Sorry to hear about the balls man. But it looks like nothing even started to swell or open. so I'll bet your still clean.

Yea, I am pretty sure Im still clean also.. I did double check my logs, and this clone WAS taken from the plant that hermied on me earlier, and considering I have not taken any clones from a plant in Flower, it sure is leaning towards GENETICS.. Crappy WORLD OF SEEDS product,, 4 Duds and a Genetic Hermie. I have 5 Clones that just went into flower also taken from the same plant, but today I am picking up some Dutch Masters REVERSE to see if that keeps the Hermie at bay.

Water day for the Girls,, Not much to report as they just keep packing on the weight.. One of them started to lean a little to one side, so I taped a Bamboo Stake to the bucket and propped her straight again. I also tied each Kola Stem to the one opposite from it, to keep them from falling outward any further.
Auto Northern Lights Blue is basically ALL Cloudy with a couple Ambers thrown in, so I think I will go ahead and harvest her this weekend. I dont really want that Couch lock effect, so I like to take them when they are just starting to get Amber Triches.
I also plan on Taking every Clone i can get off the Plants in Veg this weekend and toss the rest. These plants have really done well,, Look and Feel very healthy without any CalMag supplement so far,, Just the Bottle formula.
That's about it for this week.. From here on out, I will just be updating the Girls in Flower, up to harvest, and close this journal out. About 3-4 More weeks to go!!

Everything looks so healthy, great job man. Well you know me I have to throw in my 2 cents, and I know that the auto is past it's published date, but I'd wait until those protruding calyx receeded a little more.
It looks like you will have plenty of clone sites on those two girls.
Did you ever get a clone off that auto, or is that just not doable?

love the look of the northern lights!!!! nice work!
what i really dig about this is that there is no fuss no trimming all your leaves no doing "some new shit you just thought up because it sounds like it could work" just no fucking stupidity which i have been seeing allot of on here tonight!
cheers!

Yea, I have been debating myself about whether to let the Auto go a little longer, and probably will, although she doesn't seem to be doing much anymore. Just looks the same every day, But she will also be getting the lower section of the veg tent all to herself this weekend. Its gonna be another Cloning Saturday!!

On a side note, I am having a little difficulty with the 2 Liter Clones I put into flower. They are VERY Yellow, and I dont seem to be bringing them back to green.
My PPMs are at 400, which should be a No Brainer considering they have such a nice root system, but are also showing a little clawing here and there, and is just Confusing the Shit out of me. I want to give them more food, but also dont want to overdo it. I introduced a little CalMag into the mix yesterday. They are definitely growing and sprouting foliage, and stems look healthy, just overall YELLOW, a bit mottled on the leaves, and the leaves are just a LITTLE droopy (over watering?).
Anyway, I am a little stumped on this one and looking for a direction to take. Might work on changing up my nute mix a little and see if that helps. Right now I am watering every other day with these. Last clone in Perlite only, I was watering daily.

Well patience once again rules out.. The 2 Liter Clones Greened up late yesterday (Finally)! Whew, that was confusing the Hell out of me. Now we can get down to business.

3 Weeks To Go!!
Lets Do a Quick Update!
Girls in flower are doing fine.. I am seeing a little bit of Margin Burn. I am pretty sure its not nute burn considering they are only getting 1.0 EC at this point, I am thinking they are looking for some more Magnesium, cause I am also seeing the Margins turned up just a bit as well. So I am going to up the CalMag and see if that helps a little.
The 2 Liter Clones are coming along.. I think the transplant was a little rough on them. I will need to come up with a better way of getting them from the cups to the 2 liter without disturbing the roots as much. None the less they have greened up, popped pistils and are starting to flower. They are also now getting 1.0 EC
These are not all of them, but since they were out getting watered, I thought I would snap a quick pic.
I also Pulled the Auto Northern Lights Blue this morning. I trimmed the Fan leaves off, and she is now hanging in the dark with some oscillating fans starting the drying process.

2 Weeks to Go!!
I actually went ahead and Flushed the two girls really well a few days ago. I figured it couldnt hurt, and will probably start doing one good flush in mid flower just to clear away any unwanted salts, then finish them off with a moderate amount of nutes. Funny thing is the Fruity Chronic Juice's runoff was almost clear water, when the NLxBB runoff looked like I just mixed a batch.
Their hairs started turning amber color about a week or so ago, and I will begin to monitor Triches in the next week.
I have a bunch of clones taken last weekend, and will finish off the mothers later today, by getting every last clone off them, and thereby ending their lives. I also put two rooted clones into Cups today. They will veg and give up more clones in a few weeks, and the cycle will continue.
I am going to start a new Grow Journal for these Clones. They will ultimately go into hempy cups to grow out the roots a little, then a week later into 2 Liters, and right into Flower.

Had the girls out this morning cause I decided to add some Bamboo Stakes for a little Kola Support, and took some pics.

Well,, Still just waiting on the Girls to finish up. I have noticed the Top Sugar Leaves of the Fruity Chronic Juice are starting to get crispy and look like they are moving into their final days, so I am going to start cutting way back on the nutes at this point, and work on bringing them into harvest as soon as I can. Should be another week or two
I also had to bring in the dehumidifier,,, Our humidity spiked big time this last week, so now I am running the Air Conditioner and the Dehui,, UGGG.. Hopefully this weather will start chilling out here soon.

Harvesting Fruity Chronic this Weekend!! and will take the NLxBB next week... Good thing, cause I need the space!!
That will about wrap up this Journal. I have already used it quite a bit to go back and double check a couple of things, so its been handy.. I will weigh each harvest and see how I did, but it looks like I will yield just fine
.. Certainly comparable to my Hydro Runs, but stronger and less messy... Now onto the next grow!!

Thought I would throw up some final images and numbers. I went ahead and harvested both girls today, and they are stinky!
Fruity Chronic Juice came in at 14.5 ounces
Northern Lights x Big Bud came in at 15 7/8 ounces

Thanks for tagging along Watts!! and the advice

See you there!

Excellent thread. I'm about to do my first grow which will be a hempy. Invaluable information here. Im going to run straight perlite with a 1inch layer of hydroton on top. I am using GH nutes and was going to do the Lucas formula. It certainly appears that I will be needing CalMg! I get most of my stuff from Amazon. Will this work with Hempy? Will "organics" work with Hempy?

I am going to do a hempy scrog set-up as well. I haven't seen much info on those. Probably because it is hard to "lift up" a pot that is meshed into a screen to check if it needs watering.
Checking your new journal next. Again, so much good info in this thread. Thx.

Hempy's ROCK!! Glad you got something out of this Journal.
Yes, that GH CalMag+ will work just fine, and YES, I needed it with the Lucas formula.. I am now running the 3 Part Bottle Formula, just scaling it down so I dont burn my girls up.
Also starting my Hempy SCROG Next weekend.. The girls are in Hempy Cups now, roots hit the res, so another week and they can go into Buckets and onto the Flood table with a Screen. That will be about the time I pull my current 2 Liter run, so my timing is right on the money.
Oh and YES, organics will work with Hempy also!!!!
Good luck, I am sure you will be happy with it.
Thanks for the call on that cal/mg. (just to be sure, my link was not to a GH product. It is to a "Hyrdofarm" product) So from the sounds of it, you are just using the 3 bottle nute solution now? No longer going with Lucas Formula? Do you still need extra cal/mg if you are using the regular formula?
Btw, Im trying to find out how to send you a personal message but I don't see the option?
I am a first timer setting up an attic grow. It has been a hell of a project but I'm almost at go time. I am about 2 weeks away from germinating seeds. Here is a link to the "project." As you can see, I am in the learning curve:

I hope linking off site isnt frowned upon here. I was going to just send it via pm but I can't seem to..
