Snafu, Those Blueberry plants are mouthwatering! It's people like you who make RIU a better place. Like Medshed said we just have to ignore the idiots. Are you still picking nanners?

My question... I am growing AK-47 (30) clones, from 1" rw cubes, into a 1/2 Coco, 1/4 worm castings and 1/4 perlite mixture in (30) 16 ounce cups. I have been using low concentrates (1/4 or so) of Canna Coco A n B with Great White added. I am unclear as how and when to use HZ, RE, Mol or SK. Can you advise as I have not seen it in your journals or those by ShrubsFirst which both seem well done. BTW I am on page 8 on this journal and will look for additional info as I progress. Thanks in advance.

DJ Short Blueberry from Seed

11/27/11 Summary

 ***This grow is updated every Sunday***

  • 5 DJ Short Blueberry Plants sprouted from seed on 10/30/11; Today is Day 28 from seed.

  • All Organic


Hello everyone!

Another Sunday, another update. Last week I topped all the plants right after the second node. This slowed them down this week for a few days. They all recovered nicely a few days ago, and I have seen 2-3" of new growth since topping. This week I watered a small solution of Hygrozyme, Roots Excel, Molasses and Sea Kelp. The Sea Kelp and Hygrozyme are great tools to use to aid plants recovery from stress. I also top-dressed them with a Roots Organic and Alaskan Forest Humus mix....about an inch.

The clones I have taken have not showed any signs of root growth. The clones are all perky and upright, with no signs of yellowing on the leaf tips.

Hey man, this was a completed grow, but RIU got hacked and had to delete alot of data. So, basically the best portion of this grow was wiped out and I am too busy in my life to devote much time to a serious journal right now, let alone fix the one that I had already completed.

I grow organically using soil amendments. So, I really cannot help you with your question. However, I generally use roots organic, worm castings, lime, guano, blood meal, fish bone meal, mycorrhizae, azos, magnesium....I did recently publish my soil recipe but that too was also deleted in the data wipe/hack.

For seedlings clones and veg I only use roots organic, straight, and amend a little bit with hygrozyme and Roots excel when the root system establishes itself.

Sorry I didnt intitially understand your abbreviations, eljardin.

Hygrozyme & Roots Excelurator all stages up to 5th week of flowering...never in the first two weeks.

Sea Kelp is used during veg state.

Molasses can start from 2nd week seedling all the way to two weeks before harvest.

I go light on everything, not much more than 3-7mL of each item and only when I feel the plant could use it or benefit from it.

I dont measure PPMs, honestly. I grow organically in soil and rely on my experience and instinct. I have never, not once, checked my PPMs. Also, have not checked my pH in the last ten years.

Take the science out of growing and put nature back in charge...youll have a lot more fun growing!

In an effort to show the RIU community how this grow turned out, I have decided to post the last few weeks of growth.

Half the grow, the best part, of course, was wiped out when RIU was hacked recently.

Hehe, RIU is a great place for resources. Some people like hydro over soil and vice versa, its all about your own personal preference.

Hey Ima, is that your cross? I'd like to hear your thoughts on the Centennial BB cut. They are a local breeder and I could pick up those beans if they are any good.

Thanks

best DJ BB growlog i've seen, even with the missing parts, too bad about that data loss
OP has given us some very valuable info here, had thought about this strain for a long time and watched as many logs as i could
this went as well as any i've seen, expensive seeds for the results obtained
