Carcass' $150 Low Budget Grow 2019

[Trala]

I like it so much, I bought one for "backup"

As I said tho,T it's not a vape, it's a pipe, so you'll be smokin', not vapin' if you get one.

If you do get one, you may never roll another joint...it works that well

I really want a vape.

All the cool kids are doing it. I wanna be a cool kid dammit!

I got an Arizer vape and it is pretty cool. It also came with the bag attachments so you can go volcano style without the $$$$. I think it makes me pretty dang cool whilst jumping off bridges.

I don’t know what volcano style means, but it sounds AWESOME!

In spite of the yellow leaves, the buds are looking awesome!

It sort of seems that in a SIP, they need/can handle more nutes than in a regular pot, to
achieve the same outcome-

I feel the same way. I have two plants - one in 15 gallon SIP and one in 20 gallon fiber pot. Both use the same soil, and same nutrients. The SIP plant really went yellow quickly once flowering started. The other plant is just chugging along happily. I tried so many things to stop the yellowing: Increased Core B, Increased Core A, added Terpinator, added CalMag, added a wet towel around the plastic planter to cool the reservoir. I think what has helped most was the thorough flush, and then back to standard PB nutes with added Terpinator.

I also have an Arizer. Mine is the portable Solo II. It's pretty much all I smoke with these days. My son has a desktop model QX2 (that comes with a bag attachment) that he really likes. I've tried his a half-dozen times or so, and I really like it too.

They are pretty cool, the weed really tastes good thru a vape too...

You're already cool, T!

If they all were jumping off bridges.

My Mom used to say that---except it was a cliff instead of a bridge..

There's a suggestion, Trala!

I don’t know what volcano style means,

Volcano is a pricey tabletop vape-the vapor goes into a bag, and you hit it from there...

I think what has helped most was the thorough flush,

I did a water change, but at the same time as adding the Core B, so I don't know if it helped with the yellowing- but something helped..maybe it was the combination..?
Nothing is cured though, she's not getting un-yellow, she's just not getting any worse..

I also have an Arizer.

There ya go @Trala - That sounds like the one to get!

 

[BooWho2]

I have a gallon each of Purp and Terp....please help me use it. I absolutely LOVE the PB nutes, I have a small stockpile. I'm stingy with them but I will share with other plants if I must. I need a recipe.

 

[Carcass]

I need a recipe.

I use Grow Dots, so I don't have much of a nute recipe- This is just what I add when the Dots start to get weak (@apx.65 days)

I only have Purpinator, which I use @15ml/gallon when my Grow Dots run out of gas- with the last plant, (ATF) it worked great- this plant not so much..so it's far from being a sure thing..

So, I started adding 12ml of PB's "Core B"to the feed almost a week ago, mainly for the Nitrogen, and it stopped any further yellowing- but, the yellow leaves are staying yellow- I was hoping they'd green up a little, but that's not happening...
She's within a week of being done, so now it just is what it is...

I have a small stockpile.

Yeah, I've got a bit of it too- I really should do a whole grow with it, but I'm not sure that'll happen...

Monday's here, and so am I!
Time for an Update on the 117 day old Wookiee auto #1-
It's her 89th day in her SIP, and she's been flowering for apx. 52 days.
Still plenty of yellow on her, but still some green too- she's like half and half...
She's still mostly 19"/48.5cm tall...

I turned the light down to 75 watts, (from 220) for the pics, so you can see her true colors...

The SaugaView®:

She's still drinking a gallon a day, and not showing any amber yet, so she's got a little while to go...
She's also started stinking pretty good this last week..

She's getting a little fatter every day...She's still being fed 15ml Purpinator, and 12ml Prescription Blend "Core B" with every watering- she's no greener, but she's no yellower either...

It's been warm the last few days, average temp in the box has been 88f- she doesn't seem to have a problem with the heat...she drinks a little more is all..
She's doing a good job of supporting herself- that seems to be yet another benefit of SIP gardening- super strong stems...

She's still putting out quite a few new pistils- seems like there's a fresh wave of them every morning..

The same pretty little bud from last week..with a little more frost this week...

The bud leaves are turning some interesting colors, although a lot of them are just yellow...

Finally, a silhouette shot...

And there's where we're at today!
Thank You for looking, I appreciate your support..
I hope you all have a great week...

Good morning C Canopy

She looks great! Somehow you even manage to make yellowing leaves look beautiful!

Beautiful carcass

 

[InTheShed]

Great stacking and it's moving into Popeye territory again! Half and half on the leaves ought to hold you the 7 days you figure it has left.

 

[Grand Daddy Black]

She's a real looker Carcass!

I'm amazed at how you consistently churn out such lovely plants.

I hope that by the time I reach your age I will have learned to do the same!

 

[Carcass]

Thanks, T! She's got some pretty red and gold ones thrown in for good measure...

Beautiful carcass

Thank You, Kieth..

Half and half on the leaves ought to hold you the 7 days you figure it has left.

I figured she'd be all yellow by now, so any green that survives is a bonus!

I'm amazed at how you consistently churn out such lovely plants.

Thank You, GDB! I blame the sticks for that!

I hope that by the time I reach your age I will have learned to do the same!

Now that you're using the hooks, it won't be that long...

 

[BooWho2]

She’s gorgeous Carcass. Any thought on what’s next?

Thank You, Boo!
Next up indoors is going to be a Barney's Gelato 45 fem/photo comparative grow with Trala...just waitin' on the seeds...so I'll have about 2-3 weeks of downtime before that starts...I feel odd when I don't have something growing, so I may start an outdoor auto (in the small SIP) while I'm waiting...although, I'll probably run out of summer before that one gets done...
If I need to, I can get out the ol' Atreum Hydra-1000 to finish it in the garage...
I've got autos out the wazoo, I need to get some grown...

They are pretty cool, the weed really tastes good thru a vape too...

Besides the fact you're not inhaling loads of burned plant material.
The way weed can taste through a vape is phenomenal (convection over conduction vapes for flavour)
Everyone I present the vape and homegrown bud to taste is pretty much blown away.
Also the hit is very instant and super high.
And those first couple of drags are just pure the flavour and terpenes of your plant, also it keeps that flower taste lingering in your mouth and breath for a long time after using.. Much more pleasant than a bong rip or joint and a cold ashtray taste lingering.
Oh and heck if you use bong and vape you can also rip large vape clouds and the bong just doesn't muck up..
That bong water stays clean and the flavour as well.
Sorry just wanted to praise the vape as we need to get people off burning.. it's not good for you.

 

[Carcass]

Thanks, Fenderender- I get that, but I don't seem to be able to get high from vaping..maybe a tiny buzz, but it takes a lot of weed for that tiny buzz, like 4 times as much as I'd have to smoke...
I've got 3 dry herb vapes (DaVinci Miqro, Magic Stone, and Auxo Calent) so I'll keep trying..maybe I'm doing it wrong or something...although they're about as easy to use as it gets...

 

[Fenderbender]

So what do you usually do? bong rips? joints? with tobacco?

 

[Carcass]

I always just used a regular pipe, then I won a Cipher Nova in one of the contests on here- it's an electronic pipe that lights the weed with a plasma arc- works great, once you get past the learning curve- now it's all I use-
But it's still just a pipe, and it burns the weed, so just as bad for your lungs as joints...
I got a nifty little bubbler for it, which mellows out the smoke quite a bit, but it's still just "smoking"..
I plan to keep trying the dry herb vapes- I was a cigarette smoker for 45 years,(quit 5 years ago) so my lungs don't really need any more abuse...
