Doc Bud's High Brix Q&A With Pictures

[Old Buck]

Hey guys starting from scratch here and want to do everything by the book.
I'm procuring pots now- how many 10 gallon pots can I fill with 1 kit? I also found Doc's 5x5 square gallon pots actually hold .5g so would I benefit by sizing up to 6x6 for the veg? I estimate they would be slightly larger than a trade gallon.
So excited!

I think you can do 4 10s with the kit. I have done 3 152 so really it would be like 4 and a half 10s I would guess. If you can get the same pots as Doc for veg I would suggest going with them. Welcome to the Mag and welcome to the high brix corner of the forum! If you are already considering getting started with the kit then I am sure you have seen some of the results people are getting!

Hey there OB! Idk... those square 1 galllons Doc uses are pretty tall. I think they hold a gallon of soil, maybe even a bit over. Half a gallon seems too small...
But I could be wrong! Probably am

Does anyone have any thoughts on why this plant's leaves are mottled? The strain is Big Bang. 2 of five plants are showing this. They are day 9 from breaking ground. All in first run soil. They are the same size as their siblings, displaying same number of leaves, etc. Any ideas would be appreciated.

It could just be a geentic thing. i have had one or two do something similar only they did not grow all that well. It is probably a weak expression of the genetics.

Yes,..i agree with ya Yeti...some plants are just one brick short of a load ,..so to speak! LOL!

 

[medmanmike]

Dugs, I was afraid that my new (white) light would show the lines you see, here's another one. I also agree with others who have suggested its genetics.

thicc
pronounced "tick". referring to a usually black female who's curve resemble one of an hour glass plus even more booty than a regular hoe. most often found with a pair of THICC ass thighs

Just had to look it up...

Hahaha exactly. I don't think the term is restricted to just black girls though lol

 

[medmanmike]

Well, the time has come to start a journal! LOL! I've been at this for a while now - 10 HB grows to be exact - but haven't journaled until now. To celebrate my 10th HB grow, I decided to do a major upgrade to the grow room as well as starting a journal documenting the room upgrade(s), new equipment, etc. I welcome everyone to join along! The link is in my signature.

That is a regular size bic... she is the smallest I have ever seen... should I just cull her now? Took a while to come up as well, I almost always have them pop in 3-4 days, this one took a week. But I know they can take up to 10 days...
Why did one of the damn Panamas have to do this? Why not one of the free ones, just my friggin luck.

 

[TheGreenYeti]

I would give it a few days if it was me bud. If after a few days you arent happy with her then start another one.

 

[weenmeoff]

Hey Daj! No way man, don't cull that beauty! She us gonna turn out to be the best plant you ever grew!

You should start a journal bud! I'll sub in and I'm sure much of the crew will too!

Hey there Ween, ah man... I may start a journal for my next one. But not feeling it right now, things are kinda hectic. But when things smooth out, I will definitely give it more thought. Thank you for the encouragement Ween!

Man I hate time change, I really want my garden coming on when I had it coming on. Any way to go back an hour on my flower tent timer without causing light stress?
