Conradino23 Keeps On Keeping On Outdoor & Indoor Using LOS/High Brix Methods

I use everything customised.
 
Is it just an ammoniacal concoction, or do you aim for high P too? If using ammonium phosphate, when I target for high ammonium, the byproduct is high P which is my normal range for P. I'm in hydro, but I still want to try and reproduce this phenomenon and hopefully encourage a lot more tric growth (if possible).
 
There's no ammonia in there, but there's higher phosphorus and a bit of potassium.
 
No phosphorus is absorbed as a cation as well as potassium and calcium. Nitrogen is a bit more difficult, cause it has 4 different forms, anionic, cationic and neutral.

I keep nitrogen very low as you know and I get there by recycling the soil over and over. Around 3rd run I know exactly how they do with these levels and it really sets stuff apart. Some will want a lot just to grow at normal pace and some won’t ask anything. PD just now started calling for more by cannibalising the bottom leaves, so I catd her. It was the right time I think.

Bubbas look good to, but they’re way heavier feeders and I’m still trying to raise Brix a bit more. But it’s not that easy after all.

Nice,

My Bubba Hash has been feeding like crazy as well. Do the leaves always hang on them in later flower, or can you get yours to pray still once they bulk up? It seems like a trait of Bubba Kush are the big fat floppy leaves, but maybe that's just the way I've seen them grown.

What lead me to believe that it had something to do with ammonium was because phosphor is an anion.

I know the cat drench in Doc's kit has an ammonia based nitrogen in it, which may be why you're thinking that.
 
Yeah it's not as perky as the other gals. These fat leaves tend to flop and hang down, especially at the bottom. I tried to wait out longer between waterings to see if they're stimulated by dry soil, but I haven't seen much of a difference so far. They don't really drink that much either. Yesterday I gave one less than a gallon of water and she's still soaking it. One thing I have to say though is that they're damn fast and these colas are really big for the end of 4th week :theband:

In Doc's drench, there is 3% ammoniacal N. Considering this form of N should only amount to a portion of total N because plants will uptake NH4+ and OD on it quickly, to intentionally give that much NH4+ at once seems to be an aggressive change in the root zone and since the cat drench is only scheduled for one back to back application throughout the plant life, I am lead to believe that NH4+, in Doc's drench at least, is the intended element in the equation and P to a lesser degree. I am planning to test this theory in about 2 weeks, or when my youngest bloom plant finishes her stretch and sets her bud sites, though being in hydro in non-organic media, I believe I have no CEC and thus, might be blocked out from being able to benefit from a cationic shock. We'll see soon enough.
 
I stick to amino acids in my fish meal, it's usually enough even for heavy feeders. And if I need to use something stronger like with Bubbas I use very diluted piss and wood ash. But I do it rarely.

Ok, that's what I've been experiencing. Mines a beast but she drinks about half as often as my sativas.
 
And as we speak of BH, here are pics of BH #1 I snapped before the lights went on.

Btw Katsu and Bubba were on the recent Adam Dunn show and they talked about the genetics a bit... well NL #5 pollinated by a hermie OG basically, so no surprises :)
 
Hmm temps in the tent start reaching 29C, but Bubbas seem to love it!

So, are you saying that Bubba Kush is NL #5 pollinated by a female OG?
 
Exactly :)
 
No there’s definitely OG in there, thus harder to satisfy although way easier than your regular OG. They’re starting to turn this acid funk now. It might be due to temps, but genetics definitely plays the part too.
 
I found this on Leafly:

"The breeder whom this strain was named after states that Bubba Kush emerged just after 1996, when an OG Kush hybrid pollinated an unknown indica strain obtained in New Orleans. The mother plant was supposedly Northern Lights, but the genetically ambiguous indica was simply called “Bubba.” Bubba Kush has flourished from its California roots ever since."

:bongrip:
 
According to another well accepted story, Orgnkid had the first documented Bubba Kush showing it around Over Grow. Katsu got his cut from Orgnkid.
