Oz's First Grow - Pyramid Tut In Coco

Hi mate and thank you for the kind words :adore: :) :Namaste: We do have a temps issue though :( I went and checked it and it was up to 102f :thedoubletake::thedoubletake: with only 40rh. I've turned all the 4 fans to full power and raised them to canopy height. I've watered the coco around the girls and just given them a decent 1/2 strength feed too. I also changed the HPS to MH so they should be a bit cooler. Mind you, 2200w of MH is still pretty hot :slide::slide:
 
Great work oz I hope it all worked :)
With the heat...... Turning inside fans on may make your 103* oven into a 103* fan assisted oven lol
Key may be fining a way of pulling cold air into your space

I'm horrid henry and your perfect peter lol anyone with kids of the 2000's will relate lol

La once again mate thanks for ur on going support :)
 
Lol. Just back from a visit to the sauna posing as a grow tent lol :) LA.....that telepathy is working great my mate :) I switched the extract on and the temp dropped from 95f to 88f in 15 mins :) Not really what I wanted to do yet but, hey ho lol. Neg pressre is unreal in there too. I thought it was going to implode lol :)
Alex my buddy, what can I say? Perfect Peter it is then......HENRY! lol :)
 
Hey Mick, THIS is the perfect window to which you should separate the twins and transplant into separate containers. At this point, the roots are not fully developed and can still be rung out of the soil. Just don't wait too long as both root systems will start to entangle and separation of the twins would be nearly impossible without severe stunting.

I did this same process in my rockwool cubes, and I too was a tad bit stoned I must admit. One point I have to somewhat disagree on is what was mentioned about one plant becoming the runt of the pot. From my experience, if both plants are from the same strain, then growth and nutrient uptake rates would be the same if not very similar. The only case where I can see this happening is if you have a high-tolerating nutrient strain, versus a strain that doesn't show rapid growth until 1month and 1/2 into vegetative growth (and only in the case of THE SAME STRAIN, if phenotypes are at EXTREME opposites).

Otherwise the MAIN reason I don't grow twins from seed is the fact you never know if one of them will be male or not. And by that time, the roots are already established as a whole system, and removal could kill the plant. However, starting two clones in the same pot is fair game for all ;)

Thanks AG, OZ, Jay. Going to attempt the micro surgery today. Since they are two different strains it should be fun telling them apart. The Chemo could be male as well.
 
Evening all :) Well, just back from picking Mrs Oz up and the good news is she doesn't need to stand under red light on the corner.....YET lol. Temp has stabilised 85f :) RH needs upping a bit though, it's too low at 41. Think I might do cults trick with the towel again :)

Mick....those little balls are clay pebbles. They were in the bottom of the baby pots I first put the girls in. I've got about 2-3" on the bottom of the new pots too. Great for drainage and pulling air to the roots :)

Jay.....Cheers mate :) Yeah I'm a bit fastidious (new word? lol) when it comes to "clean" :) I'm exhausting straight up the chimney buddy and nice clean cold air is now drawn into tent through a 6" intake fan and 2 x passive intakes :)
 
Just a quick question LA......should I now "soak" my coco? I've only really wetted the immediate area around the girls. Not sure if just water is good or should I water now and feed again tomorrow ? :)
 
Thanks again mate :) I gave them a good dousing just to be safe :) I remember reading on anumber of occassions that you can't over water in coco. Should be ok I think :) I'll give a good 1/2 strength feed tomorrow and see how it goes. I haven't defol'd the underside of the girls yet either lol.......tomorrow's another busy day me thinks lol:)
 
Hi mate...been a manic day lol. I'm in and out the tent every half hour just checking on temps, RH etc. Funny but the girls look REALLY happy ....masochists lol :) I've just given them a feed (autos too :) ) Not sure I've nipped enough off but, if needs be I can PROPERLY top them I guess....(LA is that right? lol)
So buddy, how's little Mathilda doing? :)
 
Ola oz that's good about the girls :) I expect ur right with he topping nothing stopping a propper top if u didn't do it correctly
I think the only reason for an early micro top is little bit less stress

Mathilda is ok. She was wen I left for work at 12 dinner time iv not seen her since she's sleeping now il be sure to check on her first thing make sure she's doin fine and to give the co2 a swish :)
Think il give a 25% strength feed tomorrow
 
Hi guys. Thanks for the reassurances :) My son checked them and reckons I've done 7 "right" but not enough of the other 3. No 8 is a full node further on than the others so whilst 9 have their baby leaves pointing "long ways" down the pots, No8 has them sideways (as per the pics I posted earlier) lol. Looks weird but I'm buzzing :) These little girls are thriving :) Next 3-4 days will settle me down and I'll get a NEW routine going. I'm just praying I've not buggered them up lol :)
Mathilda will love the feed and burst forth with growth and greeness mate :)
How's Git and Super Mollie McFly LA? They were both looking great last I saw :)
 
Successful micro surgery twin separation went extremely well with bot sets growing their roots away from each other. One in each set was already growing thru the peat pot

Thanks guys for the help and encouragement. Now I can breath again.
