That's awesome but also scary long as he don't know what your hobby is your all good I don't like to trust anyone with me growing my mates know I always got weed but would never tell them I grow think it's best that way there all cool cats but at the same time loss lips sink ships

So telling people is a big no no sometimes I find it hard when your growing some awesome fat buds but I just don't the only one that knows is my brother and this forum apart from that not a soul

Awesome to have you drop
In


PS your girls are looking awesome

If you wanna continue doing this hobby we love than you must carry it this way or like you said ship will sink. It's why I've been able to grow for the years I have. I don't tell anyone shit lol

Day 26 Flower 12/12

Hello all not much to say girls have been flushed again I found the problem the black russian the PH was low I was feeding at 6.2 PH and it was coming out at 5.4 so that's why she is having calcium deficiency as we all know if the PH is to low the plant can not use the calcium she needs anyway shes been flushed again till the level was up to 5.8 and ill keep a eye on her i think the leaf damage will be sure to stunt her growth


All the other girls are doing well and really starting to pack on the frost well for now ill make this a short update till the end of week 4 in 2 days enjoy your day or night

Man that's that lovely Blue Dream putting out that frost. I can spot her a mile away. Man I'm mad I don't have mines. Can't believe I let my cuts die.

Have you thought about feeding the Black Russian separate from the others? I know you can get more calcium at a higher ph. She might need her feelings to be at 6.5 to give her more calcium. Looking great bro wait till those buds start swelling. How's the smells she giving off that hazey smell and the blueberry syrup smell yet? Mines switched back and forth. Can't wait to see this finish for you

Hey bro yeah it's sad you last that cutting but if you end up getting the real deal clone only blue dream then it's not a total lose however your phenotype was sexy

Yeah blue dream is frosting it up I can wait till they really pack there weight on over the next 4-5 weeks

With the Black Russian I was thinking I might feed her on her own but I really think she's not going to recover as the leaf damage is bad the other Black Russian is fine and the one in veg that's in 100% perlite is the Same pheno as the one that has the problem the growth rate of the 100% perlite is fast I like it

Also when it comes to smell the bubblegum is too strong can't smell anything apart from that and it's like the bubblegum smell soaks in to the other girls lol sticky girls love the smell of bubblegum and on that note where is my bong

.....

Right i did however take one of the blue dreams out for look and stuck my noes in to her flowers and I would say she's got the haze smell I am hoping the blueberry smell comes that sounds awesome

Thanks for dropping in my bro hope the weekend is treating you well

Hey bro I don't normally touch my girls in flower apart from if I need to to move them and tonight I check my run off as I do and the ph keeps dropping so I took one of the blue dreams out and holy shit blueberry syrup smell was amazing super sticky couldn't smell it over the bubblegum in the tent but once I took her out she was great

Next run is going to be a all blue dream run I'll do 4 plants in 7 gallon pots under the 1000 watts

But train them better and put up a screen

Know update today apart from the smell my ph keeps dropping and it's doing my head in but I flushed them all again and on the next feed they start there PK13/14

Sounds like you may need to up the feed a lil to balance them eating so much. I think that's why your ph is dropping cus they're using up the nutes fast or raise ph of the feed.

Bro I thought I was tripping when I first smelled it but that's the best way the describe the smell straight blueberry syrup. You will get the haze terpine profile too. When she cures it's like a blueberry candy. Your gonna love her bro.

Day 34 - Flower - 12/12

Hello all hope everything is going well

The girls are doing well and starting to put on some weight looks like everything is going to need to be flower for around 9 weeks apart from the bubblegum

Nothing much to really say everything is going to plan still having a little bit of trouble with the PH but i have been feeding them at 6.3 and the run off is around 5.8 so its not perfect but they all seems to be enjoying life and praying to the light god






On a side note my little project of testing a 100% perlite grow is working out as you can see from the photo there is one in coco and one in perlite i just transplanted the poor little ones as they were really root stunted as they had no room for new roots being in little pots they are both the same age I have been amazed with the grow rate its not fair to compare them yes they are the same age but one is in a 1/4 gallon pot and one is in a 7 gallon so just its had room to grow

I just transplanted the next gen in 4 gallon pots and they will be vegged for another 4 weeks or until the other girls in flower are done they are only under a 250watt so the ones in the small pots are very stretchy but they will soon change now they have more room

The grow on the perlite is amazing i don't know what i will flower her with i might change out the 1000 watts and just run my flower tent on 600 and put another 600 on the 100% perlite girl and scrog her out ill need to make up my mind soon because shes growing so damn fast






All the best

 

[akhiymjames]

Those ladies are getting chunky bro and moving along pretty fast. Very healthy and frosty too. Don't worry about that runoff being low it's just showing they're eating pretty good. Amazing work as always bro. Can't wait to see the 100% perlite grow too I'm gonna be starting mines prolly next week. Don't know what to grow most likely be Platinum Delight but it may be something else

 

[DirtyNerd]

Thanks my bro I hope the heat has cooled from that shit day over the weekend

Your PD would be a enjoy to watch you turn that in to hydro beast but it doesn't really matter what you pick it's going to be awesome



(Perlite grow )
I am amazed how much faster they recover from training in perlite I seem to top her and super crop her and she's back to shooting out new growth in know time wish I tried it sooner just sad it's not a blue dream if only I knew that the Black Russian was going to be a bit of a flop but then Again it might be fine this run

Also like doing a set up where it's almost set and forget as the timers on lights and water makes it easy

I was only watering every 24 hours as I didn't set the timer up till Friday now I have it watering every 6 hours

And will change that once she starts drinking more

Day 36 flower

This are going well i did a little miss count on when to add my PK13/14 was meant to be from week 5-6... but i was high the last time i did a mix last week so i added PK13/14 and have been feeding them with it not a big deal i only added it at 50% the recommend amount anyway so its all good i need to do a new mix maybe tomorrow so ill at it at 50% again and run it for another week

As my PH run off as been very low i have now been feeding my girls with a PH of 6.5 to try bring it up as i don't want to move them as i have the net up now and they are starting to get a bit top heavy so try to limit there movement at this stage i did notice a little tip burn on two of the girls but they will be fine another strong week of feeding then ill start to drop her at around week 7

I don't be leave in a full flush i just drop it down a little don't take a way the food when they need it the most but then again each to there own

Nice bro!! Looking fat as hell...and healthy!! Top stuff mate

 

[Hot Diggity Sog]

Looking fantastic! Glad your PH issues are getting better. Were you able to determine if the CalMag was a contributing factor?

Thanks bro i am not 100% yet as I am still running that nutrient mix but ill make a new mix up in the morning just running the RO filter to get my 80 liters oh and shit make sure you get something to cut off your water/filter when its full i have flooded my bathroom about 3 times now as i put it on go have a smoke and forget about it for 10 hours this time i set a timer to remind me to shut it off

This time i am not going to add any Cal-mag at all as there should still be a lot in the coco and i will still run my PH at 6.5 till all my girls are back up to 6.2 then ill drop it down like you were saying before i shouldn't need it all the time so ill give them one feed every 2 weeks with 50% cal-mag the PH has been a real pain in the ass but it just goes to show not all strains are the same some don't give a shit and some hate it only two have been effected by it

One Black Russian and one blue dream but i am hoping i got to the Bluedream before she turns out like the Black Russian all a new learning thing for me changing to RO water has been a pain in the ass but once i dial it in should be fine as ill be able to push the girls to the limit and get the most out of them

Only 2-3 weeks left till i pull the bubblegum so that will be good have a big more room in the flower tent i have the girls in veg under a 400 metal halide as the 250 watt HPS was making the girls get a bit to stretchy for me but they have been transplanted and LST so should be fine now so i picked two plants to try making fem seeds one Super Skunk and one Blue Dream going to do the bottom half of each plant with the Colloidal Silver and see how it turns


Thanks for dropping in bro

 

[DirtyNerd]

Nice bro!! Looking fat as hell...and healthy!! Top stuff mate

Thanks bro yeah they are starting to come along looking forward to the next 4 weeks as they really start to pack on the fat i was thinking next time ill go back to 2x600watts
as i like the 1000 watts but the 2x600 will give me better light coverage plus a bigger yield over all me thinks

Thanks for looking bro
