Brix, Buds & Blades: Knifemaker420's Auto Perpetual Garden

[Knifemaker420]

Update
Dark Devil auto day 82. Still looking quite sad :-( hard to tell if it's getting any better or worse since there's so many crispy leaves. Dont think I want to trim them all off as that would be quite a severe pruning, and this late in her life might hurt more than help.
Watered this evening with 20ml GI in 1.5G ro water and 20 drops tea.

M.O.B auto day 55
I did trim off all the affected leaves from this one on Wednesday last week and they have been slowly coming back. Not as bad yet but looking kinda blotchy.
Also gave MOB a 1.5gal drink with the same 20ml GI and 20 drops tea as dda got

Teenage wedding auto day 14
Doing really good so far. Noticed some roots starting to emerge through the sides of the seedling pot so got her situated in her 5gal pot. Dusted the outside of the sedling pot as well as the inside of the hole and gave her a light drink of ro water. Doesn't seem to have skipped a beat.
Today the pot is already feeling light (wasnt soaking wet to begin with) so I gave her another light drink of ro water about a litre poured around the outside of the seedling pot in the soil.

Thanks for looking
Have a knife day

That first plant has been a real concern and it should have turned the corner by now.Her roots just are not happy.
U are correct ...Doc gives enough supplies to get thru one grow with 6, 7 gal. pots.
When and if problems arise , and more product has to be used , u may run out.
I would advise asking Doc for help with that and why that girl hasnt turned the corner.
Please pm him soon and ask him wats up, and that u have been following directions and she still looks crispy....also tell him of your short supply issue ok.

The DDA is looking pretty sad BUT very nice bud structure and I am sure you will get lots of great buds from it. I hope Doc can help but it's probably a little late and I bet the produce will be awesome anyways!

It looks nice but if you look closely its all hairs and sugar leafs I dont see any calyx's and barely any frost to speak of. My fi gers don't even get sticky when I touch them.

For every 2 hairs, there is a calyx. You just can't see'em because they didn't swell up yet. Some strains, they swell early on and some wait till the final week.

Yup...wat Sky said Knife.

Dark Devil auto day 90
In the final push to the finish line with DDA
Still trying to get her and MOB back on track but she has kept putting on the bud even looking as fried and crispy as she does.
Still loads of white hairs popping out so not close to ready yet.

M.O.B auto day 63
Very nice buds forming with super thick hairs. Gave her another haircut to remove the dead and dying leaves. In places where it was just a blade or 2 affected I just took those blades but the bad ones got nipped right off. Hopefully she'll get better soon.....

Teenage wedding auto day 22
Still a healthy, happy little plant. Started LST training. This time I'm trying some stem twisting to keep all the nodes laid out parallel to the soil. The branches will get trained toward the edges of the pot then left to go upwards

Looking sharp brother!

Finish line is in sight...

Your DDA is insane Knife! Fried or not I think it’s close to the biggest I’ve seen. Brixnewb grew one that got pretty big too - I think your looks pretty similar. I’m sure it’s about to give you a plentiful supply of great buds. I’ve never had the green pheno so I’ll be curious to see how you like it.

I do believe she's recovering, she has pushed out a bunch of new white pistils and looks like shes fattening up. We're at 94 days old today but I dont think she's close yet....

What is everyone running for exhaust fans? Im currently running a cheapo 4" inline fan that came as a bundle with the tent and a carbon filter. It's pretty loud, it can be heard everywhere in the house and it doesn't seem to move much air. The oscilating fan I use to push fresh air in from the bottom vent is enough to ballon up the tent and the exhaust fan cant keep up. Im ready to upgrade now that I know I want to keep growing so what is the quietest/best inline exhaust fan ?

 

[Graytail]

I've been using Solar & Palau, and the Cloudlines from AC Infinity come well recommended. They're both solid and quiet.

 

[Amy Gardner]

I’ll second the AC Infintiy range by Cloudline. I have their smallest model and love it. Was a big investment at the time and very well with it from day 1

Mornin Knife. Would like to highly recommend a 6 inch fan/filter combo for you. Oversize the combo and go with a 6 inch instead, with a 'Can ' #33 filter coupled to an Ostberg fan. Very quiet, very reliable. Mine is going on 7 yrs. old now and still working 24/7/365. Also recommend running them thru a speed controller at between 65 and 85 % max. This will save you in the end . If you are interested , pm me and i'l give u all the advantages of doing it that way. cheers eh.

Hey brotha!


Had an idea to run past you....

I want to have a blade made.... a tiny blade. LoL

Maybe 2 inch long, for cutting my blunts.

Seems like it's right in your wheelhouse...

I really want a "Santoku" style blade with a 9mm shell casing for the handle.

Possible?

Hit me up if you're interested, it'll save me from butchering it, trying to forge again...

Dda day 96
we seem to be out of the woods now, altho she still looks crispy it's not getting worse and is actually putting out new green growth.
Watered today with trans drench and tea

M.O.B day 69
Still battling her issues. Still losing leaves and more going crispy every day.
Also watered with trans drench and tea today

Teenage Wedding day 28
At least one of my girls is happy and healthy. I'm very happy with how her training is coming along.
T.W got her first Transplant drench this evening with her tea.

All 3 will get a brix Foliar spray tomorrow night.

Going to be ordering an AC infinity cloudline S6 with carbon filter. Was looking at the T6 but with my inkbirds I don't really need the extra environment controllers that come with the T6.

Have a knife day all
