Nice Jerry the jamaican me crazy sounds good lol

Right on Jerry, nice work man!

Im sure youve mentioned this but do you use the Bio Root in addition to your BMO SPT or, IYO, do they do the same thing? I like GOs veg and flower nutes better than BMOs so far and Im slowly adding the diamond black and bio-weed so I can see the effects. Any input would be appreciated, Thanks!

While the ingredients are similar, I feel they do slightly different things. SPT acts as a wonderful source of microorganisms, while the BioRoot is designed to specifically aid root development.

I use them together, every feeding, usually about half strength, until 3/4 through flower.

Don't bother slowly adding the Diamond Black and BioWeed...I'll tell you now they are awesome and worth it. As is the BioBud, which is a bit more expensive than the other stuff but you only use 1 tsp per gallon so it lasts forever. I use the Diamond Black and BioWeed with every feeding, and the BioBud with every feeding once they begin 12/12. The effects are big crystalline nasty stinky organic buds :mrgreen:

Thanks and welcome TheOrganic.

My Pineapple was pretty good...the most smelly vegging plant I've had yet. Very nice out of a vape, OK out of the pipe.

Glad to have you along for the ride!

hey jerry things are really starting to come along here liking the GO. do you feed 'heavy' with the biobud at 1 tsp per gallon from the start of 12/12? and you feed every other watering correct? do you only use the camg+ with the nutes or do you add it every watering? i dnt have a thread of my current grow but im thinking bout starting a flower journal as i am on the 26th day flower and there are some nice buds especially the powerkush from dinafem i am loving the way this plant is growing i have two both LST one has 14 colas at the canopy! ill let you know if when i get a thread going. dant wait to see the sour d.

Yup, I go heavy on the BioBud, but I don't usually start giving it until my second feeding during 12/12.

I also typically alternate feeding and watering, though sometimes I'll supplement the water-only feeding with Big Bloom or Neptune's Harvest or some other light nutrient/additive (just picked up some hygrozyme so I'll probably use that during my in-between feedings).

I give CalMag every other watering with the rest of the nutrients only. Make sure you use the new dosage they started listing (1 tsp light and 2 tsp heavy) as it seems to be a little weak at 1/2 tsp light and 1 tsp heavy.

I was very happy with my Dinafem Powerkush...very solid yielding and tasty plant...with 14 colas on one plant you should see a nice harvest.

Finally harvested Sour #4. She's very purple and stinky. Got some other pics too. Let's have a look, shall we?

Sour #4. 80ish days 12/12.

Pineapple Chunk, about 60 days 12/12. Not quite the yield I got from the last couple generations, but whatever.

.

Tahoe OG #3. About a month into 12/12.

Sour OG #3. Same as Tahoe #3. Both in large white containers (~3.5 gallons).

Jack the Ripper. 6 weeks or so into flower.

Sour #4. About a month into flower.

NYC Diesel. A couple weeks into flower. Looking awesome.

Space Queen #1. Female.

Space Queen #2. Female.

Space Queen #3. Female.

Querkle #2. Female.

Querkle #3. Female.

Sharksbreath. Just started flowering today.

Tahoe #2. Stretched just like the last one.

Querkle #1. Only male of the 6 TGA seeds I started.

Finally, LSD revegged. Re-vegging is difficult, especially with a nutrient-sensitive plant like the LSD.

Wassup Jerry. As I said before, I use the GO line as well, have you noticed a big difference between using the Bio Bud at normal strength vs heavy? I used it at normal strength last time around, and I'm on week three of a new cycle now. Maybe I'll up it a bit...

What are your thoughts on the JTR? That's another one I've been thinking about springing for.

Thanks, I'll hang up and listen...

Not sure really. I'll probably make some Querkle seeds I suppose, if I even keep it around. It doesn't have the tightest node spacing but it sure does have some wide leaves. I was hoping to get a Space Queen male, but I suppose I could use the Querkle male pollen on one of Space Queens. We'll see.

I'm a little tight on space lately, so I may not clone any of the SQ or Querkle and just let them go. The next generation of plants coming in are Sour Diesel, and I'd rather have sufficient space for them to do their thing.

I've really only used the BioBud at heavy strength...haven't seen a need to use less.

I really like the JTR...very heavy lemon/lime flavor and smell, more of a head buzz than a couch-lock stone. I don't think you can go wrong with any TGA strain though.

you should have a nice stash of the SQ and querkle after these run through, but i guess all good things must come to an end. the sour diesels should be a good show as well as that nyc diesel. keep it green bongsmilie

Funny you should describe it as such. I'm in the process of finishing up school this spring and will need to find a job, which probably means moving, which means shutting down the garden. This last round of Cali Connect Sour Diesel and Jamaican Me Crazy will be my last until I've relocated...I can still veg them for a couple weeks and finish flower by the end of May/early June. Should have a nice stash to carry me through wherever the future leads...

Sour #4 is amazing! I just want to squeeze those tops! lol

wyteberrywidow · Feb 14, 2011

All those plants are loking good..I love how the sour og and tahoes are looking

drmarcusg · Feb 14, 2011

Great name great thread great plants

Jerry Garcia · Feb 16, 2011

So I just filled a bag of sour og #3, which was fantastic, and pulled out 13 fat healthy seeds from one bud! These were the ones I made using the triploid sour og male.

Awesome.

Jerry Garcia · Feb 18, 2011

Here are some pics.

Querkle #2.

Querkle #3.

Sharksbreath!

Space Queen #1.

Pineapple Chunk. Harvest is coming any day now...

Sour #4. I love smoking this one.

Tahoe #3. Lavender/soap pheno.

Showing some weird rust spots...not too terribly concerned though...

Sour #3. Also a good one. Glad I have seeds!

Group shot...Sour #4, Tahoe #3, Sour #3 Left to right...

Jack the Ripper. Very near harvest. Completely stopped pushing out new growth about 2 or 3 weeks ago. I thought these were going to grow into nice healthy colas, but instead they all stayed the same size...small. Buds are dripping with resin and smell delicious, they are just tiny compared to the last run.
