Day 30 flower

Day 30 flower

Ok well tonight is the start of day 30 of flower and things have stopped stretching and started swelling. I got some shots to show though some of them may be a little blurry I must apologize was kinda in a hurry to get them been very busy and was glad to even get any for you guys for this update. So far everything is going pretty smooth. started pulling a few leaves here an there that are blocking bud sites. these are going to be some big colas on the other plants I have pretty nice node spacing.

The PPK plant is just chugging along, started taking some leaves here an there off of her as well the past few days.starting to get some very nice structure from her. Already starting to get trichs on the bud sites and on some of the fans already. Temps have been pretty steady at 74 to 78 on and 63 to 66 off, the RH has been at 60% on and 50% off. so Far each plant is eating about a gallon of water/food a day, and the PPK is at about 1.25 gallons a day ph has been steady at around 5.8

The first five shots are of Jedi Kush #3, she is stacking nodes very nicely while staying nice and squat and thick. This plant had a normal stretch and seems to be pretty happy so far.
The next 5 shots will be of the Jedi Kush #6, This plant is a lot thinner and stretched a lot more than #3 had nodes are a little more spread apart but for the most part I should end up with some pretty nice spear colas from her.
The 3rd set of pictures will be from the sour diesel. This plant had a little bit more than an average stretch but seems to have pretty nice and even node spacing and seems to be frosting up pretty nicely so far, I am very pleased with this one so far.
Next will be the 91 Chem. this plant stretched at least 3x but is filling in nicely as well as frosting up. This plants nodes are very close and seems to like the set up so far she is by far the happiest plant in the tent besides the PPK plant as you will soon see.
Lastly but not the least is the PPK plant she is stacking and fattening and frosting. I started backing off on the length of the Pulse but shortened the amount of time between pulses. The pulse isn't taking as long to fill the container and draining a little bit slower but I expected this from the amount of roots jammed into the top container. so far so good.

I will label the top of the pages with the plants in the pictures for that page. Hope very one enjoys my day 30 update.

today i set my alarm for 4:20 because i knew it was going to be that kind of day.

i got up, made a cup of expresso spanish style con leche, loaded a big bowl of some old purple kush i had laying around, poured some reeses pieces in a little dish next to my computer, and saw this.

even though i will spend most of the day trimming my whole day is made! i'm grinning from ear to ear!

i live such an incredibly rewarding life! and it's because of other people! when i am a selfish bastard i don't feel as good! who could have guessed that?

thank you!

Yes she is. If you can tell I had to take 3 pics of her to get her all in the pictures lol having the HPS light on didn't really help matters but I will take a huge freaking plant over HPS light in my picture lol if thats all I have to worry about with the PPK then I am in pretty good shape. another couple weeks I will probably be walking around with a permanent erection lmfao thanks for gracing my thread with your presence HL45

D9 thanks for stopping by man your the one that should be thanked more so than me I am just a copy cat so to speak ;) . In a good way . I am glad I could get your day started with a smile. Between you and HL45 popping in along with Dave, Alien,and noyd my day has gotten a lot better also. I am sure there are a lot more tagging along.

Thanks Dave. It don't take much with this system. Attention to detail is a big thing and knowing what will work and what won't helps a lot in getting a system set up around your knowledge and skill base, but it helps out stupedously when you Have a ton of great people around to help you get shit straight. You will get there Dave I have faith and strong will to help you get to see the light don't you worry my friend we will get you there just have to be patient.



well I am off to work for the night and I will be back later on if anyone has anything they would like to talk about. Thanks again guys for stopping in it means a lot

Really nice run hb, they're stacking up nicely :) the ppk is kicking it.

Thanks forkup, yeah they are stacking very nicely and frosting as well. My camera blows so its hard to see the crystals all over the place they are even starting to form on the edges of the fan leaves. Thanks for stopping by forkup next week looks like its gonna be nice as well till then

highly skilled growers can make the ppk look really good!

I wouldn't exactly call myself skilled, I know how to grow and I love gardening and such, but I am not very good with the scientific theory behind it all. I have a good head on my shoulders and pretty good at figuring things out but you my friend are the VERY SKILLED grower, inventor,all around good person. Thanks for stopping in D9, stop in anytime you want to my friend.

little update

little update

Just some pics I took last night of the ladies, like I was saying they are getting bigger and bigger every night swell is in full effect. I took off some suckers and a few leaves freach plant including the PPK plant. I noticed that the 600 penetrates but the growth is just so crazy that I had to trim out a lot of suckers and leaves again last night. keeping up with 1 plant in this system is something that should be every days IMO. growth is just explosive at all times a plant can become over grown if not properly, and regularly trimmed back for ultimate return or yield.

The first picture is of the PPK plant I took the picture threw my lumii glasses and had to cover the light so thats why its so dark. I trimmed her up a little bit after I took this picture as well as the rest.
The second or third picture I forget is a sour d bud the measurement is from where the bud starts off of the main stem not its lateral branches. there is like 5 or 6 of these size plus laterals. Should be a pretty nice plant
then there is one of the chem 91 it is pushing 3'+ high and roughly 32" wide. I will get some shots of all of them for Thursdays update let them balloon out some more.
There is a shot that is blurry I know but it shows the crystals growing on the leaves and all over the plant. My camera sucks so focusing on stuff like that is hard I did the best i could and this shot is the best I could do to show you.
The last picture is of the sour D after I cleaned her up a little bit. Also I lowered the light down into the canopy so the top of the 600 is about 6 inches below the top of the plants so the 400 is blasting the bottoms and under parts they are loving it so far.

At day 35 I will be lowering the maxi slightly and feeding with koolbloom powder for 2 days then finishing the week with maxibloom at 6g/gal, then week 6 dropping the maxi altogether and using florabloom with powder koolbloom for the first 2 days then florabloom the rest of week 6. At the beginning of week 7 will be florabloom with Koolbloom liquid for the first 3 days then florabloom for the remaining 10 days before plain water for 2 weeks or until the chop. This will allow me to slowly cut out the nitrogen and still feed P-K at good amounts till I begin the flush. I have not been to happy with the product I have been getting with the maxi with only a 2 week flush and wanted to drop the N w/o starving the plant of what it needs to continue swelling. More or less a trial run to see how it works out hope its works in my favor. I can't be happier how things have been going so far. Hope everyone enjoys my little update, and pictures.
