Locrian99s 2nd grow

[starramus]

Yeah you gotta stay ahead of the game or you end up paying full retail. I'll save at least 50% off of my electric bill too buy retiring my HPS.

Well they like the cfl setup. Going to have to do some transplanting I think Wednesday for 3 of them at least.

Looking good Locrian

Locrian99 just subbed. Looking forward to following your grow. I just started a bean yesterday under cfl's. I like them (like many others do) under cfl's for few weeks. Problem im having is that its SOOOO unusually warm here in the west this winter that my heavily insulated grow box is venting unusually hard to keep temps down. Surprising difference between cfl's and my led.

Yea it’s been an odd winter here in the pac nw so far super dry. So much so that I forgot about the way water leaks in through my cellar door and put all my nutes in a card board box in front of the other day, went down last night realized my folly (all the nutes are fine)

Busy afternoon for me and the babies. I noticed some roots coming out of the drain holes in the solo cups so I went ahead and transplanted today. Added two more clamp lights as the splitting wouldn’t work with the larger pots. Played some Tetris to fit everything in that dinky tent I’m working in, and I’m hoping we get better humidity soon cause that humidifier will be losing its spot soon and I think I have 2-3 weeks left before the GG#4 aredone in the flower tent. Should’ve planned a bit better but originally I was only doing 4. Here’s some pics of the new layout it’s crowded.

Yeah 99, I'd hate like hell to have to buy all those different nutrients again, they can get into some cash.

 

[oldjarhead100]

CG i think its a year for extremes it has been unusually cold here in the NE so be happy with the warmth lol

 

[oldjarhead100]

isnt it funny how we make all these plans and that ass Murphy comes along and applies his damn law lol.

 

[Canyon Grower]

Im not complaining. Last year nearly 7 ft of snow had fallen here, settled down to 4ft; but this year we have open ground in many places. Go figure......

 

[Canyon Grower]

Crowded yes, but in a good way. Keep up the good work !

 

[Locrian99]

Gave the girls a foliar spray today, sea green by primordial essence. We’ll see if I notice much of a difference grow shop guy gave me a sample bottle and he swears by it but he probably swears by everything he sells lol. Chopped down my white widow today too, was nice the wife helped me trim. Nothing like a little bonding time on opposite sides of the pool table taking bong hits and trimming bud. Not sure we did the best job but it’ll work. Yield I’m thinking is pretty light (if anyone can guesstimate dry weight I’m curious of course I’ll know in a few days.) pot pic is the fabric pot inside the fabric pot (I’ll never do this again but it did work, huge root clumps all around, but I think it would’ve filled it out better in a single. Anyways probably doing my green crack Friday wanted to give her a little more time and breaking it up will be nice. Plus I need more trimming scissors if the wife is willing to help 😀

 

[oldjarhead100]

Locrian what size pots do you use

 

[D.A.A.S.69]

Congratulations 99, your gonna get a nice little stash, nothin better than smoking your own, just took 6 bong hits of some Dr.Kripplins, incredible bulk, that's been in the jars 5 months, man o man , scorched.

 

[Locrian99]

So that grow was literally a 1 gallon fabric pot inside of a 3 gallon rather than transplanting. It was a dumb piece of advice to follow it worked but I didn’t feel like the roots filled out the pot as it should’ve. This grow one doing solo cup to 2 gal to 5 gal

 

[Locrian99]

Actually the two Aurora Indicas may end up in 3 gallons as I’m going to flower them in my “veg tent”. Going out of town for a couple weeks early June so I’m going to have to have a grow break briefly

 

[oldjarhead100]

I started to use 3 gallons then saw the actual size and went to 5 gallon pot now due to space limitations I'm wondering if 3 g will work after all ,

 

[Locrian99]

I really wonder if leaving them in the 1 gallon then just doing that pot in a pot thing hurt the stretch and yield cause 3 of my 4 really had minimal stretch compared to what I expected at least. Although from the looks that WW will be the smallest yield. Debating on taking the GC tomorrow, didn’t see much for amber but since it’s not a couchlock strain wonder if just all cloudy is better.

 

[Locrian99]

Was really hoping to harvest the green crack tonight, but really wasn’t seeing much for amber except on the sugar leaves. Sunday I am for sure at least taking some select branches off due to the sugar leaves withering up on them and turning brown. Trichromes are all cloudy so should be fine. Watered the 3 baby babies. Thinking Sunday I’ll transplant them and put the led back in there. The bigger ones are working on their 4th node, couple more and it’s time to get to chopping etc to start manifolding. I’m hoping the other three come out of their slump pretty quick or manifolding might not be the best option for them. Here’s a pic of the green crack and the babies (corrected lighting on the one that was wanting more light, and got the temp down a bit was 82 in there and the AI in the back was not a fan apparently).

 

[Locrian99]

Had a few things happen since last post. Just picked up a nice upgrade for the main tent will put in place after harvest. Sun system xxxl reflector got for 50$ guy said it was never used looks good, better than 200....white widow is in a jar now, did have to lay it out on a cookie sheet for a bit after jarring it. Dried pretty fast unfortunately but the buds weren’t huge so. And the babies all are in 2 gallon fabric pots and back under the led. Hoping the recent transplants take off like the others did after transplant, rapid growth once those roots got room to roam.
