So much for taking some time off after the last batch. Thinking I want to have a bit of a Sativa around since the Fucking Incredible from the last batch leaves me like this:


Picked up 3 X Chernobyl and 2 X Fruit Punch clones and have them under an LED for the first couple days then will switch in the 400W MH. Same Ebb and Flow as I did with the Fucking Incredible r2 grow.

Don't plan on vegging these out to long since I want to try to miss the hottest part of the summer.

Outside temps got a bit crazy here, up into the mid 90s, so I had a bit of a temp spike up to 91 during lights out.

First 2 are Fruit Punch:



These are the Chernobyl:

Can't wait to see how both FP and Chernobyl come out. Love my FP and want to try Chernobyl. (from TGA?) And your FPs originally from Heavyweight Seeds?

I got them both as clones, so not sure which breeder they are from. As always with cuts, I just need to take it in good faith that they are what they say they are. I have gotten clones from this dispensary before, and the genetics are generally solid. My last batch of clones, from a different source, had a hermi tendency so I wont be using them again.

Here we go after a week under the MH, camera is making it yellow, but it really is MH:

The Chernobyl are more vigorous so far filling out nicely. The Fruit punch are a little behind, lets hope they're a grower, not a shower.

FYI on Fruit P after 4 grows. She's a very, very heavy feeder, more than any indoor girl I've known. She'll also grow in nice spurts to let you know what she likes. My gals love EWCasting teas - shoot up 3" to 6" in 72 hours after tea time.

Thanks, certainly seems so. Just a few days ago before upping my PPM I thought the FP would be the runts, but they shot up what seems overnight. They are not as full as the Chernobyl, but nice thick stalk.

Yup, FP is a very thick, rigid stemmed, strong plant. Gave me a bit of trouble my first couple of rounds b/c she's hard to LST after a while. Stems are just too rigid. I've played around with a few different training methods and found that topping her twice, then gently bending (not tying) down the 4 main stalks every day for 2 weeks then just letting her go works best in my set up. With no training or topping you will get a very nice big main cola (see pics). I've got 3 in flower right now. I'll post pics tomorrow of my girls.

Happy growing!!!

My last couple runs have been heavy Indicas, and I am looking forward to the much easier task of harvesting a Sativa dominant batch with giant colas :)

thats my thoughts exactly on e&f its easiest as far as im concerned as long as you watch your ph. & dont get your nutes too hot for the girls theyll do the rest i use a coco perlite blend in 2 gal smart pots & flood once a day over the last couple of years there has been some variation but pretty much what has worked for me i used to use rockwool slabs i havent tried hydroton except for in the small baskets in a bubbleponic set up i use gh 3-part flora series nutes & the keep it simple schedule

8 days since flip. Was out of town for a few day, which made me a bit nervous since I just flipped, but I love coming back to see the change. Overall my PPM stayed the same(1050) over the 4 days, and they drank about 6 gallons.
