1st coco grow 1200W

[BigPhil]

Hello Fair maidens & Gentlemen, I'm gorwing in a Dr240 tent, Using canna coco & nute range, Air cooled hoods 2 x Osram bubs dulecore, I do have 2 phillips son't bulbs, But wanted to see how well the orams do, lumatek ballasts, Intake and outtake fans,

I have 2 Djs Blueberry from seed


3 Zombie Virus (Im actualy looking forward to trying these the most) from beans, Two are showing there sex but are teasing me and havent flashed there bits at me yet


And under this 600W along with the ZV & BB I have two Critical mass(along the back right) & two Calizhar (the little two at the front) they was last to root

Now I had to put my other 600W on a cupple of days ago because the plants needed more room to grow, I only had one MH bulb so Im now vegging three more Critical mass(there the bushy 3 in the middle) I topped those & three more Chalizhar's (The Critical mass & Calizhar are cuttings) under one of the Osram bulbs



Ive been watering every 2 days, With half strengh nutes, ph at 5.9-5.8, Once the BB & ZV show there sex & are happy in there new pots, Ill be changing the light cycle to 12/12 and start watering every day. I think once I got some money together, There is a few things I can improve my setup with (an extra light maybe or light mover, Blumat watering system, A larger filter & fans) Temps are about 22c, More 25c now with the other light on as well

This is my 1st grow in coco and my set up is new aslo upgraded from a DR120

Let me know what you think, I dont mean to blow my own trumpet but think that things are looking good so far

Me tagged too. Yer too fast, JC!

Great job, Big Phil. Can't wait to see the Blueberry in flower.

Best I remember, ZV has two expressions, early and late. I'd guess I had ~20% amber, give or take

The "early" one has large buds that are ready at 56 days. If you like a little more amber, check the trich color. You probably won't need a glass, it'll get the toasted look.

The "late" expression has smaller, tighter buds. I let this one go to 63 days as it's amber is slightly delayed.

I enjoyed the early pheno the best. Biggest yield and earliest chop. Both smelled like grape dank while growing. I didn't do the best cure and taste was a little, earthy/woody. It still tasted great but I'd hoped for grape, skunky, whatever. Maybe your cure will be the difference. I'm sure BlackRain and/or Dr Dog, even Che could provide a better taste comparison.

Here's the early expression ~7 weeks. I've got a 150w HPS and 2.5 sq footprint in flower. This one was ~32 grams. Probably the best yielding strain I've grown.

Nice1 Disco I have seen your growing skills mate very nice, Some pics of the ZV ive seen are quite leafy(not yours but some), Your getting 60w psf from your 150w I have a 8 x 4 giving me 37.5, I think thats abit on the low side. But ive always had nice plants and good grows, Cheers for the info on the VZ nice pic, Yes man I hope I get a nice BB fem I'll take some better pics in the up coming weeks, Thanks for stopping by

Ello lad...

Looking good so far mate, I like the upgrade and new set up. Will you be taking clones off these lot to keep any as mothers? I too am interested in the blumats, could do with to save me the hassle of hand watering. I have used drippers before (with pump) but usually get a clogged 1 or two or 1 that has shitty pressure while the rest are ok, might be I am just shite @ setting up dripper systems, lol whatever the cause the blumats don't seem to suffer from the same fate and don't need the pump either so another piece of the puzzle out of the way.

Those calizhars are from chimera right? I have been dying to try something from him for a while as I read his breeding skills are very good. I'm interested to see how they come along.

Hello Shhh mate, Yes them blumats sound the bizz, I have kept a Cali and CM cutting, And I will be taking cuttings off the VZ & BB, The Cali is no longer avalible to buy, But I dont think you can go wrong with Chimera, There shanzzleberry# 2 was nice and have some Mental floss in the bank for a later date

One of the zombies has shown me some tiny pistels 2day, Im thinking one is male and the other maybe fem as it has somthing like a pistel, its not growing out of a little pointy bit, Just looks like a hair on the node? The BB have started to show as well but I dont know what they are yet
