Pineapple express 600w veg 2k flower

Well, it has been a while since i've been on ICmag. Hopefully this thread gets some good attention. I've been a med patient for a while now, but i think i've finally got thinks perfect (ish). The last couple rounds i have been doing multi strain grows, but this time i decided to mono-culture. I have 7 pineapple express cuttings i took in october that have turned into some good looking bushes. I picked the PE because it it is a heavy feeder that stays a good green color the whole grow, and the buds are amazingly tasty and strong.

going to transplant into 2.5 gallon air pots, here in a week or so. I have been using biobizz products along with orca beneficial bacteria. soil is sunshine pro mix 4 advanced. hydrologic water filter with a K85 filter to get that nasty chloromine out of there.

eventually what i'm going to do is start some romulanxC#weed seeds to get a male, and polinate the PE to get my own variety.

the last pic is a bud from the last grow

take a seat and enjoy the show~!

 
forgot to mention; vegging currently under a 600watt MH powered by a generic digital ballast. the flowering room has 2x 1000 watt hps hortilux in 6" blockbusters. the veg chamber atm is a closet (nothing fancy).. but the flowering room is 10x5x6.5 grow tent. i'll post pics shortly~

i prob should have prefaced this by saying that i live in a house with another med patient that isn't really cool with the online publications. so that is why you can kinda see other plants, but i am not making a journal of those plants. anyways, tomorrow i am going to transplant into 2.5 gallon air pots. I am using pro mix number 4 advanced, amended with azoz and mycos 30 from extreme gardening (you can also see that we are using the exhale bags). everything i hear about this is out of control (every world record pumpkin in the last 6 years has been extreme gardening). ALSO I AM SWITCHING FROM HERE ON OUT TO EARTH JUICE not biobizz. that line is too expensive, granted everything worked exactly as advertised! perfect 10/10 in terms of effective product, but if you are buying the whole line, it is just shy of $400. so this is just an update to see how things look before the transplant, and i will see you all soon~!


 
and my opinion on Pineapple express. This is a unique plant to say the least. With a flowering period of 45 days and the extremely rigorous growth it is a perfect candidate for any garden. When you get to the final product you have fragrant aromatic buds that has the sweetest smell imaginable. I recently germinated some RomulanX#C weed (an oregon/washington strain from the 80's) and plan on crossing that with the PE just to get some bigger more robust plants. Super stoked~

Awesome purple bubba kush, how many days flower did it go? What temps was the room during flower? Quite the purple bud! I want to smoke that!
 
The purple bubba was a 55 day flowering, the temps got a little on the chilly side but nothing below 60! the main chola was 19grams!!!

a quick update; i got everything transplanted into the air pots. ammended soil with mycos 30 and azos. first water had some root stimulator, azos, and bioheaven. sorry i was only able to snap one pic before my camera's batteries crapped out. will get a bunch more in the comming days!~

another update

got the batteries charged and took some new pics. I think that i may have pruned a little to much of the lower stuff during transplant because they have been a tad slow on new growth. but all in all i'd say things are going to end well~

group photo under the hps, and then i took the one bottom right into the bathroom to get some shots under regular illumination. you can see that things are green, and how much pruning i had to do~

I think i have my ph prob under control. was getting k lock due to high ph wich was also giving me a Mag prob as well, but smooth sailing ahead. i'm going to be using the same single plant as an example for picture references. I chose it because it is in the middle of the pack in terms of rigor of growth. i'm getting stoked about these, they are looking like they are going to take off. meanwhile some pics~

 
i'm trying a new photo resizeing program to see if i can get better quality photos in the best detail. here is an quick pick of the pineapple side of the room, they are looking absolutely amazing. prob pull a full lb off the 7 PE~

 
the last update before i switch things to flowering. just a reefresh each side of the grow tent is 5x5, two 6" air cooled 1k (hortilux). on my side i have 7 Pineapple express and two chronic. the chronics were gifted to me from a friend, that would be the reason they don't look quite as healthy >< . but i'm sure they will end up being some decent buds~
