blue cheese 12/12 from seed oxypot style

skotty · Jun 1, 2010

ok a little bit about myself

im a uk grower and i only grow hydro in bubblers my past grows have consisted of onyx and mi5 and i was impressed with both starins.. ive decided to do a 12/12 from seed to compare my results

my setup is

hydrolab 120x80x180
cfl 250 red and cfl 300 watt dual spec
oxypots
canna aqua nutes full range

12/12 from seed is very similar to autos where they show sex around 3 weeks

i currently have 2 females left which are now flowering and ill post some pics to bring every 1 upto speed

skotty · Jun 1, 2010

they sexed around day 23

male was removed from the grow

skotty · Jun 1, 2010

skotty · Jun 1, 2010

Looking GREAT man, I want to do 12/12 with some FEM. Bubba Kush and Super Lemon Haze seeds i got! Def. gonna be following this one man! How long in total do you think these are gonna take??? they showed sex at day 23 are you gonna let em' go for 8 weeks in flower?

P.S. gotta love the CHEESE man!

skotty · Jun 1, 2010

yeah im here for the full duration mate they will be ready when they are ready

blue cheese takes 8-10 week flowering its the first time ive grown this strain so im looking forward to see what they produce

im also carrying out an experiment where 1 bucket has canna boost and the other 1 doesnt just to see if it makes a difference in the end product im still gonna be using pk13/14 when i think the time is right

feel free to pull up a chair and join me

*puff*
*pass*

peace

I def. got a chair pulled up! Im guessing cannaboost is you nutes along with pk13/ 14! Who makes those i havent heard of them! Im using FloraNova grow big for veg, and Advanced Nutrients sensi bloom A+B and liking the results!

Ive smoked some regular cheese! But never had the Blue Cheese, is it a blueberry mix or something? Sounds Delicious.

auto blue cheese?

Iron Lungs · Jun 2, 2010

naw im pretty sure he is doing a Reg. "strain" just doing 12/12 from seed

skotty · Jun 2, 2010

i use canna nutrients which consists of

rhizotonic
canna aqua vega a + b
canna aqua flora a + b
canna boost
canna pk 13/14

blue cheese is basically the exodus uk cheese cut crossed with blueberry if you have never tried the original uk cheese i would recommened it to anybody its proper dank and has a knockout stone.

blue cheese auto?? no its not an auto its 12/12 from seed which means as soon as it has appeared above growund its been on a 12 /12 light cycle. growing this way is exactly the same way as growing autos they will sex at around 20-25 days and then straight into flower.
the grow period should be exactly the same as autos takeing between 8-12 weeks to finish from seed im currently on day 33 from seed.
any seeds can be grown this way i was doing it as an experimen to compare against the mi5 and onyx i have grown in the past to see if i can match or better my yields

i got 1 oz from and mi5 in 8 week grow
and i got 1 1/2 oz from onyx in 12 week grow
i grow with cfl and im waiting on a new light setup as i know i can improve on these results in future grows

thanks for tuning in

peace

Sorry thought you was doing a 12/12 auto from seed. I got some blue cheese, blue cheese x amnesia & blue cheese x amnesia x Mi5 mmmmmmmmmmm

Are you doing a side by side with a auto under the same light to see which does best?

skotty · Jun 2, 2010

autos wont grow on 12/12 from seed without losing some yield autos are best grown on 18/6 20/4 light cycle
as i said im waiting on new lights to come through and as soon as they do i will put up an auto diary consisting of big devil onyx mi5 and il diavolo as i know i could achieve around 2 oz a plant with these strains in a short grow time

my previous onyx

my auto mi5

Iron Lungs · Jun 2, 2010

man those look MIGHTY TASTY! what was the smoke like on that ONYX???

skotty · Jun 2, 2010

the onyx is very potent an has a really nice fruity taste i would recommened her to anybody along with the mi5

im on another forum in the uk and 1 of the guys has just completed a grow using oxypots and 400watt hps bulb growing an onyx and lets just say he raised the bar on what that plant can do in a 12 week grow he pulled a massive yield from it was truly stunning

im looking forward to growing it again and getting monster results

im not sure if im allowed to post links but if you want the link i can pm it you

peace

Iron Lungs · Jun 2, 2010

yeah man you will have to get your post count up to 50 (to be able to PM) but i would love to see his grow!

Krull · Jun 2, 2010

Brilliant bro, 12/12 from seed is something everyone should give a try.
A lot of new growers here start with autos for speed/easyness but even if i love autos i think that skipping regular strains they obviously miss a lot.

Best luck

=K

skotty · Jun 2, 2010

yeah cheers krull appreciate the feedback

yeah iron lungs as soon as i hit 50 ill pm it you it was a jem of a plant it made my onyx grow look tiny in comparison lol

peace

dargo · Jun 3, 2010

Looking healthy

hows the smell? all the ones I grown STINK!!!!! even in veg. is it a blue cheese you or someone you know made, or is it from a seedbank? do you know what blueberry was used?? I never got to much blueberry phenos come through, but im seeing/smelling blueberry with the blue cheese x amnesia (f1's)

Blue Cheese was created, first by selecting a Blueberry male
from the entire collections of several different breeder versions of Blueberry.
The selected male was then crossed with our proud mother, and the backbone of many of our breeding projects - the original UK Cheese.
From these crosses, a male with extremely fruity characteristics
was chosen as the father of our Blue Cheese!

Parents:
Sativa / Indica Hybrid (25% Blueberry, 75% Cheese)
Flowering time: Indoors = 8 - 10 weeks
Outdoors = End of Oct.
Sensory experience: Highly euphoric, very functional.
Smell: A sweet, fruity, tarty, berry scent with that
recognised musky undertone of the original Cheese.
Taste: Potent, Blueberry, fresh taste.

we have this strain all the time in the uk as the original uk cheese and blue cheese is popular amongst growers and smokers this side of the pond
the blue cheese that we have on a regular basis always has the sweet smell of bluberry with the underlying smell of the dank cheese

i can post up some blue cheese bud shots of what we get over here if you like
