Mikedin's 2022 FC-E8000 Run!

[Mikedin]

One of the Hindu kush’s is really fading, buds are stacked nicely

 

[Mikedin]

Girls are all looking happy today, PM has slowed down to a halt, will spray them all again tomorrow night, haven’t seen a gnat in a few days so I think those are knocked out as well

 

[Mikedin]

The auto-non-auto candy kush is doing great today, topped what 2 days ago already showing new growth, so went and decided to top the cookies Kush again, would have done lower branching as well but I’ll wait till they catch up then top all again might go for 16 to 32 tops haven’t decided yet


Same bud from previous post but this Hindu Kush is completely different than the same seeds from the last run same pack too, those buds are wayyyy denser, last run both plants had very airy buds, gunna contribute that to the FC-E8000 I lowered it down about an inch today the seemed like they where starting to stretch for the light

Wow Mike they look happy. Very chunky in the back row

Yeah she’s getting there, getting some purple on the leaf edges, but she’s faded a lot, she’s close to done I’ll grab the microscope in awhile and take a first look at her trichs.

The autos are right around 9 weeks old right now, she just matured much quicker than the rest

 

[Mikedin]

The monstercrop Cinderella 99 clone has re-vegged well, did some training in it yesterday to open it up, little bigger and it’ll be topping time

Currently still in a 1/2 gallon pot

 

[Mikedin]

Quick couple shots of that Hindu Kush, still has time to go

 

[Mikedin]

Guess it’s tea time for the girls, no more top dressing the autos will just tea feed once a week till there almost done.

 

[Mikedin]

For any interested this was the Hindu Kush then the candy kush after a 7 week cure from the last run, we’ll see how the current run matches up

 

[Mikedin]

Went ahead and topped the Cinderella 99 monstercropped clone on all 4 main tops, did the same on the cookies Kush a few days ago, and the candy kush, gunna bush these 3 out and flower them out in a scrog, 2 more monstercropped clones one either white widow or the Congo strain are starting to reveg heavy as well so might have 5 plants scrogged, we’ll see how it goes and if I can get a scrog set up. I have string just need some poles and I can rig something up in there, if I can fly just buy what I need by then or find it

Here’s the Cindy 99 that’s really revenging crazy and has been topped and she’s still in the 1/2 gallon pot, might up-pot her tomorrow

 

[Mikedin]

Well how about an update! Still fighting the PM, been doing spray downs every 3-4 days. Last plant on the far side is tricking me daily I’m seeing clumps but then realize they are trichs. I’ll keep on them, the Hindu Kush is close as is the master OG, little tiny plant but looks and smells nice, once I free up some room it’ll be nice, besides that it was watering day, just plain ol water

Couple shots of the candy kush that didn’t flip to flower and the cookies Kush, cookie Kush has had the main 2 tops re-topped and are pulled down, want the lower nodes to catch up and even out then I’ll top again, this time all the tops instead of just the main 2 it’s getting close now, the candy kush as also been tipped as has the Cinderella 99 clone that’s in the small tent just vegging, she’s getting big and has also had all of her main tops topped, no pics of those today though just the main tent

 

[Mikedin]

Little Hindu Kush bud shot

Pic is blurry, was in a rush before work, I’ll take my time and get a better one, one day when I have time to waste lol

 

[Mikedin]

Top shot of the same bud, again will need to take clearer pics lol

 

[Mikedin]

Well 2 plants came down today, a Hindu Kush and the master OG, removed one of the candy kush’s it had PM all over it again, so she’s out, so there’s still 3 more finishing in there, so I moved all the clones over to the main tent, need to up pot to 3 gallon pots and get them spreading out, clone tent is now the drying tent again,

Due to the PM did a 3 stage bud wash
1st peroxide wash
2nd baking soda / lemon juice wash
3rd clean water wash, here’s pics of the buds after washing and pics of trichs after washing, they both got pulled a bit early, had some amber starting but wanted to pull them before it was too late

Since I had those out the whole tent got emptied, and wiped down with bleach water and then let dry did ceiling, walls, fans, vacuumed tops of lights and wiped down, wiped every wire down lol

 

[Mikedin]

And here’s the current setup in the tent

Last remaining autos on the far side,

Far right is a candy kush that forgot to auto, then next largest is the cookies kush, the 4 plants in the 1/2 gallon pots are the clones of 2x Cinderella 99’s 1x Congo strain (mystery) and one that is supposedly white widow, at this point it’s a guess at best they where all given to me and are all supercropped clones that I’ve revegged

Here’s a bunch of new nodes from topping across 3 of these plants the biggest plant has 16 tops from topping, not counting internodes on those branches so probably more like 25 total tops atm, no I need to decide if I want to top her again as she’s gunna be massive if I don’t do something now. these other plants will need some time to veg before flipping, so now I need to decide if I want to keep that huge one in there, or if once drying is done on the current run move that huge plant into the clone tent, it’s about 3.5’x 4.5’ and almost 7’ tall and see if I can just fill the tent and use my 2x KingLED 1500’s in there over just her, most likely do a first scrog trial, but here’s some node porn

 

[Mikedin]

Here’s the one that was moved outside due to PM, I’ll let her go I guess and see how she is in a few days I’ll give her a good spray down tonight, but she’s outside from now on

Damn PM mixed with trichs on those sugar leaves, checked with the microscope

 

[Mikedin]

All have been cut down, some had some decent PM on them, discarded anything that was really suspicious and did a wet trim on everything to double check, discarded more probably at least 1/3 is trashed but the rest where all washed with the 3 stage peroxide, then lemon juice and baking soda, then clean water, all are having up drying.

Now moving forward, here we have the cookies Kush and candy kush auto-not-so-auto, that is massive lol, both have been topped twice and have been trained heavily already, then we have the 4 monstercropped clones of Cinderella 99 and a mystery Congo strain, possibly a white widow mixed in, my brother in law just grabbed a bunch and these where the survivors, they need another good month of vegging before we move forward to flower, may do a test and put the candy kush that was supposed to be an autoflower into the other tent and give her both of the KingLED 1500’s and scrog her , she’s defenitly ready to flip,

Everything was defoliated twice already, the candy kush will probably get a defoliation then a good spray down with neem oil then I’ll give her a week and flip her. Just waiting for the buds in that tent to finish drying and then that tent will be empty

 

[Mikedin]

Ok went a bit crazy, said I need another fan, so 4 total in the tent, went to family dollar, yeah, they make my favorite fans 20 bucks a pop and I can alter them to the end of the world lol other 2 are having from the ceiling , so went to cash out and they ring up as $10.00, I asked if that’s as right, she said yeah so I went and grabbed another one lol. Also ordered a 13 pack of the rope ratchet straps and those came in today so I was able to individually hang to each hanger in the light so I could raise it up to the ceiling almost, can go higher if needed. Then added the 3rd fan at soil level since the plants are on stands. I also added 2 6” ducts in the ceiling and increased the fan to 90% to get the airflow up, also added the mini heater back in to keep temps in the 70’s, gunna fight the hell outta that PM lol. Burly here’s the new setup, gunna put the freebie fan into the other tent

 

[Mikedin]

So now that the autoflower run is completed here we progress into the photoperiod run, the autos were nice but had a lot of PM issues at the end, hoping to keep that away this run although these plants have already shown signs, since the baking soda spray down after the defoliation and LST to spread out the branches all looks good so far so I may repeat that process again.

*Side note should I start a new topic or continue on with my current one*

Lowered down that big candy kush, now all the plant tops are even, couple shots of her main trunk she’s twisted as hell I had her set to be a LST autoflower that should have completed about 2-4 weeks ago so she’s about 3 and a half months into veg but we’ll see how she fills out. Besides that I rearranged, and there’s also 5 Barney’s farm cookies Kush clones off that mother plant . Then just a few canopy level shots etc for fun.

 

[Mikedin]

Well everyone is watered adjusted some LST and a few more supercrops on the monstercropped clones lol, hit the clones once with spray. Snow starts tonight we’ll see how it turns out lol if I get stuck out of town for the night again like Last year I know I have 48-72 hours before I’m in the danger zone for no water. Wife will be home if it’s an emergency but she’s clueless to the plants as far as care lol.

All that… if the power dosent go out lol. We’re good for heat and just put the generator out back for the wife if needed for the fridges or a tv for the kids to go to bed lol, but I won’t run power to the tent I have 3 fridges and freezers full, the deep freezer stuff can go out in the snow lol
