Fletch gettin dirty 2.0 style

Well last time I decided to do an old fashion dirt grow I screwed them up by not sexing early and got male clones as a dummy move on my parts.So I went back to old reliebl and took some clones from 1 of my confirmed mommies I use for aero clones.Heres a few different shots of them as fresh clones then under some T8 florescent to get established and then at day 21 2 days under 1000 watt mh in the bigger 3 gallon pots.I might add to this as time goes maybe this is it.You never know.

pics?????!?!!

It didnt post for some reason so I just readded them

looking good!

Thanks.I now have to decide where these will end up at lol I will make my decision in a day or so and move them into thier new home and veg them another 2 weeks under the 1000 watter and start co2 bathing them.Iam thinking probable will go nuts with them and see about 2 1000 watt loghts on these I think Im gonna do 1 mh and 1 hps instead of 2 1000 watt hps this time.This is kind of an expiremental grow for me since I have never grown this strain in soil just flood and aero so will see.I wanna veg them to about 18 inches then go 12/12 they are about 14 inches now and they will be getting tomato cages which should have beeon on already for support.Gonna use an extremely low dose of guano tea this time I tried 1/2 dose last time I used the high phos and it killed the plants so I will use 1/8 dose in tea bag just soaked in the bucket,some molasses,sugar daddy and humboldt county gravity.We will see what we get in a month or 2.

very nice pics fletch. your garden/crop looks great! how many weeks into veg till you think you need to switch to the 1000w MH to finish the veg? Also ive heard a few answers flying around but do you think you can get the same yeild from clones as you can from seed? either way with those 10+ plants you got there surely you'll get atleast a pound or so of harvested, dont you think?

The last picture shows them under the 1000 watt mh which was day 2 under that from that picture they will get 2 weeks under that light alone then Ill add the 1000 watt hps also.Theres 17 there and some scrub backup moms off ot the side.Im hoping to pull 2-3 lbs if all goes well with fatter plants and the light boost with the co2.I think you get more from clones then from seed.It really depends on the care given since the clone is the exact genetics of the mom except being you can pick and choose.If you look alot of these have 2-4 main tops due to me picking clones with splits and a little creative early cutting.

is this still that bg strain?

i blv they will go crazy with co2. you liking that organic? or you just using the teas as supplemental?

i still need ya help brainstorming and shit bro

Yeah this is the bubblegum original used mother starin that was used to make bubblegum.Im not doing organics really just gonna use a little phos guano tea for the flower end.Im gonna use some more fox farm nutes later in flower but the soil is Miracle grow moisture control so I wont have to feed for quite awhile especilally now that the little 1 gallon pots have been put into the new soil filled 3 gallon pots.They have ben in the new pots about 3 days now under the new 1000 watt mh lighting and are now at just about the height I want them so they will get about 4 more days then the co2 and the hps heavy doses will come.Hers a few newer shots of them now doing very well since the transplant.My BB and sweet purple clones that will be going into a 3x3 flood tray with 4"x4" rockwool cubes in 6 inch square pot have just started popping roots so in next day or two those will go into the 4x4 cubes.These will be grown In a semi custom made grow tent and I will probably have to share that in a journel too.Gonna be 16 in there with 600 watt light and co2 injections....You might ask why the light is so high well I have a therory Im working with also.I have it high since this is the first week of such high output lights so I wanna break them in easy.This also helps me get just a little stretch out of the plants so they arent so dense which allows more bud site to "reach" out and this makes spaces for increased air flow around the plants making them nice and healthy.

got damn! they've grown fast as fuck!!!

i was thinking in my head, they couldnt have grown that serious nor that fast under some floros...

1000watter mh aye? i bet that bitch heats up huh?


they looking good man.... you gon cross that sweet purple with that bg?

Actually it doesnt give any heat off.I have an open old ass reflector on it and I can put the back of my hand about 3 inches from the bulb and barely gets hot.They love a fresh transplant and a good light increase so they doing well

Ok been awhile so here are a few pics now the plants are about 37 days old in these pictures.They got the 1000 watt mh boost for about 12 days and during that time I took 60 some odd clones for my aerosetups and some new moms to be as its time to retire the mom I have been using the last year or so.These are now 2 days under a 1000watt hotilux hps light but Im thinking time to get the new bulbs and gonna grab the new hort eye with blue spectrum.Its hard to see but Im including a picture of the plants I did a topping on to show how it can make basically two plants from one as it was done early and the divie is right at the soil level so I now have 6 main colas on that plant and dozen or so lower points.These are still in regular miracle grow moisture control soil getting ph 6.8 waterings and have just started to add sugar daddy to the feedings.Next week they will get and ultra low tea mix of batguano to the mix.Im mean low as you dont need it but I wanna give a small boost to the budding sites so will use 1/8 dose.I raised the co2 lines as I have decided to hold off the tank injections and was gonna use the co2 generator in here but switched up and decided since I was haveing cold temps I took my propane tank and just slapped a Mr heater tank heater head on it and will burn the propane this way as to get heat in the room and the co2 all in 1 shot.Im trying to maintain 76 lights on and 68 lights off temps so with outside temps staying around negative 35 below zero F its tricky. They seem to be happy so far in soil which is the first I have grown this strain in soil..I have some sweet purple in a flood table and tent and will post later in a thread and I will show another aero grow in my larger setup sometime soon which will be this strain here..I am starting new blueberry seed as the clones I have from the 1 mother BB I have is just a reatrd pheno as its a 3 leaf only plant that will not bush its very lanky and far spaced nodes so will look for better stock to work that or I might drop a bean or 2 of kc33 x master kush which I have never grown since buying the seeds few years ago....anyways pictures now..

All looking good fletch.
I always used my t8s as well,totally underated tubes,i grew with them for years previously and believe it or not added a 500 watt halogen lamp for some red light during flowering.
Best of luck with it

i have a friend who uses a 500 watt halogen lamp and his babies grow....they're in flowering now....

Yeah man you just have to be careful with the heat they give off and add some blue light for the best results

looking good fletch...can't wait to see them in the flowering stage...and i'm sure you can't either.

can you really use halogen lights for flowering? i have 1 plant flowering under 4 CFLs now, and i know i have a halogen light in the garage. but i've heard before that halogen lights won't help at all with growing.

yea i heard the same thing about halogens and how useless they would be....

i blv it until i saw my friends. i tried to tell him and he tried to tell me. i guess he was right.

loudblunts....so you can use halogens for flowering? cause if so i know what i'll be doing when my light turns back on

Yeah they are just starting the flower on these.They have been covered with hairs for about 3 weeks so should fill in quickly.they got co2 right now and I just thought about doing a rotating light schedule with thes to see what happenes.Im gonna run the 1000 watt hps for 9 hours a day and then the 1000 watt mh for 3 hours in the day.Think I will go 4 1/2 hours hps then 3 hours mh then back to 4 1/2 hps then lights out.Wanna see if this blue mid burst has any effects.

I have heard a lot of good reports that the mh bulbs give a much more stronger trippy high but slightly smaller buds.
Spreading it out like your doing should give a good mix of both.
Best of luck with it.
Let us know if you think it made the buds a bit stronger.
I always use a mix of red and blue all the way through and i am always wasted
Never used a mh for blue though only my t8s so let us know
