Doc Bud's High Brix Q&A With Pictures

So I guess what I am saying is be mindful of what your doing, butter like mine would ruin someone's day.

Epic! :bravo: I dunno if I am just too high, but this line deserves more than just a thumbs up click!! I would do a shot of that shit! hehe

anyhow.. I just chopped one of 3 white rhino/g.d.p. crosses(pheno hunt for teh dankness). I tried Doc's bud wash method on this lady. My water didn't get brown like some others I have seen. Maybe I'll up the agitation on the next go round.. seems like the buds swelled up a little after the dunking.. cant wait to sample it.. Gonna chop the rest of them in a week or two.. Then I will make my first high brix attempt. I'm debating what I'm gonna grow with doc's kit.. I have a nice clone I have been running for about a year in hydro. I also wouldn't mind popping some seeds.. I was going to run my clone in one pot and ken's kush seeds in the other 3 pots or maybe all seeds and skip the clone for a round.. heck I dunno..

Take it easy
 
Personally, if transitioning from an alternative method (like hydro) to Doc's kit, I'd suggest growing a strain you're familiar with already. That way as it progresses through the stages in the kit, you can have a direct reference for differences in methods, and how the plants express traits differently in them. That's why I included this 8-ball kush in my first kit grow.

:peace::cool:
 
Hey Doc, just a few questions from a nube. I've been browsing forums for a few years now and I've completed a couple of very small scale outdoors grows but I'm definitely a nube. Just joined this forum so I could actually interact some and kept seeing this "high brix" terminology popping up in random grow journals so did a search......and I can't stop reading! I'm a big fan of organic anything so this obviously has more than peaked my interest. My questions are: 1. I think I saw you say on one of the hundreds of pages I've read through that the high brix method is designed for indoor but works even better outdoor. I'm assuming though that this would be in a container only, as directly in ground no matter the size of the hole would introduce too many uncontrollable factors as the root system expands past a certain boundary? 2. Have you tried it in air pots? 3. Do you lst at all or is it strictly topping?

I apologize if these are ridiculous questions. Thanks, and wow do your plants look unbelievably healthy. Subbed to your current grow after reading through your others. All in!

Actually, the gear I run is designed for outdoor use and is adapted (fairly well) for indoors.

Outdoors, we amend the soil, and there is no need for containers, just a fertile field.
 
Here's a few pics from harvest today. More to follow.

Doc... RH question.

Should the RH be the same or close to the same during both light and dark period or does it matter?

How about any differences in RH based on what stage of the life-cycle they are in? (Veg vs Bloom?) etc.

Thanks!

PS: Got mine up to 50% :)

Short answer: 50% is perfect, day and night.
Complex answer: you can use rH to bring out resin by having some cool, dry nights. You can increase rH to 60% for plants under stress and it seems to help, and some strains like it a bit more humid, etc.

I try to keep mine between 50 and 60.
 
Noted.

Thank you!
 
Ive been considering beefing up a few "lazy susans" and adding pullys to the bottoms, then getting a small motor with a reduction gear set to rotate the pots a full turn, proportionate to the lighting schedule. Just a thought...so far
 
Someone on here did that with autos rotating around HPS hanging vertical in the middle of them. In the end he said it worked better when he just grew them normally. He was using Xmas tree spinners.
