I have read several people do the 24 hr darkness before flower. I havent really got into putting in good research toward it yet. Im assuming its to help transition the plant to flower stage? Is this common practice that you know of? I am going to make the switch I believe Sunday night. I might do the 24 hrs thing also. Idk yet, I need to put in the research. lol. I had a few plans when I started. Alot of which i didnt stick to. I should Have put them in a different order. Right now its LS LS MM MM. And the Money Makers arent big stretchers so I was going to put it LS MM LS MM. Im not even sure if that would do anything but in my head it gives the LS more room to stretch. Anyway, as far as the spacing. Im not sure why I did 3. It came from somewhere. It was between 2.5 and 3. I think the purpose is to make sure the buds have room. There are different types of Scrogging. 1 is more of a skeleton structure, where most of the plant is above the screen.
The other is more (from what I read) of a scrog. Where you keep the screen real low. And continue tucking until stretch is completely over. Almost all the plant is below the screen. Only the actually buds are allowed to rise thru the screen. Allowing the lower bud sites on the branch that would normally be small popcorn buds or be defoliated, to rise up equally with the top part.
At least that what I have read. Made sense to me so I ran with it. But that actually has nothing to do the the size of the square. lol I guess I just wanted to make sure that if somehow I was lucky enough for one of them to give me coke can size buds, there was enough room. What made you go with 2 inches? I hope 3 works. I do not want to do it again. lol.
As far as my burn...IKD either. I think it may have something to do with me letting them sit in the run off. But it could be any number of things. I wish I could figure out what done it, so I will know in the future. Its hard to learn a lesson when you never find out the answer.
I should really try some cloning. But honestly I just want to get a couple of grows under my belt. Then maybe I can start a cloning station with some confidence. I read somewhere that cloning from a fem seed Its possible it can be fine but will likely spawn a hermy.
Do you know anything about that? I have a pack of afgan reg seed that came as freebies. I figure I would use those if I ever tried cloning. But If I can get them from a Fem seed that would be great. Id rather not spend my time growing with reg seeds and waste time growing a male. Iv done several outdoor gorilla grows/ stealth grows. Always up till last year used bag seeds. So half or so would always end up male. Alot of work to put into a plant that will end up just getting chopped.
Anyway sorry for Rambling. Im out
