The WHITE WIDOW club, Show off your grow

[RasDan]

Why dont you guys like my grow? Not one comment about my buds? Is there something wrong with my buds so you guys dont like em? Do the pics suck? Looks like dank to me? And the hash was wild? Seems like Ill get a lb of just this part off the plant? I thought getting a lb was cool? Oh well later dudes.

 

[dirtyhippy]

thanks for info. dont have cash for bigger pots and soil. anything else i can do? flush or r bigger than 3 gallon pots mandotory? not alot of space.

I got distracted and was going to tell you congrats.
My bad.

Yes man Your Grow fucking rules.
The 1lb isnt dried is it? you will lose a bunch during the dry process. But either way I hope I get that much off my grow. I dont have the powerful 1k but we'll see what my 400w will accomplish.

You must be pretty siked. is this your first grow?

So tell us some details that got you that plentiful harvest.
I'm listening.

~~Joe~~

 

[Joe Camel]

Seriously. that is impressive.
That is from one plant?
Thats more that I'll harvest on my current 3 bagseed grow.

I wish I could Rep you again.

 

[GanjaEnthusiast]

i'm stoked to see all of these white posts. I will be posting mine shortly after my ww/greenhouse arrives from attitude.

Right now its about 5lb when it drys it should be at least one lb. (I hope) But thats just the top 2/3 of the plant and that is not the 100gr top or a 60gr side bud.

Now fill us in on some details Ras. I want one pound yielders....

No shit! Me too!

Well the big thing I think is the hydro system I built. Its part DWC part Ebb and Flow and part a drip system. Then I use UVB lights three 26 watt uvb10 bulbs. I use a track and move the 1000 eyelux HPS light just about 2 feet. I have 2 of the uvb lights moving with the motor I use a vented reflecter with a big fan (8") pulled from a huge UPS system to pull the air out of the light. I make my own bud booster (molassas epsom salts raw sugar and stuff) that kicks ass. I use GH three part, bat and worm shit and cha ching to feed her. (cha ching at the end of budding) I flushed with my booster for one week and then fresh water to the end. I kept the PH at 5.5 through veg and 2 weeks into bud then I solwy let rise to 5.8 and kept it there tell the end flush. Plus I chant with her (just for good luck wink) and play lots of Reggae for her (ok now you know the truth its the Reggae that made her grow!!)!!? Oh and I grow em BIG this bad girl was allmost 6 feet. By the way I dont know if you can see it in the pics but the buds are heavily covered with long massive crystals.

 

[Joe Camel]

You put a lot into your grow and it shows RasDan.
I wish i could handle Hydro. Just dont have the investment for it anytime soon. im a Soil man. I love what you did though. i wont do anything you said but play music lol/

Got some Slightly Stoopid for them.

The setup is cheper then buying the soil I hear people use around here and you only need to buy it once and you dont have to get rid of it. For me getting rid of the soil is the hardest part of using it. I use $3.50 5gal black buckets one for a tank and one for a pot. A cheap $10 harbor freight water pump and a $5.00 wal mart air pump add a little love and thats just about it.

Ok...so more leaves at the bottom have fallen off today. All I heard was bigger pots, but I can't transplant them now. There is only about 6 weeks left, maybe less.
What could be killing them at this point? They were doing great, and I did not change anything. Any help?

 

[dangledo]

I have relied heavily on Fox farms nutes for over a decade... I actually have increased their doses by upto 40% in the past. Some strains can handle a heavy feeding. I have also had a blueberry that wouldnt accept any more than 3/4 strength. Guess you gotta feel em out.

 

[ripdamon]

Your temp is not the issue so lets concentrate on the medium. I recommend a transplant into a bigger pot. Use fresh soil with no fert or Nutes (short for nutrients) do not water right away. you want to give the roots a clean place to migrate to.
When you do water only water one side of the pot. make sure it is a measured amount of water relitive to your pot size meaning just enough water to moistin the soil mix but do not saturate the pot. Now this is the most impotant!! when watering or feeding your ph must be between 5.8 to 6.2 this will allow the plant to absorb the nutes remaining in the soil mix. Your girls could be suffering from nute lockup.
You need to cool the soil down from the salt build that has occured. You should notice expedential growth in a week. From there try to coax the root to move around the pot by watering/feeding on diffent sides each time. When weed is small it can not absorb the amount water you are giving them so the water has to evaporate completly before watering again. If you must nute them when they are young...no more tha 300ppm of food otherwise it is toxic. The imature plant will tell you when it needs food by tuning florecent green at the top. It will tell you it needs water when the fan leaves droop and there is no weight to the soil. Look for these signs before watering or feeding. Good luck bro

Ok thanks for the help. Last night was the first night I felt like they were going to be ok. They look better. I think I needed to let the soil dry out. Now instead of filling the pot till water runs out, then repeating the process after 2 or 3 days. I just share a half a cup of water to all 3 of them. I am going to take all the advise you gave me it was very helpful. I am to scared to transplant yet because they are so small and the soil brakes up to easy. I know that because the last plant that die the soil was still moist be it did not hold together. Again thanks

I always have watered after a transplant with a little of superthrive, hygrozyme, and Greatwhite always in the mix during veg., and alittle into flower. dry roots are dead roots. No doubt that you need time in between water to absorb and dry out. The 20 gallon pots I use, have gone about a week in veg, no more than 3 days in flower. I also use griffins spinout(coper hydroxide) to force the roots back into the middle, increasing surface area. If you have ever dug around after a harvest, you have undoubtedly come accross a large area in the middle of the medium with just your main taproot, and axial roots that put out feeder roots upto 5 inches away from taproot. That is a lot of unused medium. Then they just circle the pot. Griffins will help tremedously. Big roots, big plants. Pulling just under 400 grams of one plant. 3 month veg 3 month flower last winter, super sliver haze, tricky feeder. any way here are a couple more grow pictures. as well as a couple for eye candy.

just at 21 days flower.

thats good news sometimes a little neglect goes a long way. A tip to transplant...water thoughly the day before so the soil is compact. Should hold together. If not just do the best you can. I have had a couple fall apart and they turned out fine

 

[stonedloner]

Hey guys, just wanetd to check in & show you my first grow , reaching harvest.
...got one that is 8wks tomorrow, & a few more that are about 3wks behind her.
Have also built a flood-n-drain tray as an experiment, tat is at day 18 of 12/12 today.....don't have a clue what the hell I'm doing with it, but it seems to be going well...?

 

[Joe Camel]

Right On stonedloner, thats one experiment working out in your favor. looks dense.

~~Joe~~

 

[stonedloner]

yeah, going pretty well I think....I don't own any test equipment, just a simple ph kit. I use technofloras recipe for success, 3x per day, mixed full srength & let her rip. I just empty the res. every 10-12 days & mix new, so as to prevent build-up, since I can't monitor my ppm. I feed the used nutes to the soil grow.

 

[stonedloner]

under her dress...



that's it on the far left, taking up nearly half my bloom room!

@ about day 14-15 flower.
