Scarlet Grapes in buckets šŸ‡

3x3. I want a bigger tent real bad, but itā€™s not in the cards for a while. I am going to try my hand outside this spring

Looking like they are getting ready to stack up very nicely.

Not grapes. Iā€™m not sure what this was. It may have been a Kasmir x wifi clone from the seed making experiment extravaganza. Itā€™s the only jar that made it out of my last harvest that all got the mold. It looks A+ and smokes real nice

Manifold training for the WMBK. I hope itā€™s not too early. And I still donā€™t know whoā€™s dudes.
The grapes are working their way to flower!

I got maxibloom in yesterday. I still have quite a bit of Jacks left but Iā€™m just not feeling it. Iā€™m trying to decide if I want to switch nutes mid grow or not.

The husband was talking about a 2x4 tent yesterday. So basically, Iā€™m going to start looking and putting together my thoughts on what I want.

I did want to switch nutes mid grow. I also put a new tent in my cart and got these wet. Iā€™ve got an idea I want to try.

Whatā€™s your idea? :eyes:Where you headed to? Hell yeah on the Chernobyl. Havenā€™t smoked it but Iā€™ve read good things!

Iā€™ve also got some grapes above ground a few days ago. Iā€™ll be checking in on what you do with them!

Iā€™m going to try tiny plants. Flip them at 3 or 4 weeks. Iā€™m going to put 4 plants per bucket. When the grapes are done here in 5 weeks and the WMBK are trained up Iā€™ll harvest the grapes and flip everybody to flower.

My only concern is the Chernobyl males that I cull will have roots in with the females and I donā€™t want to damage anything. Iā€™ll keep an eye on it and see what I think

Iā€™ve had fine results with autoflowers throwing 3-5 in a 7g together & once they show sex then after a good watering scooping out the males with about a solo cup worth of soil & replanting in a 1 gallon or together in a larger pot. Its pretty awful for the boys, Iā€™m guessing 80% root loss, but they still make pollen. The girls donā€™t seem to notice the small amount of root damage.

It did end badly once when all 5 in one pot turned out to be girls, and wouldnā€™t stop growing even though the pot was small :laughing: but I suspect they were someoneā€™s labeling error and perhaps were feminized fast photoperiods instead of regular autoflowers. It was pretty ridiculous. :rofl:

If you havenā€™t already seen @BIGJ journal check him out. Heā€™s growing Scarlet Grapes too, but I think one of us is growing the mail mans kid.

Big girl is getting frosty already!

Lol! Had to take a look. Was awesome and amazing to find you both are in hydro the same.

Iā€™ve definitely seen wide variance in plants, youā€™re right its odd to see two go each way, but not too much so. But if you repeat it a couple more times Iā€™ll be wondering whatā€™s up. :laughing:

If you want to play around some, depending on how close to the edge of the optimum range you are, you could try lower light and / or higher humidity / warmer temps / gentler air flow. All those generally promote wider softer leaves. If thereā€™s any room to up your N, your leaves look a little yellow to me, but that could just be the mailman genes :wink: or the lighting.

Thanks for sharing, I always enjoy a good puzzle story in the morning :grin:

Itā€™s the light, rather itā€™s my phone in the light. It doesnā€™t like the reflections from the tent walls and photographs yellow.

Iā€™m in the ā€œoptimum rangeā€. BUT Im very interested in your perspective and options. I donā€™t control for much, honestly. When they are in flower and sweaty Iā€™ll turn on the exhaust. At night Iā€™ll turn it off so they donā€™t get cold when the light goes out.
I wish I knew more about lights. I am always confused by distance and intensity. Im just running them the distance and intensity that seems right.

They are in Maxibloom right now (5-15-14) but they were grown to this point in Jacks (15-5-20). Iā€™m back to the maxibloom as the Jacks and I fight about pH.

Iā€™m not going to say I donā€™t control for temp/ humidity etc. but I donā€™t. My home isnā€™t strictly climate controlled, so the tent does get ā€œvarietyā€. Iā€™ll do my best to keep it from being too cold, or hot and humid, but thatā€™s it.

My problem is, Iā€™m an outside hillbilly vegetable gardener. I will throw a :tomato: whole tomato in a pile of leaves sometime this spring and have all the tomatoes I could want. The last 2 years we had plants grow in the gravel driveway. Like ā€œdonā€™t hit the broccoli pullinā€™ inā€ kind of in the way.

Iā€™m interested in learning and trying something new, but Iā€™m not interested in fussing. :laughing:

Iā€™ve got one of scarlett grapes from @blowdout2269 in Dwc. I use gh nutes. Nothing special. Temps stay around 66-76f. Nothing being done about the water temp.

I have the aero lights from VIVOSUN. One of the 200 hundred and a 100 watt light in there. Gentile breeze going.

We just started flowering this morning.

Hey me too- SG from @blowdout2269 going, and just started showing pistils yesterdayish :grin::green_heart::shamrock:

Except im growing it in a necessarily complicated way, and she dont give a hoot at All as far as i can tell. Getting 500ppm of jacks 20-20-20 and 1g per gallon epsom and gypsum rn. Should i be switching to bloom nutes now, or soon, does (anybody) think? (Shes on the right in the octopup, growin sidelike :arrow_heading_up:)

Iā€™m using general hydroponics nutes also. Been for a few years and canā€™t complain, next few days scarlet and the other ladies will get a much needed lightening upgrade which should kick them into overdrive :+1::+1::v:

I bought a medic grow spectrum x 880 watt that Iā€™ve had about a month or so. And I just purchased the medic grow fold 8. 720 watt full spectrum I caught both on sale. Iā€™ve been running phlizon lights full spectrum older 281b leds. The medic grows have osram and Samsung 301h LEDs. Better lights. Iā€™ve seen noticeable difference since I got the first one
