Ok guy's i got sick last Tuesday, just now started feeling better.

During my bed riddenness my humidifiers went dry for 2 days and the plants in flower experienced less that ideal vpd. Had figures charted as high as 2.5 vpd! Ambient runs about 82.5-84 degrees F. So Plants due to excessive transpiration, showed symptom of nutrient burn, the 10 gallon gals worse than the 20 gallon totes. They're turning back around with proper growth now though.

That's the only caveats if running thing's to the Max, one parameter gets out of whack it temporarily derails the whole friggin train

Here's day 43

Last 3 pics are of some of the worse effected leaves, and last 2 pics are of the sip moms coming back with a vengeance. I purposely pruned them to what i thought was death, took fresh cuts to keep the moms in regular 5 gallon pots, as the sips grow way too fast for Mom's in a 3x3 that just need to exist in Limbo and grow as slowly as can be

Its a testament to the power of sub irrigated planters and the resulting tech i like to call "SWC" or "Shallow Water Culture"


Enjoy!

Day 57
In spite of the torching, i feel these will finish nice. They are pretty damn chunky fat.
Smells on the sour is pretty reminiscent of Skunk, like sprayed skunk and rubber. Nothin else is there, it’s a straight skunk smell

On the iris (tcb Britney) im getting sweet bubblegum like smells with a Coco nib hashy aroma ss you inhale through nose deeper
• they’re still pretty fuzzy, and really full of white hairs. These will likely go a good week or 2 longer than the sour x Obama kush.
Plan on taking the sour cross to Day 75-77, as they’re not even showing Milky yet, mostly clear, like 90%

Day 59
Gave a basic microbial active aerated compost tea last night
4 gallon ro got;
1 cup ewc, half cup build a flower (multi compost types and some kelp and biochar)
80ml molasses
1 tablespoon craft blend (microbe food)
2 tsp coconut water powder ( sugars for microbes)

So in my readings im seeing lot's of sour bx and f5-f6 are 10-12 week strains. Makes sense what im seeing, these def will go 77 days+ iris cuts are 9-10, so im taking them to 80 min.

Daystar Ac hood mod to dual 315 pics

Here's the first layer and second layer protection on The exposed wiring. This jumps socket 2 to socket 1's junction box to pick up connection to ballast. Uts a dual output ballast, so the cord from ballast to Hood os a 5 conductor 14awg soow Cord. Will be using twist lock connectors. Here's the other tech flex layer with heat shrunk ends

Test of the 630 ballast in its stock configuration mounted to the reflector it came with. Test to make sure it works so if it doesn't after modding i know I fucked up, wasn't a bad ballast or bulb

First time seeing a high wattage hid fire in 10 years, im pretty convinced LED os lacking something. These hids just feel so welcoming and calming

Clone’s taken for next run and to refresh mother plants while selecting them.

3x nl2 x purest indica
3x sfv og x purest indica
1x Skunk

Gotta run each pheno as my definite keeper will be a nl2 x purest indica for Future breeding. Others selected because i only wanna keep One of each

My SOP for clones is everything washed with antibacterial dish soap, wipes with bleach and alcohol.

2 cups of pure bleach, to soak scissors (3x pairs) and razors and tweezers in between cuts

Clonex gel, fridge kept, clonex Root Riot plugs,. Media presoak of 6ml per gallon hygrozyme and ⅛ teaspoon Great white myco.

Ill saturate the plugs again once all clones stuck.v This helps rinse excessive gel buildup and lowers iba concentration which can be detrimental to rooting if in abundance too greatly.
