I think you got good soil and its dailed in there is little in the coco VS soil yield wise.
And if there is it wont be much and dont the better taste make up for that.
Pros and cons i guess in all we do with that plant we all love.

Hahaha true...I don't like the gnats

I was wondering if those were factors in your decision

Maybe Moon knows, who knows lol

You're awesome though, thank you Skunk I appreciate your insight

I would say with the driver on they do get pretty hot.
With out it on at 100% tent temp lights out 19/20c.
No intake on it will rise to 26c light on and pretty much sit there with just the out take.
That being said the vent to the in take is still open just no fan movement.

Thank you @Skunksta … I think I can work with those temps since thats what my tent pretty much sit at now (exhaust fan runs during lights on, off during lights out, and I have (2) 6” fans that run 24/7). AND if it gets too hot, I can crack open the window for that room and THAT will certainly fix any temperature problems (winter’s great for free air conditioning for my tent! ). Plus. I already have a full wooden “shelf” board outside on top of the tent where I keep other things, so a spot is no problem either.

Also, tx @Krissi for catching this for me!

So true...just amazes me how there are so many methods to taking care of these plants..so many methods that have such amazing results, hard to try them all you know?

So proof of what happens when you don’t feed coco enough.

Been in coco years now and kinda got the signs of stress down. Takes more than one grow to start advising in coco.
Let the praying begin.

Just find your girls are not praying in coco then its prob under feeding.
Got to get those soil grows out your head and feed daily at least in late veg and flower.

 

[Skunksta]

So last trim today before I leave them be.
Till flip that is , then the abuse will continue.
Everything seems to be a lot happier.
That is until I start to trim.
Just before bedtime.

 

[Grand Daddy Black]

That is one happy looking bunch, @Skunksta!

Be gentle.

 

[Skunksta]

Not so happy now.
Give them a few days to bounce back.

 

[Skunksta]

Will update with some pics today.
Had man flu been in bed a few days.
Things seem to be ticking over.
The AG is back on track now im feeding on a reg daily.
Defo filled out the pots now and cant afford to miss the odd day of feeding.
Think i will flip some time next week.
Going to have to abuse them some just to fit my grow space.
I pushed it this time with an extra lady.
The ghost train hazes are now in the middle next to each other.
The gelato in far left and the AG far right.

No shit!

 

[Skunksta]

So going to flip these ladies today.
Already late to flipping
Things look better not my best veg.
Neglected but can’t wait any longer.
The mars lights are kicking ass.
If anything there is to much lights for my space.
Had there last trim before flip.
And will get one more after a week or two.

PS. This is how fast things can turn around in coco.
And feeding them daily is a must.

 

[Skunksta]

These ladies get flipped tonight.
The lights are at 100% and at the top of the tent.
They all seem to be praying.
Some nute burn but to be expected came after the double dose of B.
From left to right in all the pics from now on.
Gelato/Ghost train/Ghost train/AG.
Got some new plant stands that catch the run of in a tray under the stand.
The wood ones seem to be getting moldy at times it looked like.
Let the real fun start , lets see what type of weight i and get out of these lights.


Nutes

1ml to L A/B
1ml to L Calmag
(will add boost next week sometime)
Lights off temp 19/20c
Lights on temps 23c
Leaf temp 20c on avg.

Pics at lights on later

 

[Skunksta]

No shit!

I got alot of head room lights are close to the top of a 2m tent.
So the plan on them all is 4/6 big long tops.
Anything else is going 2nd week of flower.

What sort of weight will you pull?

I'm going to be doing a shorter veg on my next run. Going to do 5 plants in 4' X 4' with 20L or 5 gallon pots.

If I do say 5-6 week and then flip what would I be looking at?

I'll do lollipopping so no little poo buds. I'll do LST and I'll top once at 4-5 node. I was thinking of doing 2 repots rather than the usual 3 so start seeds in 0.5L pot then move to the 20L at week 2 ISH depending on roots.

Just looking for a rough idea. I have to do shorter veg as I want to go straight into flower when my current longer run finishes. I flip both tents this Friday.

 

[Skunksta]

Sounds like a great plan to me mate.
With the lights you have and you know what your doing.
I would expect at a bear min 1g per watt.
Pretty sure my last grow was a 6/7 week veg and i pulled more than 1g per watt.
If you still have your hps prob alot more tbh but its what i aim for upset if i dont make 1g per watt.
Your kill it mate i been lurking in your journal you got things working for you just fine.

B-E-A-UTIFUL

 

[Skunksta]

Right had a move around.
To fit a dehumidifier in now.
To much trouble later in flower.
dehumidifier runs to a box it sits on.
I put a small pump in there and a hose to drain when needed.
Will show in some pics later.
All had a trim and i flipped the 6th of dec.
With my space i will have to trim more before i leave for flower.
I have added boost to the feed now.
I dont add anything else and always had good results.
Others might add other things in flower me just my boost.
Will update pics later.

ALL SHOGUN NUTES

1.5ML TO L A/B
1ML TO L CALMAG
1ML TO L BOOST
WATER 5.7/6 PH RANGE
ROOM TEMP 24c lights on at 100% at top of tent.
