Well what the fuck, theyre as tall or taller than me! Thanks for the show BT (and lil BT), youve got a dope setup gentlemen. Im def jealous. And yeah, ewc tea. I didnt suggestit because i prefer chems in water, but itll def do the trick. In fact, ewc tea is my secret to retail ready roots in 7-10 days in rockwool. Big thing with aero or any cloning is water temp, ambient temp, amount of light and HUMIDITY. Ive had a batch in cubes at a spot that was less than 10% humidity that took several weeks to root. Got the humidity up to 40% (still too low) and it helped alot.

Sure man..here ya go:

I tried chems etc, but ewc did the trick.

I would get the dreaded slime/snot within 48 hours of reloading after cleaning. Then i upped the % of bleach when cleaning, and used plain tap water with ewc tea made from tap, ewc, molasses and a pinch of kelp meal. Not ph´d or anything. Set heater @ 24 C and timer on 15 on 15 off..boom roots..

Stay Safe

Hey Burning it is awesome to see the schnazzleberry#2 and SSK live on. I know a few people who still keep those ladies. Both were found in a 10 pack of beans :) I get lucky in that department. Also cool to hear you cracked some ecsb seeds, but sorry you didn't find anything tastey enough I know what you mean. there are lots of chocaltey/mocha type stuff, sour bubble bx4 was the dad. The keeper I have so far I rate higher then all the ogs I just ran and pretty much anything else in the flavor department, but I seen quite a few that weren't as good. I think it took me 12 females to find the girl I have, I need to crack a lot more of them and get some f2's going.

Also cool to hear your sour bubble story, I actually have a story to my first SB seeds as well. I basically was IC nerding it up for a long time before ever growing and through learning. I had read about everything, and for some reason sour bubble stood out to me so bad I had to have it. I literally read every piece of material on the internet about sour bubble 10 times, to the point no bullshit I was dead a sleep and when I woke up the very first thought in my head was sour bubble. I was thinking of contacting someone I knew in Cali and paying them for whatever trouble it was worth, trying to find out anyway to get sour bubble seeds.

Like literally 2 weeks after my binge Bog reappears and announces a release. I stayed up for 3 days refreshing every 17 seconds for that drop. I slept in my chair even. I got them, found a keeper that no elite clone imo has ever touched on almost every aspect as far as smoking experience. Cool to hear you feel the same about yours man. I have her outcrossed quite a few times now sooner or later I am going to find something special.

I don't keep the strawberry myself anymore but lately I have been thinking about getting her back from a friend and giving her run in the flip/flop, same with the schnazzle. That strawberry is insane right? People see it and smell it and look at you like you strawberry douched the bag. I am not a major fan of the high but the bag appeal smell and flavor are top notch. My 4 female patients LOVE it. Do the girls moan when you let them smell it to. I swear the shit was like that shampoo commercial where the girl gets off washing her hair, it had that affect for 2 seconds lol.

Late night stoned rambling, puffing a chemD, I just got all caught up in your thread. I forgot it was here I rarely come into the coco forums but I think you will see a lot more of me here soon. I am looking forward to some more strawberry and schnazzle shots.
 
smog - FNB I kept around 700-750 through out bloom and tapered off to around 300 the last week or so for a flush. I ran both with and without cal/mag. If you are using tap you do not need the cal mag. If your tap is over 120-150 ppm I would use RO water with cal/mag if possible. I had luck both with and without calmag running FNB .

I don't water to run off much so I do not read my run off ppm. I keep bringing the ppms lower and now that we are on Jack's we are down to 620-650. Plants look better than ever.

Vert- They arent THAT big. Lol. You seen me put the EWC tea in the cloners today so I'm hoping for magic!

GDK- Thank dude! Hoping for the best!

PK- You do have the midas touch when it comes to finding a high value female in a low number of seeds! Im trying to see if we took harvest pics of the schnazz run. It was RIDICULOUS. 4.5 off 12 plants under 2k. Granted they were getting side light from the rest of the room but damn that is my highest pull to date! Just put 8 more in yesterday to see if I can get to a similar # with less plants.

I remember you telling me in PM about you losing sleep over the Sour Bubble when I first posted up after I cracked the beans! Lol Same for me I NEEDED those seeds. BOG's writing was captivating and seeing the SB just made me drool, I could taste it through his pics and description! lol

Oh man the SSK. The looks I get when people crack a jar of that! And yes it is a super duper panty melter! There is a slight moan under the breath when a female finds her way into a bag! Lol Doesn't test high around 15-17% but has AAA bag appeal and a very unique terpene profile. Didn't you post up about finding sap when you trimmed it? Bro we keep finding clear and amber chunks! Like half the size of a pea. My boy vert had it tested and it came back 5% thc and 3% cbd I think. I'm going to have him resend the results if he has them.

Come on over to the coco side its been pretty good to me!

More pics up soon. Had to do some upgrades and stuff before leaving for the cup. Sooner that later thanks everyone!

Love your irrigation system... i'm actually trying to map out my own blueprint for my next run but not sure which route to choose yet.

will that size pump be too big for a single table and a 20 gallon Brute Can as a rez?

I noticed you mentioned that you use a 1/4 hp pump in a 50 gallon Brute to water two tables at once?
is that right?

I guess my Q is, will that size pump be too big for a single table under a 1kw and a 20 gallon Brute Can as a rez?
As it is, I am currently watering with a watering wand hooked up to a cheap ass Ecoplus 264gph submersible but would like to go drip
Thanks in advance,
H8
 
Vert - As you know the cup was a shit show. Crowded, no bathrooms, 4 hour entry line on the first day. Bunch of knuckle heads running around selling shit. Denver on the other hand is beautiful and I didn't meet a single asshole person surprisingly. Great scene and great errrrrrrl! :biggrin:

Chopping some GDP now. Came back to some very under watered plants and a few other issues. Luckily my girl was able to handle damage control for me on my vaca so all was not lost.

EWC in the cloner did the trick! Lots of clones now so we should get the train back up to full speed here shortly!

H8 - the pump may be a bit too big but you can just put a ball valve after the pump to slow the flow. This will allow you to expand off the pump in the future as well. I run 2 x 9 outlet manifolds, so 16 sites total per pump. Its more than enough!

Nice thread BT, i want to come check out the new digs, get at me!!!

Those SB bx4 you gave me have been cloned and flipped, high hopes isnt even the word, trying to focus all my good vibes on a winner! I didnt get the best germ rates, i blame myself, but i do have three lovely ladies, and some pollen? HAR HAR!!!

You have inspired me to start my own thread/grow log, writing it up now, will take pics tonight, ill send you a link when its up
 
GDK - Yeah thanks for the heads up mate! Did the trick last 2 batches went off without a hitch!

TBA - What up! Thought I would never see ya around these parts! Glad I got you off your ass to start a thread. Its a bit of work but it helps people out in a big way, like it did for me when I started out! As you can see I am a slacker extraordinaire with my thread though and need an update! We just got a Method 7 filter for my bros camera so it will be a little easier and higher quality.

Can't wait to see the BX4's bro! 3 ladies is plenty. Are you seeing a lot of variation in structure? The pack of BX4 I ran i ended up with 4 females and all were very similar in regards to structure. More branchy then prior BX's. I have 3 packs of the BX2/BX3 release sooooo if you have room! :biggrin:

Sour Bubble BX4 for you!


after i had grabbed clones and just before flipping it.. kinda let it go and then grabbed everything from up top which is unusual for me but it worked out and gave the plant a better stance imo

sorry my pictures are all blurry right now had a water accident with the camera and i have to replace it

two have identical structure one being the one above, the third is a runt and honestly most excited about that one it has the most to prove you know haha

Thanks for the love Vert, everything here is great, you? I plan on being around these parts much more often

here is a link to my thread i just started tonight
https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=262153
slow start i had high hopes everything looks great but after i ruined the camera every pic i snap is blurry... that method filter sounds dope i was just trying to hold my glasses in front of the camera

Awesome thread and will potentially be a model for a legal medical, couple questions I have if you wouldn't mind answering. What is your cloning process like? Also how did you figure out the timing, as far as when to clone how long to veg and when to put into flower? Any info is greatly appreciated, thanks so much!
