Yesterday I took an early sample off of one of my VK and fired up the Volcano. Wowzer... I got so forgetful that when I walked from one room to another I forgot why I went there. When fully ripe this is gonna be some fire.

Right on man - I can totally relate. I sure miss having VK in our stash...aw well, only a few more months.. :joint: We found the Vanilla Kush to be great for pain relief, and it has an awesome shelf-life. We had some left almost 10 months after it was harvested, and boy did we wish we'd kept more of it that long before smoking it... =) This round, we're likely going to tuck away a jar of it somewhere to keep for an extra-long cure... :leaf:

These plants drink very close to 2 gallons of water/nute solution a day, so every day I'm almost refilling the reservoirs completely... but I only empty the rez completely and replace it with all fresh water once every 2 weeks or so...the rest of the days I just 'add back' more water/nute to bring it back up to the fill-line. I've got a 2+ gallon bucket that I use, and I call it my 'add back' bucket for that reason... :smile:

umm do i need a waterfarm babysitter?lol.. my goodness i had no idea. I hope she will be ok for 9 hours while i am at work.
So am i correct in understanding that you Flush her out will plain water every 2 weeks.. no nutes.. and just add back in between.
cheers

That's dangerous eating water like that. I switch weekly. I'm a rook hydro. Soil different story. I'll try to get pics better I'm just really busy lately. Makin that $. Did u c that sour p, it's as big as dudes head almost. I did her in supersoil first time in ss. Had probs like yours was late from work and by the end of the day they were wilting and still turned out nice had ph issues too thought it didnt need to correct water but waswrong. This time much nicer have finger size buds at not even 2 weeks. I dark shocked. Seems to really work.

I've gotten a lot of slack about growing Barney's Farm too, and given what I know now about genetics, I might not buy BF again, but you are absolutely right, Daytz, you've nailed this one solid!

My Red Cherry Berry (also BF) is also one fun ass plant to grow. She's frickin huge and I'm flipping her to flower this weekend.

Yeah, BF has treated me very well over the past few years - we've had more than stellar results from their strains, especially the VK and Acapulco Gold - two strains we will keep growing for years to come, as long as it's available (I only grow from seed). The Red Dragon was also quite good, as well as their Blue Cheese and Crimea Blue... If I had to rate/compare them all, the TD wouldn't even be in the top 3 - but my TD grow was my first attempt at hydro, and the final flush did not go well... I haven't posted a complete smoke report on it yet, because I've found that what we got isn't a good 'smoker'...as in it is not great in 'joint form' due to our poor flush. In the vaporizor and bubble-hash forms though, it's great. Overall however, the effects and 'high' from the TD are top-notch...just have to see past the taste issue in our case.

What do you mean your flush didn't go well?

Here's my theory on what happened.... I was running my ppms way too high and root-rot started without me knowing - because that grow was so long, the roots got worse and worse... when it came time to flush and finish, most of the roots had already been damaged pretty bad from the rot, so flushing with straight water and Final Phase didn't help much with getting alot of the bad nute out of my plant at that critical time. It was a rookie mistake, but I've learned from it I hope... I haven't gone over 600 ppms yet on this current grow, wheras with the TD, I was already at about 1200 ppms at this point, peaking at around 16-1700 ppms during the that long 13 week flowering period..

Dammmm, makes total sense now. Especially since how you've told me to not over do it on the neuts. I'm going to try keep the PPM down as much as I can unless the plant tells me what it wants. Thanks for the reply mate.

Daytz what nutes u runnin that didn't flush well. I fucked up and had root pond too said fuck it no flush and it turned out great. I'm using advanced ph perfect line and all additives. They seem to really do well and I've not flushed b4 with advanced and were way cleaner tasting than organic lines with a flush. Weird but true. Still no comparison to supersoil. But even that flushed has to be cured to taste better than advanced.

Nice fucking job. Oh my god they are gonna be huge. U got that hybrid pheno. The trichs will be the most u will ever c on a plant ESP if u keep em as healthy and vigorous as they r. Stellar grow man. Be careful with that water consumtion.

Hellrazor the shorter phenos r the cherry soda, my shortest is exactly the bcs pheno my middle was the one daytz has and I also got a cleaner pheno. It was tall initially now from clones it's very bushy and compact not much work no topping looks like my grapegod in structure but more bud sites. The med is so vigorous my best overall production strain to date. Very cherry and so huge and dense and frosty nugs that r lime green when dry. The short cherry soda is the snob strain. So pretty pink and purple hued buds. Very cherry creamy stony. Had 2 males my only tga males ever prob should have kept em. Overall top notch strain can't keep em high as headband but tastes everyone says mmm to. And it smells. But lookswise it's second to none. Props
