So Round 1 is down for the count and here we go with Round 2. This time I'll be rockin some Pre 98 Bubba, Bubba Kusn, CDS and in 5-6 weeks some more OG.

Some of the nutes have changed, I'll be using the House & Garden line and adding some others along the way. Plus in the next few weeks the room will be converted to a sealed room. This will take some doing but with your help I know I can do it.

So here's the new line up.

House & Garden
Coco A&B
Algen Extract (Seedlings & Veg) didn't use it because I didn't have it.
Roots Excelurator Used through week5
Drip Clean Veg - Flower
Magic Green Foliar once every other week. I may uase once a week.
Multi Zen Flower weeks 1-4
Bud XL Flower weeks 5-10
Top Booster Flower week 6
Shooting Powder Flower weeks 7-10

Other supplements
Vermi Tea Veg-Flower organics
Molasses Flower weeks 7-9

I may be be adding
Florolisious Plus Fulvic Acid
Diamond Nector Humic Acid
Cal Mag

So let me introduce the ladies.

1st up is Pre 98 Bubba Kush


Next we have Bubba Kush


And from last round making another appearence Chem Dawg's Sister


And a group shot of everyone.


So we're off and running and things are looking better. Plants look much healthier this time and will hopefully progress as we go along.

Farmers welcome back and thank you for all your help last round and any you give for this round.

I'm glad you could be here. Socachi

Time to post some feedings that have been done.

5/3/10 Week 1: A&B 6.5 of each, DC .4, RE 1.1, MZ 3.8, HZ 8, FP 1, ph 5.85, ppm 672

5/7/10 Week 1: A&B 6.5, DC .4, RE 1.1, MZ 3.8, CM 5, FP 1, VT 75, ph 5.8, ppm 1032

On the DC I think I may have given the 4 instead of .4 oops... I took out the HZ it's not needed and added CM.

5/10/10 Week 2: A&B 9, DC .4, RE 1.1, MZ 3.8, CM 5, FP 1, VT 75, ph 5.8, ppm 1070.

I bumped up the A&B week 2 calls for 7.5 or 10 if aggressive, they looked like they were wanting more so they got more. The ladies were thirstier, last week I fed with 4 gals and got about 1 gal runoff, this time I used 6 gal and got about a 1 gal runoff.

SG&FOG Week 5: PBPB 22, HZ 8, DN 5, PS 2.5, HP 1, FP 1, ST 1 D, CM 5, VT 75, MO 5, ph 5.85, ppm 1558

MOMS: PBPG 22, ST 1D, HZ 9, FP 1, PS 2.5, CM 5, MO 5, ph 5.85, ppm 1442

Yeah that is a kick ass system, you can make some trees with that system. Probably a couple pounds per plant the way he's growin.

Time for a pic update.

SG week 5



FOG week 5



An update of the new girls.

Table 1 week 2 Pre98 BK, BK, CSD



The BK in the right corner is bushy and as tall as the rest.

Trimmed the girls bottoms to open it up down there for better ventilation, increase the energy to the upper canopy and more vertical growth.

Before Trimming


After Trimming


Canopy Shot


I rearranged the plants so the dark area in the center is where the shorties are

This time I trimmed more than I had in the past to see if it adds more energy to the upper canopy which I believe it will from the different things I've read. At times I wonder if I'm taking too much, not enough; trying to find that happy medium.

Did a watering today
Week 2: RO ph 5.8, ppm 18

I also trimmed some upper fan leaves in hopes of getting better light penetration to the lower future buds. I usually haven't done this till week 8 but thought it might help. Any thoughts?

CJ thanks for stoppin in hope you stay around for the full show. Yeah that pre 98 is a son of a gun to hunt down but I finally did. Kept one as a mom for the future.

A little update on the grow. Had taken 40 OG clones on 5/7 for table 2 but left the heating pad on to long (need a thermostat for it) and the plugs got dry as a bone. So I tossed em all and I'll start over, just not sure when because of some time constraints. The girls in flower will be fed tonight

Had taken 40 clones of the OG 1&3 but while doing it I discovered some PM on one of the moms. So I sprayed all the clones down put em i the dome under a light with a heating pad and waited 5 days. Well the heating pad was on too long one day and fried many of the babies so I dumped em all. :noway: Note to self buy thermostat for heating pad.

Now I'm thinking of taking the 30 in flower on one tray and separating them over the two trays. I figure this way I can get the room sealed and start running two tables on the same schedule. I think it will also give better light penetration if they're not packed so tight. We'll see what happens. :dunno:

Feeding time for the ladies in flower. It's week 3 and going by the H&G chart A&B gets bumped up till week 7 after that A&B get backed off. I've been going closer toward the aggressive strength feeding chart, the girls seem to be handeling it pretty good so far.

Week 3: A&B 11, DC .4, RE 1.1, MZ 3.8, MO 5, VT 75, ph 5.8, ppm 1093. After talking with the rep for H&G I cut out the CM & FP. He says I shouldn't need either. We'll see. :watchplant:

Week 5 SG: PBPB 22,, HZ 8, DN 5, PS 1.25, FP 1, MO 5, AB 2. I forgot to ph the SG so it was really low ph 3.85, ppm 1385. Shouldn't hurt em just the one time. They didn't get any VT I ran out. Got a little space cowboy going on.

Week 5 ROG PBPB 22,, HZ 8, DN 5, PS 1.25, FP 1, MO 2 I ran out of this too, ST 1d, CM 5, ph 5.85, ppm 1529

Need to get to the store and pick up some molasses and I'm thinking of getting a 5 gal brick of Vermi Tea and brew it myself. Getting tired of going to the hydro store every week. I always get some good info while I'm there but it's a drive.

A little bud porn of the SG & FOG

FOG with the SG trying to get in on the pic


Some nute burn on the FOG



For some reason the auto flowering FOG put out a lot of single leaf for fan leaves. But the cola's are looking nice

Been a little busy lately working on sealing the room put up a 4x4 tent for the moms and veg and tore down the one diy mom veg room. Right now the moms are in the garage.

Here's a shot of the old mom/veg/clone area.


All torn down this is the back of flower


All the old poly will be trashed in case there's any PM lingering on.


This will be the new mom/veg/clone room a SunHut XL 4x4


Here she is put together, man that was an MF to do by myself. When the directions say 2 ppl they mean it. :whew


Picked up a hepa filter and gave the tent the Vegas treatment, if anything happens in here it stays in here.


After I got the tent all up I discovered pin size holes along the left upper seam. So I called the company and they said I have a defect. SO I get to do this all over again. :wallbash:

I still have more work to do. Put up foam panels around the room for insulation, cut an intake to vent the lights, cut an exhaust for the ac, take down and put up another tent. Need duct mufflers, another fan, co2, a hepa filter for the lights, larger tarp, maybe put up the light mover, the list goes on...
