"CHAT"Northern Lights #5 BX Community Grow Off Chat

I changed my light schedule from 12/12 to 13/11. We’ll see if it makes a difference. They were on 12/12 for just two days so I don’t think that will hurt. This is only my fourth grow so I’m still learning, willing to try new techniques. Need to do some more training this weekend. Finally a couple days off!!!

Another weekly update. Additional lighting has made a huge difference. Im not LSTing these ladies, but gonna let em go all natural :rofl::rofl: since the flip date is 3.1 and no time to really recover.

All five of my plants are starting to show sex. Too soon to determine which sex each plant is. They are 45 days old in 10 gallon fabric containers. They are almost ready for the SCROG frames/nets.

It may be possible to determine sex tomorrow for the weekly update.

Im having issues on my biggest plant Im not just sure yet what. Looks like a deficiency of some sort. I also found some bug eggs last night, but I forgot to take pictures. Got out my fogger and thoroughly fogged everything with Dr Zymes. Gonna spray again tonight then switch to Purecrop1 I checked the other plants everything looked good.

I fly back to seattle tonight from Arizona and San Diego. Can’t wait to check on my plants.
I have been gone a while. While I was gone we had a cold snap that got to 19 degrees f. My family said my plants out there got down to 32 degrees and look pretty sad. I was all ready fighting slow growth from the unusually cold weather before I left. I hope they are still holding on to life.

I enjoyed catching up on the thread today. Love every bodies post. This forum is a great community and I am grateful to be a member.

I feel like the same thing. They look off to me but all parameters are fine. I have messed with lighting, strength of nutes, etc. I am just going with it. I am changing lights tonight, see if that changes anything.

We talking about the droopy?

Hahaha. I just figure the droop is a part of their genetics. Increasing or decreasing lights hasn’t made a difference. They are likely high off their own supply xD.

It would be concerning if they didn’t grow like freaking weeds. 2-3 days and everything I’ve trimmed is back and they are bushes again. Pretty impressed that regardless of training all plants have about the exact same height to them. My back 2 plants I’ve done zero training or trimming. Canopy’s are all level across the board. I’m very happy with pretty much everything.

I probably screwed it up when I cleaned the base. Thats when the yellow leaves started

I wonder if cleaning them caused more pH swing than before the clean? What is your pH at?

Welp, time to stop depression procrastinating. Going to clean up the last 2 plants and check for males. Wonder if I should trim up the other 3. Probably wait till a few weeks into flower.

They are all females. As far as I can tell they each have 2 hair lady parts. Was hoping for at least a male so I didn’t have 5 going with one being in an aci base. Don’t think the XL base will feed flowering plants long enough for vacation.

Oh, almost forgot to install the 4th ACI fan. Going to do that now.
