yeah its shit normally saves me a few hundred dollars but this time its going to cost me what i save any more will have more info once they reply

Depends on the weather. If we get El Nino rain this fall I may do them indoor.

Rebar is a stray from my compost pile of reject seeds. Apparently seeds are more viable than they look! Out of hundreds of seedlings that popped up I only kept two - Rebar and BigK. I crossed them both with Triangle and have a bunch of seeds but the Rebar is so special that I kept clones.

Veg Blue Dream

Hello all thinking i might start flower tomorrow still not 100% but maybe 98% just did a flush and flooded my tent again so had to take everything out and dry the floor yes there is a water mat at the bottom but i don't wet stale water risk of mold and all that good stuff



And this is the purple train-wreak seedlings starting to do something started a light feed so that seems to have woken them up and the garlic lemon OG is still doing nothing so i just gave her a little feed to wake her up well thanks for looking

Nice journal and nice plants! Im thinking about growing out some blue dream next run and I also use canna coco and the same nutes so this is really helpful to me man thanks for keeping such a well recorded journal can't wait to see it in flower!

Welcome and thanks yeah i try and keep the journal up to date as much as i can great to hear your going to grow blue dream next run it's a great stain you will be happy and with canna you can't go wrong just remember it's very salty so i recommend flushing every couple of weeks or making sure you get a good run off to make sure you don't have a salt build up and lock out if you notice your PH or EC swinging up or down just flush till the levels are the same as what your putting in i am sure you already know but i like to just give people the heads up when using Canna as it's salty looking forward to watch your grow feel free to drop in anytime you like

Not getting alerts for some reason. Looking good though. If you got amazon prime they have some really good deals on there for nuets. I got 1L bottle of roots Excelerator for 175 plus free 2day shipping is like 250 at the shop. You can get prime for free for a month and order a bunch of shit the cancel it if you don't shop online alot if you do is worth it though

Looking fire dirtynerd I will be watching closely,I really enjoy your grows and have learned a lot thanks.

Have been wanting to pull the trigger on some Humboldt seeds,but can't decide between blue dream and purple train wreck .any thoughts on that.Right now we're running Sour P from Resin Seeds,and it is truly a special plant.can't believe I haven't heard much about it over the years,but dam is it impressive.

Go back to like page 10-15 and you can see the blue beam it looks fire for sure it made my mind for it, I'll deff be running it in the future some time.

Cant say enough about the Blue Dream from HSO loved it. Wished I still had clones of her but great form of it in seed no problems from it at all. As good as the Blue Dream is I would expect some others to be good too but if anyone is looking at HSO gear the Blue Dream is where its all

Thanks Dave means a lot just had a look at the Sour P from Resin Seeds it looks very nice is the flower time long on there site they state 10-11 weeks... ? did you get a fast flowering or dose it that that long to finish off when it comes to the HSO i love the blue dream its a great strain and i am just starting a purple train wreak so if you can wait you will be able to see both blue and purple going head to head in the next run

What I have seen of the purple train wreck shes fire that's for sure everyone i have been watching that has grown out HSO as always had good things to say whatever you end up picking please feel free to come on post a link i am sure we will all enjoy watching

Make sure you keep the Sour P once you got a good stain hold on to her as long as you can i was growing out bubblegum for a year+ and i love her gave her to my brother and that's all he dose now because of her fast flowering time and A grade smoke and by far in my top 3 smokes of all time i can always get cuttings of her when i need to grow her again but for now it's all about HSO Gear

Hey all forgot to post my current feeding schedule I flushed yesterday i was only flushing once every 2 weeks as i don't think it needed once a week when there was not much of a root system but now that the girls are in full veg and moving in to flower soon ill be flushing once a week again

Current feeding schedule - 80 Liter res - RO Water

1. Silica 160ml
2. Cal-mag 80ml
3. Canna A 150ml
4. Canna B 160ml
5. Canna Rhizotonic
6. Floralicious 20ml

As you might notices there is more part B even though we are still in veg this is because ill be changing her over to flower in a few days so lowering the nitrogen levels a little and raising the phosphorus you don't need to do this but over time i have found it helps but when i first started i just did the 50/50 and it still gave me good results


Also my PH is now 6.0 and i will slowly raise that up to 6.2 mid flower and keeping it there till the end its all about tweaking my system and trying to get this best out of my girls win or fail ill keep trying anyway below is a quick pic of the girls and the current reading on the BlueLab Guardian you will notice a dead pixel on the monitor that might be why the guy sold it cheap but apart from that it's working great thanks for looking

Also you might notice another plant in there that's a chilli plant trying growing one indoors she was started from seed

Looking good. When are you going to flip them bitches to 12/12?

Yo @DirtyNerd how far do you keep your 600 mh from the canopy. Is my first time using one and i have been trying to keep it at like 14 inches

Not to sure probably at least 4 weeks, long enough to fill the screens. By then it should be cool enough for the 1000s

Do you rocking them under the 2x1000 watts again i really want to give that ago i am only running two 600s at the moment but might change it the temps let me that 50+ zips sounds nice
