Holy shit that seems like a lot.

Holy shit that seems like a lot.

It definitely was. I'm sure the roots are saying "hey wtf man?!" But i dont know what caused the lockout. my best guess is built up salts or over recycling my coco. In any case, I wanted to break whatever chemical bonds were causing the lockout and restore balance to the coco as far as ph goes. It was excessive but I needed to be sure that these girls were completely flushed. It shouldn't cause too much stress tho as coco is technically hydroponics, believe it or not. It handles water extremely well, even at excessive volumes. the rest leaks out fairly quickly and it holds what it can and nothing more. Not only that but now I'm quite sure they're flushed clean and I only hope a fresh start turns things around for her. This is like a make or break moment as far as bud development is concerned. she can make it with a decent harvest but only if this flush works. If not, she'll only get worse. This is a first for me tho

I'm Interested in seeing how they react to this flush tho for sure.. They seem fine but I need a week of growth atleast to notice any real difference

Did you give them a final flush with some feed?

I don’t know much about coco, but seems like it’d be a good idea?

Absolutely! I'm sure I left next to nothing for them feed on .waiting for lights on tho. I gave em a small amount of time for some of that water to evaporate. They were so saturated yesterday. It's been extremely dry in my area for the past week and still is and I have the carbon filter going which does remove some moisture from the tent. But yea, lights on at 11 and I'm going to do a little feeding. Maybe some recharge wouldn't hurt

Damn near outta zkittlez. Glad I have friends in the black market. Got a oz of platinum kush, a half oz of grape sour and he threw in a free sac of Bruce banner! We got to talking growing and I can see him catching the urge to grow again. He stopped growing long ago but I did let him know hes got access to my clones if he gets a garden going again . If I could get all my close friends to grow, I would.

I smoke A LOT, hoping I can stretch this and my wax until harvest. Cost me $325. I would've only gotten an ounce at my dispensary for the same price and it's an hour away so screw em

Big transplant day. Took a while but I got everything in the veg tent into their final
Pots. Some 1 gallon, some 3. I've never transplanted this many at once but It filled the 3x3 to the max. The plan from here is to move half of everything from the veg tent into the flower tent next weekend and take clones. And half the following week. This will give me a kind of staggered harvest during the next few months.

To prepare for the veg tent clearing, im soaking 8 new fem seeds for the next round.
Two potent strains. The classic Grandaddy Purple and bubble kush

 

[Grow Harder]

Also the Zkittlez seems to be leaning to one side after the flush and branches aren't standing properly so I ordered 25 4foot bamboo stakes and some zip ties to help her out but otherwise she looks ok. We might make it. If I can get another 5 weeks out of her, she'll be decent considering the hiccups View attachment 81443View attachment 81444View attachment 81445View attachment 81446

And sis below a few weeks behind

Genetics secured (?) . Let's hope we get 100% success again. 2 gorilla glue from @Macncheesehaze , 3 different phenos of brothers Grimm c99 from the great grower @Opie1 , 2 different phenos of black widow from nirvanashop and a cut of og kush also from nirvanashop

 

[Grow Harder]

Took all my seeds out of the water n into paper towels n ziplock and put on a source of heat. Looks like all the bubblegum kush has taproots already and will be planted tomorrow evening.
Only saw one on the gdp so far

That top pic looks like a really nice pheno. Did you take a clone from it?
Sorry I’ve not gotten back with ya sooner, been really busy here lately.
Do you remember if I sent you some C99 twice or just once? Reason I ask is that I got some from a different source as Brothers Grimm first and then got some direct from BG, the Brothers Grimm is definitely a lot better and I’m hoping that’s what you have. I think the other version was Reefermans, which is crossed with something else.

Yup, I've got 7 clones of that exact cut of Zkittlez in the veg tent right now. The pic below that is the same cut as well. These 7 cuts came from the 2 in flower and those 2 came from the original one which was harvested sometime in early November. As far as the seeds I think u sent them once and idk if this will help make the difference but u sent them in a small glass vial with a plastic stopper and they were all bone white. Got 3 going now but hopefully they're the better of the 2 but if not they're still going to harvest lol

@Opie1 here's a few pics of momma Zkittlez from novembers harvest


momma was grown under a less impressive light, and this time I got a lockout lol. Hopefully we can see the seven clones in their full glory and skip the hiccups.

Hey @Opie1 I found this old post


I THINK these are the c99s but I honestly cant be sure. I dont think u sent these the first round of seeds tho because I remember we had some problems with seeds being squished in the mail. And u sent these in a small glass vial, well protected. Plus I was defioliating one and it smells like dank already . Usually they dont have nearly any sort of smell yet. Only this. Oh and the og kush in veg smells slightly of lemon zest. Anyway I want to say these are the c99s but admittedly, I wish I knew for sure

 

[Grow Harder]

The vial broke a bit but hopefully this rings a bell as to which it is?

 

[Opie1]

I’m pretty sure that they’d be the Grimm version after reading that old post. I can tell you for sure after they get a few weeks old and definitely when they’re flowering.
