[jamesleemc]

[millertm]

Man, that EM looks nice. 81 days, you are now in photo time frame. JH looks close but CR still looks young, what is breeding time for CR? Man you two are doing well.

Cheers

Yeah, both the Jack Herer auto and the Crown Royale photoperiod are 9 week flowerers. Jack of course switched to bloom on her own at about 3 weeks, so she'll be 12 weeks minimum to finish. We vegged the Crown Royale for 7 weeks, so she'll go 16 weeks at a minimum. That's really the reason we decided to do another round or short flower time autos as part of this grow, so it wouldn't be just the Crown Royale for the last 4 or 5 weeks.

Really looking forward to seeing what CR does with her flowering. She's still using far less water than any of our plants ever have at all stages.

Oh. It is a photo. 7 week veg, ha trying for a two pound plant. Keep it up, I am enjoying the show. I'm pulling the Cinex now (2100 local) but I'll keep one sour going to see what happens after another few weeks. It's at day 57 of flower with 2 week veg from clone.

Cheers

I was just thinking about how long to veg the photos. I'd figured at least two months. I see I'm close.

You guys blow me away every time I stop. Inspirational work guys. arteekay, you put together one of the tightest updates going.

I'm listing my seeds. Gotta get back to it. Thanks for the superb distraction.

Here is two week veg from twig and 57 day flower. Two months would not suit my small tent.

Our first photo in our first scrog, we really didn't know what to expect. I'm guessing we won't veg quite so long next time, but that could very well change once this one gets closer to finishing.

Two month veg in your garden is going to produce some monstrous plants, can't wait to see what you do with them. I'm still very much in auto mode, so Jaybiz's and your photos are wildly interesting to me.

I have to say that while this thread was nearly 50 pages long it was quite worth taking the time to read it.

rtk and JayBizz are wizards! I have learned a lot from following along; I spent a lot of time creeping but I will certainly subscribe going forward. I truly appreciate the craftsmanship you put into growing. Your bud is what my bud wants to be when it grows up.

Hear ya on the trimmin' vs. picture takin'. I can tell Jaybiz gets a bit annoyed with me and my camera.

It's a 4.6 g airpot, we have two 1.5 g ones as well but we'll never use them for pot again. Dry out way too fast.




We vegged this girl a bit long for her scrog, but otherwise she's been an easy grow. Three or four more weeks still to go.




If the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you well stocked with weed. With weed you can buy a handyman with his own rolls of the Handyman's secret weapon.

It has been a pretty stable run so far, knock on wood. Getting more brave though with every cycle.




Between Red Green and Trailer Park Boys, it's a wonder Canada gets any respect at all.




Thanks bud.

Bahaha I love Trailer Park Boys! I am about nine seasons deep on Netflix and just started watching a few weeks back...whoops.

Absolutely love the frame for scrog gonna have to copy that for my next grow which is gonna be crown royal. How big is her frame. I want to do a CR and northern lights at the same time figuring I can switch the lighting after the northern lights is done. I am using a 4x4 grow tent and wondering if that space is big enough for both

The Spider x4 can only really flower a 2x2 space (200w at 50wpf) so the scrog frame is 2 feet square. Pretty sure Jaybiz wants to build three more and buy more lights.

You can definitely fit two plants in a 4x4, we had six in our first grow. That was too full for my liking, but three is working great for me.

Lovely shots, busy time for you two, when are you going to hire and crew? Just kidding, I too enjoy spending my time with the ladies.

Cheers

March 22 Update. JH and CR are 83 days old. R2 is 19, D2 is 8, and LS is 4 days old. CR is 33 days since her flip to 12/12.

CR is 11-15 inches below the Spider x4, Temp is 79 and RH is 51% at the canopy, 77 and 53% at the top.

Temp for JH, LS, and R2/D2 peaked at 87 today with RH at 40% during lights on. They are on an 18/6 schedule and JH is 12-14 inches below her Mars II 900. R2 is off to the side and is about 25 inches from the light. D2 and LS are 29 inches away.

• LS got 360 ml of bubbled tap water at 5.7 PH
• D2 got 420 ml of the same water
• R2 got 780ml with 2.5 ml each of DNF Gro A+B and .6ml of GO CaMg+ at 257ppm and 5.7 PH
• JH was soaked using 5 L with 6 ml each of DNF Bloom A+B only at 469ppm and 5.7 PH

Busy night, didn't get home until 10 and just about everyone needed something, including the veggies.

We decided to try starting weak nutes at three weeks on our second CKS Revolver, and I tucked her split tops under the fan leaves exposing the two side branches on each side. Hopefully that'll hold her for a day or two so I don''t have to tie her up yet.

Our second Dark Devil (D2) got a bit droopy, kinda thought I should have topped her up yesterday. I feel she's too young to expose to a drought.

Our Jack set a new record for single day weight loss at 9.2 lbs. We decided to water her again so she doesn't bottom out tomorrow. We'd planned to end her this weekend, but if she's gonna drink that much for another couple days we may reassess that decision.

CR (27 lbs, down from 31.6 yesterday) Finally using a decent amount of water in a day:

Sweet..... Red Poison Auto. Looking forward to watching you work your magic with that.

You made me get up off the floor (I work sitting cross-legged on the floor in front of the mirrors) and go look at my own Jack. I sure hope mine looks as good as yours does when she's ready to harvest. You got me excited arteekay.

 

[millertm]

I've had some local JH, it did not look as good as yours but had a great day high, you can get stuff done, it just takes a bit longer. I'm sure your have some good stories coming out of that strain.

Wow a perpetual in every sense of the word. You guys make a great team and have it strapped down! CR scrog looking great, JH pumping trichs, new plants and...wait just a damn second the mailman delivered my seeds to you by accident. Send me on down to Shiggy and we can forget this ever happened.

Thanks Squeak, we do put a lot if TLC into these girls and they like to reward is for it. Our current plan is to harvest the JH this weekend but something we may push back based on the amount of water she's still going through etc. It's pretty typical for us (and I mean rtk lol) to change our minds daily.
