wow u made those out of coffee cans
So the reason i have the party cup girls is i had to shut down my large grow for hopfully no more then a week then i will be back up and running just have to try to maintain the strech till then
All the party cup girls except my strain have blue traits/parents and i can already see if in some of them mainly the blue rhino but they all have a blue tinge to the first set of leafs im going to ice water one just before harvest for sure ta see what i can get
well i wonder what the ice will doI can fit my 3 gallon store bought bubble bucket in the cab just not to sure how i would get it out once it got big hahahahaha since the coffee can is thin it makes way to much noise so i will have to think of something i mean its not super loud just louder then my fans thinking about carpet on the outside of the box and maybe making a washable foam covering for the hydro. Also the trick to any hydro is to have another of the same size bucket so you can simply change them out at time of feeding or once a week makes things go so much more smoothly and if your doing big buckets the shower is the best place to do the switch and cleaning of said buckets
You can let your room get cold also like the last couple days to week of grow ive gotten purple stems and pistils that way but i didn't let it get to cold this time around im going with straight ice water the last week or so of bud
thats what i heardIt changes the plants colors just like fall time and the trees my man
How the hell have you been Lime? Have anything in the works? Im hoping i get rid of these party cup girls soon so i can get back to growing my white widow all serious like but everything is on it second set of leafs looking like they love my box but i have big plans for my white widow so they must go!!!!! Today im going to go and get more 6500K CFL cuz i am still running my 2700K just to fill all 10 socketsLooking good slim
Even thought about getting a porcelain socket and mounting on the back wall and maybe one on both sides for added light and for when they are small to get more light in the bottom of the box. Im running 76-80 on the top of my smart pot and 78-83 right under the top lights 70-75 bottom of the box fans on 24/7. Also i have to say the store bought seed is by far the best looking seedling most uniform but man was it a bitch to get to germ i had to use a tupperware clear dome for a couple days after being planted cuz i peaked and it wasn't doing anything i pulled it out replanted it after treating my soil with big bloom put the dome over it and over night it popped out of the soil then didn't do shit for a day so i soaked the shell carefully and poked at it and prayed at it until i got the shell off it looked sad couldn't even see the starts of real leafs like you can with most sprouts but it made it and is on its second set i see them poking out
Thats what its all about spreading the knowledgeI've been good...just lurking in the shadows last while, like a ghost
So far the structure is almost perfect on the blue rhino and its already working on secondary bottom growth on its 1 week of veg!!!! The Blue Ice is almost as nice same structure but less uniform and the pearl is a ugly bitch twisted and just not pretty think its to much nutrients for the Ice and Pearl but no burn. For the week of sprout and the first week of veg im running Fox Farm Big Bloom 1 TBL per gallon then for week Two veg im going to run FF Grow BIG 1 TSP and FF big bloom 1 1/2 tbl per gallon. I run tap water ran through a brita filter 2x then left to sit over night/24 hours open to breath with a ph of 6.0 and when i water i use a spray bottle to moisten top soil a slight bit then i measure with a mason jar 100ML of water/solution per 16oz party cup then 200ML for my smart pot until she is larger then i will be watering with around 400-600ML. When the top soil get slightly dry after a feeding i use my spray bottle to moist it up to push more of the nutrients down into the soil then i let it dry out almost complety and water with straight water let it dry out completey again before next feed then light water dry out full water dry out and feed on and on..... Im stoned so im rambling but i thought i would explain some of the stuff im doing. I have 6x26watt 6500K 3x26watt 2700K running it stays at 76 if the room is under 76 and anything above 76 up to 85 it runs 80 under the lights and 76-78 on the top soil of the smart pot dont ask me...Im just hoping it still stays cool enough to run all 9 when it gets 90 if it ever does. So im going to follow the Fox farm trio feeding chart on them all just change it slightly cuz im going to start to bud the party cup girls after a week or two on the veg mix. The white widow i have to try to LST it as much as i can and i might not get to scrog it like i planed but im going to try my hardest i guess i could top and such but we will see. Pics asap maybe tonight but tomorrow for sure!!! Anyone have any ideas on a planter about the same width as a party cup just deeper??? Was thinking fountain drinks like 48oz giant fuckers just double them up so no light gets in.......Left this for the end i killed off the sprouts that were they same strain i grew out during my first grow in my CFL box 5 little ones
what about 2 litre coke bottles with electrical tape to block lightPlant update.
So it looks like im stuck with the party cup girls for good 3 blue rhino, 3 blue ice and 1 black pearl. They are all blueberry hybrids the blueberry being the male Then female white rhino, Ice and i believe the pearl is AK47 so we will see
Have you done this fab?
no but there r lots of threads here where others have
Plant update.

wtf haha
Fox Farm is a Three part feeding scedule consisets of Grow Big, Tiger bloom and Big bloom. I dont know how to post links so you will have to google fox farm soil feeding chart im following it but like always i started way lower then the suggested doze i went with %50 strength instead of the adviced %25 strength without much stress only slight disformation and twisting could be the amount of light and eviroment also but they are growing so much faster then my last grow so i think im onto something cuz i topped two plants one Blue Rhino and the other being a Blue Ice. I got out my scope and specked it and what do you know they are already forming fucking trics hahhahaha
This seems a bit much no? flowering nutrients during first week of sprout/veg?
and what medium you got? soil is 6.5? hydro 5.5...hmmm please elaborate...
What you mean?...stuck with the party cups??? you can use anything and transplant when they need to... no? or are you going for a bonzai thingy? lol
do you have to keep em in little pots/cups ...go for gold bro!
Lime my box is the only thing i have to grow in and its only 17 1/2 by 18 deep my smart pot is 12x12 and i can fit 7 party cups around the smart pot anymore and it fucks with the air flow to much thats why i had to kill 5 but i grew that strain out last grow so oh well. So after i topped my two plants last night i was thinking and came up with a fucking awesome idea!!!!!!! Pissed me of tho So the party cups are going to be a 12/12 from seed grow with the first batch already in their first night of sleep. Im going to do 10 in party cups "have 7 now" im germing Williams Wonder 3 beans to be exact. I left the two topped plants in my grow box and they will stay in there until the williams wonder is popped then they go into the dark for their first night So 5 party cups go in the grow box for 12 hours and the other 5 in my dark box for 12 hours then switch them out so i can have 2 sets of 5 going and they will be about a month apart then the White widow will be right behind that and i will have started a new batch of 5 after the first and second harvest then pop another STORE bought fem seed in a #3 smart pot from my June Promo Order My goal is to have a harvest every couple months with 3 months being the LONGEST time between harvest but i think i will be able to shorten that up just have smaller harvests...
So i transplanted two plants to 2 litters bottles seems like a good enough idea to me Im out of tape so the next time im at the store i will be picking up some more and doing the rest.
