As long as it works for him and his personal grow I don't understand the problem

Who invited the sales rep? Can we get back to buds in a closet. P.s. I went over to gc, posted a pic about 3 weeks ago of a plant that was bleached out from too much light intensity, I had 18 different people tell me it was mag deficient, not light bleached, funny thing is instead of listening to all 18 of their experts I gave it 24 hrs in the dark and turned down my lights a bit when I put it back in, no magnesium, now she's throwing 9 finger leaves as green as they get, still no cal mag used, thanks gc, congradulations on being the largest cannabis forum online, but I think I'll stay here

Sorry for the rant @Resinhound

About 2 weeks or so, new nutrient program im trying to dial in,so far so good.

Light intensity and mag use are tightly joined,as mag is used heavily during photosynthesis.But therw becomes a point where intensity isn't a good thing,specially when its concentrated.Id rather have a nice even light distribution personally.And im always more concerned with quality over quantity.I want good meds first,yield second.Thanks for your comments guys,ill just keep ignoring the trolls,pay them no mind

Lol,1200w on a 6" seedling, don't think all the mag in the world would have helped

Lol ya...there is definately a point of diminishing returns on intensity.

Im starting to get a little anxious for my seeds to arrive I have some very limited genetics arriving...they arent here yet and it normally doesnt take this long...crosses fingers.

Mitch sent me some deep blue C a special F2 and some S.O.D.K x Alien...

Want to start germinating my next project soooooon...lol.

Glad to see you are enjoying the apache. Look forward to seeing how things develop. You going to keep the 50s on or switch to the 14s?

I have the 14 installed now,I may go to 50's in the center portion..depends really on how the plant shapes up..but I dont think ill change it for this grow anyways,she seems to like them well enough.My trichome arent getting burned off and the leaves/buds arent getting bleached so thats a good start

Old man rambling time..

The small bud indicated with the red arrow,I had at one time almost removed.But honestly I couldnt bring myself to do it,it was a late comer to the party and barely made the outside of the canopy before flower.I admired the resolve of this little shoot so I decided to keep it.Well I peeked at it closer today and that little guy is really filling out underneath Glad I decided to keep the little guy.( girl I guess I should say)

Take care all

So while waiting for my seeds,I have a couple options for next plant.I have these pargro stonewool blocks lying around to try or I can stick with the perlite in a kitty litter tray,what do you guys think?

 

[Resinhound]

Jasmonic acid...for anyone thats interested I use this once a week in a foliar with some yucca saponins added,it seems to really make the trics bust out.I wouldnt use it more than that as ive read some studies pointing to adverse effects if overused.It works by stimulating the plants defences as if it was under insect attack.Used sparingly in the final weeks seems to make a difference for me.Plants under stress in the wild will produce this acid to help cope with environmental or other stresses.

Later guys...
