panama x big sur holyweed

[walkerluke]

Just went through the whole journal, and everything looks awesome!! I'm growing for the first time, and am learning so much...although after looking at what you've done I definitely know I'm an amateur. Anyway, hope mine turn out half as good as yours. Thanks for the posts.

 

[oldsmoker]

thanks walkerluke, hope you found something to inspire you to keep growing

well we are now 12 weeks in and counting, Ive reduced feeding for the
Indica phenos sake so some yellow leafs are showing

they are frosting up nicely and the colas are forming ok.

next run Im going to use the bucket system so I can rotate the plants
around a vertical lamp instead of using a hood

this will give me more head room

 

[oldsmoker]

Well I hate to admit this but this grow is fast becoming a pain now
At the moment I’m looking at mouth watering buds at the back of the screen
Which I can’t get to and under nourished buds at the front .
So I’ve decided to terminate them this weekend and start again with 4 clones
From the same mum, I should have done this a while back but just kept plodding
On regardless.
So Ill post some pic’s of the slaughter when I’m done, there will be some worthwhile smoke
And the rest will go into the bubblebags for some welcome hash.
There has to be changes before the next run, room will have more height and I started
Building a new hydro system for them today.
Lessons learned :
don’t let them get too big before flowering
don’t expect there to be males
don’t use a scrog net with different phenos
and different phenos in the same bubbler is a no no
positive :
I now know what to expect
I get to build a new room and hydro system
Ill have some nice smoke to bide my time with

Hope you all aren’t too disappointed but this needs to be done

just to wind up this thread
here are a couple of pic's of some of the bud I rescued

 

[oldsmoker]

Round 2
ok so this time Im prepared, they really caught me out the stretch
was astonishing and in the end I had to salvage what I could
and start again

I built a new hydro system and selected 4 clones, 2 from plant no2
and 2 from plant no3
they are under a 400w mh

 

[oldsmoker]

the Panama mum is really shining through on plant no3
which is developing some gorgeous pink pistils :hubba:

feeding cycle is 15min in every hour
ec 1.4 ph 5.5 - 6.0

 

[oldsmoker]

day 24 and they continue the display, Ive super cropped them
constantly :watchplant:

one more week under mh before I change to hps

 

[Icex420]

That looks incredable.

What was the pinkish strain? Or where did you get the strain?

 

[oldsmoker]

HI Icex420, they are Panama x big sur holy weed
it was the panama mum that had the pink trait

 

[oldsmoker]

Tric count has risen day 25 of 80 so theres a long way to go yet :hubba:

 

[oldsmoker]

Day 28 of 80
they seem to like pk 13-14
Ive notched Ec up to 1.5

 

[poop-dog]

Looks great.. Your 125w cfl bulb. Do you like it? I looked online and it said it needed a mogul socket. Is that standard or special? It does not require a ballast correct?

 

[oldsmoker]

thanks ****-dog
yes its great for mums, clones, seedlings
its the same size as a standard hps/mh socket and no ballast is needed

 

[RiskyPack]

Yeah I have the same.. And I agree with oldsmoker, and actually I used it to veg the last time also.. Buy the lamp you will not regret it.

 

[oldsmoker]

yes RiskyPack Ive also used them for veg in the past
they produce nice tight plants.
few more pic's

 

[Mutt]

Wow can't beleive i missed this one. Sounds like a great cross. Yeah those Sat doms you don't want to veg long indoors. Some of those Haze varieties I flowed at 6". Heard of some like NL5xHaze go from 6" in veg stretch to 5' in flower

 

[oldsmoker]

thank's Mutt
yes they certainly blind sided me last time
all seems to be running smoothly so far :watchplant:
although I still have that nagging feeling at the back of my mind
that they are just lulling me into a false sence of security :laugh:

 

[oldsmoker]

thats the end of a weeks pk 13-14
so now they are on normal nutes Ec1.6
Ive replaced the airstones in the res with 2 clean ones
and re-calibrated the ph controller

the pink pheno seem more advanced than the green and her
buds are beefing up nicely although Im sure the green will still
produce :hubba:

 

[oldsmoker]

just a quick view of the screen
EC1.6 ph 5.5 - 6.0 Rh >50% temp 24c

 

[oldsmoker]

Ive notched the EC up to 1.8
