I'm making a hybrid of the two strains I have, forbidden cookies and Gorilla Glue #4. Now that I've learned not to burn my plants to death with distilled water I'm trying something a little different given I have this option.
I googled this question but couldn't find anything. Instead of drying the pollen sacs individually can I hang dry the whole plant like with female plants or will it ruin the pollen? It's right before the point where all the sacs open and I want to save it.
I am switching to a 5 gallon fabric pot next time. I am currently using a TidyCats 4.5 gallon bucket that I cleaned before using. Thought it would be a cool way to reuse them. Hard to say if the size is enough since I've been messing it up with the water and locking it out. The light I'm using...
So I just got done testing the new gallon of distilled I got and got a ph of almost 5. The one I tested previously was literally perfect 7 so it seems like they vary greatly. So I apologize to you for challenging you on that because you were right. Tap water still tests out to be neutral.
This is from just now. The power was just out for like 10 mins because my apt's power just flickered. Keep in mind that the shadows that show in these pictures are not actually there, my phones camera is scuffed and kept putting these black lines across.
Thank you so much for this post. I am so upset by the responses to this post in general. I thought having the whole history would help, and that people would be able to read that it's an entirely different plant. Clearly I was wrong and I should have started a new post. This was just me...
I didn't add anything. It's just FFOF soil and I use distilled water only. That comment was made about the previous plant which went to hell. This picture is of the next grow like I said.
I have good lighting just looks weird because I used flash on my phone. So here I am at the first sign of deficiency on the next grow. Do I add flora micro to the distilled water for nutes? Also this is a newbie forum so I thought I would feel more comfortable here but some of you guys are...
The buds are still growing I'm watching it everyday. I gave it a 3/4 dose of Flora Micro and Cal Mag just for shits and giggles. Yes I messed up but this is much better than nothing. :D
Plus I have the 3 week old plant that I have to start looking out for signs of nutrient deficiency lol.
To test the ph I have to top water and I capture the runoff somehow? I'll have to research how to do that. I'm used to just bottom watering with a tray I put under the pot and I pour more in until the soil is slightly moist every few days.
I started looking into it but got overwhelmed. Bought some garden lime and alfalfa but I'm not very good at diagnosing what it needs more of in the first place. Also autos grow in such a short timeframe, is top dressing relevant?
I should have added more dirt once it started to go down cause...
