Tangerine Dream - Chocolope - Original WW IBL - Mineralized Soil Grow

[PotChimp]

I read an article about WW (when I started growing a few years back, it was one of the head turners), and it said the weed was a good thinking mans pot. Being a newb I jumped on a few breeder's cuts of it, and growing and smoking it made me think, alright. Made me think I should chuck this $hit in the nearest dumpster it's poop.
Since then I've been leary of buying seeds just because of a name, and have done research to see how I can get around this. S1 and IBL are the closest I can think of to get the exact thing I'm looking for. IBL is InBred Lineage (breeding stabilized stock onto itself generation after generation). That's what I'm hoping to do with the final results of the Chem D breeding project I'm doing now.

cheers,

gonna be taking some serious notes round here

You'd be better off taking them from somebody who knows what they're doing.

 

[VictorVonDoom]

you still know more than me pal, haha

Until this Chocolope gets over the N toxicity, it gets nothing but RO water:

This Chocolope looks better, but the same goes. No food until it looks like it needs it:

I still need to stick with feeding the Tangerine Dream at least some (the flower growth is weak):

I'm also thinking of taking the middle section of screen out when I defol soon (as you can see, it needs it pretty bad), so I can raise the TD about 6":

Post pics of the WW IBL soon.

Note: I am going to give them all a dose of Great White Shark mycorrhizae at the next watering. It will be the last time I give mycos, and hopefully they will feed quite heavily off the expensive stuff I mixed up in there and poop a lot of microscopic goodies for the root system, which puffs up my buds, ensuring that I stay stoned for some time to come.....

ooh ooh ooh, AHH AHH AHH!!!!!

Twice I almost hit the carpet face first holding in a toke this past week from a headrush this Bubba Kush is the $hit when it cures out

Thanks man the WW looks the best so far I think.

Light defoliation of all 3, 2/3 gallon watering of each (RO water, enzyme activator), and removal of SCROG, as well as a raising up of the Tangerine Dream:

Left Chocolope is N toxic and as a last attempt at health I gave it closer to 1 gallon of water:

Right Chocolope looks better but too much N also:

Tangerine Dream needs room and more defol:

I'll wait a few days before I pic these again to compare;

unfortunately I don't think leaves that have the "nitrogen claw" will stand back up. it doesn't mean the plant isn't healthy though

 

[PotChimp]

I know I won't get back the leaves that are gone, but I'm hoping the new growth will be healthier after a few good soil washouts with no nutes. Then maybe it will start getting as thick as the other one.

Note: 2-11-14, I switched the 600 watt HPS bulb out (same replacement; 600 watt Eye-Hortilux HPS). I'll do both 400 watt HPS bulbs over the next few weeks. Can't find any records on how old the bulb was, and I know it's been about a year.

Tangerine Dream @ 4-1/2 weeks since first hairs:

Less N toxic Chocolope:

More N toxic Chocolope:

It won't help, but I switched the Chocolopes around:

Pic the WW IBL later.....

I'll be chopping both another Free Tibet and Chemdawg D BX 3 clone soon, and what I think I'm going to do is put my Old Timers Haze clone in between these two Chocolopes (it could use the higher wattage, being a true Haze) and switch this Tangerine Dream to the unit that the White Widow IBL is in. With only those 2 plants in that unit, this TD can spread out some. It looks cramped.....

Got a feeling I'm going to be doing a reveg here (White Widow IBL).....
