The 5 gallon buckets to me is the easiest. If I need something to hold on to. Plus when I start to cage them up. It gives me more room to work with. The buckets last a long time. These girls are just over the 3rd week of flowering. The one under the HLG 100r is on week 2. I did at ice keep water in a large supply. I stopped that. Tap water works great. I don’t know. It earlier for me to feed every day. So I don’t do the all at once. With buckets I know how much liquid to give them with out over watering. I do get two inches in the trays. I running rh at 65 right now. I’m not worried about mold. I neem them down every other week. Never past 6th week. I’ll be back

Hello. My update. I have the girls caged up now. I’ll do some more trimming over the next week.
I don’t do much training. I’m new at it. I do grow them big and fat. But I need to learn how train better.

Just started week 4 of flowering. I will push for ten weeks. I’ll start with the bamboo tomorrow or a few days from now. I’ll spend them out some.

I have nets but it’s hard for me to do it myself. I always break more than I need to.

So I’m thinking I have two grapes.
I love Alaskan fish food fertilizer and Neptune. I will use those only during vegetation. The powder is I have I’ve never mix in the soil . I always top. With any of the organic dry mix you need to be careful when you start flushing. I really don’t do too much flushing I do have sledgehammer. I just run water several days back to back. Alcohol flushing is when you really flush. If I have a 5 gallon pot I will flush it with 5 gallons of water. Use a shop vac. They come in very handy. You just want to make sure that you keep the filter changed on a regular basis. Because fungus will build on the filter. I don’t really start my plants on the 12 and 12. I do 13 from the flip. I don’t wait no 36 hours. Once a week I start knocking the minutes down. Right now they’re running a little less than 12 hours. You may say what is the miracle grow for. That is a savior. And I will only use it only in certain circumstances and only at a certain time of flowering. Not for the grow. I am not a miracle Gro person I don’t mind putting it on my grass outside. You have to be real careful it has boron. But there is a certain time in the flowering stage if you read your ingredients you were adding boron

I was big on Dr. earth. The only problem with Dr. earth it does have bugs. If someone tells me that they do not I can tell you it does cause I’ve seen them in the bag. I use molasses. Molasses is great. I use it for several different things. When you water with molasses it makes your soil honey. It will get hard on top. That is what I want. So when I start putting the neem oil on the tops of the dirt. It gives you a good barrier it allows The oil to soak into the top part of the soil. So when you start your next watering it runs down in the plant. And you want to see oil in your drain pan. I’ll even spray some in the drain pan after I feed so it’ll soak it up. These are mine grows. I am learning. But I also have a lot to teach. I don’t really get into the scientific part of this because there’s no need in it. You can make this as hard as you want or you can make it as easy as you want. I seen somebody use the word kiss. Keep it Simple stuff

One thing about Dr. earth if you leave it on your soil without mixing it will mold. And if it is touching your stalk and you have a weak spot. You will rot
I’m having great results from HLG 100r . Nice lights. You can’t beat the board.

The reason for 13 is I like to start off with bad luck. I’ll have to cut back ( when I started the seeds I didn’t know how good they were going to be they pop right away I hated to throw them away and I wasn’t sure how many I would have live.) on the small ones. 8 max. I’m not 100% sure what the small ones are. I’ve had a few bad runs this year. I started with eight seeds. They just happen to be in a sack. They all came up. I believe they were all female. I hit it hard. I made two cloning machines. Got lights. Got big lights. Leds 7 or less. Everyone had mixed emotions. I even remember we sent lights back. These were the nice ones that came out of California. The people I was with were test them out. We would run tents. I never really understood why. If you’re going to grow in a room with two 1000 W why put them in a tent. So my first round. Was looking great. Nice. I was even bragged on about how good they look. There was a few things I forgot about blue lights. Lights coming into the room good I didn’t think was any big deal because we had lights coming in our other rooms when I grew before so I didn’t think a little bit of a light with hurt any thing. I was dead wrong I even started with miracle grow dirt because I couldn’t get Fox Farm or happy frog in my area. The closest store they went $40 a bag for happy frog . I have found it cheaper. What I’m getting at I haven’t had the best luck this year so I’m hoping to have a very nice product. I have been real skittish because of my second round. Just about lost everything because I was doing to most experiment. The main things are checking your pH. I refused to do so I had already spent so much money to even get it started. If I had went with LEDs from the get go things would’ve been a lot better. I have a lot to learn and you guys are here to teach me I have to take baby steps right now

I had a chance to get a couple of those and I passed big mistake. I have the BP 4000 and a 192. I’ll pop them little small ones around where they needed. HLG you cannot beat the light no doubt about it I’ve seen too much from it. Don’t get me wrong Mars Spider Farm are good. HLG are the best.
