1. I never do it won't hurt anything if you do. I just flip the lights to whatever 12/12 schedule I want. People say you can get bigger harvest going 2-3 days of complete darkness at the end too. I don't do either of these.

2. I do not flush them until a few weeks before harvest. Just switch to bloom nutes is what I do start with 1/2 strength and work your way up.

3. I trim off anything that I want to.. To each their own in this case.

4. Smoking threw glass pipe, bong or whateer is the best way to taste chronic weed. Pure bud burning. However I like to smoke j's and blunts so thats what I do.

Looking good bro I got 2 RBC's out of the ground now and 1 Ice finally germinated waiting on the other Ice to pop still. I tried tweezers method on both the Ice seeds worked for one so far.

To each their own but my plan for mine is to switch nutes normally from veg to bloom and just switch the lights without the 24 hours of darkness before hand. I understand the concept behind it tho. I do plan on giving them 24-48 hours of darkness at the end of flower before chop time to make the buds ripen a little more. So maybe its the same way at the beginning. I would think that if you flushed for a couple days that you would be depriving them from some nutrients during that already stressful time. I may be wrong but it sounds good. Lol.

yeah makes sense. my reasoning was that it would use up the veg nutes and make em hungry for the new ones.
anybody have any thoughts on my idea to put fruit in the curing jar thinking that the bud would take on the flavor? probalby wrong just curious

 

[DocGreenThumb]

I've heard of people putting orange peels in their curing jars and saying it took on the aroma and taste. I have never done this but I'm also curious about it.

Hmm I wonder if orange would go good with rbc?

 

[DocGreenThumb]

Not sure bro. I'm waiting for those pics LOL. Anxious...

Hey on your RBC seedlings what light cycle did you have them on. I have the 2 RBC and 1 Ice(Ice not sprouted yet) Under 4 25watt 6500K CFL's 24 hours a day. Do you think that's enough light for another week or two. I should receive my 250watt MH system for the tent this week. It will be on an 18/6 schedule. How long should I wait to throw these girls under the MH?

Wow been trying to get on for two days server kept saying 402 forbidden. wtf was that about?
I went automatically too 18/6 and they did wonderful. I used four out of the eight t5's until they had at least to nodes on em. How many nodes do they have? I would say your probably good right now to put them under the MH right now either way. Pics coming in two seconds lol.

 

[Niko Bellick]

Doing awesome at three weeks. I think that two of four are showing predominately sativa genetics and the other two predominately indica genetics since the two on right are alot taller than the two on the left. Same nutes same light same everything that is the only explanation. also plant on front left I got a little over zealous topping and snipped an extra branch so had to even her out. let me know what you think guys!

haha, to answer your question, yes theyll be fine under CFL'S til you get the MH in. just keep the bulbs close so you dont get a ton of stretching.

Looking good. My first RBC sprout has a set of true leaves and anew set coming in and the small round leaves. The other has a set of true leaves with the round leaes still straight up with the seed husk still stuck on it LOL. My Ice's never made it I started to germinate two more a few minutes ago. My MH should be here Thur. or Fri.

Dang wtf is up with the ICE? Are you going to flower with the MH as well or do you have HPS? From those pic's what's your opinion, did I wait to long to start scrogging? Thinking maybe I should just get some wire and start training the shit out of them.

 

[DocGreenThumb]

I would still try and scrog. I have a 600watt HPS in bloom room and the MH is for my mother plants. LST them if you want.

Dude I'm still confused about how to low stress train. I understand the concept just don't know how I'd do it with four plants next to each other. any insight you can give me on lst? going to Home Depot now to get hooks to either build my scrog net or for lst. damn im indecisive

 

[DocGreenThumb]

Hmm on your hydro setup I think the best way to do LST would be to maybe use string with those fishing weights to way tops down. I'll hunt up some links for you tomorrow that helped me with LST. Here's the good news, their is really no wrong way to do it.

Think I might try this one!

 

[Niko Bellick]

Bought some zip ties last night and started doing some low stress training. I did each plant different so that each one would be shaped to fit it's needs to get the light to the lower branches and more importantly create a nice even canopy

Nice growng bro !
The orange peels DO work too.
ANY citrus fruit peel really.
Takes VERY little too.
Like the size of a quarter.
Works even better if your buds are too dry.
A piece of citrus peel will moisten your buds SO much, mold could become a prob if you're not careful.

Bongs not only allow a cleaner burn and taste, but you also get more THC as a result of the "water treatment".
Blunts and joints burn too much material and you end up smoking way more than you would in a bong or vaporizer.

Joints = About 25% THC
Bongs = About 80% THC
Vaporizers = About 95% THC

Yeah I would try that if you go with LST bro. Let me know how the zip ties work out. I'm going to try some different topping techniques on my RBC's that I'm not keeping for mothers.

RESULTS OF ZIP TIE LST TECHNIQUE

Just went to the Lab (what I call my grow room) as a result of zip tying my four girls each one responded perfectly to what I was trying to do. Will post pictures tonight or tomorrow morning. For right now its time to test smoke this "kush" i just bought.
