Some Kushion for the Pushin...organic hydro

[BrainSellz]

happy days everyone! Got some clones from some females that havent been flowered yet... Kandy Kush, OG18 (4 different phenos) and Mandala S1 (got the pack bout 2 years ago and it said S1 (Sativa 1, 5 regular seeds)) (3 different phenos)....its a 29 bucket organic hydro grow using Pure Vida grow and bloom....few upgrades to the system are 3 screens per bucket, the drain line has been sized up to 3quarter inch and the lil black buckets have been removed as i have filled most of the fives up 3 quarters of the way with hydroton....took afew photos and will take more when things get growin...feeding at .4/.6ec for the first week and will up it to .8 for the remainder....atleast thats the plan...and does anyone with any info on a strain called "Purple Mountain Berry"?
....easy duz itwhat they are..

 

[BrainSellz]

A few changes to the system....changed the N-G-W tubing out, almost a nightmare, been through 2 of them already (2 oz off of 30 buckets and 8 oz off of 15 buckets and even threw out a good pheno) from the off gassing, changed 4 babies, they just got stunted and never got back up so i have 4 smaller plants in there...now that the tube is changed the growth is word...it was like watching plants grow in soil with the off gassing going on, when i changed nutes to organic it seemed to have coated the hose and didnt hit me too hard on the last grow however some of the outer plants got bad and the final numbers where ugh...anyhow i got the names of whats growing....Mandala Sativa 1's-3 differnt phenos also 1 Kandy Kush pheno and OG#18 (4 different phenos)...i put the longer flowering ones in line with each other so i can easily keep them fed when the others are ready to get flushed...gonna be some work but i used every last clone i had so im rollin with it ...fed these at 1.0 ec from the second week of veg till this sunday...they are being fed .8ec/420ppm with a 50/50 mix of Pure Vida grow and bloom at the moment and will leave it there, it usually fluxuates between .8 and 1. ec....they have all been topped, several times on most and many times on some....happy holla daze everyone!
will go around and take pics of the verieties...some are lil monsters...made some fem seeds also for the thread....La con x Kandy Kush and OG18 x La con should be some dank, hopefully!

25 days of veg

you can the leaf that is hanging over the bucket with brown edges, thats from off gassing, there are atleast one on each plant, it usually doesnt start doing the real damage until flowering from my experience...now that the hose is out the dying has stopped

 

[BrainSellz]

what the N G W hose was doing slowly but surely.....this has stopped in a matter of 4 days....you could slowly watch it kill the leaves daily

oh man it had my mellon swellon over hear tryin to figure out what was wrong....my other half was questioning my skills....crazy thing is it forced me to try organic hydro which im so thankfull for.....its bitter sweet man, now when i think about it, more bitter than sweet however that should change now that "hose" gone....no pun intended....

it probably wasnt his fault...give em hell Red...
it will really make one question the self/skills.....i started to think maybe i WAS messin things up, not that it couldnt happen but all was right when all was wrong....happy mofo now though, and the lovely ladies are too....

thanks Red as its always a pleasure to have you round....

nice, how many lights

 

[BrainSellz]

oh damn

oh damn

nice, how many lights

my fault...shoulda stated that...
2600 watts...1k on each end and the 600 in the middle....
8000 btu indoor ac is cooling the room.....also just picked up some Green Fuse-Bloom (amino acids).... pushed the ppms to 600 ppms with a bit more bloom than grow. oh and last but not least i will give them a bit of molasses, i have some in the cabinet from almost a year ago but think i will grab another bottle, i use to use this in my soil grows and forgot that i can use it in my res now...need to get another res to add to this one as i am adding to this one daily...between 1 and 1.2 ec and will leave it at that....gonna be adding CO2 hopefully within the next 2 weeks, i had a Gen 1 but gave the damn thing away what i was thinking...thanks for stoppin by alpo....

Great looking setup you got there! I just checked out your AK grow and thats a mighty fine sight ya got there. I cant wait to see how these babies do too.

NGW pisses me off!!! I am glad you detected it and got everything replaced.

This off-gassing thing cost me and my time. I suspect anything plastic or rubber now. I don't even trust pots and switched everything to smartpots.

Nice work!

yeah man after the hose replacement they have been going nuts, i just added some Green Fuse Bloom (amino acids) to the equation to give them a little help....thank you hashophile....
