I flipped to flower on 2-7-2020 just completed week 6 of flower and i cant tell if my buds are growing at normal pace or something is wrong? I feel like for this stage they should be more connected but looks like i have a lot of gaps in between the flowers. is this normal? I was told this is San Fernando OG strain " got 8 clones from a friend " On 3.12.2020 i did some good amount of trimming to expose more of the mid buds to light and after that they started not to eat as much as they... Help! buds not fattening?

Okay, so my TDS meter showed up today and I did a quick test of my nutrient mix. It showed a PPM of 254 (which I assume works out to .508 EC?). Now, I had a chart that said the recommended 200-400 for the first week (I'm still in seedling stage). My question is, do I measure the water, "pre-nutrient" then add the nutrients until the readings equal the 200-400, or do I get the base number and add 200-400 to it?

My first try at DWC bubble, 2nd water change out and I have root rot. Using Hydroguard from beginning. Cleaned everything with HP, was mostly sterile environment. Two pumps and three air stones. Lined tub with black neoprene, using neoprene net cup covers, no light issues I can see. Any ideas? Do I have to start over? Can I cut the root rot off? Can I add more hydroguard over suggested dosages? Should I spray HP on the roots? Help! Thank you, JimC April 01, 2020 at 01:46PM Read more about this fix

If I plant on growing in 100% perlite wha size pot would I need for 10 week veg and 10 week flower? can I get away with 20 weeks of growth in a 2-3 gal pot Without yield loss or should I bump up pot size? I am done with coco tek nute Aline they turn rancid to fast and had bad luck switching to sesi coco line so far veg line works great and I can leave it out for days before it gets that pond smell even in direct light April 01, 2020 at 12:45PM Read more about this fix
