Hey stinkbuds, ive been running the veg formula with sweet in the flower room for the first 3 weeks like stink and the plants love it!

I noticed some of my blueberry that have been in flower for 5 weeks started to claw a little. (1st pic) ive been running them at 2000ppm. the temps and humidity are dialed in perfect so im thinking it must be too high of nutes. I dropped the ppms to 1800 just now.

what do you think?
I think you made the right call. Overall - the crop is bumping!

OG looks sweet! Lion! Im right behind you, ive got a whole cloner filled (14) with sfv og.. its been 9 days and they havent popped yet but they will.
I'm moving a rooted batch to veg tonight! I started 21 - and all are ready... flower batch 3 will be all OG!

ps..i made some cannabutter this weekend and my cookies
and 7 layer double fudge brownies are ass kickers!
Yeah - I love having some butter... just on crackers with jelly is how I roll! haha

Cookies and brownies are actually my fav... anybody know how they make the ice cream? Brownies with ice cream on top - the best! ...finish it off with chocolate/hash sprikles...:hump:

Hey man, they're right there in with all the other pvc fittings at any hardware store. You cant miss them. (I know, easy for me to say.) Just ask for 1/2" pvc to 3/4" threaded garden hose adapter.

i thought it was that easy too, i even took pictures into home depot. im gonna try some local small hardware shops but most of them are pretty old and not wheelchair accesable for me to get inside.

Try calling the HDW store first.
Like Mike says "ask for 1/2" pvc to 3/4" threaded garden hose adapter."

Or that you want to go 1/2" PVC to a garden hose. They all have this part.

Good Luck!

Sorry, couldn't find a home depot sku, but this is what you want.

PVC Hose AdapterPVC swivel hose adapter is designed for use with 1/2 In. schedule 40 PVC Outdoor Mist Systems or wherever a connection is needed between a standard garden hose thread and PVC pipe. The hose adapter has a slip fitting and requires PVC cement for watertight operation, but is easily applied following the directions given on the PVC cement container.

hey stinkbuds
can anybody tell me a good ppm meter mine is a peace of SHIT i try to cal. it and its just SHIT
Another option is pH strips... I've gone through TWO relatively expensive pH meters... calibrations either never keep or are completely out of whack. Yes, I followed the directions... Either you need a really expensive model (in my opinion) or you are doomed for problems... since then I switched to pH strips and have been loving it. I get nice ones off ebay--need a link send me a pm... most of the aquarium strips are a rip-off and/or are in the wrong range...

I am still working on converting to the flower systems but do use the nutes and cloner. I am just copying and pasting from my journal because I am a lazy stoner. Hope it makes sense if not either read the journal or enjo the pictures anyways.:joint:


Well, I just realized I didn't take a picture of the new A/C. I will try to remember tomorrow.

I do have pictures of the Regenerated Happy Daze progress. Look how the flower leaves have enlarged and fed the new growth which is coming along nicely. I will start some clones here in a couple weeks or so.

You can also see my Blue Berry Mother, Bubble Gum Mother, and my California Orange Bud Mom.

I am also including pics of the rooting taking place right now in the cloner.

You can see the 14 Bubble Gums that are at day 46 and just got their first flush tonight with pure water. In 2-3 days I will do that again and then 2-3 days again with water and Botanicaire Sweet! It will be harvested on the 15th. Another wave of clones will go in on the 22nd. The next wave may be clones and all of the Cross Projects! We will see!

You can also see some smaller potted plants off to the side of the Bubble Gum which are 3 Blue Berry Feminized and a California Orange Bud Clone. It will be the first time I have flowered it other than to sex it.

I am really going to try and add another 1000 HPS and another yield master air cooled hood as well as a 400MH by July 1st.

I will give details on the number of specimens for each of the crosses we did with the Blue Berry Femization Project as well as what they are and when they were started. Now to go medicate.:bigjoint:

You can harvest the top buds and leave the bottom ones to finish up over a week or so.

Just keep flushing them with Sweet.

You can also just go ahead and harvest them. Make some quality bubble hash out of the popcorn. It's kind of like making diamonds out of coal!

The sooner you harvest everything, the sooner you can get your next batch into flower.

When I take my veg plants into flower I pull the lower leaves and stems off of the plant. I don't end up with a lot of popcorn buds that way.

I use the lower branches for my new clones.

1000W lights are not as efficient as 600W lights but they do have better light penetration. 3-1000W lights give my plants a massive amount of lumens. Not to mention there is virtually no dark areas.

The plants really love the mix of MH and HPS lights together. I keep my new flowering plants under the MH for the first 3 weeks. I'm also trying my veg formula at 2400 PPM to see what happens.

The MH is helping keep the stretch down on the new flowering plants.

The more I use Sweet, the more I love it! I've been using 450ml in my mix lately. My last batch is the best bud I've ever smoked in my life! Everyone is trippin' out over the taste. It's like candy, I shit you not!

I want to try the Citrus formula and see if it makes my strains taste different. Or maybe even a mix of the berry and citrus together?
do you have a new rescipe? Are you using sweet with just flower or veg too? and do you mean your adding 450ml sweet to the mix durring flower. Im pc chair locked rt now. lol. thanks:peace:

:shock:oh god I did it again! That's how you know it's working hehe. Blue Cheese, by the way. Well.. bubble anyway. If it doesn't bubble it isn't worth the trouble ;) organic ice makes something nice.

Well... I just have a cheapo TDS meter for my ppm measurements. It has worked fine... no problems whatsoever. Its the Sunleaves TDS Pen.. you can google search/shop for it the price fluctuates from ~$25-40.
