Artful Codger's Cherry Bubbly Grow Diary

[ArtfulCodger]

Welcome to the grow diary for the maiden voyage of Cherry Bubbly, my F1 cross of Welcome to the Grow Tent's Cherry Atomic Sledgehammer and Riot Seeds' Bubbleberry. Seeds got wet 12/26/24. These are regs, so fingers crossed that I get at least four girls.

Details the same as my other recent grows:
100% coco coir
Jack's nutes
Ebb & flow in seedling, then Blumats in veg and flower.

Once more unto the breach, dear friends!

I sent the samples USPS Priority Mail on the 14th. Got results in my email late on the 17th, five hours after I got the email confirming my samples had arrived. That's the fastest turnaround I've seen from FF. I assume it depends mostly on how fast the postal service delivers the samples, and how much business FF is doing that week. I paid around $9 a test, which I bought in bulk during a Black Friday (or 420?) sale a while ago.

Thanks, man. In veg, it's 3.6 g/gal of the 5-12-26 and 2.4 g/gal of calnit. After the first week of flower, I switch to the 0-12-26.

Almost Identical to what I use MegaCrop (minus a few amendments in the MC 2 Pt) I ran Jacks but moved to MC mostly because of their Nutrient Calculator - lol - pictured, in grams/gal, (3.6/2.4)I just wanted more info from my mixes (control freak much? lol) Both work very well for Cannabis! and dollar for dollar both offer some bang! I'll be checkin on Ya!

I do the same thing with HydroBuddy. Looks like the Megacrop part A has a bit more nitrogen than Jack's.

Yeah MC's part B is 15.5-0-0, mildly higher. I think their part A just changed too, think its 5-12-28 now? I have a lot of the old formula. (5-12-26) i'll have to look at HydroBuddy

Jack's is still 5-12-26. I think Megacrop A is something like 8-12-28.

 

[Choppr]

Yeah, not sure? I think I have 12lbs of each A&B, so im good for a while, only running my 3 plant rotations...I dont use that much per grow anymore! Im semi retired sold my house- living in a Condo now! (fuc me!) never sell your house....lol

 

[Galgrows]
