Madmax growing with Dragons Flame Genetics

uno the only place I see them is on my plants or at the back door when outside porch light is on along with tarantulas feeding on the mozzies and moths..I better get the pots ready for transplant.sucks up potting them when they starting to get going.I gotta do it .it’s a good sign when the girls are drinking all there waterand pots are light when light comes on.they picked up because of moving the rh higher.at lower rh they drink more nutes than water and pots were staying reasonably heavy.that has completely changed now . Feed is 500 ppm ph 5.90-5.95 60ppm of calimagic..got some more coming.getting hard to find it now. so I purchased a gal ..that should last me awhile.😃

So an increase in moisture in the air got them to take up more water? I would've thought the opposite. Low RH being nute heavy on take up? Again, I would think water would be what they want to replenish before they take in nutrient.
 
yes ..increased my air vpd

your right 100% dude.I don’t know what the hell I was talking about Lmao.that was this piss talking there or the other max that’s on here every now and then .he’s back under his rock 🤣🤣🤣.but after reading I think I know what the other max was on about is by upping the rh the vpd is better and plant is drinking more to suggest the plants are transpiring more.it is wierd though when you look at a vpd chart it wants you to run low vpd ( high rh ) which slows the movement the of nutrients exactly what you said roots..fucked if I know 😆

The girls looked a little down bud that made me look into the vpd to see where they were and see if I can get them looking better.I don’t really follow it cause when I do I seem to get mold .the sooner I get them flowering the better.get this light cranked up to 100% and get the room exchanging air more frequently..will up pot tomorrow so they can make there own rh instead of having the humidifier in there.I seem to run the room better without it.get things back to normal lol.it’s funny it feels like it’s going to b a shit grow cause that’s how I feel about right now.give it a month and I’ll b like what we’re you worrying about max.
I need a boost or a break..

I ordered a gallon a month ago... lost in the mail. I had to order another gallon that was 15 bucks more now and it should arrive early this week sometime.

Hopefully you get this one bud.I got mine rocking up this week.just for a litre it’s about 60 odd bucks..this was 140 for a gal.you guys get it way cheaper than that..pretty sure I looked on one of your sites it was 29 bucks..

Yeah I threw it onto an Amazon order for 40 bucks, but I only paid 25 for the one that got lost.

I've got enough for a few res changes but not enough to get through this whole grow.
 
Up potted and flicking the switch over in the morning .I’ll wait a couple days then I will top them and start pulling the lower fan leaves and cleaning up bottom growth and branches.give them avweek and they should b looking good.rh isn’t up yet but once those roots start filling into those bigger pots and drinking more I will take that humidifier out and turn on the dehuey..the show will start in 14 days so get your tickets early 😀
 
I’m really interested in the fire og x Mac moonshine Jeff.that one inspires me.wonderful colouring.that dude sure knows how to grow…when will that one b released I’ll get a couple pks.I’ll most likely use some smash cards and send the dna away to find out there sex…but before I jump I’ll wait to see what the grower says on the yield..they do look a decent size..wonder what the smoke potency is and the terps.

Just had a peep of the girls before the light was to come on in veg and they are all perked up waiting..bar one.they must b thinking what the hells going on .they are going to love that extra 6 hrs rest in flower…when I up potted all roots looked fine even on the girl that’s sad.I dunno what’s up with her.if she don’t pull her fingers out I will replace her with the spare Zamal dreams..she’s smaller ,lighter but healthier..I have her in the corner on a pot stand I made..the stand needslonger legs and I havnt the steel here to lift it up….now I know what I had to do today 🤦 and the days gone..lol.maybe tomorrow..if I remember..
 
Well what an improvement that extra 6 hrs has done..even saggy Sarah front middle is perking up.🤩.ph is rising now and very close to turning on the dehu…rh gets to 59% before fan comes on and brings that back down to 51 so I will keep checking every half hr to see if it increases.lights at 100% now…like I have mentioned before having the light at 450w 18/6 and now 600w is no difference in the dli only in the intensity so it will b a smooth transaction from veg to flower…I better check the leaf temps when I go back out too..I need another fan 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬.geez I’m getting sick of this.I’ll end putting a big fan Anthem has on a track somehow so I can slide it up or down the wall.just need one that doesn’t blow a gale in there….vid.

pretty crap day here so I’ve had to turn the dehuey on earlier .usually its warm enough throughout the day I don’t have to turn it on till the evening..but its 17 deg right now .when lights on finishes I turn the temp on inkbird down 4 deg c and usually it will stay above that..exhaust fan is plugged into that and and is turned down on fan controller so it doesnt drop the temp in there quickly and in turn keeps the rh around 50-51,but today it’s cool so temp dropped quickly the rooms not getting warm enough so the rh climbs even with a 4ft 200w bar light can’t keep it above 22 ..rh got to 60 so I caught it just in the nick of time and turned the dehuey on.tomorrow temps go back to 23-24 c so I will b able to have the dehuey off till dark.save on power..plants are really good .perking up right to lights off.light is 32’ away.I will let these ones stretch abit as they are pretty short.got the node count up with ea plant having 18-20 branches so I can think about topping now…

They’re looking Awesome. Some big fans on them. Nice and bushy.
 
yeah this strain certainly throws out nice big fan leaves.I will start taking them off soon starting from the bottom and taking off some lower branches that won’t do much..
Nice and short is how I like them and this lumatek led fixture tends to keep most strains short plus I upped the mono silic in veg to keep them more squat as I was intending to veg them an extra week but if they get any bigger it will turn into a jungle in there more than ever.they were looking a little down in veg but they certainly came alive in flower.

Beginning of day 4 .first bit of maintenance done..topped them and cleaned up the bottoms.seems they are short there wasn’t many lower dud branches to take .I will leave them alone for abit just gradually taking the big fan leaves off.they should like the extra air getting up there skirt now..rh has picked up now and keeping the ship steady at around 55% give or take.😃.

Going on a few years now easily.pretty much set and forget Zen….I love it 💪..ive tried running it closer at a 100% soon as I put them in flower they will tacoe abit only cause I’m going from 315cmh to 630 watt..so when I can i will give them acweek at 450w last week of veg with the light at 36’ then at 630 in flower same height and they love it.I just let them grow to the ligh…by the time stretch has finished they are around 24’ away which is there sweet spot..so I’ve been sticking to that as my best grow are at that distance.I could run closer but yield and health of the plants is great so there’s no need to tinker.I’m one of those guys …if it isn’t broken don’t fix it…I’ve been wanting to get the light you have for veg..how short is it keeping your girls..
