Blueberry finally! Did her in my very first run, with organics! Now she is coco styleeeee
These four girls are ending their 5th week of flower
A couple of Kush girls Check the first one, something weird.....
See the topped section to the left?? Well it for some reason finished earlier than the rest of the whole plant
awesome update and pics cali!..
i love blueberry. its my number #1 all time "best joint ever"... i hope you enjoy that like i did..
Sour D looks white! my mouth is watering!
Im lovin ya perpetual grow show cali! keep it comin yo, I just now switched to perpetual myself, Im fealin the back ta back harvests...
Ima be watchin man...
what's up with that kush? the branch you topped finished early. weird. actually, I took a branch off a nycd last week that was done, while the rest of the plant looks like it has another week still.
you know, I think your plants are a little bigger than they seem to be in the pics. size scale is always a little funny, when looking at someone else's pics.
You got blueberry too? you're full of surprises lately.
Hey cali by not growing them so big do they finish faster or is it just for height restrictions. All ur girls look so clean from the buds down do u prune while only in veg or do u also prune in flower to. :jawdrop: Man they are pretty what ever ur doing.........Oh almost forgot what nutes do u use.
I have couple of the same strains as you.We sure have alot in common growing wise heheheheh.
Really dank nice buds. I have a couple of questions that I was hoping you could answer.
Do you feed them when you water them daily? If not how often for feeding?
How much runoff do you go for when you water them daily?
Did you add anything to your coco mix like perlite, vermiculite, etc.?
What brand of nutes are you giving them?
Have you had any micronutrient, calcium, or mg problems growing in coco? If so what do you add when you see the first signs?
What's the ideal pH for coco in your opinion?
How many days do you flush with coco?
Is it worth buying canna coco or is any brick coir just as good after a salt flush?
Sorry for so many questions but I want to do coco for my first grow and I wanna do it right so I ask top growers their methods. Much appreciated.
NZjay-Hey pal! Yea that blueberry is a good strain although I haven't run her in coco yet and I am eager to see the results! If she doesn't make the cut then the moms getting yanked! Gotta make more room man!
GET MO-Yea dude I am feeling the back to back harvests too lol, I am really trying to get two plants starting flower every two weeks and have a total of 8-10 sets.....Lots of water jugs But I had it going really nice around christmas, kinda lost it, and now I am getting 2 in every two
weeks no matter what. The next set I'm doing is two Green Ice girls
DIGITALHIPPY-Ahhh she makes me happy dance too hahaha I am all out of her atm just finished smoking her a week ago?? Now I got another girl about to be done, sweeet!
Core-Thanks bro, I still have some beans from you I must work with, they are probably gold sitting there but I just don't have the time My bad homie but I'm sure when I do get to them I will find that Special Core Dankness!!!
hazy-YEA VOTE FOR MY KUSH PLEASE!!!!! I think I checked last night and I am in second place! SHIT! lol, Oh well all's fun in growing Thanks again Hazy I'm sure I'll be nominating some of your strains soon here. Blueberry, yea I had her since the first box run which wasn't even perpetual, did you know I have Green Ice as well???? i'm flowering those next!!! I just got the purps and "elvis" recently too, can't wait!
m@rg-Yea I think your right SD is my #1!!!! The smell just wins me over every time she's cured, it's a very very strong sour and I am in love with it for real. There's a couple more like C99, I think this Hawaiian Purple Kush is contending too!
vinnystallion-Yo dude thanks for poppin in, nah plants don't ever really finish faster, I mean the coco acts like hydro almost and hydro gets faster results so I base off that and say coco gets faster results than soil at least...But It's not really Height restrictions either cuz I could go bigger, but I like them small, I don't like a bunch of lower growth to use energy for nothing. I like dem main colas! I prune in veg and only three weeks into flower, more than that isn't necessary and you should be done pruning by that time anyway. Also don't prune a lot at once, cuz that'll stress out your plants more, do a little everyday instead a lot one day....I use House and Garden Nutrients, check on my response to theDarklurker for more on that.
Raistlin Majere-Heeey buddy, how's it growing over there??? Wish we could pass each other some joints, lol, keep working bud! Stay Irie!!!
thedarklurker-Yo dawg check it.
-I feed daily, with one flush per week starting at the end of the second week usually.
-No runoff, I read you want 6% runoff though. I let them just get enough water everyday so they can drink it and dry up and NEED water the next day, that way they always can receive food everyday.
-I add nothing except plant success to my coco whenever I transplant
-I use house and Garden nutrients, but of their line I only use the cocos A&B, multi enzyme, drip clean, and shooting powder. Other than that I use botanicare's Sweet, Silica blast(works great for strength and drought resistance), and Cal Mag +
-Yea I get calcium and magnesium problems, I started using Cal Mag + during the second week at a dose of 2.5ml per gallon all the way til the 6th week of flower
-I use the color Ph test kit from my local hydro store. I like the color gold I think it's like 5.6 or something like that for coco but I could be way off? I just always go for gold!!!!! hahaha
-At least ten will make you happy, but I go for 14. Only using plain PH'd tap water. BUT when I flush I FLUSH. The first day of flushing usually I DRENCH the pots until water is pouring out the bottoms, it takes about two days before the pots are dry enough IMO to water again. Then I flush again at least two more times like that, giving it a flush of 3-4 times with water pouring out the bottom.
-You know what your talking about, looks like you did research already. I get the bags, but I bet it's cheaper to get the bricks and flush them. You knew you needed to flush so good job, salt is cocos enemy although it sticks so well to the coco!
no worries on the Q's it's what we are all here for! NOW ON TO THE PICTURES!!!!
My internet has been messing up lately and these pics were taken at day 43 flowering, two days ago. Full shot anyone??? Can you spot the bic?
I've got 4 girls in this set, lets see.....one Sour D IBL
One Trainwreck
And two Kush Girls
Let me just say......
On to the Hawaiian Purple Kush She's in the middle of the fourth week of flower right now and looking sooo dense already
WOWOWOW Can't wait, I rub a frosted leaf and smell tropical skittles!!! Well I'll see you all later, I really love the response you all are giving me!!! PLEASE GO VOTE FOR MY KUSH PICTURE IN THE POTM FOR FEBRUARY!!! THANK YOU!! http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=92999
you won't be seeing any pics worthy of potm in my thread unless i get a better camera.
even then, my pics will suck.
Looks like you tied for 1st place with zoolander.
just the thread i was lookin for. i need to check out the POTM and throw you a nom if not to late. i havent popped in the coco area in a few and been out of the loop over here. you would be proud cali. i bought my first bags of coco. i bought canna. should i rinse it eventhough it says prerinsed . how should i flushit, in the bag in the tub? poke holes in botom of bag and rinse? any way off i go to peep your photo. keep it caligreen.
sir
