Greetings and welcome, this journal will be for my mother room. Have a seat and pack a bowl of your fave, I've got some fresh squeezed lemonade and iced tea for the cotton mouth, and hopefully we will learn from each other. If you have advice, please feel free to offer in a kind and constructive manner. I will post pictures and movies of my process from time to time and try to answer any questions to the best of my ability . Strains and number of are, ACDC, 1. Omrita Rx3 x Land-race Peruvian #2 (my cross), 1. Omrita Rx3, 1. Phantom (Cherry Pie x GDP), 5 . Blue Cheese x GDP, 1. Medium; Soil/ rock wool for clones. Soil type: Veganic (brand eco scraps) Pots : 7 gallon Smartpots and assorted Lights: two 4 ' 4 bulb T5HO 216 watt fixtures (bulbs are even mix of flower and veg)and two 15 watt all blue led high power spotlights Nutrients: Blue Planet Nutrients Elite 3 Part and full line of supplements for hydro growing (it works just as well in soil) I have used this stuff for three years and I am very happy with my results. Pests and such: Sierra Natural Science, just started using SNS, and i am wondering why i did not before.
I took some pictures the other day, I wil post after editing,also busy trimming this years outdoor crop.
Been busy with harvest of this seasons outdoor crop. I had to pull the Omrita Rx3 x Peruvian, she did not make the transition back to veg.
Strains Grown this year are as follows, most are my crosses from last year. I have left some buds on to see what they look like super ripe. Female listed first in crosses Seed my cross Romulan x Sour D. , she's a keeper, and is very effective for pain and mood. Looking forward to the cure and its effects. Seed my cross Strawberry Couch x Sour D. , damn girl, sweet and skunky, this one will get you funky, and your butt will want to move. Seed my cross Hash Plant / G13 x Sour D (my Purple Fairy), she turned purple, but later than i like for Oakland's climate, she is potent. She did give me veragated leaves, but the flowers needed longer. Seed Durban Poison, always a winner, but the buds for me are too light and airy. Seed my cross Durban Poison x Sour D. now we're talkin! This one is a winner as well. Sweet anise and bubblegum smell combined with a denser nug, closer nodes ,and more branching. Seed my cross Peruvian #2 x Sour D. Damn ! Another stellar cross of a land-race with a proven stable winner. Seed Sour D, always one of my faves, and does not disappoint. Seed my cross Omrita Rx 3 x Peruvian #2, very stoney and lemony, a shorter bush than the Peruvian, closer nodes, denser nugs, oh yeah! Seed my cross, Blue Dream x Sour D , this one smells like cheese, and i love cheese. Clone Super Lemon Haze , in a pot ,she got pulled near the end, she was a small plant and had a spider-mite infestation. This was three weeks after stopping the SNS systemic treatment and at the height of a heat wave. Clone Blue Berry, nuf said. Clone The White, eh, had mold problems near the end, none of my other plants did. The buds that were harvested proved to be decent and stoney. But the mold issue puts her out. Clone Ogre, holy shit balls, one of the most narcotic of the group, great pain killer and mood lifter. Clone Omrita Rx 3 ,she is always in my grow from now on. Clone ACDC , this plant is not a normal cannabis or hemp like plant. This one vines out like a tomato plant. The buds are very open and airy, and covered in trics. She is also very bushy and put out a bunch of leaves. At 20 % CBD she is a keeper. Papaya, not impressed with the size.
My plants did not make the switch to revegg, so i went to Harborside and picked up an Omrita Rx3 clone and two acdc clones. all other clones are well and growing.
Hey Grass City!! its been a while. I had a few life things to take care of, and while that happened a plague a fungus gnats descended on my ladies soil and proceeded to copulate . I tried a "natural" bug killer and i think it seriously harmed my GDP x Blue Cheese I have 32 cuttings from her before she started giving up. I have placed her outdoors along with the rest of the soil based plants that had gnats.. I then bought and used SNS 209, Bam! killed the bugs ded! Bought and set up a DWC system 4 5 gallon buckets 6" net pots. New clones (gnat and pest free)Candyland, Blueberry Haze, OG Kush and ACDC. I have 3 cuttings from my original ACDC (branches that broke during moving outdoors) and 4 from Omrita Rx3. I used some SNS HydroBiotics and some SNS 604A , temp is 61f, ph is 6.5, ppm 440 (as per my tri-meter). Soon I will be giving them the 1st feeding of Blue Planet Nutrients. I have uploaded more pictures as well.
the dwc project is off. Just could not kill all the algae. I switched back to my tried and true soil as a medium. I did loose the Kush, managed to save the rest. When i have room later in the spring i will try a bucket or two, just to get my skilz up. View attachment 133859 View attachment 133858 View attachment 133857
Keep them in soil. They will grow better and the bud will be less harsh. Soil provides great results when done properly. No need for harsh chemicals.
Hey , Kronicly Insane, thanks for dropping by with some advice. I have been growing in soil for many years. I wanted to try something different. I don't use harsh chemicals unless i am stripping engine parts that require it. The soil i am using is 4 corners organic. \t \t
k, good news, all is well and under way. View attachment 135501 View attachment 135500 View attachment 135499 View attachment 135502 View attachment 135503
