GMT- I had to look up what a "pram" was..(baby carriage) hehehe thanks bro!
buzzed-Thanks man.. Stick around. :wink:
Bonzo- awww thanks. What can I say?? Especially coming from such a kind soul as yourself! Big love right back your way broham.
Core and sirsmokealot- Thanks for stopping by and your comps- much appreciated!!
Heres a pic of the stickyberry buckets at 65 days.
I swiched to pure tap water today 140ppm. pH is like 7.7
Should I add pH down during the flush? (I've been using nitric acid based stuff) so that would essentially add some N.
I cut a small teaser sample down today... I think I'll try and grab a few macro pics for everybody.
be back soon
peace and kindness
Well...
the harvest went well, and it took me about half of forever to get it trimmed...
I did end up ammeding the pH back down after my last post. btw..
heres a couple of shots before the chop 69 days flowering:
Thanks TML.
BUT ITS NOT DWC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it is an ebb and flow system that uses multiflow style bucket-stacks, and no controller...Click the >>>>linky<<<<
The stickyberry yield was not too shabby...best harvest I have ever had. I'm sure a new bulb and a tad less laziness on the pH front would have helped drastacally!
I had to shut down the 5 bucket side for the summer due to heat issues..
I moved the 2 strongest SDxAK clones into the 2 bucket system. (after cleaning hydroton)
the others have just been chillin under a cfl and a mini fan..I DRAINED THE RES AND THEY HAVE NOT BEEN FLOODED IN 2 WEEKS!!! LETS SEE A DWC GROW PULL THAT OFF!
as far as diffrences go so far between my soil/hydro grows:
Soil:More bugs, better taste (with worm castings), PITA the whole time with having to water every other day twards the end.
hydro:killer yield, killer growth, only a PITA right at the beginning and end. I am just a newbie hydro grower and I think it will take awhile till I find exactly the right nutes/additives to rival the worm casting goodness of some of my last dirt grows.
I just love this system! big love to my bro Bonzo for helping me out, and turning me on to this method!!!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
and thanks to Praxis too for the concept!
Sorry, sorry...my bad...again
I'm not exactly great with all these terms. I liked it better when it was just plain hydro or soil
Funny thing is...I have pulled off a ebb + flow grow before.
Seems you'll be growing the HYDRO route from now on :wink:
its all good
yea these buckets have earned themselves a perma-place in my arsenal. I might do some more dirt runs later though..easier to breed seeds and find mommas that way
ok people we are at 55 days flowering on the Cherry phenotype SDxAK in the S.S. Ebb and Flo buckets.
Heres a cab shot (they are just spilling out cause they need the door to hold them up)
Heres a shot of 5 huge colas along the back wall!!!:
Hey thanks for stoppin by guys! :friends:
Not long till the chop!! I'll probably let them go till 65 days at least.
Im about to start clones for my next run...
I've got the stickyberry, this sd x ak, and a gloden skush f2 moms to choose from..
