Givin it another shot

[SofaKingStupid]

Damn. I feel so weird. Lately I been failing miserably. I’m not too sure why. I think I just been havin a bad run lately. I been trying to get back on my feet for better than 2 years now. First I couldn’t get good cuts. Then bad seeds. Then more bad cuts. Either that, or I suck. Tho I haven’t had a problem in almost 20 years of growing mabey im just getting old and feeble now. I don’t know.

That’s why im goin into this confused. But here we go. Il be doin Blumburns Fat Basttard fem. In DWC in 3” net pots in 5 gal buckets. With 3 double 4” flouros for seed clone and veg, and 4 buckets around 1k hps in the flower room to start.( the plan is to get 2 more lites and an auxiliary panel for the room after first or 2nd harvest). Anyhow. Here she is now. Bean popped out the cube the 12th. I’m waiting to see some yellow on the cotyledon before I give her ff326.

Good luck it happens to the best of us at times were all getting older so to speak..

Now she’s in her own net pot in her own bucket. I stuck some rocks around her. I’m usin bottle water in her 5 and I’m still waiting for just a little yellow on her cotyledoms till I nute her

 

[SofaKingStupid]

The water levels rite at the very bottom of the rockwool cube. Just touching it.

 

[SofaKingStupid]

Her this mornin

 

[SofaKingStupid]

11 days from the paper towel. The cotyledoms still solid green. I’d really like to feed her a little bit of gf 326. But her cotyledoms still not showin any yellow at all.

grabbing a seat much success with your grow

 

[SofaKingStupid]

Thanks for all the good vibes.
Here she is now. I started her in a paper towel on the 9th and she popped outta the cube on the 13th, so she’s 8 days from popping out of a cube. Damn I really wanna feed her. But I’m just gonna try to do the rite thing here and wait. I’m not a bean guy but I know I should wait. From what I understand I should wait till her coatyldons slightly yellow. Or she gets 3 sets or true leaves.

I got Sugar Shack in 02 in seed form from Prairy Pride through the Kindseed company. But I cloned her for years apon years so I never had to pop a bean. Then I got DJ Shorts Bluebdream and it’s a clone only and I cloned her over and over too. So I was never really a bean poppin person. So if anyones got any bean raisin tactics, lemme know. So far I think she’s lookin pretty good but what do I know. I’m more use to lookin at branches.

Hey SofaKing,,
Sorry to hear your been having a tough time mate,,
As DarkSider said “ it happens to all of us “,,
Very important to try and not
“beat yourself up”,,,
if you don’t have any positive outcomes this time then maybe ? Go back to basics with a good soilless mix and hand watering a variety you know well,,
All the best mate
Peace n Regards s2

You likely have light getting into the bucket with that yellow top. It should be growing much faster in DWC especially in veg.

 

[SofaKingStupid]

Thanks all for the replies and kind words. Yea it’s been some crazy shitt. For the last 2 years I’ve had problems with bad clone deliveries resulting in terrible results, and seeds that were clearly not as advertised. 2 sets of clones and a pack of beans later I realized 2 years have slipped by.

These seeds are by Blimburn and I hope they do for me what they’re sposed to. So far she’s 10 days from popping out of the cube. She’s even got a little root bubblin round in the water now. I’m just concerned about not feeding her. I feel like I should be. But her cotyledons still just fading from dark green to green now. I wanted to wait till I had some yellow in her colyledoms before I fed her but she just popped out her 3rd set of true leaves.

I think she looks pretty good for now. I think Il leave feeding for tomorrow mabe. Here’s a pic

 

[SofaKingStupid]

Naa. I fed her. 15 ml Fox Farm 326. The ppm’s came out around 250. My pens a little wiggly. And I set her ph at 6.1. We’l see how she looks tomorrow. Hope she’s good.

 

[SofaKingStupid]

6.07. The ph went up a bit so I bought it back down to 6.07. She looks nice.

 

[SofaKingStupid]

Here she is now. Her ph is at 6.15 annd it rose overnight so I put it at 6.15 and she’s eating FF GB 326 at 15 ml per 5 gallon bucket. The ppm’s are around 250. I think she looks pretty good. I looked into her linage a bit and it seems she comes from a couple of old Overgrow landraces. I mean a couple of strains developed on my old stomping ground Overgrow. Somehow that gives me comfort. Here’s a pic and I’m gonna go make sure bout her linage.

 

[SofaKingStupid]

Naa. I don’t know what I read. I’m lookin now and I see that it’s a combo of MonkeySpunk and GoldMember. I coulda sworn I read something bout an Afghani strain that was developed on OG and some other strain that was also developed on OG, making up some of the linage of the FB. But I’m pretty sure I’m wrong now. I didn’t see anything bout it. Either way I like her so far.
I hope she works good. I’m pretty confident about vegging her out. I’m sure she’ll do fine. Then I hope when I cut her she roots nice and quick. And I hope she’s gets me nice and high too. That’s all I need. Then I can get back to normal. I use to love waking up in the morning, makin my coffee, and goin rite to work in my underwear. My cats would wait at the flower room door. They knew when the flower room came on and I went in. It’s been 9 years now. I go out every day to get my 40 hours in now and I’m just gettin so so fukkin tired. I can’t wait to be able to work from home again. Plus I really love doin this shitt.

 

[SofaKingStupid]

Here she is today. Her roots slightly browned after I hit her with 326. Happens sometimes even with clones. Sometimes I would hit my clones with a little h202. I’m not sure if I can do the same with a seedlings but I think I’m gonna read a little about it. I think I’d like to give her like a cup of h202. Does anyone think that would be a good idea?

 

[SofaKingStupid]

Yea I dumped 75 ml 35% h202 in her 5. Her roots washed like normal. Theyr pearly white now. I’m not sure when, but mabey tomorrow Il give her another 15 ml of the 326. She looks good and everything’s goin good.
