I will be growing Hempy Style again. Also, I will be using the Rubbermaid Box for the first stage of this grow. Nutes are going to be Fox Farm: Grow Big Hydro, Tiger Bloom, Big Bloom, Open Seseme, Bestie Bloomz, and Cha Ching.

I will try to keep this log as detailed as possible for followers.....So here we go: I germed these seeds on Late Fri. Night Oct 17........Both Cracked by Sunday Morning......Then into jiffy pellet soaked in 1/2 strength Week 1 hydro nutes which consists of 1 tsp. grow big, and 2 tsp of big bloom per gallon.

Both Made it above ground by monday, but by accident i left the dome off on monday and tuesday the smaller of the 2 seedling was completely drooped over because the pellet got to dry(i thought she was a goner for sure).......watered them again with plain tap water ph around 7.8.......weds. the almost dead seedling was back to standing by herself......Thursday.....they both got transplanted into Hempy Coffee Containers.........and got wk1 nutes which consists of 1 tsp grow big, 2 tsp big bloom......They get feed every day......Heres some pics:

Right on killlla!!! Way to keep on keepin' on bruddah... Loking forward to seeing whatcha do with these little babies!!!!
You KNOW I'm subscribed my friend!!

Yeeha,come on with it killa!!!
I like the look of those PowerPlant type colas on the CH9 GreenBud!!!Grabbing a seat...Subscribed...
:420thought:

PS-Sorry to hear about the horse shit you went through last week...I'm hearing these storys more often and it really sux...Why can't these lowlifes read a book and get their own hands dirty instead of stealing???:mad:

wow sorry you had a bad week. thanks for all your grow info. hope it gets better, i'll definately be watching and learning. my seedlings that I inhereted are doing okay. I will post some pics today

Well another week has passed and i know im getting boring but nothing has really changed in my grows.....

So far, the plants have been taken about 4-5 oz. of nutes per day. Both plants are showing Indica Dominate Genes at the moment.....they took very well to the nutes last week..The large plant is on her 5 node and is starting internode development and the small plant is on her 4 node and just showing the internode leaves...showing no signs of burn or deformity. The small plant is still a runt......she is growing about 4 days behind the large plant and about 30% less mass.....i really dont care about it....i kinda hope she stays this way because she will be an ideal canidate for the micro grow portion of this grow!

The plants will get a new nute formula this week. The nute formula comes directly from Fox Farms Website..im using nutes for hydro week 2.....It will consist of 2 tsp. of Grow Big hydro, 1 Tbsn. of Big Bloom.....800-900 PPM/.05 conversion meter. PH around 5.8-5.9. From past grows id imagine around day 10 the plants will need more nutes volume......this will increase from about 4-5 oz to about 1/6 of a gallon per plant.

Heres some pics:

Hell yeah killa... I'm watchin bro! I'm torn... Can't decide whether I wanna try out the Green Bud beans or the Peru... Might just have to do one of each! Hahahaha :thumbsup:

I sent ya a rep for some good karma on this grow... I know you're gonna ROCK the GB!

Peace my good friend! :hippy::rastasmoke:

Nice cant wait to follow this log ... You have inspired me to use hempy next grow ...

looking good followed your last one very good results.. you inspired me to try hempy cause soil has been pissin me off (gnats! grr) and i gotta say i am amazed at how well the hempys work

hey killa, i'm new to hempy buckets; but if you were to have 1 gallon buckets and were using lucas formula, would you just mix the gallon mixture with the formula and then feed til 10% runoff?

Do you use nutes every watering? HOw often do you water?

also seen your other grows very nice.

Yes.....scrilladilla.....i would just mix your nutes by the gallon......and feed until 10% runoff.......i feed them nutes every watering........and the watering schedule i use is for the first 3 wks i feed daily....then i reduce the feedings to every other day.

come on killa you gotta get this thread going like your last one. I keep checking back and no updates. I suppose there may not be much going on with your grow. Anyways curious to see if anything has changed, please post if you got the time.

Green,you're not gonna believe this...Killa's GreenBud punched their roots through their hempys,went walkin' down the street to the pub and grabbed stools on either side of killa...The one on the left called me and said"I can't get him outta here right now,but he'll be up-dating the log and adding pics soon",lol...

Hope your walkin' in high cotton and chillin' like ice-water killa!!!:stoned::smokin::rastasmoke:

Funny DT.....but ure right.....its update time!

Everything is well.....the plants are getting big.....no smell yet but the leaves are huge....I will be changing the nutes again today.......3 tsp of Grow big Hydro by itself...this is the only week i do not run big bloom in my nute recipes...somewhere around 800-900 ppm/.5 conv......the ph is around 5.9...

Thanks for all the compliments....they are always appreciated!

Now for the pics:

I really appreciate it guys....honestly.....it feels sooooo good to have my HG brothers around here......this place is really starting to feel like home! :thumbsup:

killa12345, it's been a long time since I've been in your grow. I'm glad to see your plants are kicking serious ass, as with your past grows. You have a nute system really dialed in with those hempy buckets, and it looks like your choice of strains is really proving true. I wish you continued success with this grow and in life.

Be good out there, my friend! My best to you and your family!

Jakezking....nice to have you back around here......was missing ya bro....hope everything is well with you and yours!

Update Time!

Well the plants are getting bigger and bigger by the day.....so much so that they hit the lights for a day.......I know this always happens with me....

The plants got their first reduced watering on thursday....now the plants will be feed every other day from now till the end of the grow! They seem to like all the nutes i can give them....this week the nute schedule will consist of tsp. of grow big hydro, 1 tbsn. of Big bloom, 1/4 teaspoon of open seseme....1100-1150 ppm/.05 conv. .....5.8-5.9 ph.

Each plant is now getting around 1/3 gallon per feeding....nutes every feeding!

From past experiences...as soon as i feed them the open seseme....it throws them into preflowering....even though they are fem seeds.....im getting ready for the process of flipping the lights.....at this point im probably gonna clone of the large plant because she has about 12-18 clone sites ready as of today.....the small plant just wouldnt give me enough clones for second part of this grow......so heres the future schedule.....veg for another week.....take as many clones of the large plant as possible for sog micro grow....the small plant ill probably veg for another 2 weeks....then flip the lights...

Enjoy the pics:

HOLY F@!$%# TIGHT INTERNODES!! lol
They're looking splendiferous bruddah.
Keep 'em comin!!

Boy those looks great, Man! :rastasmoke:

I'm amazed by the speed of this grow killa...Awesome show bro...C'mon with it...:stoned::smokin:

PS-Nice avatar but ya gotta promise some doggy pics at least once in a while friend!!!:)

edub.....if you look at my last post the receipe.......all that goes into one gallon of water.....i first add the grow big....shake the water....then add big bloom....shake....then the open seseme....then shake....ph up.....shake.....check....shake....ph up.....shake.....check......

U get the picture...

thank you for your reply your plants are awsome. keep up the good work

geez my clones are about 21 days from root and dont look nearly that big... although im only using 16 Oz hempy beer cups do you think this is the problem? ALso i dont have a pH pen yet (should be here monday) and I think the pH been quite high. I have one of those pH testers for fish tank where you take 5mL of water and drop 2 drips into it and shake and compare to chart but i have feeling this is very inaccurate so im looking forward to my pen!

how big are the containers you use?

I think the 16oz cups are fine.....i just ran clones in 32 oz gatorade bottles(cut down to about 24 oz and only filled with about 20oz of medium) with a one week veg...and by the end they were no where close 2 being rootbound.....I use the same kind of ph tester with the drops.....seems accurate enough for me.....i bought mine at wal mart for $5(i am investing in a pen soon, but the drops have got me by for a year now!).......and the containers i use are around 3 1/2 liters recycled coffee tins. Thanks for stopping by and feel free to ask as many questions as you would like! :thumbsup:

Well guys.....first off to aplogize for not chatting over the past 2 or so weeks...ill visit your logs soon......once again work is killing me.....end of the year....trying to make the books look good... 14+ hour days, 6 days a week, you get the picture....... but back to the grow.

Today i woke up and decided to clone.....i first set up the box for the clone grow to find out that there is no way 20+ clones will fit in there with gatorade bottles.....so id figure ill reduce the number.....i figure i can fit 9-16 clones comforably....so thats what i did.....i took 16 cuts....which was the entire small plant......so now i have 1 large plant which will be flowered tomorrow.....that will be getting a different nute receipe consisting of 2 tsp of tiger bloom, 1 tbsn of big bloom, and 1/4 tsp of open seseme...

Heres what the box looked like this morning:

This is what the plant looked like before i raped it for clones....a total of 16!

Plant that has been thrown away(after being raped for clones)!

http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/k...d/DSC01731.jpg

Way i make clones:

I make cuts with a normal cheap sissor which i bought at Wal Mart......I dip the cuts in Olivia Cloning Gel.....i soak the jiffy pellets in half strenght Fox Farm Nutes which the feeding schedule comes from their web site.(mixture for clones and seeds 1/2 tsp of grow big, 1 tsp of big bloom).....i spray them once or twice a day with 7.0 phed water....and i leave the dome off each day starting on day 3, and i start by removing the dome for about 20 min on day 3 then hopefully 1-2 hrs by day 7 and by day 10-11 usually they will be able to deal with the reduced humidity and no dome. I can usually see roots on day 7-9.

Killa they look amazing bruddah, and you make cloning look easy!
Definitely an honor to be in the presence of the experts. :D
Keep up the good work my friend :)

Dooobster.......really there is nothing to it.....i think once you find your system.....it just like making sure the checklist is checked twoce.....im sure you will soon take the plunge into cloning.......and im no expert.......i just found out what works for me....in my envoirnment....and i just repeat!

Thanks DT and Dooob for continuing to comment.....sometimes i feel like ure the only two watching but then i see the views and i realize that some people just dont comment all the time!

Well.....

I went away for thanksgiving.....sh*t it was cold...well not really around 30F....but us southerns especially me.....i rarely see the temps drop below 70F.

I left for 5 days....i left a person which i felt confident could keep my babies alive.....got back and they all look perfect...

This is the 7 day of bloom.....they will get the same nutes as last week.....2tsp of Tiger Bloom, 1 tbsn of Big Bloom, 1/4 tsp of open seseme.....

The large plant is getting big....nice smell, but isnt showing one preflower yet....none....not really worried im sure they will be here any day.

The clones are 7 days old since getting cut...they are looking good and i expect to see roots any day now!

Enjoy the pics!

Damnnnnnnnnnnnn killa... They do look perfect.
Lovin the symmetrical canopy & GOOD GOD @ the tight internodes!!
You've definitely got your system dialed in bro...
Keep 'em comin!! :D
Peace!

Looking good bro.. I got a question I posted a thread but figured i'd ask a hempy pro. So Ive been trying to get my nute formula down (using the formula on the nutes wasnt working at all burning or deficient or something but now that i changed it starting to look better.) Also I got my pH pen so what i was feeding thinking it was 5.8ish using the fish tester was actually a 4.0-5.0! Ive been putting nutes in 5.7 but they come out about 4.7 what does this mean nutrient buildup or something? I know you use nutrients every time but would a flush benefit in my case? or shoudl I just leave it and see if the runoff eventually raises?

blood brother....man i dont know where to start....here goes....i read you thread, and i dont think its gonna be hard to figure this out!

Man first i think you should tell me about the setup.....really the type of nutes? frequency of feeding? AND MOST IMPORTANT.....How much runoff do you get before you stop feeding....I think there might be a little nute build up but ive never had them....and all i do is follow hempy's origanal thread almost to a tee.....just different nute...Ie heard some crazy ph number from runoff soooo....this might not be so bad....please feel free to post as much info on this thread as you wish...even some pics might help...

what week are you in...man there are so many factor in this....and i have so little of the picture to work!.....Please post asap so this problem doesnt get any worse! peace killa
