Ciao rootidec! Belli davvero quei cloni :yummy:! Curioso di vedere la Critical! Farai delle talee anche di quella? Hai la sedia con le rotelle uguale alla mia :biggrin:! Buon cultivo! Hola fratello! :wave:

:smoweed:

ciao mass :)
Della Critical pensavo di potarla e metterla a fiorire, così dal clone con calma faccio una mamma.
Lol grande la sedia 1kea, presa una sacco di tempo fa, ci stava costava poco eheh...

nice grow man, idk why i never checked in here. but looks like you are doing pretty well. Im having trouble getting my micro plants to pack on the weight. although im running organic soil so an extreme yield is not expected like it is in hydro.

thanks sour :)
I think I have quite an advantage using superthrive and bloombastic, strong sh... that may not be very good for health :|
I'm interested in organic, but I'm in a city and my choice is limited, plus I haven't looked at recipes yet.
I'm going to try some passive hydro soon, I've got this micro wick system with a well areated pot, I'll post details soon.
C ya!

Update:
7 plants remaining, at 7 weeks, 2 to go.


***
Today I'm pulling the two ex moms, shiva and Ice Cream, after 9 weeks.
They've been in that pot since 18th sept. and they showed defs the time I put them into flowering, but I was short on clones, and already headed to the wappa genetics to keep.



***
Ice Cream has always looked like this, nonetheless I'm bringing something home.
I found this strain great to smoke, sweet fruity taste, but I just saved one plant in three seeds, this one you see, and this pheno doesn't shine in any compartment really - 9weeker, par/subpar production, and pretty picky sometimes when schedule is misunderstood)


*yes it is iron wire, rusty too.

***
Shiva has been a mixed bag for me, nice run but no keeper.
Quite strong high, piney smell, pungent, but very fun high sometimes.
This pheno doesn't produce big buds, no matter the shape.
This plant tho, harvested at 9 weeks, has some of the best shiva buds I've done to date, as most shivas I did were harvested at 8, 8 1/2 weeks.





C ya! :)

...serious, things should change now with bigger pots and longer veg.

wsup root, going that way in my veg box , i have vegged 2 females for longer then 2 months in a 1,5 l pots and they will get only 2 weeks to adapt before switching to 12/12 , if satisfied of the out come i will be able to have 7 of those monocola females in my flo cab ( 28 l single container ) , i keep you updated with the result.

Peace S

that's real interesting, veg is very important I'm learning - some weak clones giving small harvest are telling me the same I guess :)
keep me posted sgap,
ciao fratello :)

260W hybrid micro SOG - small pots, multistrain

I'm thinkin about vegging some Of my next clones and seeds for a week or two also before flowering them out next time I think there is a manageable way to veg without overcrowding the space. I'm going to copy your hps/fan setup :).

Thanks for the fan/filter re do idea. The way you said it made perfect sense to me. It's not working? Then redo it! I think the better ventilation will definitely have a huge impact on yield too. I def appreciate your quality input my friend.

thanks mate :)
for the hps setup you should thank duckhunter, I copied his'.
About ventilation, yes, I'm pretty convinced you need a little more ^.^
On the other hand, it is impressive how you nailed ph/ferts after last run: far far better now!
Keep it up I'm sure you're gonna score as high as you want! c ya!

here's the harvest:
nothing to call home about, and of poor quality T_T
I'll never put a mom into flowering like this, without repotting, this going without saying.
The wappa (exmom, repotted) is showing little defs. I'll stay away from messing with moms for a while if I can :-D

Ice Cream:

The pc is now a vertical slum:

*just took some cuttings from the mom bottom left, after this pic.




I'm thinking about flipping the tent 90°, a leave the 150W and STOP.
And build another veg room with the 110W - the PC is overcrowded, and its lights aren't powerful enough to start new plants: this round's biggest problem has been "quality" supply first of all, so I had to resort on moms, poor clones...

that sounds like a good idea. I would do the same in your situation concerning the tent and light configuration. You should be able to veg some plants for a decent amount time before putting them in the 150w tent. my vote is yes, because i love finding an excuse to build a new cab.

That the way i am going, i am able to veg my plants/clones 2 months before transplanting in the flo cab. I need only 2/3 weeks before flipping to 12/12 once transplanted , just to give the final training and let them adapt to the new enviroment.

Hi rootidec! Very nice plants and harvest! Do you want to tansform your box like mine when I used 150w hps? This is very great idea! Buon cultivo! Hola fratello! :wave:

hi sgap :) I hope I can "see" that far once I set up a proper veg cab :) this round I'm going to see what I like most: small pots, or scrog/vscrog.

Awesome round! Those are some pretty looking plants/buds!

thank you blynx!! :) :)
these last are indeed the best so far with cut bottles, pretty dialied in :)
PS - I've also been quite low on ferts, 1/3-1/2-nothing pretty alternated... a little less than prev rounds...

Shiva - Wappa B - Wappa A (the biggest of the three really):
