Blue Dream & Church Valley Kush With EBB & Grow Along with Lucas Formula

InsaneMJ said:
Ok, so after spending roughly 5 to 6 hours doing a very deep clean on all the buckets, lines, and roots, changin the resi.. I'm proud to say I'm done lol. I just added the 2 gallons of benny's to the batch, and threw the rest in the fridge with a lable. Their looking very beautiful, popping out hairs and preflowers, and no signs of deff. I hope the tea will allow them to soak up more nutes and water. Hopefully adding on to the existing root structure as well.

Normally I add Nirvana from AN to the resi at this week, I have a slight suspicion that the Nirvana is going to be a lot like the tea that I brewed. I've been reading on it, and allows your plant to uptake more nutrients. Now the tea should allow for more production of roots, which in turn will eventually do the same thing? Any ideas?
Also I'm wondering if I should still put it in with the tea?

Nice looking grow. Great job.
 
I haven't looked into any other tea's just yet, right now this is the one that I need to kill off the slime and what not. Its been about an hour since it's last watering and I'm not swearing by the tea just yet, but one of the church's roots already starting to look alittle better, maybe I'm giving it too much credit idk. Also at the base of my bucket's there isn't a collection of slime just yet, so I'll give it 3 days or so to fully take effect before I determine how well this tea works. I know I'm not the only one with this slime problem.

Well thats what I heard, but I was able to keep my ph relatively stable. I would hardly ever see it change more then .1 from 5.8 to 5.9 and back down and that would be the biggest difference I'd see all week. I've been around the stuff long enough to know when it starts doing harm. I got to just in time thanks to you HR! Your an Ebb master mind :)
I'm curious about giving it to my newly rooted clones though, help me get some food and what not for the new roots. What do you think?
-I.MJ
 
So I've came to a conclusion about the tea, I'd say its probably about 90% effective to killing off the slime, better then H202 in my opinion. I'm also thinking with adding another cup of fresh tea to the resi will also help decrease the amount of slime and within the week it all should be gone. There is obvious sign of root improvement and new root development, so the tea is working the way it should. I'm thinking about a full week with the tea and the slime should be virtually gone. :)

I'm almost 100% sure though, without me cleaning all the buckets and blah blah blah, it wouldn't of been as effective. The reason why I don't think it would be as effective is because the tea has to fight against the slime build up and the worse off it will be if you don't do a prior cleaning. I'm glad though that I can stop wasting my money on H202, well for the plants anyways. I'm still going to use it to sterilize my shyt.

Also I've stuck 2 air stones in my resi, before I just added a table spoon of h202 into my resi every day right before their first watering. I think that the lack of me using airstones in my resi could have also been a factor of why the slime occured, but I'm also thinking it's mainly because some of the water sits at the bottome of the lines and outer buckets. Later becoming warm and what not because of the lights.

Any questions, tips, comments?

Couldn't of done it without your advice man, honestly I appriciate it a lot.
There's going to be more to be grown for sure though :)

Ok, so the majority of my clones have rooted already so I'm thinking about sticking them in 4 inch rockwool cubes and just hand feeding it once a day. I'll be vegging these out for about 5 weeks maybe less maybe more, depending on how they do under the florenscents. I'll be using the Liquid Light and Saturator. It seems to definately make the difference when growing under weaker bulbs. I've had rockwool cubes in the system before but not 4 inch cubes though, I don't think there should be too much of an issue though. I think on my next run I will just do 24 blue dream under 3x1000's keep the churches for mothers which is 16 of them, it's turning out to be better and faster then I was expecting.. Also I kind of want to just run one strain at a time, I'm already noticing that the Church is developing alot more crystals, hairs, and buds alot faster then the Blue Dream, and it's harder to try to run 2 strains with 1 resi. I'm curious to hear if anyone's used that tea on their clones to help with rooting?

Ok, so I'm quite busy today with the up coming holiday. So I think I will be letting this resi go till sunday. So it will give a total of 10 days on the resi before the next change. I honestly don't think that it will affect the plants, I'll just be sure to add more water as it gets soaked up. Also I just got a LA Con. clone, and some seeds from another close buddy who also grows. He claims it's from his stressed out Pre-91 Bubba that hermied on him and popped about 10 seeds all together out of about 6 oz., but I honestly doubt it's a Pre-91, Pre-91's are so freakin hard to come by I doubt its authentic. Anyways, even if its a good bubba strain I wont mind. So I'll post some pictures up sunday too. My buddy just finished curing out his blue dream, and I've been chiefin on that. Smokes pretty smooth, I looked at the trics under a 100x microscope and its all cloudy, so he was pretty accurate about his harvest time, since he doesn't go by his trics.
I'm happy now I have a variety of strains, I just need to sort threw them and see which one is the best and ditch the worst. I don't wanna have more then 3 strains so I'll have to do a few runs to see how the product is from each strain.
I now have Granddaddy Purple, LA Con, Church Valley, Blue Dream, one Larry Og, and some sort of bubba? lol

Ahhh, Just got my hands on a Chem Dawg strain. I'll throw up pictures of that sunday also. Since it is in soil which I'm not too fond of I think I may just pull clones off her then kill it. Idk though since I heard most people keep their mother plants in soil. Any ideas on what I should do for the mother plants. I got 18 mothers that need a place to call home untill I steal them of their genes. Any ideas are encouraged.
-I.MJ
 
Lol, yeah soil tends to have bugs an shit in it which I hate.. I'm thinkin about runnin coco for the mothers since it's alot like soil an shit and I'd only have to water like 1 time ever other day sometimes every three days. Plus if I were to go out and buy soil for each one of my mothers I'd be in the hole about 200$ I got about 19 different plants I'm tryin to mother out. 16 are Church Valley, I'm going to give 2 away to the guy who gave me the strain, he had a spider mite infestation and decided it would be best to just toss the crop and start fresh. So I'll have 14 Church mothers, 1 Larry Og, 2 Granddaddy Purple, 2 Bubba Kush(if the seeds pop), 1 Chem Dawg, 1 La Con. As for the blue dream, I'm not gonna mother her out because when I go to flower them I'll just cut clones when I lollipop em'.

Im doing a coco test with x8 clones to see how it goes then im giving them to. Y bro! But so far coco seems cool
Im looking a the titan system again there 4gal backets but they have these inner sleeves that allow you to use
Perlite/ coco and other types of medium you woukdnt be able to use.
 
Yeah, well my buddy does coco and he only waters his plants roughly every 2 to 3 days just because it retains so much water. Thats also part of the reason why I want to look into it, less water consumption means less nutes to make, and less money being spend. But Idk how good the comparision of yields will be. Off 6 plants in coco with the blue dream strain my buddy pulled 20 oz. So I waiting to see how much I yield with 4 and kinda go from there. Always looking at new ways to be most cost efficient.

The Larry OG cut is still struggling to root, Idk how well this strain will be due to the amount of stress it's been through so far. The Church is developing very nice right now, I think the swelling processing is about to hit and I'll see everything forming together. The Blue Dream is taking it sweet ass time lol, it's a really good strain and I love it, but damn it's laggin compared to the Church I'm thinkin cause its got to do with genetics since the homie told me he wouldn't see flowers until week4. As for the GDP cuts, they've all rooted, along with the church and Blue Dream. Out of all my cuts 2 did not make it, which were the Larry og's from the already budded plant. The Bubba Kush has just popped but only 1 of the seeds, the other one is still a tickin time bomb. I just did a resi change today so they will be recieving fresh nutes tonight, also my resi will not have any airstones for the first 2 days, or any tea. Reason is because I'm making more tea right now and I need the airstones to make it. I think 2 days should be ok.
Any tips, comments?

That Chem looks alot like the same cut I have. Thanks for stopping by my thread. Came through to show some love back. I am interested in the ebb and grow or some kind of DWC still undecided. Love the strains too! I hope that Larry OG cut roots for ya. Thats some fire smoke! Happy growing buddy.
 
Yeah it came from a medical shop up in the middle of Cali, so I hope it's a legit strain since it is a clone only dispensary. I made sure to spray that bitch down for spider mites or whatever just in case. Don't want that ruining my entire next crop lol. Glad to see you stopped by though. Only a few more weeks till the end :)
