New Grower Dankerson's Grow & Show

[InkAddict$]

So my first indicator was some of my leaves were starting to show burn spots, lightly but they were there only on leaves closest to the light:

Second indicator was the leaves on the Marathon OG started to "pray" upwards and canoe a bit like this:View attachment 1476896

I run my UVA the whole time for however long it is. Right now it's at 6 hours but I've had strains that can take 12 no problem.

I turned mine to 15 on 15 off the whole 18 hour cycle.... That's only 9 hours of UVA.. gives them time to cool down between UVA blasting... Lol

Damn your plants look good I just bought a whole new nutrient line.... See what this can do.....

I think I might adopt a schedule like that. The Marathon OG and AvT don't seem to be really liking all the UV.

Appreciate it! This is the first run all my stuff isn't burnt or looking crappy so I'm definitely happy about that. It's honestly really simple setup I have going now. Looks like you got the whole line of good stuff so you should be set if you figure out a nute schedule they like!

I have not but I've been really interested in one. I have a soild BHO setup and usually get 5-10gs a run off of my extra trim so I'm hesitant to go with the press since I already have a bunch invested in that. Plus it's what I know since I've been doing it for years so I've gotten good at it. Here's a pic of some Alaskan purple shatter I made a bit ago.

I say that but I'll end up getting it within the next year lol

Day 35/15/1:

Week 5 for the originals! Everyone is moving right along! Still having to water them all but the GP daily. We now have the Ogreberry, Fog Dog and Moth Man in the tent under domes. I watered the two 3 gallons with about 1L of recharge and about 1/4 of that for the 1 gallon. The CDLC is beginning to really stretch so that's nice. Marathon OG is showing the worst signs of UV burn so I adjusted the schedule to 2 hours on/off. It'll be on for 6 hours total. AvT is showing the burns a bit less. Nothing I'm really too worried about yet. AvT and CDLC are a bit behind the other 3 but are starting to hit flowering harder now. Really happy with how everything is going in the tent today! As much as I'm excited for the Marathon OG the Cosmic Apprentice is by far the best looking and my favorite so far. Still have high hopes for the Marathon though. Thanks for stopping by.

Another thing about uva/uvb exposure I feel enhances the plants positive reaction during flowering is to break up your "daytime" into thirds and only operate the uv during the middle of the day. This gives the plant time to repair the damage from the uv exposure. I know this isn't a scientific conclusion, just what I have seen during my experimentation with uva/uvb and my grows, ymmv

Yeah that's how I do it. I picked 12 hours where it's 2 hours on/off during so it gets 6 total with rest in between. Out of the 20 hours my lights are on it falls in the middle of it. Been watching it closely and they seem to be okay with it so far
