2nd coco grow, Looking for feed back

So this is my second grow, my first grow is in my signature, this time around I decided I would do INDICA dominant strains since my grow with jack herer didn't yield the best results. In fact one plant resulted in product that was nearly unusable.

So this time around after dealing with damping off issues, I've finally fixed the germination issues I was having. After a RIU member recommended trying a seedling mix, I've had 100% success, knock on wood.

Anyways i just put the following strains into flower a week ago.
2 Delicious Black Russian feminized
2 Master Kush
1 Mazar x White Rhino (this strain has been very good to me thus far, very easy to clone, fast growing, and no deficiencies)
1-Lemon KUSH

seeds that im waiting to germinate/ just planted:
aurora INDICA
blue mystic
grand daddy PURP
pineapple Chunk
kc 45 auto
a bunch of skunk x ???? Seeds
skywalker OG
Swiss cheese
white widow x big bud

Let me give some specs on this grow
coco coir+perlite+vermiculite
fox farms trio
3'x4'x7' DIY tent
5 gallon buckets with plenty of holes
400w mh/hps light with CFL supplement


Almost all the current plants were germinated back in December.
so anyways I was wondering about the strains I'm currently flowering. That Mazar x white rhino in particular I'm wondering about. Infact I haven't smoked any of the strains I'm growing so if you've tried any of the strains let me know. I'll get some pictures up soon for everyone.

wheres the pix man

Double post.

Here's some photos of my Mazar x white rhino. She's been pretty good so far extremely easy to clone, smells great, no complaints , can't wait to actually smoke it.

Here's some master KUSH, I have two that I started from seed. One looks like it's kill, the other not so much.

You doing much different your second go around then?

I find coco very forgiving. Second run on it I changed a lot of stuff from first go around, letting them get thirstier was one!

Nice pics man. Im guessing from the beans you are running your UK based?> Fucking Poirot over here innit!

Uh mainly I'm learning more about what to expect from plants. Making mistakes but learning. I also did a 7 bucket dwc run, learned a lot from that. One issue I'm having is this, I wanna a few strains going but it's hard to know what to expect since it's different stains. I'm starting to do more selective cloning, so I can avoid growing plants that aren't as strong. Doing better labeling.

I'm praying that this Mazar x white rhino comes out good cause she's been so easy going I would like to make this strain a staple.

Start researching the genetics more mate. Its as much about the beans as the grower.
Although good beans are shit with a terrible grower lol.

I always run a couple of new strains next to my staples.
DNA LA Conf is my always grow, and also SinCity Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies is my new no1 smoke and grow!
Mental mind melting stuff!

Keep searching for that keeper pheno of whatever you run. But I will say I found a keeper in 1 pack of SinCity beans. Probably luck. Take a look in my sig.

DWC is a very big learning curve, you learn what the plants really want and how to correct that shit fast! Coco gives you a bit more time I find.

Thanks, but their are variations in the seeds right? Like let's say I took two seeds from the same plant, same batch everything, one still might come out better than the rest right? that's what I'm experiencing at least. If that Mazar plant has a killer end product, and judging from what I'm seeing it should be, I think this will be my staple. Especially since I'm getting 100% rooting on my clones of her. I'm looking into buying a digital microscope that way I can make sure I'm harvesting at an optimal time, since those handheld ones are a pain to use.

So I finished my Mazar x white rhino, been smoking on it since it was harvested but now its fully dry, so the potency has improved greatly. I got roughly 1/4 lbs (like 3.8 oz) which doesn't include any of the buds smaller than a gram, those were used to make hash. Is that a good yield for my second time? I think I got like 2 ounces of each plant on my first run. By the way I'm talking dry weight.

Also finished is my Black Russian. If there's one training method that I find works extremely well is supercroping. I did it to half of this plant, so I compare the results. Well it definitely worked extremely well. I'll get some photos up ASAP.

hey man i know im late to the party but as a fellow coco grower i salute u

i believe you should research scrogs
