This is kinda my 2nd grow. Cops busted us last time 2 years ago when plants just hit flower.

This is my first grow that I'm doing totally myself.

About the smell, damn.. if it gets out of control funky in there, I need to get filter there. What do you think about my plants at this point of the flower? It's 3rd week going. Buds looking allright in size? I really want to see those babies fatten up alot in the upcoming weeks.

Peace.

dude ur gonna have monsters you got 5 weeks left atleast.i blew this run i'll prolly get like 3-4 lbs.i fixed my problem yhough so the next run im settin a 5 lb. goal.i should make it.bro get a filter its a good investment,that link i put up a while ago will tell you what size u need for ur room size and everything.im tellin you bro you'll sleep better at night knowin you got ur bases covered.especialy if you already had a grow busted,bro dont be foolish.think about it like this...what would you do if you walked past somewhere everyday and it smelled like weed everytime,fresh weed.you'd wanna know where its comin from-maybe even try to find it and snatch it idk...but what if you didnt smoke bud? it might be some old lady/man or a dam do-gooder,they'll call the law yo.and you know it.so spend the lil few hundred for a fan and filter and get some good sleep in the next 5-6 weeks.instead of being p-noid and kickin urself in the ass for not ordering it.since your first grow got knocked you really have no idea of the smell that you have coming ur way.like i said its worse when its drying.listen or dont bro,you'll see.im just tryin to let you learn from my mistake.thats what we're all here for to help/get help and give a lil advice when we can.and make some cool ass friends that love to do what we do.peace bro -Y-

ps:GET A FILTER YO!

Yo.

I need some help so I figured I'd come here. I'm going hydro, using Aeroflow 12, some people say it's not aero, it's nft. I don't know, can't tell. Does someone know? It's a shortened version of aeroflow 14. :D

I bought AHH set, liquid silicate for the roots, pH and ec-meters and pH down.

My plants been looking too yellowish and they could be healthier so I'm going flush all of em today. I was thinking about flushing with mild nutrient solution. I usually put 4-5ml/1L, is 2ml/1L ok when I flush? I also bought Neem oil, can I use it for flowering plants or will I get mold or some negative karma off it?

Y, I'm going to get that filter ASAP, it's starting to get little funky..

If you have been busted by the cops once you might want to take a couple things into consideration. One, lower plant #s = less stress. You can achieve great yields with low plant counts in almost any medium. The second is smell, since you have been busted before I can't imagine why you would even hesitate to get a couple carbon filters in there and an ozone outside the room. IF you are short on cash I would suggest investing in an ozone gen and a timer. You can place it outside your grow space on a timer and it will "help" with the smell. Your room will not hold it in, unless it is airtight.

The safer your grow is, the more time you can concentrate on the overall health of your garden. Next grow give your plants a couple 2-3 weeks more veg and develop an even canopy under which your plants can flourish. The best growers on IC all have nearly zero light penetration at the end of a harvest on the ground... all the light is used... all the space is used.

Keep posting, keep learning and you will be teaching. Welcome to IC... GROW ON!

Thanks for the support guys, means alot. :)

Anyways, I'm about to reset my soil. There's been other problems than N too, but it's hard to tell from pictures because the light shows them all as the same colour. I wanna start fresh, since I know I been slacking a little, and I really wanna put effort to final weeks of the flowering. Does reseting, as in flushing with mild nute solution, stress the plant? I hope to get really quick answer, because I got my water ready and all.

That was trippy, I just smoked my wake & bake and went to garden getting ready to water when I hear helicopter going somewhere really close. All my windows are tinted so I can't see outside and I didn't want to go outside if someone spots me so I couldn't see was it a medic helicopter or police or what.. well, I got paranoid, waited till the noise left, jumped on car and drove away to a stealth location where I could spot if any police cars go there, because it's the only driveway there. As I parked my car there my pulse was like 200, then I started to chill a bit and think about how baked I was and maybe I over-reacted, as usual. Well, played it safe, sit there awhile, listened to radio, no traffic, now I'm back. Hopefully it was nothing. I'd like to move grow location as this ain't stealth enough, I want the closest neighbours like 5km away from me.. and lots of land.. U know what I'm talkin about. :D

I'ma smoke one and chill a bit, come check for answers about my flushing. It's my first time flushing.

Does it stress plants?
Is 10%-25% strenght solution of the normal feeding small enough?
10L buckets -> 30L water, right. 1:3?

Brb.

idk about the stress yo,if anything i'd say it would set you back a couple days at most.
you need to not go work stoned bro.i'd get noided too but even more if i was lifted on some racy herbs.i like to be somewhat strait when i do what i do,too many stupid errors and bad calls when i was first starting and workin stoned,like"how many tsp.was that?" or some other stupid shit.and dude if the copter was for you,you'd have never made it outta there the chopper woulda been all over you.lol i know you was stoned haha.be safe bruh peace-Y-

MaryUWannaPixie, sorry but I don't know what U mean by tutes so can't give you an answer. :p

Y, yea, not to go stoned work. I know, but U know how it goes. I had some wicked working hours at one point man. My timer couldn't keep up with the wattage and went broke [ my mistake ] and I when I noticed it, I flipped my lights on at 02:30 at night. It was thursday and I got myself new timers on monday so had to go manually. I went to sleep at 04:00, woke up.. started to blaze at some point -> need to stay awake till 02:30, blaze more. 02:30, you're really stoned and U had lots of shit U should do but you're just too tired. I was working like 4 hours on one night, I was like zombie farmer.

Mistakes like this make me feel like I ain't got my greenthumb where it should be. Little depressing. Most of my plants are really trimmed because lots of yellow & fucked up leaves. I'm pretty sure they ain't even close to the health par as they should be. :( Well atleast I learn from my mistakes and there's a million things I do better next grow.

In the end I didn't flush my plants, fertilized like normal. Gave the younger ones full mix too. Hopefully they wont be hurt. I will probably flush on next watering with plain water.

Trimmed today all the bad and dead leaves, atleast air will move nicely. I tried to even the canopy a little and moved plants around, did pretty ok job.

I need to add some Co2 there, need to put wine coming. Going to buy Co2 -tank for next grow.

I was cleaning there today and putting pieces of my aeroflow together as I have 6 Ak48 and 6 Jock Horror beans on rockwool. I'm going also veg 6 Ak48's in soil in there. Going to put 600w there.

How far away you guys keep your lights off plants in flower?

Pictures! edit: layout fucked up because I'm high.

Not trying to sound like a prick or anything,

But if you aren't even flushing your plants, what good is Co2 going to do? probably not much of anything, but give you a headache. Anyway, get your nute schedule down, mainly by watching what the plant needs. Then you will be able to utilize Co2 to its full capabilities. Until then, you will honestly be wasting your money.
