Desert Plants Genetics - 2021 Comparison Grow #1

[Zaphod420]

Oi, everytime I watch a new Vader vid I feel a very strong PANG to try building a flood and drain tray lol.

Same, I was just looking at the material sheet yesterday.

I will post pictures later, but the Jawa and Void are doing great. Just going through their initial growth phase.

 

[Zaphod420]

Jawa has been topped and cruising right along.

and just for a quick comparison here is a pic of her with Heisenbeans AD X AC A & B and they are already a bit bigger and have been in the veg tent the least amount of time.

I am keeping mine in the hood until the parts get here for my new RDWC. No local places had two-inch bulkheads in stock. I should have some pics up by next weekend.

Side note, Lowes has 5 gal square (flat sided) buckets with a lid for like $7 right now. Search for "Commander Tote"

 

[DesertPlants]

Ok, so things didn't go to plan (as usual). The 2 inch bulkheads I had purchased from Lowes have cracks in them. After trying to reseal them, they still leaked and I ended up just going with Coco and perlite in a 80/20 mix. It's about 80/20 on the top and about 70/30 at the bottom.

Both plants have been transplanted to five gallon buckets. I let them get a little too far along inside the propegation tray because I was wanting to get the RDWC running, so they are a bit yellow, but are recovering quickly.

The plant in the middle is an Alien vs Triangle Auto I am trying out from Mephisto.

I have been working my Jawa Pie up low and slow under my spider farmer SF1000 and she doesn't mind. Once Colombian Jack finishes up in a week or 2 in the low garden she will get her spot under some more light. Still really hyped to see what he/she turns into but I am hoping a nice big jar of stinky nugz

 

[DesertPlants]

I got my RDWC up and running today. I am going to leave it running for a week or so empty to make sure it's not going to start leaking. I won't be replanting these plants in it though. They can finish through coco.

 

[DesertPlants]

The plants are doing well in their 5 Gal homes. Both were FIMed yesterday.

Voidwalker

Jawa Pie

 

[DesertPlants]

Side note.. if you plant off center, you will have room to LST without having to go off to one side too far.

 

[Zaphod420]

I took 2 cuts off my Jawa yesterday and it is going to the low garden tomorrow to flower. If it turns out to be a male I think I am going to throw one of my AD X AC M cuts in there and let them make beautiful HiesenVader little people babies.

 

[DesertPlants]

I chopped down the Alien vs Triangle today and she is drying.

As for the Voidwalker and Jawa Pie... They are doing well. My picture isn't the best, but they are doing well. I will get some better pictures taken soon with side views and such. The Jawa Pie is definitely taller, but the Voidwalker is much wider. I trimmed the largest fan leaves from the Voidwalker because they are too low and needed to be pruned for the future step of adding more coco. You can see part of the monster leaves in the tray to the right.

 

[Zaphod420]

Your girls are looking great DesertPlants. My Jawa just went to flower and I will post a pic once I know if it is a boy or a girl.

 

[DesertPlants]

Mine look kind of goofy from the FIM still... The structure should get much better over the next week.

 

[DesertPlants]

both plants have been topped again. I trimmed the lowest set of branches from both plants to keep them consistent and keep the branches off the top of the containers.

So far, the Voidwalker is a much bushier plant. No complaints about either. Jawa Pie is still on the left and Voidwalker on the right.

 

[DesertPlants]

I need to get some new LST wires. These are not staying put.

 

[Zaphod420]

My Jawa Pie is coming along nicely on Day 28 of flower. She is sharing a tent with a Colombian Jack(also on D28F) and a AD X AC "B" cut clone that was just flipped to flower 5 days ago.

Oi, everytime I watch a new Vader vid I feel a very strong PANG to try building a flood and drain tray lol.

I would like to try his Fader Actual, maybe someday. Beautiful work @DesertPlants

[Zaphod420]

My Jawa is starting to show some fade and swell with a light sprinkles of frost breaking out on D38 of flower. Side not - AD X AC "B" cut. has already caught up to Colombian Jack Height wise and is in full blown stretch on D13F. She is super vigorous for being a clone and I am glad I flipped her when I did.
