after 9 grueling years from growing the shit is on finally.
Well, folks it seems some has come out of retirement after 9 yrs in solitary growing hell.
i have a couple clones vegging getting ready to make cuts and set up the veg area where the moms and clones will live for the most part.
1. GREEN CRACK
2. MASTER KUSH
3. AK47
4. BLUE DREAM
THE BLUE DREAMS WERE 3 RATTY ASS CUTS that were almost trashed, 1 was killed as it had no foliage growing and was going south very fast.
all my fault as i didn't do them right trying to shake the rust of my growing skills. they came from a very nice clone that i made 4 cuts from.
so potted up 2 cuts in one pot and 1 in the other. low and behold all of the leaf cuts have gotten new growth and are rooted of course.
about time i separate the two clones so they can have their own pot. already got the leftover pot/medium waiting for a transplant.
Green crack was damaged and i took the top off to make another mom. that has gone well and the twin dragon green crack that looks pretty good now is doing fine and waiting to be potted up. i did a root check awhile back and they were looking damn good. will likely repot her tomorrow to her final mommy pot. i should get 4 niece cuts off it. got some leaf issues that haven't been diagnosed yet. that's even though i have a picture guide to sick plants. i will still look further to diagnose the issue. i did a rapid ready ph probe check and except for on @ 5.O the rest were 5.75 to 6.5 in the pots 7 total.
have another green crack clone rooted and doing ok, but that really nice clone i made is having some issues that are pissing me off since that clone was perfect and rooted fine in the grow clone before being potted up. now, I DID USE ON THE BOTTOM OF A WHITE POT A LAYER OF GROSTONES then a mix of grostones worked into miracle grow moisture control potting mix. i'll do a root check to see if the roots have gone to the bottom and don't like it with nothing buffering them medium wise other than grostones. as i don't water that often that may be the issue and didn't think of it until now.
the master kush is ready to be topped to make a nice mommy back up. the AK47 was a runt but is growing some. that shit has weird vein coloration that i have not seen on the sick plant charts before. it's always something that makes u go grrr.
i have been growing them with small led's 3 of them now used to light all 7 pots. soon to be eight pots. will have to test the 250 mh to make sure it works. if so it will be the veg/clone light. if not i'll get a 4 bulb T5 and call it a day. i haven't tried to make them take off cause i have a window of time i need to be in that has to happen once the coast is clear.
mother will go into epsoma organic potting mix and fed alaska grow and likely get alaska bloom for when it's time to take cuts from the mom.
K.I.S.S. style nothing fancy. then moms will go back on veg ferts only. i'll try to keep the moms small and will likely prune the roots back to the help with that during the potting up of the moms. i've never done it before but i'm not afraid lol.
by the time the green crack are ready to go and i pop a couple chemo seeds to have some power goodies the master kush should be ready to provide clones. tent is only a 4 x 4 so not going to put more than 10-12 pots in there to flower 2 gallons. hoping to get 2 zips per pot of quality bud. if i pull a elbow of quality bud i'll consider it a huge success. hell that will be my 1st. elbow haul. all my last growing was project oriented and not about bud production. now it's going to be the opposite buds 1st. and projects 2nd. i will do a small pollen chuck if i get a male or two from the chemo seeds. i don't know their exact orgin. but i do have chemo beans from meduser both the original ubc chemo as well as their updated version too. i want to keep them separate but will combine them later based on how they each turn out. only have 1 pack each.
will use a 600 hps digital non-dimable old school lumatek to flower. gorilla shorty tent because height was an issue if i need to move the tent into a secondary safe area. have brought just about all the gear ahead of time. medium = coco, nutes coc specific CNS 17, new filter, new fan etc etc. just need to loc down some tent fans and since the little once are so cheaply built and have issues staying on the poles once again a small item becomes a pain in the ass to buy. smdh
the pics will be from them being new to the cave to a slight progression. sorry if i get some out of order, u can sue me if you smoke a fatty with me. ijs top to bottom single pots . ak47, master kush and green crack
i'll toss up more pic's later. i should have been sleep and my damn head hurts. but i have 2 dr. appts today. smdh
