Hello everyone. Im new to the forum...fairly new to growing. I need help and some tips that could possibly save me a bunch of headache and help my grow in the process....my first question is how soon should i switch from veg to flower? Ive seen alot of different things. Second question, how do I raise my humidity where it will consistently stay around 40....I have a small humidifier in my grow box...im using a 400w MH bulb on 6 plants.....any advice would be great thanks.

Re: Brand new.....need help

Ok so I ll help answer your question but I need more info, pic will help as well but we need to know what your growing space is and how big, what your light is, what you would like to yield, and what strain or more specific indica,sativa,indica dom hybrid, sativa dominant hybrid, or 50/50 hybrid

Re: Brand new.....need help

Umm....your question was how long till you switch to flower....it looks like you did that already......lol

Lol.....i meant from the beginning of my grow...the next time around I want to try and perfect my system. Ive seen ppl say when the plants are 6 inches tall put them into flower...mine were about 18" or so when i switched.

Re: Brand new.....need help

If you humidity is low you can put a pan of water in front of your fan an you should be around 35-60% after that depending on you ambient temperature. One way you can maximize your yield is through SCROG. I have videos on that on my YouTube channel and You can check out the current journal I have on here right now that's getting the scrog treatment

Hmm that really depends on growing space, mainly height. Best thing to do is prob see what the max height your light set up will allow for plants, ie I run LEDs, they have to be a full foot from them in flower so my max height is approx 5 ft tall, rule of thumb is expect your plant to triple in size during the strech until you see what the strain does, and go from there. This is part of what us growers like to call "dialing in"

Re: Brand new.....need help

Not sure if you seen my last reply (still trying to get used to this site)...my plants are about a foot from my light in some places now which is not good im sure because im just 3 weeks into flowering.

Not sure what the temp is at the top....my thermometer that I have sitting st the base of mybplants fluctuates between 77° when light is out and 84° when it is on.

Re: Brand new.....need help

Yeah that not good your temp are to high at the top it prob 90+ which will cause heat stress, try to bend the to away from the light a little and I suggest feeding it Silicate, it will help against ruff conditions
