    Led grown - plants too bushy - defoliating

    Sounds like a nice cloning system you have going. I just use rooting gel and root riot cubes. Soaked in root stimulator at ph6. They 1st start showing roots after 5 days. 8-9 days for the stragglers.

    Led grown - plants too bushy - defoliating

    No, but she is in flowering now. I'll take some photo's later. Lights are coming on at 7pm UK time, so will get them on here this evening.

    Led grown - plants too bushy - defoliating

    I plan to keep my mothers for longer than a year. Having 7 flowering tents with 1 plant in each makes this system quite easy. Only need one or 2 clones from each mother. My Pineapple Express#2 plant looks really nice and the 1st 3 clones to show roots were all from that plant. Took 4 clones from...

    Led grown - plants too bushy - defoliating

    I was under the impression that the more you clone them and use the clones as the new mother, the weaker the plant gets. I wanted to keep the 1st clone as a mother plant to avoid this.

    Led grown - plants too bushy - defoliating

    Vegging for ages is how long you veg for. A mother plant is a plant that is just kept healthy and alive for the pure purpose of cloning it. I will root prune it and repot it every so often.

    Led grown - plants too bushy - defoliating

    I have an 8th tent with a t5 and an led. Going to keep bonsai mothers in there in soil, then clone straight into root riot cubes.

    Led grown - plants too bushy - defoliating

    I have used the scrog method before. It's a great way to grow. This round though I'm just shooting for a few decent mother plants. Some of the plants I'm growing would work great in a scrog. I don't want to veg for ages. That is the down side of scrogging. I'm switching to hempy buckets with...

    Led grown - plants too bushy - defoliating

    I'm growing under led and growing some really nice looking plants out in search of a few mother plants. I have grown a lot of plants, but never defoliated them much. Led plants grow so lush and so bushy, like cmh plants do. I have recently been looking at grow journals where heavy defoliating...

    Coco to hempy bucket or back to soil

    I don't monitor temps or rh. I'm in the UK. I grow under led, so just create a nice warm environment in each of the seven 3ftx3ft tents and use enough electric to create enough heat to warm the whole place up a bit. The tents are spread over 3 different rooms. Some have 240w of led in, some have...

    Coco to hempy bucket or back to soil

    My plants would be dead if I fed them every 2 days. What size pots do you use? Hempy bucket or normal pots?

    Coco to hempy bucket or back to soil

    I'm finding growing in coco is just too much work. I used to grow in soil and loved the way I could just water every 3 days. Now I have to feed the plants every night at 10pm and every morning before 10am. My yield went up a fair bit when I switched to coco, but it's just too much... I grow in...

    Afghan auto topping experiment

    An autoflower only needs to be topped once. Why bother keeping stressing it out. Nailed it, between day 14 and 21 is perfect time to top it. I always top after a feed when I look the next day and it's just right at that taking off moment, then I top just once. These 2 plants are auto sweet...

    those grils has some strong amber trics,looks so amazing under Mars Hydro SP 250 and tsw 2000

    Looks like you used pots that are way too big for plants that size. You could have grown them in 6 litre pots and fed them far more often and yielded far more than what you have. They also look like they are burning from too many nutrients and it has caused several deficiencies. Do those ladies...

    Soggy Buds

    Harvesting too soon can make the plant lose some of the smell. I remember when I was new to growing and somebody told me to just pick 2 plants out of the bunch I had and run them for an extra 2 weeks until there were 50% ambers. They were far better buds than the weed harvested too early.

    .Smoke's Hempy Bucket Adventures

    Nice grow. Looking excellent, really healthy. Very clean set up too. I know you like your different strains. I urge you to order a 3 pack of Blimburn Seeds Cindy. Would love to see you grow that out. I'm doing 3 now. Have grown it before. It's a pleasure to grow and smoke. It's like Weed...
