BKB's 2nd Grow

[bekindbud]

I'm in the same boat, been debating on trying a 5 gallon DWC or two but I've always been more interested in aeroponics... I guess it'll come down to time and budget when I finally pull the hydro trigger, for the most part I'm still a big fan of soil and prefer smoking meds grown in soil.

I'll be home all day for the most part, I'm just waiting to get paid so I can buy some ducting to finish linking both tents, also need to start getting ready for a No Pest Strip treatment for the next week or two

If you want I got some spare 8" Air Ducting.....not sure if you can use 8". I also have about a 3' piece of 4" Air Ducting.

Peace

I can definitely use that 4" ducting, it should be the exact size I need to attach it to the 4" intake I have near my window into the flower room. It's about 2 to 3 feet from the window that has fresh cold air that I want to suck into my tent

BTW, I have yours and BC's Sour OG clones ready to go to their new homes

Hey BKB, I got my Northern Lights regular seeds from Nirvana. I'm trying to get how you MIR straight in my head. I have Terrie in a 2 gallon pot so I use 4 gallons of pH water to MIR. Should I use 3 gallons of it for watering and use the last gallon to fed her ( I know I might not have to use the whole gallon)?

Yep....run 3 ro ph'ed to 5.8 and the last gallon your feed mix...I run 5 gallons so I do 10 gallons rain 2 gallons feed...I run the whole 2 gallon s feed through no matter the runoff...That way I know that the rainwater has been pushed by the feed water and the nutes are equally spread and have sayurated the mrdium

whats up bro i read that right for a sec i was wondering what people were talking about lol i know you only use one gal after the flush for nutes but what i meant was i can feed several plants with a gal of nute water but i do like how MIR works...lol running all that water with nute your nutes would be flowing just as quick as the water...my grden is going pretty good got a lil purp around cause of low temps and got scared cuz a few are throwing out male bananas as a last attempt so save its self nothing to worry about though so late in flower it not going to pollinate and they are far from opening ill get some pics soon

Keep in mind , this is nothing new MIR that is . You should flush your plants once every 3weeks or so when using chemical nutes . Peeps been doing this for years .

well the main diff here is we leech feed every time they need water...and nothing to do with the chems but it is awesome as never any lockouts or buildups of salt...ever

Today I got my 4 other Northern Skunk clones form Billcollector, he got a total of 10 off that Cougar and is now Flowering the rest in his greenhouse. I am going to donate one to Bajafox, so baja I got your NS clone here wheneve i come by or you come by.

Temps in my tent for its 1st full day of running was: 68F 22rH%(min) to 82F 38rH%(max) damn if I could only have these temps all year round. I will probably update with pics tomorrow, I am tired and completely wasted.

Peace

This is one of my favorite parts of growing...."The STRETCH"

Hands down, my favorite time during the growing process, although it doesnt last long but during the plants Stretch Phase it is amazing. I love it cause the flowers really start to pop, the stem and branches thicken and the plants get that aggressive growth with fuzzy pistils!!! LOVELY! My next favorite part during the growing process is Veg Phase. Not too many people really like this part of growing but I love it!!!!

My MamaDudes and OG Herojuana are in that stretch phase right now....I probably took about 20 different pics of each plant. I love taking pics of my plants. Today I transplanted MD#2 from a 1 gal to 3 gal. She needed it!!! I also MIR on MD#2 and fed her: (50%GB/100%TB/100%BB/100%EJ/50%BOT/Molasses).

Clones

I finally found my way of cloning. All of the clones are already rooting. I even donated my 1st ever rooted clone to BillCollector for teaching me and helping me learn about the cloning process. Thanks BC, I hope that clone gives you some bomb ass smoke bro! You deserve it PITA!!!

Thanks brotha, Billcollector really helped me understand cloning and to keep it simple.

 

[bajafox]

Congrats on the cloner! Everything looks great

Those cuttings look great bro. That Herojuana plant looks like it's thriving in your setup too.

Hey I meant to ask about this - I've noticed some calcium/magnesium deficiency going on with MD when I got back (very minor on just a couple of leaves). Have you experienced that with her? I'm not sure if I should blame the pH (it was a little high when I got back), the very slight amount of CalMag+ I added causing some sort of lockout, or if she just has a hunger for a lot of calcium and magnesium...

Every feeding I give her a full dosage of EarthJuice Micro Blast (1tsp per 1gal)and I never used Cal/Mag on her before. Seems my EJ MicroBlast works. Remember my 1st grow with the lockout, I went out and purchased that EJ Micro Blast and never had that problem since the 1st grow. Honestly you and I both know this is my 1st real run on MD cause I never fed any of the ones correctly during the 1st grow. Those MD plants were mellow and yellow!!! LOL Your MD is looking insanely LARGE!!!! Please post pics of her on my thread. Thanks bro.

Good to see you back. Hope your trip was good.

Man BKB, your clones are looking good. The rest of the family is growing like crazy. I'm a big fan of your MamaDude strain and they are starting to bud up very nicely plus green and healthy. That R.Ed Kush is looking mum mum grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat Man that OG Herojuana is a beauty, she is going to have some massive colas. Great grow!

Well its the end of the weekend, I wasnt feeling well this morning, I puked two times. Not sure whats up but I am feeling better now. Once again I have nevertheless made a horrible nOOb mistake. Yesterday morning when I woke up I started my day very good. I had to MIR on R.Ed Kush and after I was done I went to go put her back in her spot and I dropped her right on top of my MD#3. Look back at my last pics of MD#3 to see what she looked like. Ouch. Two of her main branches were completely snapped off, I was bummed out. After that if that wasnt enough, I dropped a whole bag of soil on my bathroom floor and tub. I was really upset.

Billcollector came by last night and we fixed my ventilation for my tent and smoked some serious bowls of Chocolope, TrainWreck, Louis Xiii Kush and Bubba Kush. So I needed that and thanks for coming by and fixing my ventilation! Another good thing that happened was I recieved a free clone of Venom OG Kush from a friend. I was happy cause remember I culled my last Venom OG Kush plant. What a relief. Enough said here are some pics:

New Tent Temps (Thanks BillCollector)



MamaDude#3 (You can see where the plant fell on her, I call it my Hardcore Mosh Pit Sup Crop) I cloned the 2 branches that snapped



Venom OG Kush (Round II)



Clones (Re arranged and added the new MD#3s)



Jack Herer (Pic on left is w/flash and pic on right is no flash natural looking color)

MD#3 will be fine - no biggie! Thought it was worse than it looks in the picture. In fact, if you have the time and space to keep her vegging for a couple of weeks, all that inside growth will catch up to the old tops if you keep pushing those branches out and down like that. That's basically what I'm doing with Athena by design this grow.

And hope you feel better man.
