Juicy Fruit BCNL Bloom Box

[Gnarlednugget]

Hello good people Gnarlednugget here with my second grow journal. It's great to talk to people about growing, I love this site. I hope you follow along, and enjoy.
Please feel free to comment, and share some knowledge with me. This will be only my third hydroponic grow ever. I really enjoy hydroponic growing, it is becoming a passionate hobby of mine.

What strain is it? Juicy Fruit

Indica, Sativa, or Hybrid? Hybrid Afghani x Thai 15-20% THC

Veg, or Flower stage? Veg, cut clones this morning. 17NOV2014

Indoor, or Outdoor? Indoor box in basement

Soil, or Hydroponic? Hydroponic drip once a day for 5 minutes before lights come on. Rockwool cubes in net pots.

Size of light? 125W CFL for veg, and 400W HPS, and 2, 2' T-5 tubes along the bottom, on the lid to the reservoir.

Any pest? None yet.

Type, and strength of fertilizer used? I am using Plantlife Future Harvest base nutrients, and plantlife additives Super B+, Carbo Blast, and Bud Boom. I am following a feeding chart provided by BCNL at full strength.

I plan on rooting these for upwards of two weeks, then a 2-3 week veg , trimming the bottom few branches, and shooting for a single cola or close to it.

I plan on 5 plants this time. I cut 6 clones

I'll watch this

Welcome wannabehorti. Waiting on some roots. I cut a few more clones in case of some failure. Hopefully all goes well.
I used clonex gel. Presoaked rockwool cubes, and mist them daily. As soon as they all root I will put them in bigger cubes, in net pots, then into a drip system.

Welcome KJC this grow should be good.
This juicy fruit is really good smoke. I had a nice bag of the bud, and my wife scored a clone of the plant that produced it, so I planted her late August in some fox farms ocean forrest to be a mother.
I am excited about this. The buds I had were grown organically in sunlight. These should be a little different grown hydro, with a HPS lamp.

Yo g how's your gardening going along?

 

[Gnarlednugget]

Sorry for no recent update sky rocket.
I have been preoccupied with dry brown botrytis with some flowers.

I am still waiting on roots. I gave one a little tug and it was planted , but none have popped out yet. She is a slow rooter. I planned on about 14 days, we will see.

 

[Gnarlednugget]

Hello good people I have an update.

Yesterday some roots started to pop, and today all of them have some roots!
I opened the vent on top of my dome, it will be like this until Sunday.

Happy day here in Gnarlednugget land.
Today the ladies were moved into a 3 gallon drip system controlled by the computer to come on once a day for 5 minutes.
Those girls are hungry.
PPM 140
PH 5.6-6
I presoaked the cubes in the same solution before plugging them, then mixed another batch for the week long ride.
Here we go.
Have a nice day ladies, and gentlemen.

Hey there good people welcome to week 2 veg

Today I changed thenutrients in my reservoir. It has been a rocky week for the ladies, because I have been busy.

I am going to focus more now.

PPM 190
PH 5.6-6

Thank you for dropping by, have a nice Sunday .

 

[Gnarlednugget]

I found some free time today, and trimmed the suckers off of the girls.
They had a hard week because I forgot to plug in their pump, so the only feeding they got was the pre-soak… They are fine, just a bit hungry, but their bellies are full now.
Here are some current pics.

 

[Gnarlednugget]

I am going to start flowering these plants this Sunday.

 

[Gnarlednugget]

Sorry I have been slackin.
Today I switched all 8 of the now 8" juicy fruit clones into flower. The roots were growing together, and they are a bit tall, but thats life.
PH 5.7-6.1
PPM 610
They are also going to be blasted by a fan for 6 weeks, then the fan will be set to a lower setting. Just to make them a bit stronger.
