Hey long time since I posted something worth a look so here goes. Went and started to germ three Purple Wreck's, three White Rhino's and one Wonder Woman fem seed and one fem LA Confidential. After only three full days they already broke ground and are on there way. I am just using a small 2'ft shop light with grow bulbs in it to start them and will move them to my bigger bloom box in a week or two. Finally using decent strains and will from now on. In my bloom box I have a few cfl's and one 6'' AC sunsystem hood with a switchable ballast with 400w Hortilux eye bulbs both MH and HPS. Add a few inline duct fans and a trio of Fox Farm nutes and grow mediums and I am set. Really digging the Light Warrior seed starting mix and I am trying a root booster from Ferti-lome. I love this hobby! Oh and after this I may run either Hashberry or Satori from Mandela or Blue Venom and ak48 not sure just yet tho will see how this round goes. I was a bit cheap and didn't get all femmed seeds so never know! Anyone grow Reserve Privada's Purple Wreck before?

Hey once a person in the boonies breaks down and buys good genetics from whatever source available its usually a good time!:thumbsup:

oh and the damn LA Confidential hasn't even germ yet so thats a loss, might throw a reg Hashberry or Satori seed in its place. Mandela seems to make nice strains.

Yo Frosted glad to see you started another log bro.:jointsmile:
Will be following along to see if I can pick up anything useful to try or just new. Did you make your box taller, and are you still gonna run the extra cfl wattage in the area.? Or have you went a lil bigger from last time if my memory serves me right you got a couple 250w back during the last log. How do i subscribe to threads this been pissin me off, I forget about good logs.

I'm going to enjoy watching this one.

Something I noticed about the White Rhino; if you seed em the buds smell A LOT fruitier than otherwise. Of course they aren't as potent...

Anyone else notice that about any other strains (the fruity odor that is).

Thanks for tuning in people, I can always use some help with another pair of eyes!

KillaBG. I did score two 250w MH setups at an auction for $5.50 for both, but I gifted them to another guy that is joining the crusade. That way I can trade clones and all that good stuff without having to knock down some walls in my house to make room lol. I received some freebies from my last order of seeds and the site mentioned they had hoped their customers would give them out to others with like minds,,,so I did that. As for my bloom box your memory is good cause I had a 4' tall box and after you add the ac hood and pots there wasn't much actual space. I made it just a bit over 6' tall now, and that was the inside dimensions. I am reworking the duct and etc today and hanging up some 2mil Mylar.Not sure about the CFLs in the bloom box, probably will have two, one on each side of hps or my buy the kind that clip on the Sunsystem hood. I also noticed my new seedlings were a bit spindly so I bought a sunblaze22 2'ft T5 HO and transplanted them and buried them a bit deeper and gave em some root booster/stress reducer.

Leadmagnet, I will try to record the difference if I choose to seed the W Rhino which I may, so thats a neat observation!

Headshake! Damn long time away from these boards and wouldn't I know it your still here doing your thang! Glad to have ya around..

Oh and about the subscribe thing I believe you have to subscribe then set it up for email notifications and then your set. Also thru the User Cp it should list updated threads you are subscribed to. Take a peek at my three leaf Purple Wreck, I hope this mutant is a girl. And lastly I did say a prayer for my LA Confidential seed and then threw a Hashberry in its place!

Just a small update. T5 was not really doing it for these seedlings they asked for more light, and I gave in. Placed a MH Bulb in Bloom box and Turned it on. The seedlings seemed behind to me for being about two weeks old. I was having some temp issues in this box and had to take off the carbon filter till I get a better fan for heat extraction. Thinking about going with a Classic or premium edition Eco Plus inline 6'' fan rated at either 340cfm-classic or 440cfm for the premium. The current inline duct booster fans are just not enough.
Also, I think the Fox Farm Ocean Soil was a bit much for the little seedlings and the leaves show some issues. I had mixed it one part Pro-mix/Light Warrior/Ocean Forrest ratio going on so it might have been a bit much.. Things will even out..Gotta love soil!:gunfighter2: Happy Halloween!

Well looks like your waiting for take off, So while we all wait can we gets some shots of ya box.? With those inline duct fans can we run em like parallel to help boost more air movement.? Or will this cause issues an actually work at a disadvantage to ya.? Not to sure how your exhaust is set up, But if its like inline pulling air out box threw hood. scrubber-fan-ac hood-open end sucking air out box.? Maybe throw another inline on the hood to push, and have one pulling air.? How is your exhaust system set up if you don't mind giving a lil more detail.?:jointsmile:

Yup, been a bit busy tho and I will make a more laid out once over with some pics and all. For the most part its a box made out of 1''x3'' wood and some basic .75''plywood. Measurements are 48''W30''D72''H. One 6'' inline duct booster fan 160 max cfm. One 4'' inline duct booster fan 80cfm max,for incoming fresh air and to try for a more passive air exhaustion in general. Using a Sun system 2 6'' Ac hood with Hortilux MH for Veg and HPS bulb for flower. Box is mostly Mylar with some white painted spots.. I will follow up with some pics in a bit. :pimp:

Hey about the booster inline duct fans, running them on the same duct in a row or even spaced out I would imagine would suck. If they were identical they would improve things maybe a bit but they would still have the same cfm so it just makes more sense for me to buy a nice inline fan that will handle pushing or pulling thru my Carbon Filter I made from Bodom's thread on here. I will most likely buy a Eco plus brand fanEcoPlus 6" Inline Blower 440 cfm - Interior Gardens (http://www.thegrowlight.com/ecoplus-6-inline-blower-440-cfm.html) I am guessing that will work well enough for this size box. In the future I see a better filter system based on my needs and that fan seemed perfect. After any work at all it only pays to do it right the first time, which I didn't out of not knowing what to buy when my mind changes as much as my tv changes channel.

Here are some current shots of the box and the hopeful girls. Only one is a femmed seed (Wonder Woman) and the rest of the gang. I still think they are a bit behind but will take off shortly. They are at day 13 with one of the Hashberry plants being started a few days ago.

Installed the fan yesterday and monitored it for a few hours before putting the lil ones back in the box. Finally I am able to keep the light really close and have all the doors closed on the box and still keep decent temps. I am glad so far that I bought the more expensive version of the brand I went with.

440CFM Is probably more then I needed but once I add on the filter and possible extra cfl's to the box it might be just enough. Searching thru some adds for lights online I keep looking at those UFO Led lights and wishing I got one for the one side of my box where the light is not as strong.

Oh and if anyone has used big fans like I bought and thinks they run quieter hung on bungee or spring lines let me know. Currently it is bolted to the side of the box and tho it doesn't sound all that loud to me it may to guests in the house. I makes the box hum a bit and I am trying to tighten up anything that may vibrate like hinges etc. :yippee:

Plants are really enjoying that Mh. You will have bushes in no time, And I think tho Frosted a bungee cord might make it run quieter if noise is a issue where you are. I myself have not test this tho but it seemed like the way to go for me.:thumbsup:

Just feed em for the first time. 1/4 Strength of Grow big and some Cal-mag with distilled water. They are starting to kick up the growth and they have short internode spacing. I really hope the mutant Purple Wreck three leafer (can't member the term) is a female (as with all of them). Temps are really nice to manage with those speed switches.

Nice! This looks like a good mix. :thumbsup: I like the PW oddity, that's cool. Looking forward to seeing the Wonder Woman, the Hashberry sounds interesting, hard to go wrong with *any* Mandela stuff. :)

You can cut down on some of the noise by using the bungee cords. It's good that you overbuilt the box w/ the .75", I imagine it's already pretty quiet. Some that I've seen made with *thin* plywood, resonated horribly, unless the fan was suspended.

I'm watchin'. :smokin: :thumbsup:

11-08-2009, 09:03 PM
Hey ECM Thanks for the info. I will most likely keep the fan as is this round. The air flow is nice, and it doesn't seem that noisy.Like you mentioned the plywood I went with was, to be honest on sale and the added noise protection was by accident. The plants should be a good test of my new setup. I am going to under feed them tho as I have read some of the strains were better off on the lighter side. Well see tho, things move along pretty fast.:stoned:

on the noisy fan issue--

have you ever ran a fan controller on the fan....and play with the different settings....

Personally, I have a vortex 483 and if i run it on full blast....my tent is around 82F....but if i lower the fan speed....it lowers it to 74F and is much more quiet....i dont know why its a lower temp, maybe it pulls the cold air from the room slower over the light...i have no clue.....but i just started on the lowest setting and monitored the temps....then adjusted to the next setting on the next day and monitored till i found my best speed configuration....my fan is much more quieter on the lower setting than on full blast! good luck!

frostedwonder
11-09-2009, 09:40 PM
Hey Killa1-5 if you glance two post of mine up you will see I mention that I was loving that speed switch I bought. I also mentioned it earlier, I am not sure why you cannot devote all your time to my thread with having all those plants you take care of its like kids if you already have three its the same as having 10 right? So add my plants in my thread on your already busy plate would ya...if I said please...?lol jk I am glad you can even find time to share bud pics much less comment/teach others like myself.

They should always try to upsell a person buying a high powered fan, no matter if its online or in a store it should be offered. I do not even worry about my temps being to high. Now its too cold in the lights off period (4hrs) then I would like but I will run my space heater on a thermo soon enough. Thanks for checking in!: thumbsup: Oh and any tips on the Purple Wreck as far as keeping it a mum or cloning.. if any variance then you would for another strain?

11-09-2009, 09:51 PM
I love snapping photos.. Now I just wish my camera was good... All plants are around 20-21 days with the exception of the Hashberry it is a few days younger but catching up. I also didn't even think of its age when I gave my first low dose of nutes yesterday so it was feed with the rest, when I normally would have waited for more nodes before starting that. Hashberry is not nute friendly from what the breeders page states so my bad...:jointsmile:

I am going to shoot for a low of 69-70F in the light off period..Cheers peeps
also this site seems like it has change to me. More mean people that talk always about the price of green or what they hate about a person's style of grow on here...anyone else notice this or was I just grumpy lately and too hypersensitive?:postexcuseme:

Sh*t i didnt even notice it there at the end of the sentence....the whole 4 words.....do you know how high i stay? joking bro... and no 3 plants is not like taking care of 10 at least in my eyes...

On the purple wreck....i run her between 56-63 days....she like her nutes right around 1000 ppm....i got her on a good feeding schedule now...and since you use FF....id just run my base formula which is:

1 tsp of Grow Big
1/2 tsp of Tiger Bloom
1 Tbsn. of Big Bloom

+ Boosters

They never show signs of deficencies and seem to like it.

Also, Ive only ran a few purple wreck plants and what ive seen the pheno defiently vary... The mother i kept is not a yielder by any means, she really isnt that potent either, and ive seen better looking PW phenos(more purple, bigger buds).....But she is quite unique, She smells just like diesal, and has so many trics i can call her snow white if i wanted to....its the kinda high i can work on....more uplifting no matter how the % of amber trics are present....I ran mine to about 70 days and 60% amber trics and it really didnt improve the high...

To get rid of some of the vibration through the house put some little rubber coaster things or some sort of rubber to get the box off the ground, that way, if there is any vibration making any noise, it won't go through the floor.

frostedwonder
11-11-2009, 09:40 PM
Hey thanks for dropping in ForgetClassC, I am going to buy a big rubber mat that is used to prevent fatigue while standing, that should help. The box is on casters at the moment. Overall I am usually overly concerned by just about all things gardening related. I would say my little box makes about as much noise as the computer I am using does so not that much of a issue. I was thinking about using insulated ducting vs the basic aluminum cheapo stuff that currently is in place...Does anyone here use that to help fan noise?

Later I will post a pic or two of my nute burned lil one. When the breeder recommends no nutes or light ones they mean it. Hashberry has a marbled discoloring and a few others show a little as well... Not sure if it is from that mixed with 67f temp during lights off period (4hrs) there is a bit of a temp swing that cannot be good for them, but the space heater near the box should take care of that..

Just was hoping for more girls to show me their stuff before I even bother to transplant but that cannot wait to be done. I have one PW that is for sure and my Wonder Woman was femmed and shows and it did show first. The rest seem to just about confirm themselves. I should have just went with Femmed seeds for the most part...next time

frostedwonder
11-27-2009, 10:21 PM
So I am thinking about either using a sunblaze HO T5 2ft 2 bulb setup that I already have, on the side where there is more ducting then hood. If looking at my box from the front it would be the left side in my photos. I am going to either just use jack chain and keep it at canopy level on that side of box or position it on the side on the far back wall and then use some cfl lighting instead on the left side of box.

I am going to try and just use some of the odds and ends I have laying around which should be just fine. the small two bulb sunblaze only gives me another 4k lumens at optimum so I may just use it as side lights, not sure. I have a bunch of various mogul bases and cfl's like 85watt ones and smaller 23watters and inbetween.

I wish all of my plants were showing their sex enough to cull or keep cause I want to get these things really big before flower and still I have to take a few clones and then let the chicks heal a bit and maybe top some not sure. I will then have to wait a little after that and then before flowering I have to still transplant eventually all into 4.7gallon square pots.

Also I am very stuck on getting some Chocolope seeds for next year to use and cant get the flavor of that old school chocolate thai off my mind!

Just some new shots. I started with three Purple Wrecks and got two females one of which is a three leafer. Also tried one La Confidential which didn't even germ (ugh) and three White Rhino's which seem to be male so far its over 40 days and they haven't shown crap. One I think is a female if any of them. Also started a Hashberry a few days after all the rest and it has yet to show anything specific. I transplanted the two PW and the One Wonder Woman that was a (fem seed) into 4.7 Gallon square pots. I am giving the rest about three days before I either chop them or switch rooms to harvest some pollen, not sure but either I will keep some of Purple Wreck's pollen or the White Rhino.

Also first shot is on the space I am thinking about putting in some CFL's and running a 2ft sun blaze 2 bulb ho t5 on the back wall to help with under growth etc. any thoughts? I have one 85 watt warm cfl and a bunch from 23w on up. I might after this or during this cycle buy a 150w hps to even the light out not sure.

anything not in a big pot in my pics are male until proven guilty or three days and counting....

Yo Frosted, Hows it going over there Bro.? Ya plants looking great:thumbsup: and really healthy.

I would say to get that extra light in there asap, as long as you can manage the temps. Which I think you will find a way to keep it optimal, I myself am having some issues with my cab., Its 2'.3X4'X5'.9 and have the same issue.

Part my box is not getting light, and I dont know if I should go buy a 70W security light from HD or not.$45?
Or I could try to wire some 4ft. Floros like 4200 kelvin or sumthin with 3150 lumen a bulb or close.? What do you think I should do.?

All I have is a 400W Mh, And I don't see spending $100 on a conversion bulb in my future as I am broke with bout $50.

Will wait to see what you suggest, And see what you decide to roll with.:thumbsup::jointsmile:

KBG, I am going to most likely only have three plants in my box at max six this round being that most of my white rhino looks male. They seem slow to mature being it is 43 or so days of veg.. I will throw some cfl's in tonight or this weekend to even out the light a bit. I can't say I would recommend buying the HD Security light unless your cool with electricity. They sell 150w and smaller from most hydro places for just 100 bucks or around there. I would have to see some pics of the box to visualize anything useful to say. Can't go wrong with cfl to even some things out.:thumbsup:

Hey Shov, I am liking that idea, I orig bought the t5 for my clone/mother area and then bought the two bulb when I went in thinking I was buying the four bulb version,,,don't shop too medicated.

Either would be fine for a clone area or just a cheap shoplight would have done the trick but the selling point for me was that I can interconnect those t5 setups and then I can run two shelves etc.. Had I bought the four bulb version I would have already hooked it up in the bloom box to help even the light levels out but two bulbs just seems week (4200 lumens) that 8k from the four bulb would be better. I don't have a box of money but with all the junk laying around here I should do fine. I just broke down and killed all my male suspects (4 Wht Rhino, 1 Hashberry, 1 Purple Wreck) add that to the LA confidential that didn't pop I am left with One Femmed Wonder Woman, Two Purple Wrecks (one Mutant three leafer).

I was going to grow out one male of the Wht Rhino and maybe even the Purple Wreck and then pollinate some lower branches of the Wonder Woman, but then I figured I am not really into breeding these beotches. Maybe a summer project I will sometime.

KBG, Don't worry about posting half assed stuff on here, you could do everything perfect and be the nicest person in the world and some ahole on here will diss you or make you rethink this site and the people on it. I may stick to just posting on my own threads where at least I am happy!

Personally if your looking for pain med and sleeping meds....id stay away from the PW...

The PW i have has a real dominate sativa high....real uppy!

Nirvana's White Widow and White Rhino are some serious pain meds!

Also, probably the best pain medicinal strain ive seen is Motarebel's Herijuana! Trust me....take a few bong tokes and you wont be able to feel your legs!

good luck on the strain hunt!

Killa,

The guy who sent me the beans grew PWR out this summer and it was Indy dom, pretty close to knock out meds. He only ran two plants so we will see what other phenotypes pop up.

I did take some PWR male pollen and dusted an Afghani x LowRyder f2 so I have something to play around with. The AffieLR is not full Auto so there should be some good specimens from it. So many beans so little space:jointsmile:

Anyone use heat mats for their clones? Root riot cube with humidity dome and a heating mat is what I am using.

Yo Frosted, Hows everything going over that way Bro.?

Your plants looking great, I have the same idea as you just to dam late tho lol. My ladies are tall as fuck, And I should have lst & trained them more then what I did. Well you live & you learn, So I will be doing major lst on my clones/ New ladies for my second round.!:jointsmile:

What is the height of your tallest plants.? What is the width of the bushiest you have.?....If it ain't to much to ask ya to check.

I know one thing for sure tho, I am gonna get me a 600W after this run.

A few days into flower. Going to hope for very little stretch on the Purple Wreck. I think I will have enough height in the flower box but its going to be close with the bigger PW. Clones are going to be fun tho next round I will scrog for sure. Wonder Woman is nice and bushy and the mutant PW is growing at a rate that works well for my setup, it is more of a Indica Pheno for sure that and its a three leafer. The camera I am using bites, the flash ain't helping. I remembering reading about the Purple Wreck having crinkled leaf formations and that pretty much held true. Both the mutant and the reg PW are showing that and I can see why this plant looks almost ragged compared to other varieties.

I have been way too busy lately and my clones have taken a beating. I wasn't paying enough attention and they are showing it. It has been under ten days since taking the clones, and most are rooted pretty good by now but a few were wilting. I hadn't dipped or hand watered the Root Riot cube in a few days and they were drying out The misting wasn't enough for some too much for others. Its on track now but it was a reminder that I need to invest more time on things or they die. Once I run out of my Root Riot cubes I will make a bubble cloner in one of the stickies on here.

Hey FW,

You mentioned increasing humidity in dome.. I've always been told the more you have the better.. Root development is based off of humidity hence why minimal lighting is needed (Plants use lights to grow and develop leaf structure)..Me personally i would run as much humidity as possible.. Last time i ran at almost 100% !! Looking great though keep up the good WORK :thumbsup: !

frostedwonder
12-29-2009, 03:39 PM
No i didn't mention adding humidity in the humidity dome. I said I wanted to increase humidity in the bloom box (I think I did). I will lower it a few weeks from now but low 20% in there now is not healthy. My clone humidity dome works just fine. but thanks!

I think the ladies are shaping up quicker then I expected. Only one of the ladies was from a femmed seed and that was the Wonder Woman which showed sex really early (3wks and a few days) the rest were not to fast to show but they are doing well now. Its funny when you think the light bulbs are still bright, then you switch to new ones and look out!!! they are way brighter so I am running with two new bulbs 150w/400w and they are putting out 66,000 lumens total being there brand new...the ladies are loving it!

Okay I couldn't find a black plastic box, but will keep looking. So now my question is after I Duct tape the outside making it light proof, how full should I run it? I am guessing the bubbles bursting at the surface hitting the cuttings is what I am to try for. I am going to find that coral safe silicone glue to hold the stones and tubing in place then going to try it out. I also might make a bigger model I found on here that is more of an aero cloner but using pvc/sprayers etc but trying this out first.

this is a real good unit to use i have seen in my expiernce ..ive tried rooting in soil and aerocloner but i have noticed this was works really well withing 2 days ..i use the powder but if i can get some gel id use the aerocloner they sprout roots in 2-3days and soil,cubes with a humidity dome take LONGER days ...

if you want to save a coulpe bucks and make your cloner more diy and able to hold more clones use something smaller then the black plastic holder

Hey, whats in the water in your pic? Or is that just the light that makes it look dirty? I like the cheap option you showed in your pic though if someone out there already had an air pump they could whip it together with out leaving the house. Anything further down the path of the darkside and I might make the plunge.

Hey P101 I might just try your idea on the paint or just shop till I find it in black and build another one.

Hey KBG, Thanks for stopping by! The Purple W is really shaping up nicely. I have two definite phenos going of the PW. The taller one has more spear shaped cola and not as dense as the mutant sister and more sativa dom growth patterns. The mutant three leafer is the one I have been taking tons of macro's of. I think it will be done earlier then the taller PW and finish around in about four more wks at most five. The Wonder W should finish right around there as well.

The clones are strange from the three leafer. It didn't root as well for whatever reason and I have only a few from that plant. I am going to keep a mom of that one and probably not the taller version, not sure yet tho.

The wonder woman is showing some serious yield potential. It has nice budding sites that are getting fat and it was super easy to take clones and they root fairly easy. Even where usual popcorn buds would be on that plant there are instead decent size buds forming so far. I wish I had bought a ten pack of her instead of just a single femmed seed.

The really tall one's main cola has its own 150w hps and it helps even out that light on that side. I wish I had a spot for that plant outside it would have made tons..ok well not tons but a lot! The wonder W from nirvana states it can produce 1/2 kilo/m2 in perfect conditions and I can see why. Lots of arms and nice buds forming. Scrog of this alone would be nice.

Hey MG , the last pic set I posted was mostly the PW. The last pic of that set was the Wonder Woman (WW). WW is also listed as a medium level of THC. It was listed on Nirvana's site as being fresh genetics of a skunk strain they previously hadn't used or at least put on the market. A cross would be nice with these two. I orig thought mostly Indica was my thing for my space, but there is something cool about running something that shows the almost alien traits of the Purple W. I hadn't run anything like this before so it has my attention still.

Downside is the shorter PW (PW2)that is maturing the fastest and the fattest was a pain to clone for me. I only have sick looking clones from that plant. I may try a reveg attempt if things haven't gotten better with the clones by harvest. There are tons of things that could be worse but slow clones when others are taken off bites! It is probable a safe bet to assume that the bigger taller PW (PW1) is more on the Sativa side. I will gladly keep it but really like how the mutant pw2 grew from start to now.

Wonder also if just because it was a mutant tri leaf if that's why the PW2 has the traits I am digging. Some say you will get less green from a mutant some say 30% more oh and more tend to be male or hermi I don't know enough to say anything. I don't care about yield even from this plant as long as it's clones show the same growth pattern and smoke nice. I wouldn't mind talking dirty to it and stress it a little and get some femmed seeds as well.

Hey thanks for the info HS. I never looked at the user cp before then when I did thats what I saw. I am pretty sure one was a neg from Redtail I think not sure, and the other was left blank in comment area.The two colors other then the main color of dots which is yellowish green were spaced out amongst the yellowish dots so not sure if its a progressive color deal or fractions of another one idk. I could care less about the points. If they meant that I was being mean without reason then I do, as I am not that type of person.

It reminds me though to assume people take things I and everybody post out of context or misunderstood at times. It also makes me wonder why people without grow logs or without mj hobby experience or a compassionate relationship with medical mj would even be on here or have the ability to even give out a rep point. all the politico threads are as old as the "What kind of Bud is this" threads.

Well I gave them a dose of Liquid kool bloom a lil bit over 1 teaspoon. The recommend amount is 1-2 teaspoons.

The hermi sac was opened and all my ladies are seeded now, except 1 plant which is a Thai as well.

Do you know if theses seeds are from the hermi pollen, if they will be females or be hermi as well.?:wtf: I don't wanna say the kool bloom stressed them to seed,since my other thai recived the same dosage amount and its just fine but it could be a possibility.?

Very very nice looking buds you have esp at the date of flower wow. I feel like I might need to add some more lumens into my grow. I red threw most of your thred what kind of light are you using?. You might want to try some sort of LST during a run sometime, its pretty amazing how you can manipulate your plant to grow like a vine or soemthing lol. Good job. Cant wait for the coming weeks. I think we started flowering within a week of each other so it should be nice to see so much beautiful buds.

01-12-2010, 12:36 PM
Hey EnhAnceD, thanks for stopping by. I started with with a bunch of seeds and only one of them was femmed so I wasn't going to LST them without knowing what I had. I had added height to my homemade bloom box so I kinda wanted to see how tall I could safely go with placement of my light hood and venting. I did LST on my last few rounds listed in under my signature, and I liked using scrog. Already have been training the clones from these ladies and boy are they growing fast.

Using a Horilux Eye Super Enhanced HPS 400w and then added a small enclosed ballast 150w hps to even out the light. The smell is overpowering once I open the box up and start messing around with the camera. The Purple W's are very photogenic, and if they get even heavier I will be using some string to hold the branches up more and off each other. I think these two strains in my box aren't the best to run together. The Wonder Woman is a skunk variety and it can fill out this box easily, I can see just doing two and maxing them out under a scrog or just let it go natural. The Purple Wreck would really work out in a scrog for me.

MB, yeah if they offered Smellovision on this site I would kick in the bucks for it. The Wonder W is less noticeable compared to the Purple W. The PW is earthy and down right Dank with some fruity tone to it.

On a side not there is a person on here trying to say he can sex a plant that has less then two sets of true leaves that somehow are four weeks old and probable under 4-5 inches at best...http://boards.cannabis.com/medical-strains/179773-chronic-les-rookie.html#post2056794 Why are there soo many made up posts on here...sad

Thanks for all the compliments!

I wish I wasn't color blind. I can see that the PW's buds are darker then the Wonder W, but other then that the purple isn't something I can distinguish. A friend told me they must have invented a way to correct my naturally color blind eyes for the very reason of appreciating bud!

When I grew gorilla style outdoors I remember mapping out where every plant was in relationship to each other, which was a bad idea for many reasons. Then when walking to where there should have been a good sized Afganica looking lady I couldn't find it anywhere..but I could smell it. My friend who was helping me look yelled at me to stop right where I was until he got close, then he showed me it was the 7-8ft monster tree in front of me a few yards. It all looks the same to me as other vegetation. This plant took four people to connect hands and circle the plant. It didn't produce much tho being it didn't have as much direct sun as it needed. Its all about the gps now. I don't miss being paranoid deep in the woods either. I just wish I could see well.

Hey I just remember something I believe HS mentioned regarding leaf growth abnormally growing when stressed like the leaf pattern changes and goes non-typical, anyone see signs in my pics of that?

I had a friend take a look for some color marbling that I was worried about, and he mentioned the green and even the lighter green leaves of most of my plants are showing a reddish color marbling affect. From what I have read it is more of a Phosphorus overload sign.. any thoughts? I will upload some shots later tonight with that being a focus. I am not too worried but I tried a bud booster similar to Beastly blooms two feedings ago, and even though I used half of the recommendations I think I may have shocked them and threw the ph off (7) by using it. I did a simply flush with corrected water (distilled with Calmag) and used water with tigerbloom diluted a bit on the following feeding. I also topped the containers off with more soil hoping it will help buffer the ph as well.

If it doesn't turn around within a few days I will do a troubleshooting form but I am thinking I have it corrected. Its almost to the point where within a week or two it will be just plain water for these ladies so not too much time to correct anything that gets weird without flavor/yield suffering.

Oh and MB, I switched to D batteries! And while playing with the camera I put a regular battery in my charger....poof acid all over my counter! safety first people...

Here is some shots of the damage. I am talking about the colored edge of the leaves, it very well could be shock but not sure. Overall they seem fine and hopefully I stabilized things. Just trying to bring these down in the best condition possible.

01-16-2010, 03:50 PM
Looks fine to me. I see what your talking about. Could just be that the plant is sucking something from the leaves its not getting in the soil. Which is fine as long as it doesnt progress too much. I really like the shape of your leaves. You have only a few burnt tips so I wouldnt think it was over nuting, and they are not yellowing really as it appears in the pics so I wouldnt really think it was a ph problem with nutlock or something. Start with your water and the run off water for ph. The flush was a good Idea. I think u should be fine. Kinda a nice looking hue haha.

Thanks EnhAanceD (EAD), I didn't really want to believe nute lock up cause that's what happened on my last indoor run and it still produced but it could have been way healthier.

When I went beginning from seed I transplanted before I was able to sex my last run and then shortly after that I was able to sex them. After killing the males I didn't want to throw out good medium so after pulling the root ball anything left in the pot I threw in a big container and mixed it with new soil and amendments figuring the soil was barely used a week since the transplant. I didn't think about the ph buffer that would have been washed out a bit and things fluctuated too much and I was to slow to react(even slow in soil terms)and I payed that price.

A friend told me the leaves no matter what they indicate looked like autumn blaze maple's in the fall. The ph can vary a little without my eyes being able to notice the affects on the plants but I figured using 4.7 gallon containers it would be slower to change compared to when I used 3 gallon ones. I need a better ph meter as well, this one is a 30 buck cheapo all in one meter so its not that accurate. I have less then two weeks of feedings left and not sure if I should dare use the bloom booster I have it is a bit high on N 10-50-0 for this stage of things so I may just keep to the Fox trio and calmag plus distilled. To think there is still about 3.5 weeks left of this run floors me! I can't wait to see how much that bigger PW cola is going to be. Its begging for me to taste!

Those colored edges just might be the strain or the temp. changing the leafs that color! the leaf itself looks healthy....id not worry about it! despite wanting to pick a bit early i found my PW really packs on the weight in the very last 3 weeks....as soon as the plant get about 40% amber....the things stop growing in there tracks...i run them between 63-67 days and they are perfect!

Hey thanks for stopping by Killa, I noticed the same color on your last pic set in your current log. The reddish color near the jagged part of the leaf is just the strain then you think? I didn't do anything really major to stress it but figured I could have never know. Also when you run your crosses do you try the cold water feed to boost trich production? I think I have always feed them kinda cold water thru the whole grow so not sure if Icy water would help me. Oh and if anyone has grown a three leaf mutant before...have you had trouble with cloning it? Mine rooted but where really slow.

id say its strain characteristic....Never feed cold water....i just feed my plants room temp water which is around 73-75F....i dont mess around to much with my grows.....i just try to keep it as simple as possible....i used to worry about nute mixture and exact measurements, but when running a perpetual garden...i just make sure temps, and humidity are right and my nutes are phed from 5.8-6.0 and PPM below 1200 and we are all good....i dont worry if my bloom plants get veg formula one in a while or vise versa...i just make sure they are getting some food.

Never had a problem cloning it either.....even though i think the seeds are from the same breeder....it seems like we might have different phenos....mine looks more sativa dom....probably taking after the TW in the cross...yours looks more indica dom...i like the one that your growing, which seems to be the pheno i see when most people grow PW, It seems like i have a very different pheno....ive havent really seen anyone grow a PW like the one i have.

MonkeyBone
01-17-2010, 04:24 PM
Those are huge nuggets!!

Yeah, like killa said, feed them with room temp water. Helps a lot! When I think my plant will need water soon, I take a bucket with 1 gallon of tap water and I let it sit in the grow room for 24h. Makes a bit more humidity, and water is now at room temp for watering!

Just add some nutes and you're good to go! Or not if your plant needs plain water.

Crystals, OMG, crystals...You need a super macro pic of them crystals!!! Try taking some!!

I am working with two definitely different Pheno types of the PW. I take more pics of the Indica dom one. I will include a pic set of just the Sativa one later today. Its soo big I cannot take it in and out the box without risking it snapping in half, its heavy.

I use a basement spot and have always kept my water on the cold concrete and thought nothing of it. I was reading a thread about feeding Ice water to promote resin production in the final days of flower. The water I use is probably 63F I will check later but that would be my guess. I have fed water like that since they were born so they are used to it. I cannot use my municipal water its just nasty. I use distilled water plus Calmag thru this whole grow...yeah expensive. I am going to buy a RO system to cut down on the distilled and then I would also get good drinking water as well. My ice cubes stink...ick

By the looks of it man, some of that trim will probably be stronger than most buds out there on it's own! Recently I got a bunch of trim for cheap from a friend and I just used the silkscreen method to sift for kif; it's really really easy, I definitely recommend it. I'm sure you know this but you could also make all sorts of edibles, tinctures or hash/hash oil. All are definitely worth the effort to get the most out of your crop. Also, when you use it for kif, I've heard the leftovers can still be used for edibles though I've yet to try it.

Hey thanks for checking in and checking back!
I would say for just yield alone it would be the Wonder Woman. In a meter squared it can produce a half a kilo in perfect conditions. It has a very strong skunk parent and it smells pretty dank. I could just grow two of them and veg for a longer time and fill my box. The Wonder W has many branches that are just starting to fill out and start to get dense.

The PW is falling all over the place just like the Orig Trainwreck parent. I have some branches tied to the main stem/bamboo just to keep the tops off each other. I might try to grow out a male of the Purple Wreck and pollinate a femmed Blue Widow I have waiting to be grown out. The Purple Wreck would be very cool to run outdoors.

I would like to do some cross breeding outdoors this summer. Currently I have on hand Moby Dick AK48,Satori,Hashberry,White Rhino,Hash Plant, Super Silver Haze and a few others to pick from for future grows

Oh and today I did try to methods of quick drying bud. I used my microwave on a small bud and went at 40-50% power for 10sec at a time then switched things up by using the oven. I was already making some poppy seed muffins so I turned the oven off and left the door open and had a the microwaved bud on a sheet pan and I went out for the day.

The sample I took of the Purple Wreck was good enough for me not to want operate heavy machines so it will be just right when its finally chopped in two weeks. The smell is getting ripe and dense. When I breathe around it I can taste the fruity and musk like flavor of the Purple W. The Wonder W is all skunk smelling but still nice.

I don't know if you've grown this strain out before frosty, but some strains are done when they're all milky. I"ve waited forever for amber trics on an indica once that went so far overripe it hermied. And there was no improvement in the head.

Hey Shov I wish you wouldn't have said that....now where are my scissors! I would like to flush a bit before the chop so all they are getting is water from here on out. Milky huh geez I was really hoping to for some amber just so I can tell myself I grew it to the best of my ability. The Purple Wreck is a neat hybrid, I have one leaning more Sativa and the shorter fat one is more Indica. Killa's purple is a bit different but he ran the PW from the same breeder and runs them 65-67days for 40% amber. For resin production it was recommended by the breeder to go 65 days. I want to take the fat one down......I am going to think on it just a bit. Now I will read my bible (Killa's Purp Thread) and reflect. I would love to believe I have a faster maturing pheno then normal but I don't know enough to say.

Anyone wanna chime in and let me know if you have had only Milky trichs and still had really potent herb.

hey FW, what's good? i've also had the same thing happen to me that SH is talking about. sometimes trichs just don't want to turn amber. amber is a sign of over-ripeness anyhow. THC starts to degrade quickly once the trichs turn amber so it's not really a big deal. at least make sure the majority of them are cloudy and you should be sitting pretty. keep in mind that the THC-A will covert to THC during the cure.

keep up the great work!

I think your right here shake but i feel real world testing and book's explanations can sometime be a bit different...Despite some of my weed looking great....i smoke weed to get high....NEVER to enter beauty pagents....i will grow Black weed if the THC content is crazy high! Saying that....i really think amber trics are a SIGN that the plant is nearing its FULL maturity...going overboard with amber trics....SOME will explode....This is not what i look for....I try to run my plants ALWAYS to 40-65% amber tricomes...The long cure i give my weed make those numbers go up because tricomes still mature during cure..Usually to 85%+ amber tricomes...i never usually see exploded or deformed tricomes.....NOT saying i havent went overboard and learnt my lesson...picking at 85% amber tricomes....I do believe ALL plants will mature to this point...but some growers are less patient then others..

I think when a plant get over rip....it will almost everytime hermi....trying to regenerate itself.....really no matter how stable the line is....ive ran most if not all my strains to the point of over rip....most of the time it the tester plants you see in my micro boxes....and that usually the reason i run them...to pull plants at different times to test the potency...and to try things different....if i ruin a plant in the micro grow...oh well its only a 1/2 oz which could be 2oz+ in the tent....I really want to do a study in this....I really think cannabis only has a 5-9 day window in which the plant is fully mature, and at full potency...It will have to be a hypothesis i test when i move to california.....I have a graduate degree in statistical process control....so i do have a good background to test this hypothesis!

It was a bit harsh being that at the time the lady was still being fed, but it still has a nice kick. 2 wks sounds better then three...I can't stop thinking about harvesting these three its going to make fishing all the more relaxing.

Bro be patient....no point of growing a plant for 100 days only to pick it 7-10 days early....its makes such a difference when running strains with a short flowering period like the PW....65 days isnt long.....there are some long hazes down here that take a half of year of flowering! Ive picked the PW from 54-70 days i thinks its sweet spot is right around 65 days like ive said.....good luck

Stay Safe guys..

Killa thanks for checking in , and for talking me down! I will hide my scissors and my noose for at least 10 more days then I may revisit the idea of chopping. I figured they weren't done yet by looking at the trichs. They are for the most part milky though and barely any clear. There is growth on the PW Buds but it is less noticeable then the Wonder W for sure. By looking at the Wonder W you can see the tip of the main cola is still growing up and throwing out new white hairs and starting to fill out. I need to be busy this next two wks or this is going to drive me Bananas.

Thanks again for everyone's advice and tips... oh and I was thinking about drying the trim from this run and freezing it till the next one is done so that I have enough trim to make some hash any favorite methods? I might get a set of bubble bags.

Killa, last year one plant had 4 months of flowering, only cloudy trichs, and everything was bone dry. Dried on the cob! Even with steady supply of water.

And weed wasn't realy potent, but very pine tasty.

Anyway, for sure the best way to know when it's ready is to take samples...

All about the taste for me now. I tried my sample and fast cured a few ways and knowing it would be still harsh compared to slow cured...and I liked it.

We are in the same boat my friend. We can do it. Iv picked only one small nug, and I didnt necessarily pick it, it got snipped by accident. So I put it ontop of my pc modem and the next night it was warm and dry. This was about a week and a half ago, I vaporized it in my new Launch Box, had that planty taste to it, but boy did it give it to me. Very very strong. Now I wait. thought I only had 5 days until eta but Iv been informned another week of flower will be needed so. I with ya bub.

Two weeks from finishing this grow,,,, After this round I will run some clones might log it not sure yet. Here is my current seed stock list. There are many on here that have tons of killer seeds, I am happy with the small collection I have as it should last me about three years or more. Until now I haven't used a store bought seed until this current log. Seed stock as follows

Hashplant Haze Fem
Moby Dick Fem
Blue Widow Fem
Cali Hash Plant Fem
Purple Wreck Reg
Satori Reg
Hashberry Reg
White Rhino Reg
Super Silver Haze Reg
OG18 X Skunk Reg
Kandy Kush X Skunk Reg
LA Confidential X Skunk Reg
Sleestack X Skunk Reg

I will probably add one new strain to my perp cycle every other round unless there is one that really deserves to repeat again and again. I might run another White Rhino until I get a female. Breeding some of these in the summer might happen as well not sure yet.

Thanks!

I thought if I was going to buy seeds might as well get a bunch at once and store them properly. Not knowing what I was working with, and never growing indoors in a small cabinet didn't help me on my first grow log here. It does show what reading on here, and getting some of the best info/tips/help from smart gardeners can lead to. Bagseed no more unless it's a bag of seeds from your neighbor:thumbsup:!

The Blue Widow looks like a nice variety it was listed as med thc which I am happy with. But I got 3/3 males with the Wht Rhino this last season and want to try it.

49 days of flowering insanity! Strange coloring in the PWs. PH is fine not sure if it is just that time or its possessed. Neat leaf shot I thought would highlight. If the color means something bad then I don't want to be good...that top cola is str8 up stank! You can taste it just by moving the pots around in the cab. The Wonder W is definitely something that makes big side shoots and nice mid sized colas and one nice main one. Anyone prefer a 4 bag 1 gallon bubble set or the 7-8 bag set?

Okay so I have asked a few people who already know I am bananas this question and figured might as well do it here.

Have any of you smoked after work, then showered and after that do other hygiene related stuff in the bathroom and then hopped back in the shower and start taking another one without even remembering taking the previous shower until your already standing under the water again? Well that was me about two days ago and I was all "Who used my shower before me???? I live alone...Hey why is my hair already wet? hmmm

Well I get pretty blazed off close to nothing so doing similar things isn't off character but damn. Also I do have medical issues and changes in my meds do weird things but it gets even more strange... I have had two separate cases on different days in the past week where I had long lasting feeling of Deja Vu 2min or more, mixed with a feeling of Vertigo that lasted a bit less. Words that my friends spoke were exact in every detail that I felt in my Deja Vu even down to my dog barking at the time foretold. I would like to say it was the sample of the Purple Wreck that I smoked all by itself but with my medical issues I will never know. I don't take str8 up crazy pills but close enough to me to not discard their powers at play. I know this is a grow log but I would feel even more strange asking it on other forums or even this one in another section. Anything similar happen to you?

shit like that happens to me everytime i over smoke :stoned:... one time i forgot my name and didnt know anything about anything it was like my memory was erased.. it was actually pretty scary ahhah.. didnt smoke after that for a good month.. this other time me and a buddy made some ridiculously strong batch of cookies and i found myself hugging his couch and my lady was trying to talk to me on the phone and i just couldnt talk back .. talk about some serious couch lock :stoned: .... but i think its more with the grade of quality you smoke because some peeps ive smoked with say "its take like 3 joints and 5 bowls to get me high" then they cant even finish a joint of my product before they have to tap out.. or they take a gravity rip and they ask me if i laced it because they feel like they are on acid

Hey thanks for checking back people!

I am hoping for 2-3 oz each I suppose. I would be happy with anything but these ladies look to be more generous so possibly more. The clones will be run most likely in a scrog config. I have gifted a few strains to a buddy who will then give me back a cutting of Sour Cream(g13-Sour Diesel), and Hashberry since mine was male this last run. Moving the big pots I am working with bites so scrog might be the bees knees for me.

So I have flushed these ladies for the last week and will one more time up until harvest. I just use ph'd water and I have added a very very little bit of molasses..

The Wonder Woman is really frosty and it is easier to see for me with the plant being a lighter green compared to the two Purple Wrecks. Wonder Woman's Breeder (Nirvana) states 8 weeks of flowering which would make tomorrow chop time, but I am going to give it a few more days and check trichomes. Her branches are full of nugs from the main stalk to the tip, but they haven't become rock solid like the PW.

The samples I have taken were from the two PW and I figured it was strong to me but then when I shared some with a friend it was confirmed that it be some stinky stanky smoke! 3-4 hits is all I smoke. Very berry almost grape/musky smells when you break up the bud and it has that in the taste when burned but with an added peppery taste. Curing will take it to the next level of flavor, it ain't bad now I just quick dried the samples in a few days so there was some green taste to it but not bad.

Hey KGB, Sorry you had some bad luck, was it avoidable or doomed from the start? I bought my seeds from the Tude... in UK and the breeder is from Cali its Reserva Privada's Purple Wreck. Out of three seeds I was lucky to get two Females one was more Sativa Dom and one was a mutant which is the more Indica dom of the two and overall I like what I have. I wish the other stains would have given me a female as well because the Purple W will most likely be a evening time med for me. I get stuck on stupid after a few tokes and even video games are too much for me when medicated. I stuck to Bird watching and playing with my dog he don't judge me much...

Well that I too understand but you can always take an under developed branch and chop that and let the rest ripen. It wouldn't stress enough to do any real damage would be my thinking were talking about 7 or less days so nothing really major would happen it might take some energy away from the buds but its a risk I would take oh wait I have taken....

Anyone ever have a strain that taste great anyway you smoke it but when you vape that same strain it taste weird? I may have been running it too hot but I was dumb and bought a cheaper vaporizer compared to the one I really wanted. It is digital and a whip style easy vape. Even the purple taste off to me when vaped. set at 360f so not sure if I was just not using it right.

frostedwonder
03-05-2010, 10:24 PM
Okay fully tasted and tested the three ladies/2 strains I finished and if I compare the two strains to each other its like night and day.

The Purple Wreck I ended up with two pheno types.

Lemony tasting one leaning more Sativa then Indica.
Nice vigor and a tad taller then I wanted, I would have liked to scrog clones of this vs going from seed.Or switch to 12/12 sooner. Good yield but not the smoothest smoke. Not bad buzz: 1 to 10 with 10 being the best, I would say 6.5.

Fruity almost grape one leaning more Indica then Sativa.
Again nice vigor from these seeds. Perfect plant for a small space. Great yield and awesome taste and smell. This was also a "three leafer" Mutant that happened to be female. I am not sure if by being a mutant it would make it more or less sensitive to shock or stress but the clones from this were not the prettiest ladies. As for buzz I would say damn similar to the other 6.5 but not the strongest green I have had and not the weakest either. Going for med strength herb with killer looks and taste then I would recommend this, but not for pain relief its got some kick but not worth what you see places selling it for.

Wonder Woman
Killer skunk strain for sure! If you love the taste and smell of serious skunk then you have found it. Very nice yield and in a small space. Mine was untopped and still had many nice sized nugs around the big main cola. This ended up being my favorite compared to the two types of Purple W I ended up with. Big flavor and big bang. It is the kind of buzz I make sure I am not expected to do anything by anyone for the duration of the ride. You can function on it for sure but the smell permeates from anything it is near and lingers. Buzz rated:7 I plan on buying more to have on hand and then try a seed run sometime. For I am a skunk head!
