GT's Ongoing Garden of Weeden - Keep It Simple Stupid!

Alright my friends, I've got my camera, but still no pics!! I have to get a friggin charger for it!

So, here is a text update:

Lucy Mom has about 50 top's, main cola's, I trimmed ALL the underbrush, underlit stuff off to focus on those HUGE cola's she makes. 18-20g's per cola is not uncommon with my pheno of Lucy. I have a clone off her I am bonsai'ing and putting back for later. I will grow it again, but for now I need it dormant so that I can get through some of my other strains, to cull out the trash and keep my favs... I also have a couple other clones I took while trimming her, and 1 more in a 2l hempy in the flower room.....

GDP is starting to show sex, very tiny, but looks like we may have a female!! I hope my eyes weren't deceiving me, and I took a couple clones from the bottom of the plant just in case. She is filling well, with her side branching catching up with her main top, probably not a good SOG plant, but that's fine, I will use outdoors if it lives up to the hype, I am hoping it is as good as the GDP I've smoked...

Wild Thai is doing well, and she has a stature similar to the GDP, I can't wait to try this stuff, I've heard great things about it from my friend OMM, and you know I trust your judgement buddy!!! I've got to get my wife and kids over there to meet ya'll one day!! Share some buds and some great stories, man, I can see us now!! And hear my ole lady and Ms Jo cackling it up, and playing with the kids!!! What a great time I bet we would have...

Blueberry Gum is doing excelent. She has such a great smell to her already, and showing pistil's and preflower's, well tiny ones, but they are there. As a UFO I would love for her to be a good score, and the way she is growing I have good hopes..

TGA Subcool's Qleaner, well, looks like it may be a male! Damn!! Last I grew of this was TOP NOTCH stuff!! Perfectly suited for SOG with HUGE main cola's, I can see 2l hempy's pulling 20 g's + per a plant fairly consistently. I got 5 zip's off of 3 cola's outside. I really kick myself for not taking clones, but at the time I had no way/place to keep em up safely...Ohh well, good thing I have more seeds...Think I will be popping some the next few days, I really want to get some more of it going. If this plant does in fact turn out male, I will bonsai it and breed with GDP, or maybe even Lucy, don't know yet, but I will be saving a male from this strain for breeding purposes.

In Veg I have:

Barney's Farm Vanilla Kush
Dinafem White Widow (Anyone have any experience with this breeder's version of WW?)
Another Qleaner, which I'm bonsai'ing, but don't know the sex yet, what the heck, might as well right??
Barney's Farm Acupulco Gold
Emerald Triangle's Royal Purple Kush
Some Lucy Clones, a LOT of them
Some Blueberry Gum clones
Some Wild Thai clones
GDP Clones

I'm having a problem with what looks like root aphids, and I see some dang thrips, but I'm on second week of SNS treatment, and it looks like I may be getting them under control. I think one more treatment will take em out, I'm seeing nothing in or on the soil anymore, and just a few on the plants, so I know the treatments are working..Not my first time dealing with these SOB's, and they are a pain in the ass, but they are beatable if you get em early. If you do any outdoor growing, you should be a veteran of pests, and so far, I really like my SNS products, good as anything I've used thus far, and it was free from the contests I won. I will be purchasing when I get low though, so I ALWAYS have it on hand. That's where alot of people go wrong, they don't keep up with their pest control products, and when the see them, they order some, and by the time the stuff arrives, it's too late, your infested. So keep these things handy, trust me....Specially if you grow outside...

Well that wraps it up for now, after these strains I have are sorted through, I will get on to the hempy perpetual growing that 420fied has made so successful and famous here. Mine will also be under 2 600's, or maybe a 600 and a 1000 watter, just for the comparison of the two. I will run 50 plants per light, or 100, on 2 week cycle's of 50 plant's harvested per cycle. I need to get at least 15g per plant to make it count, so I will be trying several strains to see which suits me best. I want to have 2 strains per cycle, so 25 or on strain, 25 of another, then 2 weeks later, 2 more strains, so it is important I cycle strains that share similar flowering times at in the same cycle.

Well that's all for now, hope everyone approves, and please chime in with anything you feel...

Peace and God bless,
GT

yes I have to agree Quleaner is beauty to grow and to light up and get your work done
 
I'm going to mail you my camera if yah don't hurry you are killing us GT! lol! :bitingnails:
 
Thanks guys, I promise LOTS of pics as soon as I can. Well you guys know me, I post sometimes too many pictures!!! Well, just got in the house, had to house sit/babysit last night at a friend's and me and the wifey are tired!! Gotta run down to the cave, water, and get to bed!!

Peace and God bless,

Quick Update:

Water tubs refilled tonight. Will let them sit and de-chlorinate for next couple of days, then add my nutes. A note on this, I keep two 20 gal totes filled, one with nutes, one straight h20, and I hand water/feed all my plants. This wil be changing once I am perpetual again. I will probably build an automatic water system, but engineer it myself. No fancy stuff, just a timer, float valve, tubing and connectors, a small pump, and an aerator. Or, rather, probably skip the pump, float valve, timer and crap, just put a turn valve and cut it on/off manually, yep, that sounds more my style...

Friggin' timer on my light was trashed, had to switch it out, come to find out, they may have been in 24 hr light last day or so, I'm not sure because of the limited time I had in the cave. Maybe, just maybe, it decided to crap out on me today, and no harm done.

Other than that everything is looking nice, Lucy Mom may be too tall for the space, so I may just have to trim her down once more, she is about 4 1/2 - 5' now, I may just flower her out in her own space, will decide on that next day or two.

Lucy, GDP, Wild Thai, and Blueberry Gum clones are looking good and perky. Once rooted, will transplant to 3" pots and bonsai for moms.

That's all for the update my friends,

GT

Since I can't take pics of my current grow, some old memories of times past to help pass the time, and please the eye:

GT. I have been trying to find when you switched to BPN and for the life of me cannot,,Anyway,,didn't you start with FF? Why did you switch? I just ordered the fox farm kit,,did Iscrew up? I am very new to growing and still waiting for some seeds to poke their little heads up:thumb:

Hey brother, welcome to :420: !!

I switched about the same time that I started the Budcave project. I am completely happy with both the performance of the nutes(which frm what I've seen, easily rivals FF and all the Big names), the price is friggin AWESOME!!, and the customer service is the best part, the owner/operator is a very present person here in the community, and an all around great person.
