Ya Blue Dream is a heavy yielder but average smoke IMO. How was the yield/smoke on the AC? I've heard great things about ogkb but haven't tried it myself. Have you considered upping pot size with two 400w in a 4x4 tent? Maybe try a few 2 or 3 gallon pots and see how it goes, yield should go up though. Looking good!

Hey 36gr0w. The smoke on the AC was very potent. Smoked with some guy who only ''Dabs". That guy got high as f***. Yield was 20g off 4 plants. I would do a few plants and SCROG, but I really want to be able to harvest every week. I plan on fitting 80 or so in the new tent. All the same strain so I really lock them down. Strain is BC Bud Sweet Tooth. Oh man I cant wait.

UPDATE
Progress on the new tent. I have one 400 ready and booster fans on the way. Going to start with one light and add the other with my next paycheck. But at least now I can start the moms. Nothing to harvest this week.

Love your style bro! You have some very nice stuff 
I'm doing a sog at the moment, feel free to check it out...and before I forget, gotta say I'm digging the bike! Looks like you're the diy type as well... Some call me a hoarder, I just can't see throwing anything away...I enjoy coming up with new and unusual ways to utilize my "junk" laying around 
I'm a little late..but if you got room for one more, I'll be glad to hang around

S'up guys
rhetorrikz I am watering by hand now. It’s terrible. I have a little 3x3 watering tray. And I take each plant out and water them in the tray. Then I have to dump the tray water in the bathtub. With my new tent and table that wont be an issue going forward. I hope. Also I did chop a bunch of plants. Rounds: Critical Kush-8, Critical Kush-9, 9lbs Hammer, and I think the round you are referring to is Gorilla Glue, all received the chop.
Tarheel Grower thanks man. Very kind words! The Bike kits are super cheap online. I got mine for 150 with shipping included. I also changed the sprocket to give her some more top end and a new exhaust. Got 38 MPH flat land with ducking. lol. But she cruises pretty good at 25-30. If you got a mountain bike lying around, make a great frame. You got front row seats and when I get off work ill check out your grow brah! Can't get too lazy!

Hey there cmon, i'm glad to see you're still at these 2L buckets... I was routing for you in your first hydro grow, and have a few questions. I would have liked to do this in a private message, but am unable to do so thus far... I don't mean to hijack your present grow by any means. your grow medium looked like a possible perlite/vermiculite blend, can you recall the makes? and I caught part of your nute line-up, but wasn't sure if it was all of it. can you remember what you were using and/or how much you were using? Koolkat/420fied had it figured out pretty good then disappeared. HighDive/12Twelve set the 420mag world on fire with these.... Mr. Krip... I'm convinced they work, any chance you had some trace elements in your medium that was buffering? would you be willing to try again? using the same combination you were using, but boiling the medium with RO to make it more inert?
Re: 2014 - Hempy - SOG - Sweet Tooth
My run off. I flushed with plain ph'ed water and caught the run off. Taken off the First and Second batch, that are four days apart. Been feeding with 8/16 Lucas with cal/mag. My ppm seems a little low, but I have never tested it before.

8/16 lucas? is that 0-8-16? along with calmag? i'm not sure I can refer you to another blog site, but i'm sure this is legal... What is Lucas Formula, and how do I use it? (scroll down near Coco Coir, inert much like perlite/vermiculite)
by the photo's it looked like a magnesium and/or potassium deficiency
https://www.420magazine.com/gallery/data/500/cannabis_leaf-deficiencies31.jpg
remember all that fun you had with your ph pen. the extra $100 can make the difference between a noob and a master.
https://www.420magazine.com/gallery/data/500/pH_chart7.jpg
note by the chart that 5.7-5.9 is the only range that unlocks both calcium and magnesium. and then by Lucas' website, very possible that too much phosphorus created a salt buildup, locking out Ca, Mg, and even K.
its good to see you back at it!

SolutionLogic you just brought be back to my childhood. ok Lets see It was a 3 to 1 perlite/vermiculite mix. With perlite being 3 parts. Not sure about the brand. As for the nutes, I was following koolkat us Gerneral Hydroponics Flora Series. I attempted to mimic koolkats feeding but only had limited posts to go by.
""From the start I have used a modified GH 3 part schedule. Since I have used the basic 3 part system
with no enhancers, I have had to up the recommended dosages a bit to get the feedings into the proper PPM range.
I put my clones straight into a 12/12 schedule and my feedings look something like this:
Week1: 500 PPM
Week2: 700 PPM
Week3: 800 PPM
Weeks 4-5: 1000 PPM
Weeks 6-10: 1200 PPM""
----
""I feed them daily with every watering. Every 7th day I flush them.
So to answer your question, my week looks like this:
Mon Tues Wed Thur Fri Sat Sun
FEED FEED FEED FEED FEED FEED FLUSH""
Tried to follow that. Week one be 2.5 mil of each part. I did not use Lucas with the hempy. Then used the the chart on the bottle to try to match the ppms. But I didn't know the hempy mix was similar to coco. I'm gonna have to do a couple hempy plants on the side and use that modified Lucas or similar. Boil the mix in R.O water you say. More inter. I have so much to learn. I did invest in a blue lab ph pen. Koolkat did disappear. I am going to look up HighDive/12Twelve. I don't know who you are or where you came from but Thank you.

no problem, I got a little bored last night at read sqwheels 2L hempy's, was up till 7:00am this morning... 420fied chimed in quite a bit on the grow, and the author to the journal was successful in one of her first journals at replicating good results.
Sqwheels' Perpetual 2L Hempy + Moms
in her comments, she has helpful links to help with plant stress.
I don't know if boiling the perlite/vermiculite would make it inert or not, just thought it wouldn't take much to try. one thing this grower did, was used a fine and a course grind perlite. I have seen trace minerals/buffer agents in perlite. Their theory on 2 kinds perlite was the one would hold onto nutrients longer than the other one. While a statement raised was a dispute in feeding schedules, 420fied was convinced that if you waited slightly longer to feed, that the roots would stretch that much further looking for food(creating even more of a winning recipe). and after watching sqwheels journal, I wonder if most issues were solved with a simple flush. she later ran into issues, 3rd string attempt, but ran into temp/RH issues, and I question if she used the same medium all 3 times.
He flushes between feedings, never passes 1100ppm, and winds it down below 400 for the harvest. That's Coco Coir, conditioned with calmag. and slightly alkaline rockwool cubes, ph'd down! and fed at 5.8... where as you'll see 420fied recommended 6 for the perlite/vermiculite, assuming your medium is inert. easy way to tell... take your medium with nothing in it, not even roots, and test the run off. just a heads up... all the people that did this in the past no longer post here, in twelves journal he made it known the cops were onto him, in 420fied, they built a massive expansion and were never heard from again. be careful. unless you're like me and have a doctors note! I love a liberal Canada!

I moved to the other tent because the moms just popped. Seeds not feminized so hoping for a couple girls.

Oh how i have a special place in my heart for 2ltr sog armies. (Thanks 'fied)I've run them for 2 years. Still use them as bumper crops. 64 2ltrs to a 3x3 tray. Oh by the way, hello Cmon. One tip, Root mass will determine nug size in 2ltrs. I used to go straight from clones into 2ltrs to flower, was averaging 3-5 gs a 2ltr. 5 days to one week of veg then to flower, up'd my average to 4-7 gs a 2ltr of sativa dom hybrids. The Pineapple Express runs I did averaged 5-9 grams a 2ltr. Big up bro!
keep the 2ltr army spirit alive.
