hello

i am a noob when it comes to this....i need help getting the correct understanding of Berry Ryder


i have been reading and watched everything i could (last month and half) and i am getting conflicting info ..........what i am doing is proof of concept to several ppl with the laws changing in my area finally......my over all goal is to grow 2 plants and get as close to 2 oz as possible 1 oz from each ........i picked this strain because it is easy( photo period is not a factor) and blueberry

seed..............Berry Ryder
medium.........(mixed soil details below )
container .......Breathable Fabric Aeration Nusery Pot With Handles, 3 gallon
box................36x15 x12...intake fan/exhust......mylar (posted a simular one from ebay).....i liked it
light.............. 3 cfl 6500k....3 cfl 2700k
water.............distilled
Nurts.............Organic ( extact ones listed below)

soilmix

i went to my local nusery...asked for a bag of their organic...and a bag of peat moss...bag of their potting mix ( i told the guy what i was doing to asure i got what i asked for )....when into the local woods/marsh area and gathered some..................took them all and put in a big tub and mixed ( cost 15 bucks and 3 hours) .......i have a ph meter it is reading 6.5-7.0 jumping back and forward between the two.......1 foot organic 1 foot potting 1/2 foot of peat moss 2 foot of local woodland is the mix

questions
1......i heard/read that autoflowers like 1/4 normal amount ....should i flush 1 gallon distilled water tho
2.......i heard if u use a mix like this u do not need to do any feeding but flower enhancement...then at 1/4 getting to 1/2 the week before flush 3 weeks total
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
light

ok there is so many different times
i am thinking
veg............24/0.............4 weeks of the 6500 cfl
flower.......20/4...............5th week to final with 2700 cfl
total time......10 weeks

is this correct

Nurtrients/PH

looked all over ppl on here mostly post about fox farm i picked to go with this based on the reply posted at the bottom
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004PS4B08
and
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000BNKWZY

to apply these u use a gallon of water mix in with a ML dropper for 1/4 str and pour in untill it comes out the bottom stop and do it when soil is dry .......let soil dry every 3 time use a light spray mist on the leaves with nurts along with plainwater
for the soil

as for what mixs and dosing i am not getting any really anwers to many different veiw points
( i know it is stepping on trade secrets but help a niggar out......good karma....can PM me and i will delete and take to grave )
if anyone has a set up that has worked for them and they are willing to share with others post please

Flower Enhancers

i know even less on this i am reading as i post this to gain more info

what i do know is .....u want thicker and stickier u need to use something ....and bud candy is one of the better ones.....when u use it.....it is the last 3 weeks before u flush

info u want to share

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Flushing

i know distilled water .......what about the sledgehammer from Foxfarm

is this better for Nurt burn then just flushing
is this better then just a plain water flush at the end before harvest





thanks for reading any help with my project would be greatly accepted ...............before u call me a dumbass and read more i wrote this becuase there is to much info so best to ask the ppl with exp hence this in this section.......................spelling mistakes and grammer issuses i am sorry it is 3 am here and dsylexic (i stopped caring too) ....anything u have a ? about ask i will post ....if i gave u a head ache from reading this i am sorry


 
At least you know you give headaches, LOL
Just kidding, but that WAS a lot more drawn out than it had to be.
First off, I haven't heard a lot of good about distilled water.
Maybe try spring or drinking water from a machine for 25 cents/ gal. if you don't like your tap water.
Did you add any Dolomite Lime and Perlite to your mix?
I like vegging with mixed spectrum, I tried it my first indoor grow, and it worked great.
I used 5000k and 2700k, and just added more 2700k for flowering.
From 98w mixed to veg, and 305w the last month or month and half of flower, I got 2.7 oz. from one plant.
Once you start flowering, I wouldn't foliar spray unless necessary for bugs.
 
i heard distilled water was the best since it has been cleaned of everything even more so then reverse oz method....less chance of salt building up

the soil i did not add anything other then what i listed .........i told the guy what i was doing and he said he would make sure it was right ( the stuff from the woods was near a stream bed marsh area i know that is protected land

light ok i will go with 2 6500 and 1 2700 for veg and switch it for flower

flowering no spray not even bud candy/plain water............ thanks for the tips .....i listed all that info becuase i sawl other ppl asking ?s and ppl gave them crap becuase they did not give the info .............figured if i can get this right i can make a grow plan for berry ryder post for ppl like me and move to next strain
 
Gadammit, people at stores are there to help you buy things, not help you produce things.
You can ask for advice when you go shopping, but you must always use common sense, like when listening to advice on websites.
 
the guy at the nursery was a stoner buddy of mine from back in the day (when i was teen he would be on the other sofa packing something for the stone off smoke untill u say nawl) he wants this to work he wants to try it , he is the one that said double check before u use a good seed and not to do hydro for the first time out .....soil is more forgiving then hydro .............otherwise i would have blowen the 40 buck and had some of the light warrior sent into me


there is just so many confliciting info on this strain and what Nurts to use to much and stunts to little and stunts ............if i master this and then photoperiod timing i can move to hydro ( i have some photo seeds good stuff i was going to mother them and then clone hydro in a bigger set up once this one was used to the fullest i can learn from
 
come on ppl ......the more u help the more i learn the more i learn the quicker i can post how to do it in soil and learn hydro and post that and finally......ppl that are startting can get a good Auto flower


i have looked everywhere for Strain to grow plans .........there is nothing on the market for this help make it ...........other ppl out there go anal and figure it out post for ppl

Once i learn the correct mix of Nurtients for berry ryder to get it nice and sticky /icky with phat thick buds i will post for u all ........that is the kind of person i am .......someone out there give me a hand in getting a good understanding to this Strain so my trail and error period is short and very fruitful
 
the sticky icky you speak of is genetic a plant will only perform to its limits it has to be fully finished and cured proper
if you have a good organic soil with plenty of perlite atleast 1/3 you can grow a wonderful stoney sticky icky plant with just water and some molasses for the finish there are plenty of people to help but none of us are there to hold your hand the nutes are trial and error . the best part of growing a auto is not knowing what pheno your going to get some tolerate nutes and some dont

instructions
first off you need a lite seed starter medium there are few auto's that tolerate hot soil at this point of life remember growth now affects your final yield drastically
1 plant in final container
2 do not feed until show of preflowers start with 1/4 strength nutes
3 usually i feed grow nutes until the puff balls of flowering show most of the time its 2-3 weeks after initial preflower then start at 1/4 str flower nutes
4 wait wait wait do not remove any vegetation from the plant
5 wait some more
6 most auto's run 8-12 weeks so know how long it runs then judge by the trics when to start your flush i usually give just water the last 2 weeks i also over water at this point to try and wash excess nutes from soil

breeder times are a ballpark figure usually about 2 weeks longer to grow out then what they call for

advice is DO NOT over water auto's like there roots to breathe let it dry up a bit between waterings you will learn your plant and its needs no one can tell you how to have experience that all on you
 
for the water leave it 24 hours and then ph it and adjust accordingly it can be tap water just let it sit and the cclorine will evap the reason drinking water is no good is its ph'd for the human body which needs a higher ph in the water then cannabis so even if you pay for "good" water you would still have to check ph and up or down accordingly im lucky my water is from a artesian well perfect ph no heavies to build up
 
I thank u for the info

once i figure it all out i will post the info on here for other ppl to use for their Strain of Berry Ryder.......

water the 2nd day the meter reads dry on soil and PH balance the water .....should i shoot for 6.0 ph or should i go lower ( soil at 6.5) i got in air bags i sawl they like dry
no nurts untill the 4th 5th week .........is there a flower enhancer they like better then others ( got bud candy)
let it go 10-12 weeks then cut and cure

going with distilled water less chance of salt build up ( on well water here but yuppies (new mc mansion homes) moving in area has unsettled the water table)
 
Once i learn the correct mix of Nurtients for berry ryder to get it nice and sticky /icky with phat thick buds i will post for u all ........that is the kind of person i am .......someone out there give me a hand in getting a good understanding to this Strain so my trail and error period is short and very fruitful

You sure you are not still "a teen"? Saying stupid shit like sticky/icky and phat thick buds is just pathetic if you are a grown ass man.
