Are there any hash makers here? What's the ideal temp and RH for drying and curing? Is the cardboard box method still the best way to pull the moisture out? I currently have 2LB of fresh frozen plant matter that I will be washing and putting through some bags within the next week or so. My last attempt went moldy so I would like to try this properly this time around.

I'm not sure if there is much I can do in this case. I don't have a dimmer on this light and I'm maxed out for height. I'm going into day 28. She is the only one showing any signs of stress and the other 3 are just fine. As a reminder: Plant in question: Auto NL Sunshine mix 4 Remo nutrients feeding every 3 to 4 days Sunblaze T5 LED with Agro Bloom 4x4x8 tent She has been a constant problem throughout this grow and has always been sensitive to light intensity. I do not have anywhere else to move her to (1 bdrm apt) Is there something I could maybe cover her with that would shield some of the intensity while allowing some to still get through?

This is my Auto Northern Lights. She is already strange. All research points towards an iron deficiency. Hopefully someone can confirm for me or correct me. PH between 6.4 and 6.6 Remo Nutrients feeding every 2-3 days as needed Day 9 of flower T5LED with Agro Bloom bulbs sitting 30" away at 20/4 Sunshine Mix 4 RH 45-50% Is the best/only solution a flush in this instance? I will probably have to change my PH on this plant alone as the other 3 look perfectly fine. Should I increase or decrease PH?

2x Jack Herer 1x Northern Lights Sunshine Mix 4 T5 LED with Agro bloom Remo nutrients 4x4x8 tent Not much to share, but I have made an interesting observation with this light. Every plant I put in the back right corner starts with these large long leaves and maintains an odd lean to the left all through its life. This Jack Herer is doing the same. I would love to get a Par reading at some point before upgrading my light in the near future. Anyway, day 13 from germination is underway.

This light is large and awkward and I will eventually get a better one for the space, but for now I am racking my brain to get another 7". Any handymen/women have ideas? I need to raise this a bit but the wire is too long and I cant figure out another safe way to do this. Edit: mainly for the end of flowering. I need to utilize this space a little better.

Starting my first auto grow. Made some improvements to the grow area. Picked up some ratchet rope for the light fixture and have been playing with distance. 24" was too close and I burned the leaves a little on one of the Northern Lights. I'm up to 28" and that seems to be ideal. Will be monitoring that very closely. I also picked up the humidifier that Mr. Growit recommended under the Equipment list. I was struggling with humidity with my last photo grow. It's now at 50% from 30% and I installed it lesss than 2 hours ago. Solid advice on that one. Seems minor but it makes me excited to see progress. 2x Auto Northern Lights from Seedsman 2x Auto Critical CBD from Sonoma I had 1 Auto Lemon Kix from Dutch Passion that produced a decent tail, but didn't sprout. I'm keeping it there and spraying the surface in case it decides to show. It's an extremely interesting looking grow. Growing in Sunshine Mix 4 http://www.sungro.com/retail-product/sunshine-mix-4/ under a Sunblaze T5 LED with the white veg lights that came with the fixture. I'll swap to the bloom LEDs I picked up for my photo grow after 5 weeks https://www.sunsystemlights.com/shop/product/sun-blaze-t5-led-fixtures# which is the 4ft 4 panel. My tent is a 4x4x8 and I'm using 2 vivosun 4" fans. One for intake because it's over 30 degrees Celsius most days until Fall gets here. Using the other for out which is connected to a carbon filter https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B01DXYMGOM?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share Nutrient will be Remo Nutrients again with no other additives this time around and PH balanced water. I am open to any and all tips on auto growing. This may be my main way while living in a small apartment. Let's see where this grow goes!

Ok. So the T5 LED I'm using from https://www.sunsystemlights.com/shop/product/sun-blaze-t5-led-fixtures is the HGC960482 model and it came with zero specifications for canopy distance. Just a basic "how to hang" guide. For veg, I'm using the lights that came with the fixture. For bloom, I'm using HGC901445 from https://www.sunsystemlights.com/shop/product/agroled-isunlight-t5-bloom-led-lamps?categoryId=agroled-lamps When I grew my photo's last time, I definitely noticed stretching from seedling to veg so I put them on milk crates to make up some distance, but it's not exactly a great option. I'm picking up some adjustable hangers to dial it in better, but have no idea on what distance is ideal without trial and error. I'm growing Auto's this time around and the seedlings are starting their stretch already. I cannot find any info on canopy distance for this set-up, and would love some opinions. I'm in a 4x4x8 tent growing auto's in Sunshine Mix 4 I had this posted before, but deleted and did some research with no luck.

I can't seem to get my RH above 48 and I'm not sure how to resolve. I had the 62% Integra Boost pack in and it was sitting around 43. I switched to Boveda and it bumped it to 48. The jar isn't over full and the bud feels fine. The aroma doesn't smell off at all. Just smells like plant matter. On day 3 of curing.

I'm reaching harvest time and am planning out an auto grow this next round. I have a 4x4x8 and using a T5 Led from Sunblaze. In sunshine Mix 4. The blooms I currently have in are AgroLED iSunlight T5 Bloom LED lamps and they are 41 watts in a 4 panel. Would this spectrum be enough for the veg stage on auto's? Or do you think I would have better results swapping in the veg like you do for photos?
