Member of the Month: 3rd Place Winner
Aight, so brother weedtastics white russian in soil grow journal inspired me to do this. Oh yeah, I nominated him for member of the month....GO VOTE FOR HIM and check out his journal. Any how I spent hours spraying yesterday and hours expandin my "bloom room" today. I'll work the kinks out tomorrow w/more pics. Camera is trippin tonite.
1)This is deep chunk (indica) X strawberry cough (sativa) hybrid, 1 purple kush (stunted), 1 Mazar I Sharif (stressed out!). Most DCSC clones came from 1 mother "Starla". Transplanted in january cut down early june PM (dense foliage + high nite humid), nutrient burn (salts in soil), and I think she was rootbound. She was a a trooper and she did not die in vain. She made good butter, that made some good medibles. 3 or 4 are the tops of some of Starla's girls. Look at that, Grandbabbies!
2)In FF Ocean Forrest, some canna coco, most are in a mixture of both.
a. Smallest pots are 2qt (these will be transplanted soon), 1 gal, 1.5 gal, 2 gal, and 3 gal pots (some square some round).
3)Cutting Edge Nurtients (3 part micro, grow, bloom) + CE's Uncle John's Blend (in flower), CE's Plant amp + Dyna Grow's ProTek silica additive + organic phos to battle P deficiency when present.
4) 1 X 400W HPS (used 400W bulb the guy I bought the ballast from threw in) and 1 X 600W HPS both air cooled (new Eye Hortilux 600W Super HPS). You can see a HUGE difference between the 2.
5)1 small carbon filter and can fan (also cools lights).
6) I keep my tempin the 69 F -77F range
7)RH - can't really say. room is larger and set up is different we'll see.
8)I keep PH for nutrients/H2O 5.9-6.1 (mostly 5.9). Highest runoff 6.4.
9) Cups get 450-500 PPM,small pots (under 1 gal) I feed 550-600 PPM, med 1-2 gal, 700-850 PPM, large pots 3 gal and up 800+ PPM
Sprayed all but one plant (6 weeks into flower) with Green Light neem concentrate yesterday. I sprayed with lights on so expect to see burns on the foliage and/curled tips and ruffled/fringed leaf borders )can u tell I made this mistake b4, only this time I did it purposefully). The spray was to to prevent powdery mildew which I've seen twice pop up (from weird weather throwing off my shit) and mites (been at war with them for months) from spreading (just combined grow and flowering room to expand flowering room) from plants already in bloom. This room is full (don't know how I'm gonna arrange these transplants, we'll have fun with this cuz I'm wingin it.
1st time using all coco. Are all cloned from cloned mothers. The earliest cuts were taken 4/29 and the last of the bunch was cut 5/27. some still in cups.
Oh Yea, no rez, i hand water everything and mix nutes just b4 every feeding (how ever many gallons they take).
**Please note, I started this journal in bloom because this was a thwarted perpetual garden (2 cycles in) that started off jacked up (intentionally). But mites and stress caused by mites and countermeasures caused me to just flower everything, recoup funds, and come anew...the best way I know. Sorry its so long but journey with me so we can grow together.
to my grow show
Here's some ducting and exhaust lines.
One Line is for a constant fan (atop filter sucking odoriferous air into duct through both hoods and into attic) .
The other is the AC exhaust. I was on a window bracket thingie (w/AC exhaust) , but the window was always open a little and too much noise leaked, so I did it this way. *Placed a nylon over exit hole so no pests crawl/fly down while AC is off*. Enjoy
