Lighting AutoCob, Auto Flower, megacrop thread.



Nice rooms full of greenery.

Got a question for you. What is your Green Leaf nutes when switching to flower? Do you change Megacrop at all? Or CalMagPro? From what you used in final vegging. My garden will be switching to flower any day now. Currently using 4.5g/g of MC. And 1g/g of both SC and CMP. And I have BE for flower. Would you continue to use that dose and just add 1g/g of BE?
 
I have everything ordered and it’s all on the way to start my first grow! 4 auto cobs,4x4 tent ,Greenleaf nutes, Mephisto Genetics cannot wait to get this grow started! Hopefully I can get some tips along the way here!
If it doesn't seem like you're getting an answer quick enough, after you start your grow, Jump into live stoners...there's usually ALWAYS someone in there.
What medium are you planning on growing in?

Me I would reduce MC to 4 gpg add BE keep SC and CMP same for 3 weeks then stop CMP reduce MC 2 gpg keep BE and SC same till you feel you're 7 to 10 days from finishing then SC only till 3 days b4 chop. Note this is just a guesstimate I read my plants and reduce when I feel it's time. I hope this helps

Excellent. I was looking at the GL board and threads on dialing in MC and best auto schedules and past posts and noticed you like to stop the CMP around 6 weeks. And now I got the complete picture. I need to find a happy middle ground because I have 10 plants on 2 autopot reservoirs so I can't dial in each plant. But your tailing off approach should be good middle ground. Happy growing.
 
Thanks for all the support guys, I will definitely make a grow journal and tag you guys. Hopefully around Christmas time,I will have everything together I have on order.Canada Post is on strike so shipping delays are crazy, unfortunately I will not have a carbon scrubber during the first month or so of my grow hopefully sometime in January, I will be growing in Canna coco and perlite, 3 gallon airpots, 4 autocobs,4x4 tent,Megacrop SC BE etc.i also have ppm and a ph meter. Hopefully with some tips I will be able to have a successful grow, I should mention I have grown a few outdoor plants in soil that turned out ok, but I know growing indoor in coco it’s a different beast.I got a question what items should I have on hand in case of Common pest problems?

Mosquito bits/bombs, Diomateus(spelling is wrong, sorry) earth, sand, 3% hydrogen peroxide, yellow fly strips, neem oil...

It all depends on how bad it gets.

Diatameous Earth and sticky traps are the only two I really keep on hand.

DE didnt work for me in my hydro set up. just got wet and then looked shitty, and doesnt do shit if it gets wet. lol I wasted my money there. Im ordering some azamax and neem oil and fly traps next. I duct tape the top of my dwc buckets for 2 reasons. 1 so light dont get in my resevoir and 2 so bugs dont get in my res and lay eggs and wreak havoc by causing root rot. ive battle root rot before and won, but when it happened from gnats i could not get my pineapple express auto from barneys farm to recover and i lost her about a month into my grow. so now i use duct tape to keep them out of my shit and to prevent light leaks, so far all is well. now i just need to figure out the source of these damn fungus gnats. and erradicate them for good

I'll mention another option you might really like. Mosquito dunks work great for killing bug larvae. you would throw in a quarter of a donut in to your buckets. No mess like DE. Wont harm plants. Can be used as a preventive thing too. They last 30 days so you put a small chunk in the bucket every 30 days.
