Hi

Well id thought id do an update on how my low level flood /sog grow is coming along.
The last pic of the table was 2 weeks ago.....
http://www.uk420.com/boards/index.php?s=&a...=47&t=6003&st=0

I'd already chosen to keep the "a" pheno...short/squat ..good yeilder...the last time...but i couldnt see the tables left empty and didnt have enough "a" pheno cuttings at the time....next time tho so theres 3 types in here...2 which are more lanky...one of which isnt as good a resin producer as the others...

first shot is a overhead shot 2 days ago...the 2nd is today...theyre off into stretch...

..

..

heres that nice short pheno..

the other table looks kinda empty now

oops same one...fool!

not any more!

Thanks JollyGoodSmoke

The're Flood and Drain tables....with 600's on rails
All the above were put into flower as soon as clones showed roots in 3' cubes...the top table has been flowering 2 weeks now

Cheers

Hydronaut

Looking good again hydronaut!!

Are you growing in rock wool slabs this time rather than the celmax in pots and stuff?

Chip (mildly envious, i gott get me one of those tables)

Hi Chip...cheers..

The low lev tables have the pots with cellmax in still...the high lev has slabs as usual...never done anything but slabs in that,tho id supose pots would work just as well.
Everytime i do things a little diff...this time in the high lev i've also used spreader mat,as opposed to leaving the roots to work their way thru the drain grill onto the table bottom.I completley remove the plastic on the bottom of the slabs,most peeps just slash them...also added a air pump and stone to the res...even tho i use oxy+...u gotta tinker aint ya ....thinkin of adding airstones to the table bottom to come on when filling:D

Cheers

Hi

Time for an update...Table 1,the 2 low levels pushed together has about 3 weeks left now...table 2,the high lev ,is about 2 weeks behind that.
Now this is really a spacing/pheno experiment before i start proper...saying that i have another 8 Black Dom's yet to sex and test.This is gonna take me well into next year to sort out.
I need to see which phenos best suit my method...sog..i originally thought my "a" pheno,very short,little branching indica based(i think these current clones with finish at 10 inches) plants were the ones.
Saying that the "c" pheno...looks as described in the sensi cat seems more suited .
First time round during sexing it didnt look to impressive...but this time round its grabbed my attention.No branching what so ever....i can really pack these in....and resin to the point where its making the fan leaves twist.All the trim from these ill keep for bubbling.
This strain really waits till the last moment to put on the bud weight.The first time round i was sure they were gonna be low yeilders...but i wasnt dissapointed.Saying that tho i hope somewhere in the next 8 theres better...we wll see.
Altogether at the moment there are 86 plants spread between the two tables.The NL5 x Silver Haze are now all up and going..when everything is sorted these will go in the low levs, while the BD's will stay in the high lev.

How does it smoke?...well to be honest its not the best tasting weed,quite harsh even...very hashy.The buds are really rock hard...you give then a real good squeeze and they dont really compress at all.
The high tho is complete mong....i dont smoke it until the evening.Still got a amount of the Blue Mystic left from the previous grow so me and the missus tend to smoke that until later.
The Blue Mystic on the other hand is really fruity and soo smooth ...the kinda stuff your always shoving under your nose for long inhales....mmMMmm...it makes the BD's smell rank!
The high tho is your average "go about and do your thing" high....its mellow.2 spliffs of BD and it overpower the Mystic high completly...time for bed


Ok on with my crappy pics...new camera soon hopefully

Hi Grasshopper

Thanks
I've been growing proper for 10 yrs on and off,more off than on.Before that i didnt really know what i was doing.Brick weed seeds on the windowsill kinda stuff

As for being something to aim for ,well....not unless you want more weed than you know what to do with.I've kinda ended up this way by accident,and ther'ed be some explaining to do if caught!! Go staright to prison...do not pass go !!!
Also theres the amount of work you have to put in...this is the 1st time i've ran with 3 tables and this amount of plants and i dont think i quite realised the amount of time it would take to maintain.
I wont even mention the paranoia

Its doesnt matter if your room pales in comparison...as long as you can supply yourself and not have to give the dealers yer money,thats what matters.
Every time i grow its more often than not different,not necassary bigger each time

Thanks again

Hydronaut.

top grow mate
what else can i say
all the best jgs

Hi HD,

New camera shows your babies off better, just taken the plunge myself and bought a Nikon point and click, 2 meg, 3x optical zoom thingy. You have tricomes on your fans sure the bags will come in handy.

Wise words about growing too; to each their own, many pathways to the centre of the heart etc.

Stay safe.

U

Great grow bud!

Nice pics too!

Echo everyone!



Having just spent ages trimming my lot and throwing away so many fan leaves that were covered in trichomes - i reckon it will be bags for me too next time round!

Enjoy!

Dr A

Looking good Hydronaut

What strain you got going there?

Peace

Hi

JollyGoodSmoke....DrAlbs.
..thanks chaps...we try our best huh
I've still got quite away before ive finished playing with these.

Utopiate..
.Cool ,you got a new camera too!!! Had to be done huh....tho i'll miss your trademark striping effects ...or was that the proxy? Hey!!! better quality striping!!

Spacecadet...theyre Black Domina ..Sensi Seeds....quite a harsh smoke(with the slowest of cures) but knocks you on your ass...not the sort of stuff you wanna puff if you want to get things done.


Thanks again for your comments etc....ill update again when they're for the chop

Hydronaut

Hi HD,

Hope you don't mind me hijacking for testing etc, will edit it so I don't disturb the rythym of your thread. This should be in outdoor as that is where she has grown after one month under fluoros. She sort of got left to veg outside in a 10 litre pot, got four feet tall and I thought I would leave her. She has never had more than four hours of direct sunlight a day and considering what she has been through I'm really quite impressed. She was wearing a hat for the past three weeks and her background is Cinderella 99 x Blueberry. I've brought her indoors because I have been scared of mould.

Can I still do it with stripes? Oh, she can go purple if left long enough or cold enough but I can't risk botrytis.

U
edit: LOL well that's a new one lol.

HEH!

Cool...sure,i dont mind u poppin in the thread with a piccy!!
Looking real nice!
You didnt dissapoint with yer trippy stripes!!! top!!!
Seriously tho...nice to see some pics from you...giz some more


Hydronaut

LOL @ ute........ still got dem stripes.....

Hydro thassa top grow.........i now realise the futility of the PM I sent you the othre week, if you know what I mean.....

That black dom always interested me, but I never grew her.....she pure indica then or what....?

You got bubblebags Hydro? Black dom covered in resin , yeah....? Hmmmmmm......

Flooded.... Wounded.......

Mono.....x

You asked for it, top shot with tripod and macro thing of Phyto's bluetooth x thai, 25 days into 12/12, brown bits due to thai stretchy influence, a weekend away and a fan falling on its sword.

Let's see what happens now

Hmmmm, I wonder.......

LOL.....

EDIT>>>>>>>lol, sorry, the plant looks great ute, interesting cross, any idea on the likely finishtime with that Thai in it.......?

Utopiate....Gutted!!!
You need to get that sorted somehow...they look sooo nice..!!!

Mono
Thanks
You see what i mean now,id have been cheeky!
The Black Dom as a product isnt id say purly indica,more a hybrid ,as you probably sussed...tho one pheno is leaning heavily that way...to the point of dwarfism...ive got some 2 weeks from fin at 10 inches tall...silly really...typical pure indica grow pattern..tho obvioulsy it isnt 100%.
But hey...im no expert
Bubblebags...jeez...i got a tiny set...need an upgrade!!!

Hydronaut

Sorry HD,

Just one more go then back to phoning NTL, this one is 27.8 KB (28,478 bytes) it will fit. It WILL fit. Oh, I' tried in my OG gallery and it's doing the same thing.i
