Whoops, I forgot to add these

I just took the one that’s clearly suffering the most there. Not sure yet if that was a mistake. The trichromes were looking pretty juicy at my desired ripeness. I think I’m going to take each one out at different ratios of amber to cloudy to see which one comes out the best since I don’t really...

How were the results?

I thought so but I wasn't sure, thanks for the input. Unfortunately I have a lot like that because I was hesitant to cut them... I waited too long and then probably overestimated how productive they'd be. How many tops per plant would you say is a good amount if the plants are vegged for two...

I trimmed all the small lower branches that didn’t reach the canopy but I left enough lower fan leaves to catch what light does manage to make it down that far. I figure if there’s light left coming through then the plant might as well receive it. Is that naïve? Will the plant focus too much...

Indeed… I’m toward the end of week 3 of flower now, roughly 5 weeks left. I dropped the ball on the scrogging part a bit… They grew waaay faster than I expected and that in combination with my hesitation around trimming left me with far too much growth to manage. In the end I trimmed...

I've been wondering about that. I've been itching to get rid of some of the stuff that I know will amount to nothing so I can open it up a bit but all the resources I've been able to find say that it should be done when you switch to 12/12 or within a few weeks after that. Is it safe to do it...

Wow, that is a lot of growth in such a short time! I’m so ready. Up to now it’s been like watching paint dry. I had some small clip-on fans coming but I guess they were lost in transit, not sure what else I can fit in here but I was worried about airflow, thanks for the tip.

I hope it’s not considered bad form here to post in a thread that hasn’t had activity in a while. I just wanted to give an update. It’s day 46 of veg and I’m about two weeks until I throw the switch to start flowering. Here’s how they’re doing: This one still gets kind of sad when I turn the...

I'd really like to try a RDWC system but my space and noise constraints prevent me from getting that set up right now. Maybe this summer I'll be able to build a shed or something just for this but I'm not sure. I was under the impression that using hydroton like this was common?

I decided to start growing for myself recently on a whim so I invested a little money to set up two hydroponic 4x4x8 rooms to try to grow perpetually. I’ve done a lot of research but I still don’t feel very confident in my chances for the level of success I’m after. I find a lot of conflicting...
