Re: Second Grow - First Time Soil - White Widow - Super Silver Haze -Grapefruit -400W
Well everything is still going great, no new problems. My first group is now 41 days into flowering and I have started a second mini batch that is 19 days into flowering. No pix this time but next post will have loads
. These girls are getting bigger than I thought they would, especially grapefruit. I'm so glad I found that seed, she is definitely a strong plant. Wish I knew exactly what she was though, found her in a nug and he just called it "grapefruit". Hoping for grapefruit kush, could really use a strong kush to go with the widow and silver haze. All the ladies are getting fat ol colas and the white widow is definitely showing it's white lol.
Starting to plan my next grow and wanted some input on it. I've gained some respect at a local dispensary and are willing to take me on as a supply client. So next grow will need to not only stress quality but quantity. I've looked into a couple different grows but I think I want to try a hempy grow. Will be using a 4x4 tent and my 6x4 room. Will be using two 600w HIDs in the 6x4, and a 400w HID in the 4x4. I will also be using the hempy recipe of 1:3 as far as perlite and vermiculite. Will be using 3 gallon pots. Will be using Sensi Bloom 2 part nutrients, with superthrive, and need a suggestion for a molasses supplement. More than happy to hear suggestions for the grow or any other input.
From what I understand you can fit 4 3gal pots in a 2x2 square and each pot should yield 2-3ounces each. So I should yield give or take about 3 pounds in the 6x4 room and about 2 pounds in the 4x4 tent. If my math is right. I was wondering if this all sounds about right.
I was also wondering what kind of techniques I should employ to maximize my yield. Was considering trying for just a big cola. From my understanding if you chop off all of the branches at about a week into flowering you should be able to make just one large cola. If I did this would that effect occur and would this be an intelligent way of using my 3gallons or should I change techniques or maybe go with more but smaller pots and continue with that method. Could use lots of help with this one. I really want to try for a flawless run this time
. A buddy of mine said he tried hempy once and he was able to get an ounce per 2L bottle under a 1000w using the stripping method I mentioned. I have a rule with that friend, listen, nod, smile, double check any information lol. Would like to know if anyone else has seen this kind of success. An O/2L would be awesome but I don't believe him and my research has been very iffy info. Also would a strain like white widow work with that type of stripping method? I'd figure some strains just don't grow like that.
Anyways I'll end this here, hopefully I can get some help on understanding this. Thank you all in advance and thank you for following me.
Edit: Oh and I'll be starting some new strains in a few weeks. Going to be getting the following.
Barney's Farm: Vanilla Kush, G13 Haze, Liberty Haze
G13 Labs: Pineapple Express
Humboldt Seed Organization: Blue Dream, ChemDawg, Trainwreck
Should also be getting 2 freebee seeds which I know change a lot so will have to see =D
Also more than happy to hear recommendations for strains.
. The widow is starting to show its name, looks like she is dusted with snow. Bug problem has gone away for the most part, they are here and there but not nearly as bad as before. Anyways ON WITH THE PICTURES!
Mad i Missed most of the grow though
