Third Times A Charm

I got 3 that seem burnt too bad to make the cut for this round... I also got 3 stragglers but it's all good I'll rearrange everything to make the best canopy with what I have to work with....

Tearsofshiva · Jul 25, 2017

They're all from seed and some were started later than others so you can see a lot of variation in plant size.... all the larger plants I topped and have been supercropping to keep the heights down, and I hit all the smaller girls with Nano Breathe today hoping that will catch them up to the larger half.

Tearsofshiva · Jul 25, 2017

Also I have them sorted by height now, once I'm about to flower I will rearrange everything to make as even a canopy as I can

Tearsofshiva · Jul 25, 2017

I wanna flip once they reach 12-13" cuz I only have about 36" total height

Took 14 clones off the larger plants that have 8 tops going... been physically abusing the bigger ones everyday lol. Also that's a home-made humidity dome made of Saran Wrap and skewers.

Culled the baby's that aren't making it.... arranged everything to make an even canopy in each quadrant. Defoliated, watered, and fed veg tea made with Better Organix.... looking like I'll flip in a day or two. As you can see I made one quadrant with just the runts, we'll see how these guys end up yielding

Lights off pic....
Not sure of the order but the spread is one quadrant of the 8 runts of the bunch, two quadrants filled with the most vigorous of the group with 8 plants in each section, and 9 medium sized plants in the final quadrant. Interested to see how they all compare

You can see some nano breathe on there too

I'm gonna flip tomorrow after I install my trellising, and give them a top dress of ewc and neem and Karanja cake mix. Plus order some nematodes and apply within the next week to get an extra layer of nutrient and bacteria production for flowering.::

Scrog nets installed in 3 of the 4 quadrants, ill throw one in the runt quadrant if I end up needing it we'll see how far they stretch.... tomorrow night I'll start flower with 12 hours of darkness, short flower time of 6 weeks. That puts them due at around September 15

Tearsofshiva · Aug 3, 2017

A couple of notes...
Last two runs I didn't anticipate how much they were gonna stretch and I flipped a week too late for the amount of space I have. This run I wanted to make sure I DID NOT do that again it was such a pain in the balls tying all my colas down sideways basically. Also, I was having some sort of Ph lockout issue with supersoil, to be honest I'm not really sure what it was but it caused my leaves to get burnt and fold in half like tacos, starting from the bottom and climbing up the plant. It seemed like my plants couldn't access the nutrients in the soil....
This run I used compost tea, cover crop, and barley mulch and it seemed to really keep my soil active and allow my plants everything they needed. They are a nice dark shade of green, couple lower fan leaves yellowing and no tip burn at all anywhere this run

Today was first 12 hour light cycle and 12 hour dark cycle. Light defoliation underneath trellising, unless plant hadn't reached the net yet then I pretty much left it alone. Now I'm eliminating any growth tips that start below the trellis and I'm hoping my 4-8 colas per plant will stretch like a mofo anything else I'm nipping it in the bud. I trim it all myself so no larf allowed. I fed the a drench of aloe Vera, coconut water, and potassium silicate. I started a tea with better organix bio initiate, bio media pro, bio beg, kamino, and bio floret. I'm gonna water tomorrow at lights on and then drench them with this feed afterwards. I sprayed the room and all the plants with the ipm foliar mix. For the upcoming week, I still need to topdress my containers with neem/karanja cake/ewc mix and I ordered nematodes which will be here in two days so I'll apply those when they get here and I have the containers all set.... Bianca's flower time is 6 weeks by the breeder, so their tentative due date is sep 15, we'll see how much longer I wait lol
Happy growing everyone :)

Today I top dressed each pot with a blend of ewc with neem and karanja cake mix. Did a nematode application, and watered it all in with some SST... its one week of
Flower down and they already stretched like a mofo.

Each quadrant has 720 watts led, therefore if I expect 1 g/watt for each of the two more vigorous sections (1440 g), and .5 g/watt for each of the two runtier sections (720 g)... this would put me at a total of 2160 g wonder what I'll actually end up at.

None of my clones from the kloner rooted, so I did a bunch of reading and I'm gonna diagnose the problem as bacteria. Some of the cuttings had a couple roots sprouting within the collar but once it got the part of the stem that was exposed to the sprayers it was all clear/mush/jelly-like. I've been putting ice packs in the Rez, and coconut/aloe water, which is definitely the cause of the bacteria. I dipped in clonex, and immediately put into the clones...

It's day 12 of flower and I gotta bunch of potential clone sites so I'm gonna try one more attempt to get my next run started from this batch...

What I'm going to do differently:
-Throughly clean and rinse cloned with peroxide, and then maybe a light bleach solution. I also read your supposed to use hard water with the turbo kloner instead of RO.
-Soak cuttings in aloe/coconut water for 12 hours. Doing this will allow the cuttings to draw the sacylic acids and other roofing agents up into the plant so it won't be washed away by the sprayers.
-No ice packs, nutrients or opening the Rez at all, keep sterile.

And here's some pics of the girls...
they officially have buds

Today I noticed there's a bunch of little flies living around the cover crop so I gave them a blast of IPM spray but I figured at this point there'd be no sign of flies after I just did a nematode application. Oh well you have one plan life has another it's all goodie.... I think the top dress of EWC combined with SST made a nice breeding ground for them. Anybody have any suggestions?? Not sure what they're called but they're tiny and look like fruit flies. I think their called aphids maybe? Will do more research...

Started bubbling feeding for tomorrow (24hrs)
10ml bio floret
10ml bio veg
10ml bio initiate
5ml kamino
7mg bio media pro

Notes: the potassium silicate has stiffened my stems right up. Still some flexibility but no more softness or "droopiness" for lack of a better term. Buds are starting to stack!!!!

Gave them their second flower tea (bubbled for 24 hrs in 4.5 gallons RO)
10 ml bio floret
10 ml bio veg
10 ml initiate
7 ml kamino
7 mg bio media pro
