BCBuddy's New Perpetual Show 4000 Watts

Well...I'm back! I have relocated, obtained some new genetics and just completed my new attic veg room with 1000 watt MH with 6 inch exhaust and intake.

Im running temps of 78-80 light and 65-68 dark. I have 13 plants that are 12 inches tall with some serious health problems. I will need some help, the main stalks have gone DARK purple and they have rusty spots and wilty growth ( pics very soon ). I have some ideas for now as I somewhat know what I'm doing but I hope things don't get worse :(

Here's the kicker... I plan on transplanting the 12 OG Kush x (?) into 7 gallon pots and vegging them large enough to produce 3 pounds total off of my 4000 watt flowering room ( yet to be built ) for math challenged people that's roughly 4 ounces (1/4 Lb ) per plant, this should be an interesting grow.

I have trained them for a few weeks under a different light and room. They have been pruned unmercifully and bent down to grow massively horizontal due to limited head room.

I am using my same feeding schedule from my last grow ( GH 3part with additives ).

Pics are coming as soon as I unpack my digital camera, within a couple days, please stop by now and then, I promise this WILL GET INTERESTING :)

The stems look way darker purple than I have ever seen before and just a general lack of health going on...

I've made sure PH is correct around 6 and temps are fine. Not sure wtf is wrong with these bitches. Could be that I had to revert them since the moron was flowering these things at 4 inches tall in a greenhouse, I dunno, I'm trying to fix them. Any input would be great.

Today I took all the plants out of the room, cleaned it, pruned a bit, cleaned all the dead leaves out of the dirt and lower branches and bent all the stems down low for wider bushier growth. I also sprayed all the residue off from all the spraying I've been doing. They are cleaned up and about 6 inches shorter but way wider. Now I'm going to wait a few more days, let them fill out in the middles of the plants and then transplant them into 7 gallon pots. Veg time will be at least another 3 weeks to attain the goal of 3 lbs off of 12 plants.

UPDATE:

Here is some pics of the plants 6 days later from last pics, seem to be doing alot better and health is improving. A good flush was the trick, got the PH back up to 5.8-6.1 I'm in hp promix btw with GH 3 part + additives. The low stance is really starting to take effect. I trained all the main stems over 12 inches down to that height or shorter, taking about 6 inches off total canopy level. This has caused the now bare middles to fill in rapidly and create multiple new budsites and super wide bushes.. I'm going to transplant these babies into 7 gallon pots in a few days, so they can grow about twice their size now before 12/12 time comes. This is just the veg room my flowering room awaits...

Notice the small clone up front, that is my lil' original skunk clone, the rest are an ogkush cross, not sure of the cross but they had a real orangey dank smell when I reverted them from a couple weeks of flowering, could be some kinda chronic strain, I have no clue :D

ARRGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH It was MITES!!!! that was the problem!!! I have horrible vision and my GF finally had a closer

look and discovered a godawful infestation despite hotshots no-pest strips and weekly treatments of "BUG_B_GONE". I

have now bought " end all" by safers, ran through that bottle and now it's dr.doom time, BUGBOMBBB! (pyrethrin) plants

have been trimmed brutally and are now just gonna recover so no pics....they don't look great hahaha but the war is

fucking ON, transplant into 7 GAL pots will wait. I will update with pics in a few days. Also I have added a new intake fan,

as opposed to passive, the cool air is just flowing through nicely now. I still have lots of hope for my predicted harvest,

just a few snags, that's all.

They are now in their final coffins, large ass 7 gallon pots. I've come to realize and finally decide that this strain is just plain difficult!!!! I have never had trouble like this before and any other plants I nurture always look beautiful, strong and healthy. I got these from an old guy that didn't care about them and let them flower at 6 inches tall, buttfucked the whole time by spidermites (bastards)they had a bad case of PM also. I had to revert them once they were 2 1/2 weeks in... took forever. I was on them right away with pest treatments and all other care needed and they have never liked me to this day.

I just started feeding the shit out of them recently and it seems they are RAVENOUS, sucking the food up and getting greener and perkier the more nutrients they get. They will be getting more food now, 1 1/2 strength next feed in 2 days. They just got fed 2 days ago 1 1/4 strength. Letr's see how much these greedy bitches can handle :lol: I'll back it up when I see burn and the bottom leaves stop yellowing so much.

The bombing went well, holy shit 60 bux in bombs and spray, they got bombed again yesterday, finale~ hopefully.

I will be placing these bushes in the flowering chamber within 7-10 days. Decided on just 3000 watts ( 2 HPS, 1 MH ) 4 plants per light, maybe too much light...I dunno.

Note the small skunk clone, it smells like sour pungent SKUNK and should give me lot's of clones for the next batch.

I have 3 northern lights and 3 swiss cheese (NIRVANA) seeds planted today (popped) in those pots in the pic, all female. These will be mothers for cloning, all in due time, next batch of vegged will be skunk, NL, SC and OG X ?(crap) all from clones to be cut soon. except the post-cloned out mothers from seed. Hopefully not too many of the bad strain, we'll see. Thanks alot for checking in! :bow:

Update:

So today I have come a long way with the flowering room, just have to run my ducting, hang carbon filter, set up fans, lay down floor and hang lights. All the wiring, painting and venting holes are complete. I am also cutting all my clones for my next crop tonight. I got 17 original skunk clones and I will hack 28 more off of the other plants (strain not exactly sure)
My northern lights and swiss cheese are now seedlings, waiting until they are clonable for one last indoor crop before summer. Outdoors should be good this year with a good selection of my best strains. By sunday all vegged plants will be placed in the new flowering room. Here of some pics of my work this evening...











comments are welcome btw

Finished my 3000 watt flowering room (almost) Took me 7 hours of solid work between two days. Here's what I'm running;

- Painted bright white

- 8 inch exhaust off of a huge carbon filter

- 8 inch vortex fan

- 8 inch intake with inline fan assist (pumps good)

- 2 x 1000 watt HPS. 1 x 1000 watt MH

- Growzone TP2 fan speed controller

Highlights

- neat and clean with lot's of hangers

- exhaust goes to roof cap vent

- intake sucks from roof cap vent

- timer board and ballasts are tucked into the crawlspace behind room for convenience and space

Still To Do

- staple floor down tight

- seal bottom of door better

- add two oscillating fans

- add new digital thermo/hygro

After tomorrow all will be done and it will be flowering time :bigjoint:

My room is 14x12. Total grow space is 12x12.
Naw im not worried about power at all. my meter doesnt spin when hydro does meter checks. Im sick of not getting paid. i want to make thousands not hundreds.
Temps are around 28c with lights on and 60% rh
I use all the space i got.

TONIGHT I BEGIN FLOWERING!!

tick tock tick tock... just stapled the floor down and am about to set the timer board in the attic space. All 24-26 inch (wide ass) beauties are going into 12/12 in 45 minutes. Pure stoked :D

I will have pics of the new room full of plants very soon. Thanks for tuning in to your BCbuddy's grow thread, :peace:

FLOWERING DAY 1:

I bent down the branches a bit to reduce height for now, I'm afraid I will be playing a game of height reduction most of this flowering period...sokay cause I'm only vegging to 16-18 inches from now on, this grow's gonna be fun. Here's my new flowering room all set with plants.
