Hey buddy, would love to hear what's up after harvest.
She was such a lovely lady!
Yield, fragrance, taste both inhale and exhale.

So I guess it's time for a garden update:
Well, being tied up super busy with home projects and getting hit with root aphids :fire: the garden had been suffering the past few crops.
So I had to take step back and reassess the program.
It seems that the OG based genetics are in the highest demand and can be a bitch to grow and get good yields but those are where I need to steer the garden.
I tried them in the vert orientation and the stretch is just waaayyy too much to deal with, so I have layed the garden back down horizontal again for now and am working more on canopy management aspects.
I have also returned to the media I began my cannabis growing journey with, coco.
Gotta give some shout outs here -
@hybridway2 for giving me the courage to lay down trellis in my space where it is hard to have access (gonna be tough but I can see the benefit already)
@Prawn Connery for turning me onto the CX nutrients. Still some fine tuning to do and haven't pulled down a harvest with them yet but the plants have taken a 180 health wise, and these are OG's!
@gr865 I have stolen many of your ideas for your coco feed system after seeing what a solid success you are having in the root zone area.

Now for a few pics, watering system just set up tonight and not finalized but this is gonna make things such a breeze :bigjoint:
These girls are still in week 1 since flip and I am all set for a second layer of trellis when the time comes :hump:

Thanks for the shout out my friend. I might make one suggestion, you should get rid of the clear tubing, mainly the out put hose because it will retain water in it and you run the risk of algae forming the the hose, the suction should drain back out but I would change it also.
Good luck buddy!

Definitely on the "to do list"
Just set up with what I had on hand for testing purposes.
Question, does 16 oz per minute sound about the same as what your able to get out of those bubbler stakes?
I went with the filter that has the built in 25lb regulator as the stakes definitely aren'y rated for full pump pressure :P

I am not sure, never measured them, I am not using them on this grow. Was not enough gpm/gph to run 24 of those, pressure was fine but just not enough water. I love the way they work and wish I could use them on this grow.
My 30 gallon pressure reducer is inline, but I took it off this grow and not sure I will need it with these dripper's I am using.

Thnx, but I have a feeling this ain't your first rodeo. Lol!
Looking real good there partna. I had Blood Diamond & Black Rose confused. Haven't seen your BloodDiomond yet.
Yeah, man. You got 4 beauties in there & can focus on the best flower sites. This will be nice. Big stretcher too right?
Now only if you had an led set up to compare it to. All the lights u win from party cup comps you could have a real decent 5x5 covered by now.
I noticed the prize lights went small this yr., like suitable for a party cup grow. Last yr was big gun prizes tho.
Staying tuned! Like the feeding set-up. Need to do the same. Took a few big hits with the girls drying out on me when I'm not around. Deff doing the drain to waste this next round. With those two things done this might actually become fun again. Lol!
I think you'll yeild mo betta bud this way personally. Small branches growing off big ones on the lower half of the plants never seam to come out good enough for the bag unless it's one of those strains. Like my old OBB. Every bud getting the least amount of light (even reflected off a white floor) would be sweet. But that's a rarity.

I will drop this info here since I think you may find it helpful. Keep in mind I am a DWC / water hydro lover for over a decade with many many plant species and I have went to perlite as media.

These are typical DWC root zones at harvest..

This is a root mass from top drip on Hydroton..

View attachment 4209481

Now this is a root system from a harvested Perlite plant... :hump:

View attachment 4209478

Now you tell me which looks like the healthier root environment??
I do also like coco too but not at this location. Dry out time between watering was just too long even with a healthy portion of perlite incorporated
It's all about the oxygen.

I will kind if keep this run of Blood Diamond OG Kush documented here even though it is not a vertical grow so that my bro's over here in the section that know what's going on can see how I do flatlander style vs my previous vertical attempts with this varietal :peace:

Day 21 and the lady's are looking spectacular on the CX nutrient line.
Laid down the second layer of trellis and did the leaf strip this evening. What a pita with access only from the front - hopefully the hard work pays off in big dense sticky chunker nugs :hump:
