Round 2: Extrema & El Monstre DWC Cooler Scrog

[BluBerry]

I have kinda neglected the babies for a couple days.
I think the water level was a tad bit too high which caused the rapid rooters in the net pots to get and stay soaked.
Which is/was drowning the plants and causing slower growth.
I changed the rez and lowered the water level a little bit. Should be good now..
Not sure why the one plant has 3 or 4 leaves that are half green half yellow.
But it looks cool!!

We are all guilty of saying, "it'll be OK for another Day" and than walk in and see issues. we all do it LOL

True. They are looking better now. Hoping to get them under the screen in about a week.

You got it in time. Looking good Blu. And Woodsman, you're so right.

 

[BluBerry]

A few yellowish leaves on the lower branches but new growth is nice and green.

 

[rayishungry]

love the setup.

 

[BluBerry]

love the setup.

Thanks! Here is a pic of my intake.
I cut a hole in the floor and am drawing cool air from underneath.
And I have another hole up up on the opposite side of cab.
Which exhausts the warm air back into the bedroom.
I have a floor vent next to the cab door which allows cool air to be exchanged throughout the room.
Seems to do the job..

 

[BluBerry]

I decided what the hell. I don't care much for LST. It works fine. No Doubt!
But it is alot of trouble tying back and moving then tying back again.
Or maybe I was just ready to get under the screen and train these babies.
I am pretty sure I will have a male. Hoping for 3 females though.
So once they show signs of sex I will remove the male carefully and spread the ladies across the screen.
My goal is to have an even canopy with 12 inch budz in the end.
I set the screen at 7 inches above the cooler and the light is 16 inches above the screen.
I may have to adjust the light depending on how the temps stay.

 

[BluBerry]

My electricity went off at 7 pm last night and at 1 am I seen flashing lights and I heard walkie talkies.
Looked in my driveway and backyard and I had 3 trucks and 1 with a boom running another wire from my pole.
They weren't police but with the walkie talkies and flashing lights I still got nervous and stayed awake til they left at like 130 am.
All I could think about while electricity other than damn I gotta sleep without the air and fan tonight. Lol!
Besides that I was thinking those roots are sitting in the rez with no oxygen or bubbles. It was only 5 hours but that is a lifetime with no air.
They are fine when I checked this morning. A couple of the new roots kinda dried up a little bit but I think they will be fine and grow back healthy.

El Monstre

Freebie, collector only now
Easy to grow plant
Breeder: Sannie









Beautiful looking with excellent bag appeal with lots and lots of thrichomes. These were picked at cloudy

Brown Green Gold Grey Red Rust Orange

Excellent bud density:

Taste and smell; Licorice, Peach,Berry Floral, Pepper, Fruit, Petroleum, Grape, Melon, Grapefruit, Grass/Hay, Citrus, Lemon and Orange.

Even moisture and dryness in the bud

Very smooth and smokable, no harshness at all

Smoke expands easily

Wake and bake, and the rest of the day, little paranoia, but uplifting, day dreaming an easy thing to do in this herb.

2 bowls I'm there

9-10 for a beginner in potency more of a 7-8 for chronic smokers

Take weeks to build up for me as a chronic smoker too.

Usability Morning - wake up [8] Day - work [5] Evening - relax [8] Night - sleep [8]

Overall satisfaction [8]

A keeper for long term use for sure.

Appetite goes up easy on this stuff

Music sounds nice too.

Pepper, berry, haze in the head high, energetic yet relaxing

Extrema
(ChemD X Herijuana)

After a few years of selling the well known herijuana we got lots of feedback about the medical quality's from this plant.
Very powerful stoned to the bone cannabis which is very suitable as a pain killer or just to get real stoned.
The ChemD is a cross which stand out in taste and potency, a overwhelming skunky / diesel smell which stays for a while to torture you.
She gives a extreme stoned/high which will stay for a long time.

The two extremes on each other will give heavy indica dominant plants with a average flowering time from around the 8-9 weeks, harvest is OK for a indica like this but when the space is filled up good this indica can surprise lots of indica growers.
Extrema has 2 extreme parents and as expected this plants will give fireworks for growers that are hooked on strong indica's.
The ChemD will enhance the taste of the herijuana in a very positive way, a strong odor and taste in combination with its strong medical properties this cross will be very popular. The Extrema can grow quite big for an indica which means you need less plants on m2, 9-16 Lady's will do the job.

Type: Indica dominant type
Flowering Time 8-9 weeks
Harvest: Up to 500 gram/m2(indoor)
Taste: A powerful diesel/skunk smell/taste
Effect: Extreme stoned
Flowers: Dense buds covered in trichomes
THC: Percentage up to 23%

 

[BluBerry]

I am really looking forward to a female Extrema this round. Looks like some good shit!!
I have smoked the El Monstre from Round 1 that was flushed out too soon so it didn't reach it's full potential.
Still some good budz tho. Gets me high!!

 

[woodsmaneh!]

Excellent job on the smoke report, did you post at Sannies too?

Well done brother I'm impressed and that's hard to do.

 

[BluBerry]

They are growing but not at the rate I think they should or could be.
I am thinking I need more oxygen in the rez.
Going to Wal-Mart to get all new stones to replace these with.
Some of them are from Round 1. Out with the old and in with the new!
What I have been thinking about doing is making this cooler a DWC/Aero.
By this I mean having sprayers and airstones in there. Maybe for next grow..

 

[BluBerry]

I have one rez with 2 strains in there. One is a 8-9 wk flower and the other is 10-12 wk flower.
Not really the smartest thing to do but I'm gonna make this work with a walk-down flush at the end instead of a sudden shock inducing flush. And take em both 10 wks.
Walk-down meaning to slowly lower the nutes starting around week 8 I will cut the nutes in half for a few days then drain some water out and add fresh water.
This is lowering the PPM in the rez every couple days.
I will do this until almost week 10.
Then I will run straight water for the last 2 days and the Extrema should be done.
I may have to let the El Monstre go for another week after if she needs it, but I think she will be just fine.
This is not the traditional flush. It is meant to help avoid stress and shock and will help you pack on more weight and size.

 

[BluBerry]

Cleaned out the rez real good and switched out the 4 old stones with 4 new stones.
​

2 of my 8 air lines are clear that go into the rez and I think they were letting some light
get into the rez and causing some minor issues.
When I cleaned the rez I rinsed the roots well and removed a bit of slimy rotted roots.
It wasn't too bad but I hope the issue is solved.
I taped the air lines up a bit so the light shouldn't travel thru them into the rez.
Now it's time to get the deer burgers ready to go on the grill..

​

PPM 745
pH 6.2 for now. I will lower it to 5.8 in a few hours
Rez Temp 65.8
RH 68% (Kinda high I know)

 

[BluBerry]

Lowered pH to 5.8
PPM settled in at 765.
RH back down to 51% (normal in my cab)

Mmm those deer burgers sure were good!! Just in case anyone was wondering.. Haha
