The Coming Of Cheesus

Cheesus, is the award winning strain from The Big Buddha and if anybody knows his cheese its the Big Buddha. God Bud winner of the 2004 Indica cup and Cheese winner of the 2006 Indica cup. Ordered from the the attitudes pick n mix should arrive tomorrow.

Down to business, I will germinate in a rapid rooter plug with a heated humidity dome. Veg and Flower in a single Water farm unit with a six inch air stone in the bottom. Canna Aqua vega nutes for veg and Advanced Nutes sensi bloom A and B for flower as well as there Connoisseur blend. Lights will be a two foot eight bulb T5 for veg same for flower but there will be an additional three CFL bulbs. Top and low stress train.

Anyone who has grown this strain or its parents I would greatly appreciate any advice, tips or tricks. Otherwise feel free to swing by and comment or tell me if I'm screwing up.

I wish the attitude had an option to ship by fedex or something cuz now i have to wait til Monday. Damn government employees

Anybody know if Canna nutrients have an expiration date? There is a date stamp on the back of the bottle but it does not indicate as an expiration date. perhaps just has a 'best by date'? I see nothing on there website or anywhere else on the web. they are about two years old. they've been kept in a cool dark place. still have more than half of the bottles left (unlike most growers im a less is more kinda guy. btw they are canna aqua vega and canna aqua flores I also have rhizotonic but it definitely appears to have broken down.

right on man at it again i see im interested in the strain should be yummy.

I see the the good Dr is along for the ride. Always good to have you bro. Just got them in today. Don't know if its good or bad but after three hours I poked it and it sank to the bottom of the shot glass so now its in the paper towels. should sprout a nice tap root by tomorrow.

Yup, seems like a good selection. two cannabis cup winners. just looking for that sleeper strain with huge potential. and ive never had a cheese strain before so why not. I also got a dinafem blue widow for free as well. whata think?

man i have seen that blue widow and think it is a great strain (great yield), a dude in the DWC grow club is growing it (his name is theFLAKE) and it produces colas the size of 2 3litre coke bottles stacked (height wise) so lucky you bro to good strains, cant loose with a cheese strain, that will prably be my next pick for sure.

ive got a sunblaze t5 28 veging a dinafem cheese myself. shes beside two DP blueberries and is obviously a wayy stronger plant. i actually started them under a 90w UFO from hidhut.com but changed it out(for some reason; they were doing fine) bad reviews on the LED turned me away.

Glad for the reassurance on the cheese bro. any smell to her yet? Also glad to know she responds well under T5's. Been wanting to get into led but im just not sold on it yet. I heard ufo brand was ok though? what didnt you like about it?

Dang now as always cant wait to start her up. I've always heard widows are finicky little girls whats your opinion chief? everything i grow seems to be finicky though. ive decided its probably either cannas nutes or i need to invest in a good ppm meter or both. the ppm meter for sure.

I was thinking about saving the blue widow for my sea of green grow and now that i know shes a yielder then I think ill grow her out hope for a good pheno and go from there.

7/20/11 Update: Not much to report in on. So far she is a beast. in 18 hours she sprouted an inch long tap root and now she is in a rapid rooter plug tucked in a humidity dome under 4 of the 8 t5's. lights come on at five a.m and off at eleven p.m two hours of light and shes already starting to push the little scrap of plug i put across the top of the whole to protect the root. B.E.A.S.T i have very high hopes for this one. glad I decided to go with the single waterfarm unit.

Also any thoughts on if I should run a mixed spectrum during veg only? was only going to run the t5's but now once shes out of the dome im gonna run 8 t5's and up my cfl count to five. let me know what you guys think.

7/21/11 Update: Day two in the dome under the lights and shes already an inch and a half high. Figure another six or seven days and into the Hydroton it is.

On a side note instead of using straight tap water like I always have this time I bought distilled water but on the label it says carbon filtered and ozonated. Does anybody know if this will adversely affect the plant? I don't think so but I always check.

when i first started growing hydro i used nothing but distilled and the plants where always healthy and happy as could be so you should be fine.

ok good to go then. just trying to eliminate any outside factors affecting the plants. If I still have the same problems as before then its the nutes I'm using.

Back at it Niko. Glad to have ya back.
You do know that Conisseur and the Sensi Grow/Bloom is a different line from AN.
Not sure they are meant to go together. Not sure about that one.
You gonna post up some pics?

Ill double check that one. the way it read it sounded like connoisseur was just a bloom enhancer but I'll check. if it is a flowering nutrient to be used all by itself I may just try that

Might wanna double check then. The Connoisseur is a nutrient in itself. It is not meant as an additive.
You could use it with Bud Candy or other additives like that. Some use only the Connoisseur alone with nothing else.
For the price of a bottle of it. It better work some miracles. I have seen some comparisons and I wasn't impressed.
You should google it and read some reviews on the product or you can go to AdvancedNutirents.com and get info on it.
But me personally I like to read reviews from actual users. Cuz the company is always gonna make it sound great!!

Everyone has told me that the connoisseur line is all hype so last night i ordered the sensi bloom A and B to use as my flower nutes. Ordered Voodoo Juice as well for the roots. next week I'm going to order Bud blood, big bud, overdrive and bud candy. That's going to be the lineup for this grow. And yeah you were right bro.

Just gotta find a way to accurately measure this stuff out. that was one problem with the Canna Nutrients. probably gonna buy a graduated cylinder. most accurate thing I can think of.
