:tiphat: Thank you lady and gentleman.

DAT - The Vitality is going long term. SLH will come down around 70 days - give or take. Hows your girl doing? That would be way cool to sample and compare.
I supply the same friend I mentioned a few posts back with clones, but cant compare the product with him. Hes got a lot of work to do when it comes to drying, curing and storing unfortunately. Ill be 'round to check your art out.

For me Stanky, budding is the most exciting part. Id have to put it on par with the sampling - of which I do a lot of! :D

---------------------------------------

Think Rendezvous tricked me, might be a boy. :(

Ill try to get some veg/clone photos up in the AM.

Thanks mang. Oooo, I know! Variable speed transmission! Right!? No? :dunno:

It def takes more time to feed. You could fix that with some automation. Im small enough to not need to. I wouldn't mind if these yogis were automated. They should get 4-a-days, but a guys gotta sleep, so the middle feeding gets to sit in a puddle.

Im making it easier on myself now. I got a 5 gal spring water jug to mix up my nutes. I put in the base nutes, hygrozyme, cal/mag and silica. I bubble it for about an hour before I need it, mostly to do the stirring for me. Ever try to shake 40 lbs of water? Its not easy. I pour it into my watering can, add floralicious if its for bud and adjust the ph. Saves me from mixing from scratch every day and lasts 2 1/2 - 3 days, for now.

Soon to start mixing in some black strap for the flower girls. Maybe 1/2 tsp per gal every other feed - Im not sure. I want to give the hygro something to work with during weeks 5-7. Why those weeks? I dunno.

Seriously though, sticky, get a little brick of coco and try it out on 1 plant. I think youll like it.

MM f2 - In serious need of more rootspace, the pot feels solid.

And theres 15 clones - 7 different strains. 3 are my keepers, 3 are totally foreign to me and 1 should be a pheno I haven't seen from a SLH x MM cross made a couple years ago.

you know I just might do that, Once winter hits and boredom sets in I have a couple of runs to do (Train Wreck and Holy Grail) big #'s for me in side (20-30) and keeping the container size down and doing some scrog or sog just might help. Plus I want to play and do a yogi cup or two.
Gotta switch gears with coco and be more proactive with PHing than I presently do with organic. (you know like with a variable speed trany..lol)

My grow? Your grow! Your SLH is insane! Wow! How long did you veg that Amazon? What are her attributes? Stem thickness, trich coverage, etc.

If organic is working that well for you, why would you think about switching? Don't get me wrong, experiment. A couple in coco to compare would be something I would watch.
Would you still grow organically in coco? It could get spendy buying nutes just for look-sees.

Gonna do the yogi next round, eh? This is where I can sing the praises of coco. The last time I was in, I got 6 g from my 6 oz yogi. Which isn't bad. Think about how many ounces are in a gal - g per ounce - 128 g per gal - that's 4 1/2 oz per gal of medium. Aaahhh... Imagine if it were that easy :woohoo:
But I haven't attested to coco yet. Im guessing that Ill get at least an oz total from the yogis. So lets play it safe and say I do twice as well as the 1st time. Extrapolating up to 1 gal of medium, that would be 9 oz!
Of course, I wouldn't expect anything remotely close to that from a gal of anything. Basically a long winded way of saying, I see the potential for increased yields.

Yes your right, organic (soil) has been good to me and would not give up on it.
But I do like to play, coco would be my next choice but probably not organic well not 100%. Mainly for the yogi cup but yes a side by side would be in order if I considered the switch, Your results cant be argued with gpOz would be awesome in a reg grow.

Kicking the boys out huh? Any stand outs? they look to have decent structure, I've been on a big kick on growing out and harvesting pollen from the "stand outs".
I dont want to be growing like this summer and not have decent pollen to carry on my fav.s, ahhh dropped the ball on that one this summer (W.Rhino) she wasnt everything but she was something. still got her clone going well......... kinda, chop chop, timber hope a reveg sticks.
Oh but who am I kidding, I have tons to run/test (Khalisi (SG), new york cookiesXFreak(ojd), my Train Wreck, Holy Grail, ect.. need more room!

Thanks Wildgrow.

The thing is I´ve got some seeds in the fridge:

Chocolate chunky munky f2.

Deep Chunkolate X Outlawz Gorilla Grape :chin: no much idea.
¿Have you grown DChunkolate#2 allready?

I´ll check Cannacopia anyway.
:tiphat:

I have not harry. These will be the 1st. I bought a few 'chocolate' strain crosses a couple years ago to try out. I just finally got around to popping a couple seeds.

Kicking that boy out. No need to play with unstable genetics when I don't have a clue as to what to expect from the initial f1s. For all I know, LCxMM is pure garbage.

Very healthy Art, thanks :D

The yogis are exceeding my expectations. I cant keep up with the feedings though - theyre cannibalizing their fans.

Welcome aboard.

Took 49 pics of crap tonight. Culled Vitality due to nanners. I was probably feeding her way too hard. Sucks cause she already had a lot of bud. No time for that nonsense. Got another DChunkolate screaming to get in there anyway.

Hi Wildone,
I vegged my sLh for a month. it was the first clone I ever made. she barely survived. She was from bagseed Green House Fem sLH seed I bought back in 2008. I started the seeds inside in the tent. Then thinkin them all male moved them outside to discover 2 were female. I cloned one in rockwool, took FOREVER to root .. Then dumped her into my waterfarm system . Just tonite I had to place a second scrog screen down on her massive buds because of the density and weight. Just pure fuckin luck from a seriously dysfunctional rookie here. lol . I just tried cloning my 8 lb hammer, Blue pit and Fireball and they are all seriously wilting right now.
ill edit this post and show you her stem thickness and trichome coverage at your request. I will work on the trichome coverage picks for you.

True DAT! ;) Mine was tricky to clone too. She just takes a little longer than most. Don't worry about wilting. Some stuff can look past due and then 2 days later its standing again. I take a couple extra cuts when cloning something stubborn. Success through numbers.

Couple of pics for y'all to alleviate the lameness of this thread. Im waiting for shit to start swelling. Everything took off fast but seem to have stalled. Perhaps from the suspected fungus gnats. Yup, got some little bastard fliers. Cant do much for the flowering girls at this point. Soaked the veggers and clones with triazicide. This is war.

SLH doesn't want her picture taken - feeling self-conscious I guess.
