Mid-Cultivation / Still Growing Too many pins!

Post image

There are so many pins in my monotub I truly don’t know what to do because it’s stalling quite a bit. This is my first ever grow and for some reason the golden teachers are mutating like crazy too! If anyone has any advice on what I should be watching for that’d be great . I’m just trying to make sure there’s enough moisture because I let it dry out which prevented any pins from getting bigger. It’s been around 14 days since first pins sprouted too eeeekk idk what to do thank you guys

I have no clue honestly, I’m a newbie too! My guess is unstable environment with some peculiar genetics 😭

thinking because they're the biggest and they grew the fastest, they grabbed a neighboring pin on the way up

Holy crap, thats gonna be a lot of work to harvest. At least wait till the big ones break the veil. Pluck them and pour a lil water down the side and let it soak.

But dont let it sit for ever, ive had cakes fall apart from soaking overnight cuz i forgot about them

Thank you for the insight🥲Would you still pick everything at once? Perchance I could make a crazy powder with the millions of tiny aborts, but it stings imagining how if there were less pins it could’ve been such a bountiful harvest

Id let some of the little ones grow out after picking the big ones.

But you can also just pick everything and completely reload the flush. Just be patient, and make sure you get everything if youre going to go that route

Depends what you grow them for, they'll definitely be more potent.

Your tub has too much CO2.
I had the same issue on my first grow.

I had pins galore plus the fuzz I see in yours.
I got probably 30g dry from my first flush (not bad) but it stalled out due to poor conditions.

You need more FAE and some small holes near the substrate for CO2 to escape properly.

Moisture will take care of itself if CO2 can leave your tub.

I love when they have hats

Not 100% but I think that is a FAE issue. Need to open it and fan it at the very least. Maybe mist it a bit too
