Yeah they could use some more N, go for a little bit of veg nutes with a high N ratio.. the yellowish tops wont get too much greener, but the foliage could be a bit darker.

thanks will do that when lights on. Thank you for the assessment on my plant, I also thought it could go higher with the nutes,but wasn't trying to over do it. I'll up the nutes and take some more pics with lights off in a couple of days.

Sr. verde I have been trying to put a dent in on your concentrate thread, real good read so far just trying to figure out what do do with the trim, looking for a good couchlike affect for sleep at night, if you could lead me to a specific concentrate and or link to make it, or it maybe in your thread still reading, if it is my bad.

I make BHO with my trim.. I dry it for a few weeks then cure it for 2 weeks until its 4-5 weeks old then I spray it.

the effects, like couchlock, will be dependent on strain.... If you make BHO with a sativa strain, it will have the same effects as a sativa.. :)

You could always let a plant go longer than it should, as in let more trichomes degrade into CBN/CBD (amber trichomes) and then harvest, for a couch lock, before bed medication :).


That being said, I posted a very simple video, within the first hundred or so posts on the concentrate corner... It's Benassi's technique :).

I was wondering if You can place a clone under clone lights a couple cfl's, and put it in under mh to become bigger where i can take clones then place it back under a couple of cfl's without having any issue, thinking about making my sour kush a mother for now, easy as hell to clone.

Sure why not.

Being that you're doing reserva sour kush I'll tell you from my experience in popping 144 of the beans that you should look for the pheno that exhibits up-turned leaf edges early in veg. Of all the babies in my progeny test this one produces far more than the others (about double over the next best that I "found") and has all the other great qualities including but not limited to: fast rooting, fast growing, the best bag appeal (not too many pistils, but enough) ,best smell, etc. If you ever try to find a great mother plant by popping a vast number of these beans, all you have to do is find the one with the upturned leaf edges. It first appeared to me like it was oversensitive to nutes, yet it would not exhibit any discoloration or slow growth. Just a false positive for nute sensitivity I guess because she is the best grower of the bunch and she was the only one of 144 that exhibited up-turned leaf edges. Her structure is perfect for SOG as well.

Screen looks good now. When the tips grow up let them go through now, and then just keep tucking the fan leaves. You should have a really nice screen in a month man you'll be happy you took the time to fuss with it :).

Thanks, it's crazy how it's coming along, at the beginning I thought it was a runt, slow growth then bam it really filled out.

If anyone knows a cheap soil mix for a mother plant, I know nothing about soil, just want to keep it short and very low maintenance. and what size pot big enough for a couple clones a month.

Is there a certain time where you start to draw back the nutes untill a full flush or just use nutes untill you flush. I only ask because I would like to use the nutes it has build up.And will 003 ppm water be to little ppms when I start to flush. Thanks this is my grow but This is really everyone here who has put time in to give input and advice, your words and wisdom has been invaluable much respect noob78

I use Fox Farms Ocean Forest... All day. Even on my chili peppers. I really think the next best thing would be to get your own compost pile going, but that would take a good year to yield some super good cheap soil.

FFOF is like 16.50 a BIG bag, plus my 20% soil discount at my soil store..

I use about 60-70% fox farms ocean forest 30-40% perlite. Lets the roots breathe super nice, and helps drainage a lot. Very healthy plants, respond great to watering and will dry out very uniformly/predictably. I water 1gal h2o every 4-5 days in 30% humidity in 5 gallon pots.

Yeah man! You should be proud for sure. Did a great turn around on the screen, now just do trial and error to dial it in :).

Again, I think a little different hydro vs soil. With soil nutrients crystallize into solids within the roots, and can build up after lots of feeding to affect the soils acidity, and also make it rich in nutrients even when your feeding clear water.. Hence "flush" the solids out of the soil.

I would look up some stuff that UncleBen talks about with flushing. It makes a lot of sense to me.

But generally I will just feed regularly, until I start seeing them getting really ripe, then I will straight up stop feeding, and flush the soil once or twice to make sure the plant isn't getting any food from dissolved solids. Then feed clear water for about 1-2 weeks before cutting. But then again, I'm soil ;)
