The Upward Spyral

[Uncle Romulus]

No doubt it works. I just don’t want to waste what I already bought. Luckily it was all on the cheap, deals etc. Maybe the house plants will get some additional love. I’ve got some touching the sealing already. Kinda a jungle but I love them so it’s all good. Summer is a pain in the ass though. It’s getting cold up here already. Not like north of the border but pretty chilly out there. Great for indo gardening folks!

Man MC is good.. but I need the new version as I’m noticing cal mag deficiency.
If you can still get pure blend pro where you are at for a decent price I’d just keep running that. That’s been my fave so far only very hard for me to find and expensive shipping. I absotootly love pure blend pro grow all the way through with just a touch of added pk once or twice

Man Unc, I’d hook you up fat if you were close. I scored five gallons of it and five of bloom plus vitamino and a bunch of other new unused stuff and like 50 clone trays and domes for 40 bucks. I knew it was a good deal and didn’t need it but couldn’t pass it up either.

I hate you right now man.. I wish man. I have to pay a fortune for it here. MC is good tho.. but I love pure blend so hard mang

That’s ridiculous. Let me see what I can do for you, I don’t need it all.

Begin Week 2 of Flower

SW = Sunset Wedding
PB = Punch Buggy/Purple Crash
​

Sunset Wedding #3 in the back right, biggest and most vigorous plant of the bunch by a long shot. Punch Buggy #3 in front catching up. I noticed that the plants directly under the Viparspectra "Reflector" Series (the black/gray ones) weren't doing as well as the "PAR series" ones, so I turned on the Veg switch. We're pushing up on max against this breaker so I'm treading lightly, otherwise I'd turn on the blues on the PARs too.
Surprisingly, the plants directly under the CMH and COBs are the smallest ones, but they were the last ones to be popped and are behind the others by about a week. Pushing silica instead of cal mag for this week.

Begin Week 2 of Flower - pics are a bit limited because it's getting crowded in this tent. Gonna need to get creative on angles soon

BA = Black Abyss
SI = Space Invasion



SI = Space Invasion
GW = God-O-War


​

This is a 2 week veg in 5.5" square pots (over half gallon). Still haven't been able to get a definitive sex to them yet. About 1-1/2x the tote height (14") so almost 2 ft tall.

One week difference -



Where are the vent flaps and the hydroton?

 

[spyralout]

Something we've never experienced before

Is this the plant "topping itself"? It looks like a little flower or something in the V.

Some closeups in an attempt to determine sex (1 week after flip) [@Jesselikes2Grow]. Apologies for the not so great pics. All regs from @Phylex.

 

[Texagonian]

Too hard for me to tell bro. Give them another week and you should know for sure who’s Bruce’s and who’s Betty’s. Looking healthy mang!

 

[spyralout]

This is a one day difference. Sunset Wedding #3

Yesterday (in the back)


This morning


Side shot

The zip tie is still on the main. I removed them from all the plants because the growth exploded, expanding and growing out/around the zip ties. It will look even more different tomorrow.

Third pic from the bottom is the only one I can see well enough to say it's a boy for that one.
It helps to get the camera to focus better if you get your finger right there pointing at it. They're just too fuzzy in the other pics that zooming in didn't help.

Good tip. I'll buy that ET finger and use that lol. Ok what makes you think it's male? Need to see what you're seeing

When i was trying the zip ties i had to reset them just about every day. I am thinking @Jesselikes2Grow is correct but again a bit hard to see. Man you hydro guys . That is incredible growth for 2 weeks of veg.

Did you see a difference with the zip ties?

Ok I think this is the same plant. It's so hard getting closeups, I need a better camera

 

[Phylex]

What kind of phone are you using? I agree with Jesse about being unclear or too fuzzy to tell when zooming in. But #4 from the bottom looked like the potential male through the fuzz. Too hard to be certain though.

I see in that 4th from bottom pic that spot on the right I was wondering about this too

Yes it most definitely works you just have to be persistent with it. My girls would find a way to bust thru each day. If i remember right it took a week or so during the stretch to see the other branches catching up in height.

Those dingle berries are looking pretty manly.LOL

I may try slipping the ties back on. All of the growth in the middle was smushed like a huge pre flower lol. I think they're about to hit overdrive. 40 PPM drop with steady or slightly rising pH per day - hungry - need to raise the nutes a bit. See if we can hit that sweet spot.

I’m not sure about cameras or how they work on other devices. If it was an iPhone, I had some potential tips for getting in closer.

That’s the one. Hard to tell in the pic, but it’s looking like it’s most likely male.
