HS: yeah probably is the root mass,i'm liking the lvpk in soil alot more so far. also my soil gals are gonna be no comparrison in weight cuz they are way smaller and no where near on # of bud sites. gotta stop sometime in late may and we'll have a smoke report.

Blaze:thanks for stickin with us,im in love with the lvpk its top notch smoke for sure. I'll have to try and find a cut or maybe some beans of that katsu you type of.And your gonna kill it with lvpk in your soil mix. I'll RSVP for that show right now.

SH:thats just a tower fan keeping all the under canopy air super circulated,i only have a small 16# carbon filter hooked up to my exhaust for any type of filtration.

So you vet lvpk growers think I should hit em with OD yet? Were on week 6 yesterday

 

[green_thumb...]

C'Mon anyone? Day 37 today should I flush and refill with base and overdrive?

 

[Hydrosun]

No, you are having problems getting the buds to explode and that is most likely not the time to OverDrive them. I don't know the specific product, but she really doesn't like a lot of additives and you can end up doing more harm than good.

That being said the full view of the room looks like the ladies are connecting nicely. Throw up a shot next to the lighter again so I can see the white to red hair ratio and total size at day 37. Then I'll know better.

Thanks HS,I just got finished ducting all the hoods up and its all air cooled now should have steady temps now.

Took a few pix for ya HS,the first 2 are the coco lvpk.

And here's a side by side hydro lvpk on the left and soil lvpk on right

And a lighter shot of the hydro lvpk

I really think the lvpk can do better in dirt or coco if vegged big enough. The ones I did in hempys and coco had bigger and harder nugs
Nice pics bro
BG

I agree BG,,next run with lvpk i do will be in 30gal smart pots.

heres a pic of the hoods all ducted up

Im thinking the next run in rdwc is gonna be Qleaner and frostitute 2 x 4 bucket set ups,I'm gonna cross a qleaner male with a frostitute in that run too.

that should be a gnarly mix,huge purple nugs i hope.

later this year i'll be setting up a second location for that project.

DominicanGreen used 30 gal soil bags and smashed 4.75 lbs from 5 plants under 2Kw. I have never hit the numbers he has per hood, but I have had 20oz hydro plants. If you go soil make sure to have DG give you his feeding schedule.

 

[green_thumb...]

Right on! That info make me excited to get that goin.

As far as soil I was gonna give subcools super soil a whirl,its a water only mix so I can use blumats without worry.

I will hit up DG tho cuz I'll try a side by side and see what works better.

 

[Chris1]

lets see some bbk pics!!!

 

[green_thumb...]

Its not in hydro but here goes

I've only took a couple pics cuz its not headlining yet,but next big run is gonna have 4 or 5 of them in 30gal smart pots.

is it just me or would a ginormous DIY made E&F table for 6-8 30 gallon smart pots full of hydroton or coco be freakin sick?

 

[green_thumb...]

and its crazy,ive seen bbk cuts go for $50 a cut.

 

[DigDuggreen]

I like the idea of a monster size ebb n flow table. It would be awesome, Id like to do a ebb n flow with 30 gallon buckets

 

[green_thumb...]

i know right,just think a 5x8 table a couple ft off the floor made up of 2x4s plywood and alot of fiberglass resin to seal it with 6-8 30 gal smart pots with 2 months veg Co2 and 4k hps.

shootin for 1/2 # plants shouldnt be too pipe dreamish huh?

Hello everybody,been a few since updating.

I've come to learn there's been not only timer malfunction and a 1k was kicking on for a hr but the ipod I had playing music would illuminate for no reason and stay on,so in a nutshell epic fail over here.

Everything has seeds and the lvpk is disaster,to a point that is.

Here's some pics.

And some of the BBK

And that's it for now,I've had the lvpk flushing for 2 days now and the ppm as of lastnight is 100and I brought the ph up to 5.8-6.0 and I'm already starting to see the purple capabilities.

 

[Hydrosun]

The crystals look great, the smoke should be fine even with the set backs. Next round will be a lot better.

 

[green_thumb...]

Thanks Hs I sure hope next round goes without a hitch.

My next round with the lvpk is gonna be soil,I might run qleaner and frostitute in the rdwc next round.

 

[Chris1]

Tough luck mannn, for whats its worth I don't see a seed...just madddd crystals

 

[Neo 420]

No matter the issue, still looks nice bro...

 

[green_thumb...]

Chris1 and neo420 thanks guys,its hard to see the seeds in pics but they're there.

So the other day I drained the system and refilled it with fresh RO but I think in the process one of the lvpk roots dried out a little too much cuz she drooped like a dry soil plant,so I pulled her lastnight.
