Crashdog's 1st Grow Journal - How To Torture Small Leafy Things - DWC

Maybe you can add a five gallon to it with a pump and line to top off automatically. Or just a short pipe down low so it always auto levels. 5 gallons of roots and a remote res with an additional five gallon capacity for the nutes.

Rez change day.

o Started 11th Week of Flower for Ak-47 and Golden Leaf Clone (Day 70 F)
 AK and Golden clones —5ml/0/15 + .5tsp DRY Koolbloom (WK 11 of GH feeding Schedule —website) PPM=513@68
 Flush GL next week, check on AK it might be a week behind
o Started 7th Week of Flower for Liberty Haze. (Day 42 F )
 Liberty Haze — 7.5ml/0/15 + 5 LKB(wk 10 of GH feeding Schedule —website) PPM=480@67

Adding Dry Kool Bloom to the clones this week.
GL has some amber trich's - will probably start flush next week.
The AK-47 looks like a week behind the GL. Hoping 2 wks of Dry Kool Bloom wont hurt it. She is still showing white pistils.

Golden Leaf Clone

Ak-47 Clone

Liberty Haze. Wendy was a piece of cake compared to this gal

Family Shot

It will be nice to get the clones out of the tent soon. The Liberty Haze needs the room if only to rotate her a bit. Some leaves are getting light burn.

I realized I've been screwing up topping of the girls. Been giving them full strength nutes when the water is low. The ppm was high at that time. DOH!!
Realizing that mistake, I've been giving them strait un pH'd water to get the ppms down and the pH up but forgot to add Hydroguard to the water. Thankfully no root rot yet.
Hopefully I've got my ass together now.

 

[Planter420]

WOW that gold leaf came out damn good. All the girls are looking good dude keep it up

 

[Crashdog]

First attempt at making butter
Using ounce of trim to half pound of clarified butter.
It will be cooking in the crockpot 9 to 10 hours

With my low tolerance it'll probably knock me on my ass

 

[Planter420]

Oh, it will, tread lightly lol made that mistake recently . good job brother, what do you plan on making with the budder?

 

[Crashdog]

Brownies of course. I need to make something easy.

She just got put in the fridge. We'll see what she looks like in the am.

Ordered my first vaporizer. Went with the Flowermate Mini V5.0X

 

[Planter420]

Cool deal, tried and true. Oh and tasty too! Speaking of taste, that vaporizer will probably give you improved taste, way better than a joint. I still need to get one but I think I'll keep trying to win one lol.

 

[Crashdog]

Butter is done
It's very green and smelly

 

[Planter420]

Wow that came super dark. You're gonna get mashed up like potatoes .
We made a cake with our budder run and man it was lethal but it didn't last very long lol we ate the whole cake in 36 hours lol

 

[Crashdog]

It tastes just like it looks, yuk. I wouldn't spread it on toast.

Can I dilute it by melting it with more butter?

To be honest, when it's that awesome looking, it totally goes on toast, but then you HAVE to cover it in cinnamon and sugar. Other than that, bake it into stuff to dilute.

 

[Planter420]

It will make it weaker but yeah you could do that but I don't know how it will mix as it won't be infused. It may justbwater it down but it may stay separated from the rest of the butter. If you do it let us know how the two butters interact. Looks like it was overdone and more of the chlorophyll transferred than should've. You strained it well?

 

[Crashdog]

oh ya, there is no pieces in it. I think I ground it up to fine. I found my old coffee grinder and set it to "dust" lol .

I'll just use it for baking

 

[Planter420]

That will help with the taste. That why people started using fudge brownies lol. Should be fine in a cake or brownie . let us know how you like it, it's a little different. Takes an hour or two to kick in fully

 

[Pennywise]

Took some getting used too for me.

 

[Crashdog]

Thanks dude, I eat half a brownie this weekend when I'm doing yard work and see how it goes.

2/9 am - WW seed sank after a finger tap. Put her in a Rapid Rooter pointy side up and under the dome with a heat mat.

2/10 PM Added Less than ¼ strength nutes to buckets. Strength based of 3 gals. Buckets have closer to 4 at the moment
- WW sprouted but stem is curled.

2/11 - she still hasn't busted out yet.

2-12 - the AK47 (Alice) and Golden Leaf(Goldie) have started their 2nd set of true leaves. The 1st White Widow(Wendy N) has not. Moved Wendy back into the dome. * edit she should never been in the DWC yet in the first place. I have not seen any roots coming out of the RR yet**

Helped the 2nd WW(Wilma G) bust out. She is long and lanky. Should of done this earlier.

I just realized Ive been using rapid rooters upside down from the start...

I've used them both ways.

It really depends on what you are setting them in.

They do stand up better upside down if on a flat surface.


I few shots from last night.

2 of the clones and the last one is the Liberty Haze
