~THE CULTIVATION STATION~

[d4twamp]

Welcome to what I call THE CULTIVATION STATION...

This will be a log for a few different strains and systems...

****DISCLAIMER**** To Big Brother out there watching...THIS IS A MEDICAL OPERATION IN FULL COMPLIANCE W/ LOCAL & STATE LAWS, RAN BY FAMILY COLLECTIVELY...

Of those family members whose Dr. Rec's We are caretakers for, NorCal Woodsman(my bro) and I will be the ones getting our hands dirty...err wet actually...LOL....

I started 4 SNLxNH and 1 unknown bagseed in a DIY Ebb & Flow system in 3 inch net pots, w/ plans to build a recirc. DWC sytem for the two most vigorous... the bagseed which I labeled UK(unknown) was to go into a separate DWC w/ drip ring...and the two smallest SNLxNH were to stay in the Ebb & Flow...

After the roots began to come out of the net pots they started to dry out rather quick, so I made IMHO some needed mods to the system, so that the roots wouldn't dry out in between feedings...

What I did turned out to create more problems for me, but at the same time gave me some of the best results I've had growing in hydro...under CFL lighting no less....

The mods I made turned my simple DIY Ebb & FLow into a Hybrid Ebb & Flow/NFT/Recirc. DWC system....I know, it sounds a lil crazy but the results have been great....

The problems it posed for me was I financially was'nt ready to build everything as quick as they were growing....As much as I love having plants w/ huge healthy root systems, I wish they would have slowed down...but they didn't so now I have no choice but to finish these things in 3 in pots...

The next thing that made it hard was that We had clones waiting to grow feet....once they were rooted they would go into veg for a bit then we would flower everything together....but We ended up getting unrooted clones to save money, so while those were rooting the SNLxNH plants were beasting up...

It's my first time working with this strain(SNLxNH) so I have been expierimenting w/ topping/lst/scrog/fimming/supercropping, to see how she likes it...The results are blowing me the fuck away...

Sorry for such a long ass rambling post but if you know me, you know I tend to do that sometimes...SORRY

More to come later, w/ pix

wut up everybody well if anyone has looked at the blue dragon thread
they already know my bro d4twamp and i put some 4 ft air stones in the 4x4 tray under the 6 in netted pots, hope those feet love that fresh air.
the bubbas have a couple of feet showing already but the so called blue dragon are a bit slower on there feet.
will let you know the progress of those feet.

 

[d4twamp]

Weedy- yes them girls do grow big , I'm thinkin' some SNLxNH outdoor will be some big yielders...

[d4twamp]

Update- All 16 BD clones and 5 Bk's(1 left)and 2 SNLxNH babies(cutz from the Beast)are in the E&B, which we've got running/recircin' at a low level on the pot w/ flexible air diffusers under the net pots...



I have never seen anyone else grow this way, But then We like to go against the grain sometimes...So we will see what happens...


The SNLxNH clone that I have chose to be a Mommy has been given a name say hello to Aurora:


She was chosen over her sisters for her vigor, and the fact she was also the fastest to root...

Have a looksee at the SCROG...Keep in mind this is a lil expertiment, a 3' x18" SCROG over 2 SNLxNH....



And pix of the 2 SNLxNH in RDWC...The beast in the corner has had an atempted fim which resulted in 3 tops...it's been supercropped as well...


Enjoy...I'm goin' to bed, but first
