Update: 3/28/12
In the last couple of days.I have put all the lady's into flowering cycle 12/12 and taken out the veg area.
Tonight I will change most 2700k bulbs to 6500k bulbs something like 10-12 (26w cfl ) bulbs
I picked up some Sunleaves jamaican bat guano 1-10-1
For the late flowering Lady's:
Per Gal. Added: 2 1/2 TBSP Guano -Soaking 48 hours-Then-
1/4 tbs M.O.A.B
1/2 tsp Hydroplex Bloom maximizer
1/8 cup Molasses
I will check pH before I use. I like it at 6.5-ish..
For the Early flower Lady's:
1 1/2 TBSP Guano -48 hour soak-
1/8 tbs M.O.A.B
1/2 tsp Hydroplex Bloom maximizer
1/8 cup Molasses
I am just taking a best guess as to what to add. If anyone has a thought. Feel free to share...
Update on the Lady's.
GK 2.
Looking good and getting better. I let her just free grow.
Not topping or training just watered and defoliated at about 4-5 week flowering to open other bud sites.
This might have been the cause in the slow growth since( to be exspected) yet over the last couple days
she has been picking back up.
I am hoping after feeding with Guano and Molasses one more time lol
She will finish and I can flush her for her cut...
Thought's:
I dont think I want to just chop the whole plant at one time.
I have been reading about how much more one can pull if taken as the
Nugs rippen.
Since, no plant rippens all it's fruit at the same time it makes sence to be more selective.
SSH 1.
When she started flowering she flew to like 5' in just couple weeks and I had topped her.
She was going great and looking hot. Then spider mites and sprays and a little heat.
She was not so hot, yet shes strong and came right back to life and is looking good.
Hope the yeald starts to show up the next couple weeks.
SSH is supposed to be hardy and takes nuits well. So Im going to up her feeding just a hair.
SourD 1.
Same as SSH1 but took the bigger hit from Spider mites. She will be ok and is coming back to life as well.
Her yeald is looking good so far and her bud tips have this awesome dark red to it.(Hot) ...
GK 3.
Going good. Buds are popping and forming. Free grow-Nothing but water and lite.
Flowered while short maybe 8-9 inches tall. Stayed semi short 24-30 inches
Lite feeding as she is easy to fry.
Thinking I might not touch her at all (no defoliating) to see how she compaires to GK2
SCROG.
Started with 2 containers each having 5 plants.
Early on 1 of 3 GK died ( was always a weak clone one of my 1st)
when I fed the SCROG Nuits, the last Gk started to fry also from my 1st or 2nd clone try.
Then I sprayed for mites and that was that. No more GK in the SCROG
container one:
I now have 3 x SSH & 2 x Sour D Though they all look the same now
container two:
I now have 2 x SSH
All are at the net and 3 are well into the net.
Thinking I should top the taller ladys.
I have been able to keep all growth under the net so far and I am leading the main branch
towards the corner and then along the sides hoping to 100% fill bottom of the net
then run back across the top.lol
Not really sure why, just sounds like a good thing to do.
The plan:
Both containers side by side
as the many Colas start to form and grow upward.
I will take all the growth along the side and use bamboo poles to lead outward
and let all growth in the center grow strait up.
By the time the SCROG get to this point
all the other Lady's from my 1st wave should be cut and drying.
They will have the center of the room and will have a chit load of light on top.
I know this net wont hold up so I'm not sure what I will do once they really get going.
Thinking bamboo poles. I got to keep reading I guess...lol
2 Training SSH in 5 gal buckets:
Growing fast and taking the training well.
These are the clones I took from the top cut of SSH1 after flowering.
Used the domes she still rooted fast and wanted to flower but gave up and veg a little.
Now there in buckets and back into flower cycle.
Loving SSH...
2 GK in cups.
1 is growing slow yet coming along.
The other little one
is a freak of nature and not sure what it will do.
thinking nothing. wont grow wont die. just is.
Thinking I will bonsai the one growing and put outside for the summer as a mother for later.
The freak will stay in the flower room and have to decide what it wants to do.
I have read a few stories of hard stressed plants that survive
have been known to explode like never before or again.
dare to dream the green dream...
6 x SSH Clones.
I am tempted to try and toss 2 into the SCROG and hope they grow in time to get enough lite.
I might just toss in 1 gal grow bags with bottom cut out and place in the empty side of
Container 2 as to raise into net while still short. Let root grow down bag into container.
The other 4
I plan to Bonsai outdoors over summer as mothers.
Seed Grow. Bag seed Male- 1 SSH Fem - 1 GK Fem.
Bag seed male.
Fat and pumping out tons of pollen. Looking like seeds are starting. growing fast.
SSH. Flowering nice into week 2 and covered by pollen. She stretched and I top cut to keep same size as bag boy.
GK. Short and flowering. so far so good.
I really need start training the SSH in the next couple days.
Final Thought.
For my first try at growing I'm happy so far.
I am learning what I need to know little by little and feel I have dodged bullets thanks to all
the fellow growers . The DIY,journals and incites people have shared are
a time saver for sure.
The fact that you can start out and save journals over the years (look back and go through the different grows)should prove to be worth the time it takes type all this chit.
So far I have a long way to go to get this first 2 waves done and smoked and I don't count Chic's before they hatch.
What I have seen and the Pic's I have are worth the effort so far and this is just the beginning for me so
I think I will chill here and go check the Lady's...
Yep,puff,puff,pass
