2nd Attempt At Photos

[mk2SMOKEY]

Hello everyone,
This is going to be my second go at photoperiods.

I have completed this grow and now sharing with you for a quick and hopefuly easy read.


What we are using-
Strain: White iverson,Blue bath,Sticky bath(1 is for a friend),Marshmellow Og(for the same friend) ,
Light: Hlg black bird,
Home: Gorilla 3x3,Gorilla 2x2.5 if need,
Food: Advanced Nutes-Connoisseur Coco Grow A+B and Bloom A+B,Calmag,Voodoo juice,B52,Bud candy,Big bud and some great white,PH down,Tap water,
Medium: Coco
Pots: AC infin 3gall fabric(circle) ,
Base: AC infin self water base(xLarge) ,
Intake: AC infin T4 with filter,
Exhaust: AC infin T6 with filter,
Accessories: Large ball fan,Tower fan,3x tent clip fans,Plant ties/rope,PH pen,Snips/cutters,digi scope,pipettes,multiple buckets and jugs,Coco brick,perlite,Me and a whole lotta love,


Step 1-
I started off by taking a small amount of Coco off the brick and put in oven for 30mins on 200c,after that i put the Coco part in a high sided tray and poured boiling water from kettle into the tray,the Coco sucks up the water and expands,I leave for a few hours then it's done.

Step2-
Grab a little biodegradable pot(the ones i used are rubbish) and fill with the spongey Coco,then place a kithen paper towl on top and done.

Step3-
Get glasses/cups and fill half wayish with tap water,spray each glass once with h202,pop a seed in each glass(same strain i would put all in one glass but i have never grew the same strain together) .
Cover with a kitchen paper towl and leave.

Step4-
Knock up tent and set up intake and exhaust in there with sensor probe,Attach Light to rachet hangers and put in tent,Place fans where i need them.

Step5-
Wait 24H for seeds to have a good soak,I poke them with my finger if they are still floating to make sure they sink(don't know why i do this,i just do) .
I get the filled pots and poke the center with my little finger and push all my nail in,this is where the seeds will lay.
I place a kitchen paper towl on my palm and get the glass with water and seed inside and tip most water out of the glass then when there is a bit of water left and seed i tip it all onto my hand with paper towl on it(this catches the seed for me) ,then i just tip into hole and lightly cover with Coco.
I place these pots in a propogation tank and wait to see signs of life.This tank is left on my kitchen side where it is toastie.

Step6-
Soon as i see life then the whole tank goes into there tent.

Step7-
There is life,4 alive and 1 is hiding from me,I place them into there tent.
Light is about 1meter away and power level2.

Next day and the 4 that is alive has taken all there crash helmets off and ready to party.
White iverson is a no show so far,i might pop another seed just incase.
This will be Day1:

White iverson still a no show,i poped another seed.
Gave them a little blast of tap water.

The new white iverson is above ground,helmet still on though.

Here she is,day2 and looking good for her.

Starting to stretch for the light.
Knocked up light power to 3clicks,not touched height.

I catched MO to late,she was to tall and flopped over herself,rip i think.


Weekly temps and humidity-
Day: 23c and 70%-75% humidity,
Night: 19c and 75% humidity.

Light is around 1meter from the top of the heighest girl and 3clicks on the power level.

Intake and exhaust is set on power level 1 for both,kick in when it gets over 75% humidity and/or 26c.

They haven't recieved any actuall food yet,tomorrow will be the start.

I will upload another 10days worth tomorrow for you all to have a look through if you would like.

Thank you

It's fine,i see you help most folk out so it hard to keep track of who's who especialy if it's somebody new.

I'm getting much better every time i have a go,Keep getting a little bit more weight each time.

And i'm as good as you can be,just needing a few things to sort itself out (out of my hands)then having another round.

I hope all is well on your end,everything all good?

Feed:
No feed today.




Day17:

Well i opened them up to my SB looking very very sad for herself,maybe it was underwatered instead,lets see if she perks up.

Day25:

Whipped out the plant tie and gave them a little Lst,i anchored there bases with some tie and then pulled over there heads in the opposite direction and tied down with plant tie.

Knocked up the power on Light to power level3,not touched height.

Going to put the hydro rings on them in a few days(easier for me to feed them then) .

That's all for now.

Day28:

Ignore the little sprout in the corner,i found a seed in my grinder a decided to see if it would sprout,and it did.
I was just trying something out with it and don't expect it to live.

Added the hydro rings to them all,was abit of a faff to put in.
I ended up hovering the ring with 3 legs on over the plant where i want it to sit the push down just enough to mark 3 holes in the Coco,
I then pull off the 3 legs from the rings and push them in the marked holes in the Coco enough so there's about 2inch sticking above the surface.
I then just push the ring to the 3 legs that are sticking above ground,easier this way i think.

I pulled over the Lst more on SB and BB.

I set intake and exhaust to kick in when Humidity goes over 65% and/or the temp' goes over 27c

Hey Buddy
Great update.
Just curious your nutrient amount/ litre is that what is recommended by the schedule?
And your ph is a touch high.
5.8 all day every day.
I think you should up your feed volume and keep the bags/roots wet.
1 litre in a bag that big won't do it.



Stay safe

Hiya Bill,
Just so you know that i have finished this grow already and sharing the outcome with you all,i think i said at the start but unsure now haa.

Without looking i think my nutes (grow A+B)should be around 2ml per Liter but i had a few marks on them so didn't raise the strength as fast as what the nutes want me to.
They are showing better signs now so i'll just raise slowly as my last run.


At the moment i am having good RunOff so i didn't want to over do it on the volume of feed they get.
Soon ill be raising as i'm copying from my written manual that i do.

I try and go 5.8 and then lean towards 5.9 then 6.0 then back down to 5.9 then 5.8 ,so they get a little range of food.


Please keep watching because there is some wrong turns due in a couple of weeks,it's all learning i see it.

Thanks for having a look,
MK

Hello everyone,hope you are all well and good.


Day30:

It is getting much warm outside now and i think it's time to get the Aircon out.

They look ok i think at this stage.

BB is storming through.

WI is probably the smallest out the group,looks the worst out them all but she will have to put up with it.
She is the main one i want to grow/try aswell.

SB is growing vigorously everyday now.

Turned light to power level4 and raised the height by 15clicks on the rachet hangers(couple inches) .
