Thanks to your show, pretty much, I now know how to get through a grow, and I appreciate the more advanced stuff, but I find refreshing with basic stuff to be like doing reps 🤳

[@JustinHappy-ck7dd]

Hi, I recently I replaced my HPS light to the Gavita Led 1930e, and A week later I notice plants branch is turning purple, is this the sign my plant getting too much light? Distance from light to plant is 3 feet, flowering stage week 5 , Day temperatures 75-77, night temperatures 69-71, VPD 1.3-1.5 , I have low ceiling, the room is very bright when the light is on , thank you

[@crischalmers1277]

@@JustinHappy-ck7dd I have a question about your VPD. Do you check your leaf temperature?

Right on, man he literally sounds as if he does bare minimum, pretty much opposite of most every other channel, kinda crazy how many different styles there are, Very cool!

[@Tinfoiledhat]

Growing is actually very bare minimal...I use coco and water literally everyday, HOWEVER it's a tiny amount of water and I can finish in 10 min easy. I use silica and maxigrow from seed to flower, fully green to the end.

I'll have to check his channel out. Bill Ward is like that. I love his channel. N alot of things they say don't do. He can do successfully. Like topping autos. He did it on a grow n it turned out great still

[@adamgava4199]

I have watched so many of your videos over the past 2 months, they’ve honestly been so helpful.. I’m on day 2 of my first ever indoor grow, this video just saved me from burning my seedlings with my sf4000 🙏 lifesavers

on my fourth grow now got spider mites last go round. Had some clones in my extra bath room shower and just left them Wow these guys had huge buds. No AC just a fan and a light in the damn shower if it got to humid I turned on the ceiling fan. Best grow Ive had so far. You dont need to spend alot to produce just grow correctly. dont over water less is best....

[@dmo848]

Less is really more. I still can't get my head around that. I wanna smack myself everytime I think of watering when I'm not supposed to. I still think I should be watering every day in veg. Only coco is fine too do that. Soil huge no no. I'm learning I'm learning.

[@donaldotto2150]

I use a vivisun 4--4--8 ft tent, a 510 watt Parafax high output Led light and has 6 separate channels of lights, 1080 individual LEDs. This light emits very little heat with lights filling the 4x4 space. This is better results that when I used a 600 watt HPS. MORE LIGHT, LESS HEAT = better results bigger buds. I used the 600 watt HPS for 20 years this is much better.

[@tonyfeuerhelm]

Too-two-2-much light ? Why are my 6" tall autos starting to flower. Why won't my autos grow more than 14" ? What ? Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density PPFD ? Oh...I don't understand. Doctor Bruce Bugbee to the rescue after watching & re-watching his videos here on You Tube. "I see the light" for what it is, and what it dose.

VPD most certainly exists in nature. Anywhere there is something that can transpire and humidity and temperature there is VPD....

[@turgidity_city3204]

I used to blast my babies with a high amount of light and wondered why they would always show signs of nute deficiencies or toxicities. The moment I lowered my brightness setting to between 25% to max 50% at 16 inches, my plants have been showing off! The ladies spend a lot of time correcting themselves instead of glowing when the lights are too bright. 💚💚🌱🌱

Beginning, and want an easy, great, nutrient line that's an Organic blend? About 99% organic, but a tiny amount of Calcium Nitrate, in Grow, and a tiny bit of Monopotassium Phosphate in the Flower blend. Almost every YT grow channel would recommend this because of their incredible results, and because the company doesn't advertise, so savings go to those buying, and these growers had to pay regular price, no discounts! I believe Mr Grow It used it..? These channels are now sponsored by inferior products and are; given free product to whoever's channel, so it's no longer mentioned by these channels. Blue Planet Nutrients, and their "Farmers Pride" Organic blend was so easy and very clean,, almost clear! Grow- 4-0-1, derived from: High Nitrogen Bat Guano from West Texas, Alfalfa meal, Kelp meal, Fish meal, Blood Meal, Molasses, Sulfate of Potash, Soft Rock Phosphate, Bone meal, and Calcium Nitrate. Bloom- 0-4-4, is basically the same organic ingredients, but High Phosphorus Bat Guano, and instead of Blood meal after Fish meal, it's Bone meal, and instead of the final ingredient being Calcium Nitrate, it's Monopotassium Phosphate. It's sold from them, or through Amazon. Always been $39.95/Gallon for the Farmers Pride. They also have a Micro product, chelated with Amino Acids, and can be bought by the gallon. Same price. Just the Grow and Bloom work incredibly together! I'll add some Bio-Ag TM-7, Humic Acid with 7 Micronutrients, along with a Kelp extract for more minerals. INCREDIBLE NUTES, MADE IN THE USA, IN TEXAS, WHERE I'VE BEEN STAYING. GREAT TO SUPPORT LOCAL PRODUCTS, AND THIS ONE WAS/IS A GAME CHANGER! GREAT FOR BEGINNERS, AND TOP GROWERS!👍💯

[@crischalmers1277]

VPD is a makeup of 3 FACTORS room temp, Humidity, and leaf temp. When you say there are a lot of charts there is only one good place in my opinion and that's Dim lux VPD calculator so if your leaf temp is 1 degree warmer than room temp then the RH is going to be different @ 80 degrees then it will be if it were 80 degrees and the leaf temp was 1 degree cooler. Dim Lux lighting has a whole system for VPD which includes a heat signature camera for the leaf surface temp and it makes adjustments automatically to lights or humidity to bring you back to optimum, it's really not hard to understand it's just hard to implement. I hope you find that information informative, as I suck at explaining things.

Use frozen water bottles , or Use Cool Whip dish's everyone throws away . Freeze them , and do a rotating replacement of them to gain heat control from the pump , & or all the heat sources .
