So I try to update weekly but that doesn't always work out. So here is the latest grow update! Things are moving along well. Some more small set backs but nothing serious. Well nothing I consider serious this year but last year I would have been flippin out. So in Veg things are getting a little cramped so Where I had the cloner I expanded my solo cup collection. They don't really need to be in the drain tub as I hand water all of the cups.
The cloner is stowed for a little while. I cleaned it and ran bleach mix through it for awhile. When I reach the next time I want to pull a bunch of clones i will pull it back out but I want to play a little with cloning into coco direct for a bit. I have a couple right now that are a few days in and one is doing well. The other isn't but it was a nasty clipping anyway... I need to keep trying it and see if it is that simple...
So the mites made their way into Veg... No big deal it seems the latest FP clone was the most affected... It isnt much just some spotting. I green cleaned veg 4 times today... once in flower but more selective as some of the plants are closer to harvest... another spray in a few days in veg outta keep them at bay for awhile again. I am sure I will be doing this for another month or two until summer is over. Bugs are starting to look for that warm place for winter. What better a place than my ideal environment I created....lol I don't fret too much on this stuff like I use to. I get the initial pissed off what a pain in the ass this is feeling. Then I get over it and get to work on it. Spider mites.... Gnats.... Cyanobacteria... Whatever...
Gnats seem to be gone.. My traps have a good amount on them but i feel like it is all older ones... I have been treating them regularly as a root drench in the pots and see no adverse affect to the plants and have not had a "fly by" i have seen and looks atleast to be much better.. It was never horrible but I could tell when some eggs would pop so hopefully the drenches took care of it.
I may even be over treating... The pump sprayer rocks! I have batches made up of gnat and mite sprays... load it up and a few pumps boom that thing soaks all the plants thoroughly and I spray the walls.. floor... drain tub...
So let's get into some pics...
I did alot of Veg pics...
The solo pic of the FP is the one that has some spotting. It is hard to see as the GC leaves spots too... A couple of the solo cups need to be ditched as they are dead but I always hold out hope..lol Things are doing well. I think I went a little crazy in veg as there isn't even an opening in flower yet and I will have alot ready soon... But that is where the Coco cloning project will come in... Reclone some plants...
So over in flower..
The group shots... I kind of organized it so one side of the room is the younger plants and the other is the more mature ones... Just something I am trying out... That way canopy levels are more even. Now that I have the pots easy to unscrew and move I can play with this as I like and that is just cool!
Sour diesel about half way through... If it runs to term... It already looks yummy! I have yet to get that Bam run on it and this is gonna be the one!
Above the pineapple chunk is gonna be another good one. as always!
Look at the HST i did to it.. gotta keep it from getting too close to the LED's.
Then these are from the WW that is at like week 7? It will be the next chop but still 2-3 weeks... Last one was harvested clear trics if I recall I want to see if this one can grow healthy to dark tric's.
Ahh the Jack Herer. This was the one that went into flower tiny. It didn't like the gas lantern in veg. I want to try another seed as the clones died as they where too immature. If it has issues in veg i was gonna still let it run in veg longer and then flower it and see what happens. I just back burnered it cause I already popped seeds and stuff.. but soon...
NL#5 gifted to me... I am interested to see this one and the next one as they are new strains to me... This one is like a week in flower tops and has been sprayed to shit over and over with cleaner to make sure it is clean.
Then we have BlueBerry Headband. This was an unsexed plant but it is female. Great luck... It is 2?3? weeks into flower? It has entered stretch and I HST'd this a little too... It is looking very pretty!
So that about sums it up. As usual just plugging along. I am using the filtered water now and hopefully that is really going to step things up for me. If the bennies where never really working before and just being killed off then now they should be able to flourish. The plants should be much happier....
As always thank you for coming by... If I don't make it to everyone threads as often it is because the MOTM nomination kinda made me want to help some people more so I am trying to work on helping one new person that needs it as often as I can... I realized though that there is a posse of 420 members who do so as well... I am honored to be part of this community...
