Club 600

I found the JTR/DB/and? plants to be very N-hungry in late flower.
I ended up feeding with full strength of Botanicare Pureblend Pro Bloom 1-4-5 and a full dose of Jack's Classic All Purpose 20-20-20 to prevent yellowing about midway into flowering.
But they ate it up with no burn or lock out.
Have been getting water only for a week and they are showing it.

Couple questions for you guys. Do you think my DOG's look ready to cut? And are you guys checking trichs when determining when to chop them pups?

I was wondering how they were coming along and so I cut a few small sugar leaves from 3 different plants. One plant showed one or two amber trichs. The other two showed something like 15-20% Amber trichs. Usually I like to chop at first sight of Amber as I'm more of a fan of an up type high than super couch lock. However these dogs have been in 12/12 for 7 weeks tomorrow. I'm thinking that becuase I left the Bushmaster in for like 3-4 days they are maturing faster. I'm thinking I might chop one tomorrow for myself, then leave the rest for another few days- a week... as most folks like a heavy heavy stone.

What percentages are you guys chopping at? or you just look at the plant to tell you when it's ready?

Thanks

Hey what's up Jig, I rarely check my trichs with my microscope anymore. When the plant looks done i cut it. I pretty much go by what the buds look like. I try not to cut it if it still has white hairs.

I am with Buster on this one, when plants looking ready it gets chopped (not really checking trichs). No or little new growth required, just calyx swelling preffered, lol.

Here is a couple pics of my BlueWidow/AK47. I grew a dinafem bluewidow a few months back and it got pollinated by an AK47 and i got around 35 seeds. I am growing 8 of them right now and these are looking like a 7-8 week strain. They are finishing really fast. And they are pretty frosty. 2 more days and it will be 4 years since i popped my first seeds. I cant believe i have been growing this long. I really love it. I grow 12/12 from seed and hang the 600 vertically in the middle with my plants placed around the bulb. My room is 48inX54inX8ft high. I have grown 16 plants at one time in my room but i cut back on the total number for this round because i didn't know just how big this strain would get. I will run 12 next time because i have the room for them. I also grow hempy bucket style in 2litre bottles and it works great when growing 12/12 from seed.

Does any one know if my cross is out there and if so what name is it going by? My cross is a Dinafem BlueWidow crossed with a really old school AK47. I am trying to figure out a name for it or if this cross is already out there and if so what is the name of it.

Chopped this C4/Casey tonight.
All buds and kola are solid as rocks and sticky, icky.
Will have better shots tomorrow after trimming off fan leavers so I can get some closeups, but she is frosty.

26 days from sowing seed to turning lights to 12/12.
79 days of 12/12.

Every seed is an individual (see life of Brian sketch previously posted, lol) so if you cross your own pheno of A with your own pheno of B, in all liklihood it will be totally different from someone elses who used seeds from the same parents and crossed an A with a B. So worry no further, if you get a pheno that you think represents a line that you consider is worth keeping, or represents a good ix of both strains, or gives you that trait you like, then it's yours to call it what you want. Just remember, don't get all antsy if someone else uses your strain to make something else, it's only loaned to you from the ganja gods to play with

Peace, DST

BLUE 47 BLUE 47 set,.. hut! and nice outlooks on the breeding. wasent really sure what the etiquette was. but we deffinately cant own genetics.
all we can do is give credit to the ppl who selectively bred the genes before us.

So i chopped down Critical + and Red Cherry Berry (WHICH I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED IN) Reason being

Red Cherry Berry never developed a smell at all. After i chopped her she smelled like straight hay from start to finish.................. Im hoping the high is good because so far she doesnt seem to be a good pick( But she was 12/12 from seed so i dont know)
Critical + Is very little (Party cup) but she has nice solid nugs cant wait to taste her she has a fruity smell to her. I know these 2 arent gonna yield the best because of the 12/12 from seed but i figure they are worth trying. Pics coming in a little ive had a hell of a buzy week With Black friday i only ended up getting 1 day off But tonights my tuesday

I'll be chopping a few down today but not sure how far I'll get yet since I'll be entertaining my daughter later on. I think I'll start right after breakfast and see where I end up, starting with two of the Devastator Kush plants. I'm hoping to get those two, a Sour Alien and a Platinum Bubba done today and will work on the rest next week after work.

I've got a good mix of males/females out of the 11 seedlings I stuck in the flower tent recently and a couple of them I'm still not 100% on the sex. I want to get my other plants out of the tent soon before the little boys start blowing their loads from all the sexy ladies in my tent
I have a male Cheese that is a stud and the Herijuana males will be hard to choose from because they all look almost identical. There was one Cheese seed that didn't even look like MJ for a while, took on two main stalks (without any topping) and now has stretched like crazy so I don't think I'll be keeping it but will post a pic of it to share.

I like running strains 12/12 from seed to test them out. I look at it like this, if I do the same with every strain I will have a good idea of how they all compare. If I like the first few nugs I get I will grow it again and if not I'll dump it.

Just noticed that my 2 motivation cuts have started to flower on 16-8 so going to have to change the light schedule to 18-6 to put them back to veg for another couple of weeks

bagged myself a couple of cool tubes today so I can finally zip my tents up without it hitting 100.

Bit of a scary day, Landlord didnt show up and said he wont (still bricking it mind)
Our grow shop is in an industrial estate and we drove there in a brand new car and parked it a little down the road to avoid cameras over the road (didnt want them getting our reg)
Anyway, as we were walking back to the car with soil and lights etc... A police car had been spying on the store and he rolled up next to us in on the way back to the car.
He started to ask questions

"whats in the bags guys?"
"Just soil and crap..."
"for your hydroponics yeah"
"Yeah why?"
"Go on, tell me its for tomatoes right"
" Right"

Anyway he just drove off mid sentance and we loaded up the car and set off.
He was sat in his car waiting as we left the estate and he followed us. We took a sharp corner and then ditched him in a small estate.

Luckily it was my fathers car and they wont find my address from the reg. Luckily my father grows but only has a few clones going at the moment so he just killed them off and is taking a brake to see what happens.

Pissed me off that they can intimidate you like that.

Anyway I have another question (im so close to getting my set up right. All i need to do know is figure out how to connect all the ducting.
I have fans and filters at 4 inch and I have the cootube at 6 inch. How do I go about connecting the 6 inch ducting to 4 inch ducting? Ill probably just end up bodging it with tape like I do everything else

Sorry for the long post and Ill make sure I reward you all with pineapple express porn soon.

Time for a joint and some black ops to de-stress.

P.s I REALLY REALLY REALLY want to make those peanut butter bombs. saves me munching peanut butter out the jar with a spoon when im baked. it will give my lungs a brake too.

Sucks about the pigs, indecline. There is only one thing we can do-- push back!

that sux indecline, bloody waste of tax payers money, but hey, if the police can get results then better fight the things they can than the serious crime, duh!

indecline

I agree, what the cops did isn't right. You brought attention to yourself by parking away from the store. Drive up to the front door and act as if you own the place and the cops won't screw with you. Acting evasive draws unwanted attention.

If it's just the pre flowers and you have been running the cuts for a while then that also happens to me. The exo's and livers esp tend to show in veg as well.

There's more than just pre flowers, there's the start of buds, i'm not sure what light cycle they were on before i got them but as soon as i got them i potted them up and threw them in with the rest on 16-8 if they were on 20-4 or 24-0 the sudden drop in light might of triggered flowering they're all under the 600 now on 18-6 so they should revert back to veg in about a week or 2
