420's West Hippie Grows A Candy Kush Mother Plant - Plus Some Squishing Rosin

Well I took pics of Mother Candy Kush
She’s growing like mad now like she’s on steroids.
She sure is a pretty one.
A number of years ago when I was all into hydro and with little knowledge of it I still grew my mother plants in soil and under cfl and fluorescent tube lighting.
With 10 to 12 plants flowering in hydro I would still have 1 or 2 plants in soil for my own personal use.

Hey Nev good to see you checking out mama. Most definitely mama plant will be under the T-8 I’m just pushing her to give me some clones . I’ve screwed up before making a mother in dwc , got behind passing clones . I bet the poor girl had 100 bud sites after all the cuttings.
She won’t be so pretty once I start chopping . I actually just need two clones for myself one for the Goliath and another for hps side by side grow . Thanks again for stopping by .
 
Breaking out the old HPS...nice! Won't be long before we're back to looking at root porn. :thumb:
I think I’m just going to do 5-6 weeks of veg instead of 10 weeks. This time it’s just a comparison grow . We know 4 plants , the hps did 942 grams with just 5 weeks of veg . 30 gallon tote 18 gallons usable. Dumb butt went to lunch without moving the Goliath up now mama’s clawing. Hopefully Dave will save her . Same with the cloner left the light cooking . Sad I do what I learned what not to do. Live and learn again
 
Hey West. :ciao:
Good morning my friend. :high-five:

Morning Bill , so far it’s been great . Need to get these grandkids home and go check my grow I did a bunch of changes yesterday. I have a lot of catching up to do but I’m gonna need to borrow that camera and setup you have .
I’m ready for this grow to take off with the led 660 watts and 1000 watt hps comparison . Have a great day Bill .

Had enough fun yesterday afternoon with actually great grandkids. Made some progress yesterday before babysitting.

The cloner is working with the ViparSpectra P 4000 and the pot is on zero with a lux of 13.1k at 10”s away. Gave the girls a little help holding the leaves up after yesterday’s abuse while I had lunch . They’ll be just fine hadn’t lost a clone yet since I learned what not to do on 420 magazine. Thank you for keeping me inline @InTheShed and making sure I don’t repeat the problem.

No damage from the yesterday’s lunch mistake. I moved the Goliath 3-1/2’ above the canopy. Ordered some roll diamond malar film , not the $20 stuff .
Center fans are 8”s in length x 2-3/8” width.
PPM 690 water temp 75.2 f degrees, no wonder she’s gone hog wild growing. As long as no light gets there we’ll be okay , nothing like a little Z-7 to give me a hand . 5.0 ph saw the curved leaf before I checked the ph and knew it was way off , adjusted to 5.8 . Room temp 77.4 f degrees.
I did get this done yesterday morning, the MH was tested now . It’s all okay !

Cloner girls holding there own leaves up , thank goodness after the abuse they had . A very light mist and there happy . Instead of using thrive alive I’m misting with 1 gram of MC , plus I added 12 mL hydroguard to the six gallons.
Tomorrow I’ll take more clones from mama .
Cloner numbers 162 ppm 5.9 ph 73.2f is just right but I believe the clones bust roots quicker at 78f . Near freezing temps tonight, time to set the heater.
Mama’s numbers 543 ppm was 690 ? Ppm water temp 70.2 this will slow her down. Ph was 5.6 now 5.8 .

 
You're probably so used to it you never even think about it, but I never pH'd the water in my aerocloner. I thought that was just related to nutrient uptake as opposed to getting roots to grow.
Guilty as charged , I still check the ph because of the gram of mc I also mixed in the 6 gallons . Definitely ph for the win on nutrient uptake. Wow 420’s been busy 130 alerts since yesterday morning that makes catching up tough . Still a little hung over bbq and bud light day . Out here fixing to check the girls and cut more clones , back shortly!
 
These girls are shaking it off and center leaves are standing up to the 10% increase in lighting. It increased the lux to 18.7k . I trimmed the leaves that touched the dome while condensing.


The cloner increased the ppm as the water falls , ph still 5.9 . I can see the water level is down at least 1/4 gallon but with everything falling into place I’m not going to touch and I’ll leave the dome off tonight since they appear to be taking off .
Let’s not forget Mama Candy Monday’s I’ve been faithfully changing her water .
Old bucket 518 ppm and yesterday I put 690 it was wrong it was 543 ppm . 690 was Friday’s number. Today I got my new gallon of MSA so I’m giving Mama Candy the rest of the Pro-Tekt 15 mL , 12 mL calmag , 12 grams of MC , 6 mL hydroguard and perfect nutrients root growth Platinum. Roots are nice and white wide open for uptake.
872 ppm total , ph adjusted to 5.8
 
What is up wh nice setup brother I'll pull a chair on this one
Time to blow up
Great to see you , this cloner use to stay busy , center is a little bowed in but doesn’t sit in the water yet . I guess for going on 7 years old in June . As soon as I get two of these girls in 5 gallon DWC from the cloner we’ll count six weeks but some were in between we’ll up pot a dwc up to a 30 gallon tote (18 gallons usable)
2 Girls I’m looking for 4 pounds .
