looked into this a little and decided to stay 18/6. The hairy Spainiard says that the plants may not mature as quickly with 24 hrs compared to 18 of light, and not to force flower until they are mature. As the NH is known to grow tall I'd like them to mature as quickly as possible. Even so, I'll be using LST and supercropping (again) to even out the tops.
I'll check the seeds this evening and if they are ready I'll plant them. The grow area is freshly cleaned and ready to grow.
lolololol @ 'Hairy Spainard'!!! Too funny.
Happy growin'!
Just wondering about your supercropping shov, i've heard a couple of slightly different ways of doing it, how do you do yours and how deep into flower do you do it?
Cheers
e2a I know it's a little early but maybe you'd be kind enough to share your method when the time comes, i've been forced into doing some brutal supercropping recently to keep an even canopy and it's certainly been effective in that regard but i'd love to hear more on the subject.
Well hairiness aside....I run plants at 24/0 AND 18/6 and have seen no difference in how fast they grow but that's just me. Perhaps I'm not hairy enough to be giving you cannabis advice.....:D :D
supercropping, where you 'break the hurd' of the branches.
I don't remember exactly when, but I started lst in week 4 of veg, probably did the supercropping shortly after. One plant I did nine branches and that pheno ended up extaordinary. maybe co-inkydink maybe not. I finger-squeeze the top branches when they get a little stretchy. I do this between the top nodes.
not hairy enough? I bet you've got one hell of a pelt. <G>
i cant wait to see this one shov.. it should be a good christmas for sho:rastasmoke:
I planted five each of AK-47 and Neville's Haze. I somehow managed to loose one Neville's Haze seed while planting. Hopefully it is in the box under the paper towel (which I use to keep the seeds from floating out of their holes and keep the soil moist on top. Usually, I'll use plastic wrap for this). I watered them in with 1 gallon of WARM water w/ one drop of Superthrive. I will hear on in be using unsoftened cold water, which I believe helps the female to male ratio.

Here's some photos of the grow area. It is in a dark room, so no need to have a light-tight enclosure. The mylar is glued to cardboard sheets and is easily removed for watering etc. It is now set up on a sawhorse but will be dropped closer to the floor as they grow.

The lights are set as close as possible to the planters. The temp is around 70ºF. The lights will bring this temp up during the 18 hour days. No fan until the seedlings are up and shed their hull.

Looking forward to following this one, Shov. :hippy:
Have a good one, and Be Safe.:jointsmile:
