Bodhi has Johnny D Cambodian/Thai, huh? I look forward to the smoke report!

I’d love to hear more about the Johnny d (jdc) if you or anyone knows anything. I’m more excited now if Thai is in it. I pulled up a bit of info and thought it was an older Hawaiian heirloom held closely by the ones that were lucky enough to get it. Seemed mysterious and I wanted to give it a shot.
I’ve got 5 girls all looking great. Two needed staked and support at week 4.They almost broke the branch the buds were too big for the skinny stems. I’ll drop a report in a few weeks. I have a lemon Thai x Kashmir running also but looks like atleast a 9 weeker. I only had 2 girls there but no problems otherwise. Pictures suck in this room but here is the lemon Thai x Kashmir so far.

I don't know a lot, just that it is supposed to be a cross of Cambodian and Thai, and like you said a Hawaiian heirloom that is kept in close circles. From what I have read/heard, it is one of those special strains that you pull out to impress friends. Not a lot of people have it, so there isn't much info to go off of... which is why it is great that you are testing it! (or a cross with it)

Thanks dude I have a handful of the HP , I have one female banana punch HP in Veg. I really like the structure and assorted candy smell the plant gives off at this stage. Thanks again

I forgot about the Banana Punch, I have 2 of these outside this year, posted a pic of one a week or so ago. These look to finish mid October...structure and smell on mine are also looking and smelling good!

Anybody have Pics of Bandaid Haze 7 in veg??
Or flower i guess.

I tried asking on icmag thread but icmag blocked my IP address so I cant sign up???

What smells are you getting of them?

Harold doesn't spend more money than necessary, i run 16-8.....and tell me how running 16-8 or 24-0 in veg causes smaller buds in flower, genius

Do you ever get some that just want to flower at that light schedule? Ill knock two more hours off mine to save money in electricity if that the case. Believe I tried the 16/8 schedule years ago and had a couple try to flower on me. Like I said “years ago” so I probably wasn’t doing everything right in the first place. Lol

Both have an over ripe funky fruity smell, I've never smelled the banana punch strain, but seems accurate...one of the plants doesn't smell as strong, might be more HP dominant. I'll post more when they're finished

i had a few that would try to auto flower on me in veg but i never switched it to a shorter dark period from 6 off to see if it would help - 1 notable one i remember was a kosher kush from seed - maybe i shouldve tried to see if it would help...another strain from seed did it to me too but i forget what it was - but it rarely ever happens and i just chalk it up to genetics and pop more seeds

only reason i would go 24-0 would be if my plants were behind schedule in veg - and ive done that and it helped a lot - but usually im slightly ahead of schedule so i'd rather them slowdown some - i dont keep moms, i do flower runs and take cuts from the bottoms of my plants that are in my flower room that are about to be flipped - so they're usually coming out of the cloner in week 3 of flower - drying and trimming gets done in my flower room also, so there's time added there too

Went 5 for 5 germ rate on BLF. Only 1 female though. She's already purpling up.

If you really want to save money on electricity in veg you can run the Gas Lantern Routine.

12hrs on/5.5hrs off/1hr on/5.5hrs off.

This breaks up the dark cycle and will prevent the plant from flowering and can save a lot on electricity.

The light cycle times are pretty interesting topic. I guess it all really depends on your application. I'm a indoor - 12/12 from seed kind of grower personally. I can squeeze one more round a year that way by skipping longer veg times.

I understand why some do it. I grow for me and the girlfriend only. I'm not on a schedule for anyone. I don't have to squeeze an extra round in, just grow enough to last until next harvest.

I like to start seeds on 12 hours of light or 13 or 14 hours while increasing the amount of light by 2 minutes everyday, until I reach 16 and a half or so hours of daylight. I have read that the plants respond to increasing daylight hours with rapid vegetative growth.

I have tried the Gas Lantern technique, and the only thing I do not like turning my lights on/off multiple extra times per day seems like that may cause diodes to have shorter life span.

If you want to get them taller, faster, then sure go with above 16 hrs of light. I try to keep my electric bill down.

Thats pretty cool!

6 Guava Wookie topped up potted in veg very homogeneous sporting sturdy stems and very wide leaves. Excellent vigor!

4 Starflight Guava I won from JBC have hit the Viva Towel Sauna. Snow Lotus daddy here.

Are you growing in soil or ? I have tried this before and ended up with puny harvest. Haven't tried any sort of hydro this way though.

Same here, just for me and the wife. Gotta admit that it is sometimes hard keeping up with our smoking habits and staying within plant counts. Plant counts suck but at least I have a plant count, unlike some of the others on here dealing with looking at jail time for growing a plant, bunk!

I run a tote based DWC system in a 4x4 with HPS. I get a really good yield with HPS. I recently setup a new tote based DWC in a 2x4 tent with a Mars TSL2000 LED. It wont have the same yield as under an HPS but it is a fantastic light.

I still use HPS 600w for flowering, and 432w T5 for veg.
Edit: I am looking into other lighting iptions for the future, and I'll be behind tech by then too haha

I'm HPS as well for flower, last year I switched to CFL's for veg because T5 bulbs are so expensive. Recently found some T5 led's on the cheap(name brand though) but haven't installed them in my T5 fixture yet. Hopefully they are compatible with the ballasts in the fixture, if not I will change out the ballasts and see if I made a mistake wasting money on the setup. Lol. The CFL's have been great so far, nice tight node spacing and plenty of light coverage the way I have them spaced out, all while using less watts than the 54 watt HO T5's. Looks like you have the same fixture as me, I will try to change out to the LED'S this weekend and report back to you. The CFL's I have are 6500K 23 watt and I have 12 running right now.
