20After4 A YouTuber recommended that you flip them every once in a while or they’ll get flat spots if it matters. Don’t recall anything else

2steezed That’s a proper run what are some tips
Enzhyme Doing a lot of research and making sure you have the tools to keep you Dialled in. During this run I was always making sure to maintain the correct VPD for each stage, making sure I was getting enough light (DLI) with a PAR meter, making sure my PH and PPM was correct with a Bluelab combo meter and constantly checking my plant issues. If you look thru my post you’ll see that eventually mid flowering ran into issues, having to troubleshoot has taught me so much about growing. Checking to see if my deficiency’s was from under/over feeding, making sure my PH was in balance. Making sure I was giving it the right ratio of NPK/ making sure it got enough supplements of Calcium/Magnesium. Also making sure I considered even the more rare possibilities. Which in the end it ended being root rot because my plants is in a hybrid Soil/Hydro medium with the octopot. Even though I was using hydroguard as a preventive measure I believe that because I didn’t use an air stone or a pump to give it oxygen/ let too much light into the water reservoir that I allowed fungus to grow. This is something I will take into consideration next grow. In general though I would say the best thing a grower can do is constantly be searching the internet reading different opinions and finding out for themselves which way they would like to grow as there is many different ways. Things like training your plant and making sure you have an infrared reader to check your leaf temp are just little small things that add up. Good luck growing my friends

Claw$on215 Whata up I’m a new grower by any chance what did you use cause my plants been looking rough lately lol I like your set up
Enzhyme Ok so I did a lot of research before hand to make sure I knew as much as I could going into my first indoor grow, a lot of this knowledge coming from the several cannabis growing subreddits. But for my grow I settled on using an octopot as a base. If you look into it you’ll see that it is a hybrid system with both a growing medium and hydroponics. So for the medium itself I used Fox farms coco loco which has a mixture of 60% coco coir and 40% perlite which is the recommended mix for the octopot. For the first 30 days I the water I used contained a calcium magnesium supplement, I used a silica supplement throughout the vegetation phase, also Hydro guard to prevent fungus inside of the water reservoir. Around those 30 days once the nutrients of the growing medium were used up by the plant I moved to using Advanced Nurtrients PH perfect when watering. During this time I was also using an RO system for my water and testing both the PPM and the PH of the water. For all of these nutrients I started at 1/4 of the strength of the feeding schedule because they are much more potent when using hydroponics. Slowly increased the amounts as the plant needed it. This was my first indoor grow tho and I did end up getting root rot even tho I used hydro guard but that was my fault. That was the basics in terms of the stuff I used. But I can help you with any questions you have I’ve learned a lot during this first grow.

Although I ended up taking on a lot of issues with the root rot. Using the hydrogen peroxide slowed it down and is gonna let me get to the finish

Even tho bud growth is continuing things are taking a turn for the worse. Realise I have root rot in my hydro reservoir, was hoping hydro guard would prevent it but unfortunately it wasn’t the case. Was trying my hardest to figure out if it I had nutrient burn or a deficiency but it seems it was root rot. Gave it a solution with hydrogen peroxide so hopefully it can bring things back on track

boomerblesi Wow she’s pretty slightly nutrient rich ?
boomerblesi I ment she’s pretty . Is she slightly rich ? Lol
Enzhyme Yea I burned the shit out of here trying to make up a deficiency. Think I stressed her but she’s coming around and the last couple days she’s been growing a lot

Looking a lot bigger after the stretch. Not too happy with how light green the new growth is. Watching Ph and Nutrients very carefully

seriousjamie Once they go through that transition period the new bud site area will look super light like that. I always double up my nitrogen inputs during the first three weeks after the flip.
Enzhyme Ok thanks, I’m using Advanced Nutrients PH perfect which is three parts, they say to use them all equally. I’m gonna try and feed them more of the one with the higher concentration of Nitrogen to see if that helps
seriousjamie You can change those ratios just mix them in order that’s all

Enzhyme It’s hard to see but I did a lot of defoliation underneath. I was reading some stuff tho and I’m not trying to do too much defoliating.

Pottimus Looks awesome, my first attempt at heavy lst is on my page can you give your opinion? It’s the mimosa on day 30 ish
Enzhyme I put in a comment.. you did awesome with your LST. As my sample was being tested I didn’t do any LST in the beginning so I had to do some weird stuff to make the canopy even. My next grow I’m gonna be more prepared cause I’m gonna use Feminised seeds. I really thought I thought them in the first place lol
Pottimus Sounds awesome and stuff happens for sure

Finally gave the plant a little taste of the advanced nutrients. Also did a little more LST as we head towards the flip
3 months ago
Day: 55
Not the prettiest look but the LST should fill out the tent a little more.
3 months ago
Pottimus Definitely had a comeback, looks good, I’m new to growing but why not throw a trellis in there
Pottimus I bet you could fill the whole tent if you Scrog it
Enzhyme I am actually gonna flip in a couple days, when that starts I’m gonna put my scrog net in so that it has support for when it starts stretching.

donquinto More training! Die her down everywhere. 90° bends, she needs to fill as much space as possible. Height will come during floder
Enzhyme Your right I’m gonna do some training today
donquinto Good luck! Don’t go too easy on her. She can handle it. Really pull them down, the small ones should be freed. All the larger growth, PIN ‘er!!!

seriousjamie Issue?
Enzhyme It’s mostly fixed but I had messed up and bought regular seeds. Didn’t want to move it to the octopot until I got back the sex from the lab I sent samples too. Unfortunately it got a nitrogen deficiency but the new growth is fine and it’s working itself out
seriousjamie Do you need seeds my man?

Pottimus What’s your setup and strain?
Pottimus Looks like it could use some more water too
Enzhyme Hey Pottimus, the Strain is Grape Dragon F2 by 7 east Genetics. I have an AC infinity 3x3. I’m growing inside of an octopot with coco loco. With the octopot you only top it once and the roots find their way to the water reservoir so it essentially waters itself. Because coco loco has nutrients in it I’ve only added silica blast, cal mag and hydro guard to my water. You can see my next update it seems the roots have found the water better.
Day: 37
Over night the plants have already started to bend in the right direction. Maintaining an even canopy is my goal. There have been some major hiccups because of the sexing issue but I believe we are overcoming them. Might have to veg longer but that’s fine

Was a perfect time to unleash the Combo meter. Tomorrow I will set up the Ph part of it but figured I would test the Tap water and the RO water. Like I thought, my tap water is a little hard so the RO should be a great help.

Just a quick example of how well the RO works

Finally got the PAR meter. Like I expected, I was running at way too intense of a light level for the seedling stage. I might have some slight PH lockout I can only wait until this water in the medium evaporates so I can give it the correct solution.

Enzhyme Tree laughed at me and said my shit was gonna be regs after cracking up at the Quantum PAR meter. I’m still dying laughing

Early morning Day 7, the cup still had weight so no need to water. Coco coir holds water like crazy. We’ll check on her later and see how she’s grown.

We are locked in a at an appropriate temp for the seedling as it spends its first day under light. Humidity will be raised once the RO system gets set up.

Gary got a little wild decided he need to plant the germinating seed into solo cup asap. Opened up the first of many bags of coco loco and filled up a cup. Poked holes in the bottom, planted the seed gave it some water, and put a little wrap on top to maintain that moisture. Hopefully the coco loco doesn’t run hot enough to burn the seed. Only time will tell

Day: 1
Being handled with the utmost care, the seed has started germinating in a wet paper towel, put into an opened ziploc bag. Soon it shall be moved once its strong enough to the red solo
