Ok so onto today's update from the garden. Everyone was watered and fed today. Ionic Grow 4tsp/gallon, Ful-Power 20ml/gallon, Cal-Mag+ 5ml/gallon, and Hydro Guard 2ml/gallon. EC 1.9 and PH 6.0

I did defoliate all over where I felt necessary, especially the (2) SBA clones in the veg closet.. I also bent a bunch of tops over on various plants. I am monitoring the Auto's for the end of their stretch to then start with the bloom nutes.

All pictures were taken prior to watering and plant training/defoliation.

Here's the (2) GG#4 girls in the AutoCob tent:

Here's some shots of the Auto's under the QB with one of my Doggie Dreams seedlings:

And a closer shot of the clone of the Satori Male that I rooted straight into the coco, this guy is just unstoppable:

Those GG4s gonna be big when you flower them, that strain stretches quite a bit then fills in heavy buds.

Good that's what I am hoping for. I am honestly hoping to hold them off until the 5x9 comes in and tossing them under the 1K HPS to flower. I really want to see what I can do with this strain. And I'm dying to smoke some that I grow myself.

Make sure you got support for the buds, it's a viney strain that can't support its own weight.

Today's Garden update. Rough couple days health wise girls did not get watered or fed since last update. I watered and fed everyone today Ionic Grow 4tsp/gallon, Ful-Power 25ml/gallon, Cal-Mag+ 6ml/gallon, and Hydro Guard 2ml/gallon. EC 2.0, PH 6.0

I did some defoliating, LST, and super cropping where I saw fit to do so today. Only the GG#4 girls were watered and fed and that's it. The last Doggie Dreams and the Blue Harley were transplanted to bigger pots the other day. I also planted Doggie Dreams #3 into a Solo cup of Tupur today. I will be germinating some more auto seeds soon as well, more info to come. It's a strain from Mephisto I have wanted to grow for some time now, large strain so I'm excited to see what I can yield with it. Here some pics for the garden to make up for the missing updates.

I have my doubts about only needing 2 optic 1's for a 4x4 even @54watts

I think you could eek by with 4 IMHO

I will agree with this as well :hump:

I have four AutoCob's in my 3x3 and it's just right if I had a 4x4 I would want another one or two of them........

I think it was you who mentioned maybe dimming the QB in the veg closet, I have been giving this some thought lately and just wanted to let you know in the next day or so I will be dimming it down some to see what happens. :hump:

I'm down to about 350ppfD+/-, I do turn up a day or two after training or cropping. TBH, I dunno why but I feel like it helps them though it. I could likely veg at about 300ppfD if I wanted to wait a few extra days. that's about 35% anything less and I think the light starts to change spectrum(more). maybe only useful if you're going to be away, or if you are trying to draw as-little-as possible.

I personally don't see the need for a "blue(ish) 5/6k)" rig just for VEG, as it is now, I veg to fast anyway, I use two 48 pot machines, only using every 6th pot. clone/veg there till they are ready to move. I can add and remove clones as needed.

I really want to streamline my process, VEG is a very forgiveful area I can save resources.

Thanks for your input. I was thinking of what you said only because I have (2) clones of a plant I have grown before under this QB and they just won't grow any taller right now but keep bushing out, this was not the case with the COB's in veg that I had before. So I was curious if the light needs to be dimmed because the 320 watt QB for flower in the 3x3 had to be dimmed to 250 or else it was stunting the plants. The girls I am talking about are healthy and have great structure but just stacking too tight for my taste right now and not getting too tall........

Your setup sounds neat feel free to post pics if you'd like to share :hump:
