Perkz going all noodle doodles with bubbas gift

[perkie_uk101]

Welcome all. 

 

Thank you mark for giving me the chance to go potty with this.

 

So... Its the all famous potnoodle challage!  I have read many storys about this and Its great to be taking part.

 

So it all starts tonight! 

 

My pot of choice is the famous king size Curry. 

 

All three beans have gone in the paper/cloth method. Put in a bag and placed at back of freezer

 

Now its time to woof this lot down. 

 

.............

 

 

Mmm!... That tasted like a saucy bit of cardboard... Nothing changed there then! 

 

Ok so iv been lerking about the others, trying to get some ideas on how to go about the first early stages. So far @vince noir rock n roll star i think?? He has got the idea and i am feeling that. I promise thats all i will be taking from you dude.  

 

From then onwards i have my own ideas on how i will be training ect.. and hopefully get that finishing winning yield! 

 

Enviroment- depending on space, we will eaither be in my tent with some others, in soil, under an enviro first, finished with a 600w, feed with bio biz range or put outside and will force flower due to pot size. As we progress will know more. 

 

So i would like to wish you all good luck who have participated in the challege.

 

The famous games have just begun.

@perkie_uk101 Its great to have you along mate with this epic competition 

 

Your plan sounds solid and I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for 100% germination. 

 

Can I ask?

 

You have started 3 seeds!

 

If all 3 sprout which they should will you be growing them all "pot noodle" style? 

 

Good luck mate  Let's see what you can do in the 1st HSO pot noodle challenge 

 

Kind regards

Ok so Been scrating my head over the root temps... Its just come to me,  its because i have a board of celotex underneath the tent! Ffs! 

i done this to stop the vibration going through the floor as i have thin carpet and didnt want any noise going underneath. .

going to see if i can find a big rug or something and try again...Not long got setup so trying to dial in at the minute. We will get there..

It's going to take a bit of tinkering to get it right mate but your getting their 

 

Nice to see 100% germination and great to read that you'll be doing atleast 2 of these in pot noodle containers 

 

When do you plan on potting into the pot noodle containers? 

 

Looking good so far. A few wrinkles to iron out but your on track

 

Until the next one 

 

Kind regards

HI how are we all?

 

It's been a while since I was on last but I am still in the game... well just about!

What a nightmare I have had!

 

Lost me fone outdoors 2 weeks ago whilst looking for plots for me outdoor antics.  1 of the seedlings I dent the stem and it died. The other was lanky with tiny and I mean tiny leafs and short nodes and For love or money i cant find her at all? 

last time I remember seeing her was in the bathroom with my chillis.. I then went outside to plant chilli plants but its is nowhere to be seen since then. she is offically lost/missing!! 

 

At one point during all this with the issue iv had with temps and lack of funds ect.  I was going to terminate the whole grow and chuck all me plants outdoors!  but then I had a breakthrough... I manage to get some funds and got myself to a cool tube. Not long got a fone also so I am happy and more relaxed now its all sorted and I am still in the game. Literally just about hehe

 

So without further doos, I would like you all to give a warm welcome to the one and only.. "Dorris" 

She is abit slow (might just be me tho) but never the less she is a fighter and a force to be reckoned with! 

 

So be afraid! Hahah

Someone ring "missing plants" and alert them we have a missing bubbas gift last seen with her chilli friends

 

You've had a rough start my friend . 2 lost phones and 2 failed attempts now the 3rd is up and looking good

 

So it's "Dorris" to the rescue 

 

She's looking good at this early stage. Don't be concerned about the slower than normal veg as this strain is known for this

 

Let the fun begin with a lot better luck

 

Kind regards

Day 45 veg/day 1 flower

 

HI all hope we all doing well. It's been a busy for me to keep up with regular updates.

 

Dorris is coming along nicely and She has fitted very well with the others. They may not be her sisters but they have taken to her like she part of the family. I think she has also forgiven me she looks happy happy. 

 

I flipped the switch so we now on day 1 flower. I am thinking of taking a cut at the 2ND true node and she should stretch well with it. . This method creates 4 main colas instead of 1. I normally do this is bigger pots and has more veg time so this be interesting to see how this pans out. 

 

For anyone interested, these can be viewed on my current grow. 

 

@HSO-Mark still no show. I have had no reports back from the missing plant team. But To be honest I have been having flash backs of me binning her because she looked stunted and I was high! Just don't tell Dorris tho marc yea, I don't want to upset her again 

 

The tent is holding up well and things have been stable here so all good in the hood.

tis a brave man that uses the curry pot ..all the best //look at the stem on it already ..brace yerself for feeding sooner than yer think .

[perkie_uk101]

Yea dude the curry was mild. Bombay bad boy was my favorite back in the day tho. 

 

You spot on there dude.  She is showing signs slight pale look since switch. . Just give here a dose of alg bio. Watering is going to be every 2 days or so, so on next water she be getting a dose of grow ect

Bring on the flower show

 

You've done a decent veg, training and topping are in play so let's see how this fairs now the bloom phase is here

 

I agree with @vince noir rock n roll star she's going to get hungry and fast so I would start giving some feed to help keep those leaves green and "dorris" happy 

 

She's looks great so far so let's see what she's got

 

Thanks for the update mate I'll keep dropping in to see how she's doing

 

Kind regards 

 

Mark..

[perkie_uk101]

@HSO-Mark hey ya dude. She was defo hungry, fast too. She court me of guard as with another. The leafs have yellowed up quick so not so green I am afrraid. Its not called the pot noodle challage for nothing. Hehe Live and learn! 

 

 She had a 2ml grow/1ml alg yesturday. I never got round to topping also so that's gone out the window.  Here's a group shot of the girls. Dorris is in the bottem right. No hairs as of yet too.

It is certainly a challenge mate that said your doing great

 

Maybe try increasing feed time so she's being fed more times a day as those roots are going to get dry and fast

If it was me I would be aiming to do 2-4 watering per day if this is viable?

 

Now you know the issue in confident  things will improve

 

Thanks for the update mate I'll drop back in on the next 

 

Kind regards

Thank you marc for the support. Since last update She is starting to stretch up abit now. 

 

I have taken on board what you have said about the watering so I am keeping the soil moistish, feeding from the bottom. I am doing this daily too. 

 

I will post a pic up later when lights on.

 

Chow for now.
