View Full Version : Super Small G-13 DWC
ForgetClassC

Well, I've been bored, so here it is............
I have started a very small (< 1/2 gal.) DWC. I started a hopefully female G-13 seed in a 1.5" rockwool cube. It is in a 3" net pot with hydroton. The nutes are General Hydroponics Maxi-Series. It breached the service on the 21st so that's when I decided to say that it started. Once the little one develops more roots I will be transplanting it into a hempy system. Don't ask why the transplant from one system to the next, I have no idea, lol. As of now, it is growing on 2 30w CFL(6500k) and one 13w CFL(6500k). The 13w is because my box has 3 sockets and I only had 2 bulbs. I plan on getting 3 NEW 6500k either 30w or atleast 23w. For flower, going to with with the most wattage that fits in there. We shall see what happens.

I wanted to transplant into hempy due to the 'no moving parts' part of it. No buzzing, but I might just get a larger airstone so it is quieter. Wee shall see. The tap root has been in the water for about 3 days now, and now they rest are just about there. We shall have some fun watching this little girl.
BTW the seed is not from any bank or anything, just from a really nice G13 nugget. It was one of 2 that I had found out of my friends OZ. So we shall get some niceness.

Looks cute. :D
I'd suggest you go with 2700K for flowering. It has more red then the primarily blue 6500k. :thumbsup:
Plus keep in mind that you found seeds in buds grown locally I assume. So, the pollen that fertilized that bud came from a male flower. It may have been from a hermi flower ON one of the G-13 females, but it might not have either. Therefore you may have a cross of G-13 and something else.
After that you should read a little about G-13. I got a clone of this "famous" plant last month. THEN I read about it on line. Turns out no one is really sure this strain ever really existed at all. So, I called the place where we bought it and they said it was a G13 crossed with Afgani, Bought from a seed bank as such. This tells me what I bought is likely pretty good, but no one can be 100% sure it's REALLY G-13 at all.
At this point G-13 is thought to be a name you can stick on some unknown random bud that's been well grown. Know body will know any better as this is an unconfirmed strain. So who can really argue it's not G-13? Even if they say they had G-13 and it wasn't like this before, who's to say THAT was really G-13?
Anyway, looks good. Just thought I'd throw that at you.:D
ForgetClassC
01-27-2010, 02:34 AM
I get what you are saying, but we know it's indoor and they are growing multiple strains, but that's all we know. These guys are turning out amazing buds, consisting of the following strains so far:
-GDP
-OG Kush
-Kush
-Afgani x Kush
-Juicy Fruit
-the previously stated G-13
-Trainwreck
-Purple Urkle(which makes me think their GDP is 'their' GPD, not from seed, seeing as its Purple Urkle x OG Kush)
I think that's it. But these have been coming in pretty consistently, so I think the growers got it down. So seeing as it is all the same grower, and all the plants are nice, lol, I really don't care what exact strain it is, just know its a G13 crossed with one of the above. Should be nice.
Oh, and yes, this is not my first grow, I know about the 2700k, but thanks for the tip.

Nice looking Box setup you got there. Im working on Cardboard box right now. I have too many plants haha. Im curious tho, how do you set up the pc fans like 120mm or 80mm pc fans to work with the box. How are your temps and do you plant on topping her..hopeing for a her lol. Cant wait for the next few weeks to pass to see how she turns out. Keep it going.
ForgetClassC
01-29-2010, 03:10 AM
Glad there are so many people watching. Thanks, I like this box as well. The fan is just an 80mm hooked up to a cellphone charger. Cellphone charger because it is a contained DC adapter which gives about 5.6v making the fans nice and quiet. I had/have a 12v adapter, but its annoyingly loud. The intake is the width of the box by 3" covered with pantyhose, keeps the hair out. I plan on FIM'ing her once, then topping those. Hopefully ending up with 8 main/top colas.
Should be fun.
Oh, expect pictures once a week, had a pic everyday for the first week. Now just once a week. Going to flower at week 3 I believe, but who knows yet.

Interesting, lol that easy. Im very excited to make this grow cab. I feel that I have a nack for Cardboard and ducktap lol so this will be fun. I got my white Primer Paint and Some Contruction glue. Gonna go all out with this badass box.
Fimm then Top?
Maybe you ment top then fimm. either way lol, good ideas. The fimm is usually what u do about 5 days into flower and it will just make the top grow 2-4 main buds bud I dont think iv herd of then topping a fimm b.c that would take out the point of a fimm haha. :stoned: too early to be blazing and coming on here hahah.
I get what you ment tho. Good Idea. Remeber tho when u do these things, they set you back some time. Fimming usually sets yo back about a week, same as supercropping, babies need to heal up. Best of luck to ya and thanks.

FIM'ing I'm pretty sure you can do at anytime during the process (I prefer veg to not hermie) which will then create the 4 shoots(FIM'ing referring to the process of removing 80% of the new growth) then, once she has recovered(hopefully a week or so) I will top the 4 new growths. Making them 8 new growths. I don't know what you mean by not getting that? I think I had it pretty spot on. Who knows. Anyways, looked at her today, nothing but positive. These nutrients are extremely easy to deal with, and so far, I have not had to do anything, seeing as my water is well water (have fish, done all the test already) with slight hardness (VERY slight) and the nutrients so far with the doses I have given(3/4 tsp/gal. max so far) it lowers the pH to around 6.8 so I imagine when the time comes to add the maximum 1 1/2 tsp/gal. the pH will still be no problem. We shall see.

Yeah, lol, I was like maybe I am too high, but I thought it made sense, anyways, I would remove all other bud growth other than the hopefully 8 top colas. This, all under around 5000 lumens/sq.ft. in just under a sq.ft. I hope it turns out nice, I am working on a carbon filter now. Hopefully going to have this done in 3 months exactly, but who know if the tricomes will let it happen.

Here's some more pics of her. Her leaves had grown out and I was not satisfied with the FIM so I took a little bit more off the top. Now it looks in great shape. Just did nutrient change and shes up to 1 tsp/gal. of the MaxiGro. Next week is the last week of veg for her, then its off to the transition. Already have 6 23w CFL 2700k so I'm going to throw 3 of those in once it is time which will give me around 4,800 lumens/sq.ft. but the important part is that the are is only a 10"x10" so proportionately(12"x12"=144sq.in., 10"x10"=100sq.in., 44sq.in/144sq.in.=.30=30% less area, meaning the light would be 30% more intense in the area making the 4800x1.3=6528 lumens/sq.ft.). Right now she is going off of 2 30w 6500k CFL and 1 14w 2700k just for the spectrum. Here's the pics.
Pretty self-explanatory on what the pics are of.

Here's an update:
Only been one day, but lots of progress, with these DWC set-ups it doesn't stop speeding up growth. Everyday its grown more than it did the day before, its crazy. The roots have literally increased by 75%. Stem has thickened by a good 25% and the secondary growth is giant compared to last night. Take a gander. Oh and the FIM'ing seemed to work, there seems to be at LEAST 6 nodes emerging from the top of the plant now. Its still a little confusing in there, but there's gonna be a good amount of tops to this girl. I don't think I'm going to need to top her anymore, at least not for awhile, gonna see if she wants to get any taller, might take one bulb out for a couple days to encouraging stretching, or just add more 2700k bulbs rather than the two 6500k. What do yall think.

Here's some new pics from day 27.
I ended up topping her, the FIM for some reason didn't do anything, weird. I must have missed it by a bit, or something, I don't know, but the topping has, the 2 secondary growths are emerging and the top of the plant is not. Here we go.
You can see in the picture of her underneath that I have been trimming up a bit, took off I think 3 sets of fan leaves and let the secondary growths keep going, the leaves were just getting too big, didn't want all that energy going to those leaves.
I am going to throw it into transition nutrients tomorrow, need to build my carbon-filter very soon.

Id wait to clip anymore fan leaves for a few reasons. Clipping will stress your plant a bit which can cause grow the slow down. Your baby is young and right now explosive growth is occuring esp with your DWC. People use the excuse that the leaves are in the way or not getting any light so I should just clip them off. Thats actually a bit wrong. You want as many leaves as you can get and keep threwout the whole grow. They are the plants energy source. If the leaf is not getting enough light or has become useless to the plant it will wilt up and fall off. Lower leaves will usually do this as they are older and as the plant grows it utulizes the upper grow more and does get rid of lower leaves. Clipping isnt a 100% nono, i do clip, but usually I wait until the leaves just yellow and i can tug really gently and they fall right off.
Also just wanted to point out. Now that you have topped your plant, the hormone that normaly causes the main stem to keep going up is rerouted into those few nodes below so you dont really need to worry about the plant wasting energy. Less stress = less hermies = GOOD.
Didnt want to do anything but give you food for thought. Iv found that you really do want to leave the large fan leaves on as they provide the juice for that perticular nodes branch. Iv clipped the fan leaves on one plant all on the right side, so only fan leaves on the left side, and the branches on the left grow much more with many more nodes and the buds were fuller and larger as well than on the right side. Tuck the leaves in behind if you feel that they are in the way. HOpe this helps.
ForgetClassC
02-10-2010, 09:01 PM
K, sounds good to me, yeah I wasn't going to go crazy witht hte clipping, just wanted the first couple nodes to be fan leaf free. Due to the size of my box, I can only have so much in there, and when the upper nodes get larger and I have to LST them, I need some room there. I wasn't planning on taking anymore leaves off for awhile, she needs to get up there a bit. Can't wait for next week or so.

Well, she's starting to flower. As of now she is in her new transition mixture of 1 tsp. MaxiBloom and 1/2 tsp. MaxiGro and is in the dark till tomorrow at midnight-ish. I have been building my carbon filter today, just need to find a panty hose, probably going to the store tomorrow, and then about another 20 minutes of tinkering and then it should be done. Will take pics tomorrow.
I have changed the timer so that she is on from 9pm to 9am so tomorrow when she goes off I will unplug the light until the day after tomorrow sometime after 9am so that when 9pm comes around, the timer will turn the light on.

Indeed this things roots are insane, taking in so much water now, I top off the res about every other day with just water. My water is straight neutral, and the nutrients make the water a bit acidic, I have yet to actually test it with a kit, but seeing as she has yet to do anything negative, and the water starts at 7 and can only go down so much, I am not too worried about her and the pH. If anything starts to happen shes gonna get some severe attention.

For the glasses:
Just as dark as possible, and possibly orange if you can, the color of the glasses will correspond with the wavelength and should cancel out as much harmful light as possible, orange because it is the opposite of blue and will change it the most.

Update at day 27. Pistols are showing up everywhere. I guess I should say pairs of pistols are popping out everywhere(I tried to think of more 'P' words I could use, but I have failed). She was getting quite bushy and blocking some light to her lower parts, so I decided it was time for a trim. Cut back about 8 leaves, only from the lower parts of her, and as well as the leaves the growth spots of those nodes. Going to be giving her her second week of flowering nutes tonight or tomorrow, probably tonight(no night classes today, woot). She has been taking in about 24 fl.oz. of fluids a day, which is intense by my standards. Check out that roots mass, sorry for shitty lighting but hey, its a root mass. Well, I'll take pics next time I think I haven't taken pics in awhile, but I'll definitely be here.

Well, she was getting far too tall, so I made her a SCROG screen and then did so. Also went around and cut anything that was below the secondary nodes on each growth. Sounds kinda weird but easier/better explained in photo. Going to make it so she has just a bunch of buds up top and nothing below, no wasted light. Worked last time with some bagseed(didn't scrog but it also wasn't hydro) so now that its some good, should work even better.:jointsmile:

go to your grow shop and ask if they might have some 2oz sample bottles....i think 4OZ bottle is $20 but you might call some shops to see who stocks it and ask if they might have a sample to try as you have "heard about it" and would like to try a little...the extra yield will pay for the bottle....you only use it once within the first 2 weeks of flower and 4oz will last a long time.:thumbsup:

I shall look into this, unfortunately the shops around here suck, there's only like 2, they are owned by the same people, and the only person that actually knows what is in the store, doesn't speak very good English. The other person, the owner I believe, is just up his own ass. Will take a look though, thanks for the :twocents:.

OK, well I wasn't very pleased with how my SCROG was doing, so I took it off, cut off the big mamma jammas that were on the bottom because they were just unmanageable, so they are sitting in a cup until I either find someone that knows what they are doing, or are just going in the trash. You can see her little bandage, wasn't going to, haven't for any other cuts, but these were pretty big, about the size of a dime, so I just put a small piece of tissue paper over it so that it would dry up nice with nothing bad in it. LST'ing is definitely my home, I feel like I could do a successful SCROG if it was in place before it needed to take effect. lol. Well, here she is day 32/11(flower).

OK, so honestly I don't know what she is doing. So far no more progress in terms of flowering. I'm going to give her another 36 hours of darkness just to see if it gets her back into the swing of things. And if she hermies than oh well, then I get a whole bunch of nice seeds with some buds around them, lol. Either way, this is just giving me something to do. Will take pictures tomorrow when I turn lights back on. Going to be looking for maybe some larger lights; running 3 23w 2700k, kicking out 1600 each, giving 4800 lumens total and then seeing that I'm going in a 10"x10" so it works out to be about 6912 lumens/square foot. Looking to get something like 3 30w 2700k that put out 2000 each giving 6000 total making it work out to about 8640 lumens/square foot. Should be nice if I can find them.

Sorry haven't been updating a lot, shes doing great, just waiting for this Thursday for pix, that will be 2 weeks into flowering. Shes coming along good, flowering in all the nodes that I have left. The second dark period did help throw her farther into the flowering process. After the 36 hours of dark, I removed all growth nodes that did NOT have pistols coming out of them. Now, she is focusing only on the buds that are there and won't create any more. I can already see where the colas are going to form and about how big they are, I'm going to make a guess and say that I will harvest about 3/4 oz.. That would be straight and will be some niiiice smoke. I highly recommend the Maxi Series if doing a budget grow, have had no problems and will continue to use this series for awhile, seeing as I haven't used anything really compared to how much I got. Well, stay tuned for updates this Thursday.

Sorry this took so long, but I finally got my camera so here they are. This is 2 days past 2 weeks into flowering, but I'm counting the transition period with that. So actually, in my book, this is week one of flowering. The first dark cycle didn't do anything but make a few pistols pop out, So I upped the nutes and threw her into another dark cycle, and that did it. She is on 12/12 and doing awesome. Had to do some more LST'ing and during this one of the lower branches broke off. Probably for the best, gave me some more room. Here she is today.

Nice-guys, that'd be straight, it would probably just be safe to talk it over with them, and then see if they can allow it, seeing as your there for a reason, and are a citizen of a different nation, but I wouldn't think them finding that out by surprise would be to greatly looked upon in China. But then again, maybe you having your own computer and such makes you that much harder to look into. Either way, I remember reading this article in school one time about China's drug laws, and there was shit about capital and life for possession and distribution. I was like 'Damn....wtf' but yeah, that was a bit ago so I haven't really looked into China's drug laws anytime since. Man am I rambling, there's some nice stuff around my way, its someones home mix, they call it J1, definitely nice stuff, Jack Herer x Train Wreck. Man, again, rambling. Thanks for stopping by, and can't wait to be smoking our shit this up coming holiday, gonna be sweet. Peace.

Thanks for the kind words. I'm going to be changing the nutrients today, and will take a pic when the misses gets back with the camera. Poor girl's mother recently feel and broke her neck, we are working to get her back to at least using her hands, so its been kinda chaotic.

Here is her new SCROG screen. Not as aggressive as the last one its just sitting on her right now. I've accidentally split some of the limbs, they all seem fine, I have wrapped the wounds with tissue until it dried up and then added support strings to keep tension off of the weak parts; and now everything is better. Here's the bud porn. She's getting VERY nice.

Wow, didn't realize they do it so frequently. No worries, its always a good thing to have people that care, that's what there's too little of in the world today. That and good nugs, maybe its not so coincidental? LOL. You should try and get a webcam set up so you can watch your harvest, lol that would be straight. On the other note, she is doing very nice, and indeed, shes got about another 3-4 weeks on her depending on how she does. I'm going camping at the end of this week so hope she does alright with me gone, she should do fine, a couple leaves might burn, but whatever. Til later, peace.

Have been working the SCROG screen into the plant, and vice-versa, and it's been going swimmingly. The tricomes are forming in what seems to be an exponential rate. It's awesome. Removed one of the 7, leaving 6 now colas. The 7th was just too small for the time being and in my eyes was just taking away what more the remaining colas could be. So now the 6 colas are spread evenly throughout the screen, some more into the screen than others. All is going good though. Still hoping to harvest before 420, but either way, going to smoke at least one pack of this stuff on the day of dank. Till later, peace.

Its fine I guess, I mean I can't contest it. The other party was very lenient and said I could keep what I have, but can't let it grow anymore. So, I'm getting a very harsh, semi done, and, while trimming it I found it was a hermie. The seeds were very immature but there, so maybe what I have will get me something. Harvest, even though WAY early, was still more than last time, and it smells better, so we shall see what happens.
On an even worse off note, the ICH that my aquarium has been struck by has taken the lives of 2 of my bala sharks and as of now, I can't find my black angel. Very un-pleased about the return from my camping trip.

Nah, its not the misses, its the people I live with. They started getting sketched out when they found it and since they pay the bills right now(unemployed) I can't really say anything. I really wish they would have let me finish, I was 2 weeks from flushing then 2 weeks of that, and boom, done. Very disappointing, the tricomes are about 60% cloudy with the occasional amber in there, so I might get a feeling from it. Smells really good but since I wasn't able to flush, I bet it will take some curing to make it taste better. Well, hope it makes it better.
