Buddah Tahoe OG (6 fem pack)

[hydroMD]

Ps. I think running a low EC can help with extreme conditions. I recently adopted the less is more viewpoint and give my girls just above the minimum ec they seem to need.

Using an enzyme is probably the only thing keeping these girls healthy right now thus making all theories moot!!!!

 

[hydroMD]

So i think ill wait a full week to post another update... They are officially growing like weeds. Only 24 hours since last pic

 

[akhiymjames]

I had started one, but have only been updating this one. Figured id throw up some pics in the other when im done.

 

[akhiymjames]

Oh ok just was wondering that's all. I've heard good things about these beans so you should be in for something good!!!

 

[hydroMD]

Heat is finally getting to the girls.


Sagging fan leaves on a couple. I froze a couple 2 liter bottles and put them in my res. Dropped my ec to 1.1.

Coukdnt find a stand alone AC today... will have to get one tomorrow

 

[hydroMD]

14,000BTU. Should be here this week!

 

[Mr.Head]

Those things use about double the power of a windowsill type unit. My 8000 btu uses 1400 watts(very inefficient unit) sits tucked away in the basement for that reason. I would be extremely surprised if you could run that unit and your lights on the same breaker.

 

[hydroMD]

Things are still sagging. One plant in particular is kinda bad. Fan leaves are hanging pretty limp.

Will be switching the pump to inline so its out of the reservoir. I think my water temp is the main problem. Was 82f. Got it down to 75 but would like to see it closer to 68f.

Hoping that AC will keep the room down to mid 70's during the day and mid 60's at night.

Cross your fingers homies!

Depends on the size of the breaker

I installed a sub panel years ago to remedy power shortages

All my lights hook to a controller that is on one 50 amp breaker. miscellanious outlets share a few different 15 amp circuits so I should be good. Think this thing uses 13amps for 14000 BTU. Id say thats reasonably efficient.

I should have figured you'd know your shit

Well they are a bit shocked still. Seeing some yellowing... ph was at 5.8. Bumped it up and turned light to 1000w. Cooled down finally and my intake is doing its job.

Hoping to run the 1000w until they are fully recovered then throw up 2-600's. (We'll see whathappens )

 

[hydroMD]

Air cinditioner arrived. Keeping things down to 81 above the canopy with it at 1000w.

Things have bounced back and im probably about to be swamped with training for the next week few weeks.

Hooefully this heat issue was the last hiccup this round!

 

[hydroMD]

Still some yellowing. Did a nute change tonight. Raised the EC to 1.4. PH @ 6.0.

Ambient air is 71f.
Canopy is 80f
water temp 77f*
Humidity 37%

Lowered the light a bit to get them more lumens. Hoping that, with the fresh nutes, will green them up.

They look like they are taking off so hopefully things are dialed and im seeing the result of a few days ago still.



(need a 3/8" bulkhead fitting to run my pump inline. )

 

[hydroMD]

Decided that Im going to run these under a 1000w. Looks like 2 indica phenos amd 4 sativa phenos. Going to train things into a U under the light seeings the girls are already forming like that

 

[hydroMD]

Things are back to happy

 

[akhiymjames]

Looking very good bro. Good job on pulling them back. Getting that ac helped a lot. They're starting to take off and your gonna have some lovely plants. How long you veggin again?

Thanks bro.

Well ill probably veg for another week or so. Plan to top everything, see how things react then maybe top everything again and flip as soon as things recover....

I might top a few nodes off the tops to get my canopy a little lower and then let things fill back in. I just really wanna make sure all heat spells are done before i switch

The little bit of research ive done suggests the sativa dom. phenos double in size during stretch..... anyone here that can tell me a little about this first hand?

 

[hydroMD]

24 hour update. Need to top asap
