Just another DIY COB build

Did u pick that strain because of high potency or faster flowering times:confused:

i picked it because the parents. i really wanted some whitefire for the longest time and never came across it. i was hoping this would be similar but it isnt really all that close from what i recall. still very nice on a couple phenos and i kept one out of 5 or 6 females. i just popped all my ninja fruit and trap star last night. i think i am gonna do things in reverse order this time. i normally get the plant decent size, take a few cuts off each to make a mom, and then decide what to keep as the original one flowers out. i think this round i will take a few cuts to flower small ASAP and then by the time i am done with those i have a huge mom ready to donate a hundred cuts if i like it. that way i am not wasting precious floor space on untested genetix. i can put all the testers in a small tent in case they hermie!
 
sexiest trannies you will ever see ;)
exotic genetix future. so dank. if their other beans come out this potent but without the nanners i will be redeemed! smell is off the charts. i want to have sex with it. this strain didnt get very dense but not because of the lighting. the lighting did its job quite well and im happy so far.

ok so here's the rundown. i kept just shy of 3/4lb almost all from the SOGlings. the rest goes to the closed loop/rosin press. there was only one keeper pheno. the rest were either hermies or fluffy as hell but frosty as hell as well. i dont have time or space for plants that dont perform. one of my blackfires was great. super dense, frosty as hell and smells spicy, hashy with a hint of sweetness. there would have been a keeper future plant but they were all poppin bananas. the table flowering above definitely has some keepers on it. yield and quality is the goal and i think theres a few that meet the standards.

i wouldnt have been anywhere near my GPW mark i was shooting for. too many variables with these seeds. i am redesigning how i flower out seeds from here on out. i will only flower cuts of new seeds with no veg time and keep their moms off to the side. once they flower out i will decide whether or not to keep them. that way i am wasting veg space and not highly valuable flowering space on untested beans. no more wasted space on the floor.

the lights did their job fine. i think the lack of yield was due to genetics. some of my plants were dense as hell and i look forward to running them again.
 
can any of the LED peoples help me out with this? looks like calmag issue to me. getting progressively worse over the last week. now the leaves are starting to taco upwards on the upper canopy. not sure whats going on.

they are in rockwool on drippers with plenty of runoff. ec is at 1.2 base and then i add calmag. i just started hitting them harder with the cal mag as of yesterday. hopefully that will keep it at bay until i chop lol.

Looks like iron or zinc, is PH @ 5.7?

ph is at 5.8. jacks is always super stable but i always check it anyways. i have NEVER had any deficiencies until the lighting change. the lights could also be a little bit close but there is no bleaching, only cupping upwards on the upper leaves.

Have u flushed plants with 1/2 strength nutes?
that should fix them

on the last grow when people were telling me it was over fed i flushed and it made things way worse. they did get flushed at half strength a week ago and now they are at normal strength plus extra calmag. hoping this will slow it down if not solve it. i think the lights may be a little too close as well. only the upper leaves are cupping. no bleaching at all. im not sure on the height i should run on these COBS and since everyone drives at different wattage everyone is hanging at different heights. these are only at ~38 watts each. some of the colas are only a few inches away but on average they are about 12" away i think.
 
just some random shots. i think the progression of the deficiency has slowed down. i will up the food one last time for the next two weeks and then after that i flush for a week til chop. these should have about three weeks left.
