Ultimate Moonshine

first off i would like to thank JLP for his generosity and Billygoat i hope that your doing well man hang in there.....

ok so here we go
i use the rubber plugs for germ and popped 4 beans in and into a dry dark warm spot and in 24 hrs i had 4 nice little babies,i leave them till i have about an inch of tap out of the bottom and then into buckets and under a shop light for 2 days and then a 175 MH for 3 days and on to the c-13 400mh/hps where they are now

nuets are GH 3 part mixed full strength from the time they hit the water and will saty FS till they show they can't handel it then i'll drop to 75% mix

light is 400 mh/hps supersun air cooled


at first when they popped they looked fine but as they got a little bigger i got a little worried as something looked a little out of place on the veins of the leafs were a dark color and i thought they were alredy showing signs of something and the stem of 1 was a very dark purple and after doing some research on the strains used for this cross i found JLP's report of Blue Moonshine at overgrow showing this was a common trait among the BM so no more worries and thank you JLP for documenting your grows and findings in the strian guide, i think that this is a lesson for all ...document and submit so when we do have questions the answers can be easily found like i did



here they are at 12 days from seed, UM1 puple from day one,funny the veins are all red and the stem and underside of the leafs are also



UM 2 same tub as of this morning the stem is now turning colors

UM 3 in tub 2 it's also showing signs of turning color

UM 4 the runt of the group when i chaned them out of the buckets i found out why the air stones were clogged and was just only getting just enough air to live so now that it's in the tub she's growing slow but if she does'nt catch up i'll move her to her own little lite

so here they are all tucked into thier new home and lovin the light,there is one fan blowing in and i'm not worried about heat steady 74 during the day and 70 at night and the doors stay open all the time

this weeks update

this weeks update

iit's now 19 days from seed 1 week later so I'll say first 7 days are seedlings and just call it at 12 days veg

here they are all nice and comfy ready for feeding time

UM1 and 2

UM3 and the runt

this is the color of UM 1 sorry for the blur but it's a new camera and still trying to figure it out


and back home
day 12 and day19 compair

Very Clean....

Very Clean....

Superb CAB man,
I love your set up, it's so clean compared with my Soiless growing. I love it, the popped seedling appart from 1 look terriffic Perhaps you have inspired me to go Hydro Turbo NFT. I ordered an NFT months ago and cancelled at the last moment. It looks like I may purchase a system like yours soon. Good luck with the grow and looking forward to your future updates...

thanx for stopping by hashasin,i just try to keep it simple and keep it clean and it's just a couple of rubbermaids is all there is to it i'm looking at an NFT myself but this works just fine for now

ok so its now day 25 and they have taken off nicely,the runt is starting to catch up with it's siblings they are responding well to the nuets i was a little worried that the blueberry side of it would be a little finicky but so far not the case
there is a little leaf damage on #1 if you look at the pic full size you'll see some yellowing due to me giveing them a misting when i put them under the big light and the magnifying effect took place other than that they be doing well
i have also found an intruder seems i have security gaurd on duty,i found him on patrol he runs up and down all the leaves on each plant making sure the area is secure

Super Clean cabinet and setup, i like it

looks like they are starting to go in full swing.

nice and clean

day 31

day 31

hey HOG thnx for stopping by.

they seem to really like the nuets,the runt is just about caught up and i left that one un- topped for now. the rest have been topped at the 4th node,pinched and tied dwn. it looks like #1 has shown his stuff and will be removed to his own light in a couple of days,this was the one that shown purple from day 1 ,as did the runt. hopefully the rest are girls we'll know by the end of the week
this is before

and after




#3 and the runt



a little bondage never hurt

Looking very good buzzerd! (yes)

Loved the tiddyness and cleaniness of your box, all white ahhhh!

Mine's all messy, even my mom freaks with the soil lying around..

"ah the soil.." - u say.. hehe

Very nice setupbuzzerd, looks like you’ve made good use of the space that you have, good job.

thanx for dropping by Bush & BigToke,
they are starting to take off now damn leaves are huge will post pics this weekend when i do a water change , of the 4, i had 1 male the rest are confirmied ladies with 2 phenos,2 are almost exactly the same leaf structure and growth pattern,then 1 looks to have a more blue moonshine influence with the twisted leaves and growth patten

bong hits to all ......buzzerd

day 8 flower

day 8 flower

this is the first week of flower day8 the line up has changed now:

UM #1 was a male and was very symetrical in growth and leaf structure and was purple from day one and a stinky bastard ,a keeper to be sure but due to the holidays there's just no way i can do it so off he went

UM #2 was topped at the fourth node and all branches were pinched and tied dwn and was in her own tub aftr #1 was removed and just took off a good 2 inch's of stretch i had to remove the 2nd set of lower fan leafs had to be done,i want some air in there and they are way to big they block alot of light
again the leaf structure and growth patern are symetrical from leaf to leaf,no missing fingers. there's now some leaf twisting and curling starting to happen to the older leaves and i'm attributing this to the bluberry bkgound









UM #3 was topped and NOT pinched or tied dwn and did not take well to it , stunted the hell of it so we'll see what happens this week 3 is on the left and the runt on the right





UM #4 the runt ,not any more it was left untopped and not pinched it was just to small till now,i tied the lower branchs down and that's all
growth pattern is again very symetrical structure both in leaves and branches the leaves are huge and will need a trim next week





the biggest change is that i have now switched nuets over to GH FLORA series 1 part,this stuff is like mud so this week i will be getting TDS and PH monitors added and a freaking paint can mixer to shake this stuff up wth LOL it's that thick and i have also moved them into 5 gal bkts for the extra room even at 1 week flr they may get to big for the c-13 and i might pull them and hit them with a 1k these are big fat indica shade leaves

so before change:

and after:


enjoy the pics and Merry Christmas to all........buzzerd
