[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Plants are back on track

Bud development is looking very nice now

The next 2-3 weeks should be exciting and revealing

Today I replaced ~ 10 day old nutes (although topped off with fresh every morning) with fresh nutes, mixing...

~ 5gms of +Size
~ 180ppm Epsom salt (rounded tsp)
+ 500ppm V + B
~ 900ppm total

Both tents are looking real good now, although yield will be well off my norm

Pics by Sunday

It's encouraging to see how well both strains are fattening up

Plus, welcome 9 new babies, and help me focus on them being truer expressions of their parents - Big Mex and Blueberry Cheesecake
Babies are under the SS 260, somewhat shaded by the big sat

I like what you did using the net pot as a spreader... and egg carton (?) for the seeds.

 

[PetFlora]

Due to both tents being in flower mode with short day light hours, I had to move the seedlings to another tent where they could bask in ~ 14 hours of day light

I decided to take one of the two SS 150s, that were flowering the Blueberry Cheesecake plants, and put it over the babies in another tent

So one SS 150 is finishing the 4 BBCC whose combined canopy is ~ 2 x 3. 3 of them are pony dick colas, no side branching, so it works

Very observant of you

Made some light changes

Made some light changes

I wanted to start new seeds under a SS 150, so yesterday I replaced 1/2 SS 150s with a gifted ~ 50w 3500K ufo, and put the other SS 150 over my new seedlings

Alas, only 2/4 have second leaf sets. The other 2 did not break the shell open and died. Probably overzealous keeping them too wet. I usually use an eye dropper instead of a spray bottle

4 other cracked seeds have yet to pop, so I tossed the remaining 6 original Med-Man Silver Skunk seeds in water a few minutes ago

Anyway, the 4 Indicas are looking pretty sweet

I removed one SS 150 to start new seedlings. I added a gifted ufo 3500k to get more light to the far right side

SS 150 + ufo 3500k BBCC

4 BBCC near done. They are very fast finishers

I lowered the lights to ~ 14" to provide deeper penetration

They don't develop many calyxes

No discernible difference left or right, but the far right side needed a bit more light

I noticed quite a few similarities between this and your amare insights thread, are you running multiple rooms? or is this kind of a grow diary and the other a place for your musings on the lights performance?

The Insights is more generalized, whereas the others are pertinent to a specific light

The Insights is more generalized, whereas the others are pertinent to a specific light

So the amare insights thread is kind of for your musings on that specific light, and this thread is for an ever evolving grow? just trying to understand the two threads

The Insights came first, with the SS 100.

Later, I received 2 SS 150s and the 260, and so started a separate thread

Maybe 5-7 days left

Now diluting +Size 50/50 with RO water

I further diluted the nutes by 50% and turned the lights off

~ 3 days until harvest

SS 150 in the Nursery

In the mean time, the nursery is looking good with 2 Med-Man Silver Skunk seedlings now on 3rd leaf set + 7 Woody Haze X White Widow-pollinated with G13 are beginning to break out of their starter cubes.

The low 50s nights with mid 70 days has slowed them down

 

[PetFlora]

Put them in the dark 3.5 days ago

Today I harvested the Triplets- 3 cola type plants. Zero side branching

Buds are MUCH phatter than under the BML SPYDR600


Gonna let them hang as is for a couple days, then cut and weigh the buds

I may wait until tomorrow to chop the bigger BBCC plant, which has more bud than the Triplets combined

Big BBCC Harvested

Big BBCC Harvested

Needed to pull the Big BBCC as the 2 seedlings from the igloo seed tent are big enough, plus, 2 more of the WH X WW pol G13 seeds have popped, so I need the space in the Igloo tent

I decided to reveg the Big BBCC, though not as big as the original seed

Moved the 2 Silver Skunks (now on 4th leaf set with nice root structure) to the veg and reveg tent under a Solar Spec 150 (no pics)

All 6 spots in the Igloo bubbler filled with WH X WW pol G13 , also under a Solar Spec 150 (no pics)

Manicured buds are from all 4 BBCC + trim (not shown)

Thanks for the good read and the links petflora.

 

[wildgrow]

It looks like the 'white' panel gave you larger bottom buds than Im used to seeing in led grows.

Me too, especially the lowest sat buds under the SS 260

And my 260 is NOT the high intensity version (better for sat growers), which I hope to swap this one for
