Looks like they are fruit flies

Use sticky traps to try and remedy the issue first. I found some single sided ones that I affixed to the grobo walls using small magnets. This will aid you in monitoring the issue so you can better determine if it’s isolated or if it’s infested prior to taking more dramatic steps toward remediation.

Keeping an eye on it, so far its just 1, I’ll add a DIY fruit fly trap in there (small bottle with dish soap and vinegar) just in case. Actually I’ll leave it out side the gobo, dont want to attract more inside of the grobo lol

also just purchased the sticky paper, thanks

Late Vegetation (Day 10 / 15)

Installed the scrog, hoping to use this to slow down the more dominant branches so the rest can catch up.

Looking good Vic, great light penetration and greener than ever! Boy is she going to stretch! :star_struck:

Late Vegetation (Day 14 / 15)

As I’m working to manage the dominant branches and bending them so the smaller branches can catch up, it reminds me of the song Rush the Trees

I am planning on extending late veg for another week after my nute change tomorrow.

Tie down part 2.

Late Vegetation (Day 17 / 22)

Did a water change, cleaned her up a bit, evened out the remaining branches in their correct positions and extended late veg again before letting her grow. Pruning is sort of like popping bubble wrap, I need to remind myself not to go too far.



Then some light penetration touch ups

Hey @Vicc where did you get that dope scrog net?? What are you using to tie everything?

Thanks!!

@Smudgefam, I am using this rack that everyone else on AG got on amazon. I cut out some of the bars so that the openings are 2x2". You can get away without needing to cut it like I did.

And these are the type of garden ties that I am using

I am also using magnetic hooks and support racks from the grobo shop.

You can substitute the support racks with magnetic hooks and garden wire

Late Vegetation (Day 29 / 29)

She is about 1-2" (tallest branch is 12" and shortest is 11" tall) below the 2nd fan and today is the last day of late Veg,

Since shes an average sized plant, should I extend late veg or should I let her transition tomorrow?
I’ll clean up and will remove some of the stems that did not make it to the top when I do my D/F.

If she reached that height with no extension I would definitely flip. She is going to stretch.

Agreed! Looking good, let’s see her stretch!

Actually, I have already extended her twice in late veg. The days are not actually accurate since I had to transplant her into a different grobo. She was sowed on 7/15

She’s been topped 3 times and grown sideways for about 2" on the main branches if she wasn’t tied down, she would be 14" by now.

I got you, in that case it is your call. Risk/Reward: flip now, lower risk of height issues slightly lower yield. Extend further, higher risk of over growth, chance of slightly larger yield (should height issues not arise).

Thanks Vic, she made it to the bottom of fan this morning and I defloliated her last night, removing all stems that did not make it within an inch from the top canopy.

I have rhino skin soaking right now and be doing the rez change in a few.

Looking forward to seeing her take off :rocket:

Transition (Day 1 / 14)

Cleaned her up more and flipped her into transition.Removed the humidifiers and lowered RH to 45-50% with fans.

Rhino Skin half strength
Microbes / microbe food full strength: voodoo juice, tarantula, piranha, bud candy





I also created a spread sheet to track PH / PPM drift and conditions:

Grobo adjusted PPM700 and PH:


2020-09-12 13_47_00-Window

Since this is first day of transition, I will be topping her off every night and afternoon for the first few days to reduce nute burns.

Transition (Day 9 / 14)

Added Big bud (3/4 strength) into rotation and the Grobo PPM looks pretty consistent to last week (without Big Bud).

Took off some of her training wheels, SCropped some of the branches to get them into better real estate and the knuckles are staring to show.


Some photos before small haircut




Mood

More light for the budsites

1 Day Later


I also finally gotten around to moving the rez thermometer to outside the grobo, now I can monitor everything at one location as well as set up my remote camera so I can monitor remotely.

Next, I purchased a RO quick connect water line kit and am planning to reroute the D/F lines to outside the grobo so I can do my D/F remotely and be gone for 2 weeks at a time
