Hammerhead's Flashbang- C x Firestorm #18 test grow

Here are the girls a week later, almost ready for the bigger light. All are looking really healthy and uniform except for the three runts. I'll probably just throw those in the garden with the veggies. Might as well give everyone a shot at life. The remaining 19 will sit under an HLG 320 dimmed to 2-300 ppfd until they can be cloned. The clones will be flowered, and the mothers will be cloned again for selecting any keepers. After each pheno is secure, mothers will be moved outside and up potted.

Will grab a chair to watch. By what i see in the threads of 'Free ur budshots' and 'Frostiest buds' Hammerhead strains look very promising.

 

[Boyd Crowder]

Awright! the previews are looking good-cant wait for the feature!
My testers arrived last night - bolo my new thread

 

[OrgAeroMan]

Right on, will do, Boyd!
I'm really excited to see what the future holds for these lovely ladies. I lowered the light a couple inches, so now they are about 100-125 ppfd instead of barely 100 for some on the outskirts. This weaker light is going to be switched out, after a day or two more of healthy growth.

Would love to test some too...

Hey Tech, you never know, these are the first ones I have done for anyone. Try to show people your skills, and maybe someone will bite. There's only really one way to find out sometimes, you have to ask. The worst anyone can say is "no", or maybe "Go fuck yourself", lol! But, I think you'll find everyone around here is pretty cool if you get to know them.
Thanks for showing interest, and stopping in! Good luck, man

I dropped the light a mere 2" and induced some light stress on three of the little ladies. I immediately raised the light back up and clipped off the damage. I also put the three more sensitive ones on the floor until they recover. They should be fine, I just have to let them take their time. The rest are going along swimmingly and are just about to kick off some accelerated growth

 

[techattack]

They look all very similar in structure/leafs, nice.

Here are the girls after their first feeding other than the pre-charged medium. 1tsp. EcoScraps 5-5-5, watered in with 300 ppm fish emulsion. There is some new growth on the light stressed girls, so they shouldn't be that far behind.

Looking very happy plants.

 

[OrgAeroMan]

Here are the ladies before and after their up-pot to 1 gals. The root growth is explosive and the stems are pretty thick for their size and age. Everything seems to be going great, except the clones in the background that have suffered some pretty cold nights lately. I ran out of mix for the last three light stressed ones, but I'm about to mix some more and get those too. I removed all of the damaged foliage, and they look to be catching up to the rest. After a few days in their new homes, I plan to micro-top them so I can get two clones from each. One to keep and one to flower. The mothers will either be put outside, or used for further clone production.

Looking good OAM, at how many nodes do you microtop? And do you root the top?

 

[techattack]

Happy plants. Keep it up bro.

 

[OrgAeroMan]

Looking good OAM, at how many nodes do you microtop? And do you root the top?

Juuuust the tip, of the apical maristem that is Maybe only 1/4" or so. I want the next two nodes down for clones, but don't try to root the micro top.

Thanks Tech!

I got the last three potted, and crammed into the tent. I have to share the space with the 2x4' cloner. I think I'm only going to do one more run with that big mofo, and then they can spread out.

Here are the ladies today, they have been fed 1T/gal Alaska Fish Emulsion with 1 tsp. Epsom salts. They looked a bit hungry for N and Mg, as they were searching for food in their new pots. They have been micro topped as you might be able to see in pic 2. They are getting pretty beastly and roots are blasting out of the drainage holes Lots of branches are elongating already, and that was only three days ago. The humidity has been pretty high (high 60s and low 70s) but they seem to be loving it, and I only have to water every other day. Soon the dehumidifier will be a necessity

 

[OrgAeroMan]

Top dressed with 2tsp EcoScraps 5-5-5, and watered with 3/4 strength Alaska Fish Emulsion. It shouldn't be long before I can take clones. It looks like they could also use the extra room. I just need to get some more labels in the next day or two, and change the cloner rez.
The growth is super even and very fast. The roots were even fuzzier looking, but they got a touch dry a few days ago. These have to be the least finicky seed plants I have dealt with. Even the runts have made it outside, and though small, still look pretty healthy. One was large enough to clone today and leave 4- 6 nodes. The other two are just going to stay largely experimental, and possibly revenged if they end up blowing my mind.
I'm very excited to see what we'll find

Looks good

 

[Hammerhead]

Are you getting any aromas yet?.. All of the ones I have are becoming an issue from the stank. I don't use a scrubber in veg. Im gonna have to hook up a scrubber out there..

Great canopy.
