Guess Who's Back!

[Brett2theMax]

Well its been a while, a long while. After seeing a few familiar faces still posting I figured I'd start throwin my stuff down. I am fully legal as a Caregiver, this is 100% free to all of my patients. Right now I have AK47 going, that is all that has been photo recorded this far but will soon be adding photos of the new girls, Dirty Harry (Lineage is Grapefruit Bx1 X Herijuana), G-13, Chemdawg, and CherryAK47 pheno. The CherryAK47 was given to me in very rough shape, who ever cloned it put her under HID too soon and burned all the new growth so I'm hoping stuff starts sprouting up off her soon.

Here is my latest harvest before I harvested.

Got just under 2lbs off the 2kw lights, pretty low but I've been taking measures to correct that.

 

[Brett2theMax]

I've begun training my plants in Veg to try to get closer t 2lbs a light rather then 1lb. These are currently in flower, older pics. We'll get to the new stuff, don't worry.

This was right after I trained the plant, they look better some times as early as a few hours, generally everything is turned up to the light within 24hrs.

And the family photo. All AK47

 

[Brett2theMax]

All these clones are transplanted now, 12 of them went to a patient so they are no longer part of this grow.

Here is everything that is vegging, these are some older pics, I'll get some updated ones, the veg room is starting to go nuts right now though. I didn't realize it until I posted.

Here is the flower room, I need to update this photo as well, lost has happend. I have a little nute burn going on from a guano tea fiasco I had trying out that method, not quite there yet, everything is a learning process

Trying to get some light to lower nodes here.

This is the most current photo.

Sorry some photo's have been fuzzy, I just use my phone for all of them. I gotta get a good camera.

 

[Brett2theMax]

Hope you enjoyed everything so far. Here are some random weed pics.

Butter!

My soil varies from group to plant group, the ones in flower are Peat, Perlite, Mexican Bat Guano, a Mycorrhizae mix, and kelp. The plants currently in veg have also Biotone, Dolomite Lime and Indonesian Bat Guano. I have Foxfarm's Big Bloom, Liquid Karma, Molasses and Maple Syrup for liquid additives. I'm still working on mixes and ratios for all of them, trying out different methods to see what I get the best responses with.
Thoughts? Comments? Questions?

Nice looking program you got there. You are doing your patients proud. So you are a non-smoker yourself? And with the expense of the lighting and all that is good work you are doing.

Looking very nice glad to see you helping out people in the community. I will be following this grow looks like I can learn a few things here.

 

[Brett2theMax]

G-Dog I just got approved for patient status for myself actually. Patient status offers the most protection so any caregiver should really have their patient card in my opinion. Everything is looking great in there right now, I have to take pictures. Unfortunately last night I got down there to late and the lights were on so pics don't turn out too well. I started out here on 420times with my first grow and learned a lot here. I am more then happy to help with anything I can, if you ever have any questions don't hesitate to ask PBRMJ. With that said, I am still learning a lot. Fortunately I have friends who have been in the business for 10+ years, if I don't know the answer I can find it I assure you.

Glad to see people droppin by already!

Heres an update,

Here is one of the plants having issues from my compost tea that I made. Trying to nurse her back into order.

Here is how the trichomes are coming along.

I forgot to look exactly how long they have been in flower for, I want to say 23 or so days, just over 3 weeks. Projected harvest is 70 days from flip to finish, we'll see though.

 

[Tmac12]

Nice looking harvest you had! Great looking ladies!

 

[Brett2theMax]

Thank Tmac12, I'm really looking forward to the new harvest. Unfortunately there was a white widow that seeded the room of AK47 when it hermied, although I have started 3 seeds of the AK47xWW and 2 of them look great. One of them alternates nodes as it grows, one grows two nodes at a time, the third is kind of a mutant but its catching up. I'll put pics up of all the new stuff. Just got Bluberry Skunk, Thai Fantasy, Acapulco Gold and something else that I can't remember off the top of my head.

Hi Brett welcome back to 420!

Would you happen to know what if any differences there are between ak47 & ak48?

And in your first lst pics it looks like there are knitting needles in your pots? What are those?

 

[Tmac12]

Blue they look like wooden BBQ skewers. You can buy them in the grocery store next to the charcoal. I use them for various thing too.

 

[PBRMJ]

Looks like things are starting to get frosty in there.

 

[Brett2theMax]

Bluedog thanks for the warm welcome back. As for the sticks, Tmac is exactly right. The wooden bbq skewers from the grocery store.

PBRMJ thanks for the kind words, I couldn't be happier with how these are growing but the real deal will be coming up when I flower this next batch. There are a few more key ingredients in the soil that I think will yield even better results. I'll upload a few pics in a min to show what I took today for shots.

 

[Brett2theMax]

27 days of flower AK47

 

[Barry Manilow]

Nice Buds! I hope your ak47 and my ak48 are closely related

 

[Brett2theMax]

Oh yes forgot to address that, I haven't really heard of that. I did some looking at it looks like its a Gypsy Nirvana strain. I'll ask about it next time I talk to him and get more info if that is in fact the case.

 

[Brett2theMax]

Voyager was one of the new strains I got I mentioned in a later post and forgot to say. So the current list:

Acapulco Gold
AK47
AK47xWW (Seeds 1-3)
Blueberry Skunk
Chemdawg
Dirty Harry
G-13
Thai Fantasy
Voyager

Unfortunately these are all young and won't be able to flower for a while.
Today I made a wishlist of the strains I'm going to try to hunt down to add to the collection. Mostly different Kush strains.

Wish List:
Blueberry (DJ Short)
Nightmare Kush
Deep Chunk
Bubba Kush
Cherry AK47
Herijuana

Hopefully I'll get these sooner then later but I may have to order seeds on a few then its a matter of hunting for good phenotypes and females. I have no interest in breeding at this point.
I'll update my thread soon, I'm uploading pictures now.

Update of the Veg room

Here are the plants under the 1kw hybrid light, I think I'm going to swap this for straight MH soon. Planning on getting 2 more lights in the veg room and 5 more in the flower room. Big changes going to happen in both rooms as soon as I can afford it.

Dirty Harry is in the orange bucket kind of in the middle. To the left of her is Chemdawg, to the right G13. I didn't realize that they were so hidden in the picture. I'll get better ones of them soon.

Here is the young plant table, this is where I put things that I just transplanted, seedlings that are ready for some more intense light go here too.

left to right back grow first
Acapulco Gold, AK47xWW(1), AK47, AK47xWW(2), AK47xWW(3)
Cherry AK47, Black Berry Kush, Blueberry Skunk, Voyager
