May11ths thread of all sorts of nonsense

[SxIstew]

Have you seen my Spyder Trichomes pictures floating around RIU yet? Less than two week till the chop...

 

[May11th]

Ill look it up right now . Your avatar looks great what is that? I've never heard of spyder either, whats the lineage?

 

[SxIstew]

My avi is G13 Labs Auto AK

Spyder from Black Creek Gardens
Autoflower 10 week plant life
And this is from the breeder CannedAbyss himself

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]A sativa pheno Lowryder male was crossed with a very potent white pheno Sputnik 2.0 female, from these came a very resinous purple sativa pheno sputnik 2.0 x Lowryder f1 female that was then crossed with a sativa pheno Sputnik 2.0 x Lowryder f1 male. In the f2's there were 3 AF's out of about 40 plants, 1 sativa pheno male and 2 sativa pheno females (1 was purple the other white). Both were pollinated but the purple was more impressive so that is what was worked with. In the f3's there were 12 AF's out of about 40 plants, 9 females and 3 males. The nicest male which was a purple pheno pollinated the 9 females which were also all purple phenos. Approximately 100 seeds from the f4's were grown out, chosen from the 2 nicest females. 100% of the f4 plants auto-flowered within 21 days from seed (the pics are f4's). A sativa pheno male (also purple) pollinated about 20 females. Currently the f5's taken from the best females are being worked with[/FONT]

Your grow is looking great, but a little bit of organization should help you pull bigger harvests

I need to get this up and going. I think I will start tomorrow, cloning blueberry and carmelos, I been really busy lately but should slow down soon. Hows everyone doing?

Ps I just got some strawberry cough, blue dream and mr.nice from a friend that found them in michigan medicinal. Great source too so I hope I can germ them. I plan to get some more genetics in too. Hard to decide.

 

[May11th]

Just put my blueberrys out with my mother plants which I need to clone off of ASAP to get heigth down again. Under a 600w digital , I hope these blueberrys stay short and bushy. Ill get better pics tomorrow , crazy busy lately.

Went to hydro store today and chatted with the owner, I told him all my issues and I think I may be sampling some canna nutes and straight coco, im not getting the tight sticky buds id want because im very disappointed , very. I see so much nice stuff on here then I look at my plants and think wtf, I just want a solution because I try to grow the best I can.

You're buds look a lot better than that cluster fucked grow room lol. Tons of ways to get buds more sticky icky gooey ooey ooo wee. Molasses feedings, mixed spectrum (do you have an MH or blue CFLs you can throw in), lowering humidity to make buds "want to keep moist", good nutes of course, reptile light will make plant produce more trichs for protection against UV, good genetics which I think you have, and I don't know if this is true but I've heard people doing a 48 hour dark period before chop..gotta look into that one. Oh and I don't know if you already mentioned this, but are your buds ripe enough? Lovin the sig BTW.

They are 4 weeks in from showing sex, yeah its a huge clusterfuck lol I need to get shit moved but I been really busy with other matters. Im going to go get supplies tomorrow but so far my flower regime consist of:

1000 watt hydrofarm ac setup/mag ballast
600 watt magnum xxxl / galaxy digital ballast
All kinds of diff soils w super soil now making its debut, all organic soil or coco.
I have 2 32 gallon trashcans setup w airstones for waterings.
I have fishbonemeal, oyster shell flour, bloom bat quano, kelp meal, alfalfa meal, feather meal, fox farms soil conditioner , roots organic organism xl, azomite, general organics rare earth, if you think I should ad something let me know. Im all about getting better and I have alot of improving to do. Im very happy with my new blueberry plants that are in my supersoil, they look happy and heres a leaf from one of them, they are now in 3 gallon grow bags and a foot tall now.

Sounds good. Nice diversity. Soil buffet. However, alfalfa I use in teas only. Stuff seems too make hot spots in soil. Might want to ask the big boys bout that one. How many times can you curl that magnetic ballast lmao. What breeder of blueberry?

I agree. That's one if in soil, you want to let cook. It's kicks ass for veg growth in a tea. Just don't mix up your flower and veg teas

 

[May11th]

Thanks guys, ill follow that advice. See you guys later

 

[GandalfdaGreen]

I am finding that a well balanced tea the whole way through is kicking ass for me. I am not even going with veg or flowering teas. Remember it is just my way. I am finding I am lowering my fade with it. I stop everything with 3ish weeks to go.

 

[May11th]

Gandalf, could you explain your soils and teas please. I kike how healthy your plants look and the resin content is wonderful. I feel like im close to getting it but still far away lol im having fun though. I think I will only clone the blueberry and focus on it.

Redcarpetmatches, its bc bud depots blueberry regular seeds. So far very easy to grow, keeping it simple with them. Balanced veg super soil and straight water. Foliar spray every watering w aloe juice and they are happy happy happy. I never grown or taste bb but im excited.

My mix is the Rev's mix right now. I am not layering or spiking. My teas are very simple. I run Alfalfa, Kelp, and an all around like http://foxfarmfertilizer.com/index.php/item/happy-frog-all-purpose-fertilizer.html. I don't over do it. I bubble for 36 hours. I do the teas by ppm. Early is 300. Middle/up to last 3 weeks is 900. You'll get the feel. My water before the tea is 6.5 so I don't adjust the ph of the tea. I no longer adjust ph using my well water. The life in my soil will do that for me if need be. If I see a Ca/Mg issue I add some molasses. I believe in keeping it simple. I do use the all purpose peruvian guano too sometimes. i think the biggest thing is to get out of the plant's way. Don't over do things at all. Less is way more.

Okay thank you gandalf, for 32 gallons of water qhat would you recommend as a dose, I ususlly do .5 tsp per gallon with pretty much everything besides molasses and mycos, I deff dont want to overdo it and I think I did overdo the teas recently, because I saw sone leafs yellowing but now their yellow and burnt or brown spots, is this a phosphorus issue? I can't read the leafs yet tbh, usually when I run into a problem I ask for help and learn from it , I love the smells these ladies are starting to produce .

 

[May11th]

Thanks for the help guys, it means alot and I hope to be a help to you guys someday, if your ever in ohio hit me up lol

You can def overuse teas. Resist the urge. Just hang back and watch things unfold. I swear less is more. If you watch things close like your pistils, colors, etc., you will be fine.

so do you not use molasses in your teas regularly to feed the bacteria? Do you not add ewc or compost or vc?
