Stinky's Crash Course in "nOOb Hydro"... Welcome to the Darkside
Mastergrown Seeds was authorized to do a run of Bogglegum F2s which were sold on seedbay last year, but that is the only authorized BOG stuff I'm personally aware of- not to say it doesn't exist- I got my BOG stuff at Sacred Seed but they don't ship, I had to drive to Toronto from Massachusetts... hahaha quite a nice vacation actually; I went via Madison WI and Escanaba (?) ON... on the Ninja. Boy, was my ass ever sore after that one!
Well I also have an update on the system. I TOTALLY mangled the roots putting the plants in there and after a day or so they all looked dead or very nearly so, but as long as there's a green growing tip I don't consider a plant a loss... so I left them. The first to make a full recovery was a unknown cross of two unknown plants from a BOG mix pack. IT has since turned into a volleyball-sized globe of greenery. The others don't look so hot still but are STILL ALIVE!!! And all but one appear to have recovered.
I also switched to the Canna Aqua a+b, since it's buffered better fro hydro, and the cornucopia seems beautifully suited to soil. I'm a lazy bum and finally got around to my first res change this morning. lol.
I just can't believe the hardiness of this plant. My temps are in the 90s, I bused the clones transplanting them, tortured them with wild pH fluctuations, and they are STILL hanging on!
Oh and the specific BOG stuff I hold at the moment is:
-Bogglegum (male)
-SourBubble (both male and female)
-Unknown bushy mix female
-A couple crosses
-Black Indica (male and unsexed) which is actually Plan B gear but Bushy's got a hand in that project and the BI really falls in line wiht the hardiness and noob-resistance of his older work.
If anyone is growing his stuff and selling unauthorized seeds, I'd post about it over at ICMag. The guy deserves more respect than that!stinkyattic Reviewed by stinkyattic on . Stinky's Crash Course in "nOOb Hydro"... Welcome to the Darkside Hey all, can I start by saying for the record that I am a COMPOST grower- HAHAHA- just in case there was any confusion... :jointsmile: I'm setting up another room in my house to run hydro for the winter because I really don't have a good place to store soil that doesn't freeze, and disposing of used dirt in a place that gets SNOWFALL is just ASKING for trouble... So this is going to be set up as an example of what I consider to be a very VERY basic beginner hydro system, one which anyone Rating: 5
