Yeah man I've used that gravity at like 75% strength, and it did what it was supposed to do. It made my master kush look fucking mean bro.
Ive never used bush master on my plants but i just flipped my 2.4k flower room over last night and I was wondering what dose you use? I herd 1ml per liter?

SAMPO;
Be fucking real careful with Bushmaster bro, you can literally burn the fuck outta your plants with it. As with almost ALL my nutes, I use 1/2 strength (directions on the bottle BUT like I said I use 1/2 until I dial it in) unless I am running a strain that seems to really suck up the nutes (some do).
Basically it just stop's vertical growth and I do mean STOP, Hammerhead used to do the same thing.

Ok it's been as hot as it get's here in Santa Cruz for the last week and I have been tracking the rooms temps. I am consistently having my temperature from 75 - 79....4 degrees! Amazing, that is w/o ANY A/C just a lot of air recirculation and bringing in that cool, foggy evening air (since I only run my lights at night to save on PG&E bills).
I am very pleased with how the room is turning out, now if only Amazon would get my my (*@&#*^ Reflectix!
Grow on my bro's an ho's!

Now on to more pleasant stuff here is a cut n paste of a Heath Robinson - Black Rose grow on THC talk enjoy ..I know I did.

SMOKE/GROW REPORT
Link to grow diary:
I'm linking this report to two diarys, the first was a grow diary from seed that I never got round to finishing, but can be found here... http://www.thctalk.com/cannabis-foru...on-Penny-Black
The second is my most recent grow of the strain, but from clone...
http://www.thctalk.com/cannabis-foru...-for-Christmas.
Strain and seedbank: Black Rose by Heath Robinson
Genetics Cherry AK47 pheno x Somablaze Blackberry (Black Russian) crossed to a purple female Shiva Skunk. (I think I have the F6)
Numbers of grows or years growing- Over 10 yrs, have no idea how many grows that is
Grow Equipment, Location & Style: - Built in wardrobe (W) 1000mm x (D) 800mm x (H) 2175mm, Mylar lined. 4" RUK and CF, passive intake.
125w Blue CFL for early veg of seedlings and cuts
400w MH for veg and the first 2 weeks of flower
400w HPS for the rest of flower
Soil is John Innes 2 + about 25% perlite all the way, veg and flower. The cut was rooted in a jiffy pellet and the seedling was germinated directly in soil.
The cut was topped after about 2 weeks of veg, the plant grown from seed was topped at about the 6th node.
Cut
Seed grown (the BR's on the left)
In my experience the strain stretches quite a lot during veg, even under MH. As I only run a 400w I find it's a good idea to top them and then supercrop, that way the plant remains fairly short and within the 400's capabilities and depth of usable light. Keeping the plants under the MH for the first 2 weeks of 12/12 also helps keep the early flower stretch to a minimum.
Nutes/Feed: Very little, I prefer to regularly pot up and supply the plant with fresh soil. The plant grown from seed was potted up from 11ltr to 18ltr just after the 2nd week of 12/12. The clone went from 6ltr to 11ltr about 2 weeks before flipping to 12/12, the clone had no feed at all throughout the whole grow, the plant grown from seed had a little tomato feed during mid flower, ( 1mm per litre every 2nd watering or so)
Weeks of veg: From cut 5 weeks from seed 7 weeks
Weeks of flower: From seed 8 but she could easily have gone longer, from clone 9 weeks.
The plant is decieving, she looks ready at 6 weeks, hardly any white pistals at all and most of the calyx's look swollen enough to burst....
The trichomes tell a different story though....
Colour of trichs at time of harvest:
The majoritory of the trichs on both plants at time of harvest were cloudy, some amber and some purple
Wet yield: I have no idea and don't really understand the point
Drying time: About 7 to 10 days I suppose, that's how long it usualy takes before it's ready to go in to jars.
Dry Yield: Not sure, I don't really bother weighing anything I grow, at a guess I would say neither plant exceeded 3oz, but the yeild off the plant grown from seed was larger, (she was in a much larger final pot)
Both pics were taken shortly before harvest
From seed...
From cut...
Curing time: The longest the buds have been cured is about a month,...she doesn't yeild a lot, so she gets smoked quickly
Bud Density: Fairly compact but I wouldn't say they were dense.
Bud Appearance: Beautiful when in flower, after drying they do loose some of their brightness...(obviously the BR is the one in the middle)
Grindability?
Smell in veg ? Just like any other cannabis plant
Smell in flower ? She has a very unique smell, like nothing else I have grown. Very 'flowery', a bit like roses or carnations, but with weed??
Smell after curing Parma violets mixed with a rose scented incense stick. You can actualy smell the purple
Smell of smoke As above
Taste Flowery but subtle, quite moreish. The missus says she can defo taste the AK in her.
The High Quite an uppy high but that could be because on both grows the trichs were still mainly cloudy at time of harvest. If given longer she may give more of a couchlock buzz. But even with a longer flower I don't think she'll knock a seasoned toker on their arse. Having said that, the effect hits you pretty quick, she's no creeper
More of a day time smoke I suppose but not particularly creative, it's taken me feking hours to write this report!
Length of buzz ? I don't know, me and the missus rolled a fatty just at the begining of this post, we then rolled another and so on, now we're both very stoned....it's all good
Good comments: She looks amazing and packs a punch for a purple strain. A prize winner and no mistake. Doesn't take a lot of feed and is quite easy to grow as long as you control the stretch in veg.
Bad Comments: The stretch in veg. Not a brilliant yeilder (when grown by me in soil lol) She also didn't like being topped and started growing single bladed leaves for a while, but this didn't seem to effect her during flower. Both plants I have grown also chucked out a few male flowers at about week 6, but these must have been sterile because I haven't found a single seed in both harvests.
General Comments:
On the whole a great plant to grow, a real gem in the growroom and an eye catcher at festivals and smoking sesh's
Many thanks to Heath Robinson for breeding such a beautiful strain

huh... I have some SFV OGK x Cherry AK47...
there's so much going on in that hybrid... There had to of been a couple different phenos originally. Thanks for the info mega.
