yea pretty much what i figured.. just a shame to cut it without the flush. i got a couple going in with this next rack, gunna veg em an extra 2 weeks then add em to the rack, this way i will be able to get a flush in with them. as far as the SFV OG, ive got a mother going in soil just about big enough to take about 20 cuts off it.. what has been the average yield with the og? i think lion has been runnin it too.. i think im going to run less plants.. ive yet to hit 14 plants in a rack, the veg units just can handle 14 . i keep ending up with a few really big plants , then a lot of little ones who didnt have a chance at the light.. the size the GC is right now, it can hold 2 comfortably. i figure if i run 6-8 plants this size i should get atleast a pound. not sure if it will work tho. we will see with this next rack , i dont see why the GC couldn't yield 3 oz's per.. it will also be my first subject with my tree design experiment.. hoping for 1lb a plant. we shall see.. thanks for the help

Yo chef..... so far all my green crack plants have been mixed in with my 9 weekers. My first 2 green crack plants (the original clones) looked done at the end of 7 weeks but the rest of the plants needed the full 9. So what i did was i let them go to the end of 8 then i cut them without a flush. They were perfect and still tasted great! The GC is definately a 7-8 weeker. But my current flower system has just one gc that im taking all the way to 9 just to see how it does.

I have a cloner filled with all GC and they will be filling a rack in a few weeks...i will probably harvest them at the end of 8 weeks.

hope that made sense.

Yea so far ive only been running a couple og at a time and although they are very dank and the smoke is great,,they dont seem to yield very much. Small clusters of really dense buds from top to bottom but not big colas.
I couldnt make up my mind what to do about these 9-10 pre 98 bubba kush plants ive had in one of my cloners. This bubba takes forever to root so i was perplexed, flower the og or the bubba!!?
i was gonna throw these bubba outside but changed my mind (security issues) They are about 10 inches tall and ive topped them. I have 14 beautiful og kush plants at about 8 inches tall in my veg unit ready to go into flower too, so i had a decision to make.
This morning i decided that the og would probably benefit with the extra veg time so i am gonna send the bubba into flower next.

also, ive been noticing bugs in my veg cab. little tiny red things and some little brown ones. any ideas?

It gets tricky trying to juggle the different strains and sizes dont it? ive done full racks and racks with 8-10, and i think its fair to say that overall the yields are pretty similar. It really comes down to the strains.

That's no good, maybe ladybugs would be a good organic solution? They will eat all those little critters. But then ur left with tons of ladybugs...

This yellowing is driving me crazy! I really dont think its a heat problem beacuse alot of the leaves that are dried up and crispy are low and away from the light. Temps in the canopy are never above 86.

Could it be over fertilizing? or under?
It starts in week 5-6 and continues to get worse until the flush.

any thoughts and or recomendations will be appreciated.

In the words of Stewie Griffin, Say What!

Did you grow from seed? Or Clones? I would love to get some of those genetics!

Keep up the good work dirt

Thanks for the journal DH. I've been reading the stinkbud thread for two weeks and I'm only on page 177...its a serious project. Enjoyed following your grow as well, and learning from all you guys. I'm also a Cali 215 patient, and was wondering which club you got that bubba kush clone from? If you'd rather not mention it I understand too. Also, is that a nine week flower cycle? Thanks.

i would keep an eye on GAM in malibu and PO in van nuys, these places have dependable genetics, and the pre-98 is usually on the list..


just curious, how big was she when u put into flower??

also, im bout to flush, but not sure if i should yet.. trichomes are still clear and want them to be cloudy, should i start flush now, and they'll be cloudy at the end of it, or wait until they are cloudy then start the flush?

Weedtracker is a good source for finding strains. Yea chief i have been doing the 5-7 day flush and i usually wait until they start to turn amber before i start the sweet flush.
