ChefDylan Posted April 30, 2021 Author Share Posted April 30, 2021 Thank you. Still in learning process when it comes to weed, but i think i have found a system that works for me. So lets see. Let the games begin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChefDylan Posted May 2, 2021 Author Share Posted May 2, 2021 Okay, so to start this grow off, I will be running 1 x 240w led quantum board light 1 x 4" (100mm) extractor fan along with 2 other fans for circulation I will be using coco coir and perlite mix amended with worm castings and Elemental blend both from Dirty hands inc. I will be using this throughout the entire grow with the addition of a bloom booster when in flower. I will however be trying 3 different training techniques: # 1 - Mainlining # 2 - Standard topping probably around 3 times # 3 - will be left to do its own thing, will not top, trim or anything I will soak the seeds for 24hours then place the seeds directly into medium to germinate and grow from there. watering schedule - water when dry.

ChefDylan Posted May 17, 2021 Author Share Posted May 17, 2021 These girls have stretched something fierce, I think I need to crank the light up a bit. Whoops 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CreX Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 yea crank it a bit man... how high do you have your qb above the plants? i would go between 80-100cm as anything higher will also cause stretching Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious as to what height you at and how many watts you dialled into?Trying to learn and understand a bit more about lighting.Sent from my LM-X210(G) using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totemic Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 (edited) If they are under a 240 QB from Light it up, then you should have your lights dimmed to 160-180, at a height of 70-80cm for this early veg stage Edited May 19, 2021 by Totemic 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None the less they are healthy and doing well.  1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So i will monitor now until Saturday and see where I am at. Like I said above, they are getting more leafy now instead of just stem. Will monitor and adjust accordingly. Thanks for the advice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChefDylan Posted May 22, 2021 Author Share Posted May 22, 2021 Right, time for transplant. These girls are so lanky and are falling over so have transplanted into bigger pots where they will stay for the next 4 weeks. Then they will go into final pots before flipping amending with elemental mix, worm castings and myco. And watering with ph 6.0 water when dry. So here are a few pics before transplant and the amendment's I used. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChefDylan Posted May 22, 2021 Author Share Posted May 22, 2021 Here are the pics after transplant. I had to cover the stem a bit as way too stretchy. But they look much better now. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORGANinc. Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Not too much of an issue when they gain height like that in the beginning I think, can work out nicely and so it seems like it has. Nice one man! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChefDylan Posted May 24, 2021 Author Share Posted May 24, 2021 WOW!! So 2 days after transplant and I walk into this. Did not expect such a big difference. The game is on now, Hahaha 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
