Sorry for lack of updates, basicly what you would of seen is 5 plants begging me for more space.

So now their is plenty of space and the tops are start to reach back upwards after me manhandling them every day.

Their is plenty of burn damage visible to the tips and i would of removed literally 25 different leaves once they were too damaged.

The maturity of various budsites is vastly different due to the ineffectiveness of the cramped conditions. I'm assuming i can just harvest at different times which by no means is irritating.

The ak48 is stinking of sour cherries, The Cheese is stinking of tropical fruit with a musty undertone. From what i can tell the Big Bang is airing on the lemony/menthol side but it could be a plant between me and the big bang lol.







Big Bang's Main cola,
the rest is a lot more immature.



Ok ive tried to go through image processing step twenty times now. Ill try again some other time.

Dimebag> Thanks for the interest, so far im really impressed by the cheese phenotype that i have, i think with the ak48 its the most usefull/workable structure. There is a great thread in greenhouse forums describing everyones different cheese phenotypes. Worth a read , lots of pics.


So instead of filling it back up with water, you mix nutes in at the same ratio? or do you have some sort of meter that helps you calculate how much you need to add? Is it possible to do this method with just PH drops? seeing as how PPM and PH reflect each other inversely or whatever?

Hey buddy i broke my PPM meter and its kind of useless in a 5 strain grow anyway.

Typically i top up when the water level is at about 25 litres (roughly half) at which point i add a full syringe of a&b 35ml of each. This would add aproximately 300ppm.

Every second topup im adding 40ml Pk 13/14 i would of stopped on time but need to drag it out a bit for the longer strains.

From experience i've also known when i've topped up too much, as when the tank is half full next the tips of the plants burnt.

This can also happen depending on the heat, if its hot they may drink more water then nutes at which point the nutes are more concentrated then when you filled.

Thanks for your interest.

that canopy looks awesome...and that big bang is sexy brings back memories!! keep the humidity extremely low if you got a dehumidifier and lotsa airflow jaja. good luck bro wish i could re rep you but i dont spread around much :joint:

Mr Bitti> Thanks for the thread, im going to register and have a proper look.

Well id say Merry Christmas , but I'm an atheist so ill be shooting Santa with a bear arrow if he gets anywhere near my property.



AK48 Frost Not too stunted from the super cropping, the main buds should be ready at FD55



Great white shark

The gws looks like it hasn't gotten near enough light, *it probably hasnt.. It looks like a 80 day pheno the way things are going, it showed tip burning the same time as the others when i overdid the nutes so i know its not starving. As far as i know their is very little phenotypical variation in GWS.

Hey Mr Bitti.

I'm not measuring humidity however at this time of year where i live its very hot and dry. Without rain I'm talking %20-30 RH intake air during the "night cycle".

Ive measured humidity in every other grow and never had a problem.

Getting veggie seedlings going sucks!

I took clones from everyone but AK48, couldnt get one.

Going to get them ready for mothering duties. Assuming they root.

I had to cut myself something for NYE and the logical choice was an ak48 bud at the corner of grow as it was the most developed

I cut one of ak48's main buds as it was squishing all the other plants branches out of the center, the extra space they get now should compensate slightly.

FD45 AK48 smoke report.

I ended up with 5 grams dried bud, i dried it overnight and then at 60 degrees celcius in my volcano until it lost its moisture.

When i asked my partner to describe how she felt at 5-10 minute intervals she told me she felt very happy and creative in her head at first, and then later very relaxed and stoned.

I was suprised to be in complete agreance, and this is much like the breeder description.

I used aproximately .2g of premature ak48 in the vaporizer.

It had wayy more effect then the apparently fully mature bud i was smoking (commercial bs). I forgot that cannabis was meant to make you feel great not good.


Ive managed to untangle the branches all in the wrong spot since i cut the ak48 branch in the way out.

I now have a decent sized set of colas spread out across , and heaps and heaps of light exposed budsites underneath.

Its pretty clear i can throw stain descriptions out the window after i supercropped. However observing the growth from photos of the individual plants it seems everything has accelerated back to normal now.

The parts of the AK48 that are down on the stem from the supercropped branches are actually almost fully mature, as if unaffected by the supercropping. They are frosty as hell and i doubt ill be able to wait for it to dry before quick drying and vaporizing it :D.

its turning out real nice..... what was the smoke like with no flush/cure/slow dry? could you tell it wasn't flushed?

To be honest with the quick dry, i doubt a flush would be noticeable. Or it wasnt.

I didnt find it too much harsher then the commercial stuff im smoking which im sure is not flushed and which ive demanded my dealer stop buying because i call it "psychotic weed" as in, if you let your head think too much your gunna flip out all angry.

ps: I couldn't find my camera for last shot so when i harvest the ak48 I'm going to do some more detailed shots.

Thanks for the support Buick & eastcoastbud although i have no idea what that thing is you typed, its presence alone is pleasant.


Things are definately moving ahead now. It sucks i might need to buy 2 more ounces to last me the extra fortnight i hadn't planned on. Theirs no good weed to be found.

Trainwreck is looking very sativa dominant, with fluffy spirally buds slowly creeping their way together to make a main cola. Unless it starts rocketing forward in leaps and bounds i might have to sacrifice in order to get some new plants in. Plants that will be the right height after flowering.

Height is your main problem, which you've figured out already...I've been growing in cabs and closets for a few years now...I'll throw a few suggestion at you, use what you like...Trying to offer some help here so...

First off TOO many plants in a TOO small space...Next run try 2 plants (3 might be pushing it) and SGROG them...You'll be able to increase the yield and control height at the same time...Been there, done that...My C99 is a light yielding pheno that will stretch almost 3X...She MUST be SGROGGED and I get EXCELLENT results doing so:


Your running some stretchy strains IMO...Trainwreck is VERY stretchy and in a small enclosure like yours, if you don't SCROG it you'll never get full potential out of it...I can run multiple strains using small screens like this...Then I can change nutes/flush/harvest them whenever I want without screwing with the strains that take longer, ect:


I also use a CMH...Best bang for the buck bulb out there, BARE NONE...Stick with it, get your height under control and you're DIAMONDS!!! Also give Rez's "recipe" a looksie...Works GREAT in hydro, nutes are cheap, and makes it very easy to figure out and correct defeciency issues

Feel free to shoot a PM if you have any ?'s Good luck brother

HighTech,
Your being a jerk on another post, maybe I shouldn’t post any of this. And you being a self proclaimed atheist might not understand grace, but here goes.

First of all I like your cab, kudos!

I have an idea for your flushing concerns. It’s not perfect but better than nothing. Let me back up and agree with someone else that said it would be great without a flush. I know it will be better than anything you have bought.

So plan out one of your full nute changes to match with your AK47 harvest date. Then drain your old nutes and run some ph’ed water for 24 hours. Then harvest AK’s and fill res with new nutes. This should make all remaining gals happy, and an increase in total ppm if your still increasing nutes will be well received after a flush. But then again I am a ebb and flow grower, so just an idea for ya.

I am primarily a medical user. Sounds like that is also part of your needs. Is it the AK48 that you mentioned was from Afghanie. I couldn’t find your reference again. If it is, that’s your ticket. The most durable plant I have ever seen. I know what it’s like to want to grow and smoke 5 different kinds of weed. But the Afghan is all I grow now. I grow pure Aghan I’ll try to attach a picture of my latest veg girls. Their two weeks old today and going to flower next week. And if that works I’ll give you a pic of my other two crops in FD25 and FD52.

What is so great about these girls is all about how you grow them.
You watch your trichomes close and start your harvest when they turning from white heads to clear heads about 50/50. This is going to give you an up headish high, go out and have fun, laugh, sex, and no pain. --- Then wait 7-10 days until your trichomes are about 50/50 clear to amber heads. Smoke this harvest and stay close to the ground, if you stop moving your gonna wake up later wondering what the hell happened. Pain or sleep issues, huh what were we talking about when I nodded off…..

And the best part is the flavor. Hydro, with right additives and flushed, oh My God (you don’t have one). J
Just the flavor as you pick apart a dank oil filled bud to put part of it in your bowl will drive you crazy.

I have a tremendous need for pain relief. I really got messed up a couple of years ago and ended up crippled. My daughter said I have more metal in my leg than in her new little Toyota. Lol
I harvest 30 plants a month, most of the time it is this Afghan.

I bubble hash all of the bottom buds and what ever else I need to make 120 grams. Usually equivalent to 1/3 of the crop, another 1/3 goes to the dispensary to cover grow op costs. And the last 1/3 goes to hospice patients. When I hand deliver that stuff, it makes me so grateful for what I do have.

120 grams into 5 batches of brownies gives me a nice little brownie with 2 grams per serving, we cut them in half and food saver those puppies in the freezer. Each little half will fuck up my wife. I’m 6 foot and 200 pounds so I will eat a whole little brownie, with 2 grams of hash.

Take that one more step. We will make brownies with early harvest for morning coffee. J Get a great up high.
And batches with normal harvest that will let you sleep all night long, the couch lock stuff. JUST KEEP IT LABELED!

I grew in a cab for awhile. My 2cents SOG. No matter what I put in there it ran away. I just tie the top tips down to their own stocks with twist ties and watch is grow a nice sideways S in the stock. I would also recommend 2 or 3 plants. You’ll end up with more weight with less overcrowding. By the time you are done tipping down those 2-3 plants you will have a full, low canopy.

Ok here goes the pics, I’m new at this bbs stuff. The pictures are terrible, just phone camera, and I couldn’t get to the crop at flower day 52.

I think you are spun around regarding the trics and when to harvest...Trics go from clear to cloudy...Then cloudy to amber...You have it posted backwards...Cloudy to clear, and clear to amber, which is not possible

Not sure how experienced hightech is, but I'd hate to have a newb screw up his harvest with inaccurate info!!!

And from my 3 years or so experience growing, yo NEVER want to harvest with vlear trics...All cloudy will give you the sativa skyrocket high, where as mostly or all amber will be couchlock indica-like...Some even go for a 50/50 mix of cloudy/amber...Clear trics are a sign of immature trics...I would NEVER chop if I see more than 5% clear, its just not ripe yet
