here we go folks, thanx skunk for letting me continue on this epic thread! i just hope i can do it justice
-8/24/11 - out of 10 Tahoe OG seeds, unfortunately only 3 sprouted. they were planted into 16oz cups filled with Roots Organic Coco
-10/1/11- day 39 they were transplanted into 3 gallon pots into a coco mix. ~50% atami b'cuzz coco, 25% Roots Organic Coco and 25% Nutrifield Coco.
i wanted to try out different brands of coco. my local hydro shop only carries Roots Organic, so i tried it out first. Roots Organic has a bunch of stuff in it like perlite, pumice, bay guano, sea kelp and worm castings. id guess like 30%coco to 70%ammendments. doesnt retain much water for my liking. So i went back to my hydro shop and much to my delight they started carrying Atami b-cuzz coco. so i figured id dump the rest of the Roots Organic coco into the bcuzz to make a 70/30 mix. only problem is that i needed more, and i wasnt happy with the lumpiness of bcuzz. So i hear the man skunk is trying out nutrifield coco cause its similar to cannas ( i cant get canna coco for shit! shipping is $50 +, absolutely ridiculous) so i looked it up and found a site where i can get Nutrifield Mega Brick coco at a good price. got it delivered, mixed it up and BAM, i now have this 3brand coco blend unique just for these Tahoes lol
-nutrients - GH micro/bloom, cal mag+, florablend, floralicious +, hygrozyme, great white, koolbloom wet/dry and florakleen
-lighting - they are currently under a 8bulb cfl fixture. (5) 26w 2700k and (3) 26w 6500k bulbs in the fixture. in flower they will be under 600w hps.
ok. all the boring stuff out the way
i let them grow out to about 10-12 inches, long enough so i can top and use that top as a clone. all pics below are 3 days from topping, today, day 50.
books to keep a somewhat even canopy
i had colored tooth picks so i just ran with that to no which clone came from which plant
