Flowering 2 Master Kush

[Weedhound]

Wow....you aren't one for talking things out are you? :S2: You're a hard one to love Opie......

BUT I DO SO WHAT THE HELL RIGHT?

I have SEEDS....i'm so happy about that I could split!! I've been watching her.....seeing the progression of slower and slower draining......but I just COULDN'T do it so the seeds ROCKED!! :thumbsup: I'd actually been wondering if a hammer and some knitting needles or some thing could put a few drain holes down in her "rootball" if that's what you want to call it. Looking at it now......I seriously doubt it would have worked. :wtf:

Hey Sis .
Glad the recirc. is working out for you . It was the biggest improvement I made to my system yet . Makes it almost manageable .

Here's pics. of the Snl x Nev. Haze you asked for from the last grow . We've got about 6-7 ounces left now . :stoned:

Talk more tomorrow when I have some time .
Peace

WH,
I'm not sure if you've said already, but what was that medium for kushette, and have you used it before? It looks like common aquarium gravel. I know you probably want closure and want to move on. I was just curious. I am very glad for you about the seeds. Sounds very near to what just happened to me with my BBxNL. I've never got seeds in a grow before, but this time in 6 plants I had 8 seeds, and I'm very happy about it. I was trying to revert a mom of those seeds to veg, and until a couple days ago I had serious doubts about her return. Her sister was not as lucky. http://boards.cannabis.com/basic-gro...flowering.html

Happy day, both you and I. Similar stuff, from forces on high.

xcrispi,
Fine job I must say there ol' chap. Very good work. I want to pack my cereal bowl and live in your buds.

I read that thread of yours opie. Glad you got some seeds out of the one you wanted as well. That could NOT have happened better imo.

Higromite. Here is what I use as a medium. I've tried hydroton and just had WAY too many issues with it and hydrotons' light weight aside......it caused MANY more problems than it solved.

The only real issue I have with the higromite is its weight.....it weighs like a bucketful of....ROCKS; go figure. Other than that I've found it to be a great medium and the BUTTLOAD of silica in it really seems to help my plants stay healthier and not suffer as many problems with fert build-up as I seemed to deal with when using hydroton either.

While the higromite IS reusable it's just as hard to pick out from that mess of roots as hydroton would be so I end up using new each time these days.

Btw....both higromite and hydroton are my hydro store owner's top choices for mediums used for a waterfarm.

Edit: One other thing I have to say is a disadvantage to using higromite....algae LOVES it and will grow like mad ion it ANYWHERE it can. That was the only other thing I liked about hydroton..(besides how light it was) was that algae really didn't grow well on it at all. :thumbsup:

Too late Opie I've already sold the house and built a tree house in Xcrispi's buds.

You do give a noob a target to aim for with those DWC systems. Is there one around that would fit conveniently in a 1.2m x 1.2m floorspace. Had a look on ebay but the only recirc system I saw was for six buckets & I think the cramp would outweigh any advantage of getting each plant into its own bucket.

Xcrispi that pic 3 has some excellent colour in it. What strain is that?

Thanx - Jack - Opie for kind words -n- Karma .
It's all the same stuff "Sour Northernlights x Nevilles Haze" . It came from the Female Seed Co. X-line . Funky colors happening are me trying to fight hps glare via the cameras filter options .

Weedhound - I think we let these go 10 - 11 weeks and prob. coulda gone a week or so more . Your plants are gonna love you for the .3 - .4 swing verses a full point each day .

I often thought about how close my plants were to nute lock out and the stress of being a cool ph 1 day -n- on the verg of nute lock out the next over -n- over -n- over = nasty vicious cycle w/o the system recirculating .

Jack - About systems = I'd give Image reapers log a look man . He can fit 1 dwc monster in his cab. w/ a 400 hps and it's even a tight fit . Texas Hydro has a nice cheap 5 gal. bucket like the ones I run turn key for like $40.00 .

A cpl. more pics of SNL x Nevilles Haze .
Later Sis.

Damn Crispi, those turned out very nice! I tried time and time again to build a recirc system but space constraints make it impractical. Now I'm doing 2 DWC buckets under a screen and calling it Quasi-SCROG... I can only hope that my lil system turns out buds looking half as good as those monsters. Love the pictures.... *wipes drool from mouth* Keep on Truckin' my friend

No where NEAR as gorgeous as X-C's but hey, you can only have one real magic man in the crowd.

They're REALLY starting to get some mass on them. They are also both starting to show a K def so I spent the morning flushing them with plain ph'd water with only fair results. I'm going to have to flush them with Florakleen to really do it thoroughly because the roots are starting to do their usual growing everwhere thing and clogging some holes here and there. :wtf: I'll probably do that on Wed......need to build up my RO water supply first. They really ARE starting to grow great guns and I don't want anything to interrupt that.

But now they're back....first one is my cotton candy. She's doing VERY well since I've gotten the ph issues under control with a new meter and have the 400w mh running. I topped her a few days ago and she is just starting to get going. :thumbsup:

The second one is the church. This plant has struggled quite a bit....first due to the ph issues which seemed to hit it MUCH harder than the CC and then it also did not do as well under the new light for quite a while. Seemed MUCH more sensitive to the mh light than the cc but I have no idea how much of that was (or is) ph related.....if at all.

I''ve just started two new seeds......one Dutch Dragon and one Power Plant. I'm still very up in the air about whether I will take the church plant through flowering.....it's had so many problems I don't feel it's a good example of a ganja plant but I may since she's improved quite a bit lately.

WOW they all look great through my eyes. so nice job as alwase.
