As far as breeding goes I like your idea of a contained room for the males. I would also try to keep the males small and only in flower for a short time to collect pollen.

You should pull of Pirates cave thread. It is in grow journals or indoor hydro, I think. Any way he has some great posts with photos on how to go about collecting pollen and keeping from having your whole room seeded out.

The main point is to collect the pollen, then you use a fine paint brush to pollenate only those flower that you wish to seed. Then make sure to put a twist tie or some string on the branch so you know where you seeds are when harvest time comes.

My plan with the individual chambers was so I can cross with multiple males at the same time, also the chamber idea was to let whole female plants get pollenated and not have any worry of the plants gettin hit with other pollen while harvesting lots of seeds.

Howdy guys n gals.

Checked on the gals ppm was 563 and ph 5.3.

They looked hungry so I added 5tsp big bud and 60ml of bud candy,I'll check it in about an be to let it stir a bit.

I hope to see some girth in the next week or so.

Looking good over there GT.

what additives are you running ?

and at what mL per gallon?

 

[green_thumb...]

Sup stu,thank you.

I'm running sensi at 3ml/gal,big bud at .2tsp/gal and bud candy at 2.4ml/gal

They seem to be happy.

 

[stussy22]

Wow BB at 5ml a gallon of BB, And the leaves aren't showing any signs of burn.

Mine where showing some very slight burn on the outer side of the leaves. Also might have been from having the dehumidifier blowing on the pants.

I'm currently at 5.25 mL per/G of Heavy16 A & B. I was at 2mL of BB but knocked it down to 1.5. Also running .5mL of Roots excel and 5mL per/G of Liquid Karma and flora nectar.

Just something to compare too.

[Chris1]

I liked the vid haha. Why do you have the 1ks on floppers? Did you do any topping with the lv?

 

[green_thumb...]

Yeah I've tasted her before those pix look great.

Hey Chris I had the flip hooked up cuz my power situation won't allow for all the lights to be hooked up at the same time but today I took it down and took the 600w down and set 3k up to run the whole 12hrs on.

 

[Agent-Smith]

You should bring down the lights at least a foot, they're way too high in that video. That could be part of your stretch problem you were talking about.

 

[green_thumb...]

With current canopy temps at 90 I don't think it would be wise at the moment but I do have 2 cool sun hoods on they're way so I can AC the 3k in hopes of bringing down the temps to 75 ish so I can drop the lights down as you suggested.

I really wish I could get my darn main fuse box swapped out so I can put the 10k btu AC I have in there and not have to worry bout cooling the lights.

What's the hold up?

Need help?

 

[green_thumb...]

Yeah,I cannot do it myself.

I'm talking about the main power panel for the entire house so I have to get the power co. Out here to unlock the meter to pull out to be Able to swap the old one out.

 

[BigGreen]

Dude with the lvpk you want to keep the lights about 3' from canopy they dont like it close in bloom
