DAMN IT! did a big post and my keyboard grab everything and deleted it FML

Like i was saying before it all got removed was with canna as its a VEG and BlOOM in one i find if you use more Part:A in Veg and More Part:B in flower the girls seem to like it only by 10-20% going by what they recommend so if your doing a 5 Gallon mix and your meant to use 10ml of A and 10ml of B

Example
11ml of A and 9ml of B in veg and the other way around in flower

I have been using Canna for some time now well its all i have used apart from my first grow its very easy a bit salty so watering down a mix like 5 feeds 100% then the next 2 at 50% making sure the run of is as close to your ideal PPM or EC level you want

This time now that i am using RO water i am going to make sure i keep my max EC of 1.8 maybe lower depending on how the girls go if i notice burn ill back off so the mix i made yesterday was 1.3 then my next will be 1.5 then 1.8 and that will be around week 5 when they get there PK boost then ill tape it down dropping 0.2 each week till i harvest

I hope that makes some sense i just had a huge session of bubblegum and the more i write the higher i seem to be getting so for now i am going to go look at the lady's enjoy your day or night

Makes perfect sense. Thank you.

Flower 12/12
Day 16

Hi all girls are coming a long nicely bubblegum is a head of the game like normal

Feeding 80 liter Res
RO water 0.0EC
Cal-mag 40ML added to bring the EC to 0.2
Canna Coco A 210ml - B 230ml
Canna rhizotonic 80ml
Canna Boost 80ml
End EC 1.3
PH 6.0

Flushed the girls with a mix of just A&B the other day the girls seems very happy can't really complain at all feeding now every 2nd day the ones in the smaller pots will need to be everyday soon i think i should of transplanted and shouldn't of kept so many girls in a small space but live and learn i knew it was going to be a tight fit i would say there stretch is starting to slow down girls are gaining around half a inch a day now and all around 40" tall still in need to put the net up but ill wait till the stretch has stopped

They are a nice stack going on with the node spacing so i think there is going to be some really nice colas in the next few weeks also another lollipop session has been done another fan as been added below to keep the air moving around the base of the girls

anyway brothers and sisters

PS: going to put a cool white light in the tent so i can take some better photos with out the HPS lighting

Looking GREAT! over here! I wish I could pack a room like that, but I can't I have serious ocd, not
just what people say, like oh I'm a little ocd. but I have to space my plants n shit or it drives me nuts. I envy the full use of space in there!
Maybe one day I can staple my hands to something and do it? who knows. I'm off to take pics of my girls then a Dr appt. catch ya later! Stay High n happy my friends.

Looking good as always bro. I know you and Angel may not like it packed like that but you will get the most out your setup this way for yield. Using all the lumens and not wasting is good long as there is plenty air flow. You will see bro at the end of this run. Keep it up

Indica...you and I have similar OCD tendencies but are just on the opposite ends of the spectrum. For example, anytime I see a gap in a canopy as small as 4 inches by 4 inches I cringe and say "A cola should be there. That's wasted light".

Thanks brother yeah I just need to make sure the girls don't lay on the sides of the tent or will be at risk of mould later on

Like you said long as I keep good air flow shouldn't run in to any trouble

In other news I am only going to run one plant in the 100% perlite run and I'll be scroging her also I just fixed the scrog net up again I am to lazy to start another log with her so I'll just post a photo In here from time to time once she kicks off just topped her and will start lst once she recovers from the topping

Thanks for the love all till tomorrow :weed:

i hear you when I was running that last flower tent I had so much unused space it made me sad that's why I kind of wanted to see what happens when you max it out only time will tell if it was a + or a -

The thing I think about not using all the space and giving the girls a bit of room is you will get the close to the max out of her with out needing to scrog as some of the lower buds will not develop to there max that's why I keep trying to stay on top of the lollipping

But know more lollipping now I am just going to put this net up and let the girls go

I never said I didn't like it! :bigjoint:

I LOVE it, I think it looks great. what I said is I have OCD and I literally CAN'T allow my plants to do that.
totally different. If I had 1$ for all the times I've packed a room only to move them out.
I'd be so very rich!

I wish mine ran to that direction! I really really wish it did. I would be very happy! :bigjoint:

except then I would be fighting myself to not put in too many.. but hey. It's always something right? :mrgreen:

Day 20 12/12 Flower

Hello all things are going well i did however notice the black Russian right at the back as something wrong with her i gave her a flush and noticed the EC was high very odd as the rest have been getting the same food but the run off as been fine she should be fine now that she has been flushed

I'll just need to keep a close eye on her over the next couple of days apart from that things are going well girls are starting to put on some frost one is standing out but the others are still nice glad i kept the twins and split them up they are both going strong don't kill your twins if you notice them just split them up ASAP

Sorry for the shit photo's didn't get to the girls in time to get some without the HPS warming up next update in 4 days thanks for looking :weed:

Things are really going in there! glad you got her sorted out. Stay high and happy! :bigjoint:

akhiymjames · Apr 20, 2015

Looking good bro. Glad you caught that girl before she got too bad. My Chernobyl is doing much better too as I topdressed her with some supersoil and she's looking much better since I did that last week. She's a nute whore from what I hear so I'll may sure next run she will have plenty supersoil to get her through. She was only in base and I think she ate the rest of the stuff up quick during stretch.

That Blue Dream is looking superb bro. That one starts to get very frosty very early. You will be amazed at the resin production. Keep it up bro can't wait to see those big frosty buds

Kind Sir · Apr 20, 2015

Hey dude, are your plants touching eachother and how far away is your light? Lastly, howndo you hang your fan in the corner?

My plants are short and bushy except for two, which I am doing LST on the taller non topped plants but it seems I keep my light really close compared to others unless thats just thr camera. Measured it this morning, about 11 inch away. Looks good dude, what day total are you on?

Benelli · Apr 20, 2015

Happy 420 all. DN, wow...looking fantastic, been reading this since the start.

I just copped a BD about 4 weeks ago. Been curing in jars for about 2 1/2 weeks. Tried for 1st time the other night in a clean bong. WOW. 1 hit and I was in la-la land. I topped and lst mine too much and ended up with tons of small nuggets. I guess grow and learn, right?

Keep it up!

Great smoke wish I still had my girl but lost her. Gonna have the real deal Blue Dream soon. When I top and lst I only top once for 4 main colas once you train those 4 mains the side branches come up and becomes tops. No need to top a lot unless you dealing with stretch monsters which Blue Dream is but she can be controlled with right lst. Shave the legs on the mains too so you don't harvest a lot of larf and popcorn buds.

Thanks bro shes doing well i think its the only down size to running so many stains is they are not all the same some like more food some like less i think the black Russian that's showing signs of a deficiency is from Calcium being to low or a lock out never had a Cal-mag deficiency because I have always ran tap water now that I have changed to RO now I am only running my Cal-mag at 0.2 EC might need to bump it up to 0.4 the rest of the girls are fine but that one is showing like rust like spots anyway sure she will be okay the other black Russian is on the same food and not showing any signs

Thanks for dropping in bro

Hey bro yeah they are touching each other but i have a lot of air flow in the room so she will be fine the light is around 18" from the top of the plant as i need it high to get the coverage i might of been better off running my old 2x600 watts for better coverage but at the same time i wanted to see what the 1000 watts could do

Long as you do the hand test you can get your lights nice and close but don't get them to close or you will end up burning tops and slowing growth down that and burning your buds is never a good thing total days i think i vegged for about 50 something days and now 20 days off flower so in total some where around 70 days off from seed maybe a little more if you look at the first post that should help with the dates

Thanks for dropping in bro

Hey @Benelli welcome bro nice to have you along for the ride yeah i have only heard good things about the blue dream so had to get my hands on her after watching @akhiymjames grow her out i was 100% and yeah bro we are all learning here growing is a skill that takes time as every grow i am learning new things and tweaking things it's a great hobby

make sure you lollipop your girl more next time i hate pop corn buds they shit me when i first started growing i would waste my time trimming them to get more yield but now i don't even try trim them anymore if i get them i just cut them right off and add them to the trim and make it in to hash

Awesome to have you drop in and hope you enjoy the show all the best

Dr Gruber · Apr 22, 2015

So, yesterday Im looking at the new photos you posted and I hear a knock at my office window. I turn around and there is a cop looking in my window. After i just about shit my pants, i realize it is my wife's old friend that just became a cop and he is just here to say hello.

He is actually a good guy that knew we are both MJ patients and couldn't care less. I let him in with your photos filling my computer screen but he never looked at it. He got a call and had to leave in a hurry....but i was still shaking.

Nice photos by the way........

That's awesome but also scary long as he don't know what your hobby is your all good I don't like to trust anyone with me growing my mates know I always got weed but would never tell them I grow think it's best that way there all cool cats but at the same time loss lips sink ships

So telling people is a big no no sometimes I find it hard when your growing some awesome fat buds but I just don't the only one that knows is my brother and this forum apart from that not a soul

Awesome to have you drop
In

PS your girls are looking awesome
