    Short and Fat is where it’s at….

    I was just thinking of all the failed grows that I’ve seen…a couple of my own included. Basically I’m thankful to have a relatively modest yield in light of the other possibilities, which include no yield at all. Sorry if I was unclear or if I came off another way. Cheers

    Short and Fat is where it’s at….

    I can say that I’ve watched the weight evaporate by the day and actually measured it. I read somewhere that it would lose 90% of what it’s going to lose in the first 4 days, although I couldn’t say if that’s accurate. I trimmed all the big stuff and hung it in 4 sections, which weighed in at...

    Need advice on a grow..

    This is my first indoor photo plant grow after several autos w/mixed, but overall positive results. It’s also my first dive into coco, which has been phenomenal to say the least. Anyway, the specs: 3 plants…I pictured them individually and together. Jack Herer, Amnesia, and Gelato OG (it’s...

    Short and Fat is where it’s at….

    boy did I learn that the hard way. I still have a couple CdLC seeds and the next time I do an auto grow they’ll be in the game. It’s def some dank nasty stuff…..smells like something really really bad that’s being covered up with something fruity and chemical. I can tell it gonna be a stout...

    Short and Fat is where it’s at….

    Yes I have nothing but good things to say about the strain and genetics. The size of the plant is all my fault. I started this plant and a couple other strains in Light Warrior soil. For some reason none of the seedlings liked it and they just sat there and turned yellow. I am usually pretty...

    Rethinking what ripe really is….

    I’ve recently completed my second indoor grow. Years ago I grew many years in a row outdoors so I’m not a total newbie…although autos and full spectrum LED lights didn’t exist back then. Anyway, I was taught by a very experienced and respected grower on the finer points of determining the...

    Short and Fat is where it’s at….

    So I posted a couple months ago asking if it was worth it to keep growing this extremely stunted auto. I ran into some sort of issue right after it sprouted and at the 18-20 day mark I had a 3” tall seedling that was yellow and almost dead. I moved it to a different setup and kept it around...

    Which is the better option?

    Drying in a few days is what I don’t want…. I was thinking about hanging the entire plant, untrimmed and try to lengthen the dry. The strain is Creme de la Chem from Mephisto and it’s definitely dank and nasty…but it has a lot of leaf to calyx ratio. Should be a bitch to trim up but maybe all...

    Which is the better option?

    So if I’m forced to dry in 72-74f temps, what is the ideal humidity? The one thing I can control accurately is the RH…. I worry if I run the RH up to 60% I’ll run into mold…, But if I keep it too low the buds will dry too fast… What gives??

    Air exchange vs Humidity

    I echo everything said….50% isn’t that high for flowering….although I would prefer lower myself. I have the same issue on extremely hot days, which have been almost every day recently. Keep the air moving and an eye on any bud rot or mildew popping up.

    Which is the better option?

    Yea I hear ya….that pic was a few days ago and I was figuring on at least another week. She’s still spitting a few white pistils and there’s a good percentage of clear trichomes still. What I really need is this heat wave to end and some more moderate temps to move in. Low-mid 70s is not...

    Which is the better option?

    So I have this small plant that’s about a week or so from ready and I’m trying to decide the best drying option. Its a very small auto that I stunted badly as a seedling. So once I got things dialed in she started flowering. I almost tossed her but I’m glad I didn’t. Should be at least at...

    Something's Not Right With My Auto's. Ideas? I'm a Novice!

    Something went terribly wrong along the way and without seeing each step and stage it’s impossible to nail down the issue(s). Honestly I would start over….and rarely is that the case. Some genetics are extremely, and I mean really extremely, finicky and stress phobic. I halfway know what I’m...

    Can I cut fan leaves during veg?

    Don’t trim unless you have good vibrant growth coming in to replace what you take. There are limited negatives to not taking and a whole world of problems that could arise from whacking…. That said I’m running a couple of photos in coco and the growth has been rapid…..they are 5 weeks from...

    Topping ?

    With many of the auto strains you just don’t have the time needed to top and allow the plant to get through it before it starts flowering. I would say that if you really have your conditions dialed in and are getting optimal growth, then topping is fine. I would totally recommend some type of...

    Ma babies in the eyes of experts

    While they may lack size the buds look like they’ll be excellent and tasty. You’ve got a solid month though, so keep them fed and happy until the last day. You may wanna back off the nitrogen a touch as they look mighty dark forest green. As for your light, there are so many good options out...

    Official Gaia Green Grow Method

    That seems to be a good combination. I just tried a couple autos in OF+EWC+extra perlite. I stunted them in a starter mix that almost killed em and I lost 2-3 weeks of veg time. I almost tossed them but moved them into the OF mixture and they took off. Around day 30 I started top dressing...

    Flippin’ out!

    Listen to this guy…..he won’t steer you wrong. I followed the KISS method with Ocean Forest as my base and top dressing w/ more OF and it’s worked out well. I added EWC and more perlite initially, also used EWC w/ the straight OF for top dressings. I’m about a week away from chopping the...
