Curing will always help with smell and taste but genetics also plays a massive role in this area.. poor genetics and even flushing can take flavours away imo..

Try not to get yourself to bogged down with ph.. what strain is it? how old are they? some strains that are indica dominant grow bushy... mh bulbs tent to grow plants a little more compact it is one of the reasons for use as the blue spectrum shorten inter nodal spacing.. Between 6.2 and 6.5 i...

Agreed as i have said before the only time a flush is needed is if you fucked up and your plants are suffering.. I run rdwc so any issues is sorted instantly with a fresh tank.. Don't get me wrong i have grown in soil/coco for about 15 years before i changed to hydro and yes at first i flushed...

Hey man yeah i get what you are saying but they don't flush these fields while the plants are still in them feeding and growing.. This is done to prepare the fields for the next crop as you say to rid it of shite from the previous crop... If you was to recycle/reuse the soil or coco coir for...

I run a RDWC iws pro version and it has some major flaws.. for this reason i would recommend building your own system using as bigger piping as possible so the roots can't block the pipes.. I would also waterfall the return from the chiller to each tote or bucket removing the need for and air...

I would say Rdwc would be a good choice but remember a nutrient chiller is a must with this method so the cost may be a little higher than flood and drain to setup. I would do a diy build without air stones and using the return from the chiller to waterfall back to each pot/tote.. Happy...

spot on pal... no other crop gets flushed its totally not needed and only starves the plant of the things it needs at a vital ripening time.. The only time a flush is needed is if you fucked up. As the plant needs less i just taper off the strength of my nutrients over the last week or so never...

I would go with the biggest tent you can as one well trained plant could easily fill a 1.2m x 1.2m x 2m tent.. I dont grow with led lights so cant comment on that but i do use 2 x 600w mh/hps in a 2.4m x 1.2m x 2m tent and only 4 plants 2 per light. like above says it really depends on how you...

Looks like it could be genetic rather than something wrong.. how far into flower are you and what strain? some strains do this through flower or to the end of flower.. i wouldn't worry too much... your buds may take on a similar colour once matured.. Happy Growing

So what do you think about 400g dry? Looks a bit airy and leafy but that could just be the pics.. How many plants is that from? I will be looking for about 10oz dry a plant with with 2 x 600w hps.. 4 x bubblegummer

Watts don't matter as much as par output.. this is what all plant use for energy nothing to do with Watts or lumens.. if you can control heat you cant really beat the de 400v 1000w hps lights for par output but these are no good for small tent grows as heat will be a massive issue.

4 plants in a 2m x 1.2m x 2m tent.. about 70cm is taken up with my brain bucket, carbon filter and large fan.. 2 x 600w hps I aim for 7 to 10oz a plant dried and cured.. I run rdwc hydro so they are in the nutrients 24/7 and feed really well.

Space is a bitch pal.. it should only take 4month from seed or 3 to 3.5 from cuttings.. that's 30 to 40 oz per grow 3 to 4 grows a year's so i dont do bad really.

I do harvest 4 times a year with photos.. 3 month turn around from cuttings..

Buy a usb microscope from ebay (£15) and use it with an android phone or tablet.. looks like you have a couple of weeks left yet but without seeing the trichs it hard to say. i would say when you think its ready wait another week.. Happy Growing

As above says if you have roots they will feed so give them some nutrients.. prob best 1/4 strength to start with and see how you go..

Cheers guys for the info i'm currently doing 4 x bubblegummer (female seeds) photo plants not autos, I run rdwc, 2 x 600w hps - canna nutes(aqua veg/flores) and always get between 7 and 10 oz dried a plant, I may run some autos outdoors next year to sample how things have improved as the last...

That 3 to 5 a plant isn't bad but nothing like normal plants... I always aim for 8 to 10 oz a plant so it would be a big on on crop size... but the shorter turn around and prob smaller plant meaning I could get more in... don't think it would be any could in rdwc though but I'm sure someone will...

Is the taste there as well? Woupd be nice to see some side by side shit and taste comparison.. Sounds like autos have come on some way in the last decade then.. Thanks for the input fella. Boooooom

Will do I will get some pics up of mine when i have some bud growing... flipped a few days ago now so few more and I should have first signs.. These bubblegummer are indica dominant and don't grow to tall. Anyway speak soon pal.
