a lil mo..
danke dankbuds..should stay interestin all through if I can help it..
hey easyrasta brah..np at all man..I dig the other place but ive been lookin around here for a bit and decided to spead it a lil..I feel like a postaholic over there cause I post so much..hehe ..hopefully this will be a relief and I can split the posts..as long as folks find it kewl it will keep goin.. Well heres the next set of pics and a lil more info on the process.. Lets take it from starters and clones section which I use 2 cabs for mainly..I use a c13 (1x3x6h) which is loaded with 4 x T12's duel shop lights and 1 100wt MH...This is used in the first 2 parts of my start and pre-veg setup. The 2nd level is used for a Bubble Cloner and to set newly transed clones.. The main level is for bean strats and older clones that are preped for veg.. My main Veg cab is a c24 (2x4x6h) and holds a 250mh and all the cabs run 24/0..I prefer this light scheduel cause it keeps temps constant and no break in growth.. I treat all the rockwool blocks with a solution of 80ppm (RO/tap @5.9 + few drops LK and Hydrogaurd) and let them sit and re-dry out befor useing them at all..Then when its time to start beans or trans clones they are resaturated and utilized..As mentioned I use Botanicare PBPro lineup with a few extra goodies for Boost in bloom. They go from Veg cabs to 600hps Bloom 4x4x8h and each gets its own 2-3gal solo DWC bucket thats only refilled every 4-6 days and each have a 4"in airstone in them. With pure Organics its not a good practice to flush heavy or over flush as it can actually damage the potency of the crop and alter the result quite a bit so my plants usually will have a normal yellowing or a slight yellowing as some retain a nice light green-yellow when finishing up but never get to the point of loosing all its sunleaves and yellowing.There are certain strains that just seem to shed their suns and this includes PRhino,3xBM mainly so far.. This method is only a year old for me and Im still working on it and the only extras I use is a product called BudBlaster in mid bloom to help with Tric production..PBP is a bit heavy on the K side and even when using their Soil Formula a bloom booster is still needed IMO.. Below is a basic outline of how I feed and how it would run thru a normal life cycle.. All PH will rside at 5.8-5.9 as the airstones I keep in the DWC system will cause the OPH to slowly rise over a few days so this acts as a natural buffer.. I also use 3 formulas to get the whole method to work best..PBP Grow for Veg and a combo of PBP Bloom and Soil-Bloom is used for Flower even tho its mostly Soil-Bloom as the formula is more suited for Mj.. Sprouts/Clones : 80ppm (4 drops of LK/gal @5.9 ph) Veg 2-6 wks+ : 250 - 350ppm Flower 0 wk : transition (this week doesnt count in Flower) Bloom wk 1-2 : 350-400ppm (Veg nutes) Bloom wk 3 : 350-450ppm (75%veg 25%bloom) Budset ending for Indo Dom. Bloom wk 4 : 400-500ppm (50%bloom 50% soil-bloom)-Sat Dom use this Formula for a extra wk..) Bloom wk 5-6 : 400-500ppm ( Soil-Bloom + BudBlaster(1.tsp/5gal)-If its a Sat Dom plant I usually extend this formula for a extra wk or 2..) Bloom wk 7 : 350-400ppm (Soil-Bloom) Bloom wk 8-10 (0.00 Flush week for Indo Dom) I know this may be confusing but any questions or input welcome..enjoy FOE20 ![]() Last edited by FOE20; 12-18-2006 at 05:08 AM.. |

some trim
Just finished trimming and hangin some Mandals Hashberry and Rushmans BKxBK/OGkush..Both yielded great for the room I gave them and the Kush really outdid itself..It also looks like a big Peace sign!..which is a first but it was a triploid that just formed this way..
The Hashberry is rather mild in potnecy so this was my last run with it even tho I have 1 final mom in bloom now.The Kush is staying for a while and has a unreal very strong Hash Coffee aroma..Commin up soon I'll be harvesting a BlueMoonshine hybrid made by Cone and a NL5 x LemonShark hybrid called BCBomber which is a local hybrid our coop work on.. It hard to compete around here with such a huge forum but I'll be lookin around here to keep myself busy.. FOE20 ![]() |

the goods
aloha Maj PotHead hmmmm good question sir.. I use a 2 or 3 gal bucket with hole just cut in the lid + a 4"in basket with bottom cut out to hold the plants in a wool block but the roots hang free..I use 3.3/4 x 2.5"in blocks and they fit in the 4"in baskets real snug..The roots basicly hang directly into the water with is topped off in each bucket every 3-5days pending on how fast the plants drink and summer or winter being they intake more durring summers..
Anyway theres only a 4"in airstone in the bucket with the water/nutes..thats it..so its not really a Bio-sys or Bucket cause I thought thoes were fed by a central rese wheer each of mine are different as I run perpetual plants..Some 1-2 wks in bloom some 4-5wk and some 7-9wks so Im not dedicated to a single rese and can actually alter each bucket to the plant or strain..Ive only done DWC for a good year and guess Ive been quite lucky as most have major issues at some point..Im hooked.. Heres Bogs BMRocks in bloom bout 2wks and a Male BubbaK x BubbaK/OGkush from Rushamn that Im using for some breeding..Already had a BMRocks boy and harvested his pollen..Plan on makin some F.2's from the BMRocks but wana puff the momma to see how good it really is and the traits it holds.. Got alot goin on really so I'll try to post some kewl soon.. FOE20 Last edited by FOE20; 01-03-2007 at 02:15 AM.. |
