Fucking nice bro!! Good job. May i inquire about which nutes/ lights etc you’re using?? Those are serious looking colas buddy!!
First off, thanks a ton for the compliments....Im not gonna lie to you when I say this is my first real grow too. Not just my first journaled grow. I screwed up a lot... But Im fox farming everything as far as soil and nutes. I found out I over fed a lot, next grow Im cutting back by half on the following nute schedule. I dont think it will effect the way the watermelon zkittles stacked up though.
Soil and pots
Fox farm happy frog/ocean forest in a 4:1 blend and Rain Science 5gals
Nutes and schedule
I use spring water now which is way better but was using distilled. Ph'd to 6.5-6.6 during veg feeding after the first month once every 4th watering, and ph to 6.2 during flower. Also you might be able to half the dose of grow big after the start of flower, theres a lot of nitrogen rich stuff in fox farm.
I only use
BIG BLOOM, GROW BIG, TIGER BLOOM, RARELY
CAL/MAG (might need one dose after switching to flower after an extended veg)
, BOOMERANG, KANGAROOTS, MICROBE BREW, AND KELP ME...
My tent set up is ac infinity everything. I however did not buy a kit.
Its the 3x3 tent, their s44 quantum board light, their 6" exhaust and filter and the 6" clip on (non-oscillating). All controlled with the controller 69, comes with a temp and humidity probe so you can set temp and humidity based programs via thresholds.
The 3x3 kit comes with their s33 light and a 4" exhaust kit. I plan on upgrading some time so now I can buy the cheaper light and exhaust kit with a 4x4 tent and Ill be golden.
Im running the light during flower at full power at about 20" above the tallest plant, about 30" above the others lmao. Its hitting the watermelon at 750ppfd on 90% of the plant and 900ppfd on that really tall cola, otherwise the remainder of the tent was getting around 700-800 depending on how close to the center everything was. I didnt mention it in my original post but all 3 are photos. Havent tried any barneys autos or really any at all. More of a photo guy myself. More comfortable with them.
Oh also I did a lot of defoliation, and I mean A LOT Probably took over a 1lb of fan leaves off every plant. Lollipopped a little but I definitely outgrew my tent on this one, there was also an auto packed in there up until several weeks ago. So all in all this probably could have turned out even better. Oh and I topped at the 5th-6th node. If theres anything else I forgot to mention lemme know, Im happy to share
If you're interested in Barneys, im planning on a 2 plant grow next. A lemon tree and tangerine dream. Probably starting that one in the beginning of March.
