Our Ongoing Grows

Thanks Alaska. Sure hope some of that stuff works out for ya. You gotta stay ontop of them mites. As soon as you think you got them licked they re infest your whole trip. Least one good thing is you are growing flips and that gives you a great time to spit and shine the room. As far as my grow hell it is a weed. Some people over grow it. I can see where one in hydro needs to pay closer attention to all the ph and such. But I like the lazy mans way. You doing a much more aggressive grow. I always end up doing the perpetual grow thing. Does make it harder as far as mites, pm, and the such, but I like to keep busy when I feel like it. So I always end up getting bored and go plop another in flower. Alaska you seem like a good dude. I sure hope you get that light going. I really like those hoods. Kind of gets my goat what I paid for for my ballast and bulb for the 1500. I could've gotten 2 for the price of the one, minus the bulb. If it wasn't for having to worry about the temps in the summer I'd sure be running 2 1500 watters. I guess I could spring for air in there but why?
Thanks PropaGator. But truth be know, I deal with my share of problems. I just tend not to post alot of pic's of my failures. This problem has been kind of ongoing. I figure it has to have something to do with soiless soils. Hell they take just about all the goodies out making it easier to get deficiencies. I might have to get all the way back to basics to cure it. Compost pile and all. Did I say that? Wow that's abit to much work. So I guess I just need to sling alittle heavier suppliments at them. But thanks for the compilment. I do post any problems that might be of intrest to others to check out.
Well fast update, I guess I have a perpetual cloner too going for a minute. I cut 3 Star-47's, 3 Speotniks, and acouple more Cripits and Vantages. Then I'm going to throw the mothers in flower. I've grow all these out, but the Speotnik #1 I grew outside. The weed is desent herbs. I've grown better before tho. Well I have one in flower right now. She's like 4-5 weeks in. I haven't grown any out under lights yet tho. Maybe that will help keep the strain ontop, but this strain is on the fence right now. If it comes out better on the inside I'll keep it around till something bumps it out of it's spot. But outdoors,, I wood rather grow out a Church again before it.
The Star-47 is good herb too. It produces alot of decent herb inside and out. Inside it can yield really great. Last plant I think we got 1/2 lb off of. And she wasn't all that big of a plant either. So I'll keep it going for abit longer. Got afew new strains gifted me. Thanks Dave. I've heard alot of good things about God Bud. I understand it's suppose to have great smell while growing and after. Pretty sure it's BC stock. And another plant that doesn't need any intro, AK-47. That strain has won more awards than any other. I always shied away because of prices for regular seed. Like 20 per. It's one strain for as popular as it is, I've never grown any of it out before. I've done alot of AK's just not 47. Great looking clones for sure. Well that's it for now Keepem Green
 
Thank Vic and Jon. I hope everyone had a great bird day. I know we did. All that honey baked ham and turkey was killer.
I just wanted to post acouple quick pic's of a P-91 that is just about ready to harvest. It's been in flower for 50 days or there about. Without any more wait here's afew pic's of her. BTW that one pic on the purple book, is the Cover of The Big Book of Buds 4th. And the pic is of some Cripit from the same vendor Stoney Girl Gardens. Heres P-91 with 2 more days to go;

and last but not least;
p-9113.JPG

These buds are so wet with oils its incredible. I grew these before but I think the extra week in flower will help alot. Well thats it for now, till laters Keepem Green
 
Just a fast note. Cut the P-91 today. all this talk bout errr mites,, well found afew on it. Not enough to worry about. But I do have like 6 plants I've just put into flower within the last 7-10 days. I did spray all these as I put them in flower, but least it's early enough to give them a fast wash of azatrol or some neem. I didn't see mites on any leave material but found acouple in the bud. So I took it a day early. I did sample some I cut afew days back tonight. I like it myself. I burnt a 1/3 a dubie acouple hours back and it works. This is day 53 for her in flower. Looking like about 3 1/2 oz's. And I have a that Speotnik that's been in flower like 50 days so far. She looks cloudy but some the hairs are starting to die off, so I flushed her. She'll be ready in about 4-6 days I'd imagine. Solid 4 oz's off her. I think. Well take care Keepem Green
 
I'm thinking close to that Miwa. I'm wanting some pollen to try to add alittle something something to the Cripit. Not that it isn't good meds, but I'd like to try making a strain with certain smells. I don't have any regular seeds out there except stuff I crossed earlier. I did knowtice that the seeds I made crossing Bubba Kush with a Skunk don't seem to like hatching. I've tried twice and they peter out within 2 weeks. I did use old pollen that wasn't stored properly and it only produced afew seeds compaired to what I got off the earlier cross with Special Queen
Well fast update. I have a AK X Skunk going. I let her get alittle larger than most plants I'm growing lately. I have it and the P-91 under the 1500 watter. Here AKxSkunk;

And here's the P-91;

Man talk about night and day, compair the P-91 to the AKxS.
Well till later Keepem Green
 
Just another fast update. I was posting on a friends thread the other nite and I was doing a no no. I was kind of bragging that one of my ballasts had been running for around 10 years. And when the lites kicked on that night, I looked and I'll be damned, it burnt out. I mean 10 years it was probable on 12 hours a day for 80% of those years. Well least I sure got my monies outta it. I can replace really cheap like 150$ for another magnetic, but I think I'm going to opt for a dimmable digital ballast. I kind of like the option of burning a 600 instead of the 1000 on real hot days in the summer. Wood save alot on heat.
And I looked into the date I started flowering the Speontik. She's at 61 days so we took her this morning. The outddor herbs from her are good med's. But I've had better. She did produce like 22 oz's on my outdoor one. But some plants I think well fair alot better under lites. Maybe this is one. I have one I just put in flower about a week ago, but if this herb doesn't come up on the kick, I can easily find other to try and fill it's place. I mean the weeds not bad maybe 7.25 on the scale of 1-10, but there are better strains going around that I like better. Speaking of one, I just started a SLH in flower, after I cloned her ofcourse. I'll say one thing about SLH it is a winner in my book. Got the taste, and the kick. Ok back to Speotnik, I did get a pic or two but they don't do the buds justice. Here we go;

When I get alittle more time I'll try to get better pic's up soon of it. It's some pretty ass buddage. Hopefully I'll have to grow out the other and the clone I have in my clone tent. Got alot of plants in the babies tent. That tent is like 36" X 20" with a 250 watt MH right now. Works great seeing how cold it gets out in the office.
Well I'm off to sample something. Hope everyones doing great out there and Keepem Green
 
Spoetnik looking good buddy! I love Super Lemon Haze. It's officially in my top 5 overall, and probably my favorite tasting strain to date. :yummy:

Bummer you jinxed yourself on the ballast! The newer digitals seem pretty good and the adjustable wattage is nice for sure.
 
OG, well I got it going pretty good. Looks like I have about 5 clones I'm getting ready to cut and get started. I liked the weed myself also. But one thing I have to say, XLR is right, that Super Lemon Haze is some of the tastiest weed I've smoked in along time. And no slouch is the potency department either. But I really think anyone wood love the Vantage. Fast plant 50 days max, easy to clone, and a very forgiving plant as far as fert burn, mites, or even PM. This plant will be the last one to succumb when all other plants are infested with mites or pm. Mites love certian plants and not others. So the others will hold out better. And you can also root Vantage straight in soil just like the Cripit.
Well I have one Berkley Blue left in the veg tent, oh and one clone also going incase the plant works out. I'm growing a test plant inside. Just like Speotnik, I grew it outdoors. It was usable product from the outdoor grow, but I'm hoping it will fair better indoors. I have one in flower that's just about ready to harvest. I started flushing her last night anyways. She's at around day 50. Solid buds like the Cripit. It has a very sweet smell reminds me of grapes. Well in acouple days the sample I cut last night will be smokable. Hopefully she'll work out. I woodn't mind growing another outdoors next summer. But if she doesn't get better inside, I cull it. Besides I'm 100% sure I'm going to have acouple 'Church' plants out there. I said plants, I meant trees. Well that's it for now, till laters, Keepem Green
 
Thanks Jon. I try. After awhile they all get to run together and start to all look the same.
Well I tried that Dry Ice hash process. Man it works great and saves so much labor over water and ice. I'll never do it any other way. I processed alittle sample run and got 40 grams. And I haven't scratched to surface of the trim I have stored. I'd guess I have about 3 lb's of small buds and sugar leaves out in the freezer. All this is prime hash material. I guess I can throw a gram in my clients bag for a X-mas present. Sure looks like I'm going to have a pretty good quanity of bubble hash soon. I think I'm going to do another sack tonite. And dry ice is cheap. 2.25$ for a kilo. And that's plenty to flip around a half oz, if I run enough thru. Going to be fun to see what I end up with. I tried to stop before the plant material started to flow thru. The hash has a pretty blond look to it. Well I'll try to update some tonight. Till then Keepem Green
 
Awesome. Congrats on the DI hash. Sounds like you give it two thumbs up. I definitely need to do that at some point. Thanks for sharing your insight on it! :thumb:
