Cannaventure seeds thread

I don’t know, I’d just try the new stuff on its own and see if I needed to supplement. I’ll know in about a year or so when I need to buy more. I bought a large quantity (for me anyway) of the old formula before they changed it, when I heard they were going to change it, just in case. Now I’ve got a year to watch grows with the new MC.

Same here, I have enough of the old to last until there's plenty of reports on the new stuff.

Then...a few days later... my golden retreiver went down. 12 years old...had a good run......but wow.....just what I needed when I could barely move. It was quite the scene...him trying to walk off the embankment into the creek...me screaming in pain at every movement and trying to head him off.... it was insane on all levels

So sorry to read all of this misery you've endured. But I'll bet the retriever is now trying to convince my two previous labs that he had it better here than they did. My current boy just turned 9, my other two only lived to be 11, so the dread is approaching, even though Charlie Murphy is still doing real good. I refuse to join him in the morning creek plunge.

When I switched to cobs I was aware of the mag def issue. They only ran for about ten days before I started seeing a need for mag, I considered a few options and decided to buy a gallon of calimagic. I think it was @HydroRed that told me he was using 2ml pg, that's where I started and it cleared up the mag def pretty quick. No issues yet, I'm kinda stringing these plants along right now waiting for clones, so I haven't kicked everything into high gear yet.

To add.... I don't see a need for more calcium in MC, but like I said, the extra bit I'm adding hasn't caused any problems.

Glad it cleared up quick for you. I have yet to experience a Ca toxicity yet from the CaliMagic myself. It does a great job at keeping the Mg deficiency at bay under LED lighting.

LOL socaljoe. You just described my grow. It's been an interesting re-entry here to the indoor gig. Just about everything I could do wrong I seem to have done...and then...shit happened I couldn't control...

New spot. Have done 5 years of OD here....but gave the indoor a rest after over 25 years of perpetual/cash cropping/etc.

My first fuck up was using coco. Never has been my thing...my go to...or a medium I've ever had a non-probelmatic grow in. But like a dumbass...I had a bag of Mother Earth...and in they went.

Second fuck up....I've always used the creek to water my ganja. This year its frozen over...so I started hauling jugs down from the kitchen/well. Stupid me...failed to check pH.....and at 8....and with the coco...things started to go whacky after a few weeks. Got a tester...some pH down....and started chasing that shit (something else I hate to do/why I avoid coco)).... I did get things kinda sorta back in the zone....but yeah....by then...shit looked pertty rough across the board. Green...yellow...brown...Some selections stretched and did the beanpole....especially after I started to (I think) get the ph inline. Due to the stretch...I was then forced to prop the shorter ones up on other containers/etc. to attempt to get a somewhat even canopy.

Fortunately...the focus of this grow was merely to go through the new seeds I've purchased to check stability/end product to make some decisions as to what to run outside this coming Summer. I'm certainly not needing pot. Good thing!. In the "stability" Dept.....I definitely gave em all some torture....and I'm happy to say....no funny biz has reared it's head. Was kinda worried after some of the CT reports/etc.

Then the real "fun" arrived. A few weeks after the flip.....I went in for a colonoscopy. I broke my back in thr 90's....and was addicted for years to Oxy due to that injury. Over time I've avoided surgery///kicked the narcs....and basically have come to a place where I can exist...on most days...without >too much< pain. It's been about 10 years since I had "an event". Unfortunately....when they knocked me out and i was FULLY relaxed...which I never do....they tweeked my old injury. For 4-5 days after the procedure...I couldn't stand up without using a chair in front of me to assist....and even then it was mega painful. Like lightning striking my back. The wife was out of town....the grow is 100 ft down the hill.... and for a good week...it was all I could do to carry 2 jugs down and bend over far enough to haphazardly get some water on em. Seriously not fun. (for any of us) I mean....10 minutes + to walk 100 ft....it was crazy shit.

Then...a few days later... my golden retreiver went down. 12 years old...had a good run......but wow.....just what I needed when I could barely move. It was quite the scene...him trying to walk off the embankment into the creek...me screaming in pain at every movement and trying to head him off.... it was insane on all levels

Wife comes home a week later. Brings the flu with from the family back home. I go down for 10 fuckin DAYS. Had a foot of snow in the middle of it allI had to shovel out...and I thought I was gonna die. Again...the plants just got water tossed on em every few days in an attempt to keep em alive.... leaves curling brown....rainbow colors....buds coming on.....body just not cooperating at all. All I could do was water em and go...YIKES....

So basically...it was a month that all HELL broke loose.....and the grow suffered bigly due to it....and my stupidity early on with the pH.

It IS an fucking amazing plant though....cus there's a timeline there that they are gonna meet....one way or the other. Thankfully...the MITES didn't come...LOL.

All of this will get squished into rosin anyway....and it is offering me a peek at the >possibilities< with some of these selections. I have another round up and coming....NOT in coco....so hopefully I can eeek out something this go around that doesn't look like I'm a total noob. I'm on the fence whether pics are needed...LOL.... but thought I'd detail the grow just the same cus I did so when my OD was rockin'. I figure I gotta detail it all...not just the good stuff.. Either way...I can say that this grow is certainly one of my worst....heehee. Again though....glad I'm not depending on this for $$$ and it's all for FUN.

FWiW....plants are Round 1.... LA Affie (1)....Cheap Thrills (3)....Scarlett Johanssen (2)....Tally Mon (3) Hyper Sally Cookies (1)
Round 2.... Scarlett (2)....Purple cheddar (2).....Six Star (4)....California cherries (2)...might be another....blanking out...
Round 3....Forest Park Purple (2)....Beach wedding (1).... Cherry alien Glue Punch (3) Alien glue tonic (3).... (did 3 BW but the rooters dried out during the flu bout and 2 didn't pop. Fuck me)

Still buying seeds i don't need....LOL....but you guys know how that shit is........ have some HUrkle coming from a friend as well....so I think one of thoise will get an OD run cus I've yet to hear a bad report on it. Either way.....the gig now will be how to hold off and not end up with 40 plants (like 2 seasons ago...LOL)....cus wow.....I don't think i've ever had this many new seed selections at one time...

onward through the fog...

Thats a rough month, and Im glad its behind you. Sounds like you have a hell of a line up ready to go though!

Final CV grow report. 5 ELL plants. 1 ELL thru nanner's at 6 weeks and i tossed that one. The other 4 look fine maybe 3 different pheno's out of 5 plants. Wonderful smell lemon creamy with some after shave cream thrown in there. The ELL had significant stretch. 3 Arcata Ghost plants. 1 of the 3 thru nanner's at 8 weeks. I am just cutting them off and hoping they are sterile.No trouble out of the other two. 2 different pheno;s on this one. 1 did not stretch that much and looked just like the one on the web page. The other two were pretty stretchy. I am not saying the nanner's are from genetics or stress. The fact is i just don't know. Anyhow here are some shots from the closet. Any purple looking plants are GP Jelly PieView attachment 4263093 View attachment 4263095 View attachment 4263097 View attachment 4263099 View attachment 4263100 View attachment 4263101

I have a pack of jelly pie. How many seeds did u pop? How many females did u end up with?

Arcata Ghost chopped at 63 days. Almost all cola.

1 female out of 6 seeds on the Jelly pie. Fooled me she was the tallest and strongest( in veg) of the 6 thought sure it was going to be male.

Looking good @amos . I am going to try to take my AG at 67 ish days.Because i am try to cut everything at once. The one pheno ( Miss Arcata) looks like she wants to go a little longer.Looking forward to the smoke report from you on the AG.

Haven't noticed any before you highlighted the one. Honestly, I don't bother looking for them after 7 weeks. A few bonus seeds at the end is rarely a bad thing.

Jesus man, you've been going through it. Best wishes going forward.

Funny you should mention your difficulty with coco... I've really taken to coco quite naturally. I've made some errors here and there, but on the whole I've had very few issues once I learned to not treat it like soil, but rather to approach it from a hydroponics point of view.

I was really intimidated by the idea of growing indoors, and honestly I'm still just waiting for the whole thing to come crashing down around me. So far though, I've been employing the KISS method and it's going ok...knock on wood.

Hard to pass up that deal what 22lbs was 55.00. I might be a few years getting rid of that! Just a fraction of what i have spent in bottle nutrients over the last few years.

Even the smaller amts like the 2500 g bag for that price and even the smaller bags is great, imo, and looks like you don't use quite as much per gallon as old formula in my situation, looks like it hovers around a teaspoon throughout whole grow, give or take a ml. Win-Win

 

[socaljoe]

Just an FYI for those who'd like to try it...you can get a 750g bag of new formula Mega Crop for the cost of shipping with the code MEGACROP2 on their website.

All this MC talk is making me want to try the new formula, I think I'm going start my tomatoes for the greenhouse on it soon.

Placed order on Monday. Received on Thursday. There was a handwritten note thanking me for my business. I ordered the arcata skunk. Instead of receiving 5 fem seeds i received 10! And he threw in a 5 pack of the pure LA affie. Thanks Rusty. Excellent work! Im running the lvtk, triple nova, and pure ghost og right now. Cant wait to pop more beans from CV

Ps.. even the tissue paper he wrapped my seeds in smells great. He must spray cologne on it. This guy has thought of everything!
