Mighty fine work Meeks! Loads of frost on all of those strains...
Thanks Shady! I have had some real fun growing out all these frosty as hell strains over the last year+! Everything from OGR was/is always pure fire and I still think he has the Midas touch when it comes to picking plants, and the fact that almost every Alien Genetics plant is IMHO on par with or above the frost level of my
keeper OGR strains. . . . just mind blowing when I think about what you could find in a large seed hunt with Aliens gear!
Well done Meeks! Those LADs look mighty tasty
They smell mighty tasty too! Like I said, my buddy pegged the front left plant, which happens to be the frostiest, as smelling like a freshly opened box of fruity pebbles! And the back left plant is getting some excellent purple color that I can't wait to photograph and share tomorrow night before the harvest! Thanks for dropping in Gr33n.
nice tree's and grow skills....
want want want
Haha, thanks DwD, that's what I say over and over again in my head when I am watering these days! I lean in to water the back plants and get my face right up in the colas and just want want want! Only two more days till the chop, I AM STOKED!
whats up meeks long time no see. i looked up jacks ferts.. can u debrief me a little on it.. thanks! everything looks great btw
Hey Rburdeaux! I'm glad you took a look at the Jacks ferts. I am still loving their line in veg (flushing the flowering ladies so no fert.) and obviously it does a great job! I have been using the Jack's at what is commonly called the 3-2-1 ratio. I use 3 grams of Jacks Pro Hydro, 2 grams (1.8g actual) of Calcium-Nitrate, and 1 gram of Epsom salts. That ratio, mixed up with any quantity of water will keep your plants happy in veg and bloom! You could play around with rolling back the Calcium-Nitrate towards the middle/end of flowering, but I don't think it is necessary for good results (I might try it next round but stuck to the basic ratio this whole round). The only thing you adjust depending on size of plant, amount of light, RH and temp, frequency of feeding, is the dilution of that ratio to equal a desired PPM/EC. For example, if I was in early seedling veg (like I am now) I might mix up 10x the 3-2-1 ratio, 30g Hydro, 18g Cal-Nit, and 10g Epsom, and then add it to a 20 gallon reservoir of RO water ending up with a 20 gal res of a little over 400ppm/0.8EC water ready for feeding plants under a T5 or small plants under MH. By the time I am in full bloom I might be mixing 17-20x the 3-2-1 ratio, and putting it into the same 20 gal res of RO, ending up with close to double the PPM/EC more suitable for larger heavier feeding plants in bloom. It is super simple, and the only things you can mess up are the pH and the order you add the dry salts to the reservoir. I keep my pH between 5.5-5.7 the whole way through, more consistently closer to 5.5 since my
Canna coco seems like it is always buffering back up to 5.8ish and I like my runoff at 5.6-5.7 And the other things to keep in mind is the order you mix the salts if you are mixing concentrated bottles of the salts, for example I mix individual 3 gallons jugs of each of the three salts with enough for a 20 gal res, so they are concentrated in the smaller jugs. When adding the salts to the res. always add in this order and no other, and always mix until completely dissolved before adding the next salt: Jack's Pro Hydro first (+MOST here if using it), Epsom Salts second, and Calcium-Nitrate last! Follow that and you shouldn't have any trouble with lockout. I have found that 500-700ppm/1.0-1.4EC is perfect for mature veg'ing plants depending on light source and RH/temp. And lastly, watch your runoff to make sure it doesn't spike over 2.0EC/1000ppm unless you are feeding at that high a level, because salts can build up and a good flush is in order once or twice through the flower cycle.
I hope all that helps you decide if the product is right for you/grow dank with it! Thanks for checking out the pictures!
I just keep looking at the first page of dank damn nice job!
Thanks a bunch Wbwidow, lots of fire around right now :D, check back tomorrow night for new pictures and the last photos most likely to be taken before harvest Friday morning! I promise some purple and nighttime shots!
