growing with khaleel :D

[Khaleel]

ras: you can say that again lol thanks my friend much obliged

ok got the transplanting done. was light on soil/mix for the 4 viper's, so i did an old technique that i used to find works pretty well--put an inch or two of chunky perlite in the bottom of the bag. worked out to give me that little extra soil that i needed, and i'll be able to do a side-by-side to see if it makes them kick more ass than the cherries do.

​

after a topping/fim'ing round to let canopy catch up

​

oh yeah, the ocean forest/pro-mix/combination side-by-side has a clear winner--gotta stick with the 50/50 combination of FFOF and Pro-Mix. (i'll get the name of the pro-mix.. it's a new one they just started carrying in the 'dro stores.)

here they were before i just transplanted:

from left to right: ocean forest only, pro-mix and ocean forest 50/50, pro-mix only. (wouldn't recommend the pro-mix only after all lol. a little peaked.)

clone tray is looking good. roots on the bubbba dc 2's, both of em. i'll wait til the cherries catch up for transplanting.

here's some shots of the bloom room an hour after lights out. the girls are looking good, on the less than green side for only shy of five weeks, but that is ok i'd rather be in that direction than the other. i gotta give em guano tomorrow and will be in there moving around, so i'll pluck the super-dead leaves. flowers are really starting to stink up.

cherry haze x trainwreck

viper x trainwreck

bubba kush x deep chunk 2 (non-purple monster)

g-13 x dc

​

and on we go..

ah shit! sorry to hear mr.p, that sucks ballz. but yep, what ya gonna do. sometimes just gotta let life take its course and get back to what you want when the time is right. hope the surgeries aren't anything life-threatening, my friend. i will kick it up a notch in your honor. right now i am finally set up to do half the room every month. which amounts to around a bow or little more, so after a couple more months i should be able to afford another 1000. of course i've been saying that about money my whole life.. that big payday is just around the corner. what i find happens more often is that the big payday never comes, but little shit trickles in here and there when you need it the most. i had some pretty random income over the last three months, and each one of them has been super-needed right when it came in. like big-time. almost made me believe in a higher power. the last time that happened was after visiting a med store in santa cruz, and it was the most wonderful jar of Sativa i'd ever smoked...

wow, how did i ramble to here? lmao sparkin some of the g-13 that is dry. i think i like it. just took me on a little journey transcending space and time, and all i started out to say was "hi mr.p" haha

right on, man, hope the surgery and shit goes well--here's to ya

 

[Khaleel]

shit, guys. i just hit 1000 pics and can't post any more. i'll try to track down a moderator and see what i gotta do, but if anyone knows please lmk

thanks, got the bloom room guano'd, pruned and rearranged into seperate halves. i'll be harvesting the dozen or so large gals in a little more than a month or so, then after that the second half will get replaced by the upcoming veg, etc. should have a nice monthly cycle to get things going. almost there. fingers crossed.

hope all is good out there peace and good vibes

 

[heady blunts]

haha i'm not surprised! i think you can get a higher picture limit if you become a donating member...

 

[Mrpiston38]

na K nothing life threating but still a PIA will be 3rd and 4th ankle surgery, hince why I have a med card. but hey look at the bright side, I will make more on Dissability then i would working. Its the slow time for what i do so money would be hella tight anyways but most important is i need to get healthy and 6 yrs of this shit has sucked. I hope u can post more pics, 1k is kinda lame as far as a limmit. Maybe u might have to delete some old ones? gl anywyas and i hope the garden is doing well. on a side note g-13 is one of my fave smokes, so enjoy my bro and take 2 for me

word, good to hear nothing too crazy bro. i hear ya on the money being tight thing. i probably would have continued to live my life in grower-denial if it wasn't for having no other choice but to start losing house, car, etc. f that noise. not going to be another statistic in the real estate bubble. and you got it, the most important thing is to get as healthy as possible. that g-13 x dc cross is pretty tasty. i'm about to smoke a bowl of her right now. here's to ya

heady b: thanks my friend, yup i think i have to donate. i will go through and delete some old photos (1000 is a lot of mofo'in pics i can almsot not believe it lol) to get me through this big harvest. then i'll be able to send in some coin.

ok everyone, i have been working my ass off in the transplanting department. got enough 3 gal gals in the bloom room now to start a small army. half the room is at 5 weeks bloom, the other half is between 1-2 weeks. enjoy few pics. (it's few hours into lights out so don't be alarmed by the severe droopage lol i promise the big veggie looking cherries are just fine )

[Dr.Greenthmb420]

Whats up mane!? Just stopping thru, getting an update on how things are going. Looking clean man! I'll drop a new thread some time soon and hopefully I can show you what Im working on now.
Dont be a stranger

 

[Khaleel]

hi doc, thanks for the kudos and good to hear you are about to get back up on the icmag. drop a line once it is up and i'll stop by. :friends:


did some watering and guano-ing today. got folks settled in. only one seedling left to go, one of the two TW ibl's. here are my results for ladies (pretty f'ing good, tell yer buddy nice work dj! )

Killer Chem x TW ibl = 4/5
Grand Daddy Purps x TW ibl = 5/9
Trainwreck ibl = 1 female, 1 remaining

got clones off all of them, but if i missed one i missed one. things are getting crazy right now and keeping all these little mofo's seperate is something i'm ok putting a little effort towards but am not about to stress over lol i'll have at least one good female out of each, hopefully.


here are my cherries in early bloom. four nice fat gals gonna bring daddy some honey.

here with the rest of the cherries:

​

and the short, stocky vipers, got four of these on this round:

ahhh, here is an update you should enjoy. the first killer chem x trainwreck that showed female. she is kicking some serious ass, dj. such beautiful structure.

some bud shots. all gals at day 35.

bubba kush x deep chunk 2

​

viper x trainwreck

cherry haze x tw

 

[Tarus Bulbar]

Very impressive khaleel!!
Alot of kick ass strains bro
Cheers

 

[soulfly22583]

looking good as always my friend. those flowering shots are nice, really like the noding on CHxTW!

 

[Tonatiuh]

nice mf update yo,will be nice to see what the extra perlite does for you if anything because i always throw some down in the bottom of the bag to keep.it draining good and to help the bags sit right...idk if it does anything as far as the health or growth...like i said itll be coo to see.
peace-T-

 

[nameless]

hey brother k, i hope all is well with you. im glad youve been chugging along, made some nice improvements too. ive been a busy bee myself, with my work picking back up to full time + and my tent giving me hell for awhile. just wanted to pop into one of my fav. threads and say high! oh yeah, +K for 1000 picks already - you should unlock a new title for that right? lol. stay up bro.

wow no posts in weeks and it still wont let me give you rep. lame.

 

[Khaleel]

greeen: thanks brother good to see you

souL: roger that my friend, the KC is looking sweet huh thanks bro hope you are good

t: ahhh nice i did notice that it was easier to manage em like that, might have to do that again, i'm liking it so far. thanks g

nameless: hiya pizzle, thanks good to see ya and good to hear things are going well on your end. do you have a link in your sig line? i'll have to take a look and check it out if so. thanks for the kudso lol i know, i hate that shit not being able to rep someone. i think you have to rep four other people (or 9) before letting you do it to the same guy again, something like that. but cheers anyway mate :friends:



ok, i've been slacking bigtime on the pics, i know. lol i know you'll forgive me. been working pretty hard getting veg room ready and clones and getting all new blooms into 3 gal/finishing containers. also been outa town a bit, so time has been pretty balls-to-ze-wall. but got a break tomorrow. just gotta pick up some guano and couple supplies, shouldn't have anything to do for a while now until the new clones are ready to move from 16 oz cups to bags.

mostly cherry, a few vipers (will be more next run, fosho) along with the clones from each KC x TW, Grandaddy Purps x TW, and regular TW. oh yeah, also had the other TW ibl turn out female too so have two phenos to choose from. very happy with the TW ibl crosses so far, DJPLatnimxxx, fuck yeah man

​

gonna phase out the g-13 DC crosses and also the bubba kush ones except for the purple monster one. she was just too nice. i'll keep a couple of her going in each harvest. maybe even just one, but it is always good to have some bubba around when you need it.

let's see, things are good in bloom, just cruising right along. about 3-4 weeks from harvest. lol i am excited, i gotta say. gonna do one more feeding of guano for each in the next few days, then i'll do a plain water for each and by then will be time to start the flush. i'll be using Gravity as a finisher to make sure they harden up. the cherries and viper really love that shit.

here are the viper x trainrweck, day 40. not too bad from the top. really not too bad from the side. see ya soon, enjoy pics!

 

[Khaleel]

if i ever say "all the work is done for now" again, please do this: lol sure, all the work is done. nice try khaleel. noticed the exhaust was smelling fruity, so i hooked up a new carbon filter, also checked all the "joints" or whatever througout the exhaust hookups, where tape was, etc., to make sure everything was connected properly. found a couple leaks so that was a good idea. the girls are stoked about the central air running now. keeps humidity nice and low, and temps as well. seening a couple dark tips on the cherry and vipers now after just a few days at the lower temps (around 70ish). should be a fun color show over the next couple weeks finishing.

also noticed a couple of nute burn tips on the vipers, so figured i might as well do the flush right now. really helped my first run. i didn't do it with this last small harvest, and i could taste the difference. (talking about running a shitload of water through them--the flush--not just cutting nutrients, which i call the rinse. hope that is clear as mud lmao).

i'll still give em one more dose of the snow storm and kool bloom, but no more guano. they look plenty fed. time now to focus on other direction, so put em all in a ring of fire lol around the laundry room drain, and soaked about 5 gallons of tap water a piece down em. got a lot of buildup out, so i'm pretty glad i did it. every time i start to dial up the nutes, i'm reminded again why less is more. good stuff.

while i had em out figured i may as well do a quick photo shoot so enjoy pics, today is day 42 -- 6 weeks! just the one more light feeding then it is finishing time

 

[Khaleel]

the hps light looks shitty so i figured i'd try a couple black and whites too.. kinda cool i think.

feels good to finally have my perpetual system fully up and in check.

​

 

[Smoking Gun]

K, as always looking stellar. You will surely have a nice harvest in front of you. I am actually a bit jealous of all your hard work, for one I miss doing it, secondly I miss having the end results. Anyway, make sure you give a few clones of the G13 cross to people you trust with them, because when you want that strain around again (and you will want it back at some point), you will know where to find it.

 

[Tarus Bulbar]

Those ladies look amazing khaleel!
On average,what would u say ur pulln
outta the 3gal pots/bags?
Cheers Bro!

 

[b00m]

Said it before and I'll say it again, "Love ya Work Bro"

 

[Khaleel]

Said it before and I'll say it again, "Love ya Work Bro"

thank you kindly boom, much

smokingg: thanks for the advice, bro. you know in the past i messed up by letting some go that i wanted back.. but this g-13 i've done a few rounds now, and she is nothing special. decent producer and decent smoke, but i am looking for killers. the viper and the cherry are def in that category. same as the purple bubba, the small one. i'll see if any of these new tw crosses come out bangin, but i'm probably going to have a full garden of half viper and half cherry just to simplify feeding and harvest schedules, etc. i'll see if anyone wants the g-13 but not sweatin it. cannacopia, great job my friends i hope you don't take any of that too serious. very fine herb indeed. i am only looking for the perfect herb for me, as most are. cheers.

couple more pics about halfway through lights out. i'm up mercin' on black ops so why not lol

nobody puts baby in a corner. but the killer chem is ok there lol not doin bad at all. def on the spindly side, but i suppose that is to be expect with the chem right (?). still very pretty and already has a distinct odor.

peace
