and the other photos are my other girls that will be used as mothers. I love both strains one unknown and other is original midwestern pk ripper.. both of the strains i have been simply forgotten and not used anymore which is retarded because they are as good if not better than the white widow and god berry we have floating around town..
Ahhh I see, I have definitely noticed all of the experimentation going on with the different grow styles. So which style of growing do you like the most so far? I am betting you favor the dwc since you seem to have more plants using that style.
NO i actually enjoy straight up ebb and flow i can leave for 18-20 days at a time and no worries. I did that when we went on vacation last feb. 18 days and no issues. I'm actually digging my soil hybrid but without an automated drip feeder i can't leave.. only down fall but i will say the way i do soil is simply awesome and the buds taste great
What do you mean by "soil hybrid"?
I have crushed lava straight from volcano hawaii and i mix dirt to lava ratio of 70/30 70% dirt. it allows the roots to breath better along with air pots. but its not a vermiculite nor any other strange stuff they sell.. plus as for nutes LOL the lava is full of it i feed maybe once a week to once 2 weeks i water daily because the run off is fast. but the lava does retain qute a bit its a no brainerWhat do you mean by "soil hybrid"?
I have been looking for something that will allow me to leave my plants for an extended period and I think that I will end up getting a Growtronix automation unit along with their "soil sensors" http://www.growtronix.com/store/index.php?route=product/product&path=4&product_id=22 . The Growtronix will control everything including the light schedule and when the soil/coco hits the preset dryness level the "soil sensor" will recognize it and cut the water pump on for the drip feeder. When the soil/coco hits its preset saturation level the Growtronix will cut off the water pump. It sounds good in theory any way. Hopefully it will work out that way
Ahhh, I thought you might have been trying something like they talk about in this article http://www.cannabisculture.com/articles/1534.html which I have been wanting to try myself. An Ebb n Flow setup would work well with something like they mention in that article.
very interesting article. my next grow will be 4 plants lava as medium mixed with hydroton since i don't have enough lava for 4 5gal. under same ol plasma i have till around april before i even have to think of changing bulb. and i can go 2 more years with that bulb veg only lol
i guess the first thing i need to do is wait and harvest these few plants i have in here now. LOL 2 more weeks to feed then week of flush then. 4 more weeks on tangerine haze then I'm gonna clone her after i rip her flowers off. lol thats how i got this one so I'm going to repeat the process one more time and make her a mother it sucks cuz it takes 2-3 months to nurse it back to health to start growing. then i have 9 more weeks on the new addition to her its a 2 gal air-pot lava soil grow. so damn i guess i got 9 more weeks till i can do my 3rd grow. oh shit i got some blue dream I'm popping to use as a mother oh lord i got too much shit going on
I will post more pics this sunday as it is 8 weeks into 12/12 i think lol.. their getting ready smoked a few already from my one liter pots whew holy smokes good stuff and those are still 4 weeks behind lol
Ok here is last time I screw with this till all plants get harvested. Back to ebb/flow system along side my soil grows
i will say I've flowered 11 plants at a time in here.. It does exactly what it says.. as stand alone its perfect and more than enough for personal smoke up to a pound every 16-18 weeks. just depends strain how you grow and so on... Ive already smoked an ounce off her so...
hanks
very impressive and your good at what you do
Newest addition just transplanted. And that my friends is a proper
Blossom end rot, most likely. Tomatoes need lots of calcium and some magnesium. Lime and or gypsum are tomatoes friends. I use Hydrated Lime and Azomite, along with dustings of a bunch of other stuff I have on hand. I top dress with lime half way through the season. Here's a good vid to watch.very impressive and your good at what you do
