Nirvana HK & Bubblicious

[bc.trip]

This is my third grow. Looking to get a good mom out of this.

Strain: Bubblicious(7) & Hindu Kush(3)
Medium: Hempy, %100 perlite
Nutes: Earth Juice 3-part(Grow, Bloom, and Micro)
Veg. Light: 60 watts, CFL
Flower Light: 150 watt HPS

I'll be vegging these until I can clone and sex them. Then I'll toss the guys and let the female clones continue to flower so I can get a good idea of what each potential mom has to offer.

Sweet man, where did you get your Bubblicious from? I'll be here and watching...

Bubblicious came from attitude.

bc.trip, lol we have almost identical grows going on (4 Bubblelicious and 2 Hindu Kush). Mine is just a little farther along but not by much. We will have to compare notes with each other as they go along. You can check out mine here:

Good Luck bro!

Actually I had to take out the bub and water. Will need to transplant them to 1/2 gallon bags as they are needing water daily now. Took the opportunity and snapped a couple of pics, Bub at day 15 HK at day 9:

it's been forever since i've posted anything. just sort of fell off with life, you know? anyways, things are going well. i've sexed the group and removed the males, and i've continued vegging the plants(other than the two i threw in the flower room today).
so here's whats going on:

i'm keeping these as mothers for now. There are two bubblicious and two hindu kush. the hk are the smaller two(they seem to have a slower growth rate, not just shorter height).
HK

Bubblicious

these two i just put in the flower room today. bubblicious and the power skunk. PS on the left.

hopefully tons of good bud sites

Bubblicious is getting big.

 

[bc.trip]

i forgot to post these:
made a bubble cloner from an old air pump and p.f. chang's take out containers.

it can hold about 8 clones. a piece of reflectix insulation(aluminum covered bubble wrap basically) holds the clones in place. one lid sits on top of the other.

where the magic happens. no roots in this pic. i'll try to get some up as they develop.

thats a great looking cloner. i love that design. i bypassed containers just like these not thinking i could just flip it over . and ingenious use of that foil gotta try that blocks light and holds in place.

Nice grow.

 

[bc.trip]

these aren't good pics, but there's not to drool over just yet. i threw in one of the two hk in there. it's not one that i'd like to keep as a mom, so it's this or the trash. seems like the ps has stretched a lot compared to the bubblicious. she got tied down a little more just before the pics, so you can't really tell.

 

[bc.trip]

the bubblicious in flower is having some problems. the newer growth is pale green and there's been some yellowing on the bottom. i'll post pics tonight. i think it's either an n deficiency or stress from the transplant. i gave 'em a good boost of N today, so hopefully i'll see some nice, dark green growth show through. (copied and pasted from my journal on another site)
and, as promised, here are pics:
next round's clones

i'm happy with my first attempt at it

here's the bubblicious in flowering

as you can see the newer growth is yellow/pale green at the moment

and both in flower

the power skunk is shooting up

 

[bc.trip]

the bubblicious has started flowering. here are some pics of the bud sites:
front left

front right

back right

side shot

 

[bc.trip]

a lot more pistils have been forming on the ps. i didn't really think to get pics of it, so you'll have to wait for tomorrow.

 

[bc.trip]

ok so here's a pic of the power skunk's new pistils. i'm thinking this'll be day 1 flower for her.

the clones

both of these are from B7, one of the bubblicious still in veg.

this is from the hindu kush i've still got (got rid of the other, genetics were no good)

and the one on the front right of the first pic is from B6, the bubblicious in flower. i'm not sure if that one will make it. the hindu kush has done the best with cloning. of course, with only one i can't tell if this is strain/mother based or dumb luck.

one of the bubblicious moms has had some browning on some leaves and pale green new growth. this is the only problem i'm having. i'm hoping that when i get my g.h. flora i'll rid myself of some of the issues i've faced with earth juice.
and i'll probably take a couple of cutting from the power skunk in the next couple of days so i can have a mom for that strain, too.

 

[bc.trip]

i'm still having a bit of trouble with the bubblicious in flower. it's a yellowing followed by burning at the tips, but it doesn't start at the bottom. it's the "older" newer growth(if that makes sense).
i'm using extra strong earth juice as according to the bottle, in about 5 parts bloom 4 parts grow(no nitrogen in the bloom).
i've had to use baking soda to adjust the ph. my nute mix goes in at about 5.8, but it's ej so i'm sure that it rides up as it sits in the reservoir.
anyways, any ideas as to what this looks like it may be would be great.

Check this thread mate: http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=11688 Not too sure what it is as I'm no expert...it also looks sort of like plastic offgassing as seen in tents. http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=103659

Hope you find a solution
