DAY 31 - Flip Flop and Fly Lights {12/12}: 600w HPS ~~ Nutes: 555ppm ~~ ph: 5.8 ~~ Temps: 71-81 ~~ rh: 35% Status: Transitioning to flowering, day 3 of 12/12 ------------------------------------------------------------- So Ginger is looking big and healthy and has enough branch to clone... so that's good enough for me to take some cuttings and get her ass to flowering! Her leaves are getting big and there's plenty of room in the flowering space. I hope to see some pistils soon Other than that not much to report, she has no issues that I can see and she doesn't complain about anything, I really like this girl. She is loving the new 3 gallon bucket already, and that's something that I really notice with coco, there is not any transplant shock that I can see. I've yet to see any plant pause with this stuff, I checked on her 3 hours after transplant last night and she seemed a hell of a lot bigger. This stuff blows me away sometimes... Here's a couple of quick crappy ass HPS shots, didn't have time to get nice pictures before our unknowing housemates got home Family photo, that's her cousin Amber on the right. * Jump to next update *
Why thank ya ma'am, your ladies are looking pretty good too. You know I may have to sport a pimp hat again now that I have some ladies in flowering Yeah I'm not concentrating on yields right now - I just want to get these babies through and budding, but I'm hoping to get at least 2 oz dry from Amber, no idea on Ginger here, but 1-3 ozs is pretty normal for the quick switch. With clones i'll have a scrog or sog going for better yield, right now I'm holding auditions for who want to be that big yielder next run... I love this coco man, not as fast as DWC hydro, but it's faster than soil IMO. It's a real happy medium, and I'm not even trying to maximize anything at this point - just quick basic runs and I'll tweak 'em as needed. I'm anxious to see some mature buds with this stuff though, I have a good feeling...
Looking good Ed! I run 18/6 as well, the onyl time I'm running 24 is when I am rooting cuttings and on the fresh transplant to get them established. Then I kick them back to 18/6 for a month or so before moving to flower.
Thanks herb! Thanks for tuning in man! Right on, I am lucky to have MrsEd helping out with that I hear ya man and I like the same schedule, I really need to put my clones under 24 but right now they are bumming light from the veg area LOL
DAY 44 - Confirmed Female Lights {12/12}: 600w HPS ~~ Nutes: 555ppm ~~ ph: 5.8 ~~ Temps: 67-74 ~~ rh: 35% Status: Flowering - week 1 ------------------------------------------------------------- Ginger has really put on some good growth lately, she's getting tall and bushy and is showing lots of vigor. She is totally slacking on the budding though. She first showed pistils on day 8 of 12/12 and is really taking her sweet time about forming some flowers, which surprises me since she is supposed to be a fast finisher. As soon as I saw pistils I gave her a Big Bloom blast (.5 cup/gal), I'm sure she'll start girl'n up real soon. Sorry for my slacking everyone, work has me in a cage lately and has put a hurtin on my GC time. I'll be back to regular form in a couple of weeks, but I'll still keep posting pics This is the most sex action on the plant right now. I have the feeling she'll be hairy this time next week. * Jump to next update *
Oooooo, so beautiful! Things are looking good in the Coconut Grove! I would like to order a Mai Tai and just sit back and chill with a joint in your Coconut Grove. Ah yes, it's nice in here... Is that a skunk I smell?
The scale and perspective make everything wonky. If that's a 3 gallon pot then she's a pretty big plant already. Got a bit more growing to do.
Photoshoot planned in Buzz's honor if these housemates would get the hell lost all at one time at some point this week.
Shots of the Eds getting alcoholed up on Mai Tai's! FTW!!!!!!! That's what I love, creativity. I can't wait to see them. Can you smoke a fatty too? What am I thinking the bud's the main attraction, besides you two of course. As for the annoying housemates, can you kick them out, politely for sure, so we can get our show? I finally made it! I still have to go p/u ma kiddo though in a few minutes.
