Strawberry Blue - Blueberry Bliss & Amnesia Haze - CFL Grow

Re: Blueberry Bliss & Amnesia Haze Autos (CFL Grow)

44 Days old- Sorry, i was being lazy and didn't take all the girls out of the cabinet so the pics aren't the greatest. Blueberry's buds are definitely filling in, they are rock hard and stinky as hell. One Amnesia Haze is working on a big main cola and throwing out so many lower popcorn buds its ridiculous! The other Amnesia is just starting to flower (she is the one I referred to as "the runt earlier in the thread) but she has caught up in height with all the other plants. I have been watering every 3 days like clockwork and have used full strength nutes (per Nectar for the Gods schedule for mid-flower stage) and they seem to be enjoying it other then a a tiny bit of burn on a few leaf tips. Strawberry Blue was topped again and is bushing like mad, she did grow a set of deformed leaves i wasn't happy about but overall she looks healthy. I topped all the pots off with sand in hopes the few knats iv been noticing will stay the hell out. First i tried a cup of apple viniger in the cabinet but it didnt take long for the smell to vent into our room and my wife to chew me a new ass. :rofl:

Re: Blueberry Bliss & Amnesia Haze Autos (CFL Grow)

Most CFL bulbs give out 50-60 lumens per watt. I started with eight 65w bulbs and have added a 100w and 3 more 65w as the plants grew. (the 100w mainly covers my photoperiod plant in veg on one side of the cabinet). As for cloning: I cut lower pieces that have at least 2 or 3 nodes, cut at a 45 degree angle and stick directly in a cup up ro (distilled water). Lightly scrape the stem with a razor removing the first layer of "skin" then dip in root-x cloning powder then plant in mix of 60% peat 40% vermiculite. I remove the dome 2 or 3 times per day to give fresh air for about 5 min each time. I dont mist the dome because there is about an inch of water in the bucket the pots are sitting in. This creates the humidity needed inside the dome. I don't have cloning mastered yet and usually get a 50-60% success rate, but this is how i do it.
 
Re: Blueberry Bliss & Amnesia Haze Autos (CFL Grow)

Ive had bad experiences cloning under natural light. I use indirect artificial. Also you may want to trim those bottom fan leaves and that side branch. The more growth up top the more the roots must support down below. Slows plant growth imo. You may notice some even go as far as clipping fan leaves in half. But if this works for you by all means!

Nice grow pitbull!

51 Days old- I have started to flush the smaller Blueberry (which we named "Twiggy"):rofl: The others still have a ways to go.The Blueberry have a strong skunky/fruity smell while the Amnesia are starting to get a diesel smell with a hint of citrus. (that's the best way I can describe it).

59 Days old- First off, may I ask for a moment of silence for my girl "Twiggy". I'm sure we will all miss her:):rollit: Checking trichs she was 70-80% cloudy with very little amber but; i was out of smoke and also running out of room. She was not throwing any more new growth so needless to say it was time for her to go. She was definitely stunted, probably from the 90`s temps i had the first days of the grow? Although her size was affected the quality of her flowers was exceptional. She wont yield much (guessing maybe 15g dry), but the smoke is quite good. The top 3 inches of her cola was quick dried and smoked last night/this morning. Yes, it tasted like wet hay right now but the high was incredible! I'm quite happy with that. I'm thinking the other Blueberry will go 2-3 more weeks while the Amnesia Haze will go 2 weeks past that. (All of these girls were not affected in size as "Twiggy" was).
