Eso's tester comp!

[Texagonian]

It grew out completely normally on the first set of real leaves. The first leaves it threw were single bladed. This has happened with other seeds in the past and just grew out ok.
@Texagonian It will be interesting to see the stretch difference. You are running the 3100 and I am running the 4200. The light hue is definitely different. And your plants are looking PERFECT !

Your OJ are outgrowing and my Dynoberry are going to own the tray soon Subject to change any night lol.

Thanks for the compliment on the plants. I’m giving them their best life. I’m not into unnecessary stress unless I’ve been asked to give them hell. You’re plants are looking great as well. It’s kinda neat how ours are doing the opposite as far as growth. The oj for me is pulling away from the rest and I see your dinoberry is going hard for you. Looking forward to seeing how everyone’s grow turns out

Looking Aces buddy! Those stem rubs sound great. Im guessing the orangeberry and welchies will blow up now, hopefully the dynoberries can keep up! Cheers man

Thank you sir! Having a good time with the grow. All are easy going and I’m gonna take a cut or two from each and then do a defol to open them up. Thanks again for letting me test them

Thank you for running them! Fingers crossed they come out like I hope they will

ok so I had 2 black grapes dumdum that I started, 1 stalled out and I tossed it, the other stalled out in the flower tent. Well I pulled that one out of the 4" cube it was in and set it in the veg tent to recover. All the roots had died basically and she had to start over, but today she has nice healthy roots popping out the bottom so I'll put her back in the 4" cubes let her veg a few more days and back in the tent she'll go, along with the 2 extra BGDs I just popped and that are working their way up out of the wool now.

I also had an oj#3 version of orangeberry smoothie and a dyno b bite that stalled too and the oj#3 also has new roots popping out so I'll put it in a 4" cube and once the dyno bb comes around I'll through her back into flower as well.

So hopefully with these three getting healthy again and then the 4 more seeds I just popped, 2 black grape and 2 dynos, I'll have 12-13 seedlings that flower out.

Fuck it though, I guess me fucking up the several I have by over watering or not flushing the rock wool good enough, leaving some pathogen fucking the girls up for me, is good for stress testing, lol. The girls that recover will be the true test, knock on wood...

Do you use any beneficial microbes in your rockwool?

Do you use any beneficial microbes in your rockwool?

Naw, but I should have.

I usually flush the rock wool out with hot water from the tap for a minute or so and then rinse it out with tepid water after that but this time I didn't and it bit me in the ass.

Just been busy at work and the garden hasn't been getting as much attention as she could use but shit happens, lol. .

Friday Update. I will try to stick to Friday but I am nuts for pics so no promises.

Steady as she goes. TDS 600 PH 5.6 and rising (just adjusted yesterday to 5.5 to let it rise). Calmag, Megacrop and a pinch of BE.

The Orangeberry Smoothie is starting to catch up. The little baby is a Welchie I added to 12 12 yesterday.

The Dinoberry Bites has monster big leaves. Very sturdy and robust. Tomorrow i will clean up some of the undergrowth and then let it go until harvest (except to clean out those goofy little buds that keep trying to grow back).

Looking beauty.

Well its a good thing eso let me into the party.
Not eso's but this is just an example of the charmed life his seeds will enjoy by my hands. LOL.


Got the cloner runnin inside to help dial back in the enviro after being down, and will be gettin the testers wet in a few days. Light for starting will be 60W of mixed temp (2700, 4000, and 5000 i think) cxb3070.

Looking spectacular @gwheels ! I have to do some defoliation as well. I’m stoked to see how these turn out for everyone. You taking cuttings?

 

[thenotsoesoteric]

The 2 extra blk grp dd and dynobb are up and out of the wool.

 

[Cfeezzie]

Still vegging these two both 14 inches. Both put in 3 gallon pots of supersoil.

Those are looking great man! I’ll be doing some defoliation and taking cuttings tonight when lights come on and I’m planning on doing a soil run to check the difference between hydro and soil. Also gonna see how they clone. Looking forward to seeing how yours turn out

Thanks. Yeah I'm going to take some clones. Do you us a cloning machine or just rapid rooters. I use rapid rooters. My brother has a cloner was thinking of using.

 

[Cob_nUt]

Only had room to drop two, they’re both up and doing well. I’ll start posting when there’s something to see. Everyone’s doing good so far, I’m kinda wishing that I had my flood and drain going now!

Procrastinator you built yours before I did! Heh,I used your totes since I couldn't find the ODJOBS.

 

[Cob_nUt]

Right now the stand outs for me are both welchies (lvtk), all valley grape (grape bubba) and a dynoberry (bbb dog).

Still early so we'll see it that holds.

Waiiiiiiit a minute! Were the valley grape part of the tester packs(kinda lazy right now,Indon't want to run to the fridge or click back to earlier pages)?
My 2 DynoBerryBites are up,nothing much to see at the moment.

Kev, how far away was your light from the seedlings?
How many watts(wall) is it?

 

[Texagonian]

I’ve got both but am just going to peat pellet it and put it in a dome. Not in a major rush for them to root but am curious if the are fast or slow to root. I guess I could do a couple each way and see what’s up.

Sorry buddy, the all valley never went out to anyone.

The grape bubba, the purple pheno of black dog (aka black grapes dumdum), and the oj#3 crosses were all on plants that flowered out later than the tester bean's plants and were not read to go out with test packs. I only got like 70 beans of that cross so I'm gonna put 2 seeds of it in the first like 200 packs of beans as an "insert" kind of deal like baseball cards. I'll keep about 30 beans for myself and then try for like 20 packs of 2 for the winning "inserts" so it'll be like a 10% chance of scoring the all valley grape.

The sad thing is that AVG in flower was one of the ones that got sad in flower, she will limp through flower now and I should have start more beans but fuck it for now. I think those this cross will kick out some jewels in the grape terps department, but have to wait to see.

I've been spraying the lvtk for a couple days now with cs and plan on hitting the g. bubba with that and that cross has me excited. Both plants are frost queens. I may have to pull the sad plants out of flower and let them get healthy again and let the 4 new seedlings catch up to them so I can fit in the lvtk reversal plant.

The c99s are putting out nice smells but they sure aren't "pretty" plants, lol. They'll need some lvtk pollen as well, lol. So far I'm getting a pineapple-ish type sweetness off the tall #1 plant, a grapefruit sour type smell off the shortest plant and the middle one right now honestly smells a little grapey with a pineapple type smell. Right now based on smell I think the grapefruit one is outta of there, that's a no go for me.

Soil is such a slow ass medium, lol. I don't think these girls will yield shit compare to coco, but hopefully the flavor will be improved maybe?
