I just couldnt take it anymore

[akhockey]

I still havent gotten around to photos yet. Sure I will when theres some budporn. One of my WW looks kinda masculine and so far I only had 1 fem out of the 4 auto beans that germed. I just took cuts of everything after topping a week ago. In a couple more days I'll be flipping the 12/12's and waiting to see whats what. Im looking forward to getting back into hydro mode. Its so much easier than soil. (when you have cuts to take)

 

[akhockey]

FLIP!!! It looks like I have a boy WW and a girl too! All my 12/12's flipped today under a 600w hps and I fired up the 400w hps for the 2 auto girls. I have alot of space left under the 400 so I put some more auto beans in rockwool. I want to warm up my pH meter with a little DWC action before my cuts root and get put into the E n F under the 1000w. Ill snap pics tomorrow. Promise!

Finally I took some pics. First is the 2 Snow Black autos. They look to be much more Onyx dom than that of their Snowryder mommy. Cuts, soon to root. The Kandy Kush has some fat ol leaves on her. I loves me some fatties. Last, after removing the villanous WW male from the group, we have, starting clockwise with the little pipsqueak on the left: Pineapple Chunk, White Widow, PC again, Kandy Kush, and a DNA Lemon Skunk. 3 gallon grow bags, water only SS mix.

They are looking very healthy ak -- good work so far -- nice genetics!

looking great man, good luck in the flower stage.

Thanks all. i am really hoping for a good WW pheno. I was pretty sad when I let my last one go. She was a great yielder and dankity dank smoke. I have high hopes for everything else too. I feel like I need some Larry OG in my room though. Im waiting until the Oct Tude offer fires up them Im going to order up a pack for the next run.

 

[akhockey]

Oh heck yeah I want that mixed pack. I just want the G-13's too! I LOVED their Blueberry Gum. huge bubblegum smelling nugs finished in 60 days and cloned easily. Of course I dont know that I would ever have the time spce or energy to run the freebies Lol I just want them for future. Im a hoarder

I was checking my cuts this morning for signs of roots and have a Lemon Skunk and a PC showing a couple of roots already. That is by far the fastest I have seen any rootage in my experience. 6 days since being cut. I switched to Hormex powder vs the Olivias gel that I had been using before. Maybe its more the strain? Idk but Im happy to see them. Hopefully in a couple more days there will be a bunch of roots blasting out of them and I'll fire up my tubs. I did after all spend half a day cleaning hydroton last weekend. Im hoping to have a couple of good cuts left over to run in the micro-grow thread.

No HPS while shooting pics! Lets us see the lushness. Or non lushness in some cases.

Yeah Ok next time that I have time right at lights off Ill get some no HPS photos. They are pretty lush just not super tall. I flipped these pretty short since they are from seed and I have no idea what they are going to stretch like. I dont have alot of headroom, only 5 feet ceiling to floor, which leaves me about 3 feet of workable space to grow plus or minus.

 

[akhockey]

Heres a few new photos.
Pics 1 and 4 are my Snow Black autos one at 33 days the other at 26 days
Pic 2 auto babies in DWC pH 5.8 ppm unknown. My batteries are dead in my ppm meter. I usually add a touch of nutes to babies like 200 ppm
pic 3 Lemon Skunk
Pic 5 Kandy Kush
pic 6 Pineapple Chunk....shes stretching a bit
pic 7 cuts first day without the dome. A couple are rooted well and the rest should be blasting them out soon.

October attitude special. Check. Larry OG ordered. Check. Cali Mix pack and a ton of other freebies. Check. I was kind of bummed to see that they changed the UFO freebies a couple of days ago. I was looking forward to the Dinafem Amnesia and G-13 Blue Venom. But Oh well. Ive got some Cali fire ordered up and a couple of G-13 Blueberry Gums as well. I really liked growing the BBG. I see a new GJ in the works soon. But on to what happened in the current op. Today I put the clones that were well rooted into the Ebb tubs. ATM there is a lone lemon Skunk (which is weird it was the first to show roots at 6 days, but only the only one out of 4 so far) sitting in one tub and 2 out of 4 P Chunks and 2 out of 4 Widows in the other. They have cfl's on them now set at 20/4 to coincide with the autos running next to them. So far still no roots on the Kandy Kush....yet. Im going to run 6 plants per tub for a total of 12 scrogged under my 1000w lamp.

 

[akhockey]

Yeah I dont know why I wanted or was worried about the freebies so much. I wont be able to grow them all! I think theres gonna be some keepers in the Cali stuff. Heck I dont even know what I have running now will end up like yet. I havent started from seed in a long time. I may havesome fire in the works already.

 

[akhockey]

Ok today was like Christmas. When I checked on my cuts ALL of them were blowing roots. I filled up my ebb tubs with 2 of the more robust PC 4 WW 3 KK and 3 LS. Ive got them on cfls for a couple more days to get their roots established a little better before blasting them with the 1000w. Running the gear with GH Lucas Formula at 5.8 pH and starting off with 700ppm+\- pics soon. I also fired up my mini dwc for the micro grow thread.

 

[akhockey]

Pics The first three is the clones new home. Last 3 are snow blacks autoing away. Bud size seems to noticeably increase daily pretty much one is 39 days and the other is 32 ish.

 

[akhockey]

12/12 girls have stretched a bit. Hopefully they are done or Im going to run out of room. I wasnt seeing any sort of deficiencies but did a little top dressing on everything anyways with a super hot batch of SS. Its been cooking a week and a half and still had alot of heat in the can. straight water with moles asses every other watering. Easy peasy.

 

[akhockey]

Lit the 1000w above the ebb tubs today. Went with the dual arc (hps/mh) bulb to veg them for a couple of weeks at 20/4 before flipping. The gals in the flower tent have stretched alot. The WW has started flowering decently but the rest dont look very exciting so Ill hold off on taking pics for a couple days.

 

[akhockey]

Random pics.
Autos bulking up nicely.
Autos waiting to show sex.
The ebb n flow show. WW PC KK and LS. All of the moms are stretching about the same so Im hoping I can do a little pinching and poking here and there.
The soon to be flowering room. When the ebb girls are ready to flip Ill move the autos and whatever I have vegging into the tent and finish up their moms next to them.
Hopefully my Larry and friends show up soon. Im going to have to get creative for room.

 

[akhockey]

Did a Res change on my ebb girls today. Probably the last one for awhile. I like running Lucas. I just add water and bump up the nutes when my ppm's drop. My pH stays really constant aroun 5.7. I also yanked the 2 smaller auto seedlings since the bigger 2 appear to be female. One shows pistils but the other doesnt have balls yet and usually by now they would have shown up. They went into square 4 gal. DWC buckets to make a little room for the extra Pineapple chunk clones that have been sitting in the 6" pots. They went into 3 gal grow bags with some hot SS and FFOF. Checked on the moms in the flower tent and they all look good. Nothing really photo worthy at 3 weeks in. YET! Everything in soil got hit with moles asses today too. I expect my Larry beans today or tomorrow. They are in town according to the tracking number. I'll be popping a few of them soon too.
I figure Ill be re arranging everything next week as I'll likely be flipping the ebb girls then. Snowblacks should be done in a couple weeks and Ill have some room for the Larry's and whatever else I decide to pop.
