Late to the party!

[FRSHgost]

So I wish I would have jumped on it sooner but I'm flipping to flower tonight thought I'd at least catalog the flowering. Figured why not take some others on the journey with me. I'll post a couple shots.

Brief background, was kind of just dropped a clone of what was said to be "Blue Cheese" origins considered unknown. (I don't believe word of mouth around here) so after some ups downs and all arounds. I've nicknamed it my "Juggernaut". Nothing has stopped its flourishing even this newb gardener.

Grow method: Dwc
Lights: Veg - t5/t8
Flower 600w HPS
Training: SCROG
Nutes: AN Jungle Juice (adjusted Lucas Formula)
Technaflora MagiCal
Botanicare Silica Blast

Any questions feel free to ask. Thank you in advance for anyone taking the time to ride with me.

Before the Net

After the Net and 4 days into HID

Week of Adapting to HID

Nice scrog man shes a beast cant wait to see the colas on that girl. Should be a good show.
Happy farmin;)

 

[Plasma]

She's look great, well done. In for the rest of it!

 

[FRSHgost]

Appreciate the love first attempt at a scrog so I'm hoping she turns out.

I think she cleaned up nice


And a closer trunk pic


Lights went off tonight so we shall have to see how she's coming a long in the future.

 

[ronvmpc]

What are u expecting to pull? Just curious.

 

[burn4me]

hell yeah homie. so glad you came around to the farm. there is some great farmers on here. and plenty of love. IMHO you should just do a photo dump and let them gather the backstory. we're always interested in the whole set up. good luck brother. and you know im subbed for this.

 

[FRSHgost]

@ronvmpc Well to be honest, I was hoping this first time through that .5 grams a watt isn't to overzealous. So around 300+ grams (fingers crossed) But I guess it all depends on how she stacks. Appreciate ya stopping by. And here and a bit I probably will photodump the pics I do have from her earlier days. PRE WARNING theres like 99 of them lol

 

[DismalDude]

Man,she is a beast! Thinking of DWC myself so I'll be watching this one for sure! Btw,welcome to the Farm FRSHgost! :)

 

[straincreation]

Just noticed your running j.j. im doing a side by side with sensi ab and j.j.. in your opinion how does it stack up.

From what I see it looking good. Ive only run it for veg it seems to give more node stacking. But when I flip I go sensi ab bloom. So ill stick around for sure on this one.
Happy farmin;)

So I'm kinda down today lost 9/10 of my paycheck somewhere. Pretty broke down about it. (heh pun for a smile) But the kind words on here are a good uplifter. Got some extra time on my hands today so I am going to photo dump.WARNING : lots of pics included.

The Earliest pic I have right after I got a hold of her and was no where near ready for her. Never thought at the beginning I would go from soiless to DWC.

About a week or so after those she was transplanted into a 2 gallon bucket. She started out strong and then the tantrum came.

The Next week wasn't much better. I was freaking out and kinda of panicky, pretty sure it was a big misunderstanding of soil less that was causing problems.

 

[FRSHgost]

So before she was dropped in my lap I was looking heavily into Hydro. She wasn't pulling out the following week so.. I rashly set my mind on DWC transplanted at the end of the week

I got her in smoothly with as little trauma possibly, She definitely enjoyed the Bucket more than the soil less. I was blown away by the root growth in a week.

 

[FRSHgost]

And from that point on I started getting sloppy and wasnt cataloging like I should have only snapped a few pics a week. Damn laziness ( Really only 1 from this week what happened?!? )

She thrived still had some issues at first getting the Nutes down. But started training her for the inevitable Scrog I wanted to try.

More frisky this week got a couple more shots than the previous, she reacted nicely to the training I feel.

Laziness got the best of me the following couple weeks

 

[FRSHgost]

This week roots need some photo time, and she just getting so bushy

At this point 11 weeks has passed of me having her and I was having problems getting a flowering area set, which continued into a couple more months

No pics Week 12 took 5 clones though. Week 13 couple snaps, one showing the growth near the cuts


Apparently 7 weeks go by without any photo love, stressing to get a flower room together took its toll I suppose. Week 21 was the pre-net pic, and Week 22 was a week of adjusting to the net and HID
So to wrap this ridiculous backlog in history we are sitting around 22 weeks of Veg ( so unfortunately not the original plan ) As The adventure shows she has went through some toils as have I, but nothing has stopped her and yet to stop me. Thanks again to anyone tuning in.

@straincreation I've really only had a few grows under my belt nothing serious more like a father son project, a dabble with drip fed rock-wool slab system he was familiar with, and a experimental cfl grow we ran a couple cycles of both were just really cheap smoke. Its this time that I got serious, and have put my research time in and started my own playing around. In short haven't ran much in nute lines but the J.J. is doing me well, I did find this particular time that when I was running it the 3 parts that i wasn't getting the healthiness it should and switch around to an adjusted Lucas Formula and had way better results and how I've been running since. Has been running great for veg we shall see if it continues through with the flowering.

 

[FRSHgost]

So I need a little help Identifying this issue that seems to be arising. I ran 50% power on my light until last night i went to 100% at lights off so that this morning it started full power. However, my temp has risen which I am planning to deal with regardless. But I don't know if I'm having light stress or nute issues. If anybody can throw ideas would much appreciate it.

 

[burn4me]

same thing i was telling you about. either N or Mag is what i thought and how i approached was trying to fix my Mag issue with epsom. it did help 2 of the 3 that had this problem starting to come out of it now. the 3rd was im sure lockout on mag for why IDK but i flushed the shit out of her. shes doing better now. but its getting close to chop anyway. and my boy @Tnelz talked it out with me and ran down what actions i had taken. hope we can get this straight for you bro. so peeps should chime in soon.

 

[straincreation]

Koo sounds good so ill have to wait and see just. Just did a full feed yesterday on my ladies they were taken tplanted 9 days ago with straight tap. Just feed um for the first time yesterday . 3 jj and 3 sensi so we will see the results on my next update. I do plan to take them all the way with these nutes no matter what I see. I really wanted to see.


Any ways about your reg. On j.j. I rum 8 ml per gal. Of all three and 4 ml p gal on all additives. This economical I say . Half dose they seem to be happy. Ill post some pics when I get ome of 2 night of growth. Heres what they looked like on day 9

heres my momma

so ill post asap. I know your running dwc but I still would like to see the results. Best of luck on your endevours.
That looks like a bit of mg but I cant be for sure .
Check out seamaiden page she has a couple charts that will hopefully help you diagnose this prob. It could be a bit of heat stress or light shick also but again not 100% on that.
Some zyme should help, also some LK from botanicare. Help with your uptake.
Happy farmin;)

 

[FRSHgost]

Strain sounds awesome definitely curious on this one have to keep me updated on the results. I'm curious how other nute lines preform but for now I got to stay on the cheaper side of things.

I'm still working out my reg compeletly, and I should probably clarify my switch to Lucas was not planned. Short story I use RO water but go out to get it 5 gal at a time. So one rez change I was stoned and not thinking hit the water with too much micro to start. Didn't have time to go get water so I rolled with it ran twice as much bloom. And to my surprise had a healthier week running it that way since. Since I use RO I hit it with MagiCal to start add micro and bloom at a 1:2 ratio and finish off with Silica Blast just about 4-5ml per bucket. I luck out usually check the pH and I'd say 8/10 times its stable at 5.8 so no adjusting. I've been starting out when entering into bucket at about 350 and increase slowly throughout rez changes to stop at around 500 ppm.

Looking really good over there. So happy, perky whatcha got running genetics wise.

And I'm gonna increase my mg with my top off and shoot for a little higher ppm this next rez change hope she comes out looking happy.

Be easy and happy farming all.

 

[straincreation]

Thats koo man run with what thry like and what they need. If shes happy I say by all means gi withit. Dont you love when your stoned and not thinking do some shit that you think is gonna be detrimental and then it turns out to be just the opposite. Haaah ganja:)
Any ways yhis first feed was about 1100 ppm.
As you I run my SBlast, b52, rhizo tonic from cana. Thats it for now I need to go get some LK soon.

Im running a strain called the oush og. I got it from a close friend that grows in sfv and its parents are poision x northern university og. Shes one of the highest yeilding ogees I have ever grown. When I did her hydro I had some of the prettiest colors come out of her.
Ive had her for about 5 yrs now and shes been dormant for about 1 1/2 yrs now so finally able to run these genetics. I also just recieved an f2 cross of her and just popped the seed. I had one last year that was a unstable pheno. :( So hopefully this girl holds her own weight.

So any ways best of luck my friend and keep it up your ladie loves it imo.
I was gonna post some pics but I dont wanna blow up your threaf so I wont. Ill be posting an update in my diary on sunday. To see the growth maybe sooner idk. But they grew a good 3 4inches in 3 days so theres that. I havent been abke to notice a impact yet. In the vs. Catagory. gonna have to take into account the root growth and all that stuff also.
Happy farmin;)
