Low Watts - High Yield - Let's Smash the 1 GPW Benchmark Together

Thanks for the nice words.

To answer your question, No...I don't feel like I'm being hard on Castle. In fact, I'll tell everyone I come into contact with about the piss-poor service they provided me with. 40% of my actual order and 100% of the "gift" they sent me, was garbage.

After emailing them my initial complaint they did in fact send 3 more CM seeds. Two of which did not germinate, so I ended with only 3 good CM seeds. The 3 Haze seeds they sent all ended up being males. Thankfully, two of the CM's are beautiful females.

I emailed them a second time, letting them know that the "gift" they sent me ended up being 3 Haze Males and that in the end, I got 3 good CM seeds (3 of 5 = 40% trash) after waiting an additional 3 weeks. I asked them if they were satisfied knowing that 40% of what they sent me was bunk.

They didn't even bother to respond.

Wow...sounds like if anything you were kinda overly sweet towards them; I'd have blown a gasket the 1st time let alone the 2nd or...don't actually remember you blow'in one?

Any hoots, enough time spent typing on the infidel whose 1st post in over 6 mos here (7th overall) was that one, lol. I'm so glad you're back, I miss the constant barage of emails to my Inbox so I can rush back over here to see what you've accomplished this time! Young insolent Btard ;-D you've reduced me to saving the last "Reply to thread 'Low Watts...'" just so I remember how to find my way back here fairly easily. So glad you're well; think a bunch of us worried a tad.

I can't wait for a pic update; as I mentioned way back when, my girls are w/in a couple days of this thread starting and 1/2 through flower of said young'ins & I'm having visions of glander (albeit aside a bit of stress/frustration, lol,) so rightfully should be humbled...need to see some picks of their distant said cousins yon idiot imbecile claimed your malfeascence towards said 40%'s (ahem, yes, 2 gals outa 5 is 60% bunk-not 40%) foster care parents.

In short, given my selfishness and curiousity, I really need to see: 1.) the experiment of this thread's pics; ie, isn't it close to time for the true initial table to give us all a clue; and 2.) also the two surviving females that probably only chose that sexual preference due to your skillful attention (atleast its safe to say they're not as likely to be hermies seeing as that seed house obviously only sells men,) so as I can selfishly compare them to my like aged infants.

Btw, you actually were way to hard on them; I'm sure they mentioned that in their response to your email concerning their product....check your Spam folder as your Inbox may need be set to recieve from noreply@maleseedbunk .com

Any hoots, pics would actually make my day and seriously....glad you're well; hope you enjoyed my ramblings ;D
 
Fied, i am now rereading your journals and confirming what i have learned from you, and i started the first 5 they almost going to 12 12 and i just got some AMS seeds that Cult has been asking everyone to try i had a which for that or the Booba kush but from what cult is doing with this plant i had to get it and see first how it does hempy style and might take some outdoor as it gets cold quick here and humid she can make it, so i am on page 40 or so again just laughing my ass off at some and leaning from most, just wanted to thank you for everything you do every moment you spend on here is much appreciated if not returned directly i am sure it will reach you somehow.
and one comment on the Gren house seeds, this is my third order of seeds, first was nirvana and then sensi seeds, the nirvana and sensi seeds were tiny and 50% success on them, but these AMS seeds are big and nice color, plus the little toys from them, love them my next order is with them, but i will just go to amsterdam and buy some directly soon i just have a very limited space, closed a lil CO2 and fieds golden knowledge, i wanna get the BPN but the shipping for me is much more than the cost so i wait a family member will be coming from the USA and i will have some of those goodies.
Happy growing everyone i m super exited to have the AMS, too bad cult is not around to tell him i will try anyhow his journal.
Thans again Fied bro i wanna start a journal but i am very paranoid this place treat weed like heroine in the commun wealth states haha, so i will hit you up if need be a few question lets hope not i have made enough mistakes already.

Thanks for the kind words. I had posted that I would rarely update the journal in April and a portion of May but I do appreciate the concern from the community. This site is my home and it has the very best MJ community online. I've made many friends here and although I don't comment a ton in grow journals, I do browse and appreciate the work of others.

The April table was supposed to start the baseline data in regards to harvest/GPW but I've dealt with a black stress ring that has hindered my runs to the point that I refuse to log data until it's resolved because it stunts the plants. I've tried EVERYTHING and cannot figure out why it's happening. It's strain related to Snow White as the Critical Mass moms are big enough that I've already cut 3 clones to make more mothers. They were dipped in gel, did not wilt, and showed no stress ring. They also rooted beautifully.

I've decided to phase Snow White completely out because of this. I even have all the products from BPN's High Yield package on hand but will not introduce them until I get the Snow White phased out. This stress ring has really hurt my hauls in the last 4 months.

Also, I'm considering running less plants per table. I'm finding (at least with Snow White) that the 6' rail spreads the light out to the point that the weight of the SOG plants really suffer. I'm considering reducing the number of plants on each table from 154 to 100 to increase the mass per cola. I haven't been able to log accurate data or introduce BPN's new products because I'm dealing with the fucking stress ring in a lot of the plants. There's been no way to get a true and accurate baseline. Thankfully, I don't have this problem with Critical Mass and as soon as the phase out/in is complete, I'll be able to truly log some data for everyone.

I'll provide some pics tonight.

Thank you for the kind words. Good luck with your AMS! You're always welcome here and feel free to ask any questions you might have. I'll do my best to answer and if I don't know the answer one of the many talented growers who follow along, likely will.

Please stop back by and partake in the discussions.

Good Growing
 
Looks like I got lucky and caught up the same day you posted :)
Doubt that will happen again this month! :blalol:

I'm excited to see how you do with the new strain. That's one that caught my eye before, but didn't order.
 
Hi 420fied,

So I finally started my grow and followed your directions on germing the seeds. Worked like a charm and the 3rd one just popped its tap root. So 100% of germing following your method. :thanks:

One question I have though is this:

After a few days in the Bacco mix, a baby finally emerged but now I'm wondering what to do. Do I keep the baby moist or just keep it wet? How much water should I give it? Should I keep it under a light? When do I begin adding jack's classic with some superthrive? Sorry for all these beginner questions but that's where I am and just hoping for some additional guidance.

Anyways, here's a pick of my Sour Diesel baby. My first. I have a Diesel Auto baby that should be popping out of the Bacco tonight and a Kosher Kush that will be moved into some Bacco tonight. So some beginner guidance would be great.

I also finally figured my water pH was 8.0 and ppm is 235 out of the tap. Does this sound ok? I purchased some pH down and hopefully that'll do the trick.

Thanks again!
 
Hey 420fied. 2 posts in 2 days, whoed a thunk it! :winkyface:

A question occured to me last night in regards to my new light mover, so I thought I would run it by you for your thoughts. To me, you're the mover expert, so...

Does your mover have a delay at the ends? I have the AgraMover Plus (I think that's what it's called). It has a little knob to adjust the delay at the ends. Do you think longer or shorter is best? My light is traveling ~6 ft in case that would affect how long the delay should be. Also, my reflectors are orientated perpendicular to the track, ie the bulbs are opposite the track. I have two large AAWs on the mover. The cover the width of the room with very little room on the edges. I have the AAW on their widest setting, so they are throwing good light over ~2/3 of the grow space without the mover.

Thanks in advance for your opinion on the delay. :Namaste:
 
Good to see you back fied! My plants are 10 weeks in and I'm getting ready to harvest; 2 liter hempies like yours. I know you said you flush 3 days and wanted to know if you water with about 2 liters everyday for that time period or big the first watering n then like 8 oz other 2 days? BTW some porn for ya I was starting to think my buds are crap bc they look so leafy but just out of curiosity I did a mini trim and look what I uncovered...

Ph your water to 6.5.
Don't feed the baby any food for the first 14-17 days.
Keep the medium around the baby moist but don't drench her. You want the roots to search for water. Obviously you want to keep the newly sprouted baby under a light.
Browse this site. There's lots of how to's on growing.

Good luck my friend.

My rails have delay settings from 0-60 seconds. I have found a longer delay to be better. 45 seconds is a good starting point. Good luck with your setup.

Those fatties look awesome! Congrats!

To answer your question, I water big on all three flush days.

May all your nugs be dense.
 
Hi folks,


Sorry for the lack of pics over the last few weeks but it's been a busy spring for me.

Here's the May table (77 plants) that comes down in a week.

Here's the June table at 2 weeks in

june13table_day15.JPG


The majority of July's clones (all Snow White)

Here are my Critical Mass moms. The older one is from the initial order and the second came from the additional seeds that were sent 3 weeks later. I've already cut 3 clones that are buried. Two will become mothers and the 3rd is going into the flower room.

They're showing an Indica dominant pheno and I'm tickled with how they're forming up. They also root beautifully in the cloner and show no ill effects when dipped in gel.

Also, I have 3 holes dug and within the next few days I'll be transplanting some plants outside under the big HPS so you guys will get to see a little guerrilla grow sideshow. I'll be sure and take pics.


Anyway, look for more regular updates as things get back to normal as I am now making the transition from Snow White to Critical Mass.

Good Growing everyone.
 
I was able to sneak away last night and transplant 3 moms out under the big HPS.

They look rough due to the transport(they were covered) and the walk in, but they'll recover nicely. I'm curious to see how they turn out. Here's a couple of pics from last night.

I'll sneak back in a month or so and snap some update pics.
 
You've inspired me to do another guerrilla grow this year.... 4 moms lucy, wild thai, royal purple kush,blueberrygum been under the big ole hps and looking great!
