Hi all,
I have broken away from my normal plant the seed in soil, train a little and then harvest. This grow I am using semi-hempy buckets and scrog.
Tent 42" wide x 20" deep x 5.5 ft high
Two 150 watt HPS with new bulbs
180 CFM 4" filter and fan.
Pots are around 2-3 gallons. filled 1/3 way with perlite then capped with Roots organic.
Strains = Two Super Skunk and One Northern Lights x BB. All plants are photo.
Nutes GH Floranova
So I have a few questions. I feel that these pots are basically hempy. I bought them a while ago and wanted to give them a try. They have a 2" well in the bottom where the roots grow into and absorb water and nutrients from the well. I water from the top to avoid any salt buildups and allow the well to overflow a bit. I filled the bottom 1/3 of the pot with perlite and capped with Roots Organic.. Would you consider this Hempy?
The plants look healthy to me. I have been feeding 1/2 strength GH Floranova VEG with some Cal Mag and all of it PH'd down to 5.8-6.0. I have been following a feed-water-feed-water regimen. They seem like they are vegging just fine.
As for the scrog part. I am wondering when should I flip? This is my most important question. I 'm trying to anticipate how much they will stretch. I'm also waiting for some of the top to get a bit larger since I did some topping when I put them under the net two days ago.. I had to top a bit to make them fit the space. Maybe the new shoots will develop in veg? If I don't have enough growth above the screen I imagine I'll have pretty tiny buds.
What do you guys think? Let them veg a few more days then flip and then they will stretch and I can finish filling out the net and let them grow a few inches above the net? This seems to make sense to me.
I could always kick out the plant in the middle. This would allow me to veg the other two plants longer. I could also raise my screen a bit if I had to..
Any advice is welcome and appreciated..
