4x4 Tent - Blue Hash and A-Train

[smokingrubber]

It's been a real land race up in there lately. I was kinda writing Blue Hash off because she was really short and in the back, and didn't appear that the buds were fattening up much. Last night I spread her apart and found she is FULL of buds! She's gone from dead last in the race, to possibly the front runner. Absolutely amazing. We trimmed out some of the fan leaves hiding the interior buds. WOW is all I can say. The buds are small but rock hard... they look and feel like fat hairy gumballs. My next picture update will include some extensive pics of Blue Hash.

I might have to buy more of those beans today

You know how a dog shakes his leg when you scratch his spot? That's the way I feel when I smell Lemon Skunk

So far she's a winner. I will definately do her again soon! Very very very proper huge dense nugs developing. She's a perfect SOG plant imo. Thanks for the rep

My beans for my next run are giving me problems. Two out of ten sprouted. Two more had significant growth inside the rw but got tangled. I helped them out a bit, so that's only 4 that will probably make it. The rest are now in dixie cups of RO water, and I added two Lemon Skunk beans to the menu. I'm glad I started this a little early.

I bought some BushMaster and Gravity. I also got some FloraKleen for the final flush. I will probably add a weee bit of Gravity to the next rez change (middle of week 5).

Can some one tell me whether I should flush this hydro setup right now or not? I've heard conflicting theories, and I really don't know. If not, I will wait until the last 4 days before harvest.

You mean flush the plants that are flowering right now?

If so, why would you do that?

Yeah, the ones I don't wanna fuck up! I don't WANT to, but you hear so much cross-information I don't know what to believe. I bought the FloraKleen but I haven't used it yet.

I can't see the necessity of flushing unless you've made a mistake - do your plants look unhealthy at all?

My vote is for just waiting until the last few days to flush - just using logic, if your plants aren't telling you that anything's wrong, why would you change things?

Excellent point! Other than the fact they're about 3 inches too tall, they all look very health and happy. Thanks.

The March 2010 High Times Centerfold has A-Train & Lemon Skunk pictured. Brilliant!

Right now, my Lemon Skunk is one of the most amazing smelling plants I've ever smelled. If it finishes with half the flavor it's showing right now, I'm keeping every gram! It's not the most impressive plant to look at in the world, but I've got high hopes for the finished product. Yield will be medium at best, but it smells just like Lemonny Skunky DANK.

this month is high times big sky country. a look at montana's growing medical marijuana market.

sounds good for next month, cant wait. ordered my A-train today from the attitude and also got a real good freebie, super lemon haze from green house. your lemon skunk x super silver haze= 2008 and 2009 cannabis cup winner super lemon haze. also got bubba kush, kings kush, the church and power kush (i think), all from gh sept last one and atrain (t h seeds).

all feminized seeds also. thought is was a good deal, pay for 5 and get 5 free.

WOAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH brakes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm seeing some scary posts here man. Gravity? FloraKleen in the middle flower?

What did your hydro store guy sell you man? This is why I do hate this industry, this kind of shit is going to kill you.

Don't use gravity, don't use FloraKleen until the very final flush at the end of flower. I use water, call me crazy, but if you got sold FloraKleen then fine.

Gravity is buck wild and some plants love it, some plants just die or shock from it. It burns plants like crazy as it's just very very hot. You have to raise your lights when you use and it's best to finish out your first grow without all the bloom enhancers and other shit you hydro store guy tries to sell you.

There are some "bloom enhancers" that aren't as buck wild, but Gravity is a monster. We tried it on a few different strains in a friends grow on individual plants and the results varied wildly from strain to strain and from amount to amount. Lights raised and for how long, etc. You won't get it right the first time and you don't want to try it on your entire crop. You would need a baseline to work from anyway to know if it helped or not. You'll be aimlessly adding it the rest of your growing life. One simple hydro grow first, then experiment.

That sounds wise. I haven't added anything yet so I'm okay. I will wait for the end to flush. I'll also keep the gravity on the shelf. Thanks. Tried to rep you but not enough love for everyone else. Someone do him for me, and I'll do you

i guess u say it's your 3rd shot at growing... but it looks like the third time is the charm.

+rep on doing everything damn near perfect. I could tell you were on the right track when your first post showed an RO unit... very few people are lucky enough to not need one.

you got me wanting to read about (and maybe order) some more weed varieties with all these darn strains ur speaking of !!

Thank you! Glad to have you watching. It helps to have experienced gardeners looking over my shoulder. I'll be sure to keep you posted on all these varieties, they look good on paper

My first attempt at growing, wasn't really an attempt. Borrowed a friend's light and watered some plants in a barn basically. I just did what he told me to do. I learned a lot about what I didn't want to do!

My second grow wasn't really mine. It was my design and build, but it was my friend's money and his home. That time I learned a little about what did work, and a little more about what didn't.

So yeah this is my 3rd grow. Each has been more succesful than the last.

Next week I'm starting my 4th grow. The same friend who had my 2nd grow is moving in right next door to me. We're planning his garage grow right now (I'm going to do a growroom thread for the setup). Then I'll use that template to build MY new garage when I move in about 6 months! LOL I never plan that far out so we'll see what happens.

Thanks for following Gambler.
