Panama Red

Hey Krew. I’m new to Hydro. Trying an Old skool Strain of Panama Red. Sativa all day long. I love Gardening! Nothing like Homegrown Vegies! This is my First MJ grow, I’m trying a DWC, using Foxfarm Trio (hydro formula. Learned real fast! Thx) as well as the powder BB CC & OS. My babes are Feminized Strain 5 Weeks ole tomorrow (since the day I put seeds in Water) anyway no problems yet. I just curious about when to Switch from 18/6 to 12/12 for Flowering? Let me know what you think.

And Panama is a long flowering tall ass plant. Long flowering meaning more and more roots. You’re going to be giving this thing a gallon at a time before the end because that’s all the empty volume there will be left. I know for a fact because I’ve done it. Wise up here. Buy a 5 bucket RDWC and split this all up or as a newbie you’re to be on here all the time. “They’re touching my light and I don’t know what to do!”

Veg couple more weeks definitely
 
Sweet. I knew I made the RightChoice joining this Forum! Actually calculated, I put the Seeds in Water on March 7th making them 4 weeks. I have a 32” by 30”at 8’ tall area. I thought I might need to go a little bit bigger, as far as the DWC goes. In fact I just received my Water Pump today. Going to Convert into RDWC. I started with 4 Feminized Seeds from Growers Choice. I lost one during the Debating of Soil vs Hydro. I only had about 1/2 of what was needed for Hydro. I clicked on a thread during a search and said oh ya. I’m running 1 Galaxy Hydro 4th Gen 600Watt Full Spectrum light at the moment. I have a 2nd one I’m going to Install in a couple days. I can fit 3, 5 gallon buckets in tmy room. Might’ve a little squished. Therefore, I have a couple kick @$$ fans, I’m gonna rig to my Jig can’t wait to light that weed cig. So what exactly do I look for when I switch to Flower?

Smoked Panama red in the early 70s. Shit made wallpaper come Alive!
 
HotRodHarley. Yes I’m playing around with muh Nutes and the Parts Per Million, my Meter will Also Calculate the Electrical Conductivity. However, I’m curios on the Formula to Convert 700 Scale (FoxFarm) and My TDS/EC meter which uses the 500 Scale. My reading this Morning was 733. I Drained, Rinsed and Filled the Rez & Refilled with Fresh Distilled H2O along with the Recommended Dose of Nutes according to the FoxFarm Feeding Schedule, for week 5 except for Open Sesame. I’ve only fed it Nutes for 2 weeks. I’m Excited. Like a Kid in the Candy Store, especially like the one that gets to the Register and realizes he doesn’t have enough $ for the Candy lol

They are nice and green but very small for over 4 weeks. These are 15 days from being soaked in water. They are Paonia Purple Paralyzer being used for a seed run.

Right on Doug. Those look Good. I caught a couple mistakes. First off this is only the 2nd time giving Nutes. Let alone FoxFarm. Plus I’m Scared of Nuclear Burnout. I’m just getting my little duckie feet wet with Hydro. I’m used to giving my Beefsteak Tomatoes water only once a week in Soil with only Organic Compounds. This is one of the Koolest things I have ever done.(besides smokin it) also I’ve been playing around with my light up at 30” down to 16”. Yesterday I noticed that they aren’t stretching for the light. Therefore I decided to raise it a couple of inches. The biggest situation a had was. I’m using Coco Coir for the Medium. I started with peat pot from Wally World. Read a thread realized they’d be dead if I didn’t change the Bed. Looking back I was an airhead however, being used to soil fed I didn’t think twice that my grow would look like Judge Dread. That’s why I joined this hear forum. To get a piece of everyone’s head by reading a lot of thread. That being said they still ain’t dead.

sorry back to the topic. Coco coir, the Rez got a little shaken up, I lost have of my medium through the net pot. The 2 that are shorter,I had added some Lava Balls, and some more coco coir, for stability. This is after a successful transplant from Peat Por. So theseGirls have been stressed. That’s why I’m careful on the Nutes. Just tryna keep em alive. Plus I’m out here I the Mohave Desert. It’s already 98* inside my grow room. Ahhhhhb

Baked Beans Cannabis Seeds carries Ace. California.
That's good to know. But it seems they're sold out of everything but the Panama, Green Haze, and Honduras. I took a look at their site and they carry a bunch of stuff. It's like a US based Sensible Seeds or Attitude and they accept bitcoin. Not many of the US seed banks carry anything I want which is why I've never purchased seeds from any.

Josh usually has much more available. But this pandemic on top of multiple states going legal seems to have a lot of seedbanks with more sold out than available. I said just last week that if you see something you want to possibly grow in the next few years it might be wise to grab them anytime you see them in stock.

Panama Red? Where da hell you get them beans? Oh for the days of landrace sativas!!!
I got mine from Snowhigh. Check him out on IG and email for the current list. He has a ton of old school landrace stuff. He is a great guy right here in CA. He gives great deals too.
 
Hey Krew after a successful transplant into 5 Gallon Buckets.(hopefully) Thanks HotRodHarley. I just did a foliar spray along with FoxFarm Feeding according to thier Hydroponic Feeding Schedule week 4. Except I went 2 tsp of “Grow Big” instead of 3. This time I also added “Open Sesame”. Growth should come on full Speed. 2 of 3 buckets are using Air Pumps, and the other is using an water pump. I’m gonna get 2 more water pumps because I did not like the temperature of the Water, due to Friction.

also the last Picture has a New Starter.Look at the Medium to the right of Plant. Istarted with 5 seeds. Only saw 4 when I put them in Coir.
Thanks Krew
