Awesome thread! I'm curious as to why the switch from the tamisium to the BHOgart? Any runs with the BHOgart yet?

The tamisium that fits a pound is like 10k and the BHOgard is less than 2k. Just comes down to money. I like my 2oz tami though. No runs yet cause Snypette is handling the oil now.

Bedroom RDWC Update
Day 14 Flower

picture.php



The new 10 bucket system is doing well. Some of the plants at the ends tops didn't get as tall as I would have liked compared to the rest of them but the majority of the tops are in a good range. The majority of the tops right now are 30-33" and it looks like the plants really slowed down the stretch with these new techniques that I'm using. I think it was due to a combination of doneits pinching technique and me moving the lights lower to the plants. Before I used to keep the lights in place at the top of the ceiling and never move them. That's pretty much what happened to pieces of the outsides of the plant tops. I kept the light a little too close where the ends couldn't get the light because it should have been a few inches higher at 24" when I was at around 20". Next time I will keep my plants a little higher in the first 2 weeks to get the stretch on the outsides and then I will lower the light down to 24". I think 30" would have been good for the first 2 weeks. I made a change to my formula where now instead of Liquid Kool Bloom, I use Powder Kool Bloom at the rate of 1 teaspoon for every 10 Gallons on top of 6/9 mL Micro/Bloom. You will notice plants around the system that are in soil. Those are Snypettes and are much smaller plants so don't be fooled by the outsides. Those are not part of the system.

And the new tent crop is also up and running. Not all plants in the tent are in the at the same days of flowering but the oldest are at Day 14 Flower and the youngest are at Day 1 Flower and they are all Motorbreath's and StarDawgs:

I'm pretty positive that 2 of my MOMs were mislabeled. Oregon White Lightning and WD-40 seem to be mixed up with the labels. The reason why I'm pretty sure is because I have leaf variegation or necrosis on the OWL and those traits should be showing on the WD. It is possible that I'm having pH problems in my soil that could have caused that problem to any plant but another friend who has the same batch of mislabeled cuts with my labels is also showing the same traits only in the same mislabeled OWL. I won't be 100% sure until flowering but I would say that I am 90% sure right now.

I had a similar problem, and it ended up being bm's. Stayed on one strain for a year...I had no idea the entire time..They stayed on one strain that I never flowered, just kept in in veg. as soon as I flowered it they spread all over the place..

Im not saying you have bm's but Id love to see a close up pic of the underside of the leaves showing the traits..

They have been sneaking up on people all over the world it seems like..

Discoloring around the edges, and leaves twisting at the ends are good indications of bms..

If its early you can try swirskii mites. some folks have good luck with heat treatments and others have used essential oils. Personally. nowadays I would chuck and start over if I had em..the toxins they leave in the plants can cuz "dud" harvests..

cal-mag fixes what your calling necrosis .. and by rubbing the stems , and smelling your fingers , the white lightning smells WAY different then wd40 .. hope that helps

Thanks. My pH was way out of line. That was the problem. Cal Mag wont fix anything when it is being locked out at my low pH levels.

Well folks, internet had to be shut down for a while so I have to go back off grid for reasons I can't discuss. Happy Growing folks! May your harvests be as plentiful as mine!

Final Tent Update
Everything from the tent crop is curing in jars. I only expected to get 1.25 pounds on this soil test crop but got much more which was a nice surprise! I gave out samples to 3 people and many samples turned out to be more potent to my ChemDD BYTC that was grown in the same tent. The BYTCH's could have been grown much better and only got minimal light compared to the rest of the plants. I also started my flush way too early on the BYTCH's. All 3 StarDawgs are very potent and I need more time to figure them out. All the Motorbreaths were also pretty potent with the #6 being the most potent of the bunch. That doesnt mean that she is the most potent and I would have to grow them all again and dial in much better to bring out their potency. My keepers will be:

Motorbreath #6
StarDawg #6
KK StarDawg
StarDawg #9

Here are the final yields:

2 x BYTCH's: 195 grams (97.5 g/ plant)
StarDawg #6: 81 grams
Motorbreath #6: 75 grams
KK StarDawg: 67 grams
Motorbreath#1: 66 grams
Motorbreath #7: 65 grams
StarDawg #9: 53 grams
Mototbreath #2: 46 grams
Motorbreath #5: 39 grams
Final Total: 687 grams

So I basically got 1.5 pounds for a test crop. If I had 9 BYTCHS in the tent instead, I would have easily got over 2 pounds. Smoke reports coming in a month.

The reason ive been off line is because the screen to my 2005 17" Apple laptop broke. A lot of my work is inside this computer so hopefully I can see it somehow. ipads suck. So slow to type.

Other than that things are great! Smoking KKSD which is getting real nice in the cure.

I made a really nice scrog! You guys will love it. Took me a while to find a way that also looked nice and stayed tight. Ill show you when I can. From this point on im scroging all rdwc systems. Its pretty amazing. SuperCropping in Veg is also part of the master plan. Those who havent tried should experiment and make observations.

Snypette went out and got a tv over here. No channels but a dvd player. Just finished watching my first thing in 4 months. The old version of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Still miss CNBC.

As far as the Tent Cured Crop, Snypette will have to elaborate on which phenos are better than others because she has the entire cured crop that I jarred up. The only thing I didnt give her was KKSD because I liked her so much. I have another soil crop with most of the phenos coming down in the next few weeks so I will know more myself later. Im trying to dial in things better to see what these plants have to offer. After the cure they all seemed pretty nice and the effects are different so its hard to say which ones are the most potent. I dont want to speak too soon so this could take a while. All the StarDawgs are keepers right now. Motorbreath #6 is also being kept because of her vigor and dense bud style. She is also potent but I dont like the effect of the high. Kind of makes me paranoid. I wanted to keep Motorbreath #7 but I ran out of space she grows fairly slow. I still have a chance to recover other phenos when Snypette tells me which ones made the list. The outside testing has been very conflicting between many phenos which shows that different people like different things but they all say they are all potent and tasty. Id say my BYTCH may be the tastiest out of all of them but she is real tasty all the time. StarDawg #6 was my favorite for daytime. She doesnt have the chem smell like her sisters.

WD-40, Oregon White Lightning, The White / Triangle and Nag Champa Kush are all in flowering and doing well after 3 charges. Nag Champa has some floppy branching compared to the rest. Going to be an interesting run!
