Hey there! This is my first grow. Nutrients PH and Light isn’t perfect, but my plant still seems to grow. It’s now 4 & 1/2 Weeks into flower (including preflower) and I would like to now what you guys think about it, how it compares with plants with nearly perfect conditions. It’s a DelaHaze, if you are curious :slight_smile:

It has 3 of these buds and underneath them there are a lot other buds too.
It is only one plant, so how much yield can I expect from it?
I am grateful for all types of feedback and answers!

Nowhere near enough information to be able to answer your questions. How old is the plant, how tall, give us particulars so we can better understand what is going on.

Thanks for your reply @Myfriendis410!
My lady is 2 months and 6 days old. She is 79cm tall (about 31 inches I think) and in flower for 4 weeks and 4 days :slight_smile:

It’s a Dela Haze Cuttling I grow it indoor. It has about 1m x 1m (3,2x3,2) space.
Soil. It was just some random soil I got from a gardeners shop. PH of the soil itself is 6.3

I only use Alga Bloom (3-2-5) since the beginning of flower. 4ml per 1litre of water.

Temperature is 25°C (77°F) pretty much always
Typical humindity I’d say (the plant is in the guest room)
45W LED + 95W Warm White LED

I hope that helps ^^
Greetings, Deibiddo

Based on the picture and the information you gave, it looks great. A couple of observations. You can’t have too much light. Adding more will only help yield and quality. BUY A MICROSCOPE OR LOUPE! You can’t harvest properly without it. There is simply no way to judge without looking at the trichomes under magnification. That last couple of weeks could see your yield nearly double. IMO you could see 2 to 3 oz of bud from your plant, ideally.

Looking at the pics you seem to have a nice plant going but it looks like you got some time left
And I’d say from your discription you hat 1 maybe 2 dry ounces of you wait for the right time to harvest
Not bad for a first grow one plant
Did you top , fim or use any other training techniques on her
@Myfriendis410 is right more light equals bigger denser buds
I have 1800 equivalent watts of led in my tent 4x4x7 tent just to give you an idea I also have 4 plants on that tent

@Countryboyjvd1971
Well since this is my first grow I didn’t put too many ressources into it. I will consider buying better light and a tent for my next grow, for example^^
I hope you guys are right. 2 ounces or even 1 ounce is a lot, at least for me :smiley:.

I understand @Deibiddo was just pointing it out an giving you a reference I built my ligh collection up over time
I’m all in at this point hahahha and have a total of 8 light fixtures and will most likely buy bigger ones in the future lol I might be addicted to buying lights
If you can bulbs in 2700 k range are better for flowering you want more red for flowering and blue for veg
So if you can add a couple more bulbs in that range it might benefit you my friend

Can you suggest a good light that I can use for veg and flower? If it’s not super expensive that be great too^^ @Countryboyjvd1971

@Countryboyjvd1971 will have more to offer here. I have only used LED’S (and now sunlight). I built my box out of Styrofoam and, measures 3’ X 4’ X 6’ high. I currently have 1,600 watt equivalent plus side lights and am adding another 1,000 watts tomorrow. So, good lighting is pretty important in my opinion. My first grow I had two plants in the box and pulled 9 oz of bud out.

I’ve only used leds as well so Depending on budget Amazon has some good deals on lights
I started with the galaxy hydro 300 watt 9 band led I paid around 87$ I think and had good results with it
Viper spectra is another brand that’s been used by others here with good results
Mezhi is another
I’m going to tag @Niala if he’s around he has some great info on lights and spectrums and what not he’ll be more help
But like I said you can get led bulbs from your local box hardware store in the 2700k range and flower your plant which would be more in red spectrum
I think 6400 k in veg which would be more towards blue range
Also I’ll tag @Hogmaster he can probably explain it better than I can
Or @Majiktoker

@Deibiddo I have had great luck with the meizhi leds if you’re only wanting to do two plants at a time I would recommend the 600 it’s perfect they have great customer service and I have not had any issues with any of my lights so far

I am fascinated by how much love you guys put into this (especially light :smiley:)
I looked up all the lights you mentioned and I will probably go with “VIPARSPECTRA Reflector 300W LED Grow Light” since it’s the only one available to purchase in my country without paying an extra 100€^^
I will also consider buying a tent for maybe 2 to 4 plants? Will see how much space I will need for that :stuck_out_tongue:
On a lot of pictures I see people using some type of grid, what is that for? I am curious!

Thanks for all the nice and helping replies @Myfriendis410, @Countryboyjvd1971 and @Hogmaster! (On the picture that you posted are some reeeally small already flowering plants, did u grow them with a 12/12 light cycle from the beginning?)
Y’all have a nice day!

Your looking for about 2 square feet of space per plant if
My 4x4x7 in feet tent is good for 4 plants
Sorry I’m no good at doing the conversion from feet to meters lol
And we all just want to give our Girls the best environment possible
I think you’ll be happy with the viper series of light I don’t use them but have only heard good things

The grid you see is for SCROGing your plants (SCReen Of Green) and is used to train the plants over a large area for efficiency.

The small plants are I’m sure auto flower and don’t require 12 hour lights.

BTW, you don’t have to use a tent. I used rigid foam which is easy to work with, rigid, waterproof, silver on the inside and dirt cheap. Just FYI.

I’m actually doing a scrog grow now if you want to check out my thread
CB super super silver haze grow is the name
The idea behind a scrog screen or net
Is to keep canopy at the same height so all parts of your plant get the same amount of light
There’s a link post number 455 on my thread for scrog guide
It was posted by @kabongster this is my first time trying one so you might be able to learn from my mistakes lol
