forums mimic life. anyone that says "forums really suck now because people never used to have attitude" is either new to the internet or lives a very sheltered life. you just have to use the ignore feature on some people, because generally the person's overall demeanor typically shows in all their posts. same as real life.
 
Good stuff, I'm on my 4th grow and similar setup, in a very hot/humid location. My room does run an a/c so temps range 74-84.. but my 7 gal fabric pot grew a huge plant and I had to water it every day. Seems like it should have produced more than 3oz considering the size. Still I can't complain but my question is, how often do you water these 1 gal plants? I do feel like I'm wasting soil, water and space. One gal I think will dry up in less than 24 hours... in my situation at least... I just started one in a 2 gal to play it safe.

There's a lot of this attitude on forums, but I don't think that's what HighLowGrow is after, he's just saying how he keeps his grow simple.

Ya. I do my best to back things up with pics. They don't lie. Some people are on here to argue. Not my style. I try and think back when I first started back in 2009 and explain things the way I wish I would have found it back then. I didn't have a personal mentor but had something better. I had RIU. Lot of good people here. In fact, even though I haven't meet them in person, I've made some pretty good friends. Everything I post is something i have encountered, tested, or tried.

Take that. :bigjoint:
 
Hey HLG when my woman wakes up I am going to crack open the tent and get some pics with this better camera.

You mind giving me your opinion of how close my nugs are? They are definately behind their parents on grow time. But I am hydro now and the parents were in soil. The veg stage took longer in hydro.

Orange hairs but the pistils/calaxes are protruding long white hairs with tips just now browning and curling in. They are still fattening.

I notice growth every day so I am definately not bitching...

During veg every 4-5 days. Roughly every 3-4 days in the middle of flower. Later in flower every 2-3 days.

If it's over 100 degrees subtract a day.

Man that's crazy when I ran a 1 gal I was watering once or twice a day sometimes with temps of 70 to 80 and a rh of about 45 to 50% those plants look great tho man good job
 
Ive been growing and breeding for over a decade as well. I sort of disagree with a few things but to each his own and ill explain. If you use a small pot I found out you have to water a little more frequently during summer months, winter time i don't see much of a problem. A bigger pot also lets the roots stretch out into a bigger reservoir of available nutrients and water, it also prevents the plant from becoming root bound. Second part i disagree with is several plants in one small area, however this is due to the strains i grow. I grow super autos such as think different and auto ultimate. These plants are huge, the last grow i did with one think different was humongous, it out grew a 3*3 area, ended up with 247g of dry bud. Last part i like to mention is nutes, you can save hundreds if not thousands of dollars making your own. If you make your own you will know you have everything the mj plant needs no more additives such as iron or magnesium. I don't even have to adjust the ph during growth or flower, its all calculated in the mix. I spent $80 on homemade nutes that will last several lifetimes. The ingredients i bought for the home aid stuff is top notch, nothing cheap went into mine. For example over time i found out there are several types of iron chelate just as there are several types of chemicals plants use for nitrogen. I researched, even talked with a few people from texas a&m and bought the stuff that plants easily absorb without problems such as the build up of salts.

Well maybe I'm missing something here, but the plant in the bigger pot looks way better. I'm not sure how you are boasting about 1 gallon pots, when you just posted a photo disproving your own statement. ??

I know there are a lot of things that can be dialed in easily that I didn't mention. I started this with the noob in mind and maybe on a tight budget.

All I'm saying is one can grow with minimal tools. If you have a light and a fan you can grow anywhere.

You don't NEED co2, white walls, lower lighting, a timer, expensive lights and so on.

Of course you can do much much better dialing things in.

Just a KISS thread.

I know. That is funny shit. I'm not saying bigger pots won't produce more end product. Of course it will. AGAIN.- I'm just saying you don't NEED to fill up a 5 gallon pot to grow bud.

I don't think I ever said smaller pots grow more bud. If I did I sure screwed that up.
