Bluter's Happy Home For Hilarious Hempsters

[013]

hiya felipe. parents are ok. been there helping out a bit. and been working on a project car. so tied up i'm a over a month back on getting a grow going.

are you sure it's russets / hemp mites ? is it an indoor or outdoor grow ? actually doesn't matter. just confirm and burn. with russets you need to be proactive. kill before you see type thing. sulfur and sulfur burners. attack from the air and through the soil.

i haven't dealt with them for a while now. jah bless.

they are getting super serious. i live north and now avoid summer grows as a result. not so long ago we never thought it would be an issue we saw here at all. they are now becoming a yr round thing. still harder to get them in winter here

Hey Bluter

its 013 not Felipe….. but you can call me anything - just call me at dinner!

Glad your folks are doing well. Seems like you mentioned an E30 a while back… is that your project car?

not sure on the russets, its been a while but I inquired & you mentioned leaf symptoms kinda resembled russets. I scoped with a 1000X but didn’t see anything definitive. Indoors but I had 2 smart pots 30 gallons each of first run LOS…. didn’t want to dump 60 gallons of new soil and it has never been chem treated other than Neem meal in soil mix. I ran No Pest Strip for 12 days and added a crap ton of nematodes & then more beneficial insects and now have an Amnesia Haze in one & HH cbd plant in other bag. Hoping to flip them in 2 weeks and see how it goes.

If it turns out to be russets or these chicks really hit the wall then I have no probs dumping the soil. I’ve got another 120 gallons on standby but didn’t want to dump 60 gallons based on 1 bad plant… but tIme will tell….

about 20 - 24g dried and ground bud to 500ml glycerine.
you can change the recipe to suit. i do a double cook on that amount and it winds up pretty useful. most folk would run a little more glycerin.

How do you think fresh harvest would work with the VG? I know some have had issues making FHO with the oils, but wondering if the sugary base might not have the same issues with the moisture in the fresh buds. What do you think?

you don't want moisture in your bud if using the instant pot method. it reacts bad with the heat and pressure.

Ok. Thanks for that. Wrong answer, but I'll probably get the same one if I ask again.

Nothing going since harvest?

auto hempy run starting soon.

 

[bluter]

my mega crop turned to a rock while i stopped growing. so i dug it out of the jar i was storing it in with a big screw driver and pulverized it with a hunk of heavy galvanized pipe.

nutes ... check ..

auto hempy run starting soon.

Alright! Finally. We've been (impatiently) waiting...

Alright! Finally. We've been (impatiently) waiting...

i got the veg room all tore apart today for cleaning and to get it ready. if it would stop snowing for a while i could quit shoveling and finish it.

 

[bluter]

there was never gonna be time when stuff was ready so i just dropped the beans no matter

going with 5. they are @Weed Seeds Express afghan haze / blueberry auto. well maybe. i got a 5 seeds and a single freebie in the pack. which was cool but i think it was something else. unless i get a real odd ball i'll call them all the same ah/bl .. the odd ball will be... oddball

originally the idea was to get some plugs and just transplant to hempy. of course i blew it and forgot to order, and nothing was available here. so paper towel and plate method it is.

i use plates that have a ridge on the bottom
just spray the towel down with some ro and calmag and stack another plate on it. then in to home boy amplifier germination station ...

this is the first auto run i've done here. first in hempy too. i ran a few alongside photos in a sunshine / hp type mix before i was here, and i was pretty awful. so i hope i do a tad better.

a little under 12 hrs later things decided to start cracking.

that was the furthest. 3 of the 5 were working on it. i filled up some hempy cups and precharged them with ph'd ro and calmag. managed to knock my ph down bottle over and dump it all over the floor ... sigh. had enough to get the job done though. one hurdle to clear. get some tomorrow.

by the time i got back from work tonight everything was full on.

they got transferred to the hempy cups right away. total of 20hrs after hitting the towel.

got them under the 4 pot 200w cob at 25%. fired the rig up and my main light timer failed.
we're batting a grand here. try to get on that as well tomorrow. so right now they are under 24/0 til they emerge i guess ..


have a plan for the cages in background. gotta get my buckets sorted too. wanna run my 5L buckets with those cages in a ubt style or similar. could be cool if i don't blow it up.

will have to be quick on the topping / training / up pot. i'm so used to running photos i don't like working on somebody else's schedule. but i need a couple quick runs. i hope to squeeze a second auto run right on top of this one too

errrrr ... helllooo sponsors .. i'm over here lol.
i could use a hand with some seeds. sativa leaners mostly. should run cbd sometime as well.

a little sideways to start as usual but we're off and that's all that matters. i'll pick it up as we go. feels great to be at it again. i'm always depressed if i'm not growing in winter.

That's a pleasing start germinating the WSE seeds Bluter. Looking good!

Great to see you starting another. I've just started my first attempt at a couple of hempy plants alongside a soil grow. What plugs would you normally use? I ended up putting the seeds straight into the perlite. One came up no issues and the other opened up fully but just had a tiny taproot and it didn't grow.
