The Official Hempy Bucket Thread

Not to be a jerk, but don't read the chart...read the plant. Are you over watering? Don't give up buddy, pull from your experiences and if this is your first time, be ready to fail. Failure should be something that's always in our minds, no matter what the experience level. But this plant in the picture is far from failure. Tell us a little more of the conditions and intervals you're feeding. And be sure to search the forums, especially the infirmary section, there is a wealth of information here, use it.

hi guys , this is my litlle plant white russian , she is 1 month old , the nutrient i gave is flora series , i feed her like the chart 7ml of grow micro and bloom in 10 L of tap water , the ph is about 5,8-6 , i don't know what to do anymore

she is the only one in hempy the others are in soil , and the same thing

You have the right nutes and about the right pH range... just switch to mixing them to the lucas ratio. 8ml micro and 16ml bloom per gallon.

GH has great nutes... but none of their information on feeding will grow awesome cannabis. LOL

Stay Safe!

Thank's for your support, I was afraid to do a burn , not the first grow, I've successfully grow wappa and Icecream, but it seems like it gives me great beats head this strain

Fellas my ladies are at 21 days of flowering. Doing great as far as I can tell. Nice buds forming up . Eatin the hell out of my nutes. I'm feeding every other day using a gallon + per plant!! Every third feedin is just water. My clones will be @ 7 days tomorrow and I'm gunna check a couple for root formation. Will this shock them to pull them out of my Wally World cloner? Is there some other way to tell root growth other than pullin one out and looking? How long can they stay in the cloner before needing a transplant? As for my outdoor patches I have 31 as yet but that number will fall as I take the boys out. They are looking real good too. Might be a good year . Just got a new phone, a HTC Vivid, so pics are soon to follow as soon as I figure that bastard out! ...

when the leaves start to yellow up it's a good indication that they are rooted. and it could also mean that they rotted and died. if they start looking yellow like nitrogen def, just pull one out maybe the smallest one, very gently. i dunno exactly what you mean by walmart cloner but i think i have an idea. you mean that popsicle maker with the long slender tubes? i would be rEALLY careful with that try opening the bottom of the tray and poking it up with your finger or a pencil. if you are indeed talking about that DIY cloner with the popsicle maker.

Hey everyone,

I've been using mini hempys for a while now, and they're great.
I'm curious, just how big of a plant can you grow in a full sized 5-gallon/20litre bucket? I've got access to a biggish greenhouse.

you can grow trees.

I don't use the walmart cloner so take this with a grain of salt...I wouldn't remove any clone to check progress. I would wait to plant when the roots came out of the bottom. I use rapid rooters and when the roots stick out of the side, I've found if I wait a few more days for more roots to come out then the plant transplants better and doesn't wilt or suffer shock. But that's with rr's.

high man, i'd suggest you wait another week, dubwise is right that you should wait until you see roots coming from the bottom.

...also, when you harvest the rooted cuts you should PUSH them out from the bottom rather than PULLING them out from the top, ...you'll do MUCH less damage to the new roots.

...i would suggest you leave your cuts in the cloner for a minimum of 14 days, by then you should see roots.

here's a few shots of some after 17 days.

...and here is a shot of s simple ram you can make from a penny and a pencil or a piece of dowel, ...it turns out that a penny fits in the tubes like it was made for the job, lol.

anyway, just be patient and you will be rewarded.

peace, SOG

Thanks,
That's like a 200 gram plant, or what?
Or alternatively, how big around/ how high?

 

[dubwise]

@spanishwilly: Yeah I think that's attainable, given a sufficient enough time vegging. IME a plant (heavy indica) vegged & LST'd for 8w can be up to 4' tall & the same or a little less in diameter.

Ok, thanks. That's great.

Yes I waited for my rapid rioters roots to come out bottom. As dub said the leaves started turning yellow. These ones were cut about two weeks ago. The solo cups were cut about 3 weeks ago. They r suffering some transplant shock but there coming around.

I grow 5 gallon hempies in a 5x5 tents under a 1k. With lucas formula and a 2 month veg I pull 4 plants out of the tent each weighing 10 ounces give or take. my plants usually finish at a height of 4.5-5ft. I suspect If I used a bigger space with the same amount of plants I could up the yield to 12 ounces per plant, It gets a little crowded in there.

I generally grow C-99, Trainwreck, powerkush.

 

[dubwise]

good stuff!

 

[Seedlin]

This is my 1st run 3 gal hempy's. Started with 9 plants ends with 4 ladies....My clones are lookin good as well I think. My grow tent is 4x8x7 with a 1kw light...

Your ladies are running the same as mine....

 

[bagada]

Heres 2 clones for a comparison. I havent had a successful hempy or bio bucket grow so they were both new to me. Keep in mind i nute burned the bio so its not really a fair comparison but it does show what a new grower should think about when trying hydro. Hempy was too easy and fool proof. I hope the bio bucket can catch up and show me its true worth.

HEmpy on the right, bio on the back left

 

[frunzulita]

guys have any ideea what the EC should have the hempy , now i run lucas formula 6ml/micro and 12ml/bloom in 5 Liters of tap water , and the EC shows at 0.5 conversion almost 1,3 and 650 ppm , what do you think ? its ok ? go up? go down ? the plants are looking ok , a litlle def of N, my plants are white russian , thanks for further answers

 

[bobman]
