The Perpetual Healing Garden - SweetSue's Joyful Return

[Habitual]

Dear Sue

Thats A nice Drain to waste/wicking rig you built Sue.

Reps on your first hempy harvest. 25g on how many liters? Fyi A 10L will grow trees anything larger comes at a higher cost and diminishing returns...

Either way you did very well my mini hempy average is 15g / liter of media with most autos I have done on another.net. Pm me I can give you the keywords for it in private if you like.

Going to do a seed run with some affy med auto regs; 2 liter coco hempy says eye. Sweet seeds black jack is one link in the genetic chain its IBL now.

Are you going to do the oc+ thing or repeat what you are close to dialing in already?

Here are my 4 regs day 0 still .

Hab. = Son of Hempy ????

Oh and The dahli hempy has been around since the 70's before 420 existed so not sure it's A DB method @Tead although crf hempy could be "lucky 13"?

 

[SweetSue]

Awesome idea. Pitting 2 of DB's growing methods against each other. Fun.


So, I'm always concerned about rot growing in those external res configurations. They're exposed to light. In my hot-ass world, I'm really adverse to light getting to the medium... I've had problems in that area.
Of course, I see it working fine for Weas and others, so I might have to stop tossing that opinion about. I've never tried the external res on a hempy, so I have no actual experience with it.

Morning Tead. I intended to make you smile broadly this morning. Was I successful?

I've had good results blocking the light from the perlite with the weed locker cloth, and the piece I used to wrap the res is triple-layer. I think this'll solve the light dilemma. Without that cover this would likely be doomed to failure.

I'm not trying the Osmo this time, but giving the bottled nutrients a second try. I'd like to figure this one out before I switch gears.

So, to clarify, start out at 1/4 dose and gradually work up from there? Cal/mag addition of some sort in every watering. I have Calcium Carbonate powder. Anyone know off hand how much one would add per gallon? If not I'll chase it down.

Morning Hab. I like that line in your signature "You get what you give." So very true. I've always considered unconditional loving to be the best thing to be giving.

How exciting that you're running 2ltr hempies! The hempy Tead refers to is a journal Doc ran a while back using Osmocote as the nutrient base. It was the beginnings of his search for the kit, and it's still our standard around here on using Osmo with a hempy. Yeah, this hempy thing's been around a long time. We're just all re-inventing the wheel, and having a fine time doing so. I'll be working the bottled nutes again, only this time I'll actually do it right. I might regret that in the end. Lol!

My hempy was probably equivalent to a 2ltr size, so that means I did well for my first run. Thanks for the clarification. That left me feeling right proud.

Thanks for the heads up on the limitations of size. I can see how that'd be. I'll definately PM you. I'd like to see autos done in a hempy successfully in a manner other than my stumbling around in the dark to get to a jackpot. Sometimes it helps to be as well-informed and well-trained as it helps to be lucky and blessed.

Daily Update: Carnival #2, Day 92

Good morning everyone. Let's check in on the star this morning before I run out to find that coconut oil.

We'll be watching this, trying to keep it a tad warmer over the next couple weeks. There's only so much control I have over that.

What I care about is flower production, and it appears I'll have nothing to worry about there.

She's up an inch to just around 16" As I recall, my first Carnival barely stretched after flipping. It appears this one's going to mirror that experience. It matters not. The branches will fill out nicely and I won't have to be concerned with getting too close to the light.

All ready for your inspection Duggan.

 

[SweetSue]

Once again...

100% success with the clones. These took 12 days, and they have better roots. I wish TOAST lived closer so he could actually feel this.

The hempy pot's all ready to go. Just trying to figure out how to get such minuscule measurements for nutrients without mixing up a gallon. I'll have her planted within the hour, as well as the others. I don't have any Kit soil ready to go, so this batch is gonna be LOS. Lots of drenches to get done today as well. Making brownies with the street drugs (unsmokable ) before I start the oil infusion.

It's gonna be a busy day at SweetSue's.

Morning indeed Sue ... must get coffee , must get to the coffee ...

No thats awesome results I would do the same run again aswell no stumbling around in the dark! Take credit it is due dear Sue. You grew in an inert media and had only a minor nute burn while battling stress from no weed a street deal and BORG ENJOY. koolkat or 420ified T12 mr krip TS and others only got 15g/2 liter from clone no veg sog in 2 liters dialed in... you did Superbly Kind Lady!

I read Docs thread back when it was Live under a pseudonym... I referenced the "lucky" but not so "lucky queen" (Trans plants or whatever the PC name is for them now) strain he started it with, going 12/12 from seed side by side in dirt. His Grow convinced me to try oc+ and I use it on soilless and gorilla grows to this day, although it's changed now and made by the japanese not scotts. I was only referencing my own work elsewhere as I have no grow here yet as Hab hmm though we have met before :surrender::surrender:.

I tend to grumble and grump sometimes like my father did when alive. Up till last week and over the winter, spring, summer I was waiting on mri and other nuclear scan results that indeed added to this Charm I have .

ledrf or grow pot cheap on here does Hempy VERY WELL with Epic yields in fact, using flora nova bloom only in coco! As for size an average grower like me can pull decent results from 10 liters up words of 300 g / plant with royal queen NL auto as an example, he ledrf or GPC grew 3 pounds with it lol.


Peace Joy Love, Sue! Grow Well

Peace Joy Love, Sue! Grow Well

I like talking to you. Thank you for helping me to accept my own gardening abilities. The guys that surround me can be a bit intimidating to someone so new to the game. I forgot to PM you in my excitement. *giggle* Let me do so now.

The hempy's back in business. This time I'll keep better track of the nutes and document more thoroughly, so I don't get lost again.

 

[Habitual]

I like you too Sue.

You could always mix up full strength in a gallon then dilute it to 25,50,75% with h20 in a smaller container? Citric acid does well as a ph down and a cheap alternative to get 6.0ph

Hab, Weaselcracker's been playing around with lower ph, down around 5.2-5.4. I stumbled into his room in the middle of the night, so I can't remember if it was hempy, but I'm pretty sure with those ph numbers it must have been. What he's seeing is more vigorious growth - dramatically improved - with the lower ph numbers. Were you aware of this? I've been keeping my PH at about 5.5-5.6 fairly consistently.

I have PH down on hand. I just knew that I wouldn't be going on with hempy growing, so I gave the bottle of PH Down away. Lol! Try to purge your possessions. See how many things you didn't need for years that you now have to replace. Hahaha!

I figured out the minuscule amounts I needed and had the perfect container to mix up in. I only need a bit less than a quart of nutrient mix for a week's worth of watering. If I mix it up like that it'll force me to pay closer attention.

You grow autos in hempys? When I started with my DDA I wasn't thinking about it being an auto. The initial root-building process almost had me throwing in the towel, and then she gave me that fabulous harvest. I can't ignore that. In all honesty, this harvest with bottled nutes blew every other previous grow of my favorite DDA out the window in potency, density of buds, flavor and color. I'm still in shock. This is not what I was led to believe. I love both of my soils, and have no intention of abandoning either one, but this gives me another tune to play with, and I find I like it.

I just want it all. Is that too much to ask?

Cloning Adventures: Round Two, Carnival #2 clones

I swear guys, this produce bag trick of TOAST's is some serious shit. Look at these roots! I only opened these bags three times before today and only added water once. The little self-contained atmospheres in these bubble bags appears to be the perfect environment for building clones. He uses fancier supplies - Clonex and more expensive rooting hormone where I use aloe water and cheap rooting hormone - but we get similar results, as in 100% success. You can keep your bubble cloners. I'm sold on TOAST.

They'll sit here for a couple days before I stick them under the CFLs. I may move the CFLs into the tiny closet in about a week or so and flip the Carn #1 clones so I can get them out of the way before the hempy girl will be ready to flip. I'll be flowering her under the MarsHydro panel's in the clone area. How nice to have that flexibility.

While getting these potted up I realized I hadn't topped the two Carn #1 clones in LOS with some vermicompost. I took care of that before I put the bag away. All's well in SweetSue's garden. Time to make those brownies.

I just realized I haven't eaten since breakfast. Sometimes living alone is more challenging. Remembering to eat was never this difficult when Dale was alive.

 

[Habitual]

I tend to be stiff in my science and have not experimented with ph much outside of 5.8-6.2 in hempy, either with coco or the og mix 25:75 V. I always start at 6.0. I find what the strain likes and it becomes static. I dont do dynamic grows well, I use scale and syringe as tools to make life easier or repeatable. All I run is autos now and I have great reg seeds in cbd, thc, indica, sati and hybrid. I dont smoke and donate a great deal of my crops to those I love. I have looked in on WC from time to time since his solo cup potm, I like what you are referencing as vigor in plants and women is this desirable???? lol . OMG did that get said aloud ? I'll take the suggested reading to heart.

I thought you had decided to slip los into the past re borg?

Hab.

Ps yup some put shade on what they dont know, and it takes Sunshine like yourself to bring it to the light. Bottled nutes are not all the devil Only AN nutes lol . What are you using?

Oh and Pps ; Please feel free to stumble into my room at any hour, I have boxed wine, solo cups and some Sweet seeds strains jared and on the cure for well over a year.

The Borg threw me, I'll admit, but my love of the LOS runs deeper than any Borg infestation. Pulling two exemplary harvests back-to-back took most of the sting out, and I accept full responsibility for the infestation. The HB soil works so well for the photos I can't walk away from it, the LOS is so easy that I'd be foolish to abandon it and the hempy is just my latest little diversion. I'm using General Hydroponics Advanced Nutrient System. Is that, by chance, the AN you referenced? They were easy and inexpensive. Obviously they were more than up to the task at hand.

One of these days I'm going to do all the spaces with Sweet Seeds.

I haven't had a single hit or capsule of a THC-dominant med all day. How does this happen? I have an hour until the girls pick me up for our walk. Let me see what mischief I can stir up with a certain Dark Devil.

 

[Habitual]

No I use and recommend GH nutes. You cant go wrong with flora nova bloom, micro and bloom as a two part 8/16 ml 6/9 for coco even just powder maxibloom all are lucas ish. As you learned you dont need all the hyped up overdrive pk boosters. look forward to your carnival hempy success next . An is "big mike" at advanced nutrients ie ph perfect and sensi lines.

Your mastery at what ever tool you use to grow meds is a fine example and shows your moty is a well deserved recognition by our peers.

enjoy the walk.

I'm with you with the gh line I also use there root enhancer and there koolbloom for flower and I've added liquid karma by botanicare never giving my girls plain water ever not since germination this week I've started a foliar feeding of the liquid karma as well and it seems to be just what the doctor ordered

Double post. I left the next one in since Stage had already liked it.

Sorry guys. Haven't had this happen in a while. Or have I and I just don't realize it...........?????

Daily Update: Wednesday, October 26, 2016

Good evening everyone. Ready to take the daily tour? Follow me.

The LOS pots got a simple aloe drench with a splash of Agsil16 and another splash of Ful-Power (5ml and 10ml per gallon, respectively). While I had the autos out I took some pictures.

Early Miss (Day 43) She's eating up her lower leaves and starting to really turn the pistils rusty. She still has almost two weeks left, so we should witness some impressive swelling of the buddage.

Train Wreck Auto (Day 5)

Back in the tent.

I mixed up three cups of nutrient mix, using just under 0.3ml of each of the three components. I just realized I left out any Cal/Mg supplementation. I'll take care of that with the next feeding. They look good, don't they?

And that's all she wrote. Yeah.... Not quite. Lol!

The Northern Lights Auto's being resistant to germination, which'll turn out to be a good thing. I'd prefer to not start the next plant until next weekend, to get into the perpetual flow with the autos. Once I get this schedule set the auto tent goes on its own type of auto pilot - two weeks out from a projected harvest you start the replacement.

The two chosen Carnival clones will go into the auto tent to veg while the rest of the clones get flipped and flowered. As soon as they're done the hempy girl should be ready to flip herself and she can follow the clones. I just need to decide when to start the CBD Critical Cure. She's gonna have to be slotted in there between Carnivals. I may decide to continue using the bathroom space for an auxiliary flowering space to take the pressure off.

That 4x4 tent would be such a godsend. Not an option here though.

I think I'm close to having the flow back in my grow. A few more details and it should settle right down.

Alright guys, I have a bong loaded with DDA2. Damn! This stuff's unbelievably good. I'm wearing myself out with it. Haha! I'll catch up to you all later when I go wandering through the threads.

 

[Stage]

Awesome update as usual.
You take this....
I'll take that....

Why thank you.



Here, have another

 

[ShiggityFlip]

I forgot to answer you. When in pain or nauseous I reach for the Huck Kush V3 (pineberry). She works wonders. Will have to flower a few real soon. I need to always have her on hand. Good night Sue!

 

[Tead]

Morning Tead. I intended to make you smile broadly this morning. Was I successful?

So, to clarify, start out at 1/4 dose and gradually work up from there? Cal/mag addition of some sort in every watering. I have Calcium Carbonate powder. Anyone know off hand how much one would add per gallon? If not I'll chase it down.

Yes... tho I suspect not on the morning you imagined.... but it matters not.

I dunno about the CC powder. I went with epsom salt and milk (1tsp each/gal)... but bought me some fancy calmag juice a while back. Get some calmag... it's just easier.

We gotta go over your nute line again... I forget your magic. I see there are many more posts in your thread I've not hit yet... I bet there's some babble about it in there.

The published grow schedule from Dyna-Gro has week1 plants at 4ml/gal (365ppm) bumping up by 2ml increments every week with a top end of 10ml.
I use a 1/2tsp (2.5ml) grow juice for all my water (cloning, sprouting, flushing new medium, everything). My plants all start in the 1/2tsp mix. I think of it as the appetizer I serve before the meal starts.
I ramp up from there, bumping by 1/2tsp or 1/4tsp increments watching closely for signs of burn.
I'm very flexible in the whole affair and don't do anything based on timelines.... just depending on how the plants are doing.
