Controlled Environment Agriculture by Shrubs

Damn bro, they are beautiful! Know your camera is broke, but can you get a macro shot of the 'best' bud, wanna see those crystals shine. 2 weeks to chop right? I'm hoping mine will be ready by the first but not a orange hair in sight yet.

Feeding the ladies tonight

15 Gallons water
100 mL Master A
100 mL Master B
30 mL Cal/Mag Plus
6 Tsp Big Up Powder
75 mL Humbolt Humic
75 mL Flavorful Fulvic
150 mL Hygrozyme
225 mL Humboldt Honey
200 mL Budswel Bat Guano

1300ppm, EC 1.82, pH 5.8, Temp 62F

I'm positive that the purps will be or are intersexual. I have found only
one banana after thorough inspection. My last purp plant went intersexual
but the quality of the finished product is without a doubt worth any type
of seedage, which didn't even occur. Even with several banana sites in my last grow there was not a seed to be found. The sour diesel strain is also a known intersexual plant, although ResDawg did do extensive work to
cut that back.

I have read on this, and have somewhat of a leaning towards a passage of an article by DJ Short, in which he claims (and Soma supports this) that seeded herb produces different and more unique cannabinoids than a sinsimilla counterpart.

Feeding tonight Week 7 day 2, or Day 44 Flowering.

15 gallons water
75 mL Master A
75 mL Master B
100 mL Hygrozyme
225 mL Humboldt Honey
10 mL Ginormous
10 mL PK 13/14
150 mL Budswel Bat Guano
50 mL Humbolt Humic Acid
50 mL Flavorful Fulvic Acid

PPM 900, EC 1.26, pH 5.8, Temp 63F

Pics later.

I'm keeping my EC/ppms low because of this potassium toxicity I'm experieincing.
I am unable to switch directly to the coco A+B right now, because I simply do not
have the money to do so, but after this harvest I will be converting. Until then
I gotta keep it a little mild. My last feeding ran off at 1900ppm, which was higher
than expected.

These are as good of pictures I can take with my iPhone. The pics towards the end
are with the HID's off.

They are ridiculous, they have the largest cola's I've grown. The chop chop is
scheduled for 4/26, but I'm gonna start flushing tomorrow, so depending on when
the PPM's are at zero and what the trichomes look like it could be sooner than planned.
Last grow I was off by 2 days from my original call at the beginning, and this time
around it looks like it will be similar. Between 52-56 days, so between 4/22-4/26 I'll be chopping.

Thanks man, reallly sugar coated, I think it's all this UV I have in here, about 160
watts of 6,500K - 10,000K lighting which really spits out the UV, not to mention
I run 2 Metal Halides as my main lights which also emit trace amounts of UV.

Week 7 Day 5, or Day 47 Flowering

Flushed tonight
15 Gallons Filtered Water

PPM 70, EC .09, pH 5.9, Temp 65F


Runoff was 1300 ppm

oh man looks like they are getting close keep up the good work

Thanks GG.


Just grabbed the Coco A+B, and can't wait to use it, I'm gonna start it on my vegetation tonight.

1/4 Gallon water

1 mL Coco A
1 mL Coco B
4 mL Rhizotonic
2 mL Hygrozyme

On another note, I just planted some outdoor veggies
to be grown this early season.

I grabbed 2x 25 Gallon Smart pots. With Roots Organic 707

In one smart pot, I have 4 Broccoli plants and 1 Radichio.


In the other smart pot I have 12 Romain Lettuce plants,
3 Space Spinnach, and 4 Onions.


These 25 Gallons are freakin huge!

nice garden shrubs, i have a Q: i also have some Broccoli plants. it said something

Although it is from the same family as the cabbage, broccoli is grown for its
edible, immature flower heads.

Broccoli love having their heads cut off... they will grow more heads for you —
little bitty tasty ones.

When the central main heads are still compact and darkish, which is usually up
to 25cm (10") wide... off with their heads about 12-20cm (5-8") down the stem
and just above where some main leaves join the stem.

You really only have less than a week of optimum opportunity to do this first
broccoli harvest. If you leave slicing off the heads too late, that is when the
florets loosen and there are signs of yellow flowers forming, they will be coarser
with a strong, but not such a nice flavour to eat. An exception is the sprouting
broccoli whereby the florets are looser and sometimes have a few yellow flowers
just beginning to open.

Always cut the heads and florets off the stem with a sharp knife and on an angle
so rainwater cannot collect and rot the remaining stem.

Leave the stems with the remaining leaves on, continue to water and new
florets will sprout out from the leaf axils. Keep cutting these sweet delicacies off
to eat and the plants will keep producing, often up to 2 more months.

Pick the tender leaves and also the flowers when they come, these are all edible
and full of goodness.

Hope that helps I love broccoli!

Oh my god, these Diesels are the most ridiculous nugs. They are
fucking violent on the senses. Eye candy, they sting the nostrils, and
licking my fingers after touching them causes my tounge to tingle a lot.
