tahoe og and blueberry kush grow log

ok. so ive been at this for 7 years. ive dealt with it all. mites. pm. temps. humidity. ect. i still learn shit every day. i worked in a hydro store for 3 years. ive built countless rooms. i feel im pretty much dialed in nowadays.. ive gone from 1 plant, to alot more than that. and back down to a reasonable size grow the past few years. ive gone back and forth from soil to hydro to 1 run of dwc, witch was awesome, but impractical for what i wanted to do at the time. this is my formula ive developed thru all i have encountered, its what im running now, and its what i feel is hands down the best setup for the size.

ok. so essentially, ive broken it down to a 4x4 tray x2 setup that can be duplicated as space allows. its what i suggested to people when i worked in the store, i have built it a few times for people, and i am getting the opportunity to do it exactly like this for the first time. 2 count 4x4 trays, 9 count ladies per tray, 5gal pots, coir coco medium, 2count 8 inch "xxl ocho" hoods, 8 inch inline fan cooling both lights, with a can 100 filter. so, the air gets pulled thru the filter, thru both lights, thru the fan and out the god damn window. trays in a 4x8x8 tent passive air intake. air conditioner and dehumidifier both with power loss auto start capability for a controller if you use one. also, the 20# co2 tank sits outside the tent. 45 gal reservoir as well. for lights, i like the "phantom" hydrofarm 1000 watt switchable digital dimmable ballasts. 60 % 75% and "110%". there beast. eyehortalux 1k super blue enhanced bulbs. this setup can be reduced to 1 single 4x4 with 6 or 9 plants, in a 4x4 tent. i have a 18 inch oscillating fixed on opposite side of tent of can filter. blowing towards it.

i root in rapid rooter plugs, then into 1 gal pots, veg under hydrofarm t5 4 bulb 4ft. x2. i supercrop at 14 inches tall for most strains, transfer to 5 gal pots a week later and move to tent to begin flowering upon height/health req. usually 2 weeks under the hps b4 flowering. usually supercrop once more in the 5 gals. 8in trellis netting at week 1 of flower and at week 3 of flower. ties easily to the poles in 4 corners of tent and center polls. about a foot and a half apart. i use the 110 % setting upon 12/12 switch, the 60% during the veg. i can get lights super close with the 8 inch cooling at 60 percent. no stretch. from there, its a basic 8 week flower plus 1 week flush. so, 9 total with flush. never gone past 9 weeks.

as for nutes. ive tried so many variations. this is my "hero blend" im not sure what is avail in your local store, but everything i use can be purchased online. for veg, i use the general hydroponics a,b,c, its there baselines,(mirco, gro, and bloom). great white, h&g roots accelerator, superthrive, and botanicare calmag. i also run botanicare sweet raw the entire grow for my great white to munch on. also i use botanicare silica blast through the grow. voodoo juice also, in intervals.

onto flowering, i push my ladies pretty hard i guess. im normally growing sfv og or tahoe og, and they can take pretty much whatever i throw at em.
so, the general hydroponics A,B,and C continue, per advised dose, as well as the great white, roots accelerator, and superthrive. calmag always, and silica blast too. no more voodoo juice. i start up botanicare hydroplex at day one. at week 3 i cut out the great white, roots excelerator, and silica blast gets cut into a quarter strength. sweet gets cut to quarter strength and i start to ad on the rest. from week 4 on, its as follows, the A,B and C, hydroplex, bud candy,
h&g bud xcell, calmag, and single packet h&g shooting powder per 25 gal. at week 6 i jump to 2 packets shooting powder per 25 gal. and get my ppms past 1900. BEAST!!! by week 6 i start using "gravity" also. its a bud hardener. a little bit goes along way. week 8 i cut everything and use a product called final flush.
1 week or 3 waterings. and they get the chop. i 24 hour dark em last day, and drop the temp as much as possible. 60 is perfect. stun em. i can get over 1gram a watt this way. pretty much any strain, consistently. i run my temps at around 82.. sometimes up to 85. the co2 mixed with high temps is crazy. just explosive growth. huge colas. dense as can be. and soooo resonated.

i cure in a 4x4 tent at 65 degrees 35 percent humidity, in total darkness with a small fan circulating air not directly onto flowers. i burp the tent 4 times a day.
into jars to cure. i use my nose alot in this process. cant really explain.

some random stuff i do is i spray my girls thrue week 2 of flower with neem oil/bio degradable dishsoap. about once a week. from veg till week 2. an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.. i also keep 2 hotshot pest strips in the room. untill week 4 of flower. those things are so clutch. a little dangerous to be around for 6 hours or more a day, but no bugs, ever. period. and i know it sounds weird, but i play em classical music. on a small clock radio. haha im dead serious. the co2 has shown me the biggest improvement in my game. shooting powder also. between the 2 i feel like i doubled my yields.

right now im at 36 days flower, with the same setup minus the tent. i have 12 tahoe og and 10 blueberry going. my grow is legal in my state, where i am a patient. its for me, my wife, my father, and a good friend with tremendous pain issues(3 vertebra removed from spine from injuries) tahoe by day, blueberry by night.

i cant figure out how to post a picture directly into this log, so someone plz help me. i have a ton and have been meaning to start a log..
and if you have suggestions or questions plz tell mee. i love helping.

jesus this took forever to write. i literally ate dinner and played mw3 for an hour half way thru.

thanks, ciao,
