Hey some quick thoughts on setup: Add a slim rotating tower fan and/or some lil clip on fans to create airflow. I would also detach your filter until it's needed . I usually don't need my filter until late into flower. This will greatly extend life of filter and also allow fan to move much more...

If you are using synthetic nutrients (salt based) then it is common to gradually lower your feedings until your pretty much just giving water last week or 2. The hairs will get brown and begin to curl up when the plant is nearing maturity. This just lets you know to start looking at trics to get...

Used mechanical timer for many grows but wanted to see my true watts . Found some smart plugs on Amazon , hooked to app, told watts , energy over time n could set schedules all great stuff. Used it for a few weeks in VEg then one day my network dropped and I discovered the plug hadn't kept...

Are you indoor or outdoor? Is space an issue? I ask these questions because you said you ordered 5 regular seeds. If you aren't breed ,pheno hunting or buying in bulk I would say always go for feminized seeds. It will save you allot of guess work and wasted time. If you only buy 5 seeds all 5...

Dude do you have a vent fan?? With a HID light you should be venting that hot air with a fan, get an enclosed hood and vent it

Just came across this post so don't know how things stand at present. I read your first post and along with pictures it provided allot of information people seemed to miss by not reading carefully. First the stretched very very bad which caused the stems to get very thin and the plants fell...

I don't have experience with HID lights but I know many swear by them and if all you need is a ballast n maybe a new bulb I would go that way instead of 150+ on a so so LED

You got 250 actual watts the 600w led is lucky to be pulling 150 watts. I would say you are low also , if you want better quality flowers.

To flower 4 plants you will need more light at least another 600.

Glad to see my post generated allot of conversation. I didn't plan on posting again because it seemed like people are just responding to direct previous posts rather then the thread from beginning. I stated in my intital post n then again and NOw AGAIN . I am not talking about taking pictures or...

Again as I said I acknowledge that it's hard to identify issues under a colored light , so politely asking for pictures under normal light is understandable but mentioning the color of a posters light pink,red, purple,blue whatever in every post is the snobbery to me because it seems to being...

So I've been a member for a while and browse site daily and I've noticed what you may call light shamers or snobs. The poster can be asking a multitude of questions, how's my plant look? What bugs , tent setup or how many plants and it seems like it's always the same culprits who reply with...

If your examples are from outdoor growing which from pictures it seems so then yes there is no need to do canopy thinning because of sunlight. Sunlight can penetrate canopy all the way to the ground and then some. Sadly science has not been able to replicate the sun's ability with any indoor...

Who needs some study when anyone can look a the size of a bud in direct light compared to one in shade. So yeah I will pull a few leaves to give light access.

You can also very gently dig it out since roots are small and re bury it deeper in pot.
