[QUOTE="nevergoodenuf, post: 10601406, member: 60588. ]It will end up here- 800 watt bridgel outdoor floodlights grow. At the moment it's 10 SourD's and an AK I'm finishing up. Didn't mean to hyjack your thread Alpha. I will up date it tonight.[/QUOTE]

Awesome! No worries man, we gotta make an AO fan club Lol. I'll check out your journal tomorrow

I figured id snap a pic today, so herez an update. The only problem i have is a mag deficency (i think) with the organic larry in soil. Looks kinda bad, but hoping she turns out alright. The rest are looking a-ok

New life! My first autoflower has sprouted. Auto blue Himalayan diesel. Sounds good, but have not heard good things about this strain. Maybe make some good bubble hash outta it when it finishes

Looks like I need a new pH probe. The pH isn't acting too crazy really, but its getting crystalized (must have been like that since I started from storage or something.) Pisses me off Lol, $50 for a new probe and I have to order it. I went to calibrate it today, and the 4ph adjustment screw won't turn anymore, like i adjust it to 4.1, and i can't get it to 4.0, if that makes sense. At least its calibrated for now but I'm thinking about getting a cheap $25 pH pen for now, I've never had a problem with cheap pens like the Milwaukee, but they need calibration quite a bit, but they are good back up which I have no back up meters unfortunately. So the pH is at 5.7 (I think, who knows), and I ran out of pH down, which SUCKS, so I'm hoping the pH is in range and will be OK for another week or so til I can get a new probe and pH pen. PH must have been in range this whole time because everything looks fine, but I have no clue what exactly its at

Well, I have run out of room to tuck any thing any further, so I guess today is the end of scrogging, I hope that's OK. I am just going to let them do their thing now. Everything looks ok, let's hope the yield comes out OK

Here's a pic as of today

Dont forget to chop everything under the canopy!

Will do! I've been slowly snipping tthings and getting the under side cleared, 5/8 are good to go and still working on the rest. Got my ppms @1330 now been doing a 50ppm bump up daily and they seem to be taking it fine, no burns finally got some pistols forming, can't wait for another couple weeks to see how the bud development will be, some nodes seem kinda far apart but hoping they fill in, have the light @17"

SICK STRAIN. Nuff Said.

SICK STRAIN. Nuff Said.

Thanks man! I'm really looking forward to it, only smoked Larry twice now and never had the orange before. I'm hoping the stretch simmers down soon, they grew about 14" in a week. Can I put a second screen on it or should I leave it the way it is? I didn't think they'd stretch this fast and its pretty dense canopy. Not sure what to do now lol. This scrogging thing is tough but I've never had such a nice canopy before so I think its worth it

Looking good. Just netted mine the other day. The sourD I have, went from 16" to 36" in a week and a half and now seems to be done stretching. Just slide your net up until it's at your shortest tops. When you clean up the undergrowth, turn them into clones. I was able to get 30 cuts off 10 already cleaned-up plants. When I push the food, I try to flush the soil once every 2 weeks. I've had the runoff at 1500 ppm when I was only feeding at 900 ppm. I use about 3 gallons of water per plant.

OK cool, I'll slide the net up once the light comes on. I'm starting to have so many problems with the Larry I have in soil, it starts getting better than it starts looking like shit, I can't figure it out so I think I'll just turn the whole plant into some concentrates or something. Its too damn bushy I think and the nodes were tangling other nodes and everything got so twisted on it so I cut a lot of branches off hoping it will get more air flow. There was like 15 nodes per branch and all started to grow in to arms, it was wierd as hell Lol, looked like a bunch of cable wires behind a TV stand Lol. I also super cropped the hell out of them all last night, hope I didn't stress em too much but with the Larry having such huge leaves and taller than the AO , the Larry's were covering so many good bud sites

 

[AlphaPhase]

I still have no idea what my pH really is, I'll have to get new meter sometime this week. Ive been using the pH drops to give me a rough estimate and I think its about 5.5-6 but not sure. Damn hanna probes suck. Here's some updates

 

[AlphaPhase]

Pic update day 10 flowering

 

[SmokeAL0t]

Lookin good Alpha. I can't believe your PPM isn't too aggressive, but everything looks fine. I've been busy but still around. Good vibes man!

Thanks man! I'm pretty surprised at the ppm too, No burns, not even the leaf tips, I kept upping the dose little by little just to keep a nice even green color, and they freakin love it. When I was at around 900 ppm they were a a little too pale and I kept upping little by little and they kept taking it, I think 1300s is gonna be tops though and I might back it down a little once the stretch is over, I'll probably use some higher P K levels soon but with a 1000-1100 ppm range. I dunno, I just took a big bong hit so I'm rambling Lol

Oh yeah , the node distance on the hydro plants are pretty far apart , not sure why though, I hope it all fills in, but on the soil plants the nodes are pretty damn close together, makes no sense to me since its the same strain

The pic with the tape measure is the hydro AO nodes and the other pic is the soil. The soil is looking like itll kill the hydro for yield, but we will see

 

[SmokeAL0t]

We got a baby that was a runt till it hit the ground... now a monster. The beefier (same girl) one is now the runt..... Go figure!

 

[AlphaPhase]

Lol, its weird how it works out that way sometimes! Here's an update with out the hps, its tough getting pics right before the light comes on, I always am too late, but here's a good one

 

[SmokeAL0t]

Yay! Canopy-O-flowers!

Looking much better now. I can't fucking believe they look so good with so many nutes! Good vibes, keep rockin!

 

[AlphaPhase]

Things are still looking good, should have my pH meter in by Monday, I know it's definitely still off, I've gotten some leaf claw on about 6 top leaves on the Larry's, but things llook OK, I'm gonna say the ph has been too low and the Larry's don't like it, I dropped the ppm down to 1100 and ended up doing a res change yesterday BBecause I think the nitrogen levels were starting to get concentrated, a few Larry leaves were too green for my liking, possible leaf curl from a low pH and n overdose combo but all in all good to go now I like the oranges a lot more, they seem to be very hardy and can tolerate whatever you give them. I think the stretch is over finally and buds are starting to form woo-hoo!!!! I'm starting to think they stretched too much from the ph problem, seems it has been off for a long time. Not sure if pH can cause stretch though, but that would be my guess. Also, I don't think I like Lucas formula for veg , the stretch could also have been from lack of N? I think I should have added some grow nutes to the mix in the veg stage, learned a lot about this system and nutes though so next grow should be better. I got a tangilope seed sprouted today too, can't wait for that one!!

 

[horribleherk]

sorry i havent been back by sooner had a few ph issues myself but have overcame them i have 2 grow journals but dont know how to link them in my sign theyre called r/p skywalker round 2 & r/p skywalker the 3rd grow theyve really stretched since i had to use that stick to train them i let them veg too big ive got monsters on my hands now i use organocide to control mites/bugs $14.00 home depot the round 2 journal has some good bud shots in it im hoping this grow does as well those threads are in the grow journal section drop by & check it out if you get a chance the 3rd grow is updated every day
