No, I try to keep stress away of any kind when in flower unless say, like when the colas get too tall, I bend other than that I try not to mess with the plant much. I hope you treat your media because thats the source of you fungus gnat infestation. Good luck!
Yes. Rather than "popping" them like you do in super cropping, Use gardening wire or similar and tie them down like Mainliners do.
Hey, doesnt bud washing destroy/remove tricomes too? I did a 2 gallon wash instead of 3. It was water with h202 in the first and plain water on the second. I dunked half the plant in the wash and left the other half alone. The buds I did dunk had a significant amount of missing trichomes compared to the other one. Maybe I did it wrong (wasnt gentle if I can find a reason for the closest probable cause)?
No. No one else seems to report losing trichs. May of if you used very cold water and were aggressive with it.
I dont remember the temp of water to be honest. Ill have to give it another try some time.
I have a dehumidifier running in the room. I think the mound may have shown up bc one of the ducts going through the cool tube became disconnected. I’m hoping that’s what caused it. I’ll have to wait until Monday to chop hopefully it doesn’t spread
The best advice I never saw. That grow was definitely a learning experience. I shot way to high with all those strains in there and temps were high. I think I was only able to achieve a decent terpene profile on one or two strains I grew that time. Heat was a big issue.
I would have just stick with the 10gal pot myself. 30gal is for when you want to do a single plant ScroG in a 10x10 space. I do mine in 4 - 5gal pots for the largest.
Yup. I’m not cutting any corners this time around. I was thinking 10 gallons would probably suffice but I know the root system will at least double when we flip. Could see some root tips barely peaking through when I cut the smart pot to transplant. Going to make sure the screen is filled before flipping, got an ac and dehuey and Plan on getting co2 tanks for flower. Thanks for chiming in, your insight is appreciatedI would have just stick with the 10gal pot myself. 30gal is for when you want to do a single plant ScroG in a 10x10 space.

You planning on tying down your grow tips as it grows until the screen is good and full before flowering? Should get a massive yield if you do.
What's with the lowering light hours a bit at a time? If you want it to flower just switch to 12/12 and in a week you'll see buds start forming. If you want it to keep vegging then leave at 18/6 until it's the size you want before flipping.
I’ve heard from some folks here ( @Richard Drysift ) that it will stretch a bit less and have closer node structures by reducing slowly, simulating the seasons changing. Do you think it’s ready for flip or keep vegging for a week or 2?What's with the lowering light hours a bit at a time?

That screen is looking pretty full enough and the stretch will fill it up more.
