yeah I got couple of the sour's, sour thia, sour mist (Ecsd x cali mist) and tossed ecsd(not soma's nysd,it's different breeders) cuz of the long ass flower times..

We got a coupl more in the south west connect, But yeah sour bubble is for sure some dank..
I think it's just a cross from bubblegum and ecsd..

Did you get it from TK beans?
the story behind mine is pretty cool...
a good friend of mine ran into BOG at an outdoor festival in norcal about 2 years ago. BOG handed him 4 beans and said "best pot you will ever smoke"... said it was SourDieselxSourBubbleBX3.

my friend popped 2 of them... one of the plants was tall and lanky... then there was the plant we found to be "The One". He's recently popped the remaining 2... if theres a male its coming home to poppa and I am gonna see what he's capable of...

I would love to find out from BOG if he ever did throw some SD pollen at his SB... that would be rad. Becasue I doubt he's gonna remember passing a dude at a festival 4 beans you know how many times has he probably done that lol!
 
Thats crazy..
But if you understand whatbx3 means right if you crossed it again it would become bx4 (more of the sd pheno's..)

I would pefer it be bx3bg x sd..
Only because I have grown both sd and bb, and bubblegum is one of the best on the market hands down..The taste is unforgetable..
And bubblegum growth rate is out of this world...

thats a very hard question..

set-up, lights, air, humidity, temp, kind of coco your using, hydro-drip-dwc-aero-food and drain..
veg or flower?
veg every other day in my case sometimes twice a day..

The only way that 100% sure is automatic systems or by lifting the plants and tell how much water they have by how heavy they are



how often should i water them?

thanks for the kind words nickfury510!
i have some rally cool pics of the latest bactch.. all kinds of pretty golds & reds.

hey ganjaman27 you i've done a few crops ebb n flow with mesh pots full of nothing but coir - works fine.
get some high grade coco (canna or bcuzz), some good coco nutes (i like canna), and start dosing the plants at 50% recommended strength. If they can take more, give them more. coco is easy. soo easy you can overthink it and make it really hard.
 
I hand water on a 3.5 by 6.5 tray that drains into a res...
I have all the equipment for a drip or flood.. and a couple of dwc buckets but
I decided It would be best for me to handwater this run because I am running about 12 different strains and some drink more then others...
 
I am running just coco..

But understand their are many different grades of coco as I discussed in the first post...

Some hold more water then others..

I like thick chunks but some like the thinner stuff because it holds more water, The thinner stuff is easier to grow in, But I can produce larger buds from the thicker stuff because I have more control..

But you can also layer your coco which works best hands down..




So you need to find your balance



can i use strictly coco coir?
without mixing it with ANYTTHING?(perlite,worm castings etc)
 
If you ever need a room mate holla at me....
lol

Nice grow, I am cutting down to just on or two strains...
so I can control my girls like you have done so perfectly

hey I am still not able to load pics...
however some douchbag lifted a bunch of mine from another site and is using them for his own purpose... whatever
anyhow... here's some of my sdxsb grown in canna coco fed canna nutes.

:-PI love the thread. I have been growing in coco for a few years now and have been using ph levels anywhere from 6-7. I am definately going to drop it to 5.5 now seeing the results you guys have. I am always trying to adjust my nute levels thinking that they are the root of the problems but Im pretty sure it is the ph, never knew it was supposed to be so low. Thanks again for the great info. Also, is there a place to get the S1 on the net?
 
I hope ya'll like the shot's I've taken over the last couple of days...

Somewhere between 55 and 60 Damn leap year... I started 12/12 on 1-25-09

And my man machine

Check out this snake I found in my grow room...

ive got a big expandable bale of cononut coir fiber friom Down to earth distributors. And im using Hydro nutrients from a a private hydro store owner...kinda..thing...who makes his own nutes but ive never used them so i dont really know how they will work. My lil babies are about 2 weeks old and look like their doing good but i feel like their kind of small...

All 3 look exactly like the ones in the picture ( random google picture)
after 2 weeks..

any recommendations on what i could do to increase thier growth?
im using one 23watt cfl about 2 inches about then plants in small planters, spray watering with some nute water(very very low amounts) 24hr light period...not a steady fan but sporadic...like a heater fan thing far away from it when it gets to cold.

remember guys this is my first grow and havent spent a penny on materials yet just some bag seeds i decided to germinate and plant

Very nice but I see some fully mature plants in the back ground under a hps...

I'd say your doing everything right.. Not alot you want to do to hurry this growth period up...
just let it grow...

Genetics really determine growth, for the most part:sleep:

dude get yourself at least a 250w hps and put that over the plants 24/7. you won't have heat issues and you won't have to get a heater becasue the 250 won't get that hot. the one time investmet will pay you in full + at your first harvest.... then theres the second and third and fourth grows you can do with it...

trust me....
