SOG - 2 Litre - Perpetual

[cmon]

Hello I stared my grow on November 22 2015. I am doing a SOG concept similar to my Hempy grow. But this time no Hempy because I had issue with deficiencies. Still am using 2lite bottles with my favorite dirt mixture. I am growing in a 32.5inx32.5in tent with a 400w hps. Water is RO. Nutes are GH used with Lucas Raitio. Finally got a quality Blue Lab pen. Alternating adding 4 and 5 plants each week tell I get to 8 weeks/36 plants. Aiming to harvest every week if plants take 8 weeks to flower. My plants are of Clones coming from local clubs. Strains very. I took the glass off of my reflector and got a kick ass (but pricey) Hortilux bulb to help get more light to the plants. I think the buds could be denser but not stretching like last time.

This are pretty sweet small girls.

Thanks Thould96. I added 4 more plants bringing the total to 31. I am not going to be able to fit anymore plants in, but got close to the 36 I planned. The first batch is due to be ready soon.

Really cool idea. I was blaming small pots for some stunted Siberian girls but looking at yours I think it was more my incompetence

Will take notes and apply to my next try

Thanks WOLFtick3t. This SOG concept is by no means original. I'm a big copycat, but whatever works. I am worried about the small pots too, but I was able to keep a Mom in 3/gal pot indefinitely. Everything is working out good so far. I think the key is the nutes. Right now I start feeding after the second week with 1/2 strength lucas. Next feeding its 3/4, then full. I follow the water, water, feed concept. My dirt is from a local nursery, call GreenAll by E.B. Stone. I mix in extra earthworm castings, this fertilizer called Jobes (available at Lowes, got the all-purpose 4-4-4), and perlite for drainage. Hope that helps!

UPDATE

Everything is going well. Some plants show signs of heat/light stress. I moved the light up a little. Shown below are my seven distinct groups ranging from week one to week seven.

UPDATE

I got a little antsy, and picked the first batch a little early. Everything is going well. I am going to add more plants this week.

 

[cmon]

UPDATE

I added five more plants and moved my tent around. Meet Critical Kush. Total from first round was a disappoint to say the least 15g off 5 plants. Moving on, round two same strain, yield looks slightly better maybe 20gs. The other batches seem to be doing better, taller, fuller and fatter. I think I was just shaking off the rust.

Lots of interesting info and experiments in B.A.R's highly recommended current journal, who grew in 2 litre pop bottles for ages.

UPDATE

Harvested round 2. Hoping for around 20 grams, that's pretty low but hey beggars can’t be choosers. JK. I'm going to work on my technique. I'm dealing with some PM, I have not sprayed anything yet but am thinking neem oil or baking soda. Any input would be appreciated. I washed this rounds harvest following the directions on the bud washing thread because of the PM. The last pics are of the full garden and batch 3 to be harvested next week. ( yes, that's a F'n motor on my bike)

UPDATE

I am going to let this batch set a little longer. They look good. I forgot what the stain is, never wrote down the full name, only abbreviation. AC now stands for Amari Cooper, because the Raiders cant move. The next batch is Blue Dream, looks good too. Only issue is the Critical Kush. That B**** stretched so damn much. F'ing everything up bruh! I sprayed neem for the PM and seems to be working. So for now Ill just be smokin the Candy Land from the first two batches.

Amari Cooper

BLUE DREAM-

I didnt even top this bad girl!

CRITICAL KUSH- !!!**

 

[36Gr0w]

Very nice looking buds. Any chance AC = Animal Cookies?

 

[cmon]

Good thinking 36Gr0w. I didn't even think to try to figure out the strain. I think your spot on. AC= Animal Cookies. Dang I had high hopes for Amari Cooper the strain. O well.

 

[36Gr0w]

Amari Cooper is a stud!

 

[cmon]

UPDATE

I harvested and been smoking on the Animal Cookies. Gets better everyday in the jar. Blue Dream is up next and is the best looking round to date. Thanks for the Amari Cooper love bruh.

UPDATE

Picked the second and final round of Blue Dream. First batch yielded over 36 grams from 5 plants. Getting closer to my 10g per plant goal.

UPDATE

Picked the next round. Strain is OGKB, whatever that stands for. Not a high yielder but quality. I also made some cookies with my sugar shake, and tried two, its just kicking in. Working great. Followed these instructions!! Everything is going well. I did order a new bigger 4x4 tent so I could start to make my own clones. Slowly I'm gonna get two 400 watters in that tent and make my current tent the mother tent.

Thanks rhetorrikz. I picked the second round of OGKB. Everything is going well except the yield. Way down from the good old days with the Blue Dream. Next up Kritical Kush.
