New growers almost always overwater and overfertilize. They never prune enough. It's hard to hack away at a plant that you want to grow - seems counter intuitive. Good luck and happy trails.
Yeah im definitely not over watering. Thats one of the things I've for sure taken away from reading articles and watching videos. Im usually watering 3-5 days apart now and letting the soil dry up a good amount before watering. I've got my water sitting now for a few hours, going to add the nutes and see how it does in the next few days. Haven't given them anything other than big bloom and am honestly going to switch to flower soon. I'm running out of room and don't want them to over grow their space.

If anyone's still watching this thread, when can I start to scrog? As previously stated in this thread, I'm prolly going to switch them in a week or 2 and wanted to know if its okay to start throwing one up now or if you need to wait for buds to form to push those up through the netting. Any and all advice welcome. :D

Couple pics after feeding them today.

PPM = Particles Per Million

It's telling you how many particles per million there are in your water. There are other measurements that correlate like EC (Electric Conductivity). Also, keep in mind that there are 2 different PPM scales, There is the 500 scale and 700 scale (more common).

I let the plants grow until 18" or so then push the screen down,this flattens the plant.So super crop it flat then put your screen down.i phone 210.JPG

How long you scrog them is how long you have left to veg them. If you do no scrog then you will start to flower pretty soon. If you scrog them out some you can wait a bit longer and get more plant out of your girls.

to make it 10x more confusing .... none of the ppm meters that read by way of EC can accurately test organic food. (all meters read by EC that im aware of)
