Coco/Hempy Perpetual Grow

Hiya folks, I'm Feroce. I've been hanging around here for a couple of years posting on this and that, but my one attempt at a grow journal failed miserably, due my laziness primarily. I maintain a thread over at Opengrow, but have always avoided maintaining more than one thread...but now I have no excuse, as I retired from making airplanes yesterday and now have all the time in the world:lol:

I grow only for stash and getting my friends really really high, so I keep my operation on the small size. I have a 10 square foot area with a T5 light for seedlings and clones, a somewhat larger area for keeping mothers under a 400w MH in an open-wing reflector, with enough space to keep up to six mothers, and a 54" x 54" flowering tent with a Growzilla dual-bulb hood. I'm running a Digilux 600w MH and a 400w Lumatek HPS currently, as I feel that this gives me better results than running straight HPS.

I grow in hempy buckets using coco fiber as the medium. I like using coco because it works very well indeed once you learn it's idiosyncrasies, it's reusable, and it's easily disposed of in my outdoor garden when I'm done with it. I like using hempy buckets because I can water them and forget them for a few days if necessary, ideal for someone as lazy as I am.

I use a very simple nute regime, CNS17 Grow (3-1-2) until halfway into flowering, then flip to Ripe (1-5-4) with a big initial dose, then gradually taper off to a clear water flush at the finish. The only other additive I use is Protekt during veg.

Currently running some gear from Sannies Shop, and indeed, most of my genetics are from Sannies...I have four Anesthesia and three Sugar Punch clones in flower right now, with two of the Anesthesia clones @ eight weeks, two of the Sugar Punch @ six weeks, and the rest @ four weeks. I have a single Selene plant, unsexed as yet, and am popping more beans...one each Afghan x NYCD, ChemD x Blueberry, and The Mask should be coming up soon, and I just put five HLT beans into the paper towels today...HLT is a result of some pollen-chucking, it's Herijuana x Lemon Thai. The keeper search goes on;-)

Feel free to chip in, ask questions, or blow raspberries if you want, I'm pretty hard to offend:eyesmoke:

Let's get some pics up...first pic is of the Anesthesia and Sugar Punch moms, next two are Sugar Punch clones @ six weeks, and the final one is Anesthesia @ eight weeks and almost ready.

Time for a quick update and a few more pics...

I now have five Heri x Lemon Thai and two Cherry Kandahar babies up and growing, along with the Selene plant, which is being shy about showing pre-flowers. I'm hoping to get them all sexed and cloned before the end of April, which is when my current grow ought to finish up, if all goes to plan...yeah right, like when has that ever happened:roll:

BTW, I know nothing about the Cherry Kandahar strain, please chip in if you have any info about it.

My freebie beans did not survive, I kept them too wet and rotted them, bugger! Ah well, have more plants going now than I have room for anyway.

Enough blather, time for some pics. First one is of the babies, second is the Selene plant, the rest are a mix of Anesthesia and Sugar Punch in various stages of flowering. Enjoy!
