Barneys Farm Pineapple Chunk Fem & Skunk #1 (NFS Hydroponics / CFL Grow)

Het whats up sorry about ur plants i thing you need to flush them with water for a day or two and then go back on the nutes and try less sometimes lesser is better, as far as hydro you should be checking ph every night and topping off with fresh water and checking your ppm thats a must to me, sometimes ph can go up alot in a day and if you ant checking it and lowering it to 5.8 shit can go bad fast, i think they will pull through they just need some tlc

dayum!!!!! they kinda look like they will pull thru with some much needed love and care. thats one issue i see with going hydro. if one plant goes, chances are the entire grow follows suit. in soil, if one plant goes, its only that plant and the rest are uneffected. good luck in getting your girls back to their healthy state.


what state do you live in?

Well I guess shit happens a couple months wasted, but alot learned so I cant be mad. Both plants turned crispy and died it had to have been when the pump failed then the roots got damaged. I checked the PH it was normal also the nute mix I was using was the same for weeks. I think my problem actually might have been heat as well. I was growing in an attic type setting with no ventilation. I've decided to continue growing after the mishap and have made a nice tall box to fit my needs I'll post pics. Also I've decided to go all soil (Less chance of mechanical failure.) What strain would you guys like to see grown anything in particular? I'm pretty confident that this next grow will make it to the end I think im finally going to trust the setup i have.

Wow that sucks you live and learn just chalk it up as a learning leason,i thought ur system looked legit but if you want to grow some killer weed its always best to make sure everything is perfect like temp, humidty, lights, timmer need to be check all the time to, nutes at right ph ppm not to high, double check and then double check again is my motto, i check everything once a day from the fans to the exhaust fan make sure my timmers are all right make sure theres no light leak if you spend alot on seeds u need to take care of them babies, it always best to learn in soil first anyway ,i wish you good luck i like to see a good banana kush grow

damn, so sorry to hear that, but hey, you get experience in return. ofc this kind of setup requires either for you to watch it every hour or be sure that mechanics won't fail.. And mechanics always fail at some most inconvenient point... I'm growing in soil and I'm really happy with it. You get enough challenges in there as well lol, would like to try hydro, but just for expanding my knowledge, other than that, soil fully satisfies me..

And man, nobody can tell which strain to grow for ya ))
Before I started growing I knew that I wanted something uplifting, couchlock-less, clear headed trippy buzz with a lot of laugh, so when I smoke it with my friends we would not turn into mumbling sleepy things not being able to make a sentence. But the main criteria was uplifting energetic laughing strain. I tried silver haze, did not find what I expected, then wanted to get Kali Mist, but it was so god damn expensive, so in the end I went for C'99 and probably I will not be growing any other strain but this. The tropical fruit/alpine fresh smell during the grow, only when resin starts packing you get more intensive but still not weed like smell, it finishes in not more than 49-52 days from flip. Everytime I smoke it I stay awake, laugh my ass off and have some funny trippy experience. Heaven strain, but you see, you need to know exactly what you want so you can start looking for

Hopefully you'll get back to growing business, cause it's so much fun and do not let one failure to demotivate you!

any news on the girls? are they lost? did you manage to bring them back to life?

Well, I ended up going with a cool tube HPS and tent. I've decided to grow one diesel low ryder, a purple ryder and one ak ryder all auto flowers in 5 gallon DWC systems. I expect to receive my seeds soon and I will create a new thread !

cant wait for the new grow. just a heads up so you don't run into issues like I did. dial in your flower room weeks before flipping. my flower room ran almost 8* hotter than my veg room. and now I have a lot more fans cooling things in there. you don't live anywhere near the metro Detroit area do ya?

Thank, yours are looking good! I'm about 3 hours away from Detroit. Just got my seeds ordered today. I ended up going with auto flowers this time mostly all from joint doctor. I got Easy Ryder (AK-47/Low Ryder), Chronic Ryder (Chronic/ Lowryder #2), Purple Ryder (F7 Mazar/Lowryder), Diesel Ryder (New York City Diesel/Lowryder), and Thai Fantasy.

NICE!!!!!

hey, what state/area do you live in?

Hey everyone good news I've been working on my second grow and im opening up a new thread tonight. Ill be growing fem ww and skunk #1

no go on another round of PC strain? I may have gotten a great pheno, but it got mixed up in my batch of clones of the other PC's I took and in veg. id highly (pun intended) recommend trying out the barneys farm laughing buddah. holy shit, that strain is looking awesome. ill be looking forward to your new grow journal CFL.

Sadly no I'll probably give them a shot next grow. I killed the two I had, then one seed didn't pop so I'm out. I heard laughing buddah is flame I might have even had it before or something close. Thank! Yeah I think I got a pretty nice pheno to wait until you see this update saturday im switching to flower the plants getting huge.

I harvested last week. the PC didn't hold up to my expectations at all. both plants didn't yield that much, but they were full of trichs. I haven't really smoked any yet as everything is still curing in jars. but im giving the PC one more go. the LB is awesome!!!!! the yield was great, better than I thought. nice big colas, super sticky, tons of trichs and smells great.

hey CFL, I tried a bit of the PC last night, even tho the cure isn't finished. she smokes wonderfully. awesome high, great taste and smell when put thru my grinder.

Damn! I'm jealous, but congrats on the fruits of your labor! I heard it's a great medical strain, and I might go back to it eventually. What was your average yield per PC plant? My WW will be going twelve twelve tomorrow if youd like to take a look at my other journal! Hopefully I make out with some flame this time.

definitely would like to check out your other journal. im going to do a weigh in today after work. all 13 jars are 60% or under r/h, so let the curing begin.
