Stretchys mixed flower

Recommended Posts

I have a tent full of plants, and a shortage of stash, so flower time ...

Mixed batch, originating from clones and seeds, although they're all pachamama stock, so just taking what I get. Theoretically, White Widow, Gorilla Glue #4, Super Lemon Haze, Super Silver Haze & Blue Kush. I say theoretically, because previous experience has shown they end up pretty much the same. Nice, but not what was expected. 

So, here goes....

Flowering : Week 1

Not much to report. First full week on 12/12. Manually watered, added 1.4EC powder feeding. Just ordered the necessary to convert the flower tent from Autopot drip system to a full ebb and flow. The autopot jams and overflows at the slightest impurity, which has then caused powdery mildew...

The tent is on a raised platform, so easy enough to convert, theoretically...

Flower tent, not pot

Update on the ebb & flow conversion. The 1.2 sq m tray arrived today, along with pump & drain fittings. Did a test run, some calculations, and realized my tent platform needs more support. That's quite a lot of water... 

Some early flower shots.

Update on the ebb & flow conversion. Everything is installed and working, just figuring out the timing. I don't have another digital timer, so may just do 10 mins every 2 hours on a switch timer, that's on the main daylight timer.

I will switch to fabric pots for next, and maybe switch medium to leca.

Flowering : Week 2

Ladies are doing well, seem to be happy on ebb & flow. But..., 5 mins after takin picture, the input pipe became detached.  I tried gluing under because if it's mounted properly, it doesn't drain fully, and I don't want pools of water in my tent, especially as it gets warmer and drives up RH. I'll try a different glue tomorrow, although I suspect the plastic tray is purposefully 'non stick'.

Flowering : Week 5

Not much to report, except that biological frost machine has gone into overdrive. Moved 1 ssh and 2 slh from main flower to veg tent, which had my chocolope competition contenders. The veg tent is now a small flower tent, and the chocolopes have been conscripted into main tent under those LEDs. Added about 100g of powder feeding, EC up to 1.3 from .4. No idea what ph is, but doesn't seem to matter too much,  and I'm the ultimate lazy grower :-stoned

Thanks all, yea, the smell is amazing. I vent into my workshop, and find myself there in the morning just to inhale. I don't get the individual notes, but my girlfriend correctly identified the 2 Super Lemon Hazes from the rest, so it's all there. I did some (late) trimming earlier in the week, dried the tiny immature flowers, and it's way better than anything I could source locally. (did i mention my stash is running low...)

Flowering : Week 7

All the plants are healthy, no problems. I'll give them a low feeding (1.2EC) today, then let them flush for last 2 weeks. They're mostly 7-9 week strains.

Hey @PsyCLown,  I use greenhouse powder feeding, long flowering, and just dose the main ebb-flow reservoir until desired EC. I normally take them up to 1.4, then let it revert (tank auto-fills clean water) to about .8-1 before dosing again. This time I'll let it revert completely for flush.
