Where All the Magic Happens, or Not. LOL

[IE2KS_KUSH]

wow you've been getting some weird mutants, do you think it's just bad luck or genetics?

Hey sorry didn't address your first question, but I dunno? I mean I would chalk it up to me, and something I did as being the likely culprit, just because I tend to make mistakes here and there, but who know? It is strange that it was only the Hashberry that had the freaks come out, no freaks from Satori, popped them at the same time, same methods, same everything. But maybe if I am doing something the Satori is able to tolerate it more. Or maybe it's in the Hashberry itself. Who knows, haven't seen much on Hashberry mutants though, so that's kinda why I think it's something that I did.

OK

OK

Well today was fun. The nursery has a little more room for now, until the last 3 seedlings are put into their new 1 gallon bags. But still more roomy than it was. I am going to go ahead and pull my KS mum out and take a look see if the roots need a trim or what. Acting very root bound I think. That or I have some lockout/def going on w/ her. Honestly don't know the runoff Ph ATM. I do have her trained up pretty well though, and despite the small issue w/ her she is coming along ways to being a bonafied mum.
Still have Hashberry #1 in here as well. This was the only one that really had some more side branching, so I am taking advantage and snagging cuts hoping she is a she and not a he. I have the 2 super freak HB in here still getting ready to go up to 1 gallon bags. I took 4 clones from HB 1 tonight. Cut, Gel, Water method. We'll see, one of them is the top 3 nodes of the plant, so we'll see how that goes eh, never done that before? I need to get some salt and pepper shakers pronto and quite a few of them. Damn. My great idea went to shit never got off the ground unforseen issue killed it. Regardless, I took the clones I could. A couple of the HB that I topped did come back w/ 2 new shoots. Most of them just stunted though, and didn't do anything? Wierd or no? I dunno, first time I have seen that in my very teeny tiny amount of growing and topping. They look good. Just told me to fuck off basically, so we'll see what happens, they are in the flower room now. I am looking at repotting the three runts tomorrow. So gonna get dirty again, make a little mess.
I do have 1 satori in the veg area as well. Just a stragler, looks fine, just a runt and slow starter. It'll go to a 1 gallon as well. Then probably right on into flower. I may bring a lady or 2 back into the nursery if I get a high ratio of females out of what I have in there now just depends. That would be ideal though, then I could work on some clones to throw in behind these seed plants that are really too small/immature to be flowering in all likelyhood. But we'll see what happens. In the mean time I may get ambitious and get the PPP out from Nirvana. Maybe just a couple. Maybe 1 MIS too. And then another HB, or Sat depending on what I get outta these current beans. So it's about to get interesting.

 

[IE2KS_KUSH]

Ok, no pics too late sorry. Tomorrow, for real this time. Very busy night. Put the last 2 HB and last SAT into 1g bags. Repotted my Kansas mum into a 1g bag as well after a trim job on her rootball. I gave her 10ml/gallon Calmag, and 10ml/gallon LK. We'll see what happens. Gave the 3 HB and 1 SAT 5ml/gallon calmag and LK w/ 1 drop ST as well. Same w/ the mum. I am sure the bigger HB that I have are males, a few in the flower room now, and HB1 here in the veg area. They are just silly. Always seems that the "super plants" right out the shoot are always male, for me anyway, so we'll see. Everyone should be good in here for 5 days or so give or take 1. These plants in my veg area, just don't use alot of water in those 1g bags, which is fanfuckingtastic w/ me.
The mum could be ready to give up some more clones here anytime, I am gonna take some more and put them into the dome (yeah same shit one) this time. Still have the others in water, they are still alive. So that's good I guess. Gonna busss out the Rapid Rooters for the next batch. I am gonna just hang tight w/ everyone that is in here at the moment, kinda waiting on some of the other in flower to show, and then I will be able to gauge what to do next. I am itching to get my PPP popped, but I want to be sure I have at least 13 clones ready to go into flower here in the next 3 weeks or so. In the mean time I would like to and I think I will get just 1 or 2 PPP cracked. So you may see them in here eventually. That's about it, again, sorry no pics, late fucking night, I still have to smoke several bowls before I go to bed so I have my hands full as of right now. Posting them tomorrow night, or maybe during the day sometime I promise. Later then.

IE2KS_KUSH, not many people like you eh? no one seems to talk on this thread but you! nah just giving you a hard time, i still chuckle to myself about the dream you had on canncom when u ran outa meds and ur wife wouldnt let u see ur kid or something and u contemplated telling her she was a real class a bitch in your dream last night mm haha still makes me laugh

 

[IE2KS_KUSH]

^^^
Ah ha ha yah I remember that! You know me, I am long winded as hell, and a douche. Making friends everywhere I go LOl. I do for sure have my fair share of folks that don't like me too much here, but goes w/ the territory I guess when you are a crazy guy like me. Thanks for stopping by man! I still peek in over there, but not nearly as much as I used to. I need to more. Been busy though! Take er' easy.

 

[Mr.Bitti]

you might wanna look into using coco instead of soil. its a bit more expensive but if you have ph right, and a decent nute profile they will reward you very nicely

 

[IE2KS_KUSH]

Yeah I know. I keep telling myself that, just have yet to take the plunge. I am still shiny and new to this, so I told myself that I want to master the dirt first. When I was a kid, my dad would always tell me, learn how to throw the fastball for a strike first, then worry about learning to throw the curve ball. I continue to read up on coco, I have tried DWC before, no rez though just 5 gallon buckets. I know that when the time comes, coco it is. Just need to get a large rez and dripper set up for it, and then make sure it works w/out putting 50 gallons of water on the floor somehow. You are right, I do look forward to it, but it's probably a little ways down the road for me.

Well this is what we have left at the moment in the veg area, don't know if I mentioned this, but I did take 4 HB cuts a few days ago and put them in water, 1 was a top cut, first 3 nodes actually, damn thing was too tall.




And mum, sicklyness and all. Plan on taking some more cuts whenever I get around to it and putting them in the dome in RR again.

 

[IE2KS_KUSH]

Took 2 cuts from Satori #2 in the flower room, relocated them to the container that has just 2 KS cuts in it..
It's weird the top clone I took off of my HB that's still here in veg, well I looked at it today, and it was a pretty long clone, well, a pretty good portion of that long stem like collapsed in on itself now kinda looks like a snake, or tail or something. The cut itself is fine, and it stops at a certain point near the top of the clone and looks normal again, I am just gonna let it go and see what happens unless it falls off or something I guess.

 

[lordbudly]

ie2kush geez your lazy, 50 gallon rez? how much are you running?? is handwatering to much? unless you run quite a lot

 

[IE2KS_KUSH]

^^eh ha ha ha, no I am lazy, 50 gallons? I dunno just pulling it out of my ass, would hate to lug all that water up at once, guess I wouldn't have to fill it all the way up..
I dunno, I handwater now, and I don't like it much, but it's what I do. In soil not soo bad, I get a few days in between sometimes more or less and it's ok, but I wouldn't want to be hand watering every single day holy jeeez man. I am still thinking about a rez and drippers for the soil now. I know in coco the bigger the container the less often you water I guess, but I am going the other direction, trying to get a grow to finish in as little soil possible, and get as many shorter plants as I can. My lights aren't very effective very far and basically everything is shit after a certain point due to poor light penetration. Back to coco, I know I could do smaller containers than soil, but I would use more water too, and water more often. No thank you, only way that is happening is w/ like I said, a big rez and drippers and shit, and right now, no money to play w/ that. I will one of these days though. Probably just not anytime soon, besides, I still have to master the dirt! (Which I am far from).
As far as what I am running, I would really like to get to the point where I can have 3 sets of 13 plants going, each staggered 2 or 3 weeks behind the other. That's the thought anyway, who knows what will happen? Right now I am still working on the next batch that is supposed to go in and who knows how that's gonna pan out. I am hitting my block at cloning for sure, eventually I will get to the point to where I can do it consistently, but for now I am still getting there for sure. Always an adventure.

 

[IE2KS_KUSH]

Veg area got a new addition tonight, a top clone from satori 5. Unintentional but eh...whaddya gonna do.

 

[IE2KS_KUSH]

All right, it's looking like I may be moving a few more plants around here, not exactly sure yet on specifics, but none the less it looks like I will have room to implement my dome and some rapid rooter style clones into the area. Gonna take as many as I can from the Kansas mum tomorrow, I may take a few from some others. My other cuts are still in water, still alive, still rooting maybe, or not. I found some coco disks that expand when you wet them, I may use some of those to depends on how many clones I get to take. Hell, maybe I will go ahead and pop 5 of my PPP as well while I am at it. I love working w/ the clones if I could get them going, really easy to veg them in the cups then go to a bag and into flower. Should make for a full day tomorrow, plan to do some watering tomorrow night as well in the flower room. That's about it for now.

 

[IE2KS_KUSH]

Well fuck me running!

Well fuck me running!

I hadn't checked on the clones in a couple days that are rooting in water. But shit, checked tonight, I think all the Kansas clones are in fact rooting w/out question. I am gonna let them go a little bit more than plant them into cups and start vegging them. Now if I can get them from there to here, from the water, to the soil, and to take hold from their. Yeeeeee!
Now I don't wanna use my dome and rapid rooters. Hmmm....what to do, guess I could go hunt down alot of little salt and pepper shakers. Aw, I will probably do the dome for this next batch. But damn, pretty happy to see those roots just now! Got plenty of room in the tent for them.

 

[IE2KS_KUSH]

Well, six Kansas clones still rooting away. Going to go ahead and put them into cups ASAP, and just leave them under the floros like they are now, but in cups w/ soil. Hope the make the transition well. I am so fucking happy first time ever that I have gotten 100% rooting rate from my cuts. Unfuckingbelieve-able! KISS! (Although I did use rooting gel.) As soon as I get them into the dirt, I am taking MORE CUTS BOOOY! Can't wait, I have some excellent looking prospects ready from mum. I do need to get the rest of the HB and SAT outta here as well to make some room for clones. Throw them into flower, maybe up the odds that I come away w/ 4 ladies total outta those seeds. While they sort their shit out there, I will be charging up a handful more KS clones that will be ready in a few weeks hopefully! Now if I could just get my ass in gear and get this shit done!!

 

[IE2KS_KUSH]

Well, decided to wait on potting most of my current cuts. One of them had crazy roots, the others are just starting so I will let them get some more before dirting them. Getting ready to take 6 or 8 clones tonight, rapid rooters, dome, giving that another go. Wish me luck.

 

[IE2KS_KUSH]

WEll, mum is nine cuts lighter tonight, she got quite a hair cut.
I put 8 cuts into rapid rooters and 1 into a small nursery square w/ fflw. One that a seed never made it out alive from. Kinda thought it may not be good luck, but said fuck it, it was handy. I did pot 1 of my other cuts that was in the plain water. She is in the dome as well at the moment. Gonna ease her out and keep an eye on her. No rush, don't wanna jump the gun on her. 2 of the cuts I took tonight were really small, but we'll see what they do. That is all for now. I do still have a few hashberry cuts from a plant that is in flower starting to show. Hopefully it is a female and I can use those cuts to establish some hashberry to put in veg and mum out along side the kansas mum. We'll see.
Later.

 

[EllieGrows]

You take some great notes, hope that the green is growing well.

 

[IE2KS_KUSH]

^^Thanks lady!
Gonna give my rooted KS clone in dirt another couple days in the dome, then gonna try to bring it out and watch it like a hawk, and get it established in the dirt, outside the dome. Give a a couple weeks in that small nursery pot, then whamo, in the 1g bag, and off to the flower tent w/ her. That's the plan anyway.

Hey anyone reading this, if you know.
I wonder, if I keep males, and accidentally cause them to herm due to light stress, is the pollen still good to use? Also, does anyone think it's viable to just put some pretty hearty male cuts into water like I did my KS clones for rooting. BUt just leave them in the water to flower, and drop the pollen, eliminating the need for a gallon of dirt/plant? What do you think, I thought I saw a thread somewhere talking about that w/ some cool pics, but anyway, love to know how yous all keep males and gather pollen, and also about the "herm" thing w/ them? Thanks, later.

 

[IE2KS_KUSH]

All righty, gonna stop fretting over my males and light leaks and herm whatever. Long story short, I found a thread here, read it, and am comforted. No worries, now I need some pollen. Still don't know about just cutting and using cuts and chucking the pots, will decided that soon enough I guess. Probably wait a while and see how these go first w/ minimal water, no nutes, little light, poor circulation, and every morning I am gonna drop a big ol' bear shit right there in the room w/ them probably lol.
