Sannie's SugarPunch

[rory420420]

I gotcha, I don't mind high maintenance strain...?s, though, as long as they reward me at the end, almost makes it more worthwhile, kinda. But I like a challenge, it's more rewarding when you finally get it all "ironed" out. Depends though.
Small yields, on the other hand, I have little patience for, I don't need large yields, but I have a rule of 125g per plant, quality nug (not lower nugs), per plant. That's why I dumped the grand daddy purple, purple urkle, girl scout cookies, platinum girl scout cookies, sugaree, and the "c99", I put the c99 in parentheses because I think it was an imposter. Good nugs, but like <90g a plant, which is crap for the wattage I use.

my rule is 6oz a week per 600..usually pull more,but ive been doing multi strain runs cause im a fucking pot snob..normally its 8oz or so

i also run small to medium size plants,8 to 15 at a time due to 7ft ceilings..the center of the room is devoted to my long sativa girls

Which sativas are you running? I have suuuch a soft spot for good sativas. It's funny, when I was in my 20's I liked couchlock, paralyzing, indica highs. Now i'm completely the opposite, I LOVE the sativas' high, so much more. I've been tempted to get some good sativa genes to breed with (Nevilles haze, sannie jack, Dr grinspoon, amnesia haze) but I keep getting interrupted by my own ADD...

that mean you pull 36oz a harvest? (6oz X 6weeks) that's damn good. For one 600w!? I run two 600w (one mh/one hps) nine plants and I get about a good solid KG of top-plant nugs, (similar yields to yours but i have an extra 600) i could get more if I had just two HPS, but I love the difference the MH brings. I could get better yields, but I HATE crowding plants. And, I admit, the last like, I don't know, 10 harvests, I've had mites in some regard.....fuckin redwoods... right now I have BOTH the two-spotted AND the friggin red mites.
I'm about to close my auto shop down for three days and seal up both rooms, bomb the rooms with a hydrogen bomb, and dip all my plants in hydrochloric acid...
damn good numbers from a single 600w. Impressive. When I run a single 600 I probably get around 3-4 hundred grams.
Can't wait to get back to my normal setup, which is 2 600w hps, and one 600 mh together

 

[rory420420]

haha..nah dude,i have 4 600w in a square11ft ft 11ft room..i run in rotation,every week put in 8 or 12(as many as 20 depending on how froggy i am)and pull out just as many..i throw in a few here and there if they get ready earlier just for fun...

 

[rory420420]

i said 11x11..i think its 10x9ish..i forget..lol..

damn, that's some serious lumens you're putting out.
Ever try using some MH bulbs in there? If you aren't worried about a TINY bit of yield-loss, you should give it a shot. Makes a totally different smoke.

this is some of next weeks swap out..i cant find pics of my flower room..ill find one shortly..

now THATS a true perpetual harvest! Do you ever stop trimming though? I need some time in between for sure. Hate trimming..... Least favorite part of growing. In fact I have two whole plants that have been hanging for like 45 days because i'm lazy....well, that, and they disappointed me in their production (sugaree and platinum girl scout cookies) It sounds ridiculous but I really need to just give a bunch of herb away, i'm outta jars...

 

[rory420420]

i alternate bulbs

 

[rory420420]

and pay trimmers.

ah hah, I see me some sativas in there! That's a full room! how do you navigate through there?

 

[greasemonkeymann]

and pay trimmers.

AMEN to that! I need to find me some good trimmers, i'm so particular though. Perhaps i'm a bit anal retentive....
Plus i'm so stuck in the 1990s that i'm still paranoid to show people what I got going on.
didn't even post pics of my own herb, until just this year.
old habits die hard.

 

[greasemonkeymann]

whats the front row all the way to the left?
Looks like a nice one. Gotta love those long sativa fingers

 

[rory420420]

the few leaves in the corner is stelka blue(sat dom blue dream cut only)..if ur talking about the plant,thats my blue hawaiian..heres a little
less than a quarter my flower room..got tired of looking for ariel photos..i only have a few people know what i do,and they are involved also..and trim

 

[greasemonkeymann]

probably the blue Hawaiian i'm seeing. I love seeing a grower that likes the sativas, it's kinda sad when people get all caught up in just the yields and flowering times.
ANYTHING with blue dream genes in it, is a keeper in my opinion. Looks damn good. Got any nug pics of those two?

 

[rory420420]

i can go to another site and retrieve them..or you can browse the "we do grow" section in hallucinatory substances thread..i have dozens of pics..

ucg...is that air-pot 2 gallon ? or 2 gallon equivalent ? lol

checked my notes-good eye! they are 1-gallon airpots (equivalent to .8 gallons) plus i verified this by checking the color of the bottom base. the 2-gallon are equivalent to 1.2 gallons of medium. running an experiment right now so everything i run first is purposefully starting out smaller, and then i'm going to see how things improve on each successive run. there isn't much difference between the amount of medium in the two--must have been why i still decided on running with the 1-gallon...not sure, however, root-bound plants are not issues in these pots, feeding can be tricky though.

 

[rory420420]

this blue hawaiian is mine..so far so good..selecting the best,hoping for a good female to show soon..

Did you pop one or two beans to get your Sugar Punch? And what happened with the "separations" that you did?

Your Bodhi gear looks great. I want to hear how your SSDD and Blood Orange do. SSDD is all the buzz and I am very curious about Blood Orange. I still have White Lotus on deck, but it will be a while till I get to them.

took me two tries for the one girl i've got right now. my notes say maybe three...i can't tell unless i really go count them. and i will, just not tonight. because--

the separation went well, but then another bean popped up in the one i had pulled out...so the one that survived is currently a ? and i'll only know what it is if it makes it to harvest and can be smoked.

thanks. they are both small but healthy and that makes me happy. the sunshine daydream is really running like i hoped she would-exactly the height i wanted her at right now. and i really like her structure and how she looks she's going to grow for me--perfect for my small space. will definitely report back on both. (plus the blueberry hill and blue tara!)
