nice harvest there 1BMM. I like the drying rack, but if you kept your plants in long stalks and hung them, the mites would go to the uppermost point and gather in a ball there (it's gross, but true). Then you can hit them with a little flame (I like my soldering torch) and exterminate them with the most extreme prejudice. Very satisfying vengeance I find. Whatever mites are on your buds now will leave once they can't suck any juices from leaves anymore, but where they go is anyone's guess.

All that said, I want one of those racks! 40 bucks, huh?

Huh i never gave that much thought shnk. The mites seem to have left the buds sos who knows where they went. Hopefuly along with all the trim.

The drying rack i have can be purchased online from the hydro source for like $38.00 I got the large one they do have a smaller model for a bit cheaper.

1BMM

looks nice
heard a lot of good things about DOG.
when you say 12/12 from clone, are you giving them time to root? if so how long before you flip? or how long would you recommend?
I am planning 3 weeks from cutting to flower. planning 16 under a 600. (chronic)
love to hear some recommendations from someone who has done similar.

12/12 from rooted clone is what i meant to say lol. Ive done a few plants this way and the plants seem to ripen more evenly when you got a smaller plant. Im already dreaming up ideas for my next run haha

Nice Whodat I think i might invest in a drying rack. I still got quite a ways to go

i've never seen a mite or anything else except for fungus gnats!
maybe they don't like dry hot areas?

they LOVE dry hot areas! you must have some of the best luck but if you grow from seed only and dont go outside often before going straight to your grow room then your well protected from getting mites. most people dont realize mites live outside so when your walking through grass or some bushes you can easily pick some up like that and transplant them directly into your grow. i have a good idea thats how our buddy Headsup got them, damn golfing! hahaha

 

[Heads Up]

Well thank you jig for the compliment and the info. As you know I grow in soil and when I administer, how'd ya' like that word? Anyway when the girls get gravity, I give them just gravity nothing else in the water, I also try to keep my lights a foot from my plants so I also don't raise them when I do give them gravity as they suggest. This grow I have only fed my plants once a week at a third the strength recommended. Some were vegged for about five weeks a couple a week less and I only fed them three times and they look great. I flipped them last sunday and so far have given them no nutes, just some supplements, liquid karma, some molasses and mycorrhizae and of course silica and hygrozyme and one dose of cal-mag so far for the entire grow. I don't like to give them P during the transition from veg to flowering for at least a week to try to help keep the stretch under control. It's really been in the last day where I'm noticing they are starting to stretch. I got in late from work and only had a few minutes before lights out but I noticed it immediately from this morning when the lights came on.

cof, my extrema is a male. I'm not sure if I'm going to yank it or what? The problem is that the other plants I have going are feminized and I don't want to pollinate a feminized plant, something or other about weird genetics. I've thought about freezing it but I think it's just going to go and I'll wait to get some pollen when I do a complete regular seed grow. Damn shame too, I was thinking if any of them turn out male I hope it's the extrema. Nice looking plant. Nice internodal spacing and nice side branching. I'll get a couple of pics before he gets killed off tomorrow. The pics, not the execution.

 

[Heads Up]

Thanks for the likes i really do appreciate them it's been a long journey from that first grow under cfl's and the more i do the more help i get the better i become..So thanks...Peace

You're gonna' love this thread stinky, stick around and your head will be exploding trying to absorb all the knowledge here.

Hey stinkbudd1, welcome to the thread. I stopped by your thread to have a quick look and will definitely get back there. You'll find a few guys growing Sannies here too, including myself. I've got Jack Hammers, Extrema's and a couple of Cheeseberry Haze. Most of them are not much older than yours, only a couple of weeks or so. I'm sure the others will chime in too.

Duchie

Sannie here too, Shackzilla, Killing Fields, Extrema, Herijuana x big white and Hericules.

Haha, very good. The 600 seems to be pretty "Old Guy" friendly.

cof, what do ya' think about that comment? I'll have you young guys know, us old guys forgot more stuff than we remember.

Just a quick question for you guys at club 600,will putting a blue mystic into 12/12 from seed affect the overall yeild and quality of the plant,im a bit unsure as ive had conflicting answers on the subject,people say that you get same yeild and quality and others say you get less yeild but same quality,please could you help clarify my question,thanks and peace out....;.)

Yield not quality.

Nice description of the death process, death to mites. Masonman did ya' get that rack from htg?

i've never seen a mite or anything else except for fungus gnats!

How do you deal with the dryness out there? Do you use a humidifier?

One last thing from this page. Masonman, I agree about the dog, some of the stickiest bud I've grown. Even cured it keeps its stickiness. Thank you seed fairy.

Fatboy, I've been holding this neville's haze and hawaiian snow for over a year. Last year I grew an Arjan's haze #1 that was superb, pure rocket fuel, real hazy tasting, almost metallic. Twelve weeks of torture it was, almost thirteen. I guess I'm just a sucker for punishment cause the neville's haze could take fourteen weeks. To me, it's worth the wait. I can tell ya' the acapulco gold I just finished smoking was not gold but it was pretty good. I didn't grow it but I do have a feminized seed of it. I can remember some of the gold from the old days being so golden if you dropped your wedding ring into a pile of bud it would disappear. I once had the pleasure of smoking some weed straight back from vietnam, it came home in a pair of speakers from one of my friends return to the states. Some good weed from the old days, people think the weed is better today, I disagree. The whole problem with a lot of people who think that, they weren't smoking weed in 67/68'.

 

[indecline]

Ive had clones in my tent going 12/12 from cutting, took about 3 weeks to root in soil before they did anything.

Ive been asking so much because i want to get it running right from the start. dont want to do a few runs before i find out the right veg time.
Because i want perpetual I need to take cuttings from mothers.

out of your own experience, what would you recommend for size of cutting and rooting time.

Plan is take the clones from mothers (no idea about size) veg for 3 weeks and then flower for 9.
thats for the heads up about them fitting, hopefully its ok
just wondering what size clones might work best for this.

I dont like asking so much but its the first time ive tried perpetual sog so i want to make a good crack of it first time.

Or maybe back in 68 your tolerance was a lot lower than it is 40 years later

idk who your askin,but ill bite...
it really comes down to strain,and what light you are going to veg with.
for me the grapegod strain grows real fast under t-5s,and roots in like 8 days.
i do not have the room for mom plants,so i do clones of clones,i veg plants till 12",bout 4 weeks,take clones off plants,
put in dome,and repeat....my clones are about,4" with 2 nodes.

The pics are out of control today, damn!
1BMM, Whodat, Jig, and it goes on and on I feel. I have been wanting one of those drying racks for a few months now and have just not bought one for some stupid reason. I'll be getting one soon though.

I agree with 1BMM on the Dog being the stickiest bud I've grown or trimmed to date. The first one I pulled down caught me off guard a little with how frosty and sticky it was. The second was every bit as frosty and sticky but was completely riddled with seeds. I found a couple nanners while trimming it today that opened. I don't know I missed them but did and will now pay the price
The PH has a few seeds in it, the headband too and the JH had just a couple that I found. Those are what was in the tent but most of the plants in the 4x8 scrog had seeds to some degree too and I am now thinking it may have come from the dog and not the afghan kush plants that got spluffed by the RBC.

Anyone like to speculate on how likely it is that there would still be some viable pollen on them that could be blown off by the fan 4 weeks or so after they got spluffed and had been sprayed an easy dozen times with insect spray? I'd really like to know so I can have a better idea of what the seeds are in these buds.

 

[Budmasterflash]

well its bin a bit cause my net has bin down but here are the strawberry cough figure i should post it before my net drops out again.

they really seem to like my design getting nice and bushy, just topped them before the pic

 

[whodatnation]

looks good masterflash whats your ppm and ph looking like? I ask because Im just starting hydro for the first time. From what Iv read they like a lower ph of like 5.7 during flower but veg they like it a little higher around 6.1ish correct? and at the stage yours are in your prob giving them damn near full nutes, if not full nutes?

edit: temp too, water around 66-67?

 

[whodatnation]

Anybody want to chime in???? lol wow, I never thought Id say that in the 600

PH i adjust to 5.5 and then let it float up to 6 then adjust again to 5.5 the plants take up diff nutes at diff PH levels

PPM is at 1100 right now i go full 1400 2 weeks before 12/12 always best to give to little then to much

water temps sit at 70 -72 F

cab temps 80.5 - 35%RH
dark temps 73.5 - 25%RH
as for the higher ph thing in flowering it may be true but im not sure.
hope that helps

Thanks for the info bro! appreciate it much

interesting, would love to see pics of 3 oz sog plants please. Do you grow these as commercial strains? You must be hitting like 2g/watt if you are pulling those numbers. Very good stuff Del.
I must say, the SSH would pull that in a sog, but the way the one I got growing now is, it's gonna take about 26 weeks to finish, lol.ffs.

i got thc bomb x bubblegum that will pull 3 and the grapefruit im doing now will pull 2 each easy

 

[brick20]

600w type shit:

 

[Hotsause]

I feel like a let down Next round will be Both of my Dogs along with another strain my seed collection is so damn big right now i have no idea what i want to do.

 

[mr west]

U must of been excited brick, this was the only pic in focus lol. I need to get me self a digi balast lol.

not 2g a watt dry mate, only got 7 under at the mo, 3 will go around 1-1.5 dry each and 4 will go 2 oz plus each. ive done orange bud, northern lights, thc bomb, bubblegum, white shark, grapefruit, hash bomb, ultra skunk .also got royal hash plant and lemon skunk on go now.......have you had a look in my bubblebomb album to see how big they get, the one next to the 2 litre coke bottle?
