TheBlaze's Sour Chiesel - Blue Cheese & Black Rhino In Coco

Thanks bud

Yeah, that is definitely the benefit of microbes but does it work with chemical nutes because that is just salt. No organic matter to break down.

Will update with photo of plants just now.
 
Update

Day 29 from seed

Seems I might be on track to switch to 12/12 next friday. There are some roots poking through the fabric pots.

Will give plain RO water tomorrow, as one of the plants is showing signs of too much nitrogen.

Comments welcome

Cheers mate.

I've ordered 2 different strains from nirvana for my next grow. AI and white rhino. Really enjoy WR. A great buzz.
 
I once overindulged in WR and my whole body tingled. Never had that before. Hoping to make it a regular strain in my lineup.

Next grow will be 6 plants, 4 strains.

2 x AI
2 x WR
1 x Exodus Kush
1 x G13 Super Skunk

I can't wait.
 
I crossed White Rhino out to a Double Barrel OG x Raskal OG(m). It is a staple 27% THC producer for those I've gifted it to. I am going to re introduce it into my room maybe in the next 6 months. I am such a harsh critic, especially on myself that I typically underplay things. I named the strain "Space Odyssey" Cuz at first its incredibly cerebral and feels like you have something on your head. Some claim a motorbike helmet.. others a scarf.. but its the next phase that gave it the name. Not couchlock as its most stereotypically known. You still can get up and do things and its not a struggle. I wouldn't dare say it's a motivator, but you will walk around with ease but not with much purpose lol. It's when you sit down or lay down that you melt into whatever it is you are on and its almost like a tingling over your whole body. I had an F1 clone only cut with incredible vigour that produced this incredibly mood enhancing strain I simply named Smiley after a mate of mine who is the most upbeat bloke you'd meet. Never is not smiling and not in a fake "putting it on" way. Always cracking jokes pullin pranks, all in good fun. Anyway I'm rambling. Cheers mate!
 
LOL! It's been pretty quiet in this thread, so ramble away bud.

27% is massive! Even though I've been smoking daily for about 3 years now (never really like MJ before that), my tolerance is not all that high. That's not a bad thing though. 7g can last me a month. I think 27% (especially a cerebral strain) would send me straight to paranoid central.

I think a 70/30 indica/sativa is the sweet spot for me. A solid body stone with enough mental stimulation to put a smile on your face and let you know you are properly baked.

I have been day dreaming about doing a durban poison x trainwreck x some type of powerful 100% indica strain. Would call it velvet hammer. It's just a pipe dream at this point though. At this point I need to focus on getting a larger grow going. Somewhere in the region of about 24 plants in a perpetual grow. Plans are being made, but only for next year. I'm tired of soul destroying 9 - 5 jobs.

Potency doesn't always equal paranoia and potency doesn't always mean it will wreck you more. It's a ratio more than anything and I am finding it more and more so that the mental paranoia is triggered more by specific Cannabinoids and Terpenes. High % in CBN as an example. I have smoked some stuff tested at 18% that made me really anxious/paranoid and had 30%+ and been high as f*ck but calm as can be!
 
Ok cool. Never thought of it that way. Your environment also plays a big role. I hardly ever smoke in a public place. Usually always at home to help relax once the day is done.

I just bought 10L of RO water and then ruined it by adding too much pH down. LOL! What an idiot. Obviously pH down has a much greater effect on RO water than normal tap water. Lesson learnt.
 
I wasn't going to do any training or defoliation in this grow. This grow is just a test run, to see if I can get a semi decent harvest and not make too many mistakes.

Anyway, I got bored and so I spent some time sitting in the tent at plant height. It's amazing what a little perspective can do. So I did some light LST on the 2 bushy plants, to expose all the small undergrowth. On the Blue Cheese I removed the 6 big fan leaves to expose quite a few more potential tops.

I will take photos tomorrow morning and post them up to show what I mean.
 
Good stuff blaze, the least you can do is move a few leaves out the way for better light distribution...all this effort will pay off in the end im sure lol!
 
Lets hope so bud, although I suspect it will improve the yield. I can see about 8 potential tops on the blue cheese which are all exposed to the light now. So it makes sense to remove those big fans. The plant does look a little sorry now though. LOL

No suggestions??

Maybe do a drip feed from a 5 gallon rez?
The hoses and attachments are really cheap. Water pumps are cheap also.

So you actually removed the leaves on the blue cheese...I thought you just tucked them? Im not sure you should remove healthy fan leaves for the sake of light penetration especially so early in the game, these are what store the energy to produce bud so by removing them your only limiting their capacity. Im no expert but I don't think we should be worried about bud sites being exposed to light...maybe someone can say for sure?? I would just tuck them or fold them in from now on, even with paper clips lol!

I Co sign the statement above. Healthy leaves are your friend especially this early in veg. Tuck,bend, Supercrop.
 
Yeah, there are 2 schools of thought on this subject. On some of my other grows I did defol in veg and flowering and it worked well. Still, I can't be 100% sure. We'll have to see what happens now. I only did defol on the blue cheese. The other 2 I just opened up a bit.

Here have a look. They look miserable. Also, I think they are drinking more water now. 1.5L disappears overnight. Will have to up it to 2L at a time.

I was going to flip this coming weekend, but I will wait until the plants have recovered sufficiently before I do so. If not this weekend, then probably soon after.
