here's a sunday update
7 weeks of flower done
despite a serious muck up i well still get some nice flowers
they never fully recovered from my screw up and i think i caused them to finish a little early
i wont know the full potential of these ladies though unless i run them again and dont screw up
talk is cheap so here's some pics
overview, i might try a ten plant run next time?
alien bubba; looks like bubba smells like bubba
sour bubble; its sour. not sour diesel sour, but a funky new kind of sour. not huge buds but frosty
grapefruit fly; fat swollen calyxes that smell like sweet pink grapefruit.. yum
firefly; a little more spearlike bud formation. i am digging this one.
amazing sweet pineapple smell. i will try to reveg this guy to get some clones to run again.
i think this one would be the asskicker if i didn't have any hiccups.
The end is in site! Lesson learned with the nutes bro! We have all done it at some point! at least now ya know where ya limits are with this system and the KISS formula right?
I know what ya mean about the transplant shock when the roots first hit the trays. I've started vegging them under weak floros for a few weeks or so in big 3x3 rockwool cubes. definitely reduced the shock compared to my last round. Stuck them on top of the clay balls in the pots to avoid the rockwool saturating problem.
Roots look great! wish I could check mine out like that. Bet you can't wait to cut those girls down and get them dried huh! Planning to reduce the KISS formula gradually or just go straight to water? I'm guessing the burnt buds shock ripened so will suck nutes out the lower fans sooner than the good ones. A gradual flush might keep things balanced.
hola my friend
lesson learned on the nute burn
i wasn't even trying to push it either, i just miscalculated
i'm gonna do like you and try to get some clones more prepped up so i can hopefully avoid the shock
i never had a problem with well rooted mini cubes (1"?)
but the places i get clones from usually use larger cubes
so i will try like you say to prep them with some pebbles underneath
as far as nutes, i just dumped 10 of 20 gallons to fill up with RO
and will slowly water it down for the finishing days
peeeeeeeeeeaccccccccccccceeeeeeeeeee off to see how the funky reveg is going =)
Nice grow ogenko, I used to run NFT back in the day and loved it. Nice explosive growth.... When you transplant them onto the tray as you say they should either have a nice root system to prevent saggy rockwool or be propped up of the floor of the tray itself and run the pump on a timer for a few days until roots hit the floor and start to o there their thang.
I definitely try a few more plants next run or mono crop with the same amount of plants using sour bubble as she seems to have got kinda big and I could see her filling the space using 6 of them and the same veg period.
anyways, digging the grow and pics are nicely done
thanks brothers from another
they did ok
not perfect, but not too shabby
yeah Shhh, gonna try to get my next roots prepped up a little before i start the flow
the sour bubble is sooooooo sticky. not a huge heavy nuggs but sticky as japanese nato
heres some finishing the grow starting the cure pics
I'll get back with weights and cured pics in a week or so
....and new baby clone pics ayayayayyayayyeeeeeeeeee
here's all the plants chopped and hanging above their respective holes in the nft tracks
here's one of many fat and frosty grapefruit fly nuggets. this was the winner i think
super chunky and sticky and sweeeet
and here is her stump which i do not have clones of =(
has anybody ever seen a stump like this be revegged??
im gonna try cause this girl was GREAT
Nice work Ogenko!! I have 3 or 4 of the GFF's that FINALLY went back to vegging. Come take a look and see if you can use any ... have a couple of SB's as well.
that's good news to me papa bear
ferdy hahahahahhah
ayayayayayyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!! =)
that particular grapefruit fly was off the hinges
yield was good and smell is yuuuuuuuuuumm
the prospect of giving it another go gives me warm fuzzies
buds still got some curing drying/curing to do
spent 20 bucks on lunch and a new return manifold from home depot
room is clean and waiting for new babies
hopefully i can fire up my lights and start a new thread in a few hours =)
awesome og, i love salad grows. ive been the king of them lol haha. variety is key to me haha.
back to an older post, imvho, and an experienced one at that, grapefruit is a blueberryx a bc big bud. both clones were very popular at the same time. and they seem like a perfect blend of both those elite cuts, mm
