Hello all. I am Fuzzydankster. I planned to post this after harvest but i can update when time comes. Currently as im writing this im day 33 in to flower. Im using botanicare nutes which include silica blast, cal mag, pro bloom (grow in veg), liquid karma, hydroplex, sweet, hydroguard. Im also using great white shark (mainly cause rhizoblast is not available around me). Im using a hrdroponics ebb and flow system. 25 gallon reservoir.
I started this grow in my camper as i worked on my building. Which led to problems of its own, more on that later. But now im in part of my building which allows me to use a grow tent. I am using a bestva 2k light (cheap budget). Been pretty impressed with it, definitely does not cover the area in which it states. I am in a 4x4 tent and i could definitely use two to adequately cover whole tent. Instead i borrowed couple mars 300watt led lights to fill in back of tent. I also am using hydroton filled net pots.
Starting in my camper was not bad, however it caused lots of problems with my roots because once a week i had to remove them from the system and clean the flood table. However, i learned to better cover my flood table and prevent light leaks to the roots. Which allows me to leave my plants in position for alot longer. I also should of switched to flower about a week or two prior then i did due to space availability. Which has led to couple colas being underdeveloped. In oklahoma, bugs are in plenty abundance, which has led to a fungus gnat problem that lasted up until the week before i switched to flower. To rid myself of those without buying lots of chemicals, i simply heated my water to 100°F and flushed my roots and flood table. Which typically i timed every week at reservoir change. I also used certain stress techniques for certian things. I bent my plants and used scrogging to help strengthen them and space out branches. Would of helped alot had i switch to flower sooner lol. I also use stress techniques in flower to induce more trichomes and resin. I do this by playing with humidity and temps.
Well im sure i forgot alot. Any questions or what not, dont be afraid to say hello. Im not an expert just and a guy who loves Mary Jane. I will update as i get further to harvest and curing. Since most my photos are saved on google i will provide a google link to the photo album.
Also side note 3 are Humboldt headband. 4th is a master kush but came from a crappy breeder and it failed to do much, easy to spot in pictures.
