    How many times do you defoliate?

    What symptoms did you observe? Asking because I had a plant just fall apart around node 10 / 14" tall in early flower. Looked like a severe mag def - all her sisters were better than fine. I added Epsom to the next 3 or 4 waterings - it got worse. I went to plain water to 10% runoff - it tried...

    How many times do you defoliate?

    In nature the plant's goal is continuation of the species - seed production. That's nature. My goal is to smoke them & make edibles & other stuff that's not quite in the natural path of the plant. Indoors I defol because my LEDs aren't as powerful as the sun, and training still requires some...

    VPD and why do I care

    I have a somewhat similar issue. I generally run 81-83f, but have found the tent at 87f / 39%rh a couple times. When that happened, I tried running the fan (AC Infinity T6 in a 4x8) 2 settings higher for a few minutes -- no change. What I've found is that I had to run the fan - tent sealed -...

    Herijuana and Strawberry Kush - 4x8 LED Soil grow

    As the title says - I'm growing Herijuana (Steve Tuck version), and my standard Strawberry Kush (I still have a lot of these) Heri - 11/11 germed, 10/11 are getting their second true leaves now (1 damped off) --- Bottom two rows in the wide shot. - so far the Heri is more vigorous out of the...

    1st tent

    Here's the link: https://growdaddyleds.com/ This is the kit I bought: https://growdaddyleds.com/products/custom-diy-kit Mine are ( 8 ) 2,700k and ( 4 ) 6,500k - Flowering spectrum. I'm hoping to add some far red / IR bars to the fixture soon.

    VPD and why do I care

    I ran a T6 in my 4x4. Any setting over 5 made the walls suck in severly. I could have added additional intakes for balance - the trick there is to ensure that you're pulling cooler air in.

    1st tent

    Mine are dimmers - waaaaaaay better than switches! :P Riiiiiiiiiight - maybe if I had 6 of them. Mine were dialed to 100% right after they got their true leaves (a week). I kept adding and adding after that....

    1st tent

    I'm in the same boat, just a bit further downstream. It's taken over a year to get even this little tent going! Sorry about the terminology - blurple, burple, burps = red / blue lights. And I don't mean to bash the performance of those lights at all (some will). They can grow great weed (mine...

    1st tent

    I have the low side of enough --- IMHO a few more bars - red, far red and IR --- 600 watts in total for a 4x4. but I'm in a 4x8.....so double that! :P Edit - thank you!

    1st tent

    Yeah - the whole "will replace XXX watts HPS" suckered me in. The burps will grow great weed - mine is stonier than anything at the dispo - they just SUCK to look at, and coverage is uneven with hot & cold spots. So far the bar set up is working well. I'm leaving the burps on one side of the...

    1st tent

    Yes, your light has the potential to run each diode at 10W --- with horrendous heat issues that would kill it in short order. Just like my Viparspectra VA-1200 - which runs 260 at the wall, and will not flower a 4x4 (like the advertisement said) :wall: Until recently I was running that Vipar...

    VPD and why do I care

    Yeah, still trying to improve my environment. 83f is fine, but I know I need to invest in a humidifier for the days when the desert winds here suck the moisture out of everything. Fortunately, my rh doesn't stay at 35% for too long at a time. I'm well aware that the original post was regarding...

    VPD and why do I care

    True - discovered that the hard way: When I originally hooked up the T-6, I had one 6" duct and one 4" duct for intake. Out of curiosity I cranked the fan to 10: - The tent incaved HARD - poles creaked & the intakes pinged with the pressure. Had no idea THAT would happen! :shock: :lol: - Didn't...

    VPD and why do I care

    I'm not Lordhooha - but IMHO --- No, the T-6 should be fine in a 5x5; it worked in my 4x4. --Just remember to size up your intakes as well, that will improve flow and mitigate in-caving.

    UPS For Grow Tent

    I'm not in LA county - but close enough that we hear about it on the news all summer long. After a few decades of this you would think they'd figure SOMETHING out! lol.

    UPS For Grow Tent

    You might be able to buy yourself some decent time depending on your lights. Maybe a lower-wattage board like a 120 - maybe even a pair of 120s - would go that far. Just tell your girls that the sun is behind a cloud! :bigjoint:
