1 Frostbite
2 NL#5
3 Grandaddy Purple
4#7 wich is Big blue BCSC wich is NL#5x Blueberry then I crossed selected mom with Grimm C99, My best yielder but the high freaks me out
5 Mendo purps, finally got a good mom
6 Skywalker, got a huge yielding mom from dutch passion
I got a seed library of about 1000 seeds and probably 200 strains of wich about 20 are crosses I made.I have been buying and collecting seeds for about 12 years now and all are kepy in a sealed light proof jug in the fridge. My 12 year old seeds still sprout 90% of the time.
I got a huge problem though, I cant decide what to try next, its been killing me trying to choose.
Wish we had that problem shaggy.. :D Amazing plants there! You've given me shit tons of ideas for my upcoming grow.. I can't seem to stay outta this thread.. Again thats freakin awesome!!!!!!!!!!
Some of you need to check your private messages.
Shaggy, great looking plants.
The girls are flushing right now on PH 5.8 20PPM water. Heres a macro shot, Sorry but its the best I can do at the moment, Peace!
my god that's beautiful. I just want to lick the trich's off of that thing.Quote:

Well, the results are in. I had horrible thrips damage to the plants and there were dead little buds all over in the bottoms of the plants. I got 3808 grams of super clean sticky buds and feel that was pretty good considering that the pile of untrimmable branshes filled a fifty gallon hefty bag.so thats 2.125 pounds per 40 inch tall, 7 foot wide plant under 5600 watts wich gives me .68 grams per watt. I find that getting the one gram per watt is possible in this system, I have done it about 2 out of 3 times but, if anything goes south, bugs, heat stress, root stress, overfeeding, the one gram per watt goes south as well. .60 is the sorst I have ever done and 1.04 is the best. I am going to start another grow report within this thread in the next week or so. I am goibg to be growing a different strain of my own creation in this room and in a 50x50 inch hydrohut with 600 watt metle halide and a 600 watt HPS in cooltubes connected together hanging vertical in the middle 4 plants in the same pattern and these will be a test grow of the GRANDADDY PURPLE for the purpose of filling my large area with it next time if yields feel right. I got this cutting a while ago and have never smoked anything that tatste even close. it taste like grape koolaide and the high is my altime favorite PERIOD, Peace Shaggy.
here are a couple pic of the GRANDADDY BUD PURPLE . You probably cant see any purple but it is there. the room was quite warm and we still got nice purples. It was only one plant about 20 inches tall in coco husk and perlite, we got 4 ounces off it so I am hping for a good yield off the test grow. The test grow plants will be in 5 gallon bubbles, 4 pants in a 4x4foot room with the light hanging in the middle. if I can get 6 ounces or more from each plat at that size They will get a full run under the big lights
:thumbsup:
Great Job!!! I was wondering if you noticed any ill effects from using the UV sterilizer?? I'm planning to install one in my recirculating system but I read somewhere that it may cause the iron to fall out of suspension. I've been battling with an algae problem in my resorvoir and I'm thinking that the UV filter will help out tremendously. Great job once again, I'm pretty envious of your mom selection. Oh yeah any more info on those cheaper co2 controllers....?
Never had any problems at al, I worried about that to after reading about it but it didnt happen to me. i dont use it anymore. Get some Pythoff by Flairiform and it will keep your nutes near sterile and say goodbye to root problems forever, I swear by this stuff!Quote:

Helluva job!:thumbsup:
Awesome methods, humble approach, appreciation given, lots of good karma in here, it's no wonder your plants yield this much to you.:thumbsup:
When I read this, I seriously got dizzy. My head started swimming, I almost fell off my chair, and I literally laughed out loud, that kind of laugh where you just don't know what to do with yourself, the kinda crazy laugh. I don't even know what to think.Quote:

FOR THOSE WHO DONT WISH TO READ BACK A FEW PAGES YOU ARE LOOKING AT 4 PLANTS IN A 10.5X10.5 ROOM, THEY WILL AND HAVE COMPLETELY FILLED THE ROOM AND WILL PUT OUT 10LBS OF TRIMMED BUD. IF YOU DONT BELIEVE ITS POSSIBLE READ THE ENTIRE THREAD AND BUILDD A ROOM LIKE THIS AND YOU WILL SEE THE LIGHT. WITH 2 MEDICAL CARDS IN THE HOUSE WE CAN LEGALLY GROW 12 PLANTS, IMAGINE. I CAN BARELY SACRIFICE ENOUGH ROOM FOR 4 PLANTS. STAY TUNED FOR WEEKLY PHOTOS AND WATCH THE BUDS GROW AS BIG AS 2 LITRE POP BOTTLES. THANX TO ALL FOR THE GREAT KARMA. IF ANYONE NEEDS ANY HELP PUTTING A SYSTEM LIKE THIS TOGETHER JUST ASK AND I WILL DO WHAT I CAN FROM HERE, PEACE AND POT! SHAGGY
am I seeing things or is that an ass load of buds.
so the king of growing is agen wit a nother huge ass grow..
its cool that U wanted to grow more but didn't U yield like around a years worth of weed last time.
Ur problying doing it for the love of growing. I can't growing my MM also. cuz now my back alwase feels better after tokeing it.
laters.:thumbsup:
I ment to say: I can't quit growing my MM also. cuz now my back alwase feels better after tokeing it.
Here are the 4 girls at 7 weeks 3 days of 12/12. they have about 2 weeks to go and have completely overgrown my 10.5x10.5 foot room, I cant even crawl unders these monsters. I am going to start the flush in two days. This is the first time I have grown this strain, My #7 with the sweetwater air diffusers in the buckets, they have never grown this big with the other air stones. I tripped a breaker in the house for my bath and hallway and the panel is in the back of the grow room and its not getting switched back on until they are cut. The buckets are a good 16 inches tall and the plants have swallowed them and the bottom branches are on the floor, its ridiculous! Sweetwater stones ROCK, the Alita air pumps kick ass as well. The Supernatural Bud Blaster is freaking me out, this is bad ass stuff here, Shaggy
pix please?
Here they are at 7 weeks 3 days of 12/12. They have about 2 weeks left. The flush will start in two days. To date these are the biggest yet, it is impossible to get into the room, you can crawl under at all, the bottom branches have grown down the sides of the 20 gallon buckets and across the floor. SUPERNATURAL BUD BLASTER KICKS ASS!!!!!!!!!, SHAGGY

YUP
that must take FOREVER to trim...
Well done.
Trimming is easy with this strain, but yes its a PITA. Thanx for the comment, Shaggy
OH. My.God. Becky... i wish i was your neibhor...
who ever thought a pothead could walk amongst gods...
no. you ARE a god.
when you die and go into the afterlife, they WILL have a nice big room waiting for you to grow in.
Wow, just amazing!
Shaggy, im new to these boards and id like to introduce my self. My name is Paul and im about a week or so away from starting my very first grow! Im using a 250w hps/mh in a small tent, growing a few lowryders/ww mix. Maybe if im lucky a true professional like you will drop buy my thread/log and give me some good advice :thumbsup:
And for the plants, im stunned.. I know that all that smoke is going toward personal use only too ;):thumbsup::rastasmoke:
believe me me and my buds can smoke this all day.I wold be happy to visit your thread and help however I can. Seems all is GREAT! my buds are taking on a lavender purple color in 85 Deg min temps. Maybe after all the tweaking of the system all is finally perfect and this strain is showing true in all her glory. Much Different then my Grandaddy purple, these buds are turning purple from ther inside out instead of the outside in , wow its pretty, Thans to all for your commemnts, dont forget you can do this to, I am no miracle worker, I just read, and read, and read for years until I got here. You have the luxury of just copying what took me years to figure out and I will share it with everyone, peace and pot, Shaggy
Shaggy your the man:stoned::rastasmoke::rasta::hippy:
The verdict is in, total yield is 4612 grams and a pile of tiny unworthy to trim buds weighing 260 grams with trimmings of bubble hash material weighing 652 grams. So total bud yield was .82 grams per watt. I read that 1 gram per watt every 30 days is the goal, I dont believe thats possible. If anyone knows how to do it let me know. I got 10.29 LBS off 4 plants and I cannot expect much more I am happy!
SIMPLY LEGENDARY
i sat at my computer in pure amazement.
correction i still am in amazement!
AAAAAAUUUUUUHHHHH????,,,,,,,SSSSSSSSSWWWWWWWIINNNG GGGGGG!!!!!!!!
Awesome Bud's!!!!!!,,,,,,,,I Would Say 10+lbs. From 4-Plant's,,,,,Damn Good In My Book!!!!!,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Amazing Plant's,,,,,,,,Congrat's On The Great Grow & Harvest!!!!!,,,,,,,,,& Happy Smoke'n!!!!!:D:stoned::pimp::smokin:
Thanks for thr props people! Very appreciated. I am going to be adding to the room in the next few months 3 more buckets for 7 plants. will start the next grow in a month or less. The next strain is not yet known, I have a killer skywalker cutting that yielded one pound in a 4x8 room with three other plants in it. It out grew them and squished the others to the bottom and took over, the plant was completely abused, only one nute change the whole cyle, no ph adjustments, I let the res run dry, filled it halfway, all the way whatever my lazy ass did when I felt like it and that was only when impending doom was near. This cutting is currently growing outside and was put out the 2nd week of july and is now 9 feet high and 8 feet wide, its a monster. The hard decision is that the grandady purple cut I have is absolutely the finest, tastiest, best smelling bad ass ganga i have ever smoked and I want try her in the big room. I have one of her cuts outside to and its only 4 feet tall but wow! thats all I can say, her outdoor yield will probably determine wether she sees the big buckets or not. Oh yeah she stinks so bad i dont know if I want to risk getting sick of that smell, we will see and i will keep you all posted, Shaggy
Shaggy, I just found this thread after months of being a member of c-dot and many more lurking...
I'm Blown away,I read every page and I knew this was possible...I've had the idea to grow in huge recirculating bubblers to grow trees and have been laughed at by many local growers who say 2 zips per plant indoors is the most I'll get. I know from experience in ebb n flow I can get more that that.
Are all of the plants you grow in the 20 gal bubblers from beans or are any from clone stock. If any are clones what is the biggest clone you've grown in the big bubblers.
I know what you mean about the GDP I've grown this strain and would love to know how big their clones will get in the big system...
I'm a believer in vertical lighting now if I wasn't before. Have you grown in these 20 gal buckets w/ overhead lighting in the past and found the vert to be optimal...sorry for all the ?'s
later, and much props Shaggy
D:S5:
All the plants atre grown from clone, not seed. they are put in there as soon as their roots start coming out of the bottom of 4 inch rockwool cubes, then ther are placed in the net 6 inch net pots and toppoed off with expanded clay pellets too fill the pot al the way. Then the full 5600 watts is turned on and they go into as tate of shock for about a week or so. Then they take off and when they are are about 30 inches wide and 30 inches tall they get 12 hours off darkeness, oy yeah vegging takes place under 24 hour light. 3 weeks later they are 8 feet wide and about 48 inches tall, the rest is history because in my opinion theres no other way to get the yield of theses buckets. I have never tried it with ovehead lighting as I see absolutely no point, why would I, if you have ever tried veritcal lighting like this you will undesrtand why theres no point. You can get 2-3 pounds per plant with this depending on the strain, the worst I ever got was 3/4 pound off one that got horrible root rot and died before I got the sweetwater air stones and the Pythoff. No it rocks, ShaggyQuote:
