Need some assistance and advice please

Shes fine my man. It happens sometimes, just gotta roll with it most of the time it will grow thru it. Right now the least amount you touch them the better off you will be. I usually pull their hats off a few days after they break the soil. This forces the tap to go in search of water deeper into your medium. I also only water from the bottom at this stage, which also keeps the roots looking for moisture. After around 12-15 days of only bottom watering I will put a solo cup over the seedling and using a spray bottle re-wet the soil every few days for the next couple weeks, by then she is well into early veg and her roots have developed enuff to withstand some nutrient solution. Start out with 1/4 strength mixed up grow nutrients, feeding every week slowly building up to 1/2 strength after the first month. Just remember to go slow, make little changes and never change more than one variable at a time. Keep good records also, that way after you pull your first pound plant you will have a detailed plan on how to do it again. Good Luck and if u need anything just ask, there are good people here that will always help you. :folded_hands::victory_hand::green_heart:

Happy upcoming Friday and holiday growmies! Hope everybody is doing great.
Just wanted to stop by and say thanks for the prior motivational feedback. Been a little busy so haven’t posted much but the plant seemed to be a little slow at the first week or two but this week seemed to have some nice growth coming in since I fimmed her last week and defoliated a little two days ago and again today. Also have more lst than the first grow, with the 3 garden pins holding her down more.

Sorry to jump in on this thread but it looks like a lot of experience on this thread and I could use some help as well. I got 2 gorilla punch autos going on a little over 11 weeks purple one is started to get quite a bit of amber twice but only on 2 and a start of a 3rd that’s closest to the light. Should I keep feeding or start my flush?

That’s a beautiful plant you got there Tom. I love me some blackish purple weed. I’m assuming you’re 11 weeks into flower. There’s no need to flush your plants. It sounds to me like you’re looking to get some additional Amber that can take a week sometimes two to get where you want to be.

With that said, rather than flushing. Let’s say you have 2 weeks left. That should be anywhere from 2 - 4 waterings that they’ll get. Simply take away all nutrients and additives just give them plain old tap water from here out and you’ll be just fine. Just to be on the safe side you can get about two cups of runoff each time you water as well so you know your nutrients have depleted.

It’s that simple bro

Do you guys think this little tent could be fine to dry? I was going to add a damp towel at the bottom to raise the humidity up. I have it in front of my ac blowing into the vent hole to add some airflow? Trellis net at the top. The temp can get down to about 68 and humidity about 50%. Trouble getting the humidity up higher, thus the damp towel.

Should be good :thinking::sign_of_the_horns::sign_of_the_horns:

Should work, do you have an exhaust port up top?

Hey,
No actual port at the top but Velcro at the front bottom. Would that be a problem with just 1 intake port?
Thanks for taking a look and your advice guys

It probably won’t hurt with only a plant or so but warm, humid air does rise and can get trapped inside your drying tent without a dehumidifer running it is risky but Just keep that air moving and you should be fine. :saluting_face::victory_hand:

Understood, thanks for pointing that out. I will keep an eye out on the temps and humidity to make sure it doesn’t rise beyond.
Since hanging it about 3 hours ago. It’s staying at steady 65f / 55% humidity inside

Keep it simple with just using the FF trio. Feed to liberal run off on feed days, the run off acts like a soft flush rinsing the salts away that may have accumulated from the previous feeding :love_you_gesture:

If the humidity starts to climb or the temp, just prop the top of the zipper door open a little to let air out the top.

@OGIncognito thank you for the advice brotha. I do generally water with a fair bit of run off but I’m not sure why all 3 of my first grows run into some nute lockout in the first 2ish weeks of flowering it seems. I try to ph down in the 6.3 range so I’m not sure what else I could be doing wrong.
I do switch to the flowering nutes at the first signs of flower.
Ive been using the fox farms soils in all 3 grows.

@DanB word, I have done that last night to air it out a bit for like 15 mins and replace the towel. The temps and humidity have been consistent at about 66-68f and 50-60% humidity. In theory and on paper it should be pretty good conditions, hoping the flower is good too lol. Sadly buds don’t seem to be as dense as my first grow

In the cure they will tighten up maybe

A lot of growers have been experiencing issues with FF Happy Frog and Ocean Forrest. Mainly. Buffering the PH. I prefer the FF coco Loco for a bag medium :love_you_gesture:

Hey good evening everyone, hope everybody is okay and well.
I wanted to reach out for some advice and feedback on my 4th grow, gorilla z auto, fastbuds. Same soil set up as in the past 3, mix of ff ocean on the bottom with happy frog mid and some cocoloco at the top.

I’m 81 days into the grow, about 52 days flowering. The pistils are staying white but the buds do seem to be putting on some weight and density. My vgrow app is saying to start flushing but I think she might be at least 1-2 weeks away? Although some of the trichomes looked to be cloudy and some amberish? Could the plant be ready with white pistils still?

Here is the zoomed out plant, unfortunately seems like I had some nute lockout or issue with nutrients but I think she’s coming along better than my first 3 grows?




Thanks for checking and any feedback :call_me_hand::victory_hand:
