Hey all, its nice to have a new home where I don't have to include a sponsors name in the title. I've a few things going on now in a 3x3 and a 5x5 with an 8x3 veg closet......in my 3x3 I'm using Auto Pots for my first time so far so good at 10 days in flower with 4 plants a Sour D, Quebec Blue, Quebec Blast and a
Do si do under a new G3000....I'm feeding Gh nutes + Diamond Nectar at 4/4/4 ml per gal ph'd tp 6.5 ish in Promixd and perlite and clay balls on the bottom with DIY air domes

In my 5 x 5 I've 8 plants @ 5 weeks in flower 2 Gsc , 1 GG, 2 Gelato, & 3 AK47/Blackberry Kush all in promix HP getting fed now at 5 weeks in flower 4/4/10/1 tsp Kool Bloom / 1 ml Flurolicious Plus/ gallon along with 1/2 tbs epsom salts/g when I water

In my veg closet I have 4 clones from the tents flowering girls I lost the tags but they're all growing. I have an almost 4 month old revegged auto in a 3 gal fabric pot that is going to need transplanting soon.....she's going to be a monster....I haven't taken any cuttings yet I'm getting over loaded so not yet and it'll be another month plus before I can flip her. I also have 9 cuts from the girls in my 3x3 about 10 days old now all looking like they're alive and healthy still in the dome getting sprayed twice a day.

I'm on the wrong computer for pics but I'll update when I can with a fresh bunch I'll take today....

Hey pipe I think you are the only one I have seen reveg an auto. I didn’t even think of it as a possibility.

You need any bulbs? I guess winter is over now. Or are you sticking with led year round now?
 
I felt a sigh of relief when posting here too 😆

Quebec blast sounds like it could be a good one.

You still have that auto revegging man? Daaamn. Thought she wouldve been flowering by now.
It is a nice smoke ( last pic) but its the QC Blue I'm really looking forward to. That's the nicest I've grown yet. If I can grow it under led like I did under my 1000w hps I'll be a happy grower. I took 3 cuts off it and they all took. I'd like a tent full.

My revegged auto must be 4 monthsa old now. I haven't taken any cuts off her but there must be 100+ to choose from. Its going to have to wait until I finish with the girls in the my 5x5 before I flip her. She's showing signs of stunting & needs transplanting ASAP...tomorrow. I've been pulling all of the larger leaves in the centre to give her more air but she keeps putting out new branches from the centre where the original small bud formed. I wish I had the weather here to be able to grow her outside and leter grow. I need to gather all of my pics of her to show her progression from ugly bottled dead looking thing with a single root to today in one file

I'm not sure, I have enough led lights and tents now to keep me supplied but next winter it might be just as cheap to use my HPS, I'm adding heat to my tents any ways so wtf. I can count on my hps grows but led's are still fking me up some...I'm getting there but you know it takes me a while to catch on....then I forget so....lol...I'd need a new fixture to run it in a tent but they're cheap enough and available used all over the place because led's are the thing now.......Did you see my question to you on your Myth page....about the Brix%?

Hey buddy I’m still trying to figure the brix thing out with hands on.

My internet is dragging ass this morning but I’ll come back with some pics a bit later.

It’s not as intuitive as I thought it would be. I have not heard from dr green either, love to have him explain it if he has the time.
 
Are you guys using drag and drop maybe? Or the attach files button?
 
nope, I get pic when I drop, then it disappears when I post.....might be my end too. I've adblockers/popup blockers & shit......I'll try stopping them 1 by 1 and see if I can find the culprit or not..

No its not at my end, I shut them all down rebooted Firefox and I get the same icon no image

Maybe being Canadian I go through a watch list filter and it scrubs what it wants then passes it on but someone forgot to clean the filter and it scrambled my signal.......I've seen spy movies....I know what kinds of things the man is capable of.........If google maps is for us then I'll bet they have a record of the type of cheese my wife just cut...... I have a hat made of steel, no flimsy tinfoil for me
 
Ok there is some gibberish on the end of that file name after the .jpeg. This might be a server setting to ignore that stuff. I’ll take a look.
My girls in the 3 x 3 are stretching far more than I anticipated and every day I think they must be finished they grow another 2". I only have the G3000 at 60% but its all they need now.

I'm getting a reaction or something with my nutrients in the reservoir. There's a build up on the circulating pump wire and on the bottom. There is no feel to it when I touch it but I leave a streak behind where I try. When I add more liquid It stirs up and makes everything cloudy for a few min before it settles. The last time ( 2 weeks ago ) I cleaned it the substance left a light brown smear on the cloth. I'm using all GH floral trio and I contacted Gh about using the Floral series in a res tank and they said it will work well in Auto Pots. Although this started immediately when I first started using the pots it doesn't seem to be causing any problems so far.

My 5 x 5 is at 6.5 weeks in flower and last week I gave her back to back watering by mistake so sthey went 14 days between feeds and most of the leaves turned yellow on me much sooner than I'd have liked.....deep sigh....Other than that they're smelling up my house more than I can recall in the past......and I've a month to go....lol...

My Revegged auto I transplanted into a 5 gallon pot and she's taking over a big part of my veg closet. I transplanted my recent cuttings into larger pots this week and I need a bigger boat.....

6 pics attached ...no image on my page

It won't take a copy paste

It looks like it took a drag and drop...edit...I don't get to see the image I just dropped. and it disappeared after I posted it.

Ah ha.....I renamed a pic of 2 of my cats and that pic shows up....So your site doesn't like my file names.....now that I know I can fix that on my end. I'll try a few I've renamed to see if that's the ticket for sure.

Good news ~!
Love your pics.
You may have to 'shrink' them but we can enlarge them to incredible detail.
Those buds look good.(y)

May 8 a beautiful day here in Nova Scotia 21C. We had a car appointment to swap our winter tires to summer & an oil change.$183.99..We just get fleeced at every turn. ah well smoke 5 and....??? heavy sigh....

On a brighter not my girls in the 3x3 in Auto Pots are doing great. I'm feeding them pretty heavy apparently according to others using the pots but my plants aren't complaining and seem to growing very well . My feed now is the GH trio Micro, Grow, Bloom plus (now that they are at almost 3 weeks into flower) Kool Bloom dry ( and now that they're at 3 and in full bloom ) Cal / Mag...Also in soil I use Flurolicious Plus but its to thick and gummy for the Pots valves I'm using Diamond Nectar and for a cleaning agent I'm adding 1ml/L of Hyclean

So in that order I'm feed in ml 5/5/10/ 1/3 tspKB/5CM/ 4DN/1Hy giving me a ph of 6.3 and a 1100ppm......

I've had leaf issues in the past starting weeks 3 & 4 but I didn't catch on until recently their need dire need for Calcium and Magnesium starting weeks 3 - 4 of flower until tapering off with the rest of the nutes when ripening weeks 8 -9 It took a bit for this graph to set in, I hope I got it now.

My 5x5 is a bit sad looking at 8 weeks in flower. I starved the poor things mid way through when I went water water instead of water feed water. They went 14 days without food...ya...another heavy sigh...lol...I smoked 5 remember....

My revegged Auto is out of control and now that I transplanted her into a 5 gallon pot shes getting taller faster, I'm having a hard time keeping her down even with daily bending.

My clones all took and they're all growing well, I'm not sure what I'll do with them all. I'd like a full tent of Quebec Blue and I only have 3 clones on this next run so it will have to be next time. I've clones of Gelato, GG#4,Gsc,Ak47/BlackBerry,Quebec Blast, Quebec Blue, Sour D, Do Si Do. + 3 extra still in solo cups & my revegged Auto I still need cuts from all these are in my veg closet with 2 full tents still at least 2 weeks before the 5x5 will be finished1683575407307.png

Lookin good pipe.

That reveg is hilarious. When you are done with that, we need to put it in it's own thread and sticky it. I don't know if you are the first on this, but first successful one I have seen.
I'll flip it as soon as I have space.....I'd like it by itself in my 3x3 but they won't be done for another 2 months,,,,my 5x5 will be finished first and I'll stick it in there in 2-3 weeks let it acclimatize to the Led's for a week or so then flip her. So I guess that works out to 1 month from now she'll get flipped .

I've a full line of pics from Mom a brother and her still in the water jug where she started...it took a month for the first small white root to stick out the bottom of the stalk. Then into a solo cup and look at her now....lol

Is it still an auto if you have to flip it?

I guess not, it seems I've taken the auto out of her by revegging.....I'm not sure this was a very stable auto....obviously if it's taken to root again.....Some how it got enough light water and nutrients to keep it alive while in the water jug and said fk it I'm going to live....it was sure ugly from the start......8 pm lights out......my cat Qnight and I are out......

I need a drying box and I've been looking for idea's on material to use. First it was cardboard but that's a temporary solution, then Moshman recommended hard board insulation. I went today looking to see what I could get and after all was done I bought 3 sheets of 4x8 1/4 " plywood $100 with delivery I'll use some 1x3" pine boards to frame it. The insulation was just about the same price and it was only in 2x8 sheets.

I'll use a computer fan to exhaust it on the top and passive intake on the bottom & I'll get something to filter the lower intakes Now to get at it and make it before the girls in my 5x5 are done in about 2 weeks. 4 short 4x4" feet to lift it off the cement floor and a small shelf for a small fan .

With the 2 sheets I can cut 3 - 32" x 48 pieces out of 1 4x8' sheet. 1 more and the top and bottom out of the other. I want to make another cat tree out of the 3rd piece.
