Mentalpatient's White Berry Grow

[ShecallshimThor]

most ppl find that the breeders harvest time gives little to no amber heads
if you want that 50/50 with your trics you might have to wait

 

[MeNtAlPaTiEnT]

Cool, no problem. An extra week or two should be worth the wait .

Quick update here. No problems or issues. Although I seem to be getting a bit of mold or fungus on the top of my soil. I think this is because of the bone meal I've added a week or so ago. I guess it didn't absorb into the soil and stayed at the surface of the soil.

Switched my light set-up to focus on the one side of the plant to grow some nice sticky, dense colas. The back side of the plant wasn't growing very much and I thought it was rather a waste of energy trying to grow the buds on that side out.

She's at roughly 28 days flower now I believe. Not even half way done and she's looking fabulous! I want to let her go all the way because I'd really like some dense nugs and no fluffy nuglets like last year.

looking good mental,
how are the out door plants getting on?
id cover up any mould with soil to stop the spores being blown arounf the room,might be harmless, but not worth the risk!

 

[MeNtAlPaTiEnT]

Good idea swift, what I was doing was using a little pick to take it out. Think it would be safe to just cover it up?

The outdoor plants are doing alright, I've got a bunch of clones at a few places. None of them seem to be growing all too fast because they all need bigger pots and all my grow spots are far away... so I suppose I need to get on that. Hauling buckets of soil through the woods is always fun! lol.

 

[swiftgt]

well if its nasty mould, if you where picking it out, you would be spreadding thousands of spores, i would cover it up, chances are its not a nasty one, as its growing on the bone meal and not the plants!
no i cant say im a fan of hauling big buckets of soil/water to my grow room , let alone out in the woods!
how often do you visit your outdoor grow?

 

[MeNtAlPaTiEnT]

Oh I'd say I visit them once a week or so.
I've got one spot close and I check up on that one usually every 2 days or so, they are doing the best and that's where my other big White Berry is. The other day I at least brought in a bucket of soil to my far far grow location and transplanted a bunch of seedlings/clones that were still in little tiny styrofoam cups. It looked like if they were in those cups any longer, they would have devloped root rot by the looks of it.

But I think one of these days, I'm going to get up before the sun rises and bring my vehicle full of soil near to my far location and start bringing in buckets all day. Thing is, I don't want to do all that work just to get ripped... I'll probably be making a lot of tracks going in and out all day. But definately worth a shot in my opinion. Good excercise too!

 

[swiftgt]

once a week is fairly good, do you get much rain out your way?
sounds like a handy way to get large ammounts of soil to your location,
might be doing that myself!

 

[Getmelifted]

Let me tell you if you go another 30 days on that plant its gonna produce quite a bit

Nice job

Nice job Mental... Looking quite lovely...30 more days and they will be looking super scrumptious...

We usually get a rain every week or so, maybe once every two weeks. Temperatures don't get too high either, sometimes the temps go up to 32 degrees C for a couple of days then it tends to cool down and stay near 26 or 28 during the day.
Yeah, using a vehicle to transport soil saves a lot of manual labor... If you've watched BrownDirtWarrior's videos, he drives the soil to the location and hauls the soil in from there. So that's basically my plan but I will only have to drive like maybe 10 minutes, lol.

I know huh! She's looking like she's already growing some nice full-sized colas and she's almost just at half way now. I'm going to try not to test-sample any nugs so I know for sure how much she yields under these lights. Can't believe she's only like 3 or 4 feet tall, not including the bucket. Grew her for three months and she barely gained any height.

I smile every time I open the door to my grow box. Smells super nice in there and looking at her resin production causes me to lick my lips, haha. Yup, one more month to wait. Shouldn't be too hard to endure since I've got a lot to do outdoors right now. Time should just fly by...

 

[swiftgt]

the weather sounds good there!
wish it was as good here!
so you dont have to water them at all then?
yea i think ill be driving to my lo-cal,late at night with the moon out,
should be fun!

 

[MeNtAlPaTiEnT]

I might have to water them if it's like super super hot and the soil just dries out in the sun, but I think I'll be covering the soil with leaves and stuff to hopefully prevent the soil from getting too dry easily.

With the moon out! hah! Middle-of-the-night operation huh? I've thought of that, but I've got to go through swamp land and deep woods... scary!

 

[swiftgt]

yea using leaves and mulsh are great for stopping the soil drying out!
ill be doing that when im planting,
yea its going to be a top secret night planting mission for me, ill be doing some driving with the lights off as well, should be loads of fun!
but yea i wouldnt fancy walking through swamp at night that sounds real scary !
we dont have scary things over here, but a badger could fall on you from a tree, or a squirrel could give you a nasty nip, but thats about it,

Beeeeautiful girl you got going! Good job. Have fun in the woods. It is tough not leaving a path when you are making lots of trips. Best to try a different route if it gets to looking too obvious, even if it's more trouble for you.

 

[MeNtAlPaTiEnT]

Wow swift, you have those angry looking badgers near your place? Crazy crazy.

Thanks for stopping by Benny, and thanks for the advice. If I take too many different routes, I'll probably get lost! Haha. Maybe I could leave some sort of marking on trees to tell me I'm going the right way or something.

May 20

A few of my clones have found a new home today. I waved them farewell and remembered all the good times we've had. They are in good hands now. I believe they are going to be outdoors plants.

Snapped a few shots today. Thought I'd upload 'em. Anyhoo, happy growing!

awesome pics

I might've missed it but what are you feeding them other than water?

I apply some bone meal every once in a while and some miracle bloom solution. I add the MG every 2-3 days, about 1 teapsoon per 500 ml. Might be too weak, but luckily I havn't seen any burns yet.

 

[swiftgt]

looking good mental,
yep its say seeing you little babys off alright,
good thing you found a good home for them!
