1st Time Growing Pineapple Express in DWC (43 days almost ready)

Discussion in 'Hydroponic Growing' started by zeroshawdow, Mar 27, 2012.

  1. What is the experience with G-13 Pineapple Express ? I have one in DWC and she is 43 days into flowering and from the outside looks almost ready, like 75% Orange Hairs, however under the microscope looks like 75%Cloudy and 25% Clear, no amber.

    I have never grown her or smoke her, I got her as freebie and so far I'm impressed with what she can do.

    Is she this fast or is just the DWC ? This my 1st time using DWC. is this one of the benefits of the DWC or P.E. is fast strain ?

    Thanks
    :wave:
     
  2. A dialed in DWC grow will finish earlier than anything else, but not much more than a week sooner. But you could be getting pretty close, PE is about a 55-60 day strain is it not?
     

  3. From what I gather around, yes ! 55-63 days seems avg.

    However I will show pics of mine tonight.
     
  4. If some one can tell me what is wrong highly appreciated

    This is the P.E. @44 Days Flowering

  5. uhhhh... the buds look good... but those fan leaves scream no water or root rot... lets see those roots

    if its rot... i'd harvest now before the buds get infected... your have smoke right now... hopefully you ran your bucket out of water... if its rot... cut your losses and harvest right now
     

  6. I will shoot a pic of the roots. I'm almost sure is that, but I don;t want to accept it just yet ! lol :laughing: If you know what I mean :laughing:

    Never the less, I'm impressed because the buds look perfectly ready ! I have never grown this strain before, but she is a keeper if she ends in 44 Days !

    I know, I know is Rot ! Man ... that doesn't sit too good with the Tea for DWC !
     
  8. don't use that tea till you know what your doing.... if you know what i mean

    cut the plant right now... remove all those fan leaves and start drying your plant... your entire plant is way messed up.. but this is one opinion... maybe someone else will have a better opinion... but i'd cut my losses.. your buds look great... the rest looks really close to garbage and throw up

  10. I don't think you lost anything... and it should smoke awesome... awesome vid
     
  11. nice video looks like u need more oxygen in the bucket
     
  12. nice catch... those crappy blue air stones are junk... and they fail super quick... upgrade to a micro pore air stone... their expensive but worth it... maybe the increase in oxygen and you no longer using Tea won't produce the same results you had this time....

    I hope you update with harvest pics, cure pics and a smoke report... im subbed...
     
  13. I know indeed why the infection. My AirStone are Big Air Stone, lot of Bubble, I certainly doubt it was becuase low Oxygen Levels. However the infection start because the Air Tubing got cut off loose from the Air Pump and I did not realize it after 3 or more days.

    Good thing I got more clones coming out !

    Thanks Guys !
     
  14. Might try Pondzyne to help control root rot. Cheap, at hardware stores, a small tub will last a life time.

    Soooo you figured it out huh. That's good. At least it wasn't the ewcs. I was like, wtf??? Lol. Damn, that sucks though.
     

  17. That right my friend ! I do not blame the EWCT ! Although raised my eyebrows with what just happen, however I like to pause the situation and analyze it before I pass the final judgement. No worries I strongly beleive it was USER_ERROR_EWCT!@#$ ! lol

    Believe it or not I will try it again the EWCT in DWC but taking care of the mistakes I did.

  18. I use hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in my hydroponics set up and it works wonders! Not only does it kill all of the bad diseases/fungi, it delivers extra oxygen to the roots. I noticed a big difference since the day I started using it. Plant grows faster and roots turn white. Very good stuff and cheap too. I would recommend it!
