Maybe it’s been said already but toss that pH meter. It is always at 7 pH, any one of them I’ve ever seen being used is at 7. Your soil could be 5 or 8 but it will say 7. Apera ph20 is pretty inexpensive and used widely in this forum.

I’m scared!!! :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

Looking good so far! Don’t stress the training part most of the time it feels like I’m about to snap em but so far they all responded way above my expectations. Not sure how some on here feel about em but I’ve been using some training clips from Amazon and they have been phenomenal. I have limited space (height) so I wait a lil bit to see how my ā€œfootprintā€ is gonna look and then start training them to get the most out of the area. Got a Gorilla glue going now the wife’s laughs at and calls ā€œthe menorahā€, it definitely looks like one🤣. Im enjoying following along, keep it up.

Can I start now? Is she big enough??

I’ll leave that to the more experienced here, again I see where mine start going and then start training to fill the space with any others I have going. Not sure if you posted where the seeds are from but genetics are key, I’ve got an Auto gorilla glue from one bank that is starting its 4 month (beautiful plant) who’s main stem is the same size of the Lowryder Auto I bought from here and it’s just a lil over a month.
Over the summer I had a white widow photo going that took off to quick one day and grew into the light. It was a disaster to say the least but instead of throwing it out I used it as a test subject for different training techniques and just as a guinea pig in general. Having that plant taught me years worth of knowledge in a few short months. I went scorched Earth on that thing, things I’d never even consider doing to the other plants and wouldn’t you know it started making a comeback. Harvested a few weeks ago and because of drastic trimming, training and revival it only produced 1/2 oz but WOW some of the best I’ve ever had, almost like a ā€œsmall batch bourbonā€. I know everyone doesn’t have the time and space to do so but I usually start 3-4 knowing that I only have room for 2-3 plants this gives me a backup if something happens to one or more of the plants. So far things have worked out in that area.

Ok, now I’m a REAL NEWBIE!! When you say FIM it, where exactly? It has shit sprouting everywhere!! The very top one??

Or do you mean here? I’m so confused. :unamused::unamused::unamused::unamused::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

Ok. (Today’s pics up in thread, day 17)

  1. Does it look too dark and waxy? Overwatered? Root rot? If so, how do I correct it?
  2. The spacing between nodes are really short, is this due to genetics, bad lighting, hungry?
  3. If I decide to fim, that’s at the very top, correct? Pinching it not quite all the way off? I have seen that it creates 4 colas over topping with just two.

I think I’m in information overload. :rofl::rofl:
