5*White Widow feminized. Coco.

Thanks Pain.
Well I am a cat person for sure. I see it as impossible to have a home ever without a cat in it.
The one on my avatar is not mine but I do have two, Pepsi and Sprite. I'll post a picture of them some time. <3

hey puffzter just droppin by on your log, good work on those buds mate, how long away from harvesting are you now?

Last in this post is a link to an updated detailed grow log. Excel.

BDDGrow:
This is day 33 since I flipped to 12/12 so 3-4 weeks I'd say. But I won't let anything but the actual state of the plants decide when I harvest so we'll see. I rather keep them a week or two extra than harvest early after all this work. ;)


Also, I have choosen my future genetics today. The WW plant 4 will be grandmother of my White Widows from now on. Her clones are being made into mother plants as we speak.

Pro's of plant 4: Earliest to flower. By far biggest flowers. Very good resin production. Her daughters will produce damn fine colas as well as good weed I am sure.

Con's: Way too stretchy to grow untrained indoors but from now on it will be clone SoGs so I think I can handle it.

The remaining clones were :sorry1: thrown today. That felt bad but what to do? Now I have 3 plants in my nursery.
101-0808 : Hindu Kush being trained into mother plant. Not sex coded yet and I only suspect it is a female right now. A week back a male showed up and this one put in the ground at same time as that one haven't shown sex so it should be female. Time will tell for sure.
004-002-0808-F : Clone of plant 4 WW. Being trained into a mother.
004-002-001-0809-F: Clone of the WW above. Also being trained into a mother.

Codes are explained in the Excel sheets but roughly first cluster is strain and serial number. Following clusters are for generations of clones. Last numerical cluster is yymm (year/month) they were started and last letter sex. Think that system will be ok. Thought it out to be able to follow everything I grow in the future back to original seed. The excel sheet has a history section were info about every individual is put in. So in 3 years I can come back and see what happened to the genetics over generations of cloning.
Dunno if I will but IF I still grow it will be valuable informaton.

Sorry, I can access that link, Puff.

Same Shovel, dunno what's wrong. However, copy the link as text and paste it into your browser and it works.

I just started my first coco grow myself. I'm treating it like hydro and watering with ph 5.9-6.0 water. Can you tell me what PH you used to water your plants?

I'll be hand watering through veg and setting up a home made drip ring system for flowering set up on a timer to water about 2-3 times a day. Just to keep it nice and evenly moist with a flush every 4-5 weeks.

Let me know about the PH, I would greatly appreciate it. I think I'm doing everything right so far and just want to see what you did since your plants grew so healthy looking.

I keep pH 5.5-5.7
And yes you do right by treating your coco grow as a hydro because that is what it is.
Good luck m8 and thanks for the kind words.

Day 36 bloom.
Now its time to nuke these babies.
The plan is to go extremelly hard on nutes for about two weeks now. In 6-7 days I will flush them and directly renute the coco with the same strong nute mix. The flush is to get rid of the saltbuild up that is ineviteble (spelling) with this hard nuking.
After this period I will go down to 1300-1400ppm again until they are very close to ready (should be about a week at 1300-1400) for harvest and then flush them the last 3-4 days and also keep them in darkness the last 36 hours to degrade some chlorophyll.
I will harvest at 50-80% amber.

Now, the strength I uped to today is a stunning 1850ppm above tapwater. A total of 2100ppm!
I have had them on 1600 above tapwater (total 1850) before with no signs of overnuting so we'll see how this goes. If its too hard I go down a tad but they will get it hard for two weeks now.
Also raised the pH to 5.8 to give them better access to the nutes. Gonna be interesting to see if they are smoking tomorrow at lights on, hehe...

Very impressive!!! I have been reading through your log and it is really motivating me to get one of those growing tents. Seems to definitely be worth the investment. Where'd you get yours??

My goodness, you have really researched and figured this out. I have read coco will increase the effectiveness of nutes! But followed with the flushing, freq. sounds like a good plan and will be very interesting! I think people in some other logs would mail you coco! lol

I am so impressed with all you have done with such little time! IMPRESSED!! I can't rep again, but gonna try!:thumbsup: :jointsmile: pr

I know you studied this all extensively (as I recall your thread and do not re-read each time-this time, but look a pix): And over 3 mos. Was it 24/7 study? I've been reading, etc and have still yet to get (weather permiting) the balls you got! Or it is brains, sorry! Do you mind telling me what all you studied? I think I need to study same way! And just get top grade for my area female seeds and go for it. Plus a few strays from some friends for special need buds! If I study as well and hard as you--it should be just fine!!:D thanz for the learning!!! U iz :cool:
