FLUSH TIME

FLUSH TIME

INB- so sorry to hear the bad news brother. i hope you figure out something so you dont get to held up. you need to get your ass down here in 2 1/2 weeks to help me trim. i'll get a little kush and we'll chop shacks and gks up and puff up some hash!! smoke the pain away..and you'd be surprised to find how thereputic anothers garden is.... yours and maj's got me :ying: before mine was in full swing... :joint: talk to you later :friends:

Maj- thanks tio for checkin up on me... glad you like so far :bandit:

alright tonight was busy in the garden as usual. there is always some work to be done... it really keeps me on my toes with so many different size containers and plants and mediums to learn at once. but i like a challenge!
first thing i did tonight was pull out the ML in flower and i fed her nicely. then i snapped a few of her. tonight was day 18/19 not sure which
over shot

a look at the tops

side view


i thinned her out just a little. i cut a few leaves that were swamping the lowers. gotta get that penetration right. here's a shot of those lowers
and here are some tric shots






after i messed around mith that i busted out the dwc and snapped a few before i changed the water out... FLUSH TIME... man one step closer to some fine smoke! :woohoo: the trics are like 75/20/5 amber/cloudy/clear :bat: those clear ones must all be new cause it has been packin them on
over

front
and the lowers got nice and plump. there is absolutly no popcorn i did not trim any lowers off either. pretty cool :chin: gotta try that again

After all of that i made a little bubble cloner to run next to my RR. i had everything i needed except for the extra pump and airstones. this bubbler is really small, but it holds plenty of cuts! I bought an air pump with dual outlets. i used one for the bubbler


then i loaded the bubbler with cuts from all my vegging plants. there are 10 shacks(3a,3b,2c,2d), 2 WhiteWreck, and 2 ML (STRWD)

then i took the other outlet on the pump and hooked it to a newly slapped together little dwc just like the other one. i threw in a ML clone from the erkel pheno that is in flower now.peep

i hope it does well. next week i will have the other dwc container to bust out two for fun. they are speedy producers. and cheap. :pointlaug
after that i watered the big single cola with nutes for the last time. i checked the trics on it and it is time to flush. it is 50/50 amber. i will try to run out to 65 days if it lets me. i am in no hurry but those trics change quick sometimes. snapped some of dat







to end the night i flushed out the cup bud as well. i ran a gal. through it! haha




i think that is all i did. i smoke up INB's weed he sent me and get all twisted and forget and procrastinate. is that how you spell procrastinate. man this herb is good. peace all.

whats happening.
INB- i dont think i need a prodigy at this point in my journey. but thanks for the suggestion. i tried to write that guy a post once and i accidentally erased it and was like forget that all over again. it was a lengthy post. maybe ill get back to there one day. but dig this
tonight i had to water the 5 gal and the 3 gal and the gks. i took all the big girls out to check trics again. the 5 gal was like 60/40 amber cloudy and that meant for me i want to start flush. i ran like 7/8 gallons of water ph'ed to 6.2 and i sprayed it down with diamond necture. i will flush like this one more time and then plainwater fed normally until i reach as close to 60 as i can stretch it. if the trics let me i will go longer. that is a two week flush minimum im after. the 3 gal i saw 40/60 amber cloudy. i fed her indo guano and plain water. i will start the flush next water most likely. i sprayed it with the DN too. the bonsai had 60/40 trics or more. it was still wet from the last water so i will begin flush next water in another day or 2. also sprayed with DN. the trics on the gks were all clear. there were a few cloudy but very few. i am sure this strain will go 70 days or more. so i will continue to feed those twins heavily for now, so i sprayed them both with DN. this is a wasteful week for water around here, but it is worth every drop in the drain
to know its clean.

right on nice update nephew nice lookn colas, 1 question though why so much water for flushing. the way ive understood and have done was cut ferts out 10-14 days before chop with organic/organic based ferts, and use plain PH'd water every watering until chop. except the guanos for me i'll slam them with guanos untill 3-4 days before chop.


ive understood only time ya want to run 2-3times amount of water through soil is if the nutrients are locked out of the rootzone. some clearex in the water dose just that i have that bottel of it lol got it when i tried some coco used it to flush the coco bricks.

unless your feeding them ferts every watering outside of that we have pretty much the same ferts except i dont have the tiger bloom i'll never use it again thats just me lol.

see bro idea behind plain PH'd watering last 10-14 days is so the plant is forced to use any and all nutrients stored in the rootzone. best way to know when she's flushed properly is take a large fan leaf chew the stem if it tastes bitter flush longer if it taste like water ready for salad like the 1's ya chewed here then she's ready for chop. otherwise your flushing nutrients the plant can still uptake and increase the final yield just a thought bro :)

hey friends :wave:
MAJ- i did that flush that way to rinse my soil out of the guano left behind and flush the soil also initially. i do alternate waters with nute/plain rotation, but the last two week i gave guano to them on plain days too. never burned them.it took an hour just to flush one plant several times. the drainage was totally clear by halfway. and it tastes like lettuce already. from here on out the waters willbe plain. i may flush hard one more time, not sure yet. we'll see how the leaves taste in a day. we do use the same ferts, but i use nearly twice as much and i slammed the shit out of them with organics for 45 days now, so i think they have been fed enough. and the chop is coming sooner than i expected, trics are trning on me so fast. over night they went from30/70 to 60/40 so i wanted to flush all hard initially incasei chop before my desirable time frame. im pushin for 60 days on the bonsai and the 5gal. then im gonna try to stretch the 3 gal to 65. i puffed some of INB's 65 day nug he gave me, just the tip and it got me zoned. that is what i want. and the 3 gal is a little behind on the tric change, but like i said in the end things can happen so fast i am finding. i also think i will chop the top branches first on the 3gal and let the 5 or 6 really lower branches swell a bit. the trics on the super lowers are still cloudy/clear. understand my madness or do you sitll think all that water is unecessary. i personalyy like this method, i feel reassured. peace

GCG- hey man it is a pleasure to have you here. i have learned much from your threads dude, i did lurk here for some time and watched unable to post. fortunately they are plants, unfortunately they are not beachball sized, but we can dream right..... but they are getting super hefty and i always loved fat girls. more of them to luv... any way bro i do appreciate the kind compliment, thanks a lot!!!! i would love it if you popped in more. friends are always welcome to party here :joint: , so see you around later brotha. peace

OHHHHHHHHH WEEEEEEEE... Damn ive been away to long your stuff is looking great my friend. I think along the same lines as maj when thinking about flushing, i think 1/2 the water would have done just as adequate a job but thats just my .02. But all your kids are looking delish and i wish that when their done i could have a taste, but unfortunatly thats not possible but its all good, maybe one day i will find myself some sugar shack heres to hopin :friends: here have a few knife hits on me haha. Looking great my friend. cant wait to see those harvest shots!!!!! :yoinks:

hey folks thanks for the cool comments, you all make it worth keeping tabs and sharing.
Hidingtree- thanks for poppin in. the GK smells like a box of crayola crayons with a hint of grape somethin. it is becoming more pungeont with time. in veg they smelled like some dank ass skunk weed, i think it will come back(i hope) by the 70's. it is a longer finishing strain i am finding, and it likes food. produces dense dense fat nugs. stick around for the smoke report!!!
p.s. metzger says GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR back!wait im sorry RRRRROOOOAAAAAAARRRRR he said type it like it sounds.haha
p.s.s. i have a few more beans, so i am on a hunt for that grape pheno. wish me luck!!!!!!
NKRON- welcome back dude. hope your trip went well for you and the missus. :wave: glad you still approve.... on the flush subject i know how yall feel, but it is only plain water, not black gold, so it is not much of a waste other than my time i guess, but i always tend to do more than expected. i guess i would rather overflush than under, especially if i chop early like in less than 10 days, cause then more than 2 gallons of water have been ran through. like i said tose trics are nuts. my stuff matures faster than maj and inb's shacks, considering my lighting is more than double INB and 3.5x more than maj. i bet that shaves a week from my finish time and i was using there experiences to base my attempt, knowing i would have to monitor plants for such things. i was not gonna flush for another week initially. the only person i know who flushes like this is INB he is even more excessive, but i like the concept. i am debating over flushing the bonsai now....... i will. F it. see ya around
p.s. hit me up in a pm :friends: to HOPE!!!

MAJ- good description. i like the JR smell idea that is more accurate. when i got that sack i remember saying out loud" shit this is how weed should smell right here" at first whiff, and luckily found a few beans eventually after many sessions of puffin on it. i want the pheno i smoked bad. that shit was the real deal endo flava...
