Cut Down and trimmed... Border haze Day 171 from popping...

Cut Down and trimmed... Border haze Day 171 from popping...

So the time was right and my mood shifted from grower to trimmer over night.
picture.php

What can I say..
The smell is intense most nugs are dense and look great after trimming.

I only found a couple signs of bugs and don't seem to have lost much beyond some fan and sugar leaf.

picture.php


Seems to have good girth and think I wall be happy with the yield. All and all how could complain.

picture.php


Only 30 day under 430 hps and no nutrients & straight hose water.. so cost me maybe $20-$30 for all this smoke.

That and these were my seeds. Talk about stoked....

picture.php


Given the grow conditions (harsh) and the amount/quality (Descent) I am more than happy with the out come and the fact that I have
hundreds of beans for this strain...
Looks like Ill be happy for years to come.

the rest...

the rest...

1st test led to leaks with the blue hoses. A little plumbers glue and a few hour's should fix it.

I moved the pluse feeder hoses from lid to the RES top.

Also shown is the control bucket.

Running Jack's Hydro at 7.5 Grams per 5 Gallons.
I want to soak coco over night and maybe add ladies tomorrow.


They really need to be moved. Getting bigger by the day..

Yep... stay tuned..

3 Gallon Smart Pots with Coco-Perlite in a P.P.K. set up with pulse feeding Jack Hydr

3 Gallon Smart Pots with Coco-Perlite in a P.P.K. set up with pulse feeding Jack Hydr

I dig new toys...

I got her up and running. Changed a few things added a couple this and that's... No leaks and water level under plants staying at 2.5 inches.

I moved the: 3 Blue Alaskin Thunder Fcuk
1 Hawiian Punch
1 Kong O.G.


OK here's the break down:

5 Gal blue control bucket with a 30 gal reservoir
( also ave a 5 gal res. ready) Might change over to the smaller one.

If you look at the feeder lines you will see off/on valves on each.
In case I want to change things or move.
I had one on the res-cont line yet leaked. Will get a different kind.




Pulse feeding pump and lines. ( I ordered quick connect and off valves as well as a new manifold )




Controle bucket with float valve.
Using car tire stems as ports. Using 3 with another 3 ready if
I ever expand.



Original 3 gallon Smart Pots with handles using coco filled 1 1/2"
pipe as a wick.

2.5 inch air gap between the bottom and water line.
Small drain holes between pots sitting on 10 gallon tots.

Day 32, The Ladies...

Day 32, The Ladies...

I really waited to long ta transplant a couple BATF.
Roots out the bottom like crazy and just a touch of brown root on one.

I took a scalpel to the pots, so as not to cut roots.



Worked really good. I cut each pot in half and cut almost no roots.


All 3 B.A.T.F were popped at the same time yet each is different than the other. Loven the phenoms..

Day 32

Day 32

The Hawaiian Punch and Kong both had dry coco on top.
Around a inch deep- must have been the wick.

Its been cold and I raised the lite's with the larger plants.
All of which seems to have stunted their growth a little.

Hawaiian Punch.




Kong O.G.

Tops.

BATF

1


2


3



H.P.



Kong O.G.



Lets see if I get lucky- No shock,no stunting... Fingers crossed.

Feed with 3.5 grams Jacks Hydro per 5 gallons water and a total
of 30-35 gallons used to start it up.

Ready to start upping jacks (.5 per 5 Gallons a week )till I get to around
6 to 6.5 .

Thinking 7 to 7.5 grams per 5 Gallons is full strength.
Anyone know if this correct ?

Going to add Cal/Nit at 1.5g per 5 Gallons

Ph strip shows high 6 low 7 PH. Looking for the PH pen I bought. lol

Any thoughts or suggestions ?

Started a new thread...

Started a new thread...

The new set up is running great and looking good.
The ladies seem to have taken a very slight leaf droop yet came right back by morning. Named my PPK and moved her to her own thread.
This will become a Misc and smoking on journal till I do something with soil again which could be 1 gal smart pots. Who knows.. :woohoo:

Then there are 5 other beans on day 4.
80's Mid west Bagseed (2)
GS cookies x Platinum Master Kush (1)
Border Haze (1)
Top Shelf BagSeed (1)


:tiphat:
 
how interesting, growing those plants no doubt will unearth some of the history. some times in the fields the parent crops of the past were fertilized. that took me a few minutes to type lol
