Competition GROW CONTEST WINNER: Tonatiuhs 8K Dreamquest

[Tonatiuh]

TK veggin,gonna get them nice and bushy before they get triggered.

Irene kush veggin,i have 3 of them,i been keeping them under flouros until i can get to them.theyre some healthy chikas for sure.

x 22 uk cheese just flipped...couldnt quite get them all in the pic...thats Roxy in the back,ill get to her in a few.

....

 

[Tonatiuh]

the white and chem d side going nuts...not too bad for 20 days but some got a little bit stretchy on me...
didnt get any good shots of the chem d but here goes the white,20 days

....

 

[Tonatiuh]

here goes the roxy...not a keeper for my room as i see her at the moment.seems to yield well,but has stems that are much too weak to support the buds on it,even staked they snap and im losing buds almost daily.walkin past them is almost gonna always snap a stem.too fragile for me i think,unless its some amazing bud,nothing of whats broken off so far is hinting towards that though.has almost zero smell even though its covered in trichs.its somewhat sticky but not nearlly like any of my other gear,not what i was expecting from her as of yet.

heres some of them,i have 12 total,this is around 6 of them.day 65,coming down monday...like i said shes pretty but idk how she gonna show out w the taste and buzz.

 

[Tonatiuh]

heres the size buds that are droppin off these plants,i must have lost atleast oz or 2 from the stems breaking off.got it hangin but idk how itll be...

brb w some bear og and og chem dry shots...

 

[Tonatiuh]

bear og

both side by side

all for now.
peace-T-

 

[brotherindica]

Blowin' that room up, Tona!

Roxy def looks the part, hope she smokes nice for ya.

That Bear OG is super calyxed up....killer looking stuff

 

[tokeinafort]

Does the stretch in veg increase yield?

 

[InjectTruth]

That og chem nug looks like its as solid as a ball peen hammer, especially next to that bear og nug. FROST HAMMER.

Hey T, Im seeing how your lights are oriented, and Im wondering if you have em that way for a specific reason? Do you feel you get better coverage with the length of the bulbs running perpendicular to the longest side of the room? Im guessin this is the case, as it justifies running the extra duct work.

Im thinking Im gonna run that whole 18x14 room for one run during the transition into the colder months. Pretty much copying your set up, except its 4 1ks and 4 600s on a checkerboard pattern. 8 lights, 4 ballasts. Runnin at night i dont think Ill have any problems with temps, but I was considering orienting the hoods the other way, so I can just duct them all together.

Im hopin you just had the hooks like that already and never changed em over but I know thats not how T rolls.

 

[Tonatiuh]

broindy-and thats all she did was "look" the part.not gonna start bashing strains because some folks might love it,and i dont want that debate in my thread.just gonna say she wasnt for me.
peace-T-

tokin-they dont really stretch in veg bro,more just grow at whatever pace they grow.the stretch doesnt start until u flip them into flower mode,lasts about 2-3 weeks depending on strain,and some never stop stretching it seems like...and yes,it can def increase yield but it is not the deciding factor in determining ur yield by any means.hope that helps.
peace-T-

inject-well bro,i wish i could tell you that i did the math and thats the best way possible to align my lights to achieve maximum spectrum and footprint.....but id be a lying muthafucka LMAO...theyre hung like that because thats the way the ceiling let me hang them,thats it,no more no less.ive since figured a way to get them the other way but im too lazy to redo the whole room and this works so F.U.C.K.I.T. ya kno...just got me another 8 inch max fan so i can get the other side all tied in,ive only been cooling 6 of the 8 lights this entire time lol....
peace-T-

pics tonight,the whites have about 12 days left i think and theyre greasy and frosty af,chem d right behind them w about 20sum days left...cheese flipped and i have 20 TK in 7 gl pots waiting to get flipped...shits blowin up,wish i could take pics more often but if you only knew how many hours i need in a day u would be surprised i have time to grab the cam at all.
peace my friends...-T-

 

[Tonatiuh]

ok i know it was a little bit longer then expected but here goes some pics...

TK veggin,ill let them veg till i like the shape of them,i want bushes before i flip them in these bigger pots...i shouldve started topping them sooner then i did but i think i can get them in gear by time ill want them in flower.plus they blow up as far as bushing out during stretch.

some UK Cheese,week 2

the white,and chem d side...has a crazy ass canopy but they aint lookin all that bad considering...

brb w some flower shots....

[Tonatiuh]

wattup peoples...just here to drop a few snaps but 1st i wanted to see what u guys think about this lil bs i have going on w the uk cheese i just flipped like 3 weeks ago.
it seems like a cal/mag issue but ive treated for it and it doesnt seem to be getting better.it hasnt been long enough to really see if new growth is gonna be the same but i wanted to see what u guys think this could be other then a cal/mag issue if it is,and how i should best treat it...the leafs are just dying off like nobody business,UK Cheese always is a cal/mag whore but i dont remember her ever being this fussy.i havnt flowered her out in a while but ive been running her for years....anyways here go the pics,hpefully its cal/mag and im just being noid but i hate issues in my grow.

starts like this

then to this

eventually to this

and then

how the plants look,some better,some worse...

its ONLY the cheese,i have 1 chem d i put in the same mix and flipped the same day that has no issues at all,shes fine.
brb w a couple more shots of this issue.
peace-T-

 

[Tonatiuh]

 

[Tonatiuh]

ok now for some better stuff

TK vegging away...been staked so i can get her bushed out like i want them.

cloner,ogchems and bears...not pictured is some irene kush cuts and some other new gear i JUST got in.

heres some chem d that has a ways to go still

brb w a flood of some white shots...

 

[Tonatiuh]

the white,juuuuust about ready

peace-T-

 

[InjectTruth]

That whitey is really done at 52 huh? cant hate on that!

Wild you are havin those problems with the cheese. Im havin very similar issues with it as well right now,

those are in coir, and Im thinkin its either Ph or just general hunger as I was feedin pretty lean and only the largest plant shows this issue. Was supposed to flip today but now im thinkin that one should get a transplant first.

She sure is a finicky one!

Love the look on that chem d. Can see how fat that cola is gonna be in a few weeks.

Big ups, T, as always.
