First Diary - Do-Si-Dos X Animal Cookies - 20 X Flood & Drain - LED & HPS - CANNA

[WrappedUp]

Hi Guys!

My first diary here, I’m often quite busy day to day however I’ll do my best to keep as many updates posted as possible.

I’ll be doing 14 Do-Si-Dos X Animal Cookies (Scout Snacks)
And 6 Star Dawg from Flavour Chasers.

I’m also Pheno hunting the Scout Snacks to keep as my personal favourite and clone her.

I’ll also keep you guys entertained with my cloning / mothering tent. Keeps the thread alive I guess.

Anyways!
Here is my rooms specs -

Lighting

2 X 700W Lumi Black LED Panels
4 X 600W HPS

Air

Out - 2 X 8” RVK-L (1 mainly used as backup)
In - 1 X 6” RVK-L
1 X 4” RVK-L (Backup)

Media

Coco 60 / 40 Hydroton (Clay Pebbles)
I normally use 100% Hydroton. I had 6 bags of ‘spare’ 60/40 so decided to use it up this run.

Method of feeding

20 X 20L Flood and Drain Recirculating.

- I build these kits myself rather than buying a daft expensive kit.
I use 20 IWS knuckles, the pipe and Ts to support the lines of 5.
A 350L Tank
20 Builders Buckets as my ‘purées’
20 Round Pots as my ‘inners’
2 X Maxi Jet Pumps (1 Feeding, 1 Returning)
2 Float switches, wired to each pump inside the brain. (The brain also being a builders bucket.

I’ll be mainly using the Canna nutrient line. Coco A&B, Rhizo, Cal Mag and with the odd switch up in flower I use a different brand of PK 9-18.
Water constantly monitored to PH 5.5-6.5

I also have a CCTV camera inside the room so I’ll also be making a Timelapse at the end for anyone interested.

Look forward to hearing your input.
All advice considered. We’ve all still got something to learn!

Cheers
- K

Here’s how I’m getting on at the minute.

I’m currently waiting for 6 strong Stardawg to develop good roots before I line them up with the Scouts.

I’ve already got the Scouts standing strong, and already topped them ready to build that wide structure. (I like my plants with many of main colas. I have even done Clone Main Lining) I just love pushing my plants to the limits.

The Stardawg will also be going into 60/40.

I’ve also just popped 2 old Blueberry OG that I bumped into while cleaning out my cloning space. They’re now into cubes.
And planted another tray of Stardawg cuttings.

I also monitor my Temps and Humidity wirelessly hooked up to the same line as my Camera.

I’ll post close ups of the Scouts tomorrow

Just for amusement here’s a video of some Purple Pearl I ran through a trim machine a few weeks back.

Colours was unreal

Thank you!

I’ll be making a few changes after this cycle.

I’m hoping to switch out the 4 HPS for another 2 X 700 LUMII BLACK LEDs

I also plan to add little air stones to each pot individually as when they’re much more mature I tend to get roots laying at the bottom of my outer pots. I’m sure they’d love that little bubble massage at the bottom of the pots

Stay tuned guys!

Late night update..

Mind the ‘odd’ leaves..
I’ve a couple leaves showing odd signs of deficiency or deformanty due to over doing the Super Thrive / Light Solution Foliar Spray after transplant.

It’s a genuine mistake as I don’t often transplant into coco, I normally run 100% Hydroton crops and start from that media too.

But they’re still looking strong after topping

*EDIT*
I also 99% of the time do Clone crops. This is the first time in over 4 years I’ve started from seed. Mainly due to me hunting my favourite Pheno of the lot of this ‘new’ strain. (New to me)

 

[WrappedUp]

I’ve only added a handful of photos just to keep the topic alive, all 14 of the scouts have similar or the same style/type of structure.

All 14 also have similar/same leave issues.
I’m not concerned about this as I know full well what causes it. (Me being rough)

Next pics in a couple days will be a huge difference

A big lesson to be taught in growing is knowing when, and accepting you’ve made a mistake.

And then making the appropriate actions to move forward.

Also, knowing your growing methods, plants temperament/tolerance, previous mistakes, and how your environment works helps a lot.

2 days later, all the girls are like different plants!

To say I transplanted these girls into their 20L final pots only 4 days ago, I’m really impressed with their root growth.

Already trying to drink the dregs from the bottom of the outers!

Thumbs up to the scouts on root development.

Here’s a few pics..

Also, for anyone that’s interested, here’s an update on my clone tent.

The 2 main mothers are really springing back after taking 150 clones in total from them both.

Also, a picture of my 2 new sprouts I’m introducing. (I say pictures, the concentrated lense blurred most of them out.) but you get the gist.

WHATS UP GUYS AND GALS!

I wasn’t going to put up a post just yet as my paranoia is still a tad high, along with my anxiety.

But I cannot contain myself, these plants are amazing.

So here goes..

** BIG UPDATE!!! **

One of my personal close spots took a big hit! (They where week 7 of flower aswell! )

I’m all gravy baby.
I went under the radar just for peace of mind.

Seem to be in the clear, so far so good.
Nothings come back to me just yet.

*UPDATE* For the people interested, the plants were removed, the owner was cautioned, and there was no further action. The room only contained 10 plants that I used to Scog. (I’m up north for anyone else curious to save questions).

That’s update one.

Update 2 -

Have a god damn look at these girls now!!

Scout Snacks (Do-Si-Dos X Animal Cookies)
