Love the purple!
Wife sure does like the color. If itās as good as it looks itās going to kick her right im the p_ss.
Weāll know in about 10 to 14 days. She generally smokes a bowl when it goes in the cure jar. I will leave it on the drying rack a day or 2 then into 2 gallon jar no lid so it doesnāt dry to fast. Once in the 2 gallon jar it generally takes anouther 10 days to dry enough to start the curing process. Curing is a month or more depends. You know what Iām saying.

First thing I notice is there is not a tray under your pots. That means that the pots suck back up the run off. I did that also when having this problem. To stop it I went back to air pots they automatically keep the pot an inch off the floor so that doesnāt happen.
I have never gotten mold from leaveing my salts from the nutrients and water dry on the floor. As a matter of fact Iāve never gotten mold period. That is what I use to raise my humidity.
Next I never do what they call a flush. When I feed I run extra though them at about 800 to a 1050 ppm. I mix about 6 gallons of water with 1 shot glass big bloom 1 shot glass tiger bloom no grow big in flower. I also add 1/2 teaspoon of epsom per gallon of water. I also give molasses approximately every week and a half to 2 weeks.
I have to go for now but will come back to this later. If you see thit and have any questions just ask. I use to have the same problem with the leaves as you do with fox farm nutes. If you look through here you will see. I donāt have the problem now.

I will look into the air pots, I imagine that will help. I have noticed them on some of the grow journals that I looked through. I just harvested this particular plant on New Yearās Day, but I have three clones going in my 4x4.
I was trying to find a way to elevate the clone pots for better runoff. I can see where the additional reuptake would build up, and, as the pots are on the floor, I canāt get a pH or TDS reading with any degree of accuracy.
The results of this grow were good, especially considering my mid-flower foul-up.
I donāt have space to hang the whole plant so I use a dry rack inside my tent. Lights out, inline cir fan on low, clip fan on low, average humidity is around 60, temp ranges from 68-72 depending on room fluctuations

Congrats on the harvest looks good. I have a drying rack too.
I new you were getting close with this one. Thought I would try and give some advice on how to avoid those leafs on the next one.
I donāt really have time to get run off numbers. I have the kennel pan in the bottom and all 4 plant run off goes in it. Leaving it in there to dry helps with my low humidity. I just donāt want the pots to suck it back up.
To much calcium can lock out other nutrients. My water has calcium in it that is why I switched to just giveing magnesium. I donāt really see people saying anything about having a calcium deficiency only magnesium. The molasses some tell me is a waste but I think it helps.
I switched from happy frog and ocean forest to promix bx stayed with the fox farm nutrients though. With them I feed at 800 to a 1000 ppm twice then I feed just plain water or water with epsom and molasses.
Every time I feed water I give it a lot of runoff about a quart to avoid salt build without flushing.
All this is when in flower. Veg is different.

This is the place I put stuff. If you look through you will see I have adapted and advanced. I use promix bx medium and fox farms trio and just find this easy. I never flush the with fox farms. I have different methods that eliminate the need. I also donāt have more than 15 minutes a day to spend with the plants. Photoperiod only though.

@BadMandroid look through here. Basicaly my evolution with fox farms.
@Pothead64 they donāt allow pmās.
This is close enough it is yours. Sometimes I get wrapped up in a thread and do not notice the OP stopped interacting. If so was looking for help and somebody ran a bunch of back and forth well, I just thought it rude of us.
No worries. I do the same. I also try to not make assumptions. I would like to assume she has more than 100 watts but in readining what was said I canāt say that there is.

Have you started the ilgm white truffles yet. I started 4 seeds a few weeks a go. They are doing ok but they have a strange varigation and wrinkles on the leaves. Iām not concerned with it at all because they sprouted this way. I am just am curious if anyone else is experiencing this with them.
All they have had so far is fish tank water. I ment to mix in some epsom with todays watering but forgot oh well next time. Also first time for water to run off was today. The varigation is green, white, and black [maybe purple]

I just dropped 3 last night for the seed run, only need 2 but Iāll grow the other out if all pop. I have 7 strains started that will make 6 crosses, hoping for some fireworks from them. Iāll keep ya posted on the Truffles, Iām anxious to see the yield, they posted crazy numbers like 2000 gr per M2. We will see, but if I get that, probably wonāt ever grow anything else! Lol

2000 G per meter square?
Followed a grow where a guy made a personal best of 600g per meter square. To more than triple that you would need to process 3 times the water with 3 times the light and 3 times the nutes.
Growing stuff as with a lot of stuff can be broken down to a math problem. The above outcome of 2k per sf has the plant matter to space requirements unsupportable.
Perhaps this is like the story where they kept adding CO2 to vegetables until they had an ear of corn 32 inches long and tomatoes the size and weight of bowling balls. Was going to feed the world with high CO2 food domes. The story from a technical point was determined to be" unsupported by current technical means and unable to be duplicated "
We have other words for that.

I received the seeds January 13 dropped in water 2 days later put in cups 24 hours later. Sprouted 2 days after that. So that would be January 17 above soil. Transplanted 5 days later to 3 gallon air pots. Topped and defoleated three days ago. That was all in 9 days above soil. They grow fast.

When I read that, it just doesnāt sound possible. Maybe I topped them and defoliated them 2 days ago. I do know they only been above soil nine days.

Iāve had some very good harvests, but nothing like that! Thatās what they rate the yield on ILGM website, Iāll just have to see for myself. Like I already said, it they put out that kind of yield at the advertised potency, Iāll never grow anything else again!

Trained and put in tent yesterday morning. Watered to run off today at 900 ppm and 6.7 ph. Put 2 tablespoons of epsom in also. Iāll give them a couple days and flip lights. I broke a couple branches while bending them. Spit right where the stem meets the stalk on one. The other was at the crotch where it was topped. I didnāt bother fixing it. I only wanted 3 plants anyway. That tent is going to be full the way it is. Today when I watered the one at the crotch looked almost dead. If it doesnāt recover by tomorrow Iāll cut it off.
