First Timer, Perpetual, 600 watt dirt

BTW, the first picture are of 6 blues, i used straight water for the first week or so, and once all the roots started showing, i through in some B1 Thrive. Roots seemed to slow down on growth for a couple days, then they really started bushing out.

on my 2nd picture, i have 9 PK clones, and 2 blues, all plain water in this cloner, the roots on the blue seem much thinner, more lengthy, but still look good, temps in res stay about 77 deg lately, i try to keep it 75-80 in the water, and surrounding temps are about the same..

the PK is s a slowwwwww cloner, maybe she likes less, more heat, we shall figure it out eventually.. but soo far, im getting a feel for the blues, on cloning, next step is making sure i get a healthy veg state out of them. thats my current issue. could be my dirt, temps, humidity, who knows, but im having issues in the veg i really hope to clear up.. flowering ladies look sexy!
 
My PD is slow rooter also
i thought there was no roots
pulled on the stem a little out piped one tiny root 13 day
i made anothe pd clone
i had the same thought ,,,, just a slow rooting plant
thumbs
 
sooo, here we are 54 days into flower for miss Blue, my first baby everrrrrr. she has been through some tough times! but i think she is going to give me a nice little delicious satisfaction in some way shape or form ;p -straight waterrrr

AS for mis PK! she is striding right along a week or 2 behind miss blue, i love the way she is turning out, she has been such a nice thick looking plant compared to my first blue... - tried 1/2 strength of my connoisseur feed on her :] seeing how shee likes it, it will most likely be the only feed, we shall see..

buttt, blue made babies....

and her babies are looking FAB!!!!!! my 4 blues in flower are showing there 6 main budsites pretty well ;] - straight water


its not perfectly even, but shit, its damn fuckin sexy to meeee :]

so that is life in the flower room, besides the 2 little pk zombies that came to life, they have been in there for a couple days or so, we shall see some pics of them soon enough.. -straight water

gonna see a Tipper show tomorrow night! just gotta get through this last day of hell at work, then off to the new year weekend! cheers all!

P.S. ! please, there are sooo many different opinions on fan leaves, as you can see in my PK picture, she has some nice big fat fans, my buddy says take them out for the lower nugs to obtain more energy from, light, i believe they have too much precious energy still giving, and taking in.. soooo, i want to keep until they wilt, snap off easily, opinions!

YEY! i got my first harvest accomplished!! now time for some first time drying and curing! maybe n curing depending on if its going straight to hash or not..

i may keep a few nugs, and blow the rest, we shall see, but hey. down! i used the microscope to determine enough amber heads for chop.. ive been looking at her for about the past 2 - 3 weeks, never seeing any amber, till recently, but then last night, i felt like i saw plentiful ambers out of a handful of foggy trichs.. and little clears.. sooo, i feel like i did good!

i never planned out a drying chamber.. so i converted a couple boxes easily with some twine and ductape.. i put boxes in the closet where my flower room is in(dark area) temps and humidity are pretty nice in there..


since this thread delets my posts, i have put together a little collage of miss Blue along the way, my first time! she smells good, and her nugs feel dense, so im hoping she tastes and feels good! I got a good handful of 1in x 3in nugs, and lots of small stuff.

This plant went through a roller coaster ride with me, but she made it all the way through, and made offspring! and she roots soooo fast compared to my PK going, but PK is a queen herself alone..

ok, here ya goo..

btw,, she was grown in FFOF soil.. had an abusive nute schedule early veg stages, and had mostly water throughout her flower life..

SO i am going to be doing a documented feed on my ladies from here on out. Today i gave my 4 bcz 1/4 strength feed, they each took just a little under 1 liter of water each plant.


for every gallon (4 liters) water, i used:

Technaflora: (%25) of rec dosage
4 ml BC Boost
4 ml BC Bloom
4 ml SugarDaddy
1 ml Awesome Blossom
1 ml Thrive Alive B-1 Red
1 ml Magical

Advanced Nutrients: (%25) of rec dosage
1 ml Connoisseur Part A
1 ml Connoisseur Part B


i really like how the new blues are turning out! i have a feeling they are going to turn extremely yellow again though.. i wonder what i could do to help.. or if she may just be a lemon :p

Looking good , that 3rd pick looks awsome !
I can't wait to see the flowers !!

you dont see them ??? jk

i think these are going to be BEAUTIFUL flowers!

you like how theres about 6 nice colas on each plant? the thickness of them are pretty similar to my PK thats nearly finished....

im in loveeeeee
 
I have a LST going , I also lolly poped and LST another plant I have ,
I hope to have some good looking colas like yours !!
thats a nice lookin strain !!
 
Tried to make some babies again.. this time im really spicing (heating) things up..

I will not let my water temps drop below 80 deg. keyyy

Took approximately 6-4inch Purple Kush clones, shaved them up really nice, 45 deg cut. Sanitized my entire cloner/tubes/airstones

tried to stop all new growth by cutting all little sprouts out..

Really trying to tell these ladies to root!!!1.jpg2.jpg3.jpg4.jpg5.jpg40g.jpg32+8g.jpg32g.jpg
 
Nice , you should have a 99% success rate !Your buds look good , i dry in a paper bag also
I hang the whole plan upside down for 2 days then bag it !!
Thumbs
 
cloning info:

6 - Purple Kush
%100 Humidity in dome at the moment, (until roots show, then i will let more air in)
Air temps: 80 deg
Res temps: 80-85 deg (last check was 82 :] )
ooo, i see my friend Ecips post this everywhere: PHd water at 5.5 :] (first time trying this, makes a bit of sense though, all the hydro setups run low PHs)
1-13 watt cfl that is about 2 ft away from humidity dome, i will move light closer to plants as days go by..
cuttings about 4 inches in length, each containing about 2 - 3 sets of leaves, cut out all new growth shoots.
Shaved bottom inch of stems, also gave them a 45 deg cut after.
