that plant would be an EXCELLANT candidate for femminizing, ...any plant that can withstand that kind of environmental stress is very unlikely to carry any hermie trait into it's femminized beans.
So we got 2 bozo's now that grow coco hempy's lol.
Great to have you onboard BOZO.
...yeah, CS can be a pain to work with, ...have you tried the silver theosulphate method? ...i believe it's more expensive to buy the chemicals and that it's somewhat more toxic so more care needs to be used when mixing it BUT, it only needs to be applied once for it to be effective, ...or so i understand, i've only ever used the CS method myself and while it was a pain, it does work.
thanks man and while i've never used the perl/verm mix, i discovered in my research that 'hempy' himself had upgraded to using coco rather than continue with the perl/verm mix, ...i like to do a LOT of research when i'm thinking of making changes and in this case i decided to go with the coco because it seemed to be a superior choice. (if you're interested i can link you to that thread but i'm pretty sure hempy is no longer active in it.
Ive moved on from Perl/Verm too. I still think its a great substrate but I wanted to try something different. I'm using 'Mapito', which is 'Rockwool flock and Coco fibers'.
That certainly is a very 'damn fine closet' Super tidy. That 'Wall of Weed' setup you have got going is just FANTASTIC. Ive not seen anything like it myself. Its definitely a first for this thread to see Hempys trained in such a way.
you're very welcome man and here is a link to the original W.O.W. thread where i learned about the technique and while Marlo doesn't grow hempys, he is a gifted grower with some very innovative ideas, ...for example his yoyo light-mover made from a common garage door opener.
hey bozo, welcome to WOH, that is nice work yougot going on there, what sort of yield will you generally pull from a 600w on the wall?
im finding the brick coco much better than the bag stuff, i have been getting the stuff that's washed with calcium nitrate but i have been rinsing the hempy out anyway to flush the perlite res, there is literally no brown run off at all,the bag stuff was actually taking longer to flush clear than the un-buffered bricks, i may now start and rinse the perlite before i fill the bottle and save a job!
thanks man but like i said, i'm in a new space and nowhere near dialed in yet, i'm only on the third cycle and i'm a week away from harvest so i can't give you any actual numbers but i'd guestimate this run will be just about a pound, maybe a bit more. ...once dialed i expect to up that to maybe 20 - 24 zips per cycle, ...my target number for now is 1.5 zipz per plant times 11 plants and that works out to 16.5 zipz, ...i honestly expect i'll be up around 2 zipz per by the next run or the run after.
i've actually never used anything but the bricks, both GH and Botanicare, and i love them.
...lol, yeah buddy! Marlo is one clever dude!
Some of these places use Automatic trimming machines. Makes bud look even but wastes a bit of the bud. .... That's what it looks like to me from another continent.
I still got 29 hr's in my time zone. 28 if you adjust for the Mayan time zone.
they are humbolt, i have 1 reserva privada og which stretched too much but turned out quite well and smells a lot better, this humbolt really hasn't impressed, its good stuff but i read that og is really powerfull, i hope the stretchy 1 is a beast of a smoke like it should be
So, I have another Bozo to share clown suits with...welcome to our Hempy brotherhood Bozo! Actually I'm not much of a clown unless you look at my hair in the morning when I get up. I chose my avatar based on Firesign Theather's "I Think We Are All Bozo's on This Bus" done back in 1971. They are a group of radio guys that did albums of weird skits that only stoners could listen to and understand. The sound effects were simple horns and squeak toys but somehow they made it through to us in our 70's "fog".
