Coco grow - Super Silver Haze, Blue Cheese and Trainwreck

[SnowWhite]

Sorry to get back off track but if those who play that Guitar Hero thingy spent the same amount of time learning a REAL guitar, you'd all have something to do when the power goes out!
... and chicks really dig musicians

LOL.....you won't get it till you've tried it mate

I have mates who are proper guitar players man. They were saying Guitar Hero....pffft....I play a 'real' guitar. Then they eventually give in and have a go cos they feel all left out.....and of course...they love it. It's just a good bit of fun

It's all about digging the fantasy man! LOL

I like to DJ and mix up beats, and I'm quite a snob about it too and I'm very scathing of shit DJs, which is most of them to be fair. But that won't stop me having a go on DJ Hero when I get a chance!

Well I found my 100x time magnifier...it was where I thought it should be, but couldn't see it for looking.....'looking like a boy' as my mrs would say.

Just checked the trichs on my 3 SSH and I'm pleased to report that they are ready, well, all but ready.

SSH C is 100% milky. She has been getting flushed since Monday. I like to clean them out for a week so I'll chop her on Monday.

The other 2 SSH are like 80-90% milky I would say. So I'm gonna start flushing those two tomorrow and harvest them this time next week. That will be 13 weeks.

Then we can move on and I can't wait. I'm bored of this grow now and I totally achieved more than I ever thought possible.....I just want to do it all over again now! hehehehe Once my room is clear, I'll be potting up my freaky clones into air pots, the normal new growth is really coming through on them now which is great to see. They'll get vegged for around a month and then I'll flower them up early next year.

On another note of stealth. We had a hard frost here the other night, the first one. My shed roof didn't used to hold the ice or snow. Half of it was always defrosted....looked well dodgy. I tripled, if not quadrupled the insulation on my roof back in October and I'm very happy to report that my roof had a very thick and even coating of frost all over it the other morning. Happy f*ckin' winter days. Bring on the snow!! I had to stop last winter because of this issue.....but oh no....not this year!! The 'fools roof' as I like to call it! hahahaha

Sounds great man, seems like u are on top of everything. So by the SSH C harvest do you expect it to have some amber, or just all cloudy. For pain relief I prefer a bit more trichromes, as they tend to be more stoney. But to each their own.

I hope it isn't too difficult but i would like to nail it down to 50 50 amber cloudy.

No idea man....I'll let you know how they look when I chop them. I expect some amber yeah...if I'd looked for longer on more leaves, I'm sure I would of found some amber today. I'm lucky and don't need to medicate for pain relief, but I totally understand your needs. Milky works for me though and I think the strain has a lot to do with it as well. A milky indica would be more heavy and stoney than a milky staiva/haze, know what I mean. It's just how it is. I think your HG will be really great for your needs man.

and another one for the collection......

TW - C in a nice new 1.5L sealed jar...a few days of days burping and I'll weigh her in.

TW - B has another day hanging and then I'll jar her up too.

I cant wait to see what the final yield is! =O

Hi SnowWhite

I see you have grown the Trainwreck in coco. I am doing a coco soil grow including the Green House Seeds Trainwreck.

Any strain specific advice for the coco based soil I'm using would be awesome or just general advice with coco. It looks like you cut a lot more perlite into yours than comes in the bagged soil I have, I could get extra perlite but didn't really plan on cutting the soil with it would that be a good idea?

I'm going to look through here a bit but it is so long that I can't look through the whole thing before askin whats on my mind

Fristly, my advice is ditch the soil and use 100% coco. No need for perlite either. What you see in the pots is just a thin layer on the top which is from my first small seedling pots. I do put a layer of perlite at the bottom of my pots though.

No spefic advice for the TW...it was easy to grow and is a strong and vigorous plant. You will enjoy it. Can get a bit leggy though, but just try and show her who's boss! LOL

Yeah I grew it in DWC I know how it can stretch like a beast.

Well I won't be ditching the soil as it is over 60% coco already, but I will consider doing straight coco another time. I put hydroton at the bottom of my pots because I have it from doing DWC.

Anyways with the nute feeding on key seems pretty straight forward. Your harvest looked amazing! Grats

Yeah man, just follow and adjust any feeding schedule accordingly and you should be fine with the TW. It didn't strike me as very fussy.

Thanks for your comments mate and good luck with yours.

word snowy! so i had a go with the airpots last night pics in my journo in a bit. sack the hydroton pebbles they fall through the holes it was a right mission to get enough to cover the base. thankfully the weight of the coco held most of them in place but it was a right performance. ive chucked the rest of the pebbles n will be buying some liner stuff like you get for hanging baskets.

cool man, so some of that sphagnum moss stuff is needed then yeah. Thanks for the heads up mate. I'll be potting up into my air pots in a week or so.

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

well i was going to just get the liner stuff the moss might go mouldy getting wet all the time?! or use kitchen towel haha

yeah, maybe. not worth this risk I guess....good old garden stones would probably do the trick though too. Something a little larger than the pebbles maybe. Might go on the scavnege for some pebbles.

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

yeah that hadn't even crossed my mind yeah. last hydro pebbles i saw were marble sized not like garden peas. waste of money. live n learn eh!

 

[welsh wizz]

Dont use the moss Iv seen bad results poor drainage.

good call.....would defeat the purpose of the air pot then.

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

the sales video with the soothing background music made it all seem too easy hahaah i recon with the chunky coco coir there would be no bother, but the fine stuff..... ne chance matey

 

[liljheazy]

man that jar must smell lovely when you open it
