W05 flower. 12 females on the go and 10 rooted clones.

Paranoia now a thing of the past, how liberating ..

Day 14 of the clones 6 showing healthy roots, the other cuttings were taken at different stages. Added some kelp extract.

Sorry to hear about your ordeal, its great that you've bounced back and growing again

Top notch, Sir. What's the size of your grow areas? Tell us more about you medium and feed regimen

What about hessian, the stuff used to make sacks?

Yes you can run the ballast at that, I did a few times (it was mine ) Is that you GB? How are things?

Good, clean and fresh

Mugshot, perhaps?

Thanks for the link, really crazy 6x daily, but he knows his variables and manages them to perfection, challenges conventional wisdom and pushes the limits, great strategy to up your game. Squeeze more "elbows" from watts lol

Just reduced from 18/6 to 16/8 to 12/12, no 24 hr dark period. Feel this schedule mimics nature and is less of a system shock

Couldnt attach pics to above post

Veg-W09, Flower-W0. Fired up the 400W hps and flipped to 12/12 Administered a strong concoction of organic and chemical nutes. Was quite impressed with 420sa's reference to the grower who fed 6 times daily to root bound trees, figured I'd give it a try considering 8/12 of my plants are already root bound and thirsty. Can't manage 6x, will settle on 2x daily. Got the 400W lamp working off 600W electronic ballast on medium setting. Any one have a recommendation on this? Room is filling out nicely, preflowers already evident on most plants, no sign of balls, but really haven't looked hard enough. Will perform some LST over the coming weeks as they stretch and show sex. Plan to produce a few seeds and crosses with the AK 48, if I have a worthy stud.. will see

So which is fairing better thus far? Where does one get humic acid? Looking nice and lush:-gthumb

Using ashes from the fireplace, mostly hardwood, no charcoal. Plants seem to be happy with, but hoping to see huge gains in flower. Truly organic. May apply a top dressing in three weeks. If you gonna make your own , make sure no treated timber or firelighters are used

Mid week 8 of Veg. Cut 10 lower and mid branches from most vigorous plants for cloning in newly built bubble cloner, featuring a 25W aquarium heater, Dynaroot provided the rooting hormones, as you can see a few wilted due to not making contact with water. Been reading conflicting recommendations as to the level of the clone in or above the water, decided to completely submerge tip and raise up once turgid and maintain water level at the level of the cutting to minimise rotting of the stem. Currently would be clones are under a 50w led scored for R90 Reduced light schedule in veg tent from 18/6 to 16/8, plan to flip 12/12 this weekend. Overall plants have reacted well to stress of taking cuttings.

High 420, How about some form of recognition or reward to those forumites who complete their diaries, concluded by a smoke report? Certainly will encourage forum activity and more captivating logs.

Cool stuff. That's the life, flyfishing on a Monday, hope you were high as well lol

Can really do with some bud porn, been months since toking the last of my stash

Man that's some deliciousness , plz post a pic if you don't mind. Anyways tomorrow I will finish up my diy veg tent, plan to post a how-to for those forumites on a budget, also those with flimsy tents will find this design way more rigid and strong, watch the DIY space....

Forgot to mention, I added about 1/2 cup of wood ashes to each pot, have read mixed reports, but in general, positive. Has anyone experience with ash or potash, when used as fertilizer?

High J. All dandy man, hope the same for you. Anything on the grow?

It's been 6 weeks of veg and I'm relieved to report that all's well, despite the low ambient temperatures, averaging around 15-20C. I've got 4 strains on the go AK-47, OG, BS and White widow. Medium is Coco based, with a melange of amendments, bat and wide bird Guano, mycorrhiza, bonemeal. Feeding with Nitrosol, Seagro and Kelp. Decided to supplement with inorganic nutrifeed in moderation, will update the forum with results. Repotted 4 plants into 30litre pots over the weekend, remaining 10 babies will remain in 8liter pots. It's been months since I smoked any dank, am really looking forward and to the fruits of this grow... Sent from my Redmi Note 3 using Tapatalk

Hey shadow and all. long time. Stopped growing in December last year, gonna get going again soon. Just moved house so everything's disorganised. Will start posting again soon. Your AK 48 was a pleasure to grow and smoke, beautiful tight aromatic nugs. Pity it's too late for a smoke report. Will see if any beans remain, will def be included in next grow line up. How did the BS work out for you?

Sup shadow, I'm on track for a 75 day flower, all in all about a 100day grow. Trichs seem to be clear to milky. Kudos on the AK next grow will attempt to scrog 6 plants in 35 litre buckets, due to the consistency in the overall growth rate and form. Gave them a final soaking with plain water, will harvest in exactly 7 days. I'm keen to know the yield from this grow, but compared to my first grow, I prefer growing in larger pots, as opposed to many smaller plants. The larger pots allow for less frequent watering and less chance of burn . Take care all and wish you and your loved ones safety over the crazy season. Peace
