some cured snow cap bud...

so something very mysterious happened and our light cycle got thrown out of whack and everything in veg got tricked into flower for a few days. we adjusted the timers to 20 on and 4 off and have seen a rapid growth since. It was a mistake that slowed growth down, BUT helped us in the long run.



My partner made some pretty dope ass racks to solve our drain pan problem. Now everything drains into the pans below the racks. Good idea we'll see how long it works.

Thanks man glad someone is out there following this thread. things have been absolutely wonderful at the grow site. my biggest worry for the last few weeks has been that our two mother plants will end up hermaphrodite. thus far everything is splendid no male parts anywhere and gigantic buds on both of the mother plants. See for yourself.


Snowcap


Sour diesel


I am not very sure why I assumed that the mother plants would turn hermie. I believe quite a few people have reported this happening to them. In my circumstance I hope that these 2 strains are extremely stable and have no chance of doing such. If we are able to get a good harvest this will provide more than enough for me and the P

here's another shot of the Sour Diesel mother they are some gigantic bushes. the second picture is a Sour Diesel about 3 weeks into flower



here is a little example of the low stress training I have been doing to the plants as you can see 1 picture the plant is straight up right in the other pic I have trained several ways resulting in maximum yield

here's a shot of the rest of the plants that I have in flower. we have a total of 19 plants in there and about half of them are ahead of the 2 mothers.
finally the plant size is getting bigger and we're getting better yields with a perpetual Garden it has taken us a couple of weeks in order to get good plants yields and not suffer going a few weeks without a harvest

Another shot of the plants in flower.

the veg closet is rocking and rolling as well for what little bit of light that I have in there. My first intentions when I couldn't get some tax money back is to get a 150 watt CFL bulband hang it vertical in the veg room



the bubble cloner is working like a mad man. so in the very near future I am thinking about converting my 10 site aerocloner into a 2 site mom aerocloner. Instead of the two big 5 gal Grey buckets above they will be condensed into one small bucket. and from what I've read in order to keep my moms around a long time this is the method.


Roots roots roots!

Okay my two mums I put in are yellow as can be. All the shade leafs are yellow. The Snowcap that were put in few week before still have Green ass shade leafs.. Like really green. So I'm thinking a salt build up, maybe flush? Maybe someone can help me. I don't want my babes suffering. Help

nice grow shame about the hermies ,do you think it is stress related or the clone line?

Re: K.I.S.S - A new way of life!

Hermies? I think you misunderstood me, no Hermies here. I was only talking about the possibility of putting mothers who have been butchered on, into flower and they Hermie. The only thing that has gone hermie on me were the feminized seeds I got online. They are in my first hempy grow in my signature. The seeds that I found out of my buddies bag have been some of the 2 best strains around here. They were special seeds though. Like 1 per a couple pounds. I just got lucky! That's the Snowcap and sour d. And yes I love what I do. I also am a landscaper. And back in school for my Turfgrass degree. So i live breath all aspects of horticulture

finally i cured some stuff and kept it around long enough to take some pics. here is some stuff that was cured/dryed about 10 days.
start with the sour diesel...

and the awesome Snowcap...

The flower closet is getting FILLED. Progressively we have gotten this perpetual thing to a amountable size. In order to not suffer on yields we had to put some smaller stuff in the last few times, from here on out, its big beefy plants and thats all that goes into bud!

got a new light and some new materials will update the new stuff soon!!

I feel that I am no longer a new grower(12 months) , and with me experimenting in the COCO world i have decided to create a new thread. No one seemed to follow this one very much so no feeling im sure are hurt. I will be putting it in the hydro section and will have a link within a few hours.
