SleepDog’s Sour OG, Sherbert Kush & Bubba Kush: Soilless Grow Journal 2019

[SleepDog]

So after 2 full nights and 1 full day with the door fully sealed and the new 6” inline fan working the results are in.
Night #’s - 66 degrees still & 76% Rh
( No Condensation Anywhere!!!)
Day #’s - 76 degrees & 60-65% Rh

This camera doesn’t do this plant any justice whatsoever, neither do my own eyes when it comes to looking at trichs.
I will have a loop in hand this weekend but for now I am going to pull out the digital microscope and see what is going on in there.

She looks great bro. Almost there! Caution with RH though. In flower it should never exceed 60%

Thanks bro! It is down in the 50’s now during the day with door closed for several hours. It is getting it down at night that is my problem. I am right against an exterior concrete wall and this room just cools down even when venting in basement air. If I use a small personal heater to bring the temp up just a little will it help with lowering RH? From What I have read the Sour OG is pretty Mold and fungus resistant, which I believe to be somewhat true from my experience now. This doesn’t mean I plan on playing with my luck, I will get this dialed in for future strains and just good overall growing conditions.

I have hung the temp/RH gauge at bud height and it is reading a steady 78 degrees with 56% RH now. I am going to put a dehumidifier blowing towards intake vent tonight and see what happens. After being up in the 90% at night for several weeks of budding without any signs of mold I think I should be good if I can get it down a bit more each night trying new things.

A little heater should help a lot.

I was thinking so but wasn’t sure. I had asked, but it was in the middle of one of my previous novels. Lol
Cheers bro. Heater it is!

 

[SleepDog]

I haven’t had a chance to get a small heater yet, but at bud height the RH was 58% and 66 degrees over night. Daytime it is steady at 54% RH and 78-79 degrees at bud height. I am sure a small little heater running on low at night will fix everything.
I am now faced with another dilemma. It is water on schedule and the Sour OG has only 2 days left in week 7. It won’t be ready for another feeding until 1-2 days into week 8 and I am not sure if I should just start flushing it now. It still has lots of green and not too much yellowing down below. I picked up some GP Rezin which can be used right through to finish, and was also wondering if I should be adding ProCal still?

 

[SleepDog]

She is now on day 48 of 12/12. Yesterday I gave her 2 Gal of water with ProCal and Rezin, both at 75% or so. I’m not sure where in the 7-9 week range she will fall, but I will have my loop by tomorrow and will be able to have a better look at her trichs.

 

[Mj76]

She's close bro.

 

[SleepDog]

I think I might put this beauty up for plant of the month contest. Who knows, not bad for a first time indoor setup and plant.

Not a bad idea mate, it looks lovely well done

The Huge Bitch Sherbert Kush has stretched a fair bit this first week of flower after her last training and trimming session. I trained and trimmed it tonight and will train once more in a week when the Sour OG is finished so she has room to spread her wings.
This first pic is of the Sour OG, and the others are the Sherbert Kush.

 

[Lowrider72]

The girls are looking great mate.
You should put that plant in comp, it is lovely.

 

[SleepDog]

The 2 Bubba Kush have been growing like crazy in the veg room. I had let them get a bit out of control reaching up and not pulling down on a regular basis. I managed to split one of the main stocks last time but was able to fix with some gardeners tape and wire wrapped around it. Yesterday it was the other girls turn to split so she got bandaged up the same.
This is the last bandage job all healed up

I left it for a while and she was healed and pushing through the wire. The stock above and below had doubled it in size and within a week it caught back up.

And here is the new one freshly applied.

 

[Mj76]

Dude that is some legit training on the Sherb.

 

[SleepDog]

Cheers @Mj76 !!!

These bubba won’t be going for nearly as long in veg as the other two did. Probably another couple weeks and they will be ready to go. Here is after their latest training session.

 

[SleepDog]

I decided to enter the Sour OG into the plant of the month contest, fingers crossed! These are the 2 pics I entered

I’m pretty sure she is within days of being ready, and I would love to be able to chop her on 4/20.

 

[Tomuk17]

Perfect time mate

By the looks of things the Sour OG is not going to make the cut. I know there are some very nice plants entered, but not even one vote? I voted for someone else, I find it the most sportsmanlike thing to do!
No big deal, my pictures suck so that might have something to do with it. It is so hard to get good pictures with 4.5’ ceiling and such a big plant.
