300W LED Shootout: 12/12 From Seed - Featuring Super Silver Haze

[Bassman59]

hrmmm.. I am interested in possibly stepping up in some form maybe after I finish this grow and get my current clones into flower. But I wouldnt have any interest in an auto-flower.

 

[Jozo-sha]

Think since I have one bag of the hot stuff left, I'm gonna cut it by a third with coco coir; I think this will ease the burning issues. And SteveHman? Damn you...I've been looking at this now!

Hi Jozo-sha, your plants are looking nice and crystally! I like the color on them too.

Thanks! The color is somewhat false, as I set the white balance on my camera to make 'em look normal-ish, like. Kinda. Oddest thing is, my brain is so attuned to the LED spectrum, I see my plants in their normal color anymore, also, my vision attunes back to 'normal' lighting just as fast!

EVERYONE got a deep watering with ro/di spiked with molasses - buds are starting to fill in at the nodes, so I expect the push to filling and fattening up is neigh. Thinking this, next deep watering will add SSU and Gravity and very low dosage (I'm thinking ¼ to ½ the lowest dosage recommended for soil) - and will alternate with molasses until the chop.

Anything left in the tent upstairs (clone wise) save for a mom cut of Chocolope, a cut of Purps and one of the random Sensi girls will be going into the 12/12 tent as soon as they're about 8" tall. I'll then take my cuts for the next side-by side, planning 2 each of chocolope in 2 gallon Airpots. Grow Wars Part Deux: Return to The Hydro Side? NEVER!!!!

Part Deux Beginnings

Part Deux mommy-babies, from L-R back row: Purps, Chocolope Haze, Random Paradise Girl (Sensi Star/Ice Cream or White Berry), Chocolope Haze. Front row: Purps, Random Paradise, Chocolope Haze, Random Paradise.

As they get grown up, I'll pare it to one of each strain, and those will be moms. I'll decide which strains will be clones for the official Part Deux grow.

Lots of little buds! Loving it.
Can't wait to see those moms.

<Darth SteveHman>
Your transformation is complete, Dirt Jedi!
</Darth SteveHman>

Yeah, bought Grodan croutons, 50l bag of Canna coco and this:

Auto Pot Easy2Grow

I'm ashamed. Not really - I think this will allow me to keep two mighty fine moms

Gonna cut the Outdoor Mix 301 with Canna for part deux, then time to whip SteveHman's watery ass

[Jozo-sha]

Okee Dokee..in the next few weeks, I'll be constructing the pvc/panda film divider for the tent, and pushing the new hydro system through its' paces - by accident (maybe?) I got an additional two container add-on, so looks like I'm set for two hydro plants under each light

I didn't specify Part Deux had to be dirt!

So, I think I'll continue with this one as I finish flowering out whatever is left in the big tent, and grow up the potential moms in the two-by. Nutes? Hmmmmmm.........

XLR8 is having pretty impressive results using the Blue Planet line....I've yet to use them but am considering it for a future grow...

Great journal, I know how hard it is geting things done and recording it all for us too, so thank you a bunch. Just saw the first pic you posted and I'll bet the "A" group does better in the long run, let me know if I'm right and rub it in if I'm not. Thanks again

 

[Jozo-sha]

Heh, before I had so many issues with the panda film, and cooked plants, side B was starting to pass side A, actually..

That said, I'm just letting them finish out with both lights filling the tent, while I start piecing together Part Deux of this shootout.

I'll be updating this journal only weekly now, since the parameters are shot and I need to start over; just gonna show off the bud porn, and call it a day.

[Jozo-sha]

Just some shots of the Chocolope (all now put under one light) and the remaining soil based plants that I'm just gonna finish up under the other light:

Next pics in 7 days.

[Mr. Krip]

Nice job, Jozo!

The buds aren't that huge, but they do look nice & frosty!

 

[Jozo-sha]

Yeah, they're going to be tasty little nugs - perfect for christmas bowls of joy!

I've learned much from this first go round with soil, and when SteveHman and I duke it out Iron Chef Style, I'll be fully prepared to beat him down.

This grow is pretty much just going to be low maintenance, no fancy nothing, just finish up *everything* in soil under 12/12 and get the tent ready for Part Deux. Not concerned with volume of yield or anything; just happy I didn't totally fuck things up, and most importantly, I learned.

+REPS for that!

But, being a hydro grower, I may have to root for the "other side" in the challenge!

 

[Xlr8]
