yelodrvr's next attempt

[onthedl0008]

this shit cant be right. i am in day 26 of flower and no buds forming. i went back through old grows and pics, but unfortunately i did not label very well in the past. i have trouble remembering last week let alone months ago. so i am unsure where i should be at for 26days.

any body have any opinions, or better yet any pics of a plant around 26 days flower?

i did start nutes late. i am now only at 1200ppm. i have also had temp issues. again but this time its cool temps. trying to find a happy medium. its winter here and using outside air to cool room. temps where swinging from lights on 75F to lights off of 65F maybe a little lower.

would be late nutes be the problem?
would the cooler temps at night be the problem?
or
they look fine go smoke a bowl and chill fool!!!

any thoughts?

Heres my input whatever it may be worth... Is this ur first time with this particular strain? And have u achieved flowering faster in the past? Are u growing an unknown strain? There are many elemants involved in this process...My current grow unknown as it may be sexed in 3 days...top colas and bud sites were well matured and frosty after 3 weeks...On the other hand i have some haze cross types that are in the there third week flowering that kinda look like urs bro..Keep ur nite time light as light proof as possible...Keep ur 12/12 on point and on schedule..Nothing else U can to speed up sexing and maturation other than that from what i can see!

Nice grow man!

its bag seed. as far as the past the grows. last January was my first grow (bagseed), it went fine. my notes suck there for nothing really to compare to. the grows during the summer (Bubblelious and skunk#1) all had issues. temp related. they made it to harvest, but development, yields and harvest time where skewed because of issues. again nothing to legitimately compare to.

thanks for you reply onthedl008. your probably right about the unknown issues with bag seed or unknown strains. i guess i should chill a few weeks and see what happens. i have fucked myself in the past by freaking out and making a decision to early.

i been having some problems with cold temps at night. i think there fixed now. been dealing with it for the last week or so. with this on my mind, i thought i saw the girls nose running a little and wanted advice before i ran them to the local ER. LOL

thanks again man

Many respects to u sir... Ive actually learned alot from ur setup...Just seemed like maybe thats what was going on...so yea chill i guess lol... long as ur following all the simple groundrules of ur particular method u should have nothing to worry about...
I like ur cloning method as well..

 

[yelodrvr]

well since you mention cloning and i am a pic whore. i was going to start this in a new thread. but what the hell.

i took some clones on 11/28 from the 2 plants that are in flower. i did this on day 18 of flower. i took 2 from each plant. 1 from each plant i did nothing but place them in the cloner. the other 2 i cut back the fan leaves and lower growth. the light is a 2' 8 bulb T5's 192w 6500k


before i used a root stimulator. this time i did not have any. so its reverse osmosis water ph to 5.6.

this is day1 11/28. perky other than that, no change. the plants in the 3" net pots are seeds a friend gave me. forget what they are supposed to be. its in a previous post.


day 2 11/30 no roots yet.


day 3 12/1 no roots yet. some of the leave are curling, and alittle yellowing.


day 5 12/3 roots baby!!!!! i think i was just one clone. the others where barely showing. not worth taking a pic of roots. yellowing, and wilting some.

 

[yelodrvr]

day7 12/5 they are looking a little sad. so i added just a little nutes. 200ppm. not for sure if i should have. probaly see the result tomorrow.

the rest of the story on the clones.

i have 6 plants from seed also going with the clones. the other lid i have for the cloner has only 8 holes. so i killed the two weakest clones. which where from the same plant BTW. the roots where no where near that of the 2 i kept.

day 10 from clip






i will post a few pics of the clones and other plants in the cloner from time to time. but back to the plants flowering for now.

 

[yelodrvr]

after someone in a different forum pointed out to me that i should not count off days of flower from the flip of the light, but from the first sign of flower.

which i assume would be the hairs showing. which makes since, because all the other harvest i could never get the amber % i wanted, but the flower time was about right. i never waited it out. always chopped. always though i could have done better if i had waited.

after some reading i understand that there is about a 10 day period before the hormones kick in and you would be actually in flower. so this makes me believe that i am about 10 days behind on flower than what i have stated so far.

does any of this make sense. can somebody confirm when you would consider to be in flower.

few pic as of 12/7


as of today. i swear they filled in over night.

 

[yelodrvr]

to finish up the clones

day 16 from clip.
ready for veg. IMO
ppm was raised to 500ppm about day 11 or 12. thats where it is now.
water temps at 75F. higher than i would like.
ph been a consistent 5.6-5.8. till tonight, it was down to 4.9, need to change the res.
room temp at 72F.
lights where 24/7, until today now they will be 18/6. all this time i went 24/7 because i keep forgetting to pick up the timer. well i finally picked it up. so i guess i now cross over to the 18/6 side. now i will get to see if there is a difference.

clone #1


clone #2

Nice man....So much work

 

[yelodrvr]

i have not decided what i am going to do with the clones and the six seeds i have going. those seeds where given to me by a friend who said they where g13 x mountain jam, chem dog, and the other 2 i cant remember. i think its in a previous post.
i am debating on just using the T5s to flower, until the 2 in veg are finished. maybe flip right now and weed out any male the seeds plants show. then attempt my first scog. when the plant in flower are done i can finish under the 1000w.

i also have 10 seeds i got off nirvana i want to get started. no more bag seed man. no more seeds from friends with no breeders packs and just someones word on the strains. i will start a new thread for those.

few pics of the plants. i think i straightened out the fubar on the days of flower.

day 25 of flower
the plant on the left was topped at the 5th or 6th node. also about 2 weeks ago i split the plant at the point it was topped. i used wire to hold it together. today you can barely tell. stupid mistake. about shit my pants when it happened. the one on the right i did nothing to.

i know people are gonna be like "read through the thread then post" but im a lazy bastard when i want to be so i was just gonna ask the non obvious from pictures...wattage? strain? other than nice hyrdro set up, wish i had the guts to try it and not be worried about fucking up some nice plants so im waiting till i can experiment with it on a small scale and get the habits of it zereod in, but for now im just gonna stick to my soiless organic mediums

 

[onthedl0008]

Yes yellow is fine tuning his grow nicely man u should read the thread.
