Pickle's White Widow / Citrus Bagseed / Barneys Farm LSD (Comments & Advice Welcome )

Well I'm not really sure if its yellowing from pests, or nutes, did notice a infestation of spider mites that kinda started rearing its ugly head near the tops of the larger plants, they got about two weeks left. No webbing just a few of those bastards crawling on the underside of a few lower branches. I'm getting some new green growth, buds are pretty frosty, no camera at the moment, hope to have one soon.

I have to find the happy medium between monster topped plants, and 9" Clones, they seem to get to be about two feet tall once the stretch is done. Just topping and FIM'n a little pretty much put all my 9" second string plants with three nice tops, that fill alot further down than the big bushes, they also take up to much space. I'm thinking that 12" 4-6 tops should work out nicely in a 16 quart pot. I added two more to flowering being a few will be comming out in the next 3 weeks, I wanted to see how much better that would work out.

The Indica cutting that my friend told me was a kush, not sure really what it is, but I like what it does, not sure on the smoke, but it makes big ole soda can on top, and looking very good. I'm glad I took a cutting off it before hand, didn't expect the lil 7-8" shabby looking plant to do anything, nice surprise.

This is just from observation, and I don't reccomend this. Worse case I kill two clones.

WW#20 & WW#21 TEST Schedual #1

4-6 TOPPED in CLONER To 16 Quart Pot FFOF Soil.

Soil Drench & Spray Azamax.

First water. 1/8 Tsp Fox Farm Open sesame

I'll update this as I feed, them I am trying to read them the best I can with these two. With the next set being put 2 weeks behind those it should give me a good indication of what I should adjust, I'll be using all Fox Farm Liquids and powders as I see fit.

Things seem to be going ok, not happy with the yellow condition and spider mites, its not horrible, but still never happy with bugs. I'm not sure what I want to do with my perpetual as of now, might just finish off all but the two last test subjects of my schedual below, and clean spray everything down. I'm just hoping it doesn't go critical mass before the last couple sets finish up. I hope I can get that fat boy indica to get larger in the veg room, the one that is flowering looks amazing, and seems to be pretty resistant to the problems going on with the other ones.

The early 6 week accident plant, the later in flowering citrus plant from my first grow kinda took a beating so we chopped it after being kicked over, it made a little room, and got roughly 25 grams dry off it. I wasn't that upset about it, got some smoke to toke on for the next two weeks of finishing up.

WW#20 & WW#21 TEST Schedual #1

4-6 TOPPED in CLONER To 16 Quart Pot FFOF Soil.

Soil Drench & Spray Azamax.

First water - 1/8 Tsp Fox Farm Open sesame to Gallon Of Water

Second Water - Plain Water

I'll update this as I feed, them I am trying to read them the best I can with these two. With the next set being put 2 weeks behind those it should give me a good indication of what I should adjust, I'll be using all Fox Farm Liquids and powders as I see fit.

I'm going to clone the L.S.D. very soon there are a couple of side branches that will be ready. The indica looks alot more dominant, in the barneys farm than the widow, for sure. I plan to try three clones of L.S.D. at around 10" in 16qt pots, to get an idea of the stretch, and the best way to manage the canopy.

The one that was "kush" I got from a friend some time back, I'm not really sure if it is kush but indica dominant for sure, the leaves are so broad, and wide. The two inch clone I took 8 days into flowering roughly is slow going in its 16qt pot. This one never had much vigor in veg, but explodes when put into flower. I will have to create a support system for this one, it gets veryy heavy cola's on top.

That brings us to the lemony bagseed, I love the taste of this one. The one that got kicked over, and cut down, I'm currently smoking. It did hermie on a bottom bud again, and made 4-5 premature seeds. This plant recieved alot of stress, unfortunatly. I'm going to keep the mother in the back going though, unless the last one I have flowering goes crazy hermie. I might try to cross some hermie pollen from this with a widow in the future, just a thought at the moment.

This is I want to say is done, but I'm letting it go for a full 8 weeks. Its a big ole heavy hog. It was suppose to be "kush" of some sort, but it's very indica whatever it is. Runts always seem to do the best in the garden so far go figure.



More info on the others in my next post. My hand is not a really good comparison, but I can easily palm a basketball if it helps anyone. lol.

I'm just throwing up all the pic's I snap'd. I'll do a more organized post in a couple of days. The cat litter bucket widows are HUGE. Still not happy about the yellow., and to anyone that notices that shitty "haze" plant in the back, two points for paying attention. I am just letting it go, it looks horrible but its comming back, and making a few nuggets.

This is something I'm going to try with WW#20 & WW #21. I've come up with this after seeing how the ones prior responded to nutes through flowering. I tried up-potting into larger pots with Fox Farm Ocean Forest, and still noticed a lack of N on the large plants the second week into flowering, those I barely fed anything, the one's that are three days behind are much more green, almost to the point of being to dark. With most of these I didn't have to adjust ph from the tap that was a ph of 7.0. Most of these mixes ended up about 6.5-6.8 ph.

Very nice grow! Just found your journal today,lol. I'm doing a Barneys lsd run in soil.I have found during the 3rd week of flower 1 Tbs of Molasses & 1 Tbs of Humboldt County's Own Snowstorm Ultra every other watering drives these ladies crazy! Again,VERY nice grow! Happy Farming.Thanks for the journal + rep

Thanks FollyFool, thats acctually very funny I visited Folly Beach on my way back from a road trip to florida, loved it there. Hell I gotta post the picture I took at the party store now. lol

I thought this was awesome, and took a picture of it while I was visiting folly beach.
I'll be going back for sure, in the future.

These are kinda cluster fuk'd, but I haven't updated in a while so... I've added my Barneys Farm L.S.D. and its about 7 days into flowering. I've harvested my large widows that were added first those are near the end of the pictures. I've also harvested the three that were added a week later that were the 7-9" clones, and those pictures are the first few bud shots with the half gallon milk jug next to them. I am really impressed on how well a 7-9" clone turned out, the smoke is fruity with a decent buzz. I am pleased so far. I'm currently doing a side by side with fox farm nutes I have and some Canna that a friend of mine picked up and wanted to try. I dont' really see any change between the two yet, but they are only 30 days in.

The 2.5 x 2.5 x 5' tent with the baby gate drying setup works pretty well, temps stay around 70F, with a RH of 45%, those numbers could be better, but it drys out pretty slowly and not to fast even on lil scraggly buds. You can see that the clones made way larger buds.

Barneys Farm L.S.D. 7 Days Flowering




On a side note, I noticed my Barneys Farm taking a little longer to clone, but I had a few clogged sprayers, so I will see if the new sprayer head change speeds that up.

That is weird for sure. Folly is a great little town with some "Real" people from all walks of life. Outstanding pictures of the LSD too! Hope my ladies do as well as yours? I've never tried any of this strain. How does it medicate in your openion? Does the name do it justice? Happy Farming,thanks again.....

Acctually I haven't harvested it yet, its been vegging,from seed, for two months, and I put it into 12/12 about 10 days ago. It grew from 15" to 23" as of a two days ago. The others that were flowering and finishing up were some white widow strain i got a cutting of a little while back. I'm just hoping that it don't hermie, being it was a fem seed, and I read a few things about them going sour about 6 weeks in, but who knows what kinda of conditions others put them through, my room is light tight.

The one I'm growing looks pretty indica dominate, I'm really eager to see how she does. The branching is very thick and strong, rubbing the stem smells like funky cheese at the moment. I seen a couple of hairs starting to peek out so its looking well so far. I can't wait to see what happens about the 2 week mark.

Any probs with ya LSD? im growing it along with some other strains atm, the only plant to have some weird blotchy yellowing is the LSD, although i think its starting to pass with new growth now, still in veg tho, only 3 weeks old :d

Gl on ya grow, nice crop so far

I really didn't have any problems always looked sorta droopy though, once I put it into the flower room, it picked up like crazy even though the bottom leaves still look very dark green and droopy. I think I fed mine grow big about a month into veg. Acctually This what I Gave it so far.

Think I started the seed on 7/2/2010'ish. Plain water in FFOF Soil untill the following dates. Started seed in FFOF as well.
9/8/2010 - 1/2 Tbsp Grow Big
9/13/2010 - Azamax Soil Drench
9/16/2010 - Open Sesame 1/8 tsp. (Changed to 12/12)
9/22/2010 - Azamax Soil Drench
9/27/2010 - CannaZym 5ml / Terra Flores 10ml ( I'm using new nutes on it, I'll do some clones with fox farm.

I'll add some pictures with heights tonight of my LSD, and should be transplanting the first batch of clones of it, into dirt.

Photo's later tonight.

I've been slacking on pictures, so here's a bunch all at once. I'll try to update some info after the pictures.

To many to sort in proper order hopefully they aren't to bad.

I always seem to aquire clones of that I'm not 100% sure they are what they are suppose to be. I recently picked up Caramelious, Blue Dream, and Pineapple Express. I was also asked to help out a friend and I felt bad for for the poor cuttings he was throwing away he never gave a chance so, I grabbed up a cup and put them in water to take back. These strains consisted of what I was told a Maui strain, Grapefruit Diesel, Sweet Tooth. I did a little research into the supposed sweet tooth strain. I noticed while I was helping him that it was REALLY purple on the stem, which didn't look normal to me, thought he had some problems so I started poking around and it looked identical to the Spice Of Life Sweet Tooth #3, I seen some pictures growing outdoors. So we'll see what happens I just made the best of the pieces I brought back in the cup. The maui is very easy to spot, also the sweet tooth so I know where those are in the cloner, but the grapefruit diesel and possible other blue dream clone that I saved from the cutting floor. They aren't really respectable looking clones by any means but, I couldn't see all that being thrown away, I've cloned way less just out of curiousity. I'll see what happens after a week, and weed out the weak ones.

I got a new T5 for the veg room I'm liking it so far, I put up 24hr shots after adding the T5, I will be getting more soon to get rid of the rest of the T12's & T8's I have, 4ft lights are just akward and hard to work around in the space, that poor cloner down there,.. lol.

On a side note, I know my T5's are a little high on one side, gotta make it to the store to pick up another to put the cup area with the cloner which will be alot closer.

I seem to come across alot of clones of differnt strains lately, got another two G-13 Labs Raw Diesel, and two Holland's Hope.


These are the new addtions to the flower room last night, preperation for christmas.

Hollands Hope #1


White Widow


K#1 (Not sure what this is friend said kush, but its good smoke reguardless.)


White Widow

This is the veg room currently with the misc strains. I got it setup a little better, and the lights closer to most. Once i get two sets of 2' T5's for each shelf position, I'll take the T8's and T12's out, it just doesn't look bright enough with the 10,000 Lumen single fixtures. I pulled a few of the weaker looking cutting room floor clones, to clear out some of the cloner. I also had a stoned gardening accident with one of my blue dream clones, managed a Ninja Kick to floor fakie, and couldn't bring it back it. Shit happens.

This is the flowering room with two widow's ready next week, three widows at 20 days flowering, and the Barneys Farm is at roughly 33 days.

Misc Updates.. I got rid of the bagseed citrus, was starting to hermie way to much so I just deep six'd it. So I have no more bagseed. I got quite the collection of strains though, thinking of just throwing whatever I can into flower and take a clone from each a few weeks in, then once they finish give the weak ones the axe. I'm still not very pleased with the Barneys farm so far, I've had to pick a few balls off at the begining, seems to subsided now, and they always formed at a node so I"m hoping the next set of clones don't do the same thing, the clones were vegged a little longer, and the one that I have flowering wasn't showing signs of sex before I put it into the flowering room.

The barneys farm seems to take off slow also, hopefully they fill in fast at the end but I have noticed the ramped up bud production more in the last few days.

I did a little testing with Tiger Bloom @ 2 tsp's on my white widows and they seemed to burn a lil bit more than I expected, so I'm going back to the 1 tsp for the Tigerbloom.

I need to buy some more azamax, this stuff has become a staple in the grow room. Seems to treat everything and pretty good for preventive.
