Micro cfl sog Dr bud style

[quicksilver91]

Hello all,
Thought I would document my first grow here, if that's OK with y'all.
I'm doing a micro sog similar to the world famous drbudgrengenes. I have one Rubbermaid container 20" wide x 32" tall x 18" deep for flowering (not completed yet) and one similar in width and depth but about 44" tall for veg. In the veg box currently are my 2 hopeful mothers that I have been growing for almost 4 weeks. Clones have been taken sporadically over the last week. The oldest has still not shown roots as of yesterday. The bushier mother is from a dank bag of master kush, the bonsai-ish seed came from a dank bag of green crack. The bonsai plant hasn't looked to great from the jump, so I've been pretty harsh in experimentally trimming it. I ended up with 5 clones from that one and 2 so far from the master kush.. I also have two mystery bag seeds that sprouted over night I just checked this morning to see they've popped, and two other mystery bag seeds germinating. Sorry if pic quality is bad, limited to mobile device at the moment. Feel free to ask any questions and to pull up a chair!
Q

The small mason jars are just something I thought of while duct taping water bottles back together. I make fruit wine and will put samples in these little mason jars to give to friends so I had them laying around. Just put a little superthrivey water in the bottom with a peat pellet, dip your cutting in power put in the pellet and wrap the jar in a sandwich bag with a corner at the top, screw the lid over it for an air tight dome. Air out 15 min every 2 days

There are two cuttings in each jar. I can't wait till I can edit my post so I don't have to make a new reply for everything, in my baked state, that I leave out.

Mother plants are being grown in natures choice organic mix and fed fish emulsion and super thrive only so far. Under 3 23w daylight fluorescent lights. 4 inch desk fans blowing in from outside the box onto the plants and one slightly pushing air out through the top for minor ventilation.. the flower box will be alot better. This one is just thrown together..I've researched marijuana growing and played around with it for over ten years. This is my first grow that I k ow is going to fi fish because there is no one in my household but me. Anyways, after all the research and everything...I've deducted plants don't need a whole lot. As you can see the master kush is thriving, the green crack sustained some burning but its new growth looks very healthy. Excited to sex these two, just wait in on a Cline to show roots!

That I know* is going to finish* waiting* on a clone*

An updated picture as I made some changes today. 11potential plants total( not all rooted ) now under 4 total 23 w daylight bulbs and one 23 w warm spectrum cfl

Sorry for the long time away. I went ahead and threw the bonsai green crack into flower, its a confirmed female and has two mystery seedlings going 12/12 beside her
The bushier is the master kush mom..pushing out clones on clones.

 

[blynx]

The bonsai Green Crack is looking nice and healthy!

Did you finish building the flowering rubbermaid?

 

[quicksilver91]

I did! Well I still haven't put on the filter...I'm afraid the green crack may have hermied on me though! I've got a bunch of green crack clones rooted just waiting on roots to show outside the peat pellet as the last clone I put in too early died. But yeah got two mystery seeds going 12/12 from start that look like pure indicas and master kush clones rooted but not ready. Soon. I've seen female preflowers on the master kush so I already know its female . Might have a light leak though need to check it out.

 

[quicksilver91]

Wow man just checked out your grow. Truly awesome I hope mine is half as good. Thanks for stopping by!

Looking good, I'm a huge fan of Dr. Bud's uSOG. I do a small version in my PC.


On with the show!

 

[quicksilver91]

Hey reiko! Really clean pc set up man ill be chicking in on it, thanks for stopping ny. Ive got some.close ups of the top of the flowering green crack and about 3 nodes down that i believe to be hermie. Can anyone tell if it is for sure? Did my best to get a clear pic.

 

[quicksilver91]

Anyone? I'll post update pics soon. Not much has changed . Buds are filling in. Still no noticeable trich production and very low odor which is concerning to me honestly. I want dankness. I don't wanna grow mids..not that I'm giving up on it by any means. I just expected at least odor by now? Anyways .. My first clones have been rooted for awhile but I had forgotten to put back on the dome one day and they severely shriveled after a few hours. One has shown roots outside of the pellet as of yesterday but it is literally a living twig. Ill probably maintain patience with it and see if I can grow it into a green crack mom to replace the bonsai I threw into flower

You can never have enough mothers.

 

[quicksilver91]

Update! Just some flowet shots. A picture of 80% or so of the bonsai (tied together to prevent the leaves from covering my plants below. Which are: 2 mystery seedlings one had some 5-1-1 fish emulsion added to her organi 2-7-4 nutrient solution to correct the early yellowing its showing. A green crack clone looking pretty svraggly but showing some new growth.

 

[quicksilver91]

Green crack bonsai is in day 14 of flower today.

 

[quicksilver91]

If you rub her leaves, very peppery and spicy aroma, but quite feint. With the master kush, straight skunk aroma.

 

[quicksilver91]

Still no master kush clones ready for flower...the unwillingness to root readily like the green crack clones are is for me an undesirable trait. I'll be replacing this mom as soon as I can...depending on how dank the bud is. But I'll be ordering seeds soon. Just planted bag seed cause it was readily available

 

[quicksilver91]

Well. .I thought this was an active forum. After 550 views with only 3 replies. I'm taking this grow elsewhere, hopefully somewhere that people provide feedback and atleast try to answer a first time growers questions. Thanks anyways!

 

[Well]

Looking forward to see more pics mate
