This is a debated topic. Some consider the seedling stage part of veg, so they count the days from sprout. Others will consider the first 2-3 weeks the seedling stage and will then start counting veg days after that. I wish there was a clear answer but unfortunately there really isn’t a set standard that all growers go by.

Question: If my PPM is high before I add nutrients . Is there a good way to lower it?
Answer: If your water has a high PPM to begin (before adding nutrients), there’s not a whole lot you can do. One thing would be to dilute it with some sort of filtered water that you know has a lower ppm. For example if you tap water comes out at 250ppm, and you add in some RO water that comes on at 20ppm, well then the overall solution will end up being a lower ppm than what comes straight out of your tap. Hope that makes sense.

What exactly do you mean by planting kit? Are you talking about an entire grow tent setup or are you talking just for germination?

[mrgrowit]

Coming along very nicely! You should get a good yield out of that tent!

I’m happy to hear about the 100% germination rate! I’ll definitely be following along here. Cheers!

Coming along good so far!

Good question! Although its generally said that the ideal PPFD for flowering is 600-900 PPFD, plants will still flower and grow decent buds at a lower PPFD. So you getting 550 PPFD should be sufficient. It’s hard for me to say yes or no for “keeping the lights on full blast that close to the canopy during flower”. You may just want to try it and then increase the light distance if you are seeing problems.

66-73% isn’t a very big swing. Powdery mildew is most at risk when you have high humidity (generally above 60%) and a lack of airflow. I’ve had swings from 30%-60% and the plant takes it. Sure, it’s not ideal, but the plant will still grow.

Yeah that part of GT118 sums it up pretty good. Basically YouTube suppresses cannabis content. Also it can’t be monetized.

Awesome! I’m looking forward to seeing its progress.

Either the plant is receiving enough darkness to make it flower or that’s an autoflower plant

Sure, here’s a few sources to what I was talking about in the video:

The reason why a carpet is a concern is mostly due to not being able to clean up as efficiently. For example if you spill nutrient solution or soil then it will be a pain to clean up. If you are growing in a grow tent and it’s on a carpet, that’s fine.

Let’s go! I’m happy to see it! Cheers!
