Yes I do have a grow journal going on. My temps have been horrible though. Been getting from 67 to 92 due to the heat where I am. Even with lights off the past two days I'm at 82 and almost 85 with light on the fans and an exhaust and I'm using a 90 watt ufo
It looks like they aren't getting enough light I usually prune that bottom stuff off as it consumes plants energy trying to keep it alive when it could better use the effort on top stuff that gets prime light that bottom stuff at best ends up popcorn just my opinion though I used to make the butter & these days they're making wax & extracts out of it
Ya I should have done some more pruning earlier on, but now that it's this far into flower I think I'm going to let the popcorn keep on growing. My roommates make a lot of edibles, so I'm planning to give them all the trimmings and popcorn buds in return for the little bump in our electric bill (and all of the free edibles I end up eating)
Ya I've had some problems with heat at times too. Now that it's getting hotter we're running the A/C more though, so its been manageable lately. What kind of ventilation do you have?
Well I just used my attic to vent my tent I'm using a 6 inch vortex inline fan and a 4 inch carbon scrubber. Cool air being dragged in from my ac cooled room also my temp was 82 all day long today
I actually really like how the skunk #11 looks. Seems to be finishing faster than everything else, vigorous veg growth, and it looks to be a good yielded. A lot larger buds than the other strains in the tent. I actually just bought some more of them last night, along with a few other strains. Pics coming soon. Sorry for the slow response here
Day 36 Flowering: the whole tent. Skunk #11 back left, Phatt Fruity front left, White lavender front right, Phatt fruity hiding in the back right and one Skunk/NL poking out in the middle.
Not spreading too badly yet, but it's been slowing creeping in in the past 2 weeks or so. I realize that's a hard question to answer since I haven't been checking PH, but any thoughts?
Thanks kmog, have you ever dealt with correcting this sort of thing in the past?
It looks like you're pushing a few toxicities anyway so it may be a good time to give them straight water for a week or so, both copper and boron are hard to remedy on their own because you need to add those particular elements, and not any others. And unless you have a crazy nutrient system that has all your elements separate, you're nutrients come bundled so it's better to flush a bit to lower the entire nutrient levels in your media and start with a fresh/complete/balanced nutrient solution in a week. At that point your plants will have all the nutrients they need without overdosing them on everything they don't right now.
subbed up now!!
Thanks for the advice KMog! My nutrients come bundled into 8 bottles, so I'd have to do some research to see if any particular bottle contains a heavy dose of boron or copper. Think you are definitely right about the toxicities. Work got crazy the past week and a half - been so busy I haven't pulled the plants out of the tent/turned the LED off to really inspect them. Couldn't tell how heavy I was on Nitrogen underthat purple light. Going to give them a couple waterings without nutes and reexamine. Two of my plants get watered every two days, and two of them get it every three days. The solo cup is more like every day to every 2 days.
Thanks Mo! Imagine how packed I could've gotten it with 8 plants hahaha. Definitely going to cut my veg time next time around...Great looking grow MassHeads, a nicely packed tent you got and some lovely buds
