Dinafem-Mark Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Thanks so much for getting this grow diary going mate just reading it sounds like has been very hectic We did used to label the vials also but we stopped doing this several years back so here's hoping you got the right strain Our industrial plant was one of the first strains specially designed for the indoor grow environment, she's a very fast flowering lady 45-50 days with a decent yield. The last quadrant I ran 4 plants per light was around 16oz per light so not a bad yield I'll be along for the ride mate. I think you'll be quite impressed with the end product and again thank you for following through with the grow diary and thank you for the picture update mate much appreciated. Until the next update All the best D-M. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinbud Posted October 2, 2016 Author Share Posted October 2, 2016 (edited) Did i mention id do something later on in the week there ?! Ha ha ha You know im wrecked if i start repeating myself like a pub talker ha ha ha @@botanics cheers for popping through. It was your ip cbd diary that made me think of the orginal mate. Again, the fact there werent much on it out there reeled me in. If what was out there had of been negative experiences then i may not of gone for it. that werent the case though and infact everyone that spoke of growing it had said how nice it was. @@Geordiejames420 Everyones welcome my friend so pull up a chair, kick up a foot, light up a fatty and buckle up for the journey mate. Glad to have you along. @@DCC I will be popping those to do on here aswell shortly ... well thats if i aint already got them on the go that is Edited October 2, 2016 by Sinbud 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinbud Posted October 2, 2016 Author Share Posted October 2, 2016 @@Dinafem-Mark thanks for coming by. You must forgive me for not starting this diary sooner but at one point i wasnt sure if i could continue growing fullstop. Everything mostly i could deal with but i ended up with the old bill out here twice due to my neighbours being complete cnuts and as im legal custodian to my daughter i just could not risk having them on my door step at the wrong time. Anyway things have settled down now and alls been quiet for a few months and im going with the attitude that all its done is put me behind a little, so onwards i go ! I will of course be honouring the 2 grow diaries with the strains you guys so kindly gifted ,but will end up running into the new year so my apologies again. Forward we go 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinbud Posted October 4, 2016 Author Share Posted October 4, 2016 So As we Move onwards and upwards ............. To say i'm impressed is an understatement ! only 12 hours in and i have a full House !! I popped them back in their kelpy Blanket for a few more hours and went off to work. Once the Day was done, i arranged the polystyrene cups with just enough coco so that the heads would be just under the medium surface. I pre-soaked each of these with a solution of maxicrop and magne cal @ 0.25ml per litre, left for an hour and then came back to dig them a hole each before burying them into their new temporary places of residence. I spray 1 squirt of the solution over the top of each cup once a day and once established I saturate daily with the same solution to draw that fresh air into the rootzone and they doooo love that seaweed i will carry on like this until the cotlyedons wither away and then start with my feed regime. Main reason for the magne cal was to buffer up the coco a bit. I used to get deficiencies every time with seedlings and establishing clones that were a few weeks in. Since doing this it's completely eliminated the problem for me so its standard practice in my garden. I then got the zip locks out and wedged them in over 2 bags and locked them in tight. Off to their new home for a bit now ! For the next few weeks they will be switched between the 2 x 15w fluoros more in the red and 1 x 15w T5 type lamp that is on the blue side. I like to give them a bit of both spectrum's and i do find they root pretty quickly since doing this. I double up the cups and the bottom one acts as a spill off to the top which have holes crudely ripped out around the base. I've had the same cups since September last year and only ever loose the odd one to excessive roots growth mangled outside the holes ! Bummer eh ? Il be back up in the next few days with a Real Time update and were currently a couple of days into week 3 im of to and slap my go to station - Kool London - on the wyliss !!

Dinafem-Mark Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 That's what we like to see 12 hours and a 100% germination rate this is always a great way to start a grow. Nice job on potting up into there new homes and these should at 3 weeks be well on there way Thank you again for starting this grow diary and thank you for the picture update mate much appreciated.

The ip photoperiod can start of with the 2 tap leaves then the next set will be 1 finger education then 3 finger education up until node 4-6 not very often does this occur but yes it is a ip trait Nothing to worry about mate All the best D-M.

Sinbud Posted October 21, 2016 Author Share Posted October 21, 2016 Sorry for the Lack of updates but not a great deal of action been going on over here .. well not on the garden front anyway. I had an unexpected knock at the door from the plod last week about my neighbour. They didnt get through the front door and my house allways smells nice from the air freshners scattered thoughout so not overly concerned. My dear old mum's got a nose like a blod hound when it comes to weed odours and if she cant smell it on her visits then i should be all good. new filters a few months ago so what i would expect. Anyway...... Lets have a lil catch up shall we ?! Im a typical bloke and like looking at things rather than reading loads of guff so here we go .... So my feeding schedule is well on the way. They have been getting an ec of 1.2 for the first 3 weeks after the cotyledons wither away . Before that they had feedings of calmag and seaweed and just water every other day. Last week i started feeding between 1.2 and 1.6 every other day as they were looking as if they needed the extra feed. I can see them being hungry little buggers !! My feeding regime is a little obscure to say the least ... I orginally started off with canna coco as i was using that before i last gave up growing probably back in 2005 or 6 ?!@$ anyway.. i thought id go back to what i know only to realise that they must of changed the design of the nutes as every plant i chucked them at picked up a deficiency .. either cal mag or p to be precise. Anyway i had a load of bottles kicking about still since that 2006 grow (stored unopen in a ambient storage unit as i once owned a hydro store) so i decided to analyze the coco a and b and run tem through a nifty little spreadsheet i have. Anyway i basicaly made up my own feed program with what bottles i had which should see the plant through its entire life cycle. I can drop the n down and increase the p for the whole of week 5 flower if i wanted but have nt seen a significant difference. So heres my coco regime Per litre 0.5ml coco a and b 1.5ml pk 13/14 3ml cal mag 1ml trace So the bulk of N actually comes from the calmag while providing enough levels of calmag to fend off any crippling defficiencies. The a and b is there puely to just take the N to optimum levels and at a little of the trace and humic/fulvic acids.The pk is just right for the entire life cycle and the trace keeps evetything rounded off. So in 10 litres of water i add 5litres worth of nutes (half dose) and this gives me an ec of 1.4 . 3ml worth in 10litres gives me 1.2 ec and 7litres worth in 10litres gives me 1.6 where as the full 10ml worth in 10 litres gives me between 1.8 and 1.9 ec. Although never really got past 7ml per 10litre. Less s always more in my book anyway. Anyone interested in seeing the results of this regime should pass thrugh my signature diary . Il be uploading some resulting nugg pix over there later on. Any way i will be back with a current day update over the weekend and hopefully will be getting ready for flowering at end of next week. Im off for a fatty so until next time, take care out there people 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinafem-Mark Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Some nice growth showing mate and they are definitely going to live the extant medium that is there due to the potting up . Your feeding regime and ec sound bang on mate Now they have been potted up and have some extra room these should now hit the rapid veg stage Thank you for the picture update mate much appreciated and keep up the great work! Until the next update All the best D-M. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinbud Posted December 12, 2016 Author Share Posted December 12, 2016 My apologies to mark and dinafem crew. Unfortunately my problems with my neighbours escalated to the point where i spent a night at her majs pleasure after splatting the dads next doors nose accross his face. Luckily i pre empted it and cleared my yard of all evidence of plant life just to find they didnt even search the place. Any way, charges dropped after the cnut see sense as he threw first punch. Im now looking to move next year but intend on doing a run in the first few months of 2017 and thankfully 3 out of the 5 IP's survived the shitty conditions they were left in for 2 or so weeks. The next few weeks will be spent getting them back to health ready for a new year flower party. Apologies once again but we will get to run these even if it breaks me 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinbud Posted February 26, 2017 Author Share Posted February 26, 2017 Hey all... Hope you lot are all good !!? I finally have the 3 remaining phenos in a small flowering tent. The survivors were pheno 2, 4 and 5 and They are currently 2 weeks in since the flip. I have given them a good veg so they could fully recover from their abuse and neglect towards the end of last year and they have bounced right back. They are now in 8 litre fabric pots and doing fantastic. I dont hold out for much on this run as far as yield but i should have a new keeper out of this lot. I really wanted something that would grow well in veg and flower really quickly. I had always had my eye on pheno 4 as it kept quite short and squat and was the first to throw pistils up signalling its maturity. This little beauty has met my earlier expectations so far and was the first to show pre bud formation at just 4 days in. Fingers crossed that this will be my early finisher ! Just got to hope that the smoke wil be up to parr if it is . I have managed to take cuttings of the remaining phenos so will be ready to go in on a mono straight after this lota has finished. I will throw some piccys up in the next day or two but for now i just wanna say im so glad to be back and look forward to what the ip's bring to my garden. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinafem-Mark Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Great to hear that you managed to salvage 3 mate and yes you should easily find a keeper out of these 3 for your next run Will look out for a picture update until then thank you for letting us know what's going on All the best Mark. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
