Hey all kb here long time riu member (under a diff sign in years back) Ive been silent a long time and figured what the hell ill share my future happenings with everyone.
Backstory*
For those of you that dont know me as i believe most of my old riu friends are gone or dont post anymore, tho i have not looked them up yet and im posting under a new account, names KB a michigan caregiver/patient. I work with mainly og genetics and specialize in purple varieties and have been on a mission to bring a purple strain that mi can be proud to say this came from mi and rival cali strains. Right now I have a few hybrids being stabilized in hopes of making it to this years cannabis cup (fingers crossed) my pride and joy White Grapes a purple fire og dominate beast is what I hope will place in the cup. Ive grown every style imaginable starting with T5 stealth closet grows and guerilla warfare, 20 gallon DWC buckets, flood and drain tables, chem, organics, cash crops to connoisseur quality herb.
All of that leading me to where I am today. So with that said lets get up to speed on where we are today. Right now im currently running 3 rooms. 1 veg room with flouro lighting I call the ghetto rig its a large bathroom that was never finished and ive never put money into it flouro lighting is cheap and does a decent job for vegging clones and keeping my mothers from exploding over time.
Room #2
25x25 with 8 600w lights 4 hps 4 mh i like the mixed spectrum i feel it does the plant much better growth wise and you can see the actual color of the plants leaves and noticing a problem earlier on is much easier. Also has ventilation wand is semi sealed in prep for co2 burners.this room is primarily used for my patients and stable strains that are predictable
Room#3
25x20 5 1000w hps 4 regular air cooled hoods and 1 gavita pro in the center. This was my hydro room but has been temporarily brought back to soil for a few reasons i wont get into at this time. The room is completly sealed has 8 inch ventilation for the lights, r/o water with a 55gal res, co2, and climate control. The temps in here are a constant 80-85F (boost the temps when running co2) 40%RH.
All the rooms are heated and cooled using fans and the houses geothermal unit. And himidity is controlled with one ideal-air commercial dehumidifier which also is used for the entire house as well.
NUTES
Full line of green planet nutes if your not using them or havent heard check them out. I made the switch from.advanced nutrients a few years back they are 1/4 the cost of AN and thats buying 7 bottles I belive in gallon size. I switched bc their product is clean easier to use and produces the exact same results. I also use rootsXl from house and garden (expensive but amazing product) and a few other i cant think of at the moment. Im currently testing green wizard's line right now side by side with green planet. They are a small local company based in mason, mi and the owner has ridiculous quality control standards from what Ive heard. He makes small batches and only uses the highest quality ingrediants to ensure a quality product. It is also only a gorw a&b a bloom a&b and 3 additives for bloom so less bottles to mix. So far performance in veg and early flower has beat green planet and adding their "crystalize" product to the green planet line up last run showed a huge improvement in resin production that was noticable which you dont find often when switching products. Cost is a little pricier but ill pay more for a cleaner product. There is very little color added to it only enough to see the difference between A and B and when mixed its almost clear which i like.
Strains
White grapes <my hybrid>
Pheno 1, 2, and 3.
Pheno 1 actual "white grapes" this is the pheno the strain is based on its a pure purple fire og. It grows and performs exactly like an og would but starts to turn purple @ about week 6 and by 9-10 weeks the entire plant is dark purple almost black. It retains the pinesol lemon scent with a fruity side to it. And has a fruity taste as well. The high is instantly behind the eyes on the first hit and slowly build to a complete body buzz and is awsome for anxiety and pain. Made into a topical cream this beats out anything in the clubs and does wonders for back and muscles. Shes covered in trichomes hence the white in white grapes and has some great bag appeal.
Pheno 2
This is the green pheno she is almost a pure fire with some of the purple influence in structure and looks. Her leaves will turn later on when she finishes and will even have some color on the buds as well if you let her go a full 10 weeks. A beast to say the least she is the heaviest yeilding out of the 3 with rock solid nugs covered in trichomes. A carbon filter is a must and vacuum sealing is essential for transportation a gram of this will smell like a pound in your vehicle from the trunk. Its probably the dankest smelling herb ive come in contact with over the years. A true definition of the term loud haha.the high is about the same but maybe a little more psychoactive
Pheno 3
connoisseur quality the best of both worlds light purple nugs more of a pastel color. Resin production is above all the rest. The yeild is lower tho she looks like shell beat out the other 2 by week 3 she just doesnt continue to build up. It seems she outs out everything she has at once and then later on settles in to producing resin (nothing wrong there). Smell is sweet and fruity with an earthy undertone and the taste is about the same. Smaller nugs that are rock hard but like to fox tail later down the road. She finishes faster than the others by about a week which helps so the trimming isnt all at once.
Ill be posting pictures of everything later on. Rooms strains phenos and have everything detailed out from how much and when i give what to my plants and spell it all out so the novie grower can follow this and produce almost the same results. This is a work of art that takes 4 months from start to finish not a race but a marathon. So grab a chair and have a seat this will be a long informational ride and i hope to teach and learn from all of you that chose to hang out and i also have a great organic run being put together that you wont want to miss.
