LB's Wildly Mediocre DWC/ScROG Grow

[Stltoed]

Why do you say you'd worry more about that than hermies Stl? From what I've been able to read, as far as the flowering process itself goes, it will require a 3-7 day period to return to a correct flowering phase, just in how long it takes for it to build back up hormones and etc. I'm thinking that, god willing and no nanners, they should be getting some bud swelling in somewhere between 7 to 14 days if no other stressers happen. I've got to get my timer out of my grow tent, it's way too easy to bump into and push pins down by accident ya know. From all I can find, a 2 day incident should be relatively low risk for both hermi'ing and stalling out the flowering process.

I hope you're right. Only time will tell

 

[Logan Burke]

Yeah so do I buddy, so do I!

 

[Logan Burke]

Got my timer situated outside my tent now, so that's one less newbie mistake that I'll be prone to from now on lol. Trying not to get discouraged, from a few sites I've posted on, others are saying not to fret too much that stable genetics should easily tolerate this mess up. Will probably set it back (another) week...whew what a long grow this will be. Oh and that's just a pic of a jacked looking leaf I have lol, just sharing it.

 

[Stltoed]

Hey slick, hows life? Are your buds putting out new pistils yet?

 

[Logan Burke]

Hey brotha! Oh just the same ol' same ol'. Unfortunetly, we are still just sitting and waiting. No real new growth to speak of, but on an upside all of my buds pistils are still almost entirely white, they're not darkening or anything. From what I've gathered it's normal for the plants to take a good week to recover from lighting mishaps, so I'm just trying to be patient and understanding with them. As of now there's no nanners though. I won't give up on this crop unless/until there isn't another option even if it just means a so-so yield.

 

[Logan Burke]

I've finally got my timers set up to where I cannot clumsily bump them anymore either, better late than never lol. My next grow should be so much more successful! I just need to decide what next strain I will do, maybe White Rhino again as it has been super tough and stable, or maybe some other indica dom strain good for scrogging. Got a couple patients asking for a sativa dom strain next grow, but I'm not sure whether or not they're more difficult to do than an indica?

Try King Tut from Pyramid seeds. Take a look at the pictures. Its an 80/20 sativa, it's super easy to grow, puts out a great yield, it's very strong, as much as 25%. I want to do that one again

In the last pic. The plant in the upper left is Pink Candy

 

[Logan Burke]

Woah is that seriously an 80/20 sativa dom strain?? That looks beautiful and damn fine colas to be a sativa! I think I'll go ahead and place an order for some of those now, hopefully my usual seed bank Bonza has'em in stock. I have a week long trip coming up in January, I'm hoping to get a crop in before I go on my trip as I don't know if I would trust my friends and family here to care for my babies lol. But those are nice plants good job.

AK47
They are out of this strain on Seedsman

I took a big trip a while back and had my son watch mine. The PH went up and the PPMs went down, but it worked out. If you can sort out your Ph and add a float valve you could take off for a while. Even if your PPMs go way down you should be good

 

[Logan Burke]

Ya man I rlly want to set up a rdwc hooked directly to my ro system like yours. It will be my next project. I'll likely do it in between semesters and all. I think my babies are starting to snap out of the dam reveg, the growing tips are knotting up and sprouting a couple hairs so, I guess that's a win lol.

Nice! See!? This stuff is easy. Haha. New growth looks it monster cropped a bit. I dont think it has, but...

 

[Logan Burke]

I think thats why some people do it on purpose is because it sorta monster crops them. But that's when you totally reveg and then flower so I doubt mine will get that benefit. And yes now I'm starting to remember how easy it is when things get in sync! Worst case scenario I get a cool experiment and a couple zips of fairly ok bud. Others have had it worse!

 

[Logan Burke]

I forgot to ask, how long did that Tut strain take to flower? I'm really wanting to run it next if I have the time!

I think I have you beat haha. My season is circling the drain. It's not quite as bad as i make it, but no prizes this time that's for sure

 

[Logan Burke]

Oh I'm sorry to hear that man! What went wrong with yours, if you don't mind my asking? I remember you mentioned the h202 burn, but it looked like your babies bounced back relatively well even the more severely burnt one. But hey you're not alone with that 'circling the drain' type situation...that's much how I feel everyday these past 2 weeks, but as long as they don't go hermi I won't ever give up on them. My stubborness is simultaneously my greatest strength and biggest weakness when it comes to growing, hahaha.

They are coming back. Pistils on a lot of buds are showing white. Still tiny. I'm thinking about 2 weeks. It's up to the trichomes. They better hurry the hell up. I need to start the clones for the SOG

 

[Logan Burke]

I'm guessing that I should just leave this on my plant and not snip it off? And hell man that's still going to be a nice harvest from the looks of it despite taking awhile!

We'll get through it. Are your fan leaves turning purple? If so you may want to up the Phosphorous. Unless of course your plant is supposed to be purple

I've not been getting purpling yet, but the plants are starting to get hungrier. Lately they've been perfect at 600ppm, now they're not liking anything under 700ppm, so that's a good sign I think? I started giving a real light dose of LKB as well, but starting low at like 10-20% of label strength. Only 4 days since the lighting screw up was fixed, but I'm thinking they'll return to full bloom very soon!

I think you're about ready to the boots to them. I'd head up to about 900 over the next day or two, then maybe up to 1200 a few days after
