WintersBones Bud Basement

Got a new rig that just arrived. A little treat for myself and the better half.


It was a fucked up year but at least some good came out of it. Here's the fruits of what I learned. Hopefully onwards to better things.

Very nice...

Chop day. Cut down the DBC x SB on day 98. Also took the top off the micro auto (SSx3BOG x CDLC) which might be the frosty-ist little thing I've grown. Shame its only a few grams lol

Over in the photo space we're a couple weeks into flower and it's been determined Blue God #1 is male. Whomp. Into the compost lol This leaves me with one female each out of the three strains, so worked out just fine.

Did a little bit of rearranging today in the photo space. Raised the indica's up and did a bit more super cropping to keep the canopy level. Also reset the blumat lines and added a T junction after the first distributor going to 2 carrots each now. seems to have helped even out the pressure on that line. Getting more consistent drips at every pot now.

Did a little tidying up today and realized I don't talk much about my nutrient line up. Here's the line up.

I've been using the GH floratrio and a few supplements for about a year now. Generally follow the cocoforcannabis.com feeding schedule as a guideline but with some adjustments. Typically I keep between a 1-1.5EC in the reservoir, pH to 6, using just the GH Trio, nectar and KoolBloom. Then when I top off the res I'll give an extra feeding/soil drench using the additional supplements.
Currently have 8 plants feeding off the Bluemat distribution system, which are early to mid flower stage, drinking 2-3gal a day.

Trimming up the Deep Blue C x Sour Bubbly before it goes in the paper bag for a few days.

Over in the 3x3. Livers Bx1 is doing well and looking healthy.


But the Mango Sunrise is struggling a bit and I don't know why. It's a little small and the fan leaves are growing out oddly, twisting at the tips. It wants...something... but what I don't know.

Canna-cheese 1:1 is looking and smelling awesome. She's stinky already and I just like the structure of the plant. Really enjoying watching this one grow, I have a feeling this might become a favorite.

ManBearAlienPig plugging away. She's a slow go and I just pick off a couple of concerning looking buds that looked like they might be getting bud rot. Hopefully caught it in time. This has a been a rough go for this plant sheesh. At least a couple weeks to go yet.

Hubbabubba Haze x Cosmic Queen aka Princess Bubblegum. Had to give her a bit of a thinning out she's still so bushy, but finally starting to see the colas emerge from the canopy. Going to have some nice dense colas.

Toofless Alien. Could chop anytime but trying to stretch her a bit longer to let her put on some weight and density. Has gone almost entirely purple which is cool. But lost most of her fan leaves and the bud density isn't what I'd like to see. But she's very resinous and bulky.

And we chopped the Creme de la Chem x Sour Stomper today. She's a beautician. Lovely colours and fade. Small but dense and heavy buds. Has a very interesting gassy lemonade sort of smell. Can't wait till she's cured.

Blue Dream CBD a couple weeks into flower. She's a little stretchy, Im doing lots of supercropping with her to keep the canopy level.

Acapulco Gold, same time frame, but coming along a little quicker. Similar stretch but getting more budsites, looking very nice, lovely smell already.

And the three JOTI plants. Blue Hawaiian Sativa, Black Funk Dawg and Blue God.

Like the variety you've got going on.
I grew a 5 pack of Canna-Cheese this past fall, wild variation in phenotypes (I had a runt, blue-ish pheno, red pheno and 2 that were similiar to yours) but I really enjoy it. I did end up with some seeds, but I think that may have had to do with back n forth light cycle changes. Mine finished right on track with Mephistos timeline. 83-85 days mostly 24/0

Hey thanks buddy!
That's good to know, thanks for the input. I'm around day 65ish with this one and I doubt it'll be finishing in 20 days. but I grow in a basement and struggle to keep the temps up so I find I usually add about 10-15 days to the growers timeline no matter what strain it is lol.

I can relate man, I'm in the same boat right now. I'm using heat mats to offset the off cycle temps that drop down to 55 in my basement, and I run off cycle in the afternoon. You seem to have a dialed in perpetual setup going so, probably doesn't matter much if they take a bit longer. Nice and healthy plants

Just a few shots of what's going on under the HLG's in the 3x3. Plants are really enjoying the HLG96 Elites.
MBAP is starting to bulk up nicely now. Canna-cheese starting to frost up already. and Princess Bubblegum is stacking up bud sites.
