Indoor First Ever Autofower Grow ''Think Different'' +some

It's all good. You win some you loose some.... If I did not have problems and mistakes I would not learn anything. Too funny when we bought the mobile home we was told the basement did not get wet. The first time there was 14'' of water and then I got drain unplugged but its plugged again and does not seem to want to unplug so I will cut a hole in floor with concrete saw and put a sump pump into the hole. It would be nice to have put them onto pallets but I would still have the moisture from the water but at least not wicking up the pots. who knows whats in that water
 
Experience is the best teacher, to be sure!

So sorry about the freakin FLOOD!! The wind blew down part of our fence early on in my grow and "exposed" my auto babies to the neighbors - it's all fixed now - but a flood, like the wind, is something completely unexpected and hard to plan for in advance... I feel for you so much!

I'm sending :vibe: and good drying karma :karma: and we'll all be looking out to see how it's going for you and the ladies!

:group:
 
sounds good to me I will start final flush tomorrow if they dry out. I just went into basement and what do I find? 6 inches of water. for some reason my drain is plugged now so I have to go to town and get a new sump pump and pump it out. I have them up on wood blocks but the water was touching the bottom of the pots which wicks water up through the soil now I have to wait to water them because some are wet.... God damn this is turning into a nightmare. I did check my buds though and there is no sign of bud rot but with water in basement its 82% WOW. I think I am going to run my a/c just to help remove some of the moisture

Sorry to hear it bro. First grow and all the troubles, you will be a pro next time around.

Cannot help you guys, sorry but got that for you, hope it help
:peace:

How to Use a Dehumidifier to Fight Mold

Mold grows best in damp and warm conditions. The air dehumidifier is an excellent tool to help fight mold growth, especially when used in conjunction with two other tools; your air conditioner and a humidity gauge. The humidity gauge does just what the name implies; giving you a reading for how much humidity is in the air. You want to operate your dehumidifier so that your humidity gauge gives a relative humidity reading of between 30 and 50 percent. Mold likes to grow in temperatures between 77 and 86 degrees. Set thermostats to keep the temperatures out of these ranges. With these three tools, you can prevent new mold growth in your home or apartment.


Floods, High Humidity, and Mold

Those who live in the wake of Gulf Coast hurricanes know about mold issues all too well, but those who experience flooding for the first time may not realize the full implications of the flood waters until they have receded and recovery operations are well under way. Flooding, combined with high humidity and heat, means the onset of mold growth. Even something as comparatively minor as a flooded out basement can become a huge health issue due to mold. If you are dealing with flood issues, here are some very important things to consider:
1. Replace all insulation touched by floodwaters. Even if the insulation is only slightly damp, it is a virtual mold incubator.
2. As soon as possible, get the flooded areas of your home and office to a strict climate control situation. Do not allow unrestricted temperature fluctuations if you can help it.
3. Employ dehumidifiers as soon as possible in addition to strict temperature controls.
4. Do not hesitate to completely remove damp wood, carpets, tile, sheetrock, and other potential mold-growth areas. Even a damp drop-ceiling panel should be disposed of right away to prevent mold growth.
Ignoring these mold hotspots will increase your mold issues later on, and could complicate the rebuilding process.


Running an A/c will pull out moisture too.
All should be used together, fan, dehumidifier and A/C

Thanks man, I got all the water pumped out now got 2 extra box fans and a 2 800 cfm blowers removing air through carbon filters. I don't like using them when it is so humid but the smell is to much to just suck outdoors. I checked all top buds and see no signs of mold or PM. I am going to feed Friday then start flushing with final phase Monday or Tuesday. Also I am starting to see some light milky colored resin tric's.

If you have milky ones, then you are gonna have amber ones before long. You may already know but if you don't I don't want you to say why didn't somebody tell me, so I am gonna say it. Not trying to sound like a know it all cause I sure as hell don't lol, but. Harvest when milky for the Sativa (head buzz) harvest when amber for more indica (body) stone. Amber is a sign of degrading THC. http://www.growweedeasy.com/how-do-THC-and-CBD-relate-to-cannabis-potency
 
yeah I am aiming for a 75 milky 25 amber kind of thing. I like sativa effect but patience like indica so seems like a good idea. I could be wrong though
 
That is about what I hit on my Polar Lights and it was perfect for me. Real heady high for about 30 minutes then into a very chill stone. It was predominantly Sativa. Isis mother if I recall correctly.

1st. auto wappa
the rest are pictures of a TD I pulled out. shes got some amber in her. just a couple that I could find
 
Looking nice, I am with Muddy though, looking at the size of that nute bottle I believe you can pack some more weight on that one for sure. Those leaves are still pretty green!
