So guys I am new to GC but have been looking around quite a bit and decided to finally share my little venture. What I started with is a 4'x4' Gorilla tent with a HydroFarm ebb and gro system and a Kind K5 1000 for lighting, as well as carbon filtration, circulation fans, and all that good stuff,lol. As for my strains I went with 10-Cheese, 1-SnowBud, and 1-Jack Herer, all from Canuk Seeds. The latter of the 2 were freebies so we will see how they do. And here is what everyone really clicked on to see, SnowBud Jack Herer So what yall think?
I guess no one has much interest, in that case I'll update once everything's finished Instead of every week and let anyone who cares know how it turned out. Peace
Lol don't be hard on your self sometimes threads take off and then...I wonder how much room you will have when all those plants start to flower, might get a bit crowded?
Hello everyone or no one,lol. Thats okay I've always been able to self entertain. Lol. Anyway wanted to post a quick update, They have all been beefing up their stems like that! Looks great to me, like they already know the weight they are going to carry,lol. I also FIMed the tops of everyone and they are definitely bushing up nice. Oh and by the way Breakpoint I am sure these guys will fill out my space fully and crowd a bit but I also have an 8'x8' that will be setup in the next week. I am in the process of waiting on my cxb3590 cobs, when i get the lighting finished I will move a couple in the big tent.thanks for following.
Hey there it's not your journal man, I think GC has lost alot of visitors after they updated there website. It's been pretty dead around alot of the threads on GC since the website update. Your plants are looking great you can't got wrong with cheese. But the snowbud sounds interesting also. Have you used your Kind LED light in prevous grows?
Hi Coral ill happily sub in and keep you company although this is my 1st year growing I've had good results listening to some of the members here. Try looking around some of the more active threads and say hello...your welcome to look around my garden and maybe I can show you some of the members I've found helpful.... Good luck anyways Peace✌
Hey all thx for checking in! Ginger I haven't used my Kind before, I actually never used Led before. The last lights I used were MH and HPS but that was almost 15yrs ago. I recently got back into gardening and figured I would try out LEDs. My buddy had some great looking runs with his Kind 750 so I got the 1000 model hoping it would work good, time will tell but so far looking great. And Boots thx I will check out your thread and some others, I have quite a few runs under the belt but like I said that was over a decade ago.( all of a sudden I feel old,lol.) well if anyone's got any questions feel free to ask, and once again thx for tagging along! And Ginger I agree with ya 100% about the Cheese, I love that strain a lot! Hell I love it ALL!!
Looking good there, CoralMafia! Sounds like you got some Sativa-heavy genetics going on in there. By the looks of it, those ladies are looking ready to go into flower. I've grown Jack Herer before, she'll fill your tent by herself, if you're not careful. What are your plans for flower?
Hey sport thx for dropping by and thx for the compliments! Yeah they are definitely going to need more space so I am going to move them to my 8'x8' when I finish building my Cree CXB3590 cob setup, which should be in about another week.
Hey coral looks great in there your girls are thriving. I've been reading up on your led recently and they look brilliant on paper and promo stuff. But I was wondering if you have managed to play around with the par , spectrum and power settings or have you just ran full power? What's the heat like off that thing ? Sorry for the questions bud. Really like your setup tho. So I'm subbed would love to tag along. 😉
I just subscribed! Very similar setup to mine, maybe we can share experience to both gain knowledge. Since it seems hard to find specific and reliable info related to LEDs and hydro grows.
Hey everyone thanks for stopping in! To answer y'all's questions real quick, Igro- I haven't messed with the settings to much, i am running it at full power at the moment although I am planning on reducing the blue a bit over the next week until I go to strait 12/12. I just cut back the light to 18/6 from 24 to lower the stress from changing the time. As for PushGrass, I am doing 5 floods a day for 45minutes a flood, my PPM is at 1350 this week with my PH at 6.0. My Temp in the Rez is usually stable around 76 degrees. Also feel free to ask any questions if I can answer any I will and thanks for subbing in glad to have ya along. The next couple months should be awesome, I am setting up my 8'x8' this week so bring on the Flowering! SnowBud, Jack Herer, The rest in the tent are Cheese!
I was just flipping back through my thread and realized I never really posted any equipment pics so here we go, I love Ebb and Gro, Great systems, Can 9000 with C.A.P 4" blower Kind Led k5xl1000 And of course the best tents out there, my Gorilla, bad pic,lol, Well thats pretty much my components in a nutshell.
As for my Nutrients I am using Advanced Nutrients (always have!) I know some say they are all marketing but to each there own, stuff works great for me and if I find something that does what it should I seldom will change from it, I am using there 3 part base as well as Bud Candy, B-52, VooDoo Juice, Overdrive, and Big Bud. I also use Botanicare for CalMag and a bit of SuperThrive, That being said I would like to try some Terpinator on the next run and see if I can notice a difference. Anyone used the Terpinator and like it?
I keep all my nutes in check with BlueLab meters, I have there Truncheon stick and there handheld PH meter. BlueLab has some really great products, I will stick by them till the end.
Well if ya have any questions about any of the products I use or any info you have from using them feel free to share.
Not much to update except the babies are stretching quite a bit, Looking nice though, some are already sporting flowers,
