Grandpa's Second Try - Come Join Us!

Their website is down, but that light seemed pretty beefy. I think it would be great in a 3'x3' tent. .
Thanks for your reply, doc. So, are you in agreement that we should just have the Growant on, and then turn on the Mars Hydro 300 on Bloom when we flip?

I'd defer to the experts, but honestly I feel that a $700 light shouldn't really need much help in a 3'x3' tent if you know what I mean. .
 
Grandpa, what's the name of your Auto so I can confirm its' light schedule for you?
I'm sorry, sis. Not sure what you are asking for. If it's for the strain we are doing with the auto genetics, it will most likely be blue cheese.
 
Sorry my bad...sometimes Autoflowers have a 20/4 light schedule when a photo period can handle a 18/6 light schedule. Thus proposing a potential light schedule conflict that would be too late if you soaked them already. So I like to double check your lovely seeds for breeder specific instructions because it is common to learn great info about your strain that might help you. I have found this information in my research and present it to you, the Grower, like a fine wine Sir... hahahaha

Great News Grandpa! Check out the info I found on your Dinafem - Blue Cheese Autoflower and the 30% coco recommendations from the breeder.
How perfect is that? BTW no specific lighting schedule required, go ahead and grow with your photo period light schedule. :)

"Blue Cheese Auto cannabis seeds by Dinafem Seeds belong to a feminized, autoflowering cannabis strain obtained by crossing a Cheese Auto and a Blueberry Auto. After more than 5 years working on different automatic strains, we have managed to noticeably improve their size, yield, flavour, aroma and effects.

Blue Cheese Auto grows into a fast-flowering, high-yielding, easy-to-grow, small, vigorous marijuana plant that produces beautiful, large, compact, heavy buds brimming with resin. It can develop purple hues if it is cold at night, but being a very early harvest outdoors, this will only happen in very cold regions.

We recommend that you add 30% of coco to the soil mix in order to improve air circulation and root development, which will result in better plant development. Also, remember that automatic plants enjoy little but frequent watering.

The aroma of this marijuana plant is sweet and fruity, with hints of berries and an intense aftertaste of Cheese. The flavour is sweet and fruity too, with pronounced hints of blueberries. The effect is relaxing, perfect for unwinding.

Characteristics of Blue Cheese Auto cannabis seeds
Suitable for: Indoors and outdoors
Sex: Feminized autoflowering
Genotype: Indica-dominant
Cross: Cheese Auto x Blueberry Auto
Comprehensive life cycle: 65-75 days
Indoor yield: 40-135 g/m2

Wow Lady G, I remember in going over some strains at a seed bank or two that a few do suggest certain light schedules for a specific strain. I just never thought to cross-check them. Thank you for taking the time, and being as detailed as you always are! Thank you, sis! :hugging-face:
 
I am growing a Blue Kush auto from Dinafem and she is definitely going to produce. Very resilient strain taking well to LST and defoliation and if it grows this well in 12/12 conditions I couldnt imagine how much she would put out with a longer light schedule.
 
Blue Kush - Dinafem

Here you go Grandpa...Sativa dominant will be uplifting and cerebral, all the right terpenes. Now it says this strain would be good in scrog etc, that tells me that she likes to grow tall, as most sativa's do. You might have to flip her to flower earlier than an Indica dominant, to control the height of this beauty. I wonder if her height might be a problem for you since you're not really doing any low stress training.

PW, what do you think?

Do you think the sativa might escape and run amok, or will it behave for Grandpa?
Do you think an indica dominant might be easier to manage this time instead, keeping it short and bushy for this grow type with new soilless mediums?

Sorry about all the questions, I'm trying to see if there are avoidable roadblocks. :)


"Blue Kush cannabis seeds by Dinafem Seeds belong to a feminized, Sativa-dominant cannabis strain obtained by crossing a Blueberry and an OG Kush, which has resulted in a hybrid that boasts a superb flavour and aroma.

Blue Kush is a real treat for the senses. It grows into an outstanding, fast-flowering, easy-to-grow, hardy marijuana plant that produces big, compact buds covered in resin regardless of the experience of the grower.

Elegant and medium-sized, Blue Kush cannabis seed grows well indoors, especially in hydroponics, SCROG and SOG. Outdoors it responds best to temperate/continental climates and to the cosy environment of a greenhouse. With complex and attractive organoleptic properties, it is aimed at cannabis gourmets but is also suitable for those seeking a plant with therapeutic properties.

The flavour and aroma of Blue Kush are pronounced, with fresh hints of lemon, pine and red berries. The effect is powerful, long-lasting and rather cerebral. It is the perfect cannabis strain to have a good time with friends."
 
I want to show y'all the awsome Mardi Gras beads that T sent with the hempy. 3 guesses who the photographer is... :winking-face:

That must be Kelley, I recognize her photography. :) Cool beads!

WELCOME beautiful, healing, and patient soul. :welcome:

Last bit of research for you Grandpa... THANKS PW for the lead :)

Strain info for UltraDog. This looks to be a hybrid of the "ChemDawg" series of genetics. Here is what I was able to capture that was relevant. I didn't find specific info on UltraDog but I did look up the other growers and here is some great info ..."


"Chem Dog is an OG Kush/Sour Diesel cross. It is a 70% indica marijuana strain that won 2nd Place in the International Cannagraphic-420 Growers Cup in 2008. It boasts very high THC production levels.

Chem Dog is best cultivated indoors using either SCRoG or LST to control growth and maximise yields. In a nine week flowering period up to 800 gr/m2 can be yours. Outdoor growers will discover a multi-branched plant with long inter-nodal spacing. By the end of the first week of October in northern Europe it's possible to harvest up to 1000 gr/plant dried weight.

This strain's high THC level has been recorded at 21.51% with medium levels of CBD at 1.5%. The combined effect of these figures gives rise to a very long-lasting, narcotic stone with marked perception alteration. Be warned, it is very strong indeed! It has therapeutic uses as a treatment for chronic pain.

Words that came along with the UltraDog seeds....

In 1999 my old lady's son was and still is friends with one of the biggest commercial growers in So Cal. He gave me two clones of Original Clone Only O.G. Kush and two clones of M.K. Ultra. Over the next two years I crossed the two to make Ultra O.G. Then Purple Urkiel hit and every buddy went Purple Crazy, so I ordered some Aurora Indica from Amsterdam and bread that in to the Ultra O.G. to make my personal strain Aurora Ultra. Then in 2006 I was given five ChemDawg 91 X Soma NYCD ( New York City Desiel ) seeds, all those seeds turned out to be male. One of the male plants was the most beautifully semetric plants I have ever seen. I was like the most beautiful 4 ft tall X-Mas tree you ever seen. I took that plant and put it in my dining room Bay window and let it make pollen. Then I pollenated one branch of every strain I had going at the time. Grape Ape, Jack Herer, Aurora Ultra, a really bitchen Unknown, and some others I cant think of right now. I ended up with a shit lode of seeds I will never use all of, so I mailed some to different friends on 420 of which xxxxx was one of. At the time xxxxx was growing Landrace only. He took the seeds I sent him and crossed in the two different Landrace strains. So all the lineage in the UD's are straight up Original Old School Refer. When xxxxx says Chem phenom or O.G. phenom that just means they haven't been back crossed for stabilization. So you never know for sure how any one seed will be. So like UD Chem means that plant is more like ChemDawg then O.G. Kush phenom or the Deisel phenom. Unless you stabilize the seeds you never know for sure how the plants will turn out.
