Skunky VA Mano EH Mano GthaEnigma VS OldG

[DopeDaniel]

I foliar feed occasionally. I know it helps plant growth, but i am not sold on silica being 100% safe for combustion and inhalation. I am willing to accept the lower yeild without it.

It's not a foilar technically but regalia will kick it up a notch. I use yucca surfactant. I wouldn't worry about silica on combustion. Whats in the products amorphous not crystalline (DE has a small % depending on processing). I more worry about horticultureal oils.

The HoneySundae I have does not like being sprayed at all (at least in flower) not even water.

Something I noticed. I have to foliar spray because of a thrippy situation...I think it leads to tremendously better growth in veg.

I am expanding my foliar applications this year, I have used WCaP at transition and a product called super K fulvate but not so much in veg, really a point at which I am not taking advantage of the plants capability. In the past it was because my environmental controlls were lacking. Looking to add epsom and ???...

Im just hoping its the thrips and not the foliar that are causing your explosive growth.

I have to foliar spray because of a thrippy situation...I think it leads to tremendously better growth in veg.

I added a fulvic product to the regimen last year, and after reading it greatly increases a plant's ability to absorb nutrients foliarly(I don't think that's a word), I began misting my cuts a couple times per day. I just pour a bit of my standard nute solution that I use in the hempy buckets, with included fulvic acid, into the little spray bottle. I believe it's taken a couple days off of my rooting time and it is very rare to lose a cut.

They would basically be the same height if the sprouts wouldnt have gotten so sideways at germination. Taps up does seem to help with shedding the hulls but I dont think it will become a regular practice of mine.

Haircuts today, one with boy parts seen, another suspect female.

I put them all in 5s. I was able to cull out some room. We are one week away from should be no frost!

5 gallon hard pots (x2) 5 gallon standard fabric pot 5 gallon fancy fabric pot with the liner. I think three of them are girls. I have 1 left that i thought was male...then i almost killed it forgetting to water it..plucked all the dead off of it and let it remain living in bloom. Super resiliant and doing pretty good today.


I will start hardening them up this week and get some veg room back.

I filled a 15 gallon fabric pot and the dog jumped on top and dug the dirt out...so i have to find a good fenced area...

Or build something....Light and Dog DEP

 

[OldG]

The label lacker realized that the 5 gallon tan pot was actually a schill...

I was counting my skunky VA and got to 8 with 6 seeds. That beast is Banana OG X Schwaggy Afhgan Skunk !

I up potted an actual Skunky VA in the same pot to avoid confusion...and i will know by the aroma.

There is no prize...only excellence. I have pretty much fucked up every contest i ever grew in...innocently and stuff but like that. Nolabelmeister...when you are high it seems you can figure it out but the reality is...i can figure it out.

But more labels. It is like Cowbell...rock needs more cowbell.

What is really amazing is i up potted a skunky va (labelled) from a 9 litre (2.3) to a 5 gallon fabric pot yesterday at 6 pm (lights on)...its bigger this morning in the 5 gallon.

Now that i grow in soil I see we have some pretty sweet shit going on up in here...Canada eh

Stepwell. i like getting a bale or 2 of this. Each one blows out to 34 gallons of soil !!!

And that is what i up potted in...this is my 4th bale. My 2nd gen and 3rd gen soil is a mix of this and KIS about 50 50 and i have to say...the 2nd and 3rd gen when treated right (azomite, gaia green veg 4 4 4, kelp, neem and karanja cakes and steep for 2 weeks at least...with a blob of hypostasis mites...


I love the shit.

I must bow out of the light dep. competition. I will not be able to comply with the May 24 deprivation start date. Although I love you guys, I'm married ti my wife and we are going on vacation. These will get put in flower soon after they sex.

 

[GthaEnigma]

Update time. Here are the babies. Nobody has lifted their skirt yet. front row second from the right is current fav. We will see what pans out.

 

[OldG]

@GthaEnigma They are taking off now!...

I have 3 in the garage now getting used to the cooler temps under a QB120...in a few days they will go outside in the garden (1 is there now).

All 3 are in 5 gallon containers.

Currently at 14 hours 20 minutes of daylight outside.

You can flip them when you get back, its only a "Competition" in name. More just an excuse to play show me yours and I'll show you mine lol. A Vacation with the wifey sounds way better! Have fun.

 

[OldG]

3 Skunky VA are outside. They handled last night and i will leave them out there.

5 gallon planters (1 felt pot, 1 lined woven pot and 1 in a 5 gallon hard plastic round pot.

I can flip on the 24th just won't be outside. I don't want to take the pest risk of putting them out and bringing them back in while we are gone. I can put them out when we get back.

I'll be taking cuts and transplanting to something resembeling a 2 gallon pot in the next few days. Then I'll pick one and do a final transplant to a 5 gallon on dof. No alternating nodes yet, did an epsom/silica/yucca foliar yesterday (1/2T/4ml/2.5ml on 1/2 gal) hit the peppers and strawberries with it too. Strawbereies don't generally tolerate foliar well ime but seemed to do ok with this.

That will be fine.
This is an adventure in what is possible with light dep. The ripper fixer.
Or the hermy maker...we will see

 

[OldG]

Now I remember...the Sun is a little better than my grow lights, even in early May.

They are LOVING it. The fence might have to get higher the dog is a massive pita with gardening..she wants to dig it ALL up.

 

[OldG]

Things are warming up !

The Three Amigos.

 

[DopeDaniel]

I had to flip because I was running out of room and these were supposed to be in the cold frame by now. Four boys on the right two girls on the left.

No room to get a pic had to stand on the chair.

 

[GthaEnigma]

So I have been slacking a bit, colicky baby is eating up time. Didn't get to train like I wanted but that is hpw it goes some times, I picked one that smells berrry/hashy. She got a hard topping at the 6th node and trimmed off the bottom 2 branches. Also uppotted to final 5 gal bag. I will get some pics up later today.

 

[GthaEnigma]

Flip day!!!! Here is my finalist.
.
She smells lovely. Let the fun commence. I will be running 12/12 from 8:15 am to pm. I figure it is the best schedule to maximize the natural light intensity and fit my time constraints.

 

[OldG]

The game is afoot !

This is my contender....I have 2 more that will be in the experiment as well.

7:30 PM they go in the shed...7:30 AM they go wherever the sun is.

The spot i had her???? captures the morning sun the best of anywhere.
3 skunky va's in 5 gallons.

 

[GthaEnigma]

What a beast!!! Damn, she is thick in ALL the right places. Great start man, she is gonna be fun to watch!

 

[OldG]

I am VERY happy with my outdoors. The reason I think is I realized my INDOOR grow script shall carry me through forever. Outdoors is for fun and for autos.

And this concept...forcing a light time outside...well that never occured to me...but it is fraught with danger...I just realized my fucking plants are in the SHED !!!

Light time will have a hiccup or two but its time for SIRI to fix it....Tom Cruise and i are buds and he comes over for some fine hash when he is not filming...



I did end up putting a starfighter outside....and one of those skunky VAS is going in a 25....

High again.....well every day. This emergency broadcast is brought to you buy...Frims Whitebread Auto with some fine dust hash i made on Saturday....May 25th...what a glorious day.

Lets GROW THIS !
