The Emerald City

Thanks as always Shed! I was thinkin an NL.

I think i loaded the feed up too much. I know some’uh y’all don’t flush but i put a gallon of 6.0 thru her. This is only happening on all of the older tops. Bout 9 or so.

Please share your thoughts.

No reason not to flush to correct something going on in the soil. The #noflushclub is for folks who don't agree with the pre-harvest flush where you give your plant nothing but water at the end, in some completely unproven attempt to to drive "nutrients" out of the flowers.

Flushing was a good idea here as that looks like a toxicity to me. But whenever I flush I make the last gallon one of mild strength nutes.
 
Thanks shed. These girls have been gettin fed twice a day. This all started with the lights but i think the extra nutes made it worse. Disled back to 1/2 tsp micro bloom calmsg & gro per gallon. Transition feed. See how she does and go from there. PH’d to 5.97
 
In other news, the remainder of the auto tent is cruising right along. In no particluar order there is: Northern Lights, Berry Bomb, Cherry Bomb Auto, & Ultra Lemon Haze.

Greener in other parts of the tent...





they are all looking great, good job man!
 
Greetings and salutations, welcome to my perpetual grow journal! I appreciate you swinging by to stay high!

I've got plants in every mode going right now, so let me just give you a little background. First off all my plants are Sour OG, I picked up some clones a few months ago and just decided to keep the garden rolling with them so I've been cloning to my hearts content! Yes all my plants are clones made from clones. I'll begin with letting you know I'm using the Happy Frog Soil and General Hydroponics nutrients line, starting with Flora Nova Grow and supplementing with all the extra ingredients, kinda makes me feel like a mad scientist. Especially feeding the ladies that are in the different stages, but that's really more in my head than in reality.

My grow space is a 4x2x5 foot tent and a tournament size pool table with an 8 foot T12 fixture. I've also got three LED Lights, 45 watt, 300 & 600. More about that later... I've also got the a carbon scrubber and an inline ducting fan that pulls around 190 cfm. And finally I've got two 6" clip on fans and a GE surge protector timer. I love the timer it allows me to program 1 schedule for the whole week, perfect for this hobby, and it has 4 outlets for the timer appliances like lights and anything else I may want to experiment with.

Starting at the top we have the Tornado of Nutrients who really are what helps to get me and the ladies to The Emerald City.

Now for the midgets, dwarfs, short people, munchkin girls, first up are a few of the clones I've got in the early veg stage, although at their last feeding I did move them up to the 'later growth' feeding schedule.

This is J2 and believe it or not she's the oldest of my clones. Not sure when I pulled her from the humidome, I've done some pruning and shaping so her delayed development is likely my fault.

This is J3 and as I'm sure you're able to assess she is the next oldest clone.

Now this lady here is J4 (my new mother) and renamed Dorothy for all future posts.

My local Hydro guy was looking at some of my pics from my first harvest and asked me if I wanted to trade clones. I told him I'd have to grow him one since I didn't really have any I was willing to part with. This is J8, and I swear to God the first clone I've seen looking this uniform. I've texted him but he's not ready to trade yet.

Now for J6, she is actually in flower and just started showing her hairs, I started the Red Cup Challenge and I think I may be the only one left. Guess I'm gonna win...

Are you wondering what happened to J5? She died, I'm not perfect, moving on... :rip::passitleft:

And then there is J7 lovingly renamed Mercedes by my 9 year old, cause when I first started LST she kinda resembled a Mercedes symbol.

J9, what can I say she's really taken my energy and I know she's gonna be great.She took a really long time to get roots and then getting her out of the dome was like open heart surgery. She is taking her sweet fucking time, I swear to god!!!! Jesus take the fucking wheel!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are you wondering how I came up with the whole J2-9 thing? It didn't have anything to do with Joints. They all have the first initial of there mom/ twin sister, Jane. Here she is at one week into flower. A picture under her skirt, she's all tidied up.

And a picture of her tops, aren't they spectacular!?!?!?!?!?

If you've made it this far I hope you stick around on this crazy adventure in at home horticulture. All advice welcomed and appreciated.
never thought about starting training so young. Good idea.

Those were all clones so the LST was easier. Early training is how you get symmetrical plants from Seed. I mean the plants will grow symmetrically from seed but if you want to shape the plant for maximum buddage then training is good start. My Northern Lights Clone was in LST starting very early on. She's a plant in her own right now! I'm in love with this girl, my only option is what and how I get her into her next home. I've never transplanted from coco before so I'll need to research that a little.
 
I think you should transplant not completely dried out but damp a little. They are in plastic pots? tap it til it slips out ?

I transplanted coco from
Fabric pots to fabrics pots
 
Take me down to the Emerald City where the grass is green and the weed is pretty!

I'd put that coco-transplant question in a coco thread. How about Derby or MadDab or Penny's?

Thanks and thanks! Dabber is not sure, I appreciate honesty.

I was not sure about that King, so same as soil then?

I would I say yes personally .

I can tell you with coco in fabric pots form
Experience that I have roll down the pots slowly going around the circumference until able to pop off the fabric pot from the root ball . I didn’t have an issue really just ripped one of my fabric pots and Vivosun 3 gals they were tough pots too. But I can grab a pic of what they looked like ? I mean they are in my garbage container outside been cold here lately so still frozen since our outdoors lol

So plastic I would think be bit easier to take out soem light tapping around the pot maybe let the outside dry a bit so it slides not slushes ?

When soil is dry is it compact ? I know coco is ?

Trying here bro :Namaste:

Is Kool King, no worries. I appreciate! I saw a monster in 3g's of coco and I'm thinking well if that 3 gallons, what's 5 gallons gonna produce. Now you and Dabs got me thinkin bout droppin her into 10 gallons of coco, man she'd get huge if I did that. Problem is I aint got no place for a lady that size...! I could shove her into the flower tent, the girls would get a bit smooshed but hey it's been tight in that tent before.

As always, "First world problems buddy!"

are you transplanting into a bigger pot with coco?

I'm thinkin bout it, but I'm so tempted to just take a couple clones and let her fly! You got ideas, I like ideas, they spur new thoughts and well... more ideas!
