Not too sure your going to get anything smokeable by christmas, unless you harvest earlier than usual and smoke wet buds.

Loving the peach pots. Those must have set you back a bit, or maybe not.

Advice for Scroging is too train early so that nodes all the way down the plant can reach the screen before you switch. Once you switch, its just a case of placing the budsites in desired holes. You could also try Topping for a bonus but if you've never done Scrog, leave it out. That'll get you enough experience on its own.

Best to pretrain and then let go than use the screen as a barrier for vegetative. As long as the nodes are allowed to grow through the holes, they will be held back by the screen, the mistake you shouldn't make is to fill the screen up and let it get all messy. Keep in mind that the idea is too get an even canopy, so if one branch (main branch) for example is pretruding the screen and you train it back under, there will be nodes that won't be able to see much light. Its best you get to grips with pretraining pretty early on. Hope this all makes sense if it don't just ask. And whatever happens enjoy it :thumbsup:

Not so fast there LIP ;) , His strain is Top44 and since he is growing in a SCROG method, the plant should grow faster and flower fast. Good luck to you BuddyLove :p , I think you can pull it off in time. You might only have 4 days of dry before christmas though. Keep Em Green :thumbsup: ...

You go! Top 44 FTW!!!111one
Man, that light color is spooky though.
You've only got one light above right, thats why you're pointing their training toward the centre?

400 or 600?
I have a 250 HPS in the centre, and four 23w 2700K's, one in each "corner" of the plant, but I feel I'd like to have more...four 40w fours and a few blues. I'm sure I have the adequate lumens for 3 plants, but still, I'd like to soak them in light if I could.

11-12-2006, 10:12 AM
ive got a sumaster 600w hps super delux bulb it says 90k + with a bit of blue spec in it for less strech
ive been impressed with it so far and i got it cheap :)

now when i drop the screen on ill turn all the plants opposite ways so they all grow away from the centre of the light and the smallest lowest shoots will be in the centre of the screen and get the strongest light and the main tops will be on the outside of the screen
hopefully this will lead to a even canopy

also droped the light down to 14" temps 24-26 c

well see how things pan out over this week

what bloom boosters are you gona use

im thinkin about

day 10 - 20 dr hornbys big bud

day 20 - 30 pk 13 - 14

day30 - 37 reduced coco feed daily from 4ml/l -1ml/l

day 37 - 44 + ph water only

whats your plan

faithless
11-12-2006, 07:47 PM
.

My plan is unplanned currently.
All the good plant stores in my country are down south, I live midway in the capital city these days, and I can't find a single bleeding good store that stocks the somewhat specialized products I need.

There are some internet stores specializing in all my needs in my city, but I feel a little wary of them, even though I have friends who have used them without probs.

The favorite brand around here is Hesi, I was just planning to pretty much use their products. I suppose I was going to use something like your program, though I wasn't planning on eliminating nitrogen altogether. Would you recommend that?
I see that Hesi recommends switiching to their Phosphor Bloom when the flowers are beginning to max, but naturally they would...

http://www.hesi.nl/canada%20engels/index.htm

.

faithless
11-12-2006, 08:08 PM
.

Right, Ill be going:

1 Hesi Rhizopon Rothormon 100g
1 Hesi Bloom complex 1 liter (NPK 4-3-5)
1 Hesi Phosphorus plus 0,5 liter (PK 8-4)

.

BuddyLove
11-12-2006, 09:05 PM
yes still plenty of nitro
but plenty booster as well
planned base nutes are:

4ml / litre cannacoco ( 5-4-3 )
1ml / litre cannazym

flowering boosters:

2ml/5ml bigbud ( 0-1-4 )
1ml/2ml pk 13-14

well see how they go

faithless
11-12-2006, 09:14 PM

I'm sitting here thinking that if I mix Hesi Phosphorus plus with my regular veg. nute, I could get NPK: 7/16/8. Hmmm, sounds not too bad...what do you think?

BuddyLove
11-12-2006, 10:40 PM

car't argue with that mate :stoned:

i should do more reading and less weeding

BuddyLove
11-13-2006, 08:23 PM
right ive been looking into 13/14
according to the canna grow guide you still add 13/14 to the terra range of soil nutes
but as hesi nutes have a differnt product for pk in soil id go with the phos +
as 13/14 might not be compatable with there bloom feed
or you could try hammer head 9/18 its next on my hit list

faithless
11-13-2006, 08:40 PM
.

Hey thanks man, you didn't need to go to that trouble, much appreciated!
I already ordered the Hesi products today, they said I'll recieve them in 2-3 days, whihc means flowering by this weekend!

Apart from roothormone and some other junk, I ordered the Phos+ instead of their bloom, and am planning to mix my own nute.

My veg nute is something like 7/1/5, I'll refresh my memory on optimal flowering ratios in a minute, but spontaneously, I think I'll be mixing something like 7/18/10.

I've always wanted to do a scr0g, yours is making me want to even more. So far its just LST'ing for me(Check out my girls :) (http://boards.cannabis.com/showthread.php?t=90199), but maybe next time around. Also, one thing keeping me from doing it is growing from seed, I don't want a male all tangled up in my screen, so I'll probably wait til after next grow once I take some clones.

Also, how long much you planning on filling up the screen before flowering? I've read somewhere it takes at least 1 grow with a strain to see how much you should fill before switching the lights, cause some will continue to fill it quite a bit while flowering while other strains you should fill the screen like most of the way before flowering. Looking great though man, mas photos por favor!

11-25-2006, 10:01 AM
i red loads of info on scrogs but my t44 doesent want to grow very tall or have big side branches
if id have scroged my chronics the screen would be chocka block now
so i just placed the screen to see if these little ladys start streching in over the next couple of days if they look like all the bud sites are gona reach the screen ill leave it if not ill drop it or remove it completely it looks like it would have liked another 2 week or so in veg but im desperate for another crop asap

Come to think of it, the guy I got my clones from had a T44 about 4 foot tall. It was looking rather spindly and not much foliage, but it was quite branchy.
Whether it was that way because he wasn't taking good care of it or not, I don't know. He had it under a 400W HID, but his temps were around 33C.
He said himself that he knew it was too tall and he was just experimenting and mucking around with it.

.

BuddyLove
11-25-2006, 03:19 PM
33c yikes!!!

far from ideal my summer buds were absolute shite compared with the winter grow temps were 30+

so come april ill need a cool tube or a heat sheild like yours

hows the plastic fantastic working out ? have you now got both lights tannin you girls now ?

faithless
11-25-2006, 04:00 PM
The plastic has got the temps down about 2- 3c, from 29-ish to 26-ish. Theres about a 10cm gap all the way, which is allowing some heat to get by on the sides I think. I would have prefered to have it fit completely.

From my calculations, which may well be off, I'm losing about 1200 lumens, like a 20W cfl, which doesn't seem too much, and I'm hoping the lower temp
is worth it.
I don't think I'll be able to stuff the other lamp up, though I haven't tried, mainly because 650W for 3 plants seems like overkill, considering the electricity bill...

I'm hoping to be allowed to put a big old closet in a friends garage, in which case all 800W go up.

Just bought 30 quid of wire fence to scrog with and gave it up after half an hour. It's gonna take a bleeding whole day to push all those buds through, what with the working position being rather awkward and stuff. :mad:

Should have started that much earlier, I think.

yeh its worth a try
youll be able to see the results of my effort anyway
i may be wrong about them being too stumpy its just the way mine grow
the side branches are really short and thick
also id idealy like to keep the hps on 1212 constant and just move plants from the veg to the hps when theyre about 14" in 6.5l pots with a view to havein 2 600w grow rooms an a 250w cfl veg cab with a harvest every 3-4 weeks
im thinkin 12 1, 1/2-2oz plants under a 600w gona pick up my pots and more coco this week and give it a go after crimbo
does this sound like a workable plan ?

Haha, you two have me confused on the whole scrog concept. I always thought you put the screen on early in veg and let the plant grow sideways under it, which makes it grow more tops just like LST'ing then you flower once you get the screen filled. :confused:

Oh yeah guys, don't forget to check my log late this evening, going home to check on the girls and take some new pics :) today is day 14 of flower :dance:

faithless
11-25-2006, 06:57 PM
the side branches are really short and thick

Well, thats supposed to be a charactristic of T44, so it's probably correct.
Mine have been so heavily LST'd though, so I can't really tell.
To me, the rest of your plan sounds great, though I wonder if 6 liters is enough for 14" veggies? Mine were about 14" when they went in to flowering in 8 kilos of soil each, and I'm wondering if the pot size will make it to the end of flowering...

Splifted, you're right, I was hoping that my LST's would be able to get scrogged this late, I only thought of doing that a few days ago, because I was getting tired of tucking leaves and always finding a new bud top that was being obscured.
I tuck every day, but if I went and had a look now, I'd still find 10 small tops that are being hidden amongst my 3 gals.

My expereince now is that it would be a huge hassle to scrog this late in the game.

when i first started this thread mega said train well then drop on the screen and place the shoots in the desired holes
this should work well for this strain as its not a shooter like some types of weed which would require lots of training of the side branches
the idea of a screen is to equate the light distrubution to the bud sites but i feel without toping early on a plant may still be inclined to grow a main cola

as for the 6.5 litre pots in the hydo shop u get 6.5 + 11 litre square pots for the hydro systems now the last 2 grows when ive pulled out the root ball although filling solid the top 3-4" and the bottom 2-3" theres still a lot of space in the centre of the pot
im not sure but im thinking about 6.5l would be ok for a 2'-2,1/2' plant
t44 flowered at 14 " finished at 30"
chronic flowered at 14" grew well over 5' and was 3-4x the width of the 44 and had 5x the side growth

a few years ago i worked with a guy who kept telling me of this 80 plant grow him an his mates had when he lived in dam told me all this bollox special techniqs industrial fans on the roof and the like said it took 4 grows bfore they got a crop that was worth top dollor to the coffe shops got em to grow just one main bud the size of a rugby ball

of coarse im like yeh yeh yawn yawn

then he broght his photo album in and i was like what the fuk
no shit this fellas sat cuddling a bud like a baby! in a room full of plants from the little shop of horrors they were really stumpy with a fukin huge cola

wish i could track him down an get some tips off him

Beautiful PiCs bro, your plants look right on target for about 16 days. You proved that the SCROG Method of growing is the best way to grow and that will produce multiple buds sites. Damn, when I start this new job and get paid, I'm going to up-grade my grow cab into I alittle MINI SCROGER. 2 plants max inside maybe just 1. Keep Up the good work man, my buds are really frosty right now and the bud sites are still growing. If I had better lights, it would have been finished by now. The flowering is at day 50 right now, but I'm a very patient man. Keep those plants happy BubbyLove, if you show them love, they will grow with that love into the beautiful plants they are now :p .

thanks for the kind words fellas
ive been a bit off this last week and not spent much time with the ladys but ill post a few pics tonight when its lights on time so i get some with and without the light
faithless im am scared to move the budsites bcoz of streching but the scrogs covering nearly a 3x3 ft square under the light so i feel theyre all in the ideal area for light coverage just a little compact
blaq if you ve left your buds over 50 days they re bound to be a kickass smoke its been another week since your post have you harvested yet ???
dont forget to smoke a little damp sample and post the results

Lookin good man, you suck though for only having 28 days left after 16 days of flowering. I still have 21 days left, and I'm on day 35 :-p I can't wait to hear how this smokes, I'm interested in trying this strain myself.

Nice Grow, Bro.

:D

I recently signed up for this site and I just realized that my name is real close to yours... didn't mean to step on your toes. :o

I can't wait to see your ladies mature.

Come check out my log sometime: http://boards.cannabis.com/showthread.php?t=95268

Really nice man, :thumbsup: . Instead of having 1 or even 2 main colas per plant, you are going to have about 5 to 6 big fat colas per plant :p . You are doing a good job man, keep it up. You got about 4 more weeks to go man :jointsmile: . I haven't harvested yet guys, I think I might wait until Christmas to harvest. I flushed her last friday and she took it really well. I also cut some of the strings that were holding her down and some I put back. I checked the trichomes the other day and they were 20% clear/55%cloudy/25%amber. Looking really good so far :D . Keep Em Frosty Team Top44 :hippy: ...

Ahhh, very pretty girls. If I was a male cannabis plant, I'd be hitting on them.
Got myself a nice new samsung NV10 camera and some great pics, but need to get hold of USB cable to import them into the computer. Working so much right now, its some way down on the list of things to do, but will get around to it soon.

Looking very nice though, still need the trichs to get darker. I'm thinking harvest in 3-4 days, which will put my Top 44's at Top 52-53.

When is Buddy harvesting?

Nice. Hairier than mine got. I'm about 12 days ahead of you. Ripening of trichs took about 7-8 days longer than the 44 days for me.

They look good BuddyLove, :D . How much longer are you going to be pushing them? They look really frosty from the piCs you have up. If they don't get as fat as you wanted them to, you will still get a mean high with all that snow on the buds. Keep Em frosty bro :) ...

well i checked the thriks lastnight

69% clear 30% cloudy 1% amber most were starting to lean over so id say i could really harvest today
but 44 days is under perfect conditions and mines had 1 or 2 rough days

bugs,temps and christmas did the girls no favors

but

Sweet deal man, its still pretty fast. Mine are gonna be a full 63 days of flowering before I cut them, since we want to harvest all 4 plants at the same time and wouldn't mind some a little more couchlock than the rest, so we figure we'll get a mixture. Lookin forward to that smoke report.

:) They probably didn't go 44 days for any of us, but guys, it was a great journy for TeamTop44 or TeamTop54+days LOL. Maybe next time we can hit that 44 make and be blazin by day 60 when everyone else is still waiting. Keep Em growing BuddyL, those piCs u have look like frosty on a stick. might not be much but the high should last forever :jointsmile: ...

those buds look delicious!!! once again, I hope my ScroG looks that good when it comes time for me to harvest in 3 1/2 weeks, one question though, I was going to start adding molasses to my water similar to you giving them sugar, what do you think the problem with the sugar was?

Post some harvest pics, weight, etc. and happy smoking! :jointsmile: :pipe: :bonghit:

ok so three of the pics above are of my new girls ready to be moved into the flower room
heres the pics of the harvest i was gona post last night
i'll be starting a new thread today so i'll post a link when ive set it up
i cannot say for sure it was the sugar water that made the leaves crisp up in the last few days maybe i just drowned the poor buggers
enjoy the pics

this grow took 73 days from repotting my clones to trimmin em down

Nice Harvest BuddyL, Thats a lot of bud action for only 5 plants :D . How much do you think you got from each plant? That load should last you a long time, unless you have a whole lot of friends :D . You might be getting some new friends when the word spreads about your danky homegrown bud. Stay High bro :smokin: ...

last night was the smoke test me n as close pall tucked into a bag and sent a Q to the stig for a taster
results r good
smells skunky as
sweet taste (still a bit damp) but flavorfull
and the stone really creeps up on ya lasts for a while but is very moreish

blaq the stash will be gone tommorrow ill post the total weight later

cali it is to late to to force a rigid screen on that jungle of yours and it may be a little late in flower to start lsting a level canopy last time i tried training in flower the bitches just kept stretching and the budsites although plentyfull became very under developed and airy fuked 4 plants right up
id just try and get the very tall one down a couple of inch so as the light can be closer to the rest of the buds gudluk my friend

Nice job, .6 grams per watt sounds pretty sweet to me. I got just 2.5 oz out of my first grow with a 600watt hps and 3 plants. There were several mistakes made through out that grow though.

I think I will emulate your grow for my next set up. I need greater efficiency, otherwise its not worth paying the huge electricity bills.

01-27-2007, 07:49 PM
well it worked out well for me

eleccy £ 70

nutes and coco £ 70

12.6 x £ 120 - £160 = £1500 - £2000

thats only a value of the weed it go's without saying i'll smoke the dam lot :rastasmoke:
