CT’s Greenhouse Coco Grow: OG Kush, THC Bomb, Banana OG & More, Summer 2019

[CattleTurd]

Hello CattleTurd here, I’m a licensed medical grower in my state. I grow for personal use only, so I’m not trying to break any world records here. But the more the merrier.
I have my setup in my greenhouse that I designed and framed, and spent way too much time and money on. The dimensions are 8’W x 12’L x 8’H. It’s a gambrel style roof, looks like a shed with white framing and polycarbonate panels. It has a huge 2 foot by 8 foot ridge vent on an automatic opener.


The strains I’m currently growing.
Gorilla Bomb from Bomb seeds. 25% THC. Indica/Sativa mix. 15gal fabric pot, coco coir/ Fox farm ocean forest/ perlite. Been started from seed about 45 days ago.
THC bomb from Bomb seeds. 25% THC. Same as above..
OG Kush from Royal queen seeds. 19% THC. 25% Sativa/ 75% Indica. Genetic Background: Chemdawg x Lemon Thai x Pakistani Kush. 35 gal black plastic pot. Coco/ffof/perlite.
Banana OG from Flavour chasers. 27% THC. 70% indica dominant. Genetic background: og Kush x skunk haze. 15 gal custom fabric pot I made from weed mat.. coco/ ffof/perlite.
Critical Kush from RQS. 25 gal white plastic barrel.
All plants but autos are about 45 days old in veg.
Autoflower Dark Devil from Sweet seeds. 2 weeks old. In a 5 gal bucket. All plants have roughly same mix of coco coir/ ffof/ perlite.
Autoflower Blueberry Bliss from Vision seeds.. 8 days old. same as above.


All plants get fox farms nutrient line up and cal magic, and armor Si. PH is tested to 6.0 +or- .2 depending on which nutrients I think need better absorption.. every other week with water in between.
I will post photos hopefully soon. Whenever I find a secure method to do so..

Looks good CT

Nice.

Does anyone have experience with ladybugs used on plants? To kill soft body pests. Just wondering how effective it really is. It’s way cheaper than pesticides on amazon.

 

[Carcass]

I know they work great for aphids,and with the green house
you can keep them around for awhile.

 

[CattleTurd]

Cool. I may let some lady bugs loose then. Do you treat for aphids before you see them? Or do you wait until you see aphids?

Look at how symmetrical I was able to get this og kush. Some low stress training. Can’t wait to see what this lady grows into.

I'm subbed, I'll grab a seat in the back.

Hello CattleTurd here, I’m a licensed medical grower in my state ...

Hey @CattleTurd ... Nice line up. I'm going to follow your grow and I am rooting for the Autoflower Dark Devils since I just got those exact same seeds this week for my next grow.

 

[Pennywise]

Ladybugs are great especially if you can get them to breed. The ladybug larvae are friggen monsters of the bug world.

 

[CattleTurd]

Well the Dark Devil auto is a foot tall, and starting to flower.
The Banana OG is finally getting some good growth for me.
And the OG Kush is growing very well, I am excited for this and the DDA..

BANANA OG

 

[Pennywise]

That banana OG should be a winner!

 

[CattleTurd]

I couldn’t help myself, I had to train the OG Kush some more.
Good news on the DDA, the calyx are purple already...

 

[Pennywise]

Start em when they’re young.

 

[Alafornia]

So OG Kush is a good one to quadline then? (obviously, it is if you're doing it, right?)

 

[CattleTurd]

Yeah. They all would’ve liked to be trained, but I was too lazy and only did OG cause it was the most happy to be alive atm.

 

[CattleTurd]

Life’s a beach, so I added 150 pounds of sand on top of the plants.

 

[CattleTurd]

I noticed their growth while taking pictures.

 

[CattleTurd]

Does anyone have anything to say about Dr. Bronners soap? Using it as a foliage spray to combat soft-body pests, (aphids).

I have some tiny caterpillars, gnats, maybe thirps. So I mixed up the peppermint dr bronners at 30cc (2tbs) to 2 gallons of water. Sprayed the plants down, let it soak for 10 minutes, and sprayed them off with water. I did notice it killed some small flies. We will see if my plants like it I suppose...

Hey @CattleTurd ... I am enjoying watching the DDA grow ... lots of stretch in a green house!

I was thinking about using 25% perlite, 37.5% FF Ocean Forest and 37.5% FF Happy Frog for my next DDA grow, but your soil interests me.

I haven't heard about mixing Perlite, Coco Coir and FF Ocean Forest before so I want to learn more. Where did you get the idea from? ... And what ratios are you using?
