krusty Help

hey Let's see if they can lose this thread twice!;) Krusty, Assuming there are people who want to learn how to be more proficient in thier growing and not take the let the chip fall where they may approach as sometimes prescibed on many forums, I'd like to start this thread as a newbie guide to correctness! I've been growing several years and wish to unlearn certian incorrect disciplines,i.e to start over! I believe you can Help bring this about. So, here are some questions to start. (1) Once your seeds have germinated what size of container should they be started in and when do you transplant to larger container? (2) When are ferts first introduced and what brand and dosage do you reccomend? (3) What wattages of light work best in each phase of growth if quality and yield are first priority, and not just wanting something to show for efforts given? (4) Height of light above plants and where to position it? (5) Setting up your grow rooms, what are the essential appliances needed to keep humidity and temp consistent to healthy plants and where should they be located? (6) For now this is my last question as I will ask for expoundment on your answers when I'm unsure of things. I hope others will join this thread with a attitude they may have something to learn as well. Question Where can I purchase the strain BCBB and what is it's actual name? Til later my friend!!! Samuryusan If you are banned or decide to leave this site P.M me an e-mail addy?

1. germination of seeds...i aint the pro on this....i always use clones...i rarely play arround with seeds...but give it commone sense....anytime i grew from seeds i ussed pete pellets/jiffy cubes not sure what they are called....then i would put them in 1 gallon pots til they out grow them....with my style/system of growwing i pre grow and i liek to you ver/per mixture when i pre grow....it works the best form my experience

2. ferts shoudl be introduced as soon as you see roots....people who try and use only water truely are mixing there nutrients wrong or have a unhealthy enviroment

3. as for my type of system (KBS...er...is it KFB...tehe i forget what we called it) but ya ideally you want a min 1000 watts per plant...each plant takes 5'x5'by at least 7 feet tall but i like to see 8 feet in hieght....as far as pre grow (not veg or bud) i like to simply use a 600 watt or 1000 watt buld in a horizontal air cooled shade...the reason beeing is that they are small enough at this stage not to be stressed by the overhead lighting

4. well lights should never be above plants...they should be IN the plants....amongst the plants....however you wish to werd it...but never above...hence why i use vertical lighting not horizontal

5. well its kinda hrd to answer...every house is different.....and it depends on location inside the house...some houses you need to have ceetain appliance...some you need all the appliances...depends on yer current enviroment....that is why it is best you tell me yer enviroment and i guide yas thru it...but basically you want stress free enviroment....you should know yer temps of the air...temps of yer roots....co2 levels....humidty levels..ect....if you dont have good levels or they are not consistent then you will end up with stresss...and stress will end up with low quality and low production numbers

6. not banend yet...lmao

as far as purchasing my strains...cant...lmao ....well i give out clones to my buddies n stuff...but i am not a breeeder n that kinda stuff....i saw a few strains bog has that looked promising....i am even thinking of ordering some of his seeeds and crossing it with my strain so that i can give out seeds to some folks...but i am not a breeeder at all....in fact i dont even grow anymore...i jsut kinda help friends n such out with there systems:/

peace

luv

Thanks Krusty,

There was a thread on OG about some Dutch boyz that used intense lighting on single plants. Yeilds per sq. ft/watt were enormous.

Makes me think. Find that one killer mom and you'd be set.

Hey krusty ,sorry we lost the other thread,those plants blew my mind for indoors.After reading your response,I understand better what your doing with 1K per plant!You really have a special technique!So you grow in soil,I thought for sure it had to be hydro?Do you think you could post a pic of your planting containers and your medium?And maybe a pic or two of those massive buds,since the others got lost?Very much appreciated!!!Is the strain your growing a common strain or was it "found" among random seedlings.How many of your friends are growing her?
Would you happen to be near the east coast:( Hope you can take the time to answer some Q's,Thanks and take care........CC

I misread your first response in this thread,at the top you were talking about vegging the plants,and I thought you meant soil.Do you use hydro rocks for a medium?I also grow hydro(3/4 of the garden)and soil for the other 1/4.I can't post my pics here as they take up too much of the alloted photo space,They are posted at OG and CW.I'm just really curious about your technique as you grow massive plants.Sorry to hear you have shut down for now,maybe we can give you the bug again:) .What do you call your high output lady?Thanks for responding and yes if you don't mind I would love to see the system in detail.I have a big flower room,but only 8 foot ceilings.I do have some vertical lights and I understand how you use them ,without the reflectors,yes?I've seen pics of others that grow without reflectors.What kind of nutes do you use?Thanks again..................CC

I believe that Krustys plants get sooo big that he uses lava rock in his system, or at least that's what serapis said!
 
Morning all!!

Morning all!!

I also am interested in your system in details krusty... and right now I grow strictly out doors,however I bought an older camper trailer that I'm gutting and reconstrusting into two rooms...one for veg and one for bloom. I have no temp or humidity levels to offer at this time but I want to be prepared to deal with any enviormental concerns that may arrive... The trailer is about 9 ft.x20ft with 7 ft. ceilings. My plan is for a 800 wattswitchable veg room of 8x9 ft. and a 2-3000watt flower area, so I want to do this thing correct. What size of exhausts do I need to put in? I have a twin blower exhaust lined up to start I'll have to check on the cfm rate, but it is a good size unit! Thanks Capt. for showing real interest also as you are asking the questions I need answer for too!! Yes krusty please do get some of Bogs strains to cross, maybe Capt and I could talk ya out of a few seeds for mother s!!! One can wish!!! I'll be back later!!!

greenja - dewd with 5,000 watts i would be very very suprized if you ussed my system/enviromental conditions and got only 3.5 lbs.....you musta had something different


if it was your first time i find most first timers tend to cheap out on the system....not have air to the roots or not use a resivoir chiller to keep the roots cool enough...

i would be curious to see what your enviromental conditions were...and what parts of my system you ussed....like what kinda medium you used n such

cause i have probably swapped a few hundred folks over in my years....and i have never seen anyone "disapointed" when they follow everything i say kinda thingy...

like no matter what strain it is...they always increase quality/yields by switching over to the KBS

peace

Thx HGC!

Krusty, Yeah I was too surprised. Here's all the details of my setup, and the last grow/thread:http://www.overgrow.com/edge/showthread.php?s=&threadid=330188&pagenumber=1

But here's the main specs:(no I didn't cheap out either lol)
5kHPS in 'X' pattern in 11'x11'x12' sealed room, 25 gal ext. located and insulated rez, 5gal buckets, airated by Thomas pump, using 50/50 perlite/coir, mult. 15min. time feedings, 1/4hsp chiller (undersized in real high summer heat and not even needed this last run due to cold weather), 13kbtu split/type AC unit, 1200ppm CO2 levels,(maintained by Drobots software and spare computer) and blower to vent as needed.
temps: max85 min72
rez temp 68F
GH feedings per instructions

And here's some pics of my present grow:http://www.overgrow.com/edge/showthread.php?s=&threadid=394660&pagenumber=1

If you recall, we icq last yr and it was at your suggestion that I insulated and drywalled the setup.


Anyway, this last run my temps were real good exc. the buckets and lines werent insulated. Just finished trimming last week and the yield was low. the reasons I guessed on the last page of the first thread.
