8 days update. Sorry for the pictures using my cell phone camera.

Some of my Mandala's
Satori's

Speed Queen's.

White Satin's

Had a bit of a set back due to PH meter off by .6 recalibrated, Also mandela plants finicky had to run lower EC or stunt growth.

5 days since last update.

Satori

[Mr.Jones]

wow you are looking at some beautiful plants!

which breeder you got the PPP from?

 

[CaStoner]

Thanks, These are Nirvana PPP I bought years ago from the UK. High yeilding very potent.

 

[rty007]

I am really looking forward for that speed queen and white satin journal, couse i am thinking of buying those strains.
oh well.. hell i am sorry for a little bit of hijacking but i am thinking of doing a all-mandala grow. 18 plants in a scrog under 1,2 kw

3 x 8 miles high // just for the sake of getin high ...
3 x hashberry // for its truly yummy taste, and helping with my sleeping problems
2 x speed queen // just for a little bit of chillout
2 x sadha // again sleeping pill, but with a little more kick
3 kalichakra // for a little bit of jump start morning and when, i'll finally move to get my lazy ass moving on those lazy days, this one really does the trick
3 satori // it really does help me with my work sometimes
2 x white satin // never really tried it but sounds like loads of fun and quite a good yeilder too...

wow, real cool waterfarm setup. i first started to grow with those, i got a free on from a cool shop owner when i bought my lights and other setup stuff. it quickly to turned to a ten pack with a small pump to recir the rez to the farms.

you have any other pics of how you setup your system, i'd like to see them. i still have my farms but moved on to promix after having water cooling problems and my nutradip monitor went out on me.

your plants look great too, props.

 

[FunkBomb]

That is a very clean looking setup. Great choice of Mandala genes as well. Best of luck during this grow.

Thanks Guy's! I took some more pictures of the setup.
I increased Nutrient flow in the res by adding 2 more outlets, total 3.

Res Plumbing.

Bottom controller bucket has been modified with 3 floats to increase flow, also the float opening been drill out larger, also shows the 3 out flow hoses to the buckets.

Has been redesign from single to triple input. But you can see the 3 floats. I really don't need them because I only keep enough nutrients to fill all the buckets, overflow and controller, floats are used for safety measures incase of flooding if you decide to fill the res full.

Controller needs to be higher than the return bucket since it's gravity flow.

Chiller plumbing from the overflow bucket into the chiller back into the res.

Been mostly at 5.8 to 6.0, trying lower ph to see any increase in growth.

Actually I copy someone else design from a member here using his design with a few added mods.

 

[muddywaters]

cool, tks for the pics. goodluck with your grow.

 

[CaStoner]

No problem, Thanks.
I added another 400w mh.

Almost been 1 month from seeds.

Satori's I can't even see the bucket anymore.

Another shot

White Satin's

Speed Queen's

I'm just hoping for a few males to clear up some space.

 

[colonelcrackers]

Man, those Speed Queens have some FAT ass leaves. Very nice looking setup. I'm subscribed. Have you grown out any of Mandala's gear yet?
Best of luck with your grow.

 

[CaStoner]

Thanks CC, No this is the 1st time growing Mandala's for me, I'm impressed and I want to cross/breed these and also get some clones.

 

[colonelcrackers]

What strains have you grown of theirs and what were your thoughts? Have you done any smoke reports or other grow journals?

 

[colonelcrackers]

God, I can't read. lol. You said you HADN'T grown any of Mandala's strains. What else have you run???

 

[CaStoner]

Well not too many,lol years ago I bought some Nirvana PPP and feminized the last plant and got 30+ seeds, and I also bought some medical MK Ultra found 30+ seeds so I just been growing those 2 out. The PPP was really potent I remember taking 2 bong hit before going to work and I was stoned all day long, and the MK Ultra was some good ass smoke that I wanted to continue growing them.

The Mandala's I just read someone raving about them so I decided to give them a shot.

Thanks

Here is what happens when you cross Mandala genes with other lines. This is Hashberry x Bubblescious (Nirvana):

I have a feeling your Waterfarm'd Mandalas are going to be gigantic.

[CaStoner]

Thanks FunkBomb, Satori cross with PPP sounds interesting I can't wait to start breeding some of my own. I know a lot people don't like us doing this but this just for me, save me from buying off the internet and all the perils that can come from it.

The Satori's are getting huge starting to get me worried, it will be damn crowded in there, still a few weeks from seeing pre-flowers.

 

[CaStoner]

All the plants been top to promote secondary branching and to increase yields. I see a lot of possible clones.

All Shade leaves removed from main stalk a few days to recover and lower EC to 1000 or 550ppm. Important to do this while still in Veg mode not flowering.

Still in Veg mode, only one MK Ultra confirm female, pre-flowers still too small to tell. My Satori's.

From this Oct 28

To today Nov 29 a little over 1 month I usually Veg for 2 months then flip.

 

[FunkBomb]

Wow.... those plants are looking strong in those Waterfarms. I'm sure they are going to yield very well for you.

People not liking someone else crossing different strains is completely irrational. If people didn't cross plants and genes there would not be all the genetic variation that we all enjoy today
