La Diva Grow... 1st time using autos...

Thanks guys...

Raiderman i using sunshine mix#4 and roots organic. Ended up doing a 60/40 mix ratio instead of 80/20.

good mix. i use ocean forest and perl. 75/25.. but i'm switchin to happy frog no perlite next gro.

I hear good things about happy frog. Let me know how it works out....

i'm using some new stuff on half of my gro now of some canadian mix thats real airy,thats wat i go for,its like happy frog,but HF has food in it thats for weed.

Yea the roots organic has a little bit of food in it also.

On another note.... i added a small 4 inch duct booster i had laying around. Only 65 cfm but i figure it will help a little... ill snap a pic later...

Howdy...808 the girls are looking awsome . Speaking of f#@%ing up ganja, I had to go out yesterday and do an emergency RUBYdectomy. I walked out side on
a stale day and could smell her a few houses up, opps. So I had to blow off hanging her up to dry and stick her straight in jars. Im rolling and burbing the jars every chance I get but its all I can pull of with my current set up. I cant use scrubber and inline fan due to making to much noise. Any way she smells like a skunk sprayed a blueberry patch....goodluck

I got a La Diva freebie from Attitude that I have been growing. It's been growing for 50+ days now on a 20/4 light scedule. It's about 20" tall, and it has some visible trichs on the buds and the sugar leaves. It has the smell of berries and cream right now. I think that's a pretty good description of the smell right now. It's not very overpowering like some strains though. I think I will get about an Oz off of her. I'm starting to get anxious to see how she smokes. All in all I think that I would grow this again in the near future. I like this strain because you can grow this as an in between strain. Meaning that you can grow this in between your regular photoperiod strains and get a harvest out of it while you wait on them.

Damn bobhoop... thats crazy. The smell must be awesome and dank. Good luck with staying on top of those jars. Burp away!

Good to hear ur girl is doin good there kentucky boy. Keep it up!

this thread covers the whole U.S.

What up raiderman. Yea i think we got it covered.... i used to live all over the states and had to adapt some growing techniques to different areas and circumstances. Its always fun to see other peoples methods. I love it. Cheewhooo!

Here's that pic of the duct booster. It was blowing pretty good this morning. We shall see how it does when i get home. If this don't work then i will have to put that inline fan in. Let me know what you all think... quick fix for now. Lol

lookin pro already.good job.

you know i try... lol.

im thinking that since my light fixture is almost the width and length of my tent, its not allowing any of the warm air to rise naturally. Kinda the reason i put the ducting all the way down and squeezed it the corner (try and suck up some of the warm air). I didnt use any bends either. straight shot all the way out. More efficient use of the fan i think. I was initially going to run it from the bottom but it would have required some bends in the ducting therefore restricting some air flow. I also put a small fan at the bottom of the tent blowing air upwards. hopefully this helps a bit. Ill see what the temps are when i get home.

yea the venting brings in fresh co2 in the room .plants use it up fas and needs replenishing.yure gettin the science down .

Yea i opened the vents at the bottom of the tent to let some fresh air in. Sort of making it a passive system.

Speaking of CO2... anyone try those EXHALE CO2 producing bags? jus curious to see how well they work for a small grow room...

co2 levels usually high in tropics.

hmmm... didnt know that! Learn something everyday...

O yea any tropical climate is considered perfect conditions.. i'm in texas and its high here also..its from the heat.

anyone got advice on when to start LST for autos... I usually wait till my photoperiod plants are close to a foot (maybe 10 inches) before i start. However, i know autos will probably start flowering before getting that tall. Any suggestions?

i have an auto kush ryder ,its 5 inches high and a couple flowers,lol.
