My 1st BubblePonics

Right on dude. I have now given them haircuts.. there really wasn't too much foliage on the bottom of the two KF's, because I cloned the shit out of them.. but gunther has 8 bud sites that look legit

Hey I am a little worried that the light from the clone booth may be affectin their 12/12... there is very little light, (but some, none of it direct) that reflects off the ceiling and kind of creates some ambiance in the flower room. It is probably equivalent to a full moon or something, but idk. They seem to have developed super calyxes. All three of them are females for sure, I know that now. The hairs coming off the calyxes are monstrous!

Anywayz here are the girls sleeping. Colors are seeming to come back more and more to Emma Watson.. thinkin that it is having to do with the food increase- yall called it

also some pics of the bud I am smoking right now...

Good to hear bro. It blows my mind that outdoor and greenhouse goes for top dollar out there, because that is what you got in your hands. Where the ppm's at now?

Well we both know I have tried to convince you to hook it up - but helping me to help myself is friggin cool too teach a man to fish kind of deal...
580ppm - Morpheus, the shittiest looking out of the three (except maybe gunthers crazy leaf syndrome) has its leaves going back up again! also slight burnage on the tips. anyways its looking like he wont produce jack shit, but IS developing some trichs from the looks of things on his toppers. Emma also looks like maybe an 8th of weed, lol. probably less all dried.. might have a nice joint if all three bloom out!

anyways any thoughts on the light issue? or maybe the straight up leaves on Morpheus?
if you notice all the buds I seem to be getting are big-ass greenhouse batches.. perhaps the same every time

Probably the same hook up every time. South East is so tempting bro, but so dangerous I got to keep it legal. I'm afraid to even think about the subject outside a private message. But I think if all your plants produce you might get a half o off each. That would at least be worth the electricity. The straight up leaves just means it's over transpiring, what are the temps/humidity? You can probably kick up the ppms to 600-650. It could also be because it's just working harder than ever before because it finally has food and a lot to make up for.

What light issue are you having?

Let us speak no more of it then, and certainly not of our locations. A half oz of each would be very nice... .. The only light issue I am having is the photoperiod/dark thing.. I have light from the cloning booth hitting the ceiling and reflecting a little bit into the flower room.. the plants haven't showed any signs of stress or hermie or anything yet but idk if I should have it COMPLETELY dark or not.. the only problem is I would have to take down all my present shit to re-apply the panda to the top foot around the 3x3.. if it aint hurting them then I wouldnt want to do it..

Fucking a dude. Didn't mean to give away your location. I edited my shit. Sorry brahbrah. Completey dark is the goal. I got some firring and a nail gun and just secured a frame to the walls/ceiling/floor of my old grow room with just two little finishing nails in each board, then you can staple the shit out of your panda film to that, with only two little holes in each wall to show for it. Finishing nails are skinny little 2" nails.

Like how much light are we talking, because even half a foot candle can do it.

thanks for the ed mane, it never hurts to be too safe ya know. as far as how much lightz..idk man.. I would say it is like a full moon equivalent if it were night-time.. maybe that bright, but not as much as a candle I would think..

MAYBE if you were in a completely dark room or closet, it would be like having a few christmas lights at the top/ceiling.. so actually shit idk it might be = to a candle.. better

It's hard to say without seeing it, But I would work on fixing it. Just dangle another piece of panda film in front of it. Or duct tape the gap, whatev's. Hopefully you don't have an asbestos ceiling! Oh man, I remember back before I knew what that shit was me and my friends would stick out beer bottle caps in it in our old apartment. We would rearrange them and stuff into patterns with our mouths gawked open. Lol one of these days I'm going to be one of the cancer patients I help.

i definitely do not have asbestos in my walls, thank god. i am hoping to avoid cancer, but have done a multitude of other things that can and will most likely come back to bite me in the ass. there has been some research that supports marijuana as a cancer retardant so hey, maybe there is hope

That only works if you stuff it up your butt.

well then call me captain clean, because my anus is practically brimming with weed

anus aside, I just got back into town from a two day banquet deal, and left my roomie to take care of them while I was gone - all that was needed was one watering for both the clones and the seedlings.. the BP unit looks good! I am going to put some more pics up, but it seems like the BP unit is really trucking right along now, the roots are coming in thick again out the sides, looking like serious armpit hair or something. anwyways I gotta go to class but will post up some pics in a few horas.

okey dokey; so here I have some pictures of the individdy seedlings, still got some yellowing on some of them, not quite sure what thats from.. but other than that they ok I guess. They do not seem to be stretching at all at the moment - maybe they are deciding to grow out their roots before climbing.

The clones look aight.. they have definitely grown some since I put them in there, kind of sad I can't check on their roots like with the Bubbleponics unit, but I am keeping the faith.

Exception: One clone has leaves curling straight up.
#2 One has some darker shit creeping up on one of the leaves, not sure what it is, but the plant is still growing, and is one of the strongest otherwise.
#3 - one just looks like shit, but hasn't died yet -
(close ups on these fuckers)

BP UNIT : Looking fuckin good. All three have shown growth in both the leaf and root sectors.... Gunther has a bunch of bud sites, Emma Watson and Morpheus have like one main cola.. nada other than that.

LOL, well as long as you are doing it right. hahaha.

I don't know why your youngyins are so unhappy. What are they getting water wise?

The 3 part GH is great, but I don't know if it's going to work for you, you seem to have a lot of nutrient problems. Are you following the grow calendar from the dro shop or from the internet? Or are you following bottle instructions. You should be following the grow calendar.

What nutes do you use in your hydro bro? I'd like to start my own so could you list ALL of the nutrients you put into your reservoir and about how often you put them. Thanx.

I have this feed chart that I am using... more of a guideline really - and I think I mixed the nutes for the clones as the Lucas Formula - like 3ml micro and 6 bloom in a 1gal jug, i keep it out of the light and go through one every two days. Otherwise I have been using the three part series as this chart recommends..

whoops shit, it is a pdf so it wont load on here but here are the instructions;

Drain to Waste Program;
seedlings - 1.5ml GRO / 1.5ml MICRO / 1.5ml BLOOM
mild growth - 5ml GRO / 2.5ml MICRO / 2.5ml BLOOM
growth - 7.5ml GRO / 5ml MICRO / 2.5ml BLOOM
aggressive growth - 10ml GRO / 5ml MICRO / 2.5ml BLOOM
TRANSITION: 5ML/5ML/5ML
BLOOM - 2.5/ 5 / 7.5
aggressive bloom - 0 / 5 / 10 ( *mL's* )
ripen - 2.5 micro / 7.5 bloom **

Using the recirculating program for the BP unit but pretty similar

SHIZZZ! I think I have a boy... lol Emma Watson is turning into a dude.. noooooooooooooooo

Emma Watson is a total dude! Suuuucks. It's going to be a small harvest this round.

I think the starting point is your problem with the feed schedule. proper water/temps/EC is important for the youngyins. I know you aren't using the lucas formula but that was one of the problems. Are you feeding your seedlings right now? maybe that is why they aren't doing so well, you shouldn't feed seedlings, I made that mistake the other day because I thought some 3 week olds were ready, but apparently not. Now they are all yellowing, bummer, I'll turn them around real quick.

You da man Joz! Yea I am no longer using the Lucas Formula, I use the three part as the chart (i typed out^) suggests, but only about 1/2 strength until reaching the proper ppm's *BP UNIT* (added some water yesterday, then more nutes -which pH'd it down too low, so haven't added more juice yet, waiting for the pH to come up around 6 at least before more juice, but ppms are around 520)

For the seedlings I just do pH'd store-bought filtered. For the clones I am now using 1mL GRO - 1mL MICRO - 1mL BLOOM and 1mL SuperThrive per gal - this comes out to like 150 ppm i think (I only use one gal, or less every feeding, which I do once every two days pretty much. I am trying to let them dry out as much as possible since the rock wool keeps pretty moist, and I want those roots to strizzetch. This could be hurting them though, since the perlite I am using for the mini-hempies dries out fast?

I cant tell you how sad it was cutting down Emma Watson.. the only one with a girl name left lol. FUUUUUUAAaAAAACK- So pretty looking too...

I'm glad you helped me catch the terd before he skeeted on my ladies.. even though he looked like a badass... i dont think he skeeted on my ladies at least... sluts

Are the clones rooted? You can start a 200-250ppm feed, probably. I think Super Thrive is like a once a week or once a month sort of deal. I think. Make sure you aren't watering anything too much or too little, if they still aren't well rooted keep them wet, if they are rooted let them soak up everything but not dry out pass the surface.

Yeah, cutting down males is a bummer. It could be worse, my friend planted 6 beans, raised them for 2 months, and found out they were ALL male. He raised them with 400w mh so he dealt with a warmer apartment and the electricity bill for 2 months before finding out it was all for not. I think I might just give him a real good female to make unlimited seeds for me, but I don't really like the seeds I gave him in the first place, lol. Raising 6 plants isn't easy when you work 12 hours a day, 6 days a week.
