New Grower The Garden of Beavis

[beavis]

No idea about the light but the new tent will certainly make your life easier. That's a perfect size to grow 4 big girls.
There's a lot of LED experts around here, you might want to post your question in a specific forum for that. Someone will be more than happy to advise you over there.

Kingbrite sent me instructions via email this morning. (More instruction than what I got from HLG!)

I am ready to get it all set up so that I can start sleeping better at night lol.


Edit: I think the biggest girl will get the 31"x31" while I move the smaller girls into the new tent.

Perfect! You've even got some space to pop a few more beans then. I'm jealous!

The CDLC that I topped is getting TALL. The two "main" colas would have caught up to the Sam's/Double Grape within a couple of days for sure...so I decided to have a little fun with her and help her out a bit.

Just some LST but it might be a bit rough lol they are basically sitting horizontally right now.

*Insert later*

....well I am actually having trouble uploading the pics right now, but I will try to shrink them down a bit so you guys can see.

Thinking about making this one my battle plant... we'll see lol because her sisters are looking pretty spectacular at the moment...I just have a feeling she will be a bit of a late bloomer.

The girls just got fed a couple of hours ago. Seems like maybe a bit too early this time. They are pretty droopy at the moment, but I expect them to pep back up by the end of the day.

DG & Sam's OG: 5L each
CDLCs: 4L each

Here are some update pics.

Double Grape day 36

CDLC day 29

Sam's OG day 36

Topped CDLC day 29

Here they are right after watering

2.5 hours after very droopy

2.5 hours later again and the droop is almost completely gone.

I tried to upload a pic for comparison but the server is saying it's too big again....

Edit: by the way, the wooden plant dollys that I got smell fucking terrible when they get wet with nute water. Like awful dog poo smell. I have never been so ready for pots to dry out lol they can't go fast enough.

Here they are about 18 hours or so from feeding. Would this be a sea of green?

(Finally got the color right on my pics!!)

ppm/EC meter just came in the post. Anyone want to give me a crash course on how to use this thing? I see people giving measurements of like 0.1 or whatever but my meter doesn't measure in decimals.

Just wondering what I am supposed to be aiming for. Bought it because it was recommended by a couple of people.

If it is both PPM and EC then there should be a button on it that switches the display depending on which unit you prefer using - it is defaulted to PPM by the looks of it, which is fine but annoyingly there are 3 different conversions to EC depending on the model of pen...
How you use it depends on you really. I check my base water, then check the readings after adding each ingredient so I know how many PPM of each additive I have in the mix.

Do you have a good guide of what I should be aiming for or is it just so I can back off a bit when things get too hot?
