It's been a real mission doing both hydro and organic this run. Looking forward to putting all my focus on organic. I haven't been doing everything I've wanted with the organics that are finishing now so I look forward to getting a solid regime going in the future. I'm also gonna start feeding with biobizz bloom after about week 4 or 5 now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
420SA Posted December 7, 2018 Author Share Posted December 7, 2018 How goes folks I harvested the A.S.D, Blue Kush and P.O #1 on the 23rd of November. 11 weeks into flower.(77 days). The P.O #2 and P.O #3 were harvested a few days later on day 81. Im assuming that this harvest was delayed by the intense heat we experience here over October and November. To be honest none of them looked 100% ready to harvest but the trich's told a different story so I worked according to that. The blue kush was a flop of note. Extremely airy bud but it actually tastes good and I could very well make BHO with it. I still managed to yield 68g's from it. The A.S.D and P.O #1 are now jarred. The A.S.D produced a total of 88g and the P.O #1 produced 77g which I'm really happy with for my 2nd organic grow. (zero feeding). The P.O #2 and #3 are still hanging up and will be jarred on the weekend. I think the P.O #3 (hydro) will yield more than the organic #1 but of course that doesn't conclude anything as they are not from the same seed, she does look decent though. The P.O #2 was a bit underwhelming and as you'll see in the pic, still looked largely unfinished. Here's some pics on the day of harvest. I had some better pics on my phone but unfortunately that got stolen... Dried bud pics to come! Amherst Sour Diesel Purple Orange CBD #1 - Organic. She actually to started push through some of her purple regardless of the sub 40 degree heat Purple Orange #2 Organic Purple Orange CBD #3 - hydro 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
420SA Posted April 7, 2019 Author Share Posted April 7, 2019 Have been testing Organics Matter's newly released living soil on this HSO Amherst Sour Diesel. She was transplanted into the soil just before flower. I'm genuinely impressed with this soil. Have not used a single drop of bottled nute on her. Gave her one watering with coconut water. Otherwise humic, fulvic and EM. She's 7 weeks through flower now Gonna be testing a few other strains in the same mix as well. Including a Royal Queen Seeds Chocolate Haze and a Delicious seeds Sugar Black Rose. Will keep you guys updated! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was a freebie I also have a Rare Dankness Scotts OG regular and a Rare Dankness Starkiller reg on the go. Pretty sure the preflowers on the Starkiller are showing male though Scotts still to be confirmed. Had some real shit luck with the Scotts OG. Bought 3 regular Scott's OG seeds and only 1 of the 3 germed. That doesn't help things when you're buying regular seeds... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
420SA Posted April 8, 2019 Author Share Posted April 8, 2019 Are these male preflowers? Im not 100% sure 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jland Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Looks almost like they could be, protruding quite a bit. I'd definitely still wait a bit tho, have had pistols before where I thought balls where starting.

420SA Posted April 10, 2019 Author Share Posted April 10, 2019 I brought in about 8 ladybugs into my tent just over a month ago to control a spider mite issue I've been battling for a while now. Thought it was a complete fail seeing as I havent seen them since. Was surprised to see this little guy/girl pop up last night 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
420SA Posted August 13, 2019 Author Share Posted August 13, 2019 Thought I'd give an update on what's happening my side grow wise 3 different strains running in my tent at the moment, soon to be 4. Back left - Rare Dankness scotts OG in the Organics matter living soil Back right - Humboldt seeds Amherst Sour Diesel. Also in the OM soil Middle row left - Rare Dankness scotts OG in my own soil Middle row right - Humboldt Seeds Amhest Sour Diesel in my own soil Front - Rare Dankness Starkiller OG in my own soil Delicious Seeds Sugar Black Rose soon to enter in some more OM soil. The Scotts OG's are now 2 and a half weeks through flower. They are clones of the same plant. They were transplanted into their respective soils a week before flip. They came from a regular seed The Sour Diesels are 2 weeks through flower. Also transplanted a week prior to flip. I'm pretty sure I put them in the flower tent too soon but that's no major issue. The Starkiller OG has been in flower for 4 weeks and 4 days now. She came from a regular seed. Only bought 2 regular seeds of this strain, thank fuck the gamble paid off. The first seed I germed and grew out turned out male. So i germed this seed with a clenched nort till she showed sex! As you can tell I'm running the same strains in my soil and the organics matter soil. This wasn't initially intended but I've essentially got a comparison going here. They are clones of the same plants and were very similar in size before being transplanted into their respective soils. Game on! Will do my best to keep you guys updated The Starkiller OG 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsyCLown Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Nice! Are you / do you plan on giving nutes with the OM soil and your soil? Or are you hoping for them to be super soils and not require any additional nutes? I personally give nutes with my OM soil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna hold out till week 5 or 6 unless the plants show defs before then. I have yet to use FPJ's so that's what I aim to feed with when the time comes.

How do you ensure you get the nitrogen high during veg and then the phosphate high during flower? Curious to see how that works out for you, please keep us posted!

Look into Korean Natural Farming, a lot of home organic growers are heading in that direction. It basically relieves you of any need to buy commercial bottled nutes and inoculants. Everything can me be made with what you have at home or from the supermarket. 23 minutes ago, PsyCLown said: How do you ensure you get the nitrogen high during veg and then the phosphate high during flower? That comes down to getting your amendment ratios right in your soil. Couple that with a soil that has cooked well and the plants will use what they need when they need to. That being said, I start my clones/seeds off in a very simple mix - 1 part EWC, 1 part peat moss and 1 part perlite (I dont even feed this mix) and this mix hosts them comfortably till 1 week prior to flipping, when I'll transplant them into their final pots with the super soil. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smelly Joe Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Hell yes. Subscribed. I've been seeing those words lately.

YourStonedBuddy Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 That comparison you have is pretty interesting. Keen to see it unfold, start posting more updates! Also, how many cycles have those pots done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Life has just been too hectic of late to manage the forum and be able to post updates etc. Things are slowly settling a bit so will defs try get more updates in. Here comes the next one The black pots from gthydro are on their 3rd cycle now. Some of the FF pots are on their 4th cycle now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
420SA Posted August 20, 2019 Author Share Posted August 20, 2019 Starkiller OG at day 32 Flower Full shot with the rest. The stretch is well underway with the Scott's OG's and ASD's. Pretty much neck and neck with the different soils at the moment. Will try get a shot not under the HPS next week Just a word on the environment. Just running 2 x 400W HPS side by side in a 150 x 150 tent. Currently using a makeshift plastic sheet catchment tray as my mate miraculously lost it somehow. Still can't fathom that... Two days prior to this photo they all received a dose of liquid humic. Next up SST 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My ventilation works in a loop. Active intake into my flower tent with a 6" inline. The flower tent is then "linked" to my veg tent with 8" ducting which is the ducting you see in the bottom right of the pic below. In the veg tent there's an 8" inline pulling air back outside. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

420SA Posted August 29, 2019 Author Share Posted August 29, 2019 Quick update Last week they were given a feed with coconut water and last night they were given just straight water. Pics taken 2 nights ago. These are the 2 A.S.D's side by side. My soil on the left, OM soil on the right. These 2 are pretty much neck and neck. Nothing between them really. I've been running this strain for more than a year now and she always reminds me why I keep her. She grows so nicely. Smokes great too of course. The 2 Scotts OG's. OM soil on the left, my soil on the right. Bit of a difference with these 2 that has developed. The plant in the OM soil is a little on the lighter green side. Less overall growth too which tells me that she's most likely a little hungry. She's still happy but might've been craving a bit more N for the big explosive stretch which this scotts OG likes to do. This cultivar is actually best suited for a scrog I reckon. Im kinda in 2 minds whether to feed her. Gonna just watch her for the time being. The Starkiller OG. 1 day short of the 6 week mark. Starting to stack nicely. She's a short plant, wasn't sure how she was gonna stretch, played it on the safe side and she didn't stretch much at all so she wasn't meant to be this short. Lesson learn't for the next round. Cheers guys 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
