Cookies Kush, best yield? Need advice!

[Budswiser97]

Hi guys, just wanted to know if anybody else has done a CK barneys farm grow, if so how did it go?

Im nearly 2 months into veg it's my 2nd grow under 600w hps and two other what i believe are t5s?

They look great n all i think but what am i supposed to be aiming for tall plants or short and bushy? I want to get the most i can from them.
Last 10 i done where autos, obviously complete waste of time and got about a z and a half from them lol.

Theres a little bit of canoeing going on but looks like a nute defficiency.

Have not included any training but been feeding them every 2 -3 days, also when should i start flowering ??

Best photo i have so far will get more tomo....

Mine are just starting to flower. They respond well to topping. I revegged mine starting in March so now it's got 50 tops.

 

[Budswiser97]

How long did you keep them in veg for? Also what is revegging? Can i save money on seeds ? 50 tops so thats from loads of topping then? Would you say i can top mine still or too late?

Thanks

Bro, from top to bottom your plants are looking really healthy. Looks like you got a good greenthumb there. Your 2nd grow looks better than most people's 10th.

You'll get a nice stretch when you flip them, figure up to 50% increase in height.

If it were me, I'd top/FIM all of them and flip them into flower in 7-14 days.

Keep up the good work.

 

[Budswiser97]

Cheers man! Appreciate it, least i'm getting something right

And thats just what i wanted to hear 50% height sounds perfect thought they were a bit short! I'll top them tomo and flip in about 10 days then i'll keep ya posted thanks for the advice really appreciate it dude.

Topped and fimmed a few today just to compare end results and left a few to be....

Had to add some dr schimmels since i noticed some small clear bugs on the fan leaves uses it before so hopefully works again... what are they???

What they showed at the cup and what they are selling aren't necessarily the same thing.

Understood so I'll ask again for the specifics of your charge.

If you were to look at the link below, the same one as my previous post you would see the specifics of my charge.
On seedfinder, Cookies kush has a rating of 2.7/10 out of 11 votes. That website is legit.

On the other hand, if you were to use the search function or google, you would see that Barneys Farm and Cookies Kush are both under average.

Helpp!!!!!

Hi guys! Quick update but also need the advice of some pros....!

Attached are photos of my plants now, which seemed to have develop brown spots and dying edges of leaves!! IS THIS FUNGUS?? Should i start chopping? Or am i not feeding them enough???

Desperate for advice! Thanks

 

[newguy123]

That's just a deficiency. Go look at a chart on google to find out what kind.

 

[Poontanger]

[Budswiser97]

Thanks for beins so quick and helpful! I guess i'll just pick up this cal -mag i've been reading about then?

 

[Budswiser97]

Also can i trim my plants? Of the fan leaves so more light can get to lower to be colas??

Cheers again guys

Good idea

By the look of your plants, you do not need trimming.

On the other hand, you need to get your light closer to the plants, 18'' is good. Try it out.

Sorry just a question now sorry its a late reply.... why would i want my lights closer if i've achieved right temp? If not hotter...
I know i want to keep them bushy but its cooking them alive low down

I've had my 600 as low as 10in. You need to get some fans going in there. One stagnant fan blowing directly on the light then two oscillating fans circulating the air.

Tho 4 oscillating fans would be optimal. (One in each corner)

Also I thought from the first few pics you may be in the early stages of N toxcicity but when u take pic with the flash on they look normal. May be a trick of the lighting idk but something to take note of

 

[Budswiser97]

Cheers man! So will that cool my lights a bit? Stop it getting so hot in my room? Also what do closer lights do anyway? Is it just to stop stretching or for better produce / yield?

Also dont i run the risk of light burn??
