InTheShed Grows Inside & Out: Jump In Any Time

[InTheShed]

I supercropped 6 stalks on my Dreamberry auto without issue, but she was a real hearty grower from day one.
I had already topped, trained, and transplanted her. I had the data to suggest she could handle it.

I supercropped a Purple Punch auto mid flower, didn't phase her a bit-the buds on the supercropped branches weren't any bigger than the others,but they weren't smaller either
I kinked about 3 branches,the other 3 bent "smoothly" without a kink.
Didn't matter, they all did fine, although the kinked ones look a little scary right at first...

Thanks guys! This is why beez posted here .

Ahoy there, Expressions of gratitude are extended to you and the @beez0404 tutorial on clones you had me try. Following your collective guidance I can happily report I am killing less clones. At this point the last six cuttings have all survived my care. This changes everything, finally enough success to engineer more studies.
Again, thanks Shed

I'm glad that beez' method has been working for you! I killed many fewer clones after I switched over and now am close to 100% success rate.

I'm holding out hope for that leggy lass that she's going to have a bud site growth explosion. And I agree with you on the super cropping. No sense letting what might be the only good bud get up into the light and get burned and crunchy. I'll super crop her this afternoon. Hopefully it will bend but not snap/break.

Make sure you get a good squeeze going, and prepare to support the branch if it wants to bend too far afterward. I use a bbq stick and electrical tape and create a hypotenuse with it from the up stalk to the bent stalk.

Okay, it's been a minute since I've posed any pics here, so how about a Thursday update.

Yesterday I transplanted the Golden Tiger and Fruit Punch clones (these were split back on April 2nd):

The roots had completely taken over the cups again so it was time. I'll give them a few days and then I'll top them to keep them small. These will be mother plants assuming that everyone likes the results of the ones in flower now.

Next up is the final weight for the It's It Punch solo cup plant:

• Apr 16, 2020

It's It Punch solo cup grow final weight: 23g

That's 23 grams, which is better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick.

On Monday I decided to do a clear-out of the old nutes from the two in flower, so I ran about 12 gallons of water through each one, and followed that with 2 gallons each of MC at 5.25g/gallon. I would have checked the PPM of the runoff at the beginning and end, but my meter no longer works. Oh well!

I took a couple of "before" pics of each to see if the flush changes anything about them, and I happened to like this pic of the GT:

I'm also getting ready to do my first QWET run, so I ground up about 20g of this summer's IIP mixed with some AK-47 from last year:

Buds for QWET project

I've only got 200ml of Everclear so I have to figure out how much bud that will cover. Grandpa Tokin and Penny both figured 15-20g, so I aimed high. I'll get to that project this weekend sometime, when I'm not on and off my work computer all day.

That's all for now. I'll get some pics of the spring plants tomorrow for y'all.

 

[Pennywise]

Mothers are looking good Shed.

 

[MrSauga]

and I happened to like this pic of the GT:

Agreed. Four more weeks and hopefully the sun will be shining like that here too!

 

[CraZysWeeD]

Clones and mothers look fantastic!

23g from a cup plant is not that bad, does the weed fit in one of those cups? Nice coloring of it as well, almost looks fermented.

Looks like you had a sunny day, enjoy it. We are getting colder weather here next week starting Sunday so maxing hours outside in my Shed now this weekend.

Stay safe, everyone!

Thanks sb! I think that was just the quality of the light coming through the window and the phone camera. I'll get a pic in the jar and see if they look better. Have a great Saturday!

Thanks for stopping by Wreck! I'll head over and take a look.

Okay it's time for a Saturday update! The sun is playing hide and seek today with at least a 10ºF temp difference between the two, but the plants are out getting what they can.

Let me start with the color of the solo cup IIP buds that @smokesbetter pointed out looked kinda funky in the final weight pic. Here they are this morning in the jar, still getting burped for 10 minutes 2x a day:

A much more natural color, yes?

Next up let's take a look at a lower inner leaf on the Fruit Punch (flip day 48):

There are a couple that look similar on both flowering plants, so next watering I'll bump them up to 5.75g/gallon and see how they like it. (The white spots are the milk/water spray.)

Finally, let's take a more detailed look at the spring three. Here they are:

Spring three

They are all a bit droopy since I hung the Mars 300 over them at night, so I'm going to drop the plants about 12" and see if that helps. If not they go back to 23w CFLs.

Speaking of the Mars 300, I had it so close to the Carnival and burned the top:

The AF-47's are showing some deficiencies at 3g/gallon so I'll bump them up to 3.5 next watering:

• Apr 18, 2020

AF-47 lower deficiency

And finally, let's take a look at the LST on the AF's. Since the plant is now a lot wider than the pot and the length of my BBQ sticks, I had to slide the stick further out, and I cross-braced it with one going the opposite way. This way the original stick has leverage against the pull of the top (note the upward bend!):

I've got to bake cookies for my dad, who I haven't seen in 6 weeks . They tell me he's okay though, so there's that.

I hope your weekend is progressing well and seems at least slightly different from the rest of the week!

 

[Carcass]

Nice update,Shed!
The spring 3 are looking great..good structural engineering on the restraints-but I think you're going to need some fatter sticks pretty soon!

Sorry you haven't been able to see him.
It's been a bit since I've seen my folks too.
It's good to hear that he is doing well.

 

[Fredwak]

Hi all! Who knew you could get that much from a cup grow. Awesome! Hope everyone and their loved ones are doing well. Did a drive by on my dad a couple weeks ago. My wife's going through extreme grandchild withdrawals. We usually have 3 or 4 over on the weekends. Stay safe and stay stoned!
