Multi-Strain grow 600w 15 strains perpetual harvest

[Nuikala]

Hi and welcome to my 15 strain perpetual type harvest.
Its my 3rd(2nd non-bagseed) grow. My first 2 were CFL.
This grow im using 600w HID and 2 tube 4 foot t-8 side lighting.
I have a CoolTube Reflector, 2 exhaust fans, passive intake.
4x4x7 Tent. Usually i have CO2 added, but not now i ran out of stuff.
I am using Sensi Grow PH Perfect from Advenced Nutrients as my base. I add CalMag and BioThrive Bloom as well. Sometime i put a bit of molasses in the flowering plants too. The autos are on 3/4 strength nutes.
Temps are around 80 or less during the light on, 70 or even down to 65 lights off. RH around 55% this time of year.
I am running 19/5 lighting schedule, with a couple plants on 12/12 in a closet for their dark time.
The bigger plants are on day 52 from seed. The Chocolope Kush is a couple weeks behind, and the WW and PK are 2.5 weeks from seed.
The strains are 2xSuper Lemon Haze. 1 is all natural, and 1 I topped once and LST lightly. They are nice looking plants. Just starting to show preflowers after 8 days of 12/12.
Think Different- Kinda disappointed with it, i was expecting a bigger plant for 52 days for sure. Nice and healthy tho, lots of bud sites, hope it fills in.
Auto Viking Blue - Real bushy, very thirtsy plant. Loves the nutes.
Dark Devil - Lanky and branchy. Covered in trichs, but no purple or dark buds???!! Stinky, sharp odour to the plant.
Sweet Afgani Delicious Auto - Nice chunky buds already, defeinitely going to take alot longer than manufacturer says. Nice stinky smell and going to yield pretty decent i think.
Chocolope Kush - I started this plant in DWC, it wasnt doing well, was stunted and got root rot due to high temps. Transplanted to soil a few days ago and its starting to looks better. Cant wait for this one to grow. mmm chocolope and kosher together.
Auto White Widow - 2 1/2 weeks old. Had a bit of ph issue due to me being broke at the time and using crap seedling soil. Its fixed up now pretty much, had to wait for it to get bigger to ad the PH Perfect.
Auto Purple Kush - Pretty much same story as the white widow, at least this one will turn purple even if my Dark Devil doesnt.
6 strains just sprouted, sitting in the corner waiting for the autos to be done are;
U-Pink Kush
Acapulco Gold
Critical Hog
Bubblegummer
Romulan Diesel
Strawberry-Blue
Im am kinda trying to make a perpetual-ish grow. hope it works out I may have gotten a little ahead of myself with 14 different strains
I have a converted dresser with CFL lighting if i need it
Heres some pics of the girls. Theyre a little cramped, the 2 small autos, and 6 seedling are going into the dresser, more than likely tomorrow.
Peace...leave your comments.

Good luck. I found Think Different to be a pile of crap (except for one plant out of 20), but it also took closer to 100 days for me so you probably still have a ways to go. Learn to clone you will likely want to keep those SLH plants around. Sounds like it's the only really proven strain you're running other than Romulan Diesel (assuming it's Next Gen's version). Actually the SAD is supposed to be good but the auto versions are always inferior.

Chocolope Kush has good proven parental lines but I haven't seen many grows of it and sometimes two lines don't mix very well so I'm not sure about it. Could be good though.

Cloning 101 is pretty much maintaining the environment and temperature. 90+% RH and 80F and you will have high success. Circulate air to avoid potential problems. Voila, success. Some lines are very difficult to clone, just the way it is. You can probably find out what you've got that's challenging with a little research but most stuff is pretty forgiving. Herijuana is a bad one, some of the OG/diesel lines are bad.

Once again, good luck. Also, it's not too late to clone the plants in flower (well, autos its pointless).

 

[Ringsixty]

Simply marvelous.

 

[Nuikala]

I have more SLH seeds , I would take a clone but no room for it.

 

[OGEvilgenius]

You can clone in a REALLY small area. I've seen so many people say "Damn I regret not taking a clone of that". Don't be that guy IMO. But yes, you will likely find good plants in those seeds as well.

 

[Nuikala]

I guess i do have the room....and rooting gel...ill take a clone of each tomorrow. I regretted not taking one of the Nirvana Northern Light i grew last time.
Oh ya the strains and their breeders for better info;
Romulan Diesel - Next Generation
Super Lemon Haze - Greenhouse
Strawberry Blue - World Of Seeds
Think Different - Dutch Passion
White Widow Automatic - Pyramid
Purple Kush Auto - Buddha Seeds
Sweet Afghnai - Sweet Seeds
Dark Devil - Sweet seeds
Viking Blueberry - Norden seeds
U-Pink Kush - Dr. Underground
Critical Hog - TH Seeds
Chocolope Kush - DNA genetics
Bubblegummer - Female seeds
Acapulco Gold - Barneys Farm

Im most excited to try the romulan diesel and SLH. The critical hog and strawberry blue were wildcard choices. just random picks.
The S.A.D will be the first plant done I think, followed by the Dark Devil. then the blueberry, then think different and one of the SLH. The other i am leaving for 12 weeks.

What r you smoking rite now. Im smoking some coconut kush. Dont know if thats what its really called but its kush and smells like coconuts...so thats what im callin it

Anyone tried Jack Herer? Is it any good?

 

[Nuikala]

Hey well i found out my Dark Devil is a cross of Big Devil #1, which is....Jack Herrer...so I guess I will see.....

So the plants are looking good. The SAD and DD are coming along nicely. SAD has real chunky kush-like buds and the DD is sticky and frosty and turning some nice pink and purple colours a bit.
The blueberry stinks.
The TD is still doin its thing, growing slowly and hopefully keeps growing and growing.
The Super Lemon Haze are turning into beauties. They already have a strong smell. Pistils are coming in now. Stretch is on. 20-24 inches tall.
The 2 small auto's...white widow and purple kush, are planted in outside garden dirt (i was broke ) and are having a bit of a PH issue and are a bit small. The PK has thrown some pistils already and its small. Need to water with PH perfect but the soil just wont dry fast enough for my liking....
The 6 seedling are doing ok under a few cfl. Got to get some bottled water for them today, i gave them tap water once and they are a bit twisted up. One cfl fell down and killed Acapulco Gold RIP
Ill get some pics up later today....

Also i never mentioned I have the plants in 5.5 Gallon fabric grow bags, which are just reusable grocery bags, they cost a buck or less and work AWSOME. they grow an INSANE amount of roots with these bags. Plus by cutting the bottom off my Solo (styrofoam) cups, I plant then an inch or two under the dirt in the big pot and the autos have more tap root room as a bonus. i always use about 30% perlite, 40% Promix peat based soil, and the rest some sort of casting or compost. This grow most have SeaSoil/Perlite/Promix. The SeaSoil is awesome, $10 bucks a bag, has all your forest and ocean fines in it. SeaSoil.com based on Vancouver Island, BC, Canada. Really IMO you could use this soil, mixed with some Perlite, and if your an auto grower you could plant and forget about it, just PH water and thats it. Sounds like im plugging the company, but I tried lots of different soil and thats the best ive found and its cheap too. Waters easier than most soils as well, with no surfactant. I cant get FFOF here and from what ive read people have TONS of issues with burning their plants using it. I tried MG soil on 2 plants before, it was ok, but once i had to add fertz it went all whacked on me. I can recommend from my experience the MG seedling and Seed Starter soil. its excellent and keeps just the right amount of water. Just for your seedlings.

Get 2 little circle rubber made dishes, probably like 4inches across. Put one on top of the other. Put 1 low watt CFL in desk lamp. boom under 1x1 cloning area. And it works. Take the top dish off spray it put it back on once a day. Use little jiffy pete pellets. Take a cut put it in the pete and squeeze that sucker in there. You can fit 6 in the dishes I use.

If you don't mind I will post pictures of the clones I have right now in my 1x2 veg cab in the containers I am talking about.

Check out some pics so u can see how the plants grew from little babies to the ladies they are now.
Im still going through pics so il will upload alot more too, with some nice BUD PORN
The buds on the Dark Devil are SUPER FROSTY, STICKY and STINKY SWEET
The Blueberry is gonna be connossieur grade for sure, very very sticky greasy and blueberry smell is very strong already. I will beat the 15-30 gram yiele estimate from the seed company..
The Think different started off slow but is starting to fill in now. I added about 325 watts of extra CFL to the 600W HPS. Still not overly impressed with the TD yet, but it should be a decent yielder just not what i tthought it was going to be. Smells nice, like The Church from Greenhouse.
The SAD auto has FAT nugs, dense round and stinky. Pretty frosty. Ive taken some tester nugs for wuick dry and the weed is strong already. It was supposed to be done at the beginning of last week but all the plants are a couple weeks behind, i dunno why but they flowered very late, but grew big so cant complain.
The Super Lemon Hazes are really really nice plants. I have 2 different phenos, one very lanky tall, long branched and delicate with skinny finger leaves that are very sativa, the other i topped so automatically its shorter, but it would have been anyway, the leaves are much more indica with fingers that overlap, the bud structure so far is more round/dense, while the other is seeming that its going to be more foxtail/fluffy buds that curl around the stems. The branches on pheno #2 are also much stronger than the lanky one. They are both VERY healthy and show good genetics.
The Chocolope Kush has been rescued and is thriving, undergoing some Heavy LST. Probably will put into flowering in 1.5-2 weeks.
My auto White Widow and Auto Purple Kush started flowering, i wish they were bigger but at least they are healthy. Will be a small yield but at least i will get to try those 2 strains.
The Critical Hog, Pink Kush, StrawberyBlue, Romulan Diesel, and Bubblegummer are doing good, sitting in the corner waiting for more room, doin the slow-veg. The Acapulco Gold from barneys died when a light fell on it.
More pics to come.....with Nug Shots.

 

[BeastGrow]

you'll love the bubblegummer she fills buds over 80% of the plant and only stretches for first week of flower and needs supports during last few weeks... did great in a 3gallon container with LST and zero pruning.. staking at week 5 or 6

Anyone tried Jack Herer? Is it any good?

*raises hand*

I LOVE how the strain grows. I grow a 3-week cycle perpetual, I go straight from rooted clone into 2L Coke bottles (some soil, some Hydroton). Jack Herer for me grows short and extremely tight. There is no side branching, and the bud grows all the entire way up the stem. They grow between 9 and 12" tall, perfect for my operation.

I don't smoke, so I can't tell you about that, and my girl who does isn't here right now. She really likes it though. It does however give a fantastic flavour to my edibles though.

Other than my Chemdawg, for growth phenos, JH is my favourite plant in my garden.

Sounds good, i think im will order a couple JH. Where should i order it from, looking for FEM seeds. Jah Herrer from homegrown fantaseeds looks good, what about BCBD Jack Herer?
Dark Devil Bud Shot:

More Pics coming today

 

[Nuikala]

Heres an UPDATE on some pics.
My camera sucks, usually i would have some good trichome close-ups but im working with a new and lesser quality camera.
How much longer till harvest on the Dark Devil and SAD? I think 2 weeks for the DD and a week and a half for SAD.

 

[Nuikala]

Harvested the Dark Devil and SAD auto. Nice nugs. Yield was very decent. Will have more info and pics soon.

 

[Rhindris]

What's up on the rd as if late man? I just got me a few packs in and excited. I got ya subbed, awesome grow. I'm a noob and going to be finishing my first grow in a few weeks. I have a few white Russians from serious seeds, and some thc bombs from bomb seeds plus a handful of odd stain freebies kinda like you. Really kickin journal bro, maybe I'll do a journal proper from geek with those rd. so freaking excited to try growing some Romulan! I have two six hundred watt six " cool tubes with with some great reflectors in my setup. maybe I can toss you some qs one day when I get it started soon.
