when those lady's start getting big your going to need 2. I have one blowing up and under the canopy and one blowing down onto them
I'm in for the ride, set up looking good so far dude, have a slap......and lets cross fingers for 100% germination

i live in the shire@IndicaIVoz
yes agree with that get a bit frosty in the winter here so will be well needed in a loft
where do u live?
do you have a dark period or do you run 24/0?

I am curious to see how you do with the Gorilla glue. I have had nute issues with mine. First def then burn and I have never used more than 1/3 strength of my nutes. this is my first auto and indoor grow so I expected issues. live and learn. Good luck looking forward to seeing your results.
i live in the shire, i run indoor hydro rdwc. @18/6 ,my advice is never run at 24/0 all plants need rest.
My understanding is ruderalis is hemp that developed the auto flowering trait because it had to learn to start its nightly processes early due to the long days in the upper northern hemisphere ie canada, europe and so on. this dose not mean it can handle 24 hours of light or that it wants to. normally in these areas they at least get 1 hour of dark time and thats at extreme.
If someone wanted to grow a very small shabby looking malnourished ruderalis plant (which is precisely what they are in the wild) without much root mass, run on these kinds of hours. healthy plants need a dark period to develop more healthy.![]()
yes 20/4 is the preference for some ,kinda look at it as rushing it,like its a choice do you want to finish them faster but smaller or slower and bigger. thats the way i look at it . however be careful of changing hours and interrupting dark hours as this mess's with there "body clock" or in plants called circadian rhythms.where is shire bud?
i might alter it then maybe to 20/4 do you think this would be better
i started my last ones outside so did not know this...........coming your way when i can say's i cant atm
thanks

I didn't know this, thanks for the info! Is it the TOC1 protein levels that makes a plant droopy before lights out?yes 20/4 is the preference for some ,kinda look at it as rushing it,like its a choice do you want to finish them faster but smaller or slower and bigger. thats the way i look at it . however be careful of changing hours and interrupting dark hours as this mess's with there "body clock" or in plants called circadian rhythms.
The clock genes work on a central feedback loop; this means that three genes work together in a seesaw-like action. These genes have the curious names of CCA1, LHY and TOC1; TOC1 is named after the sound a clock makes! Each gene tells the plant to make a protein bearing the same name as the gene. These proteins are like little engines that drive certain processes inside the plant.
To start with, when the sun rises the relevant instructions tell the plant to make the CCA1 and LHY proteins. When these are being made the plant knows that it is daytime. These two proteins prevent the plant from making TOC1. In the afternoon the plant destroys CCA1 and LHY, which allows TOC1 to be made. When there is lots of TOC1 the plant knows it is night time. TOC1 is destroyed just before dawn, but the last job it does is to tell the plant to make CCA1 and LHY, starting the whole process off again.
This complicated feedback loop is actually only the central part of a network of interacting genes but it acts like the tiny cogs on the inside of a watch that move the hands around.
so all in all you dont need to know any of that hahaha . but it is important to understand that plants do in fact have a body clock.![]()
