Reserva Privada Sour Kush (Headband) waterfarm

[crazyhazey]

I have had great guidance so far, I feel real blessed, and Im curious on what I yield from it hoping for a couple oz's. from it fingers crossed. Spaghetti, spaghetti lol

riu tends to make us feel this way, its great having people's constructive criticism as well as advice, second opinions without having to let someone see your grow in real life is truly a gift, id say about 1/3 of my grow knowledge came from forums, rest was just experience and old gardening techniques that apply to both growing cannabis as well as tomatos, basils, marigolds and many other acid loving plants.
and just a rough estimate, you should be expecting more than a half pound from this(especially since you gotta 400w, if you get a g/per watt should be close to 14 ozs), but whatever headband doesnt make up for in yield it sure does in potency. cant wait to see trichs pack on, this strains looks magnificent towards the last few weeks to say the least, if you got the correct pheno im sure youll be seeing some cool colors on those leaves pretty soon.

I agree RIU really gave me alot of fine tuning plus the ability to become more knowledge about everything this beautiful plant has to offer. wow half pound would be great, anything over a quarter pound would be great, if i got close to 14 oz from this, I will go ape shit.

haha yeah that would be pretty killer, i bet if you did a vert or stadium grow next time you could get at least a g/watt.

not sure what a vert or stadium grow but will check it out, plus a gram a watt would be great

 

[noob78]

I get the vertical and stadium style grow, Ya that would be nice if I had a more room, But i only grow for personal use. I grow two plants at a time, in 2 tents so that would be a bit excessive for just me, but I would find something to do with it lol. Other plant is RP kandy kush and it is 5 days into 12/12 and stinks with carbon filter.

Update day 20
ppms 900
humidity 20%

Looking awesome! Hmm, I keep feeling like I want to say something but I don't know if I should. Supposedly all plants need a certain amount of humidity to carry out it's processes like photosynthesis properly. I've heard 35% but I think that's too high for cannabis, honestly, as there just isn't a whole lot of cannabis specific research, and my notes and other folks tell me differently. I usually keep around the high 20's and very low 30s (28%-32%) and have good results. I just looked around, and it some very random sources said that too low of humidity affected the stomata of the plants, which resulted in them not taking up as much co2 and o2. I wish I had the time to find some scientific, or university published articles but I can't find any right now. I'll look later though.

Anyway - Something to toss into your playbook, if those plants start getting wilted or crispy, try bumping up the humidity 5-10% without sacrificing air flow if you could, to see the difference. Not saying you need to do this now, but if your ever looking to tweak, 15-20% humidity may be on the verge of being low. Now I'm sure once your plants are late in flowering you could crank out the humidity to promote resin production, but in the flowering stage where the foliage is still growing and expanding you could try with higher humidity.

Sorry, don't mean to fuss at you about minute details now, just wanted to bring it to your attention, before I forgot . I just feel like your leaves might look a little dry, shiny. Which could be the humidity. If your ever bored look at some plant transpiration articles. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transpiration

You need no disclaimer in my thread ever or anyone else. I will not take credit for your work or anyone else. You of all people have free reign in my thread from here until.And you are quite gracious to say my plant is bigger than yours, to me yours is the measuring stick, so wow humbled by your comments thanks.

No no you have me wrong! I'm not stuck up worried about someone using my pics, if I was I'd watermark them . But no I just didn't want to confuse that dude. This is your journal. I feel like times have changed, but originally RIU members were explicitly warned against posting their own photos in someone elses journal unless they were explicitly told to. So yeah, I'm not trying to take away from your thread dude!

I pulled about two twenty grams off a 250w.. those have about 30k lumens on the hortilux bulbs? How many lumens does your bulb have?

Your doing pretty much just as good as I was doing, except I did two plants that were smaller. I think your canopy is far bigger, and your light is obviously far bigger. So you should at least pull a similar yield ratio if not better. .88g x 400 = three fifty two grams.

Make sure you have a plan for that sugar leaf trim! It's F'in GLORIOUS.

could always just keep one room for a mother, take clones and fill out a mini-stadium or vert, if your gonna blow all that dough on an HID might as well use every last lumen, thats what i call true efficiency.
your gonna build up a tolerance eventually, so your probably gonna have to grow more to satisfy it, always better to have excess weed rather than worrying about being short on it, if i could id be growing fields of it and making like pounds of BHO and dry ice hash, one can only dream. are you gonna do a journal for the kandy kush lady?

My humidity is 35-40% when fan is off, I did not mean to say that you were taking anything from my thread, I just was trying to give your grow credit and say that those were your pics from your grow and not from mine. I meant do disrespect. You have help me out a bunch never wanted to offended you. i have been fighting the humidity with the fan on since I started. Will read the article. And not sure what to do with the sugar leaves. And I think my light was to close to the tops, so I raised it, so thinking that might help with my dry leaves

Ya I might look more into the mini stadium grow at some point. ANd yes you are right about rather have a excess of weed than a shortage. But I'll just update this journal with pics and progress, and start a new journal on my next strain which will be either og #18 or Mkage looking for something strong. Haven't decided yet.

Yeah the radiant heat from the bulb can dry them out too! And no worries bro


For sugar leaves, look into bubble hash with bubble bags.... or BHO.. but bho is serious business, requires investments and learning many techniques all on its own!

I'd say at least pick up some bubble bags to make bubble hash... dry ice or regular ice! It's nice to have balls of hash around, to spice up your bowls every now and then.. Or all the time .

 

[noob78]

yes will look into bubble bags and yes the light was super close I'll see how the rebound now, plus been looking at your sour kush thread and very excited for the next 2 weeks.

youll be glad you did, after you do its pretty hard to go back to flat grows.
you seem to like those mind blowing indicas, i tell almost everyone this when they ask for a suggestion but id say your looking for something like herijuana, maybe KO kush, check out sannies. you like scrogging too so maybe selene or kolossus, they yield very well. killing fields does too but your looking at an extra 2-3 weeks of flowering.

that it is, ive recently figured out how to get a pretty translucent product, it looks almost like a gummi bear haha. mostly people will start of getting a really brownish product that smokes sort of harsh but theres some methods to making it more pure, just gotta keep it under the right temps so the butane airs out nicely, you can end up spending a fortune on extractors, bho, etc. as for ice hash, you need a lot more trim and it has the potential to be pretty expensive if you want to get the best value.

Will look into sannies and thanks for the suggestions. And I'll probably just bag the trim and save it untill i have enough for trail and error runs of bubble hash. I also have some good sativas I want to grow but trying to find a strong indica for sleep and a strong daytime smoke as well.(sativas i have are chocolope, slh,sage and sour, and delahaze)

if you do order from sannies get the extrema freebie. sounds like a good idea though, i think im gonna get a keiff box for my clippings soon but i need to find a really big one, or i may end up getting impatient and making BHO as always, i think its better with somewhat wet clippings too. if you wanna strain that puts you out heri is for you, i like sativas for the day time but i do smoke mostly for back pain so strong indies are always good, i was gonna look into chocolope soon though, or maybe sannies jack hammer.

Will look into kief boxes sort of forgot about those. And herijuana looks nice.

i always go to my local headshop with the intent to buy a keiff box, but i always end up buying a bong or some raw papers. next time i think i should bring somebody to remind me why i went there in the first place so i dont let myself get carried away in the glass section haha.
i could easily say herijuana is one of the most powerful strains ive smoked next to white rhino and tahoe og, it amazes me that its not in the genepool of that many plants by now, i was sure they would have made a herijuana auto by now. i also looked for a herijuana x big bud or a herijuana x chronic cross but am yet to find one, i might have do some breeding myself.

Do sannies deliver in the states? Really been thinking about the WHITE OG V2 or Beezle Bubba

yup, white OG sounds good, almost anything bubba(personally i like pre9 usually impresses me.

Alright thanks I haven't yet tried bubba but will soon, thinking cali connect.

thats probably the only real source for it when i think about it, you might be able to find others though. check out rcmcollective.ca, maybe browse a few of their strains im sure youll find some strains you like.
