Bubbleponics NooB!

Jizz!!!!!

You old timer, you still on your first grow??? Just kidding...I am so glad to see you are enjoying growing your own. I had a blast and I am back for more. I am still catching up on your thread, but I will get there, and stop by and see me over on my Alaskan Ice page....Glad to be back and see you growin em like a weed!!!

Texas u old sheep humper you! Good to see you back on my thread. Yeah still on first grow. I think in order to have a first grow though you have to stop changing methods and situations every few days lol.

OK here's the scoop though. 2 nice diesel females about to be loving me from the unsulphured organic molasses I just picked up for them. Gonna try that in water tomorrow, im laying off the nutes this week. I also removed a male auto dwarf from the clan and identified a female I think so thats more good news. At this point im not keeping any males, I just want to see how the product is and decide if I want to use the last 10 seeds to propogate.

Enjoy the pics. and is now too soon to start with some molasses? I was going to do 1 tsp. per gallon for both types of plants since the autos are flowering. Thanks !

Man, the light is too high up and away, and that is causing the stretching!

is stretching a bad thing?

use MH at 6-8 inch from plant. too much red light sepectrum makes stem growth. blue ight spectrum is waht you need and you get it real well frum a 600 MH Bulb

POSTING ALERT:

Id much rather people who have questions cruise the noob threads before flaming my 19 page, 5 month old journal with day 1 questions. Not trying to be a dick but I prefer not to have a biblical story here. Also stop by the ettiquette section chances are if you have a question, someone else asked first and it is already out there...dont post your questions on someone elses thread..or repeat already answered questions from months ago...spank u for calling!

And on that note I must inform all my adoring fans that I am no longer growing. Sad Sad Sad but my kids have found a new home with another dedicated stoner! I had the good fortune for being selected for a great job that has a not so great drug policy lol. Thanks for the advice, help and positive feedback on my thread, hope to be back again soon...hope it's not a recurring drug test thing! Thanks again all!

I am going to do another week of Veg to stengthen the stems. I came up with a genius idea to shorten the res. to now have so much damn unused water in the thing that they dont drink anyway. I went with a Target Kitty Litter Pan with the tote lid fit right over top! I also lowered the lights and am on the way out for an oscillating stand fan. I scrubbed and cleaned the original tote and changed the nutes for a higher dosage and PH bal the water b4 setting the cover in. Roots starting to show. See my new pics...damn they are pathetic! The color is good though so I think they will fight back. Let me know what you think.

did you grown them in an incubator or did you just take the seeds straight into the bubbleponic system?

I think those I grew right in the system with the light too high. It was a while ago, those plants are ancient history.

Hey all. hope someone is keeping an eye out. Im back in the game for a few weeks until my auto's r done. I have some seedlings that r looking ok for the most part but r either over nuted or under nuted and IDK which. I have flushed them with mostly plain water last night until the res filled and the hempy cup holes ran out. They r not over watered then. I gave some of the yellowing ones 1/3 strength grow nutes for N and such. If anyone thinks I should be doing something diff. then let me know. Eventually these will be bogged into 1.5 gal hempy buckets already set up.
These are 3 weeks old and have been feeding with a medicine dropper a few times per day with like 1/5 strength nutes, barely anything. auto flowering dwarfs also so they r flowering right now. under 2x65 watt CFL's for now until I get them under the 250watt HPS for flowering their last month.

INFO APPRECIATED!

Ok I panicked again. I DID burn them early in life slightly but they bounced right back after a flush and a day of good dry substrate and lighting. 3 Females so far and 2 males. The rest will show by tomorrow. Also have a Gigabud Fem. Seed in the covered cup, trying a 4 gal Hempy bucket with Perlite/water crystals and see how far I can go between waterings for vacations! I have 5 more of them anyways.


YES I KNOW THEY STRETCHED GET OFF MY TITS! LOL

The Diesel Harvest was DISSAPPOINTING!! about 2 oz dry off both combined. Not enough light, stretching, nute burns, nute def. Im amazed they survived to harvest. GREAT SMOKE THO! Grapefruit and dank diesel mixed and a nice even high thats mostly body but clear headed.

My 2 auto females yielded about the same as my Diesels in 8 weeks! Nice heavy smoke, heavy crystals, nice budding, taste can be harsh at times if it gets too hot in the vape but it hits hard and is a nice up high with energy.

Thanks for everyone watching my threads. Appreciate the support and attention. Will be around here and there.

Ok so I transplanted the 3 females into 1.5 gal hempy buckets and they r now resuming growth. Vertical growth i have noticed now the solid 6th node is finished, tight spacing between too after initial stretch to cotyledon.

Got rid of the males, no seeds here, not with my feminized Gigabud in the room no thank u sir.
This is easier to manage and now just have to worry about diff light schedules in another 13 days when seedling goes to 18/6.

Just a heads up, got the nutes right, they are not burning now, looks good to me, will give them all the time they need, they sure have the space now.

Hi all, great news all is well. Gigabud fem. is extremely hardy and will not stop making progress so I haven't as much as looked at her sidewaysin days. This is day 9 of growth for her and day 31 of growth for those auto dwarfs. they are about 5, 6, 7, inches from smalles to largest and looking green and robust on the interiors. I can see multiple bud sites forming with gusto and the nodes r very tight after initial stretch so no worries. Going to finish them off under the HPS and put the Giga right into flower on Sat when its 14 day mark hits and I put it into the 4 gal. cont. Thats all for now!

Quick info bite:
I learned today that the Miracle Grow brand Perlite contains trace amounts of Nutes. I was wondering how my new Gigabud seedling had burned leaf tips w no nutes at all added since germination. Those fuckwads at Miracle Grow apparently know whats best for all of us. I flushed the balls out of the giga and shook the damn cup to extract all the water I could. Will top off tomorrow afternoon w fresh water only and c how the leaves look. Thought this would help others...i never thought to check the bag. Oh and shit Giga female is only 10 days old, out of tent and looking healthy except for those leaf tips. Any othe rinfo would help if this isnt what I think. The new growth is fine and has no apparent burns or def. I think the flush will stop that in it's tracks.

All is well, really no complaints, the gigs seedling is eating ferociously and has gotten deeper green. I added some grow nutes to the water contentrate. The auto Dwarf mixes are thriving and budding well. I hope the mid stem growth will make the plant disappear in a few weeks. Proj. finishing weekend is rapidly approaching. Added flowering nutes to their conc. too, no more nute burn for me. May also do molasses for the last 2 weeks with full strength nutes and a flush every 2-3 days. Hope some of my old friends r enjoying the thread still...it's totally shifted tho which is funny to me reading back again and again and laughing my ass off. Enjoy the pics.

Ok so the hempy auto flowering dwarfs are looking stellar. I mean, loook at the pics. feeding twice a day or so but not until it pours out. just topping off some here and there and they love it. No real def. or burns to speak of and the bud is glistening for me. The gigabud is responding well to the LST I started about 10 days ago. she is at day 27 now and is bushing out nicely. The autos will be harvested on the 6th which is a few days past 8 weeks. Cant wait any longer, leaving for the shore right the next AM. will dry for the week n the box and be ready for my arrival home! I have nothing but good reports for Joint Doctor's Auto Flowering Dwarf Mix or G-13 Gigabud. Both are easy to read, easy to raise and the auto's are a great smoke and heavy producer. Will give weights at harvest this time wet and keep each plants bud sep. see who makes daddy feel sleepy and who makes daddy feel like building shit. Comments and questions welcome. The giga is also going in a 4 gal hempy bucket the day I leave and see if she can go a week without watering in a huge bucket with water crystals miced into the perlite. I think it will work. Later all

well everything is fine but I have just osld my light setup on craigs. I have ordered a brand new setup consisting of a 400 watt HPS Bulb, Cool tube and Lumatek digital 400 watt ballast.

I also ordered a squirrel cage type exhaust fan I want to install on a piece of plyywood screwed into a window frame to vent hot air...however!

The ducting and clamps I bought are 4" just like the intake flange on the fan but the cool tube has a 6" opening to accept that hose. is there a way I can get an adapter to make the 6 inch come down to a 4". the air is only 95 cfm so it wont stress the motor much to restrict air flow, may even help suck out more heat. Any help would be great to save me a headach or a returned item, I need this shit now cuz my setup- goes in a few days! Thanks

Thanks for all the help! I found a "reducer" at HD and things r fine now. New light system will b in this week and I sell the old on next week. Also not going to screw a plate into anything, just gonna paint the plywood black and slip it into the window and shut it slightly w the fan mounted to it then plastic trim it all in.

Here's some new pics, im not posting shit anymore on here since nobody knows how to increase rep or make a cool comment. Found a way better forum with less pissing and moaning and arguing also

Nice job Jizz! I am tempted to grow some of those Auto's, and I agree, Hempy does RULE!

Thank moosey you always were the man! Here's some new pics of the light setup and the auto's JUST before chopping. Super frosty and dense with nice sized nuggs. Pulled a small pieceof popcorn off the bottom and it's still a sizeable piece!

The Giga is a goddamn bush worthy of the whitehouse lawn, nuff said.

Will get wet/dry weights and pics of harvest asap.
