im gonna start following this thread as i build my mother chamber
to second what someone else has said, go read through the first 50 pages here. it'll take a few hours but it's worth it. or just filter dr. bud from the thread and just read what he has to say.

also if you're into finding a good mom and dialing the strain in later why are you using autoflowers? whole different beast... though I'm sure you know that.

Dr Bud was a personal inspiration as I'm sure he was for many. I can only hope I get near 1/2 of the GPW figure he's pulling by the end of next year.

Cheers Dr. Bud, whatever you may be doing right now.
 
My soil mix is Perlite,Vermiculite,Chicken Compost,local peat....from a Bog about 10 miles away,and good ol' worm poo. They are fed 4-droppers full of Schultz 10-15-10 ,1 Tbsp. Fish Emultion, and 4 drops SuperThrive per Gallon of water everytime I water

DrBudGreengenes,

Being in a similar situation as yourself, could you expound on your use of Superthrive? Everything you do has purpose and I can see that. The frequent use of Superthrive except the last two weeks of flower has me perplexed. Given your background I am hoping for sensible explanation on Superthrive. Also, could you detail your reveg routine.

thanks for your time,
CD

Such an inspiring grow! I'm looking to shoot for the moon with a perpetual harvest with a longer time between harvests. Instead of doing a 16oz I moved into a 2L bottle and vegging for a week or so. It'll be around 400 watts (if not 10, 42 watt bulbs :canabis: ) I'm working with two g13 clones at the moment to start this adventure. Thanks for all of the help!

Hey all!
Just wondering what the soil mix was that Dr Bud used. I know that it contains Perlite, Vermiculite, Peat Moss, Worm Castings, and Chicken Poop. I dunno if the Dr still ever checks this thread, but I was just wondering the portion size of each for the mix.

Thanks all :)

yo Senor SPelunker, :smokey:

Superthrive is a Nitrogen bomb for your plants, you don't want excess N in flower. It has lots of B vitamins and other goodies, but the reason to leave it out of late flower is the high N content, methinks.

EDIT: for the people who miss the Dr. Do your best to fight trolls, in his name. They kill creativity and force light out of the darkness that is the interwebs.

Whaaaat???

Dr Bud is dead?

Oh men, I hope not.

Oh boy, Dr Bud, Thundurkel, Blynx and Anti are my personal gods, so I'll be here to know more about your grows guys.

Forgive my english, I'm from Mexico and I'm already an english student. So I'm doin' my best.

thats what i thought my autoflowers would achieve, but im looking more towards a mother now that ive given em 30 days and theyre being a pain. trying to figure out 12 seperate phenotypes at once is so much harder than finding a good mother and dialing her in for max yield/flavor/high

im gonna start following this thread as i build my mother chamber
Eeeehhrr......sorry to rain on your parade, but you cannot make a mother, as it is autoflowering, you cant keep it in veg stage !

:tiphat:
Here´s to you Dr Bud, where ever you are ! :bow:

Very nice to see you are still around on the boards Dr. I would just like to say Thank You for posting your grow threads, if it wasn't for you I would still be growing outdoors once a year instead of now all year round with my cupboard and bathroom lights and high density perpeptual SOG, Thank You Dr.BudGreengenes.

Much Respect
