Rearranged for next grow

[dphipps1020]

Now that I have my lights upgraded and have some options, I figured I'd update everyone on the grows. Finally got down to enough plants in flower that I could switch everything around. All of these pictures are from the last few days.

I got the tents all rearranged now, so my 4x4s are flowering and my 8x8 has all my plants in veg. I got my clones transplanted into 5 gallon fabric pots of soil. There's a mix in there, some are in soil and some are in coco, some are from seed and some are clones, and I have autos and photos in there. Lots going on this time!

Anyway, got to start training on a lot of them. Some have a decent start to a manifold and some are just kind of doing their own thing. I'm really excited to see how this method works for me. So far I already have a decent amount of nodes started and am still working on more. My goal is to grow it to the edges of the pot and then let them grow up.

The 2 autoflowers that are flowering right now are Pineapple Glue and Space Mango. I also have 2x Space Mango, 2x Critical Orange Punch, and 2x pineapple Glue all autoflowers at just over a week old.

Photoperiod I have Gorilla Blue, Lemon Cookies, GSC, GG#4, Straight Lemonade, Cali Bay Dream, and I think some Blue Dream. I may have missed one.

I'll post more later, enjoy!

Looks nice and happy in there! I can't wait to harvest in a few weeks so I can take everything down, clean, re-arrange, basically go through what you did now. It's such a good feeling.

 

[dphipps1020]

Definitely a good feeling. Still have too many right now, but it will slowly dwindle down.

Hey dphipps1020 did you sneak in and take pics of my plants a couple weeks ago lol? Check out my pic from today. Did a bit too much defol on one maybe...we'll see

​

The red pot is a clone I took from one of these about a month ago. Fimed it at 2 weeks growth, nothing else. The 3 photos are in coco. When I transplanted the clone, I did not have enough coco left over so I put a half pot of coco at the bottom and then the rest was Miracle grow mix just to fill around the plant. That's why it's darker green but it seems to be doing ok. I fed it GH Flora trio last week with the rest and I plan to just let them all flower together. They are all Critical Mass photo from ILGM in Amsterdam. Just over 9 weeks now and need another 8" before switch. The LST I did to grow to the edge added about a week to veg time.

I'd love to see it but the picture didn't show up. Is it the MG for tomatoes? I've heard that works pretty good but stay away from the regular MG. You may run into issues there later on. Do you plan on replacing that or you just going to try and ride it out? I'm also curious what city you're in, Flagstaff area? I'm from Az myself, born and raised in Mesa. Too hot there though so I moved to Colorado.

It looks really good, I like a clean and orderly tent and you must as well very nice work 🌲😎

 

[ADSL]

dphipps1020 I gotta say I'm jealous of your setup my my man. Looks very clean. What a good job bud 😉

 

[CaptainWiese91]

How is the lamps doing ?
still satisfied with the buy? I looked more into that ts3000

 

[dphipps1020]

And here's the current flower tents. Some Cali Bay Dream, GG#4, Blue Dream, and the last of the TK91 I have planted. I have some clones to take and some rearranging to do with my mothers still, pictures will follow. Enjoy the porn!

 

[dphipps1020]

That's better!

 

[dphipps1020]

Thank you!

 

[dphipps1020]

Thank you!

They're doing good so far. I have them on a flowering schedule right now. They put off a little heat but with good control of exhaust and room conditions it's easy to maintain at or under 80F. The plants under them right now have probably 4 weeks left so we'll see how they come out. Just in time to move a few plants back and start flowering a few in the big tent. I really like these TS2000 in the big tent though, huge improvement on heat management, better coverage and only another 140W more than I was running with the 315CMH lights. Time will tell but I have a good feeling about these lights. They're all pretty much the same model just different sizes so I think I should see very similar results.

 

[CaptainWiese91]

Not bad at all to hear.
I’m thinking really much on buying one after summer. Need to be done with this grow first.
I’m looking forward to see the results of the lamps by the Buds then 😎

LOL fat fingers hit post before pics are saved............you talkin to me LOL happens to often for me an the dang phone buttons or stupid taps. Great new spaces, new light man you are going to find you can veg alot longer with the photos if you choose to.

Hey again dphipps1020 , Don't know why my pic did not show? I'll try again. I'm in a small rural community half way between Mayer and Cordes Lakes. In the clone I had to use regular MG to finish filling the pot as I had nothing else on hand at the time. The price of Mother Earth coco plus perlite has gone through the roof! The 3 from seed are steady growing a little slow with very tight space between nodes. I'm not sure if that is a good or bad thing at this point. I'm guessing the spacing will open up during the stretch? I planned to veg for 10 weeks but it may be at least 11. I will not rush, let the plants decide for themselves but I'd like 18" before I switch.

In the pic with the lights, they were 6 days dry so I watered right after. I feed then water with 4 days between now. Watching and letting them say when seems to work best for me.
The clone in the red pot is on a 6" riser and the pot is only half full so at this rate it may stretch higher that the others and I'll have to restrain it to keep a flat canopy. Keep us all posted on your manifold progress. I'm considering quadlining next grow. More symmetrical.

 

[dphipps1020]

Very nice, they look good! Yeah I didn't like the price I paid for my coco perlite mix, same brand. I ended up buying a 5kg Mother Earth coco brick and a big bag of perlite and did it myself to do a few more plants in coco because I wanted to do autos too. I spent about the same price as the premixed stuff and made probably 2-3x what I got in the bag. If you go that route next time, I recommend a 32 gallon trash can or a kiddie pool to mix it in. Wasn't hard, just transferring it to the bags to drain was a little bit of effort in my trash can.

 

[dphipps1020]

Decided I'm going to flower the mother plants. They're now in the 2x4 under the Spider Farmer SF2000. Won't get a lot from them but I need the space and I already have some of each in veg right now. I will be getting the Grand Daddy Purple on Monday so those will be getting started that evening.

Mother plants are: Blue Dream, Lemon Cookies, Gorilla Blue, GG#4, Cali Bay Dream, Straight Lemonade, and Girl Scout Cookies.

I've decided to try to time out my grows again so I can harvest half the 8x8 every 5-6 weeks. Should be fairly easy I think since I'm emptying the 2x2 for seedlings. So they'll spend a month in the 2x2, a month in the 2x4, a month in the 4x4s and then into the flower tent. Should be able to grow some monsters if it works out.

On another note, these are from the last harvest. GG#4 (2 jars) and Cali Bay Dream (1 jar)

Looking good man, if you get too much, I’ll fly over 😂!

 

[dphipps1020]

Thank you. I'm sure you wouldn't be the only one wanting to 😂
