Hi Everyone, I haven't been on the forum in more than a week. Work ha been hectic. The three plants are happy, the PO and WW popped up on day 4, the Trumps only surfaced on day 7, but its stalk is much thicker than the other 2. The WW stretched a little, so I just put a box under the pot to get it closer to the light which seems to have solved the problem. I have been watering daily around the plants, not at the base as advised. Seems to be working well. I will load some pictures over the weekend on the progress. I have also added some Alfalfa ground covering yesterday, I am sure it will help with moisture and also for nitrogen replacement after crushing them into the soil when the plants start to flower.

Thank you for the advice, yes I currently measure the LUX output on the canopy of the plants, it reads 4500, I believe this is ideal? I have a de-humidfier running currently at about 60%RH. LST is all I am going to do once the plants are around node 5.

Epic advice, mind blown, thanks.

Those are the facts right there, thank for for the info.

Perfect, thanks for the advice, gonna get some. White widow and purple have broke the surface already. Will post pictures on Saturday again.

Thanks, I thought as much. Just gonna try harder with this next run. It was a weird plant growing different and it had a genetic foxtail bud formation. Mutations in the leaves some only 3 leaves and this one tiny crooked leaf. But heres the question. Can I medicate on it like smoke it? Any negative aspect to it?

And buds look super skinny and weird now.

Hi guys please confirm what this could be. 6 or 7 on different buds. They only started coming up on 5th day of drying. Buds have also shrunk by 60% at least, not sure what I did wrong here, harvested when trichomes started going amber.

And buds look a bit uglier than they did after 5th day of drying

Hi guys please confirm what this could be. 6 or 7 on different buds. They only started coming up on 5th day of drying. Buds have also shrunk by 60% at least, not sure what I did wrong here, harvested when trichomes started going amber.

Watering the plants daily with syringe in the middle, when dry, the little heater is drying cupboard to 49% RH. Not sure what's more important, good ambient temp or RH around 60%? Any suggestions? I am also trying to keep the tops moist with spray bottle of PH balanced water. I researched that living soil need to stay moist top otherwise the microbial lay dormant and don't recover. Can someone confirm.

Hi everyone, maybe it's because I am stoned, but how do I update my grow diary, do I reply to the post or what? I wanted to update with info and ask a question on the post, but it seems to reflect as me replying to my own post. Please help. Need to document the grow well.

Amen man. I have grown girl scout cookies on my first run, will be interesting to see the difference between that and this cookie strain, that's the only reason why I took on Trump, good to have a comparison, and they also don't give THC % just say extremely high, so wanna smoke that shit. Always wanted to see widow up close and personal, so can't wait, purple opium can't find grow pictures anywhere on this strain, have no freaking idea what to expect. Fucking love these plants.

Hi, Yes indeed I am, this will be my first run doing LST, i have watched enough tutorials and done enough reading to finally trust myself and give it a go, still stressed as its new to me, but I am sure once I have done and seen it first person, I will have more confidence to do it again next time.

Hi guys, interesting article about these concerns... https://www.healthline.com/health/allergic-to-marijuana

Hi, Thank you, really looking forward to it for sure, just holding thumbs that I can keep the temp reasonable, currently balancing it at 22 degrees, but losing some humidity due to that. De-humidifier in the room shows 61%, but cupboard 43%. Yes they are all feminised, This is only my third run in total, so just playing it "safe" at the moment. I will start playing around with Photoperiods next summer when our new house is finished being built.

Hi Everyone, So I planted 3 plants yesterday. Please follow this journal and give feedback an advice. I would like to get them to harvest, heavy. Below I will give as much info pertaining to the grow, please let me know if I should add something Plants - Purple Opium Auto (Divine Seeds) - White Widow Auto (Marijuana SA) - Trumps Cookie Jar Auto (President Seeds) Grow Light is Lunar 1000W Full Spectrum LED light, my light cycle through the whole grow will be 20h light / 4h Dark if Eskom allows it. I will be growing all three in living soil mix and adding Calcium Nitrate at certain intervals. RH will be kept between 55 and 60% and temperature will stay between 19 and 25 degrees Celsius. I am currently growing in a closet space as our new house is currently still being built and want to scope out tent spots and the size I require before investing in that. I will keep the journal updated on a weekly bases and I really look forward to everyone's comments and advice to get these 3 girls to a heavy harvest.

Just to be sure, once I follow the link, I just "Start New Topic"? and then keep updating the feed?

Thanks a Mil. Gonna quickly do it properly.

Awesome thanks.

Hi Everyone, might be a stupid question, but must I edit my grow diaries when adding new content or just comment on the post? Not entirely sure about this one, so for example, when the start breaking ground and I at dates and pictures, where do I do that?

Hi guys, I know this is a stupid question, but haven't tried it yet, and all online info just tells me how to do it, but I want to know, does one, and if yes, when does one remove the anchor holding the stem down when doing LST on Autoflowers? Or do you just leave it until harvest? I should be starting my next 3 grow diaries in a week or 2 and just wanna get some clarity on the LST.

LOL, yeah, the Title seems a little dirty hey. Was a good piece of my learning material.

Thank you for this information, I have had a quick read on the study that was done, Freaking amazing. I am surely gonna invest more time into this topic. Thank you.

Is there any reading material I can look at on how one can estimate what the outcome would be if two strains are combined, Like is there a specific algorithm to work from, or is it trial and error, is there a way to predict the outcome?
