2nd Grow in 40 years with "Kind" soil!

You may be able to mist your plant with the husk still on and gently try to remove it. Gently the operative word here.

Here is my Sour Diesel that kept her “helmet” on a little longer than needed. I think she was just scared of the brave new world. I wetted the shell with RO water and the next day got impatient and gently removed it. Took 1/2 of one of her Cot leaves with it but she is doing fine.

Peace

@SilentHippie @Verndoc thanks guys…if she hasn’t “shed” by tomorrow then I’ll take it off…believe I had one on my last grow too…

Did like you guys suggest and gently pulled off her “helmet” now she has leaves ! !!

Awesome!!!

Verndoc · January 30, 2019, 8:34pm

Well Done. See my journal. It’s one of the OG’s… Can’t remember which one.

Peace

Update 2-1-19
We have lift off of my Gold Leaf !!!
So far so good…I seem to have problems starting seedings
Im pump to get going with the grow

Been giving the new girls a misting 2 times a day and taking the domes off couple times a day also…

dbrn32 · February 1, 2019, 2:21pm

Awesome! You’re doing just fine.

Kcdaniels · February 1, 2019, 2:24pm

I still have the light turned down as far as it will go and about 30" from the tops…do you think thats still about right ?

dbrn32 · February 1, 2019, 2:36pm

You can probably turn it up a little

Kcdaniels · February 1, 2019, 2:37pm

Ok will turn it up about 1/4 turn…thanks👌

SilentHippie · February 1, 2019, 2:39pm

Just wait until the roots hit that Kind soil. They explode overnight. I’d think you can probably get 2 1/2 or 3 weeks in those cups before transplant.

Kcdaniels · February 1, 2019, 2:44pm

Hey thanks…yeah i saw that in your grows ! It was your grows in the “kind” soil that inspired this grow…can only hope i come close to your successful grows with the “kind” soil.

Kcdaniels · February 1, 2019, 2:45pm

Just re read my post…a lot of “grow” and “kind” in that post…haha…
And Im not high yet…lol

I was having a hard time keeping temps stable so I purchased this https://www.amazon.com/Inkbird-Digital-Thermostat-ITC-308-Brewing/dp/B074NYSHBM/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8 and have it plugged in to my exhaust fan and seems to be working

Bubblehead · February 3, 2019, 5:16pm

I have one for humidity and really like its performance.

Update 2/3/19

Ive been taking the domes off couple times a day and thought I would take the domes off for good now …

Also thinking maybe lowering the light from about 30" to about 28" …light is turned about 1/4 up from all the way down…good ideal or no ???
Any thing you guys can think of that I should change don’t be bashful

dbrn32 · February 3, 2019, 11:24pm

Lowering light 2" probably isnt going to hurt anything. I think you’re pretty good too. Biggest thing at this point is to not over water. Otherwise just get your stuff together for transplant in near future.

MattyBear · February 3, 2019, 11:27pm

Yeah I agree. Just go easy on the water until they get more established
