The Midnight Farm Grow Journal: Welcome to the Harem

[MustGro]

I like your setup @MidnightSun72 . It looks like a real efficient way to run a lot of plants.

 

[MidnightSun72]

This one looks like it's gonna be fun!

hey Thanks.m for the nice words.

I have said it before and I'll say it again, DAMN YOU KITTIE!!!!

Ya fuck

I like your setup @MidnightSun72 . It looks like a real efficient way to run a lot of plants.

again thanks for the nice words. I just tried to make my room the most convenient and safe as possible for me to work in. Everyday I am looking for ways to cut down down my grow room tasks so I can be more meticulous inspecting the plants and staying on top of the grow.

Hope to switch to a drip setup in a round or two. Or may just try two trays on drip/hydro first. But eventually this would eliminate the garbage bin res in the room to free some floor space. Also grabbed 2 small dehumidifer (50pt wifi and 70pt) to replace the 12000BTu portable AC I am dehumidifying with right now.
Once that happens it will free up another 10-15 sqft of cultivation space

There's always more to buy..... But great setup.

Our old cat used to try to eat my plants every chance she got. It was a constant argument between us.

Here I'm shooing her away from last year's Passion Fruit plant. it ended up yielding quite a bit, no thanks to her. Lol. She even knocked this one over off of a counter through some weird Rube Goldberg sort of chain reaction she started... Errg! Still miss her sometimes though.

Omg don't even get me started. One time my cat jumped up on the table I had all my clone trays on just so he could hang out with me. Then I yell at him to get down. He jumps off but kicks a tray of clones off in the same motion and 18 solo cups hit the ground all freshly potted clones.

Photo dump from today.


zookies X rockstar #2. I got both the original seedling and the clone in the same tray. And they are both pretty much their same height. I kept back the zookies x rockstar #5 based on clone size/stretch alone. But I think I was wrong.

Should have kept the mom for #2. She smells really good sweet like vanilla or something. Visually she has the biggest buds in the room, although a bit leafy for my liking. Looking forward to see how it is later in flower.

think I should pull one of the plants let it reveg for a mom? Or just cut a clone and let that reveg instead


purples starting to come through on the Sandstorm flowers. Night temps are 76-80. This is purely genetics. They will get much more purple over the next month



Skittlez


Figuring out how and where to hang these in the room out of my way. But still easy to deal with if problems arise.

 

[MidnightSun72]

Zookies X Rockstar #2 been feeding at 1300-1500ppm but I am wondering if I should go higher. Floraflex is recommending 1400-1600 at this stage of flower.



LA Kush Cake. Though the buds are small. They are starting to look interesting

Started to hang a shelf to get the dehumifiers up on. But now I am reconsidering location. And I need to think about how I am running my fans etc above the lights. What I want to do is hang them off to the side off the rafters but I am scurred to put any water over the height of electrical stuff in the room.

I never went higher than 900ppm on my last grow, with my tap water being 150ppm out the tap. Their feed chart, like every other one out there is just bonkers. I only used 2g per gallon of b1&b2 the whole flower cycle.

Honestly I was feeding down around 800-1000 and on that amount many of the girls were getting deficient. But most are happy now at 1400. But you see the yellowing on the leafs? Think that's more a PH problem or something?

Edit: Also I've been diluting my tap water down to 150-180ppm before mixing the B1 and B2

Unrelated:
discovered the black dehu has an insanely bright green light to tell you humidity. Like so bright I could see in the room at lights out. So let's hope the one night didn't upset the girls too much.

Are you just using the b1 and b2 currently?

I don’t cover up any of my power bar or dehu lights

Yup. Just b1 and b2. I think I am Using about 1.5-2g/gal of B1 and same for B2.


I have some cal mag, Epsom salts and AN big bud on hand that I bought from before. But I only use B1 and B2 right now.

So after switching to these dehumidifiers I just had them blasting their dryest setting. The RH was getting pretty low and pots were drying out in under a day. This also elevated the VPD drastically. I wasn't super stressed about it at first just noticed they drank more water. But really started seeing some considerable
with the Pink Kush.
They were drinking all the water and leaving the nutes behind.

Sandstorm



Pink Kush got badly locked out. Started about 3 days ago I lowered the nutes a bit and watered a little extra runoff than usual but it wasn't enough. Last night I flushed every pot down to 700-800ppm. I should have just checked the PPMs at first problem.


Will try feeding around 800-1000 for a bit and see what happens and whether the nutes accumulate again.

[MidnightSun72]

Been chasing PH and nute problems al week flushing snd checking. Every pot I check is down to 600-800ppm run off and 6- 6.2 ish PH. So I hope I can actually feed now I think they might be hungry for real as I've only been feeding 800ppm and the. Just straight water next watering. Anyway gonna power through and see.

LA Kush cake my fave happy girl



AJ#2 not too bad for Lp bag seed

Mamas horny trying get some action from the lights. So they getting a haircut very soon


stupid baby clones are now like teeny bopper clones getting some good height and filling out.
I try to keep them in cups as long as possible.

 

[MidnightSun72]

Ok so I haven't shown too much of my outdoor shit. Sand storm is a super early finisher so I like her for outdoors. And she does great in the cold being a pure indica. So she's perfect for Canadian outdoor really.

anyway I am about to show you something I did called air layering some y'all might know it. I basically split a mom into two using this method.

what you do is bare a section of the stem for a about 2" but careful not to weaken it too much by taking out too much meat. You cut a Dixie cup almost in half and wrap it around the stem. Then you can fill that cavity with peat. I just used promix here since it's mostly peat. Then you moisten the peat and wrap in cling wrap and let her root up. The bigger the cutting the longer I wait. This one rooted quite well and didn't wilt at all with transplant dspIte staying outside in full sun.

see the Dixie cup in the middle




Chop under the root ball obviously lol

Now to pot her up

 

[MidnightSun72]

Had to pot some ladies up. Here we have Amnesia from RQS which I am not running but still run a tray next round. Then we got LA Kush cake also hope to fill a tray of that. Pink Kush and then just some backups of various cultivars flowering in case I like them.

Dynamite job with the air-layering @MidnightSun72 !
