1200w / Kandy Kush (Reserva Privada) / Flood And Drain

Sup everybody !

Just wanted to share a bit of my setup with fellow growers. If some of you has experience with KK that would be a plus. And yes, we do fuck with grade A genetics in Switzerland ha

Here's the setup ;

Growtent ; Secret Jardin DarkRoom 240x240x200cm. Ventilation ; 750m3/h for the intake, 1000 for the extractor but I find it a bit weak... Thinking about switching to 1000 / 1500 next sesh. 2 big additional side fans. Soil ; coco. 32 plants (had to let go a couple of them but I'll stick to 30 for the next run). Humidifer for veg & flowering (AND drying).

Been growing my babies in a mix of light mix & coco (bio-bizz for both of em) for the 18 cycle then went full coco under the 2 HPS (Lumatekk 600w x 2).

Few phenos stretched more than others, kept them in veg for a bit too long so it is what it is... My tallest phenos are on the right with 1 HPS adjusted for them. Next session will be better and more even. I'll go with some LA Woman for the next round (UNREAL smell in my memories).

For the nutes, been using Metrop's MR1, Amino Roots & Calgreen for veg and MR2, Amino Bloom, Calgreen and ATAMI's Bloombastic (started a few days ago, week 5) for flowering. I'll flush these ladies for 2 weeks but they need to pack weight till then (;

Temp ; 22 - 26° - Humidity ; 45%
EC ; 1.5 - PH ; 6.1

A few pictures of the current situation a couple days ago (week 5 flowering) ;

Any comments ? Can't wait to smoke it... I just love this strain.

Mid of week 6. Gave these ladies a "pre-flush" yesterday but the nutes will kick in until the end of next week, then 2 weeks of flush and CHOP CHOP.

Looking good than how many plants are on there.

Sorry sorry I just went back and read 32thats exactly what I want to run in my 4x8 tray.

32 yeah. 37 initially (36 KK + 1 Strawberry Banana freebie that I managed to mix with the others... SMH). 2 failed to germinate and I suspected 3 others to be herma but in the end that might have been a wrong call... Either way, better safe than sorry.

I plan to run 30 plants max for the next run for better airflow and to get more "bushy" babies.

Little update for you guys. Started week 8 today. These photos suck a bit, I'll post better ones with a flash instead of "HPS vision" before harvest.

Btw I managed to spot the Strawberry Banana freebie and well... The buds are VERY small considering It's week 8 BUT they're very very frosty even on the leaves. KK is a bit less frosty on the leaves (for now) but still sticky as fuck and all my phenos are growing some big ass buds, even the more Sativa influenced... I'm impressed. I didn't choose KK for nothing but this session clearly confirms that It's a keeper strain.

Oh and damn... I missed this jet fuel / kushy / lemon smell. So complex.

I plan to let them go a bit longer than 9 weeks but It'll all depend of the percentage of amber trichomes so I can't really say for now...

I'll dry them using 2 GSE controllers for temp and humidity set on 21° and 70%. "Dry slow homie... You never know" Ha !

Oh and feel free to ask anything or comment ! Always nice to chat with fellow growers.

Quick update. Mid of week 8. Pretty proud of the result so far.
