Maj. Cottonmouth's Satellite Fuel Test Grow

[DHF]

Glad to have you here man.



I am very glad you like them, I will put another one up in a few days.

I got my blumats all setup tonight and I am testing out an overflow res using a stand pipe I built to keep a consistent water pressure on the blumat line. If it ends up working out well I will post a tutorial on how to make one.

PLEASE ......

Show an illustration of how a raised rez above the main 1 below with an overflow provided for consistent down pressure on the cones Maj......

Can`t see the video due to my proxy server but I`m sure shit`s kickin..

Peace...DHF........

This is heady blunts drawing that explains it very well and it is what started me thinking about how I would accomplish it. I think greenmatter build a stand pipe bucket but I can't find the pic of it so maybe I was high and imagined it I will post some pics soon so you can see how they are doing.

My three Satellite Fuel are at 17 days of flowering and I think they are looking nice. I got the blumats setup about a week ago and they are running very well. I trimmed all of the plants right before I shot the video below and removed a lot of leaves that were on the light side of the plants.

Looking great Maj. CM, I'm loving the videos with the crazy music SF looks very nice, she looks to have a fair stretch, she actually reminds me of the KarmaTrain cut that I run. I'm just finished giving my girls a major trim job too, 3 hours it took me to do that and take pics of each plant. Were around the same stage bro, my sativa tent is at day 16 and the big tent is at day 14.

Peace

Hey Major, what did you have to do to keep light from leaking thru the window a/c? You probably taped over the unit's display as well?

Oh Christ, when I first got it my buddy and I took the cover off and spent about 2 hours covering the styrofoam with metal tape but it still had a massive light leak. I was able to find some water based spray paint, Krylon H2O and sprayed it in through the vent holes and managed to get it light proof. There was or is a thread here where the OP advises using standard spray paint but this is a very bad idea because regular spray paint will melt styrofoam. For the display I cut a piece off of a soda box and taped it over the display so I can flip it up to get to the controls.

 

[Maj.Cottonmouth]

We are at 24 days of flowering.

Major, it's a real treat to see your grows. You've done so many, and I can't remember ever seeing the slightest bit of nute burn or deficiency on your leaves.

Obviously, you take the best care as possible of your plants and they show it! Respect!!

 

[Maj.Cottonmouth]

Thanks festivus, much appreciated.

Some new pics at 4 weeks of flower.

Getting very frosty already

Even the fans have trichs

Looking the picture of health, MCM! I hope you find some nice phenos, what is the lineage of SF?

I was reading through 40's SF thread again and I ran across this.

Name: Berry Sour Crème

Description:
A.K.A. Satellite Fuel, is a cross between an incredibly pungent Reservoir Galadriel male (Sourdiesel x C99) and Spice of Life’s Bluebonic (BS 2.2 x DJ Short Blueberry). The smell is quite similar to how blueberries and sour creme or a blueberry yogurt would smell. Pungent and ready to sell after only a couple of days in the jar for cure she has dense globular buds up the stalks with pointy tops that purple on the top, with some producing nice dark purple trichomes. My mom can be cut at 45 days easy with an awesome up high with 60% cloudy, 30% clear, and 10% amber trichomes. The high will get heavier post day 63 and the purple will be more defined, but I love the satellite fuel like high of the early phenos, hence the second name.
