Herijuana and Basic Beer First Grow

Ok I finally have updates and we have blast off. I have 5 ladies under there first day at the beach. We have 1 HERI 4 BASIC BEER. The one heri is the runt but she is strong and still 2 plus feet. She was light deprived in VEG. The other HERI is a monster 3 and 3/4 tall. She had some lower branches a lot actually that stretched way up during veg. There almost canopy high. I would love advice as to how I should get these into fat buds?? This plant is one of my rooted clones and a fucken thorough bred bitch for sure!! 2 of the basic beer are difficult plants for me so I decided to flower them and hope there clones come cool and I can dial in on there needs in the future. The other BASIC BEER is a monster of monsters and bordering 4'. Odd thing though, it had flowering all over the plant in veg ??? It has been on the same schedule as all the others and there have been no errors in lighting schedule.

Clones are my new accomplishment. I have my new MONDI dome. I think my last DIY dome was to compact and caused fungus in spots. Anyhow I am doing much better and have several rooted at the moment. They should be ready for the next few rounds. I will do 6 buckets till funds are achieved to get another 600.

I cut 4 6" intake holes and rigged them for light leaks. Socks yep socks. Dress and wool to be exact. And brown nylons. I have covered the room window with a curtain and backed it with panda plastic and duct tape. I snuck the hot air exhaust into the corner to vent outside and cracked the window. I put several items in it to look used homely. All is kosher for sound and looks from outside.

The veg room has my biggest HERI and another monster BASIC BEER. It also is housing the rooted and re-cubed clones, and yes poor miserable "Timmy" who smells yummy and is now my hobby plant. He may get a leaf trim alter and placed in the house window. He looks nothing of weed if his leafs were trimmed. But I am not decided.

I am lost on my nute readings. I am told by the Technaflora BC recipe for success mixing chart I should have a PPM of 1430 and a EC 2.6 for FULL strength mix. I have done a half strength mix and my PH is 6.6 and my PPM is 1400 ????? What is the deal. How is my half strength getting there full strength readings ??? HELP


Well I hope this feeds the curious and I hope to be fed. Some advice on the PPM topic would be swell. Thanks.

you seem to have enough light to flower, why are you trying to move them outdoors? something new? lack of space? either way, if you have enough clones that you don't mind taking the Co weather gamble then go for it. Some of mine are already in full bloom outside =)

So Im about a lil over week or so into flowering and things are really starting to move with the ladies. I hope they ripen in time.

I have SUCCESSFULLY turned my window air conditioner into a portable unit. this mission was very fuckerd up but I won!!!! My flower room is now at a normal temp and controllable. Only thing is the temp isn't cranked on my home ac so the veg room is at warmer temps. Out of curiosity what room would be the better of the two to have higher temps, FLOWER or VEG ?????

I am going to move 20 clones outdoors and shoot the moon with a possible outdoor crop. What can I loose I need to rid some of my clones took to many. So I have 4 sites or more with water supplies all within 30 feet. Time is my only enemy if frost comes early.

My 55 gallon res has MINIMAL fluctuation with PH and PPM ?? I assume that all is well because my ladies look happy. Also my res and controller bucket have different PPM and PH. Not a lot of difference but its there any feed back ?

Well I will keep ya posted now that the fireworks have begun !!!!! Stay tuned.

hey my dude lookin good there! whats the ppm of your water without nutes? that might be the issue dependin on what kind u use (ro,distilled,tap, etc). did any of your nutes happen to get into each other? my friend made a mistake and spilled some bloom nutes in his humic acid and his ppm was through the roof then he realized what he did lol but im just throwin stuff out there to stimulate thought for ya :)

Well my Mac os x decided to freak the fuck out on me and fucking crash :clap: OMG thank God for pirate bay for the newest copy of Leopard and the back up application Mac has called "Time Machine" mucho bueno !!!!!!! So I installed the os x after 2 days of downloading and it works like a charm thus far. Man thats scary shit.

The ladies are getting huge and I feel even from this point I will yield decent off this grow. I am feeling good and I just got my nutes in so I can drop some PPM levels.

My converted window AC turned portable AC works beautiful. I get my filter next from "foothillfliters".

I have 6 to 7 weeks left and Ill see waht this heri is all about.

Well Im out but will post pics soon. My boy is coming for the week end to do some kitty and booms :)

just wanted you to keep in mind that your outdoor location in your region may want to have some shade intermitantly throughout the day. some of my phenos are taking a beatting lately under diffused sunlight in my greenroom. damn high elevation sunlight. fortunately though, i believe we get almost the full 100,000 lumens up here =D

Here a few photos of the ladies at 2 weeks. A few basic beer and the sexiest heri. Heri has a spicey smell when I burry my nose in it and the monster Basic Beer smells very fruity. I topped the BB before flowering and this thing has like 9+ tops !!! Unless Sannie can tell me, strain is still unknown. Enjoy peps :fire:

And a few of the two mothers I kept other than clones of the flowering plants. These two are not in flower so there pheno etc. are still mystery. The green pot is mummy munster Heri and her sister in white is BB. I gave them both MAJOR trims due to lack of height in the closet any more. There is before and after.

Yeah but every story has a million angle point, its never cut and dry. But doesnt mean my 3,000 dollar grow room cant move to a new home right. Three bedroom apartment with a portable tent will be kosher I think ????????

Hey there,
Watch out for mold with those wooden clothes pin labels. Plastic ones do a good job. I am using the same nutrients as you for the first time. Have you used the BC line before? I am hoping that they will be alright. Keep it up.
