..been a long time, sir!

and may i say, you have never failed to impress!

====

Regarding the Triploids and its clone...what do you think accounted for the initial mutation? Stress? Genetics? or any other variable?

Shady · 02-20-2010, 01:20 PM

Sup sfzoo! Thx bud and it's nice to see you around... Yeah, it goes against logic that the genetic code wouldn't be carried throughout the entire plant. I can only think that it may have been due to my cuts of the shell during germination or LMAO, the orig was a Siamese twin and I cloned just one leg of it...

You've got some super happy plants shady, keep up the good work!

It tends to kill a few with both products, but if this is a legit cut then I'm gonna push her a bit more hard cuz her bud sites are tiny which may be due to too much topping and supercropping... I think I may hit all of Section A with 8 ml/gal of Hammerhead today and 8 ml/gal of Bud Candy. What do you think about those amounts?

Ya i understand about the pistils dying back..the sprays tend to do that...

As for the doses....by now, id be hittin em with 10-12 bud candy and 10ml of Hammerhead, or whatever 200ppm hits. Its about 2 tsp...but ya you def look on point man.

For the small sites...hmm idk bout that either. Once i made a mistake of topping ALOT on this one plant and it made all my sites super small, but yours dont look like you'd have that problem...the cut looks sick tho, well potentially. I just took some cuts of my 707 for the run after this Geisel etc is done...If its good enough ill gladly pass you some cuts to replace this one if it doesnt make the cut, lol. Not intended..haha

Thx Erudite! I can def say that it's due to not overfeeding and the fact that they really haven't moved except for Section A's solo shots a while back. Seemed like I tore up quite a few leaves in Round 3 moving pots to the bedroom for waterings and feedings... Both sections this round are on their own trays so I just water/feed in place. So much easier and a huge time saver. On another note there is a huge vapor pressure difference on the plants nearest the fans... Their lower leaves are gettin' whipped around.

Thx bud... I've got that trim frozen and ready.

. Yeah I'd def appreciate the cuts down the road, and I'm working on gettin' some lights soon... the 707 had a few more white hairs poppin' in select spots, but I'll see how things go. shit I didn't see your post until now and have already fed Section A with the 8 ml/gal on the BC and HH... I might add 2 ml when I water them later this week.

Glad you like the updates bud... I'm trying my best not to update so frequently cuz I'm runnin' out of ideas and angles to keep things interesting, but I like to respond with photos as much as possible. BTW, nice pickup on the T-5's and I look forward to seeing your new journal...

Thx ganjaguy! I'm excited to find out if I'm growing the legit 707 Headband... It will also be interesting to see how my 2nd run of the Double Underdawg and Chemdawg's Sister turn out.

Shady Update

Okay, yesterday’s feeding went well. Here’s the numbers:

Shady Bloom Feedings…

Section A
Summary of Monday’s Soil Section Feedings... 2/20/10
The resulting teas are as follows in ml/gal: CM:3/BC:8/HH:8/PBP Bloom:10 = 1018 PPM, 6.27 pH *Start of Wk #7

Section B
Summary of Monday’s Soil Section Feedings... 2/20/10
The resulting teas are as follows in ml/gal: CM:4/BC:5/HH:6/PBP Bloom:10 = 920 PPM, 6.40 pH *Start of Wk #5

707 Headband with a few more white hairs…

A quick shot of the 707 HB in Section B for comparison…

Master x Bubba continuing to swell quite nicely…

And since I won’t be growing the Mystery Kush 2 again, I figured she deserves a few shots…

Okay, I plan on watering the soil plants in the Shady Veg Station tomorrow with a decent dose of CalMag. Here’s the bottom shelf after a lot of topping and trimming…

The future mothers on the top shelf are making progress although the Purple Kush in the center may someday be replaced…

Another shot of the ebb ‘n flow tray’s flood depth on the seedling side, which is about 2” higher than the drain side with all the larger clones…

I have also topped all the clones on the drain side to keep the canopy level with the lights…

Finally got some roots poking out on the Double Underdawg 3’s clones…

Here’s the Dud 3’s top…

Gonna wait another day and then plant all the clones into the ebb ‘n flow and select a couple for soil, to replace the mothers on the bottom shelf…
