SGKA's SSH and blueberry summer fun

[sgka]

This is the summary of the past, harvest date upcoming soon, but fun to share anyways.

Normally I keep this SOG tent running fairly consistently. We went to Italia back in April and my auto reservoir crapped out (5 gals were in here as a temporary filler to reduce water load- or so I thought), so I had to start clones anew. These were taken before I left, and thrown into their 1gal square pot homes on May 1. Let them veg for one week, and began flower on May 8.

From left to right the rows are SSH, BB, SSH, BB, SSH, SSH. I have a 60 gal Rez I premix with jacks 3-2-1. The SSH prefers to have an EC of about 1.8-1.9, so I have to dial the mix back to meet that. pH of 6.3.

Soil is Berger brand soilless media, comes in a big bale. Watering schedule is 30 seconds on, 1 min off, 3 cycles, MWF. As they progress later into flower I have to up the last cycle to 1 min on.

One straggler, poor roots:

Replaced with a cutting that will be one week behind:

May 17- 9th day flower: growth picking up

Also have a second tent, 4x4 as well, in which I put the SSH mothers into bloom.

Here they are May 14 in veg:

And May 17:

Moving along. May 22.

Blueberry is showing its stretch early. Note: I remove all side branches that have any length to them for the first 3-4 weeks of flower:

And In the mother tent plants looking unhappy:

May 30- explosive growth. Still looking sorry, so I repotted them to 7 gals, thinned them out, and flipped the lights to 12/12:

Meanwhile in the SOG on May 30:

Chop chop day 52 for the blueberry. From seed she took 63, but the trichromes say take her

You kicked ass on that one, friend. Looks like K9 approves. Keep us updated on the next one too. Thanks for sharing your gardens with us.

July 4, 13 days remain. No signs of slowing down. Hoping the fox tailing and continued buildup slow down. Moved my dehumidifier and knocked the rh a little. Spaced the SSH out some more as well to give them room to breathe.

I love seeing yellow stickies with bugs stuck to them in a grow. Every garden should keep stickies in the garden. Thank you for sharing friend.

Thanks creeper. I also use the liquid form if gnatrol in my Rez mix. Forget the name at the moment, but the combo keeps the darn gnats down. Definitely a great combo

July 9: ripening up. Switched over to the finishing nutrients

And tent two, rack of spears

Dried photos of the blueberry. Wife tested the cure and smoke since the blueberry is too indica for me. Will certainly benefit from more time, but burns nice and smooth.

12 plants averaged out to 21.25g/plant on this cycle.


The SSH is still going. Leaves are starting to fade. Still hoping harvest day will be 7/17 for a total of 70 days.
