Hey these look pretty tasty too! Great recovery!
Just cause my plan is to keep the ISIS for veg so I can keep the Magnums is continuous flower use. As soon as I chop down one round under the Mag's then my next round is all vegged under the ISIS and ready to rock.
Still sticking with my original estimate. More than a pound and maybe 18 oz......
Do you know how long you vegged by chance? Thanks for the tip on drowning, too.
4 ft from the soil. These ones are a foot taller than the ones I just chopped. Extra weight def isnt the strain as PK isn't a huge yielder. Just getting it dialed in and learning to use cal/mag with coco and not over-nuting. When I water now (every second feed) I overwater to provide a mini-flush and that seems to really agree with the plants. I'm getting veg time dialed into three weeks.Lovely ladies, even if they look better in green than yellow. Are those rescues 3' including the pot, or 3' from the soil?
On this grow, I know you've learned a lot with these lights, but is the extra weight estimate due more to the strain, or did the grow just go that much better? Low estimate of 454g would be like 38% more. Can't wait for the weight
Lol thats why i hate meters. you have to recalibrate. I like the liquid testers. Because pens arent as reliable. There are some really good self calibrating pens that are way to expensive. I had the eco plus ph pen and that lasted about a year. You had to recal it once a week to get accurate results. Untill it didnt recal anyone and read the ph 7 at 8.4. I use both for more accurate resultsHowdy everyone. Still not dry but closed them off in a closet with the dehumidifier to try to expedite it. This is the downside to drowing the plants before harvest. They are damn soaked when you cut em down.
@Sleazy took me about an hour to cut down nine plants with a "rough cut". I am in for about another hour of trimming along the way while they are drying. I could definatley do a more "show quality" trim but this is for me and I'm not too fussy
Next round is purple kush......actually next two rounds are. I have a couple "situations" going on.
First off I have nine large PK currently going in my new room under three Magnums. They are from the same mum my girls came from. A buddy of mine took em and vegged them under a 400MH and then triggered under a 1000HPS. It went all to hell on him and he basically gave up as they were almost completely yellow about three weeks into flower. He also got called to go back up north to the oilfield so I took themn and put them in my new room under three Magums. I should have posted some pics as their progress has been remarkable but I didn't want to detract from my current grow, plus this one is kind of a bastard grow as it started under HPS....lol. Anyway I figured out what was going on. His PH pen was way out of wack and 5.9 on the meter was actually in the mid to low 4's so they were locked right out. Here they are after three weeks under the Magnums and they have about two weeks to go.
I threw a third Mag in the 4x4 area in my new grow room. Main reason being these current plants are much taller and were under a 1000HPS so I figured I'd go for more light intensity. I have a theory that if you veg or start flowering under very intense light the plants actually grow smaller leaves as they don't need the surface area to grab as much light. I know in the past that when I've vegged under floros I get HUGE fan leaves but as soon as you drop them under powerful lights the plants seem to go into shock. On that theory these ladies were under a 1000HPS so trying to match intensity.
Yup. The pens and meters sure are handy for getting a digital readout instead of interpreting a color chart but they certainly have their issues. I'm partially color blind so the liquids aren't much good for me but I calibrate my meter once a week for sure.
Reds are purples eh lol
Ok cool, and how high do you run your ISIS to canopy during veg?
I would do the same thing with the Magnums. Full spectrum for three days. Blue spectrum for three days. Repeat
