An update with my grow since I flipped

I had a post over in the problems forum and you can click that if you want to see the history of the white widow grow. I'm in a space bucket and I flipped to flower on 5/22, so I am almost two weeks in! I also topped once at the fifth node. Not sure if I should defoliate the underneath a little bit or not. I could provide other pics if that would help.

Nice i posted mine but cannot find them or i would show you. I got skywalker og three plants. they all sprouted in april 5, 15, 23 . the 15th got stressed i got some seeds and didnt think they would germ. they did so now i got a tent with 3 skywalkers and 2 northern lites. I like that big plant you got. what strain and how old?
My NL just sprouted.... solo cup... skywalker air pots...the little skywalker was damaged in second week....been having trouble with her name is Elaine....root bound??? the stem is healthy...nut block? learning as i go....i guess less is more....then the plant seems to struggle and condense. I started on 4/1.....
now i am going to transplant the NL soon as i get the botanical trio.
then will feed accordingly.
rinsed and buffed my coco coir 2x
with cal/mag let sit for 8 hours then drained and doing it again right now. then we are ready for coco hydroponic....
its all good touch base i just started and some people here are locked out for some reason....to future growing...cheers...God Bless....

Just let her develop those four tops. Defoliating down below won't help much since those leaves do not look to be blocking any bud sites.

What is the wattage of the light(s) in your space bucket?

Nice! They are looking good. I am learning asI go to. This is my first time. Those SW look good. I’ve seen others use those pots do you like them?

I germed mine on April 16. I believe and it went into soil on the 18th. It’s a white widow. I had PH issues and over watering issues in the beginning but it has come along nicely in my opinion! On May 22 I moved to flower.

I’ve also fed nutrients two times since I started flower. Using 1/4 teaspoon of Jacks Bloom and Fox Farms Ocean Forest soil with dolomite lime, perlite and a little vermiculite. I’ve also watered with Epson salt once or twice along With spraying it when it was smaller.

Okay great. I’ll let it rock how it is. I’m using 4 2700k 15watt 1600 lumen LED bulbs for flower. Previously I was using 4 5000k 13 watt 1600 lumen LED bulbs for veg.

i am using 2 led lights that each replace a 1000 metal halide has a samsung chip LM301b full spectrum. They have 2.7umols of light and draw 100 watts. My questions is i just got the floral trio. Do I keep using Cal/Mag with the trio? In the coco/perlite?

Nice! I just checked on her and added another spacer. She is coming along nicely!
I’m truly not sure if you should keep using it or not.

She’s coming along! Growing in a bucket is difficult with doing anything hands on with the plant and watering it, because I’m always afraid I’m going to damage some leaves. You can see some of the bottom leaves have become victim of this. Besides that I’m excited to see how she progresses.

In transition with the skywalkers. The Northern Lights are going to go right into bloom. Cut them back and now no 12/12. Norther lights are transplanted vegged for 2 weeks 24 hours. First grow looking good. The big skywalker has 17 nodes stripped to the cola. The second has about 16 stripped to the cola and the third problem child Elaine had root rot so been slow dripping her trimmed all of them and put into bloom transition second night now. The Northern lights are easy with the nutrients and the 70/30 perlite so far ... the skyawalkers are in miracle grow.....LoL....stayin alive....learning as I go really fun..... :) great chat room...

That is awesome, seems like you are kicking ass. I could have swore I responded to your post, apparently I did not.

Just worked the past few days and came home realizing my girl needed water, figured I'd wait for the next day to make sure if was dried out before I gave her water. Well I got caught up this morning so I watered later than I usually do and she was drooping very badly. Basically looked dead. I gave her a gallon of water with the normal dose of ferts and after about 20 mins or so she seemed to be picking up a little bit. I put it back into the spacebucket and am hoping for the best. I've hit some hurtles as of late and I am hoping It will pull through and not stress it to much. One worry I have is some of the flower seemed to turn brown, not sure if it was because it dried out and burned from the heat and the lights or if that is the natural progression of white widow. Some pictures I have looked at do show there will be some dark flower on the bud but I am not sure. These photos are from today. Current temps are a little warm but its a hot day here. I have 81F and 39% humidity at this time.

I got the three skywalkers and I got clones in solo cups that are going into bloom i need another tent. The Northern Lights are going nuts got 9 plants in airpots in a 5x5 with two led lights simulating 1000 Metal Halide. I got too many clones.....I never imagined you could grow such a big plant in a solo cup...the roots are coming out the bottom and there easy to transplant you just cut the cup on each side and open it up and put it in the coco.....I put lots of holes in the solo cup for root pruning....two different size solo cups one thin cup for the bottom to catch the nutes its sits up a little and a fat one with the plant....the nutes fall into the lower cup and the roots start growing out the one cup and into the other amazing just transplanted two skywalker clones tonight......so i got these two plants i really have no room for and i am calling them the waste water recycling plants.....the excess nutes i get from the drainage from the coco goes in a 5 gallon bucket and i will use this for the two new family members....PH has to be played with and the ppm keeping it around 700.....fun as could be.....grow....grow....grow..... I like the coco/perlite you cant over water and the nutes are all scheduled.....yippikyah.....

that sounds pretty awesome. Maybe I’ll give coco and perlite a go next time around!

each plant right now is taking a quart a day x 6 in coco I mix nutrients in a two gallon spry bottle with Floro Trio on week six nute schedule.....alot of watering .....trimming a little the big fan leaves .... each node has 1 main cola and 2 popcorn below.....17 on each plant....just got to bring this in for a landing over the next month...... wish me luck......cheers!!!!!
