Dakine Real Maui Wowie In The Midwest

[TurboBucket]

Yup they're all good. Little setback at the beginning slowed them down. One of them lost a coty and the growth tip coming up but has recovered and is now making new growth so they should be just fine. I'll probably give them a little food soon.

Looks like a little taste of sunshine!

 

[TurboBucket]

Mmmm I hope so. Everything I can get my hands on around here is heavily indica structured dudes are looking for weight/speed. But I want something to keep me flying while I chase these kiddos around all day. Hopefully some of these Hawaiian strains coming up will do the trick.

 

[Pennywise]

Maui Wowie or Kona Gold both should do the trick. I can remember smoking Hawaiian Sativa and tossing frisbees around a park all day. Just enjoying life.

 

[TurboBucket]

That's what I'm looking for something to make the day better. I have the blood bx2 on preorder which is the red sapped Kona gold. I'd love to find a red male but who knows how long that will end up taking.

 

[Pennywise]

Yea it's not a common pheno the way I understand it.

 

[TurboBucket]

It doesn't sound like it. But on the plus side that's a pretty leisurely hunt through a stable strain to find an outlier. No real worries about getting different smoke or jacking up a canopy with 16 different possibilities just good old Kona Gold round after round. A red Kona period would be fine really. The other couple strains coming carry Kona lineage so it'll all be one big happy family.

Run an open pollination your first grow then you'll have plenty of seeds to pheno hunt from.

Good call. I was thinking about sexing clones and leaving the best male. But open pollination is easier and gives more diversity

Yep #dontmakemymistakes lol. Man it would be sweet to have a nice big basement though with that space you'll find some keepers dude.

First run do open pollination to preserve genetics then you can start searching for phenos based on your personal goals

Definitely very fortunate we own this house and that my wife is as big of stoner as me. I used to drool over people's setups on here. Now I just go peep mine.

Nice
That's what I thought after you mentioned it.

I've used diy top feed and it works well

Awesome.
Hey PW (or anyone else really), I'm wracking my brain on a DIY Top feed and so far here is my brainstorm:
Standard Drip Emitters with irigation line. I can use my 400GPH pump with a manifold. It can be flow controlled via gate.
I run 16 plants so I need 2-8 site or reduce it to running 12 plants I guess.
My thoughts are the waste portion
So if I have the table up 4" with say a 14"x14" cake pan under the holes i'm thinking a mini-float switch on a little circulation pump right into either another bucket or in the utility sink next to the tent.
Have you any recommendations for journals here, heck maybe a section in one of yours? with a return system as i've described? Heck one better?
The floraflex are awesome but out of my range $$ for now. I plan on getting the pot tops as I can spring the cash and just remain on the floor for height sake. upgrade as I can etc.
Thanks in advance!

 

[TurboBucket]

I think your on the right track with it. There's no reason that setup wouldn't work. Cannabis irrigation supply makes 12 head manifolds, pretty affordable grab one or a couple of those and you'd be set. For safety on a drain system you'd like your drain and tail bucket to be able to hold a spill or stuck timer/valve or not flood if the pump doesn't empty it.

But I get where your coming from wanting to keep it low profile. With small tail buckets a wet switch on the floor to stop the pump in the event of a leak could go a long ways to preventing damage.

Here's the little Maui babies at a week old.

Hey TurboBucket they're looking fine for a week. I'm sure the 2 smaller ones will catch up in no time, or maybe just different phenos.

Cheers

 

[TurboBucket]

Pretty unlikely to see a lot of phenotypes in these. Those lil ones got stunted during sprouting. They have started to recover but the bigger ones are opening the gap on them quickly.

 

[MaddHacker]

Pretty sexy TB.... Not real even growth, but thus is nature... Even though we think we are in control, we are really nature's ummmm B#$ch... LOL looks good ... Green days and to all...

 

[TurboBucket]

The little that lost a coty and the growth tip.

My setup used a 4x4 flood table and it set just high enough that I could drain right back into my Rez. No chance of over flowing the table. And it worked a charm.

Hi Turbo - thought I’d drop in here and checkout the Maui’s from time to time. I have a little box of these seeds too, and will get to them someday soon I hope. Looking forward to seeing this bunch grow out for you. So cool you just dropped them all!
