Ok. I would like to describe my current setup, plants, etc. and get any and all advice/tips on how to improve, whether its lights, nutes, plants, phenos, whatever. It can be a little overwhelming trying to hone in on the “perfect” system, etc.
So here we go...all plants are in 5 gal dwc setups.
i have two spaces in which im growing. One is a 2x4 tent w 4-75 watt cfl. Am likely adding another four lights of same type in tent. Tent currently has two plants that i plan to use as mothers. The strains came from some flowers i bought in colorado and believe, but am uncertain that one is sour joker and the other is gelato cake.
i also have a small stash of seeds i ordered from herbies. Some auto. Some fem photo.
other room is lit by a marshydro tsw 2000 and has four dwc plants. Two are auto, one is fem grandaddy purple and one is the suspected gelato cake but not sure.
using general hydroponics 3 part flora series. Used it before w decent results so stickin w what i know.
i plan to run these two autos and replace w clones from the tent. Grandaddy purple will likely be cloned and mother moved to tent for 3 moms in tent and marshydro room dedicated to flowering autos and clones.
i have more auto seeds and some grandaddypurple seeds.
my goal is to make certain i never run out of cannabis again, hopefully make some concentrate eventually (for personal use) and, in essence, harvest in perpetuity.
Any advice on what you believe i can do better would be greatly appreciated.
two autos are in 4 th week. They r two in back of marshydro room
grandaddy purple is just in second week
the suspected gelato cake and sour joker were sprouted on march 8, 2021 so theyre on day...35?? Ish.
Marshydro light is on 18/6
cfl are on 24
fire away w all your advice AND CRITICISMS. I wanna learn and i can take it so let me hear it. Please.
thx to vegan for the journal suggestion
A note about the gelato cake/sour joker plants that are on day 36 from when seed was planted and had cracked... they struggled during week 2 bc i used geolite instead of hydroton. The geolite reuires quite a bit more rinsing and cleaning. I didnt know that so ph kept rising and rising and the plants could not nourish themselves. So they had a bit of early stress. Also, my first led light and while they were not getting nutes i was baking them u der too much light. All better now though, it seems.
The”gelato cake” under mars light was just topped and a minor defoliation done.
some dates:
3/8/21- gelato cake/sour joker planted cracked seed
3/19/21- planted the autos(gelato and gorilla glue)
4/4/21-grandaddy purple sprouted
5/3/21- gelato cake/sour joker are 60 days and will be cloned
5/21/21- autos are day 63....
6/5/21- grandaddy purple 60th day. Time to clone
