Well Here we go again
Im doing a run of SSH .


I will be using PureBlend Pro Gro And Bloom along with some Liquid Karma and CalMag+.

Im currently Using RO water with
5Mil Calmag+ per gal.
7mil PBP Grow per gal.
I also use Floralicious grow as a foiler spray @2mil per gal.

This feeding will continue for most of my mother plants Lives.

My plants are in a nice cab I built about a year ago

I use a DWC set up for the mothers.

I planted all of these in rapid rooters on 1.29.08 and will be pulling clones in about 10 more days.

When I started my grow I failed to Calabrate my PH pen which was a big mistake so I had some problems. DWC reacts very fast to your mistakes I have found but also corrections take hold at a faster pace in my limited exp.
All plants were put in rapid rooters on the same day but ofcourse 1 took off as the others lagged because of PH issues.

This plant #1 is very Sativa

This one here has the triploid thing going on so she is #3
The smallest one is some GD purp I was gifted by a friend.

They will be Flowered in this room under 800 wt of HPS In a ebb and flow set up

One of our other members Pedro48 is Doing a SSH grow in soil and planted on the same day as me so we will be doing a growalong to compare notes etc etc.

Please feel free to jump in with any questions/comments/suggestions. You guys are the only ones I can share my hobbie with and it gets lonely out here sometimes.

Thanks for looking BK

was it hard learning about and creating your hydro setup? im growing in soil and am interested in your grow method. i know theres a ton of literature on it, but i was just wondering what your experience has been

Everything I know about hydro I learned on these forums from its members.
Most of my room came from HD Im guessing I have about $1000 in it which is not two bad I guess.
I have only grown in hydro so I think its easy LOL.It can get exp getting started

PH is KING in hydo in my experiance but once my room gets going I can leave it for as long as a week in early flower and 3 days in late flower without doing anything. My intire room automated so to speek so I just ck my rez and keep it topped off.

The DWC set up I have for my mothers is a bit diffrent. I dont keep mothers more than 3 runs before I flower them out so I think its ok. I dont think you could keep a mother much longer than that but I may be mistaken.

Thanks for stopping buy This thread should really be jumping at about 30 days into flower WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Thanks BK

Hey Bad Karma!!

I see your grow is coming right along. I put my other four SSH into flower today after transplanting to 3 liter pots. SSH1&2 should be showing sex later on this week...or I hope so. I'm always anxious to see how many of what sex I get :)

I have very limited experience with hydro but you're right about pH. About a year ago I tried a ebb/flood grow but had so much trouble I converted it to soil. I just don't have the time right now to fiddle with a hydro. I live in an apartment too. I can break down this soil grow in my hydrohut in an hour. It'd be a lot harder to do that with a hydro.

regarding pH...I had a HELL of a time keeping pH stable. The water here is hard but I didn't think it was thatbad. My problem was pH stability. I'd get it to 6.5 and 12 hours later it was back over 7.0. I suppose I could have installed a small RO and solved that problem, but I didn't feel like it so I just do soil right now.

Obviously I don't know, but I would think you could keep mothers indefinitely in a DWC environment. Why do you think you can't? Or do you just like to flower out mothers after a while anyway?

I'm hoping for 3-4 girls on my grow. 3 would be ideal for what I want to do IMO. I'm not obsessed with yield. I just try to grow the healthiest plants I can...then trim/train them for my limited space. Yield will be what it will be. I do believe that I'll get between 7 and 8 ounces this grow if I get 3 nice girls. It'll also dpend a lot on which phenotypes I get. The NL/Skunky phenos will yield a bit more than the haze pheno I had last grow...at least I believe so.
It'll be fun seeing how all that plays out.

Now that my plants are in 3L pots, I have gone to 30ml/gallon of PBPro Grow. So far SSH1&2 seem to be tolerating it well. I'm going to push these plants a bit more than the last grow. I'm also going to use 12/12 at least initially. I think I'll get better yield than using 10/14 like last time.

Sooooooo keep up the good work!! We'll show these folks what a great strain Shanti's SSH is!!!

Yehawwww

My SSH buds from last grow are smelling sooooooooo good curing in their jars :joint:

Hey Pedro

I Flower my mothers because of root rot mainly after a few months in the DWC I seem to lose control of it. That and I love to throw a big one in my room from time to time lol.

Well here we are after a bit of cloning.


All the girls look happy and are doing great in the cab.





I took 15 clones on Friday . I only need 8 but a friend of mine has MS and I have been supplying him his meds. He decided he wanted his own grow so im hooking him up.


The clones are in a EZ cloner with a 8in dome they are getting misted 3 times a day with RO water with some superthrive in it. I am using Shultz take root as a root stimulator. I have pulled about 100 clones to date and have used both Shultz and Clonex I have had the exact same resuls with both 100%. The clonex is about $29 the shultz is$4.99. Guess which one im going with from now on LOL

Happy Growing everyone.
