back in town just in time!!

So i went out of town for a few days and forgot how quick these girls grow so i came back to a little leaf burn the girls where right up on the light grill i set up and it was alot warming this past week here and i couldnt adjust the room temps not being here but hey i wont have that problem again as i adjusted the lights. the violator kush have a little nute burn as they are a bit younger but other wise things are looking great the masterkush are at 23inches and 26 inch tall and nice and bushy

some reconfiguring and BAM a day away from 12/12

So after going thru a few threads and all i came to the fact that i needed a bigger air pump thanks Hydrosun for all the great info on your threads big up! and decided to cut the air diffuser on the rez off and allow the waterfall effect to bring DO thus allowing more bubbles in roots zone. well anyway the girls are at 32 and 33 inches tall and smaller ones stand at 12 and 14 inches. and i figured i would start flowering now im so impatient couldn't wait another 12 more inches. i need BUDS!!

here are a few pics check them out.

okay now day 5 of flowering

okay now day 5 of flowering

In such a rush to get these girls going I skipped the transition period even though I was running it that way with the nutes so anyway I'm in flowering now and after a bit of training I have a pretty even canopy on the masterkush side so hopefully multiple colas

The violator Kush and powerkush are looking good hopefully we will have multiple colas

Here are a few pics...

Day 11 flowering

Day 11 flowering

time to change the rez i noticed some discoloring on the bottom leaves light brown spots i think i got nute lockout or something isnt going right in the rez it smells funny too so im going to dump the system and give her a nice flush out and start over with nutes again.

here are a few pics for you guys and gals to check out some pistils showing well now...

veg room update

nothing really to say these girls are growing fast i dropped a screwdriver on the top of the one on the left which gave it a FIM like effect so now its growing all bushy the one on the right is 16in from top to bottom and the one behind it is around 12 the cheese/trainwreck cross is slow growing but its ok

i will probably move them into flowering room once they get taller about 24 inches in a DWC setup which could be for one of these girls soon i hope.

here are a few pics

Day 21 in flowering

Day 21 in flowering

so after some investigating my girls had a lockout of nutes...and come to find out my rez i had hooked up cooling everything really wasnt doing that the pump wasnt pumping water to the chiller it went out so temps went up a bit so i changed the design of the room a little just directly connected chiller to the system and got rid of the icebox.

so after about a week everything is ok now we are getting new growth and more flowers growing hopefully this doesnt effect my yield to much with the lockout. i have been having a great deal of leaves falling off but i think thats because i did a flush and the plants are eating up all the nitrogen from bottom leaves...


i put 2 of the pineapple express in the flower room they are looking good so far got them in a dwc set up but will be rdwc 2morrow after a visit to the hydro store...

replacing the open slots in the veg tent with a blackberry and LA woman feminized seed both have popped already...

heres some pics...

auuughhh damn SLIME

auuughhh damn SLIME

okay i got slimed and i know exactly what happened. when the temps went up in my rez, although i caught it i assume some of the little nasties starting building up, i guess its in my tap water the spores, everything looked fine once i made a rez change the first time but i added a little molasses and boy oh boy was that a no no...

the dreaded slime spores started to reproduce rapidly eating the molasses and fast it was going on for like 4 days aaaaugh man it was nasty too i did a dump of the rez and cleaned up the roots of all the slime and got some dutchzone and made some act tea for the BBs so hopefully everything will be ok but damn the girls are taking a beating...dont know how big this yield will be on the way these girls are looking lost alot of leaves during the process....

on the other hand the pineapple express is looking great budding up well and looking nice and healthy i will post some pics later this evening peace.

so here are some pics

so here are a few pics of the masterkush she doing ok now lost a bunch of leaves due to the slime but we have some new growth after the slime so i think they are just stressed out a bit and slow growing
