That is some sexy BJ there SS! Who breeds that strain again? Can`t be bothered looking back, haha. And a nice thing to try with your moms, and what I do at the Factory, is replace them after X number of cutting based upon pot size. For instance, I use 5 gallon Root Bags for my OG18 moms, and I grow them out with a topping, take 6 complete sets of cuts (about 6-10 clones), and the 3-4 strongest of the 5th cutting pass is designated to a separate area to regain the growth of mother to be discarded after pass 6. Been working for me for 4 years now, little maintenance and you say that I`ve had the same linage all along (some would argue traits diminish with cloning ... but I`ve yet to see it) :).

Keep us updated brother,

You ever fish Fletchers? I heard the pike and bass fishing is pretty good. Always wanted to try it in the summer. Only fished it once in winter. Hmmm...campin, fishin, smokin... sounds like fun! Maybe we could start a SS fest fishin weekend. Lol. Wish I could get a lay off for a few weeks. I work in automotive so I'm sure it'll happen sooner or later. Usually get one in july(ish). Guess I'm rambling. Critical Kush is kickin my ass tonight. Time for some shut eye. Hope y'all are doin good.

A SS fish fest would be awesome! I'm down for sure. I'm a fishaholic and love to fish for any of our great states species. Fletcher's is great bass and pike fishing but there is some special fishing regulations there in the summer if I remember right. Can't remember exactly what, I'll have to check again. I know some great stretches on the Big Creek and Main stem of the Ausable, where a dozen crawlers will keep you busy all day. Foot Dam pond is excellent perch and pike fishing, with some huge gills and sunfish mixed in. I'm game for any of it bro. Let's get something going for sure man.

What more does man need? Nothing better than a true appreciation of nature and our small place in it. I feel bad for the slugs that never step foot out of the urban jungle, how incomplete that lifestyle must be.

The Blackjack is from Nirvana seeds. Not sure if they discontinued this strain, but I couldn't find it on attitude or herbies. The Nirvana shop is the only place I see it at. http://www.nirvanashop.com/en/regular-marijuana-seeds/759-blackjack-10-seeds.html

I love tossing my canoe into local rivers and exploring while I hunt down pike and catfish. Got my wife addicted to. All it took was her first pike on the line (36"). Back on track, I just cut my blackberry 2 nights ago. Cant wait to try her. She smells amazing!

Having a wife who enjoys a good FISH ON! makes for a happy marriage. Ive got one of the best smallmouth fisheries in the state right in my backyard, and I love nothing better than to Texas rig a tube jig and catch footballs all day. Caught a 30 inch pike on a 8 inch smallie I caught last year. Got the smallie about 4 feet from the boat and the pike just slammed it, one of the coolest things I seen.

Love the description of that blackberry strain! She should be some tasty smoke.

Got a small update for you guys this morning. Tooks some low light pics when the lights went out this morning, not the best quality photos but gives a different perspective than the light saturated pics. The newly unmasked bluecheese is really getting fat and her main terminal colas are starting to rival the blackjack a bit. Blueberry is still elongating her colas, they are getting some good length to them, but she is slowing down a bit and starting to swell. Blackjack is still beastly, she is starting to protrude her calyxes and she should swell nicely in the next 3 weeks. I'll have a more detailed update this weekend when I start week 7.
Total screen area is 22"x33" to give some reference.










Had one too many cups of coffee this morning judging by the shakiness of the pics. I'll have some better quality pics up this weekend. Peace

Hey stoneslacker! Ur grow is looking great! I know u r using hempy but do u hand feed every 3 days or donu have a drip system? I use DWC but I'm thinking I'm gonna try hempy on my next run. Thanks in advanced!

I do hand feed. They are only in 5L buckets so I just water in a small catch basin for runoff. Works out to a 1/2 gallon of nutes per plant. There are lots of options if your plants are not movable too.

Eastcoastmo has a modified hempy system adapted from flowamasta's method which produces outstanding results. Uses a rez and pump with a feeding ring I believe. You could also elevate your plants on a modified ebb and flow table. just put a bucket under the return and drain that way. You could also go more primitive and just use a turkey baster to drain your catch basin, a bit time consuming though. Many possibilities with hempy, there is no problem adapting one system to fit your needs.

Thanks a lot for the info! Yeah, I follow flowa and easty and yes they both have great grows, I was just thinking of a cheap way to give hempy a try first before I go sinking a bunch of money into it. I'm having good sucess with DWC but if I can do better with hempy, I'm changing it up!! Lol! I think flowa and easty feed once every 3hrs, so how r u getting away with once evry 3 days? R ur temps high? I'm also using about the same wattage u r. 380w of LED.
 
I'm not sure if I am allowed to post in here or not, just wanted to say wow! You are a great horticulturist, and that's a fantastic looking plant! Not familiar with this "hempy" method, but I am amazed at the yield in a relatively small space!

The flowa method uses an external rez and drains through. A hempy bucket uses a rez at the bottom of the bucket. My buckets hold water weight for a good 2 days, then the third day is to let them dry out real good. Both methods accomplish the same thing in getting oxygen to the roots. More oxygen more roots and plant growth. My buckets are too small in truth for plant size, I am looking at some 2 gallons and seeing if I can work them into my grow space.

Hempy is a really affordable and effective way to grow for sure. No pumps or rez to buy. Less electricity and noise too. And no bucket changes and cleaning, one of the reasons I went this way instead of DWC. I still think flowa's method and DWC will produce better results consistently, but my system is super simple and pretty effective. Ask away and I'll help in any way I can. Peace.

Post away my friend! You are more than welcome here mate. Thanks for the great compliment, I am still learning with just a little over a year growing under my belt and just trying to get better each time. There is actually 3 plants there as I like my variety, they are all in 5L buckets scrogged in individual 11in x 22in screens. Thanks for the interest and stop back for the update this weekend.

Thanks my SS brotha! The blueberry is just a bit shorter than the other 2, so I cheat with that piece of wood with tape on it you see in the pics. Don't tell anyone!

How I love coming in the mornings SS, got my coffee in hand, nice couple bong rips nand cruising ;). Looking great buddy as always, you are pretty much the main reason I ordered some new seeds yesterday for a new KC strain (BlackJack-OG18). Got 10 Sensi Black Domina and I`m gonna cross them with some nice Jack I still have Regs of, and back to my staple mother OG18. I`ll be sending you a package when they`re through with the other strain in the works now to see how they perform in a Hempy set-up :). Damn RIU won`t let me rep you again either, bitches ... Keep it green brother, highlight of my morning,

KC :weed:
