Warpupps First Grow! Outdoors!

[Warpuppy]

Ok so really this is only half of a grow journal but, its the good half! Flowering!! (vegging is so boring anyway) With exception of the G13/ATF everything was vegged indoors but put out to flower.

I dont know the gentics of any of these strains 2 G13/ATF 2Norcal OGkush 1KosherKush and 1Blue Dream. They where gifts from friends. I heard Bluedream is Sativa heavy. KosherKush is the 2010 CC winner for indica so Im excited for that.

Im using just fox farm soil and the full fox farm line of liquids and concentrates. I figured they would be good for inexperinced grower. My pot sozes are 5 gallon containers. IDK what roottemp is and currently not really bothering with PH because I dont have a digital tester.


What am I working with. 2 g13/AlaskanThunderFuck mother plants at about 40 in.around 5th weeks flowering

2 Norcal OGKush Just under 3ft. around 3-4 weeks flowering ( out outside at 30in only streched 4in during preflower)

1 KosherKush aka Jews Gold 4ft and 1 Blue dream both in the first week of flowering

 

[Warpuppy]

Any comments questions or concerns feel free to ask.

So I wanted to show a few snap shots of where my bud development is at. Im making educated guess's at where I think the flowering proccess is on each plant so if you thinm Im wrong please let me know!

G13/ATF about 5th week of flowering. The wierd thing about this one is because of shading the mid and lower half of the plant went into flowering 2weeks before the top section.

OG kush 3weekish of flowering maybe 4th.

The other g13/atf in its 2nd week of flowering

The Kosher kushh in first week

and the blue dream in its first week

Again these are just rough guess to how far along these pants are

Like any outdoor grower Im facing my fair shar of problems with bugs. Mites have not been a problem lucky due to having a ladybug colony in my back yard.

Earlier this week I also noticed little 1mm long worms on a couple of my buds. After some research I learned they where budworms so I clipped my infected buds, (only 2 but one was a top cola =( I also went to my local hydro store to get some catapiller killer!. How much damage they have done IDK I caught them early wich helps and I also have alot of small wasp/hornets that are helping to keep them in check along with my spraying.

If anyone else has any tips for dealing with these little moths and ther poop please let me know

 

[ThatOneGuyy]

your plants are gorgeous! Sucks that you lost a top cola though. I'll tag along for the rest of your grow. Keep it up !

 

[Warpuppy]

Thanks! Yeah I was pretty bummed about clipping the cola but I also told my self I would be happy get just a oz a plant. But now after seeing the bud growth and development on a few of my babies I am thinking 2 oz a plant or better is realistic.

 

[ZeCrossJointa]

Your plants are so pretty looking! Nice work. Gotta love Mother Nature! Beautiful

 

[ThatOneGuyy]

Can't wait to see them get all frosty. Just thinking about that makes me want to pack fat bowl lol

 

[Warpuppy]

Hey, Thanks alot guys. I'm doing my best. This really is a fun hobby and one that gives back to you in the end!

 

[Warpuppy]

So I also have one more bluedream 4ft and one more kosherkush just under 4ft that need to go outside ASAP! Im waiting to make sure I get a few clones of each that rooted before I put them outside. Hoping to have them out around the first week of sept.

 

[Warpuppy]

So heres a little update. All the girls are com ing along nicley. I really did a number on the ladybug colony in my backyard when I cleaned up last week. I will now have to start hand wiping with some bioneem to make sure I dont get any late mite outbreaks.

Still a little worried about moths/worms. Im spraying on the regular and inspecting mutliple times a day. So far eveything looks ok but Im gonna stay on top of it and try to keep it that way.

 

[Warpuppy]

This is the g13/atf that is the furthest along. My caregiver a master grower of over 30 years gave them a look over and said he thinks I have about 3-4 weeks left on this one. Hoping for atleast 2-3 Oz off this one. Shes about 4 feet tall.

 

[Warpuppy]

The other g13/atf maybe in its 3rd week of flowering. Hoping for more off this one seeig as its also 4ft but has many more node points that streched during preflowering. I am really pulling for 3oz or more on this one but will see what damge the worms did.

 

[Warpuppy]

Now on to the two NorCal OGs. These are coming along better then I could ever have imagined. I am having to tie the branches to support the wieght My caregiver gave me these as a gift because he did not like the yield they gave him. When he saw them the first thing he said was wow what a diffrence sunlight makes.
He said I could expect a quater to half pound, thou I am not sure if he ment each or together. I am going to assume he means together.

 

[Warpuppy]

This beautiful girl is my special baby. The 2010 indica winner at the cannabis cup! My firend that gave me this said it wasnt a high yeild but the buds where real qulity. Even thou shes 5ft If I get 2oz off her Im be really happy. So far shes developing nicely very frosty at only 2 weeks in.

 

[Warpuppy]

And last but not least the Blue Dream Also standing at near 5ft. I am really not sure what to expect from here. I have read alot of thing on the internet some say great high and a high yeild other high yeild but weak high and still other that its a low yeild with a weak high. If anyone has grown this I would love your input.

 

[Warpuppy]

So these are my babies in a nice group shot (minus the elder g13/atf)

Hope you guys stick around for the next two months while each of these girls ripen

 

[Warpuppy]

So I am really digging the way this Kosher Kush is coming along. It does not have alot of tight internods which kinda sucks as it will hurt the overall yeild, but I think what it will lack in yeild it will make up for in quality

The two plants in the back are the BlueDream on the left and Kosher on the right. In the front are the two Norcal OGs standing at about 3ft

 

[Warpuppy]

The OGs are looking great but after destroying the ladybug colony I now have a battle with mites Grrrr. I think the reason these two are getting hit by mites is because The have each lost a few major branches to accidents.. Gonna have to be more vigil these last few weeks and will probobly go buy a few thousand ladybugs to help out. Any who heres a pic

 

[Warpuppy]

Had to tape some steaks to the side of the OGs pots today. I was getting worries the branches where going to snap between the wieght and the wind. Lost two branches on one OG about 3 weeks ago. The root mass is to nar nar to stick the stake in the pot so taping it with strong metal tape seemed to be the next best option. Used a qtip and some bioneem to wipe down the underside of the leaves with mites. Also called into a local nursery for some ladybugs will pick them up tomorrow. Fights tomorrow night so I wont be home intime to release them

 

[Warpuppy]

Got the ladybugs today, not a bad deal 3000 for less then $20. Couldnt let them out today because I got them on the way to the fights but Ill get up early tomorrow and let them out.
