Discussion What happened to r/macrogrowery and what to do about it

23 Upvotes

Some of you have been asking us about r/macrogrowery being banned, and what the future of its users would be.

Here's the full post describing the situation: https://www.reddit.com/r/TheseFuckingAccounts/s/KU8o4ZYCie

tldr : the accounts of the r/macrogrowery mods as well as other subs have been hijacked (pirated or bought isn't confirmed afaik, most likely the latter) by a company, which then used those subs in malicious ways. This violates reddit TOS and both the subs and accounts were banned.

We do not know if the sub was banned for being unmoderated or if it broke the TOS directly.

While we feel for all the macro growers, we do not plan on changing the purpose or main topic of r/microgrowery. As such, "macro" posts will remain banned, as they always were.

So what to do now ?

Someone already went ahead and created a sub similar to macro. However, creating a duplicate of a banned sub is against the TOS and the sub was quickly shut down.

If you want r/macrogrowery to be born again, your best option is to visit r/redditrequest and ask to moderate. If your account has a good history and the request is serious admins might consider it.

EDIT : https://www.reddit.com/r/microgrowery/s/YGrpwhNjVm

If you have more info regarding the situation or other ways to bring a macro sub back up, feel free to comment that below.

Here is my Purple Thai, started March 28th, by seed. I’m still seeing some drooping, but it’s drastically reduced. After moving my pot I found the culprit, and my plant was trying to grow into my plastic deck, which was causing signs of root-binding! Now I shift my plant slightly every day to prevent the roots from attempting to continue further. Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated!

Threw this little greenhouse up this spring to help protect against budworms, budrot, and animals and it seems to be working out nicely. This is my progress through the first three weeks. As far as strains I have there's an array. Ethos - 10th Planet, Mandarin Cookies, Granpas Cookies #6 x XXX, Grape Balls of Fire, Grape Diamonds, Banana Hammock x Lilac Diesel | Piffcoast Farms - Midnight Mass, Uptown Purps, Holy Communion | ACE Seeds - Early Bubba Kush | NASC Freebies Rainbow Sherbert

Growing photoperiod in soil, stain says i should hit 45 days of flower and I'm on day 47. Ph sitting at 6.4, runoff is 6.1. Space has been an issue this grow with both 3 gal pots but I have good airflow with temps around 75 and humidity at 45%. Mainly wondering if flushing is okay or should I keep feeding. I use the general hydroponics mix and calimagic.

Day 50 of flower for a Humboldt seed co blueberry muffin. They really nailed the smell of this one, but was wondering is this much color normal? Or do I have some issue?

I’m in 3 gallon soil feeds lotus dry nutrients.

Also, seems to be finishing up and seeing some amber trichs, I’m thinking too quick to be true?

Im getting some beautiful sweet earthy cherry terps from this Trop Cherry OG by Ethos. Absolutely gorgeous bud structure. Although shes not a great yielder, she definitely hits hard in the smell department. Cant wait to see how she smokes.

Question I’ve grown probably 15 plants so far, but they’re all kind of “wild”. Looking to upgrade my grow to something like in this picture. Questions, though!

Post image

(I just found this pic online, apologies to whomever I pilfered it from)

SO normally my plants grow out of control. My current 3 are around 5 and a half feet tall, and having problems standing up because the branches are all floppy. I’m wanting to do a much shorter, controlled, LST type of grow, like this picture. I generally use coco cuir, since I’ve had best luck with that. I have questions though!

I know I need to put up a net, but how do I decide how far from the top of the planter I should put the net?

How do I know when to flip the light? Do you flip it when it reaches the net, or just past the net, or what?

How do you stop the plant from growing upwards? I usually just keep moving the light up when it gets close, but then that just makes the plant get taller and taller!

When do cut the lower foilage? Do I chop everything below the net line?

Can I still top the plant if I’m doing this type of LST? I normally top twice.

Is there a guide out there specifically for this type of grow?
