First time with photoperiod growing

I myself took the plunge into photoperiods about a year ago and I have been pleased with the ease in growing and the harvest numbers.

Good luck. These people here will guide you thru the process…you won’t go wrong.

Yes, and a good one to have especially during the winter.

I give away 95% of what I harvest. I enjoy making people happy. And they trust me that it is pure

Photos over autos all day. Autos are good but photos will give you more quality buds.

Thanks! my plan was topped when she get 5-6 nodes and again when new top have 3-4 nodes.

First clone will be in 1gallon pot and 2-4 clone from second top will be in solo cup then flip them after second top rooted. dont have spared space so long-term mother keeping will be future plan.

Day 2 night and day3 morning. Look like she growing enought to start the wet/dry cycles? I given ~75ml a day.

Normally I grow auto in final pot and the medium was dry faster.

Love it!
This is my first attempt at housing a mother and i may abort the attempt :sweat_smile:
Before i would just take clones before i flipped one and try and keep in veg in small 1gal or solo cup for weeks until the other would get done.
Sometimes that meant they’d get to big, well i would take some more clones from them plants and throw the others away that got to big.

It sounds weird i know, but I got 1 Gorilla girl seed free and I’ve kept it for going on 2 years, 3 harvested grows so far and just flipped one.

My mother is so big now im at that cross road again :confused:
I have no space to flower it and it’s to big fir it’s home.
I’m thinking its time to take 3-4 clones and throw it out my back door :sweat_smile:

Arent peanuts considered a root and grown below soil? Idk…could be interesting. How much soil and area would it take to grow an ample amount of peanuts?

Bro idk! But I eat the hell out of some peanuts. I thought it was a tree? I have not looked it up though.

Sure. Easy peasy. I would suggest a 20gallon pot that is shorter and wider vs tall. Research conditions and grow away. Southern man here and 1 side grandparents owned big ol farm. Peanuts hit some rows always. Easy grow. Just like potatoes.
