Temps no higher that 85 and humidity 75% for veg. Flowing same temp but 51% humidity is optimal. A humidifier in your veg room will allow for more light with lower temp. Raising the humidity will lower the temp. Lights are way important. All about the lumens per square foot. Los of good info...
Re: When & How To Harvest
What do you consider proper genetics? Couldn't think of anything else to write? As for how I pick mine it is written in this thread. I don't have time to explain it again but when you haven't been following along you shouldn't make comments that you are unsure of...
you should ditch the foil and hang some panda film. The light will not reflect off the foil as efficiently as it will with the white walls. Also the foil will make your room hotter than the plastic will. But the buds are coming along nicely. Keep up the good work!
What you found is that you are lucky you had the right strain because the hairs have nothing to do with trichromes which are what hold the THC. If you go by the hairs you have missed out on the Max potential that you could have gotten unless you just plain got lucky. But if you think that your...
re: When & How To Harvest
Unfortunately there is no good info on when the right time to harvest is. Misinformation is all I could find online when trying to find a picture or a link to the right info to post here. The pictures I saw were saying it was prime to pick and the thc was still forming...
re: When & How To Harvest
It is your preference to get couch lock that's why you like amber. I like to get high not stoned. The trichromes actually start clear and turn milky/cloudy as they are forming the THC. When they have reached their highest potential HTC level they start to degrade and...
Topping the plant is not for space restrictions it is for more tops to grow more colas. After 3 nodes have grown past the two small seed leaves, trim the middle between the leaves and the two branches take over as the new tops . Every time you top you double your potential yeild. I have had as...
Just because you don't think it makes a difference in the quality of the smoke doesn't mean that it doesn't. If the person asking wants to know the science it is up to them. Will it grow without anything special done to it. Obviously....but if you want to get of a higher quality you should pay...
There is no one answer to your question. The problem is that they all do what they do. Sometimes they stretch more than others, even two clones from the same mom can react differently. Definately the stretch is less with clones. Plants started from seed will grow upwards of an inch a day in...
The more lumens per square foot you have the more bud you will get. So you could grow with just 250w but it will not produce the buds you could get from the whole 600w. Figure out how to lower the temp with the 600w and then you will be much happier with your end result.
Got a microscope? 100× works good. About $9 at your local grow shop or on line. Remember the trichromes will continue to degrade as it dries. Happy harvesting!
