Grow II

[Mampi]

stay tuned for next grow... I will be running a side by side Advanced Nutrients VS. Generhal Hydroponics. With additives, the whole 9.

This is to lay to rest all the hype and nonsense.
We will see.

Sounds interesting although I am thinking your probably get similar results... only way to tell is to experiment as your doing though so props to you Nep...

How's those big ass pog buds coming along?

 

[gaiusmarius]

Hey Neptune,

don't fprget the interest LOL.

 

[frostyy420]

Sounds like its gonna be a good one coming up. Cant wait to catch this one.


Enjoy those wonderful buds Neptune.

 

[Keefhead]

Neptune - with your great growing skills, the nutes experiment will be real interesting. I'm looking forward to it.

Now go turn that heater up a bit....

 

[Neptune]

hey folks, thanks for the interest.. I will keep you all posted, I am taking down the dry Pot of Gold today. The harvest is now completely dry and I will start work on trimming it up, I am a solo trimmer so this will take all week.

But the PoG and Bubbleberry will both be done by day's end.

Next grow is being delayed, I am having clone troubbles... my clones seem to be healing their wounds, but not rooting substantially... just small little white root stubs emerging from the coterized wound. Anyone have this happen before(could be light cycle related, I took the clones from my mom's who may have slipped a little but into flowering!!)? Day 15 and only a few with small root structures... My clones usually root in 7-9 days.

 

[vhGhost]

neptune, the only thing i can think of with your clones is that they might of got a bit dry and all i can think of is that they need more water.
BTW that POG is an amazing strain, i can see it bring you joy in the months ahead!

 

[Neptune]

Small harvest update, hard at work here at the farm.... damn I hate harvest season!!!

The pot of gold absolutely destroyed my expectations.... This was my best run to date, and I hope to make improvements yet...

First some pictures..







pog1: 90g
pog2: 120g

Good yeild for 2 plants on the corner of the light footprint of a 600w lamp, yes? yes. All I can say is, I can't wait to load both tables up with Pot of Gold ONLY. The "GDP" club cut was booboo. The yeild is gona be less than expected, a few cuts yeilded only 16-25g, some are 50g, but the average looks like 1.5z at this point... making it a low 380g per light with this strain.

bubbleberry1: 65g Also respectable yeild from the bubbleberry tester, but too much "popcorn" for my liking. The POG beat out every strain in my garden, hands down. no popcorn to be had, every nug is descent sized and some are forearm sized...

 

[Neptune]

and for all you hash heads...!

Ninja's quickwash ISO extraction, this was done to all my buds that have suffered from budrot over the last year, stored in the freezer of course... I have enough to do another run very soon :]









nice yeild!

 

[Neptune]

Last but not least, some outdoor Purple Erkle that has been getting less than 5 hours of direct sunlight the entire growing season, currently is getting 2 hours of direct light. Also an experiment on my back porch... will not be repeting. Too much stress for such little light/yeild.

 

[Sauce]

Great finish so far. Can't wait to see all the other buds you chop and what the final weight is. I've followed the whole way through and it was a good ride.

Sometime I will need to get some POG seeds, I've seen a lot of nice crops using the strain.

Looking forward to the final chop and the start of the next crop.

 

[gaiusmarius]

congratulations on the hash run Neptune, or should i be calling it oil?
it looks like some good quality buds and hash was yielded. good news about the pot of gold being a keeper. can't wait to see a whole table full of POG. would surely be awesome.

 

[Keefhead]

and for all you hash heads...!

Absolutely beautiful. But there again, I'm a hash head.!

K

 

[HYDROJUNKIE]

that pog is the shit eh neptune!,....I got my hands on some p.o.g. cuts the other day,...hows the smoke?....are the buds dense?
have fun with the harvest-

 

[vhGhost]

hey neptune .. just bumping this awsome thread... hope all is well!! .. lol i'm sure your just enjoying your fruit! and that awsome wash you did .. WOW !!!

 

[Mampi]

Damn neptune you really make a good case for POG.... seems like quite the strain cheers for the budshots, they're very much appreciated!!

Hope all's well in your patch...


peace!

 

[Neptune]

updates by week's end... still working hard over here.

outdoor crop coming in bales also!

nice grow neptune, i'll have to agree with the keeping it simple, i've seen some nice grow with nuthin' but nutes. couple of questions on your grow, will be rereading right now. how much veg. and do you think those new bubls had ANYTHING to do with it?

i was trying to google for some more info on those bulbs, where did you get them/?

 

[Mr GreenJeans]

Neptune - congrats and props on your indoor harvest - looks fab - that iso wash hash looks killah! That outdoor urkle has more diamonds than Ivanna Trump!

 

[RuralRoute420]

when venting 2 cabs through a long run, would you just run and 8" inline, or would a six work?

 

[Neptune]

RuralRoute, How long is the run, and what is your fan cfm? for cabs, I would think 6" is plenty. the bulbs I guess I cannot attribute anything to the bulbs becuase It was not a controlled experiment... all 4 bulbs were replaced with the same new bulbs... I should have left one hortilux. I can say that getting new bulbs is always a great way to imporve yeilds. I replace bulbs after 3 grows.

Greenjeans, hey pal! yeah that bubble is still smoking like a champion, I love the stuff... a little goes a looonnnngggg way! one or two bumps on the hash pipe and I'm wrapped in a warm hashish blanket The erkle is a fantastic strain of conisour quality, in every respect.

The numbers are in. I can't say I'm too dissapointed, becuase I grew 32 plants from a no-name bullshit club strain that did me wrong in a coupple of ways, but the yeild is decent. Can you imagine a 100% Pot of Gold grow? wow.

2400 watts
POG 2 plants: 210g
Bubbleberry 1 plant: 65g
Swt#4 1plant: 0g (pog killed it)
GDP 32 plants: 1100g
total of 3#
this comes out to about .5gpw, 65 days bloom, and ~18 days veg.

I've also got about 100-200g of popcorn nugs that I have yet to trim through, but I am not counting those. I am thinking they may go straight to bubblehash

my 5th lamp, 600w organics also yeilded about 300g, .5gpw
3kw and ~1600g.

The next run is at day 10 Veg already, I'll be flipping around day 18 veg again. 9 per light, 18 per table, 36 in the room. Nice low and legal number of plants. Also up this grow, My organic section will be getting an upgrade... this secret will be revealed in my new thread, coming soon.


I will be running GH vs. AN, table vs. table, same strains on each table.
