Good lord Kilo, the roots are bigger than the plant, Make sure when you're done to let us know how it smokes. You have inspired me to want to grow PPP. I like how thick the plant comes in. Like the new AV too, very chill bro.

She does seem a little shy, she'll open up to ya after a while though. Have any of the bottom leaves fallen off yet?

A few of my bottom leaves have yellowed than withered off. I think that is due to the bottom leaves touching the soil when I pour nutes into the plant.

A hydro system wouldn't have the soil problem.

She's beautiful!!!!

look how big she's gotten.

holy shit Kilo, makes me want to do bubbleponics for my first
grow. the roots are amazing and she is growing super fast. :clap:

You're doing a great job. How do you think 4 plants would do in
a 30 gal rubbermaid???

what nutes are you using again. The micro ones right?
what brand?

Naw, just turning yellow cause they're touching the tub.

You are correct, however, Pam's lower fans are turning yellow because they are touching the tub and pretty much in the shade all the time now.

Well, if you decided to go with a larger setup you will need added nutes for the grow. These nutes here are measured for 6 gallons 22.7 liters you would have to adjust accordingly. I will tell you I had four going in this setup for my first grow, but there just isn't enough room once they get going. Also check out my first grow, it shows her prior to harvest and final results.

This is the nutes

Hey thanks for the link, I never knew that those nutes automatically adjusted the ph and were pre measured, that's the shite man. I have a questions for you though. It's hard to tell how big the package is on the website, Does that last the whole life cycle of the plants or do you have to buy more throughout the grow? If that lasts the whole cycle I'm going to switch immediately. Thanks Kilo.

Edit: I'm also talking about the plants being grown in a 10 gallon tub as well.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm. OK as far I know, the nutes are advertised for a six month period. Now, having said that, you will have to adjust accordingly. After the initial first two weeks were I used half nutes, I changed the water and nutes once a week. This grow here, Pam, just went through 2/3 of the water and nutes from last Saturday to Thursday that's three days sooner then I would normally change. I think though I'm going to let the water run down for a whole week going forward from today. The package of nutes comes with six packs of grow and six packs of bloom and the tweleve packs of micro. It's like the fecking Ronco commercial, set it, and forget it. I had good success with a decent harvest and bad ass knock you on your ass weed with this system on my first grow. However, I purchased additional nutes, because I let my first go 8 weeks vegetative before I flowered her, then another 10 weeks of flowering. Did you check out my first grow?

And yes, how the feck can it be any easier 6 gallons 2.7 liters of water one packet nutes and one packet micro. Oh yeah, the last change, I used my blender for the first time to mix the nutes. Worked like a champ and my fecking arm didn't kill me for a week. hehe The micro is calcium based sea shells I think, so you have to really fecking mix it up good or it could jam up your water pump.

Hey, there on sale right now, 16.7% off, if you buy two, whatever you might have left over you can use for the next grow. I guess what I'm trying to say is that, adjustments will be necessary, but minimal.

Sweet man thanks, and yes I have checked out your first grow many times. I might as well order two if they're on sale. I mean I'm eventually going to have to buy more anyways. Might as well save some dough. Thanks Kilo. +rep

Day35 Week5 We changed the water and nutes again today. The lower decaying fan leaves debris made it's way into the tank and let's just say I'd rather use a packet of nutes than have an algae problem to deal with later. Admitting that we should have trimmed those leaves and could have avoided this minor inconveinence. Also cleaned all the hardware, including the tubing, no fecking big deal here, just mentioning it. So she got another airing out today and her lower rotting limbs trimmed. Here are some pics to entertain until next time. Debating on when to start the flower cycle, 6 weeks or 8 weeks, going to do some research. Peace.....:joint:

Looks like you're getting close to the top of your closet.

I think I'm going to start flowering on the 21st. Gives me another 3 weeks. I guess that would be the 8wk choice for me. I'm taking clones on the 14th.

No not yet, still can raise the shelf one more time.

After some research, found out that Sativa's continue to grow while flowering, so, we'll be inducing flowering Sunday 12-7. Boneman says Zena grew another 20 inches during flowering, Holy shite, at that rate we'll run out of room in the grow space. My last grow, although it was more of an Indica, pretty much didn't grow more than an inch during flowering.bongsmilie

Let me know how the clone thing works out. I've still got four female seeds, but I'd like to learn the clone technique.

only an inch during flowering?? I was always told plants double or triple in size during flower... I guess not all strains :-/

I think that PPP is a pretty compact plant and ends up looking more like a jungle. The yield is still really high due to how compact the plant is even though I don't think it gets as high as some of the other plants. That's what I think, I dunno I'm sure Kilo will answer you when he gets back on.

Alright babies...here we go with some more pictures...Day38...haha, getting close to start flowering, 4 days and counting. The main cola tips got a little burnt yesterday as she grew into the CFL's. An ittsy bittsy (heh how fecking much is that anyhow?) bit of yellow on tips of the fans but nothing major, will monitor. In the meantime we'll add some POW to the tub to dilute the nutes some more. Remember we reintroduced nutes on Saturday well before due date because of the algae possibility, could be the reason for the ittsy bittsy yellow tips. Shite.

Can't wait to see this go into flower. Hey I was wonderin how thick the stem is now. Do you have any new pics?

Are you going to flush a week or so before harvest, I'm wondering if there is any real difference in the taste of the smoke. Like to hear your opinion on it. Anyways, still looks great kilo. :hump:

oh, and can we have another peek under her dress???

heehee
Day39

Ask and ye shall receive. Here are some pictures, and the stem is bad ass thick. Pam gobbled up the rockwool, and look at the main roots, feck, they're choking on the netpot, again, feck.:o

My first grow I did not flush, Pam we will flush, about two weeks before harvest .

It could be the reason my first batch has a hint of mint or some flavor like that. It smokes smooth as silk and feck's me up big time though. And I, well even my friends I gave some to, love the smell it puts out just sitting there. Remember, we cured that shite for two weeks, definite payoff people. I am convinced, due to a trial, that cured buds are truly fecking amazing. If you look at my first grow results, you can see the abundance of thc crystals all over the buds and even the glass jar, look closely.

Anyhow, I'm going to trying to learn guitar, so I won't probably post again until Saturday which will be nute and water change. Because we're going to flowering on Sunday night, we will be using the bloom nutes. Stay tuned....:weed: Same Pam time, same Pam station.....Peace
