I love LST'ing then seeing them pop their heads back up....makes the plant seem more 'living' somehow...

sleep deperevation or good shrooms

 

[Chronikool]

Hahaha...Almost the season in my neck of the woodz.....alwayz the season for sleep deprivation...(yawn)

Day 25 of 12/12


FranJan.....you are going to be very happy with me...yes thats right....the glass is gone in the floodlights!


So growth is chugging along...there are flowers and stuff....and green things....and yip....parties getting started.

 

[Chronikool]

I have noticed they appear much brighter with the glass off....The condensation that was starting to fog up also wasnt helping.

I'm glad you brought that up. I was visiting my friends' lab, where I gave them an LED to use, and noticed some "stain" on the lens. I thought it looked like condensation, but didn't mention it to them.
Possibly a sign it is getting too humid during the off hours, perhaps?

 

[Chronikool]

Thanks for the rep brothers Yeah...it wasnt major...but any hindrance to the light passing through to get to source is detrimental. I tended to notice it more at the end of the light cycle....but i usually work on my plants then anywayz...so that dont mean shit...

 

[FranJan]

Yeah that glass is good for diffusion, but we don't want that. We want all the lumens/PARs/PURs/WWWTWs* one can get from these spots, right? And how are your temps now or are you still to manly for a thermometer?





*Whatever We Worship This Week

 

[Chronikool]

Thats the one Fran....! having said that my Veg enclosure floodz have still got the glass on as they grow close...but that isnt as important as the flowering ones in terms of light use.


im not sure what you mean by a thermometer.....

 

[FranJan]

LOL. Oh and watch out for those suicide plants! My Tangerine Dream mom goes right for my 12000K and tries to hog up the light but ends up just burning it's tip over and over again. Stupid plant.

 

[Chronikool]

Hehehehe...Suicide plantz! Damn....soundz like shes (or her clones) just gagging to get smoked....

I cant afford those genetix...yet...

 

[Chronikool]

I just realized i cant smell my ladies when i enter my room....Kinda weird! Another plus of LED's...little heat in the room means little smell...unless i disturb them of course.

The only time i smell them is immediately after lights on...and thats 3 different strains.

So this will be interesting to see if they smell further into the grow....currently no deodorizes in place.

 

[Chronikool]

So i just harvested my outdoor crop....knew it was going to be pretty crap...but one little gem that stuck out was a lone black strain....i have never seen anything this dark...pity i couldnt get better photos of it to do it justice.

Well i wasnt going to let this one get away so i have attempted to do my 1st clone on a all flowering plant....

Take a look....




Good comparison of colours...

Attempt at cloning....hmmmm....

 

[heckler73]

Wow. That's one weird looking plant. Are you sure it's not from nutrients?

Although, I'll guess you'll find that out if those clones take hold. I'll be curious to see what happens...

 

[Chronikool]

Weird is right....Nah bruv....the last time i fertilized was the end of February...then just let it go as i was a bit despondent with what was happening there....

Mainly the cold has turned it that shade i believe...i've seen purple but not this...

 

[polyarcturus]

im doubtful your clones will survive. i would start picking calyxes off and add a little N high nutrients to the water. about 1/10 strength.

 

[Chronikool]

Oh really....do you think i have too much on the top of them?

 

[polyarcturus]

yeah you took em a little too late in flower, bu they might pull though, and purple strain IME tend to take longer to root, and assuming "black" is really a dark shade of purple.

 

[PSUAGRO.]

Yeah Poly is right^^ as always..........is this your first attempt at monstercropping??? N and a little kelp might help the survival %.... starting to see truth behind all those organic grower hailing kelp as a "miracle" product.

 

[Chronikool]

Thanks team...will add a bit of those nutes to the res and see what happens...no biggie if they dont take as it was a bit of a after thought...got to try these things.....and never seen it done with a 'Black' strain...
