where are my trichs.

right now im grow a lot of diff strains. my last couple plants were horrible, hardly any trichs and taste like shit.what am i doin wrong.i know it could be a lot. but for 1 i dontt check my ph. could that cause this

details details

also my plants are crowded 12 plants under 2 150 hps. yea i know

well i think my ploblem started when i swictch soils. i was using fox farms but it got to expensive. so i switched to a cheaper organic soil. i notice that the soil was weak so i just uped the nutes.o i was use fox farm growbig and tiger and i recently bought beastie bloom.i dont follow a feeding schedule i just feed when i think they need it.which may be to much. if anything im overfeeding not underfeeding. and i thouht aslong as my leaves were green my plants were healthy but thats obviously not the case.

could be a variety of problems...

Insufficient lighting, nutes, having light leaks during flower, heat stress, the list goes on.

I think you should rethink your grow. I don't think that's enough light for 12 plants. Also a nute schedule is recommended. You can seriously screw up your grow just going about it willy nilly

You see what you have gotten from your current level of commitment. If you are not willing to put any more effort into your project than what you are now, then you will most likely never get any better results. There is no excuse for not knowing your PH. A PH kit at walmart cost less than the change I have in my couch. If your PH is off it can easily lock out some nutes, possibly the ones the plant needs for trich production.

Bottom line is you have to have some things in check before you can expect any results worth your time, otherwise you might as well take the money your spending and buy it from someone else.

It would be pretty easy to find the info you need to find out whats best for your set up. You need to control...
Temps
Food (ph, schedule)
air flow
humidity
lighting

You might want to add some blue spec compact florescent lights to your set up. The blue spec is mostly used for veg cycle, but in bud they can also help bring out the crystals. There is also a product called snow storm ultra that brings out the trichs, it works like a charm for me.

Heisenberg that was a great balance between being a harsh and being helpful at the same time imo and I am kicking you rep. OP you might be picking the worst time of year to start a grow, temps are a big problem in the summer growers usually shutdown or go half mast during summer.

thx for tough love .heres my new setup i got my babies home now i can take better care and im doing autos.but there is a reason not to know ph. cheap meters dont work. i bought 2 and i always get the same reading.

If it tasted like shit last time you probably gave it too many nutrients.
