I use a spray bottle to water my plugs, so there is an inevitable misting... Like once a week. And I mist them really well right after cutting...



And I've hacked shitloads of clones successfully after a week of flowering. I tried it one time, when I was cleaning up the stretch undergrowth, I just cloned the good ones.
 
I am giving a friend some in week three.. For a reveg.. And I am seriously thinking about revegging mine for moms for outdoor's simply because I know the growth rate now.. Of course I will lose three weeks but the reveg always comes back stronger... And I will have a male by then, so It will be a breeding journal.. lol.. even with back crossing... maybe even a lil cuben....j/k

Re-veg is a lot of stress, I've only done it twice...

Personally, I'd only do it to save genetics that would otherwise be lost, if I had clones, I'd just grow them out. :leaf:

Slight update on the harvest...

The Blueberries are completely dried, and curing...

Total harvest weight 17.5 ounces ~ 500 grams ~ one 600W HPS.


Extremely cerebral high, out-of-body type stone... I smoked a whole pack of Dutch Masters panetelas watching Choke, and Pulp Fiction... 5 blunts to the head in a row, I was blunted to say the least... I couldn't get up, and when I did, I went straight to bed and slept for 14 hours.

----------


The 9Miles are all cut down, and drying...

----------



The Super Skunks need another week or so... Today is day 56... They're getting massive... At least 3 ounces per plant.

In the book it's supposed to be a 50 day strain, I'm guessing I have a predominantly skunk phenotype...


----------


The Silver Mango is looking magnificent! I'm really excited about it's genetics, of the 4 phenos I bloomed one is extremely interesting, it's a perfect blend of the two strains scents, and quite the producer, hardly any leaf to calyx. Massive buds.

It's on it's final week, can't wait to smoke it.





I'll upload some pics later on tonight, if not tomorrow... Needless to say, I've been quite busy lately.

Yeah, thanks man...

And for the smoke report... :bigjoint:


To be completely honest, I don't see that much difference in the weed using the FF soluables vs. The Hornby products...

And at 60 bucks for the complete FF soluable setup, vs Hornby's products costing a grand... IDK what to tell you.


It smokes a bit more harsh, but then again, I'm growing from seed, and haven't smoked this exact pheno.


I'm going to head over to a buddies who uses the entire Hornby line, he's as good as me, my protegé... And I'm gonna burn him down and see what he thinks.

Get a true unbiased opinion.


But all in all, it looks like my weed...


In a close knit community, you can tell who grew what, by the way it looks... (Quality, nutrients, the way it burns, and mostly how it's trimmed.)

Trimming is like a signature, I can easily pick my weed, and three of my friends out of a pile and tell you who grew what... And since I know what they grow, I could also tell you what strain it is.


This happened to me Friday night... I was at some dude I know's place and he had some shit from a guy I know... It's not good at all, he's just lazy, and doesn't have the horticulture know how... It's larfy and leafy.


It was funny because he didn't even want to smoke his weed with me once he saw my blueberry, he apologized for packing it in the bong... That's one that's gonna make it's way back to the grower :evil: :lol:

Oh... And for those who don't know, or haven't grown Blueberry, it's not quite the producer of other strains...


The skunks will easily breach the pound per light mark.

Hay MHM very cool journal 1 of the best i've read in a long time.

i'm just getting things ready for my next soil grow, i was looking at the AN nutes and was thinking of going for somthing like this.


Organic Iguana Juice Grow
Organic Iguana Juice Bloom
Grandma Enggy's H2 (Humic Acid)
Grandma Enggy's F1 (Fulvic Acid)
SensiZym or Hygrozyme
Piranha
Tarantula
Voodoo Juice
Big Bud Liquid
Carbo Load Liquid

what do you think, anything else you would add?

:clap:for the grow
 
I have grown some that had been crossed with blueberry (TRC's blue 13 x Tx Misha) not a huge yeilder but very dense buds..
The main guy I get my cuts from usually runs mostly sativa's.. Which I like But they lack the flavor I look for.. I like sweet berry, sugary, leaves the mouth tasting FROSTED in sweet candy like goodness.. While my guy like's the sour's.. I hate the sour's..

I would trade a low yield plant that produces dense nugs. Then a high yield fluffy plant any day of the week...

;-)

That's a good regimen hargys... Thanks...


There were 6 blueberries under one 600W, they yielded 17+ ounces... So almost 3 ounces per plant.

I imagine the superskunks will yield about the same per plant, but they are smaller, and I have 9 per light... So my guesstimathmatical assumption is around 27 ounces on one 600W light... That's the high end, 18 being the low end... Still over a pound per 600W not per plant.


And yes, the blueberries are very dense.

SUPRISE SUPRISE!!!


The 9Mile is all dried up and trimmed, curing as we speak.


Total weight, 18+ from 7 plants, and 10 more ounces from 4 plants on half another light. So 28 ounces on say 900W... Not bad.


The buds are frosty dark and skinny, with a hash plant/floral aroma... The smoke is hazy, and floral... Has a similar smoke and smell to Super Silver Haze, but looks nothing like it... Definately a tropical landrace...

I crossed it with Super Skunk, so...


I'll find some beans...

and have some genes... :leaf:

SOunds sweet MHM, I havn'tbeen around the last few days, but it sounds like you've been very busy. I'm hoping to be getting a clone of some DJ short blueberry in a couple months, can't wait to get her going. I'm just tryin to get mine to take off at the moment. I think I'm almost there. My plant count is gonna drop cus of time constraints, but that will just mean higher yeilds off the plants I have hopfully from more veg, less stress. I don't know, but yours are lookin great man +rep! TC
