I took a 4 month RV trip and left my plant in veg for about 5 months in a 5x5. I flipped when I got back. Im in the last few days of flower. This thing is enormous and has completely filled my 5x5. So many flowers!!! My biggest tent grow ever! Beautiful plant, I almost hate to chop it this weekend
@@87Rado I had a friend watering for me with adding molasses, seaweed extract and epsom salt. Shes a great friend and did a great job. I just couldnt burden her with the responsibility of flipping it. Its such a great plant. Im really proud of this one!
I’m livened to grow 117 plants indoors here in bc. I make my own concentrates and I no longer take pain medication for my back . This really is a special plant
I'm no taking more methadone and Xanax and all those stuff because if my beautiful plants...is magic..I now why is illegal expecially here in Italy.vatican and mafia are the reason.they don't even want CBD imagine
Even in my 4x4x7ft tent if i dont top, the plant will hit the light after only 3 weeks veg. If you grow indoors, topping, at least, is a must. Hands down the best person to listen to for advice that you can actually understand.
Great info scotty and Hi C! Times are changing and there are so many different directions you can go with growing. I've been an outdoor grower since the early 80s and been indoor for the last7 years. I'm still learning and enjoy every show. It's true the first thing to look at for veg is space and it only gets smaller as your plants go to flower. you can start 4 little seedlings in a 4x4 room and think that's not enough but by halfway through flower the room could be way to small if left to veg too long. It's trial and error and you have to learn, and after 7 years I'd like to think there is a better way to grow so I listen to every bit of advice I can. Dude Grows is a legit way to get that info and enjoy an hour of your day. Thanks guys! 💯
I fill my 4x4s about 3/4 full with 6 plants per 4x4 in 3 gallons. Rooted clones veg approximately 2 weeks. The 3 week stretch helps finish filling the scrogs.
Vegging for too long can lead to having lots of fongi or even root rotting , small plants are easier to manage move around and the trimming part is usually easier too.
Scotty, man im so glad to see you putting out content! Im just a little home grower from Oklahoma, and i just gotta say i will not have a single run without recharge! thanks for that product man! Now i gotta check out these grow dots .Very nice to have such a trusted source of relly good info.
From popping a bean 10 weeks min to flip. then 2 weeks into flower start new beans gives me two weeks to use flower room as cure room. veg room 8x12 -flower room 12 x 12 (2) T-5 veg (3) LED flower (1) CMH Flower for added heat source in winter Great Show........
New grower up north , this is my 4th grow . Indoor Sativa one plant and I'm week nine in veg. Plants doing amazing with SOG topped 3 times , 5by5 by 8 . ITS ABOUT 3.5 feet tall in its 10galllon. 420 soil using dry amendments GAIA green 4.4.4 with Neptune sea weed and fish. Water from my well ,never check PH plants always green and mean with Cal Meg. I'm hitting 9 weeks in Veg and going. My outdoor ones started in door ,16-week veg , monsters in 17 gallon bin.
4x4 tent, 4 sativas that stretch 3x, i like an 8-10 week veg (lots of training) in 7 gal fabric. TONS of roots. use a net up high to keep the branches from bending over. ive discovered that the marshydro fce4800 can only do a maximum of 20 O's without CO2. thats something that nobody mentions= the maximum light potential. ive tried 5 plants, and 1 plant in a 4 gal square bucket veg'd to the walls, and everytime is the same 20 O's. same with a smaller cabinet. which is a mars ts1000, max is 8 O's. doesnt matter if multiple 1 gals or 2- 7 gals, always 8 O's in the 6sqft cab. ALSO - my rule of thumb is same number of weeks as there is gallons of soil. 7 gal pot = about 7 week veg. you dont want to under utilize the amount of soil. just like your light draw at the wall should equal the sqft of the space converted to grams. so- 16 sqft to grams 448w. roughly. and good starting point is total gals soil = sqft of space. 16sqft tent divided by 4 pots is 4gals each, then those would want about a 4 week veg. but if you plan to veg longer, just increase pot size. sorry for the long winded reply, i enjoy watching/listening to many grow channels and have yet to hear anyone mention this easy formula for beginners. thank you for the awesome content.
i havent purposefully purchased auto seeds. however, i did come across 2 seeds in a 5 pack of fem photos that started flowering when i transplanted out of the solo cup under 18/6. I add nutes to soil and if I had known they were auto, i would have mixed different ratios (for the short veg. they turned out super leafy and airy due to too much nitrogen in flower). they were in my usual 7 gal fabrics and got 4 O's each. BUT... that was in the wood cabinet that maxes at 8 anyway. the 7 gals i thought were too big. by the end of flower the soil wasnt drying fast enough (seemed like the plants just stopped taking up water) and i was worried about mold. from what ive heard from everyone else: 5 gals is the right size for autos if you have some experience already. @@justinholtgrave
I'm new to growing so forgive any ignorance here.... But what do you mean by O's? Said it's got a max of 20 O's and you said another time 8 O's. Is this something I should know and need to know?
i would say the weight is more Strain dependent then light dependent. Also all your info is meaningless as you fail to mention from seed or clone. So any time mentioned means nothing.
I agree with shorter veg time for faster harvest, running pure clones, im running sea of green atm with some Afghanicas/BLD just because i want to get a quick harvest in before rainy reason starts outside, and i already ran the long flowering NLD's . but one point i must stress, is the older plants ussualy have more complex terpene profiles and ussualy better effects flavors, and potency, if your taking from a mature clone it doesn't matter as much since its from mature plant. but if your growing from seed and your doing sea of green, your really going to hurt the quality of your buds by flowering them before the plant is at its sexual maturity. the plants higher in myrcene generally will switch to flowering faster after light switch. if your after maximum yield per light in a certain amount of time yes, sea of green from clones. but if your after cannabis cup buds, give your plants a long veg, and don't flip them until they show preflowers in veg, showing there sexually mature and ready for flip. when you flip the plants b4 there mature it hurts the overall quality.
When mine are about to go into flower I like to take yarn and pull everything apart to hold everything down then it’s more bush like. I’ve done this with 12 foot trees. It also helps with airflow and light penetration
A good tip for people who have low ceiling height with plants . What we did was grow in 3 gallon buckets put your small cutting in the centre,then put a 2 foot square mesh over the top, something quite strong. Then when the plant grow out above the bucket tie it down to the mesh. Do this when the plant is only 5 or 5 inches tall so still flexible. Then anything that grows tie it loosely to the mesh leaving room in the not for the stem to thicken up. Then keep tieing the plant down until it completely fills the mesh. At this point there should be no stems any higher than about 4 inches and the hole mesh piece is full. Then put it into flower ,so you basically have a plant on its side it will only grow about 3 feet high after 8 weeks. But you get a canopy nearly all the Same. Try it because it really works.
I'm just starting growing. I use to grow in high school. But, now I'm in my 50's and growing for my own medicine. I'm all natural and full organic and I grow all outside in North Florida. I have been letting my plants veg for 8 weeks and I keep them short. I have a Vietnamese Mango that is in flowering stage after 6 weeks and one of the 6 Tangi BX2 just went into flower this week. Also growing a Tennessee whiskey Kush that is still in veg and it's going on 10 weeks now.
Very nicely done and well thought out. However, I believe flowering your traditional plants comes down to personal preference and space. I've since become and auto flower grower, no guess work involved, no changing light cycles it's almost plant and forget (well almost). Anyway, good job!
I veg for about 2to3 weeks.... sea of green leads to mold and mildew... if your living in a humid climate i don't recommend it. Also another thing i want to say is when growing outdoors make sure you check to see if there designed to be grown indoors or outdoors.... some of the indoor strains don't flower before its too late in the fall
yeah getting seeds that were grown outdoors and seeded outdoors is another huge thing i would add. if your growing outside. So many breeders seed indoors.
Thanks for the detail oriented presentation. I always get good info here. I made some adjustments to my grow today and separated young seedlings into their own room so I can give them more light! Now I just need to top off my reservoir and adjust the pH to the right level.
I scrog every time, so it depends on how many I grow to fill my 3x3. I veg 1 plant 60 days, 2 plants for 30 days, and 4 plants for 2 weeks. I go through an ounce per week and this seems to keep me away from the dispensary in the neighboring state. I live in an 'other than legal' state.
Yea bro! I'm doing a perpetual auto grow this round with 6 and 6. Just got the beans popped and running my 100% organic soil in 5 gallon fabric pots. Veg tent is a 2x4 and flower tent is going to be my 4x4. Fingers crossed man, last couple harvest have been amazing so I hope to get to harvest every 45 / 50 days with the same quality.
Once she shows her pistils that's her telling you that she's ready mature enough to go into flower 🌱 & using things like "airpots" (used for a superior root systems) can help speed up veg stages 🌱 ... I tend to grow a indoor monster , my last one I vegged for around 10 weeks, 9 litre plastic airpot,Coco ( no pgrs added 🤮) & a 750w max double ended bulb light & she dropped 36oz (over 2 weeks dry) 🌱
I veg 6 plants in 10 gallon fabric pots using coco coir for 12 weeks in a 5x5 that I also flower in under an 800w LED. Train to keep them low, even and bushy. I usually have a 5-6 month grow cycle, so two grows per year and generally 2.5-3.5lbs per harvest dry weight. I run clones of two glookies and gorilla zkittlez mothers that I bred out and pheno selected.
Depends on how many plants, how much space you’ve got. Bout to hunt a couple packs in a 5x5 gonna give em maybe 2 weeks 18/6 since I know both parents stretch pretty hard. Besides I’m almost out of my last harvest 😅 so less veg time = weed sooner
I veg for three months from seed, so I have nice mature plants that will maximize resin production. Unfortunately, when you flower under 60-65 days for an indica or less than 70'75 for a sativa, your resin production will take a hit. Fron colonel I flower at the height and age I choose as the colonel are considered to be the same age as the mother so they are already mature. I never keep a mother more than a year and a half as they will start to develop problems and suseptabilities around the two year mark, anuals get confused when their life span is extended too much as they are programed to die every year.
@marcus9x9 Sometimes, other times, I'll let them go four months. I prefer very mature plants for flowering. The resin production is better that way. I'm talking from seed though, clones are usually good to go as they are already considered to be as old as the mother plant.
I can promise you that's not true, and I can put any of my flower to comparison, I have tested over 34% total cannabinoids and up to 7% terps. I usually never veg that long mostly 4 to 5 weeks max.
I'm growing 2 cindys in a 5 x5 . They been in veg for twelve weeks,and i have every square of the first net full. Im ready to install the second net ,and flower these girls. Should be epic.
Great content. I'm going through and watching a lot of stuff. I love it. You gotta get a camera mount that isn't attached to the table. It's like a found footage/shaky cam sometimes. haha.
Im in nine weeks of veg right now which is my average veg time minimum 10 weeks maximum. It all depends on size if I think they are behind in size I let them veg longer. Because at 9 weeks of veg my plants are just now hitting that groove of filling out and getting some size on. I keep all my plants bushy and squat. They thicken up in flower real fast. Average grow from seed to harvest 130 days give or take a few. 12 to 15 days dry time. No hurries no worries.
I had monster cropped clones given to me and it took 4 weeks to re vedge and there 6 weeks into good vedge now. There Blueberry Jiu-jitsu so it's going to be so worth it
I grow bushes the size of a outdoor hedge in width. That's about 12 weeks in a aeropnic setup. I make sure I use up all my real-estate I snip my plants young and make sure the grow out not up this way I can flower the complete plant.
I've had 4 plants in 3 gal pots in my 4x4 x 6 hi tent and right now, I have 2 plants that FILL my tent in 3 gal and look like a SOG! (too long in veg trying dif. LST) I may regret this goofing around, and spent 2 weeks screwing with the lights trying to get the schedule right on 12's so they didn't go to flower when I wanted them to (they are going now finally) so it will be interesting. This grow has been in veg now for 9 weeks.
My brother and I have been keeping a blue dream cutting going that can fill half a 5x5 on stretch. It’s crazy. Then I have a personal fav that short and stout.
Same. I flower In 2 4x4 gorilla tents I like 6 3 gallons per 4x4 . By time they clones rooted and vegged 3 weeks I flip and the 3 week strech fills the canopy.
@@PNWHerb sorry about that! 36-40 days from germination my plants tend to be about 18-20 inches high and 12-15 inches in diameter. Within the three weeks of flower they usually fill all available space with two plants in a 2 x 4. There is some variation between cultivars
I'm trying for 50% of my square footage to be full before flipping to flower. If I'm doing full scrog it may be a lot longer. There are so many variables but the 50% canopy so for me in a 2x4 I would have to have a 2x2 area of canopy before flipping to flower. But again so many variables. In the end it's trial and error. Not two people grow exactly the same way
Depends if im hand watering in an R&D tent or running an automated Drip system. Comes down how im set-up, clone or seed, a # of things like you said. My ideal set up is 1-2gal and crop steering so 1-3 weeks from clone turn and burn.
My indoor grows i usually veg for 2-3 months , mainline is must for me cause of the 2x4 tent but i yield alot , this summer however im getting a larger tent so i can start growing 3 months before moving them outside which ill end up having giant trees for my outdoor grow season lol
8 -9 weeks if I got one plant 4 weeks for tent full of plants I usually run indoor during winter one from seed take clones at week 7 flower it then put clones in flower tent and flower them off
you ever veg your plant at 24/7 for 4 weeks then . then no light for 1.5 days then put them to 12 hr . flower.. that was for a 8X8 room with 35 plant in 8 inch pots
I have been vegging for about 8 weeks, but I am going to try a sea of green next round to see what it is like. I use a 5 x 5 tent now, for the last round before that a 2 x 4 closet. In the closet I almost had to use 8 weeks.
I do lights off for 72 hrs.befor i flip to flower.plants start flowering 5 or 6 days.wife and i combined can grow 12 plants gotta 10'x23'roon decked out so we grow big plants 4 to 6 oz.bud per plant.prefer cloning to useing seeds.
I change the length of veg depending on which strain I'm growing, currently I am growing a white lavender hybrid I cooked up 5-6 years ago, I try for 12-18 inches in height for my flip over to flower, some take longer, but, heck, I'm worth it.
Growing out of 2 4x4x7 tents. I always mainline to your point about yield per square footage. Makes for a better yield and a more efficient grow. Roughly 8-10 weeks in veg before I flip to flower. One grow over the spring summer months yields enough herb for me for the next year with some to share. Thanks Scotty and be well my fellow growers!
Truth is depends on what ur growing that’s fact don’t care what anyone says it’s a bit less diverse with modern genetics polyhybrids shit that’s beeed for our modern usual grower but once u get into exotics heirlooms “landraces” the game changes all together some like my newest strain if you veg past 4-6” you’ll run out of canopy space no question that one is a flip from seed drop and u still fill a whole 6x6 of the one version I have a few that stay smaller in hoping to get out to a Michigan grow show and hand out some of my genetics for everyone to enjoy mostly thin leaf is my thing I’m old school though but am working on some broad leaf stuff have a nice chemdog 91 cross haven’t tried those f1s though but anything I’ve pollinated my male Sri Lankan heirloom sativa with has had solid stability even with f1s very racy
Trying something new, instead of the usual 4 week veg, I am trying 1 photo with 3 autos. Will be topping the photo, with some LST too rope in growth. Mephisto GWK autos, and a Double Chocolate photo

I have a question, great info btw, so my question is…… I’m have a plant growing out side, does this mean that I’ll just have to leave it to do its own thing? Or will it just go into flower its self? It’s an auto cookies Kush. Hope some one can help. Thanks 🙏
Im a beginner and I need help with my plants out of 11 of them I got 8 they on veggie stage seems like they ain’t growing I top them maybe to early ? And I got 3 photoperiods and 4 auto flowers I give them all them same nutrients and light

4 little seedings in a 4x4 . Man....I know what you mean . After 7 years, I'm getting my basement inviroment down . And being thrifty doing it .
So do you still grow outdoors or your only indoor now
I fill my 4x4s about 3/4 full with 6 plants per 4x4 in 3 gallons. Rooted clones veg approximately 2 weeks. The 3 week stretch helps finish filling the scrogs.
I veg usualy anywhere from 2-4months
I got a couple i am doing right now on 18/6 and plan on going until summer 2024 for outdoor backyard med growing
Vegging for too long can lead to having lots of fongi or even root rotting , small plants are easier to manage move around and the trimming part is usually easier too.
Fungi? that would be a good thing. Dr. Elaine Ingham say you should have a high F/B ratio. More like a forest
Love the passion in your voice Scotty, when you explain the plants come from Alaska to Africa!! That's the key, true love for the ladies.😊

@@jerelllawrence1986 As much as I can be. At times I use cal/mag and a silica supplement that might be synthetic/salt based.

... I tend to grow a indoor monster , my last one I vegged for around 10 weeks, 9 litre plastic airpot,Coco ( no pgrs added 🤮) & a 750w max double ended bulb light & she dropped 36oz (over 2 weeks dry) 🌱
I need your help with my setup. Can I asks you a question?
@@eaglehigh-h3e if that's aimed towards myself? Then sure thing ask away 🌱👍👍🌎
I veg 6 plants in 10 gallon fabric pots using coco coir for 12 weeks in a 5x5 that I also flower in under an 800w LED. Train to keep them low, even and bushy. I usually have a 5-6 month grow cycle, so two grows per year and generally 2.5-3.5lbs per harvest dry weight.
I run clones of two glookies and gorilla zkittlez mothers that I bred out and pheno selected.
Hey from Australia can't wait till you'r products become more available people are charging 200 AUD for the small bag
I do screen of green. Typically veg for 1 month. Starting the screen as early as 2 weeks. I’m in a small tent and do 2 plants.
means nothing if you dont say from seed or clone.
Depends on how many plants, how much space you’ve got. Bout to hunt a couple packs in a 5x5 gonna give em maybe 2 weeks 18/6 since I know both parents stretch pretty hard. Besides I’m almost out of my last harvest 😅 so less veg time = weed sooner
I veg for three months from seed, so I have nice mature plants that will maximize resin production. Unfortunately, when you flower under 60-65 days for an indica or less than 70'75 for a sativa, your resin production will take a hit. Fron colonel I flower at the height and age I choose as the colonel are considered to be the same age as the mother so they are already mature. I never keep a mother more than a year and a half as they will start to develop problems and suseptabilities around the two year mark, anuals get confused when their life span is extended too much as they are programed to die every year.
front colonel? From colone
clone, good lord, why can't I spit that out this morning, I'm off to spelling school, good day.
The 3 months vege you do. Does it include seedling time?
@marcus9x9 Sometimes, other times, I'll let them go four months. I prefer very mature plants for flowering. The resin production is better that way. I'm talking from seed though, clones are usually good to go as they are already considered to be as old as the mother plant.
I can promise you that's not true, and I can put any of my flower to comparison, I have tested over 34% total cannabinoids and up to 7% terps. I usually never veg that long mostly 4 to 5 weeks max.
Good show...thanks for the informaion
I'm growing 2 cindys in a 5 x5 . They been in veg for twelve weeks,and i have every square of the first net full. Im ready to install the second net ,and flower these girls. Should be epic.
This video helped me out a lot. Now I have a better idea on how to utilize my setup.
Great content. I'm going through and watching a lot of stuff. I love it. You gotta get a camera mount that isn't attached to the table. It's like a found footage/shaky cam sometimes. haha.
Im in nine weeks of veg right now which is my average veg time minimum 10 weeks maximum. It all depends on size if I think they are behind in size I let them veg longer. Because at 9 weeks of veg my plants are just now hitting that groove of filling out and getting some size on. I keep all my plants bushy and squat. They thicken up in flower real fast. Average grow from seed to harvest 130 days give or take a few. 12 to 15 days dry time. No hurries no worries.
Veg for 2 weeks after rooting than 6-12 weeks bloom depending on strain
I had monster cropped clones given to me and it took 4 weeks to re vedge and there 6 weeks into good vedge now. There Blueberry Jiu-jitsu so it's going to be so worth it
Depends on available space and what medium you are using. Benifit s to both. Personally, I like growing big girls.
I grow bushes the size of a outdoor hedge in width. That's about 12 weeks in a aeropnic setup. I make sure I use up all my real-estate I snip my plants young and make sure the grow out not up this way I can flower the complete plant.
I've had 4 plants in 3 gal pots in my 4x4 x 6 hi tent and right now, I have 2 plants that FILL my tent in 3 gal and look like a SOG! (too long in veg trying dif. LST) I may regret this goofing around, and spent 2 weeks screwing with the lights trying to get the schedule right on 12's so they didn't go to flower when I wanted them to (they are going now finally) so it will be interesting. This grow has been in veg now for 9 weeks.
New sub! Love the show bro!!😎👊🏾🌱
Typically i veg 8wks, but i recently veged 1 od my plants for 6weeks, and it out grew the 8wk veg plants in yeiled, etc
My brother and I have been keeping a blue dream cutting going that can fill half a 5x5 on stretch. It’s crazy. Then I have a personal fav that short and stout.
Veg according to the area available. I grow in 2 x 4s so it seems to work out to be about a 36 day veg until flip to fill space during flower
Same. I flower In 2 4x4 gorilla tents
I like 6 3 gallons per 4x4 . By time they clones rooted and vegged 3 weeks I flip and the 3 week strech fills the canopy.
36 days from seed wow. o wait you failed to mention if from seeds or clone so we just have to guess.
@@PNWHerb sorry about that! 36-40 days from germination my plants tend to be about 18-20 inches high and 12-15 inches in diameter. Within the three weeks of flower they usually fill all available space with two plants in a 2 x 4. There is some variation between cultivars
I'm trying for 50% of my square footage to be full before flipping to flower.
If I'm doing full scrog it may be a lot longer.
There are so many variables but the 50% canopy so for me in a 2x4 I would have to have a 2x2 area of canopy before flipping to flower.
But again so many variables.
In the end it's trial and error. Not two people grow exactly the same way
Depends if im hand watering in an R&D tent or running an automated Drip system. Comes down how im set-up, clone or seed, a # of things like you said. My ideal set up is 1-2gal and crop steering so 1-3 weeks from clone turn and burn.
My indoor grows i usually veg for 2-3 months , mainline is must for me cause of the 2x4 tent but i yield alot , this summer however im getting a larger tent so i can start growing 3 months before moving them outside which ill end up having giant trees for my outdoor grow season lol
I try for 8 weeks but if it's showing a deficiency or toxicity i'll hold off on flower till i get it straightened out so could be ten weeks
Keep small moms and cut clones! I grow tons of long flowering sativas in 5' space. You can get them at any size with some work
8 -9 weeks if I got one plant 4 weeks for tent full of plants I usually run indoor during winter one from seed take clones at week 7 flower it then put clones in flower tent and flower them off
Save using 25% light 6 weeks then 50% 3 weeks then 75 etc etc.
45 days the last 15 days are for preparation ipm nutrition deficiency correcting the plants health before harvest
you ever veg your plant at 24/7 for 4 weeks then . then no light for 1.5 days then put them to 12 hr . flower.. that was for a 8X8 room with 35 plant in 8 inch pots
Salute on the smart move to start your own podcast.
Since I clone mine I have to wait until I have enough branching before I can flip the photo period, usually five to six weeks.
Great information. Thanks for the content.
Veg for one month flip to flower to finish.
When does veg week 1 officially start after bean pops
means nothing if you dont say from seed or clone.
I have been vegging for about 8 weeks, but I am going to try a sea of green next round to see what it is like. I use a 5 x 5 tent now, for the last round before that a 2 x 4 closet. In the closet I almost had to use 8 weeks.
Love these videos help me daily !!
When you flip to flower do you have to keep the lights at 12 12?
yes or 11 on - 13 off
mine isn't really time based, more size and shape, top out and get some some spread then flip...
I'm new 🙂
What is considered Day 1 of Veg ? 3,4,5 nodes ? Or the day it pops out of the soil ?
the day it pops out the soil is day one.
I'm in 7th week of vegetative stage of Blueberry Cheese in a 2x2x4' indoor grow tent.
I do lights off for 72 hrs.befor i flip to flower.plants start flowering 5 or 6 days.wife and i combined can grow 12 plants gotta 10'x23'roon decked out so we grow big plants 4 to 6 oz.bud per plant.prefer cloning to useing seeds.
Never tried lights off before flower. Is it worth it?
No veg for the last 4 runs and it’s been great
From seed to 6 inch’s could be 3 weeks. Ad 3 or 4 more weeks cut the top and 2 high 2 wide❤
Depends on seed or clone also. You can start flowering clones sooner than a seedling
the only person that is a actually grower congrats Chris
I change the length of veg depending on which strain I'm growing, currently I am growing a white lavender hybrid I cooked up 5-6 years ago, I try for 12-18 inches in height for my flip over to flower, some take longer, but, heck, I'm worth it.
I started breeding my favorite strains...now iI have plenty beans and even though trei reg. Beans the female to male ratios are 90 %
I'm at almost 2 months now I'm going to flip it in the next day or two 😊
Hell yeah, you're getting to the good part of the grow!
Growing out of 2 4x4x7 tents. I always mainline to your point about yield per square footage. Makes for a better yield and a more efficient grow. Roughly 8-10 weeks in veg before I flip to flower. One grow over the spring summer months yields enough herb for me for the next year with some to share. Thanks Scotty and be well my fellow growers!
Truth is depends on what ur growing that’s fact don’t care what anyone says it’s a bit less diverse with modern genetics polyhybrids shit that’s beeed for our modern usual grower but once u get into exotics heirlooms “landraces” the game changes all together some like my newest strain if you veg past 4-6” you’ll run out of canopy space no question that one is a flip from seed drop and u still fill a whole 6x6 of the one version I have a few that stay smaller in hoping to get out to a Michigan grow show and hand out some of my genetics for everyone to enjoy mostly thin leaf is my thing I’m old school though but am working on some broad leaf stuff have a nice chemdog 91 cross haven’t tried those f1s though but anything I’ve pollinated my male Sri Lankan heirloom sativa with has had solid stability even with f1s very racy
i vegg 4 to 6 weeks depending on the plant
this means nothing as you fail to mention from seed or clone.
Best way I ever grew was right from rooting clone straight to 12 12 ..
9 plants per 4x4’ space!!! Perfect balance imo
Question for you...are grow dots organic? Been loving the recharge really contemplating switching to grow dots!
I veg for a long time at least until I thank the tree will be healthy enough to hold the buds
Know your space know your strain and always watch the plant you will know when she ready to flip
Great advice, i like 7 to 8 week veg for trees.
@PNWHerb both. A longer veg will get you a bigger stronger plant.
wow Ken so growing longer makes a bigger plant?@@kennethosborne8359
Trying something new, instead of the usual 4 week veg, I am trying 1 photo with 3 autos. Will be topping the photo, with some LST too rope in growth.
Mephisto GWK autos, and a Double Chocolate photo
i go by height not weeks ...so i flip when plants get to 16 to 2 ft tall...i have 8*4*6-1/2...i try to get the most out of my tent
my GMO x Swayze flipped at 15 inches and harvested at 5 feet 2 inches
.... it depends
Am glad to hear this cuz I swapped a couple to flowering at 3 weeks in and wondered if I made the right choice. I am also in 2x4
I wonder how tall the granddaddy purple stretches during flower, my tent is a 4x4x6.5, how long should I veg before flipping to flower?
6 weeks, 2 plants in 5 gal. bags will fill a 2×4 tent. 10 weeks for 1- 10 gal. plant in a 3×3. Scrog baby.
means nothing if you dont say from seed or clone.
@@PNWHerb Sorry, seed. Starting from when the seed comes out of the pack.
Always seem to be guilty of overvegging. Gets me ito to trouble at times.
Hey scotty man. All the best from ireland. Im screwed bri hv stage 4 brain mets . Im doing well tho bro. Twi years in. 7 tumors killed un my brain. Big seizure last week tho and i have two small girls. Ireland is lame man. Interesting content. Mucb love
I have a question, great info btw, so my question is…… I’m have a plant growing out side, does this mean that I’ll just have to leave it to do its own thing? Or will it just go into flower its self? It’s an auto cookies Kush. Hope some one can help. Thanks 🙏
Scotty!
I have 6 3 gallon pots in a 2x4 I just passed a month in veg I think I’ll let them go for another week or so then flip
Veg varies from seed or clone, no?
Im a beginner and I need help with my plants out of 11 of them I got 8 they on veggie stage seems like they ain’t growing I top them maybe to early ? And I got 3 photoperiods and 4 auto flowers I give them all them same nutrients and light
