Emeralds Hydro Cheese

Lady’s are looking great now. Really bounced back after all the deficiencies over the past 2 weeks. I got some snaps before lights came on. I’m very pleased with the canopy everything is pretty level except for the two fuckers in the back left of the first pic. In the space of 2 days they shot up over the canopy. They were touching the light when I went into them last night so iv gently bent them back down into the canopy. I don’t want to move the light over a few straggelers.



I was planning on lolipopping them yesterday but I might wait until the end of the week, if I leave the side branches and lower growth it might slow the stretch a bit. Iv order some Secret Jardin moneky fans for over the canopy so I’ll setup them up and strip away some larger leave to get better light penetration and air flow

Quick update

Gave them a heavy defoliation last night. Stripped all the lower growth and removed some fan leaves from the canopy to get more air moving. Hopefully it didn’t stress them too much

I like how clean this setup is.

Got some snaps of the bud development. Looking good for week 3 can’t wait until they start to pack on the weight. No noticeable smell coming from them yet but it’s stil early

Thanks man

Nice work

Got some Sativa phenos starting to strut there stuff. Was really hoping I didn’t have any but it looks like nearly all of the 12 are leaning to Sativa. Long stretchy stems and little bud sites.

Maybe 3 or 4 Indica dom

I hope so My last two grows I ended up at about .65gpw but those were all Indicas, short and stocky. Not sure how this will pan out. I defiantly won't be growing this cheese strain again.

Iv just received some DNAs Holy Grail Kush for the next one so hopefully ill have better luck with the phenos

If I were to be a nute, I will always stick to the use of the master grower like you. your grows are simply amazing

Hey man, thanks for the comment

How do you find the full range? Im missing one or two for the grandmaster but I'm planning on going with them all next time around to see if theres any major differences. Will be expensive up front but saves me figuring out different brands and dosages myself. I always end of given them too much of something and not enough of another lol

Nice groomed SCRoG, but the issue causing yellow leaves with dark spots should be tackled as soon as possible.

Thanks man, iv thankfully got rid of that issue. Touch Wood! It was a Calcium def caused by to much Calcium lol. I managed to catch it before it got really bad so hopefully it won't much impact on yield

Week 4 - Day 22 Flower

I’m flushing them again today with ph 6 water. Still seeing some Cal issues except its on some of the big leafs directly under the light. It’s hard to see without those HPS glasses it just looks burnt and yellow but they’re actually brown rusty looking spots. I don’t know where this coming from, not sure if I need to add some or if they are getting to much of it from somewhere.

Feed tomorrow will be 500ml Sensi Coco A&B, 200ml B52, 200ml Big Bud Coco, 200ml Bud Candy, 30ml Force X Silica, 26ml z7.

Res is at 6 pH, 2.2EC, temp 17C

Room temp 26C max, 16C night. 60% humidity.


Buds are starting to stack up nicely and pack on the frost

New gear has landed

Secret Garden Monkey fans for the corners of the canopy. Air is moving more evenly now. I DO NOT want bud rot again haha.

7 fans in total 1x 16in for around the room, 3x 8inch under each canopy and 3x 8in over each canopy. The tents are awkward so I can’t use all 16in, other wise life would be too easy these monkey fans clip to the poles so they work out nicely

Also picked up a new dehumidifier. The Dimplex 10l/24hr didn't have the power to bring humidity under 55% so hopeful the new 16l will do the job. Iv hooked it up to a drain pipe running to a 50l bucket so its always on. Those 2.3l tanks would fill up twice a day serious pain in the hole

Just bought one them fans today nust waiting for it to come. Any use?

Ah they're ok I was expecting a bit more air flow to be honest but they will get me out of a hole. I went with the 20w oscillating, which ones did you go for?
