2L Hempy Coco Coir

[Twelve12]

Thanks kola bear. Starting from seed they can be under bloom for the first two weeks and will not flower. Time it to have them in there during the last two weeks of your current flowering plants will help you save two weeks of vegging the seedlings. Start them off in a small party cup they don't take up much space. Once you harvested the flowering plants transplant the seedling into bigger container and let them veg out for 1.5 months (with training) and you're set for bloom. I usually do two trimmings on the lowers, first before flowering, second after 2 weeks into flower. Some branches don't make it to the top during that two weeks in bloom they get eliminated, providing more for the tops.

Fuzzy Duck, right now I have enough plants to start a new experiment. There will be two, one using coco coir with OC+ only, and another would be using a pond-zyme which acts like hygrozyme without breaking the bank to see how well it works on plants. Other than that the perpetual still going strong.

Thanks missbud! Looking forward to your harvest soon!

Thank you, Jon Smith.

Those are huge when compared to that lighter. Very nice nugs!

Harvest: Firestorm

Just harvested the Firestorm F1 (Pineapple Express x Grapefruit Diesel), first cross from the breeding program. This one is a keeper from the F1 generation, the father is gone, the mother still with us and has her own clone production going. The bud has a hint of purple colors on them though hard to see from the pics. That means F2 will have some purple gems. Maybe I'll get over the purple some day, for now I have not experience a full blown purp grow, yet.

Loves the 2L coco coir hempy setup. Got the 1000w (400w MH + 600w HPS) going in the 4x4 tent. I also have some clones going under the 1000w HPS in the new flowering room so will compare the two.

Can't wait to smoke her, estimate to yield 15-20g dry.

Love that firestorm! It looks like it has some kush genes some were in there judging by the swirling caylix. But thats just an ignorant statement on my part. never the less its a beautiful cross that I would love to grow and vape/smoke. sort of looks like some of subcools stuff!

 

[Berry Bongtrip]

Thanks Twelve for those pointers, i will definately do that, i am itching to get some seeds going since i dont and wont have a perpetual grow going, however, that advice cuts back 2 weeks of wasted time. Thanks for pointers on when to trim lower branches, i am lucky right now that the ones i did leave will have nugs that could fill a bowl so thats cool with me. Firestorm looks mean, u have an unreal system going on, really cool to see, good job.

 

[Twelve12]

Thanks, gittergreen! You're right it has some nice buds development. I'm far from subcool's quality that's one amazing breeder.

Thanks, kola bear. Good luck with your new seeds, it never gets old popping them.

Bloom Room #2 Update

This is the current grow for the new room, it has filled up nice, with some older plants already budding. The oldest is around 20 days. I'm loving the 1000w HPS bulb it speeds things up faster.

Anyway, check out some shots. I guess this is what a perpetual system looks like.

I was curious if God even exist until after I look at the cannabis plant.

Maybe I'm doing too much or maybe I'm not doing anything at all.

I'm setting up a time lapse somewhere in the room. I know it's growing I want to see it speed up.

Looking sweet in there with the 1k brother I've been trying to get my cloning technique down lately any tips on aerocloning?

 

[1970s Grower]

THings look great... The Firestorm is one heck of a trophy for you. I hope it smokes as good as it looks. I look forward to the smoke report on your first bred strain.

How high is that light from the plants? It looks real close for 1000 watts. What are you doing to control heat?

Yoo They some chronic buds Twelve12, Well done on creating Firestorm!!

 

[Twelve12]

Thanks, HighFlyin5. I'm loving the 1K right now for Winter grow. During the summer I have to downgrade to 600w or 2x 600w will have to see with a/c in place.

For aerocloning is very simple. Once you got the aero unit either (built or bought) all you have to do is take cuttings from your mother plant, clip the leaves in 1/2, then plug into the aero and wait for 2 weeks should root less then that. No need pH the water, no hormone, or nutrients just keep it simple. The pump can be on 24/0 or on/off every 15mins it's up to you. Clean out the reservoir once every two weeks to keep it clean. Let me know how it goes!

Thanks, 1970s Grower! It stinks so bad which is a good thing. The light is about 1ft from the canopy. Right now I can have it that close because it's Winter time, for Summer I will have to downgrade to 600w or add a/c unit in the room. The exhaust is right above the reflector sucking up 85% of the heat, and got a fan bringing cool air to the plants.

Thanks JBC420 & GodSpeed!

Dry nugs

These are dried. Currently in the curing phase. All very dense. Enjoy some snap shots.

 

[HerbFarma]

Wow those are some beautiful nugz!! Thumbs up bro. What advice can you give on a sure fire germination technique? I been trying to pop a bunch a seeds but to no avail. But the temps have been pretty low also.

 

[Twelve12]

Thanks, HerbFarma. I'm currently using the paper towel method for germination. Wet the paper and squeeze out access water so it is moist not too wet. Put seeds in the middle and fold the paper in half. Press the paper together firmly and place it in a plastic bag or container and wait. You should see tap root within 1-3 days. Temperature can be cold just don't go lower than 50F you'll be fine, or hotter than 95F.

nice frosty buds 12

dammit man! those are wonderous! the firestorm is a 200lb pit bull off the chain chasing down a juicy sausage kabob with a sam addams on the side!!
