Hello Shaggn, I have since changed the set-up of my room, moving away from a run-to-waste coco system to a 100% perlite hempy system. Copied from Flowamasta's setup. Also getting rid of the 400's and CFL's and running a single Gravita Pro 1000.
I am not to sure what the genetics of the Karragullen are, Sativa based i imagine. I was giving it from a friend who has had the strain for years. It is a strong strain that always produces well and has a good all day smoke. It had no name so i just called it Karragullen Cross.
I wiil try and finish a journal next run

Day 52 flower, starting to flush with plain water. Some pics

There are 2 plants, both in 50 litre pots with 100% perlite. The Karragullen is at the rear and Moby Dick at the front.

Some pics of Chipper's Distillery

Here is 1.7 litres of 43% spirit soaked in oak chips and some gobblers chipper for 3 weeks. The chips have soaked 5 litres previously. And two bottles of essence, i used half a bottle of each. 2 ml of Glycerine to mellow out the harshness of the alcohol.

A pic with essence added. Changes the colour slightly. Needs to sit for a week or two, then adjust and drink

Thanks a lot Mo. I am getting better mate! I am also very happy with Flowa's hempy method, i find it to be a very forgiving medium to grow in. Following the week of no water early in grow period and then some flooding issues, their doing fine. It is also the first time i have put in a second screen, it does wonders for supporting these colas!!!
Cheers for having a look mate.

No worries dude, well deserved hey

I'm loving using Flowas method as well dude, you're right about it being forgiving and also so easy to use! I'll never look back now

Hello all, I have found something many would not want to find at this stage of a grow - Bud Rot. After an discussion on heat in another thread, I have been in my grow room a little more over the last couple of days. And just yesterday arvo I noticed 1 dodgy looking leaf on the Moby, all wilted and dead looking. Pulled the leaf off and along came a scabby bit of bud with it! Only a small bit found luckily, but enough for me to take all the big tops off her. A week or so early, but better than taking any chances. I will dry them inside house where temps are around 24-25 degree and 50% RH. I have left all the smaller lighter stuff to fatten up over the week, and will be keeping a real close eye on the remaining karragullen.

Fucking Shit

A couple of pics of a cut down grow room

P.S - Soup, you mentioned my name along side Flowa's in one of your post. I might live on the same island mate, but thats where it all ends. I know a little bit on the subject, but that fella is like an cannabis growers encyclopedia

Oh damn bro that sucks about the rot hey glad you got onto it quickly though, hope there isnt any more!

Conidering you took the tops, there is still a shit load more there looks good man!

Yeh i have only ever had one grow where there has been no problems. Thats what happens when you go farming!! I didnt find anymore, so i left them to dry out on their stems. They are fat heavy buds thats for sure. Yeh Mo, there is quite a bit still on Moby, and it is made the fat colas of the Karra stand out like dogs balls!!

Well i got a little bit paranoid over the weekend and ended up ripping all of the fat buds out. I didn't find any more rot, so the rest is all good. I grew them out to 29 days, and the tops were in flower for 56 days. The tops got a weeks flush with plain water. The remaining mid-storey will be left in till this coming weekend, fatten up on some blue berry final flush.

I can't wait to get my next two up and running now, anyway a couple pics


There was some weight in the Karragullen, colas weighting between 50 and 100 grams. And about 5% amber i would say.

Here's what is left in there.

Wow man there is STILL heaps in there after the chop haha. Awesome work man, love it!
