High wadds! Congratz on the harvest! great job on the screen as well, looks like it'l work out fine for you. Have you done any topping on them puppies yet? It would not hurt to do so a bit.
Peace and keep em green, bugout

HEY GUYS!!! Thanks for the Kind words and advice about tipping.

And YES it was a great harvest for all!! Been really stoned for weeks

Next batch of clones are ready, Mango's and Super Skunks. I will definately top them, in addition with the screen, yield should increase.

Got two going this time just to see if I get more than 1 in the same space.....

I am very happy with the screen, working well, lots of nice bud sites. ( i just noticed i was under feeding the plants, they seem to be really booming now)



Went 12/12 Yesterday. Here are todays pics.

[waddo]

Huh? The pics didnt work...

[waddo]

Todays Pics.... These babies are stretching big time.... I can really notice a difference with the screen , the plants are so different.... It will be interesting to see if i get a bigger yield.

Did a Nute change to Bloom Nutes today.

You can see the canopy is still quite even, i have let them stretch...

Today:

[waddo]

Well I am about 6 days into 12/12, i am noticing the white hairs of the Beautiful Super Skunk starting to appear...

In Veg I used the screen to tuck them under, now with in flower i let them stretch, and now i start to tie them down a bit using the Screen to tie to, works real well.....

Next batch i will be using the screen a alot earlier into their lives.......

If you look closely you can see in these pics how i have tied the taller "Tips" down, I tied about 14 or so down or outwards.... it really increased light penetration .....

Im not sure in the total of "Crowns" to be....

Today I flushed and added the Bloom nutes @ 1.4 EC . Vega Flores.

I found i was under fertilising my plants,,,, which was good as they still grew well but i think they would have been bigger if i fed em better...

Took 6 Clones today .... Got two Mangos "canna cup 3rd 2002", and 6 Super Skunks... running them on about 120w CFL @ 14hrs Daylight. These bitches will be tipped

[waddo]

Todays Pics..... Screen is freaking me out, not sure if it will yield better ... time will tell i suppose

[itty53]

May I ask your yield from that single bucket/400 watt? It was surely impressive.

[waddo]

Gday, itty53, yielded just on 9ounce when dried. I was stoked. The weed is so strong its a great stoned, or should i say wasted .

Tried two plants this time, i think its better just one with more room than try pack two in...

Im about 6 days from another harvest..... Pic Below.. this grow was two plants...

I am now the proud owner of a 600w HPS, so as soon as these have been harvested ill be increasing my grow space and running a sweet total of 1000w and 6 Super Skunks!!!!!

Awesome thread waddo, great pictures! Those plants look incredible- they are so HUGE!

[willydog]

NICE plants and I must say, avatar, waddo! Looking forward to checking out the new setup when you have it complete.

[waddo]

Thanks!! Super Skunk is awesome to grow and to smoke... me mates cant get enough of it

While lying in bed last night i thought, Ok, time to see what the trics are doing, i cant wait to harvest but will leave them until optimum peak.

Woke up this morning, had a coffee got real stoned, then I pulled the Microscope out of the cupboard. I usually take some samples from about 5 different areas of the plants. I simply snip a single blade from a dank looking leaf from top and middle of the main buds.

On the average I have about 50% cloudy, some are still clearish. ABout 5 days to go i am thinking.... On the "Brown Hair" side of things I would say 55-65%.

Been on PH'd pure water for a few days. I also put some cannazym in, its meant to increase yeild and taste, anyone tried it? Though i think i should have put it in earlier, the roots are white as snow so i never added anything but the nutes.

More Pics on the way....

Hey Waddo!
Nice grow! Those buds look text book. Did a test run with some bag seed in the RDWC system hope you caught those. If not I will be posting some new pics in a new thread here in the next 24 hours or so. I will send you a PM when I get them posted. The SS Minnow is one of the best strands, and you did a great job with it! I am also really happy to hear you got 9 Oz from one bubble bucket. The test run is currently 3 out of 4 buckets in my friends and they are huge. Should be harvesting in 3 or 4 weeks so I will keep you posted my friend. Thanks for sharing you run with us!
Super

wow, i wish i was where you are.. I'm digging that resivore set up, i hate manualy watering every single plant, i KNOW there's a better way!

that rootball is HUGE! i bet its because your water levels dont fluctate like mine do (when i compare it to my lower slung root balls, the mass of light skinny roots on my plants seem to be about half way down the bucket, i can only asume because they drink water so fast it doesnt get used to water being up high, i go through about 3 gallons in 2 days on my big plants)

Anyway, if you could PM a basic discription of your res set up, i'd love to copy it!

and 9oz per plant? GAWD DAMn! my dream goal is 8-12 oz per plant.. you rock man!

/me giggles and jumps up and down like a little kid.

Very nice buds! I'm just starting my DWC, I hope it turns out as well as yours. With the screen in place how do you swap the bucket for reservoir changes? Or are you using an 'addback' method with less water changes?

High wads! Very nice run! congratz!
Peace, bugout
