Easter Babies/Big Bud & Family 1st Grow

@bonnie1 after reading you post I’m still pretty sure you need to flush. But don’t worry this is going to be a regular thing for you at lest once per grow and most likely should be done pre flower . I my self need to start to flush my big GSCX in flower because of a ph swing I didn’t catch or but lock up or lock out. When the light comes on in the flower tent I’ll load some pics.
Please don’t get to stressed out there is some what of a learning curve whit this hobby. And we all start behind the curve because we all had a out side garden and think we’ll just be the best off top. I was a sugar cane farmer for years I thought I could grow anything better then any one. Boy was I wrong. But after a year of growing inside and a couple ok harvest I’m learning I can be good at this and you will be to very soon.
O yeah also glad to hear you got some smoke.
Hit the bong again for me good luck and good growing

@bonnie1…when they get a little bigger tie them down to that netting and your buds will be much bigger! That’s what I did with my last grow and what a difference it made! Busy during summer working and taking care of my garden outside…I have eaten tomatoes, cucumbers, peas, and lettuce so far. There will be lots of cucumbers and tomatoes this year! Flowers on the front deck are looking really nice and colorful. So yes keeping busy!

ohh,la la! looking good @bonnie1!

@Kapelady… I guess you can’t see the blue garden ties I’m using but already tied them down as they popped through just like you suggested. Chocolade looks like a little Christmas tree with little white lights… wish I had outside garden, used to. Grew up on a farm in Vermont on lake Champlain,farming, gardening, fishing, you name it. Here I only have inside/outside plants and they are gorgeous this year. Been raining so much! Hopefully I’ll get to harvest ok… wish me luck!! :grimacing:

@Wishingilivedina420state… sugar cane farmer, wow! That’s an accomplishment! I thought I was doing ok but ph is a more complicated than I knew. I’m not stressing anymore… I hit that bong several times today but really getting ripped off with count, probably have to go without again after this. Anyway, one girl came out ok in small tent, went in at 6.5 came out 6.5. Trying to get runoff on one girl in big tent tonight that was 5.5, so going in at 7.5 to see what I get. I’ll get back to you. They still look good but I need to know more about flushing, thanks

Thanks, really need some weed :joy::seedling:

@Wishingilivedina420state did runoff at 7.5 came out 5.6 but I’m increasing to 8.5 and keeping it there until I see a change. Just need rest of week to try to get straight. After I achieve, if I do, 6.5 what ph do I use after that? I think this is where I go wrong?

No no no please no don’t do that wait please wait.

@bonnie1 it’s my understanding that a ph of 8.5 would be very bad for your plants. But lets get more help in this if we can @Donaldj @Hogmaster @bob31 @hillbilly103
Can anyone give any advice please?

@Majiktoker… I used ffof after germination (first transplant) but I messed up in beginning cause I had no directions other than what came with meter and I didn’t know I had to calibrate weekly or so and started having ph problems. Got it under control for awhile keeping ph at 6.5, now on certain plants I go in at 6.5 coming out at 5.5, went to 7.5 and still came out 5.5 only one girl came out at 6.5. So should I try again at 7.5 or go to 8.5 to get it to come out at 6.5? It’s after nutes that this started happening and not doing nutes now cause have to get this under control, going into 3rd wk of flower… please help! Plants do look good and getting rows of white flowers :blush:
