Kushpialidocious (Supercaliskunkolistic)

MONDAY 9/17: Okay, so this diary is changing... The original Kushpialidocious (mamma) is just too big to try to manage her along with 13-15 of her clones, even in the 4x5 tent. So, she will be put into 'stasis' for the next month in a closet with about 50w of blue/white light while I finish up my autoflower crop in the small tent. At that point in time, I'll move mamma-Kushpi into the small tent and put her on 12/12...and she'll hopefully be harvested by Christmas. Therefore...all stats and information in this diary will be related to ONLY the Kushpialidocious clones for the next month or so. I added a third Exhale bag to the small tent today, so that's 2 x 365's, and one XL in a 4 x 4 space. What's cool is that I'm using many low-watt lights, so my heat is minimal and I'm able to keep it zipped up and the main ventilation off. My CO2 PPM's are holding at about 1350 until I open the tent!!! Pink Floyd said it best......"Breathe...Breathe in the air..." TUESDAY: So...much...growth! The first planted clones are already almost as big as my biggest seedlings. Grow babies, grow. I gave the cuttings and seedlings 2.5gals of ph'd water doday..along with a little calimagic, bud candy, boomerang, and terpinator. I had two more cuttings ready for dirt, so I planted them today. That's 12 total, with two still in the chamber. I added more light today, so we're up to about 415w total light for the majority of the day, and kicking on the 1500w (360w actual) for an hour a day. 2 x 50w blue/white par38 spots (26w actual each) 2 x 50w blue/white panels (22w actual each) 1 x 150w blue/white panel (74w actual) 1 x 40w(actual) Sansi daylight white par38 2 x 38w (actual) cool white 4' tubes 2 x 9w (actual) full spectrum pink tubes 1 x 18w (actual) warm white 4' tube 1 x 16' SMD 5050 cool white strip light (96w actual) It seems to be working pretty damn well. WEDNESDAY: I planted the next to last cutting today. It was rooted pretty well in the rockwool. My tent humidity has dropped quite a bit since adding all the new lights, so I'm hoping these last 3 that got planted can hang in there and get a taproot deeper into their pots before they dry up.🙏 But, even if they don't make it, I'll be fine... managing 12 plants in the 4 x 5 tent will be a challenge as it is.. I replaced my 2 x 50w blue/white par38 spots with 5 x 150w (12w actual) Miracle LED 475nm blue bulbs..less heat/better coverage. RH about 45%, CO2 ppm's holding around 1350, temps in the high 80's. Mamma-kushpi continues to look like shit.. THURSDAY: Mamma-Kushpi got a gallon of slightly weakened nutes early in the day and moved into the darkest recesses of my tent to curb her growth a little. She's still not looking very healthy. If I can get her back on her feet, I'll cut her waaaaay down and move her to a closet with some low-watt blue/cold white light to chill until the auto seedlings finish in the small tent, which should be around the first week or two of November. Then she'll FINALLY get her chance to flower in the 4 x 4, so she can spread out and I won't give a shit.👍 I say that, but today I plantd the last of the 14 clones...I'm gonna have hell managing 14 clones in the 4 x 5 tent, even if 12 of them are in 3gal pots and two of them are in 2gal pots.., so I may end up moving a few into the small tent with their mamma to finish. The first-planted clones are kicking ass. I may top a couple of them tomorrow to try and keep them all about the same height. I gave them all about 32oz of full strength nutes in ph'd water today and did a few foliar feedings. FRIDAY: I didn't top or FIM anybody today...maybe tomorrow. I added another 45w of light to the tent today and moved all the lights closer to the canopy..8-12" ..and rearranged to keep the shorties in pole position. A couple of foliar feedings only today. SATURDAY: I set up the 4 x 5 tent for vegging and moved all the clones into it. They're getting the following light 24/0: -- 1 x 75w blue/white panel in the center (48w actual) -- 4 x 50w blue/cold white spots (25w actual each) -- 4 x 150w Miracle LED blues in corners (12w actual each) -- 4 x 38w (actual) dual-row cool white 4' tube lights -- all 4 of the 3500k COB's (2 x cree cxb3590 + 2 x citizen clu048) (220w actual total) Total draw at the wall: 560w I gave them all about 32oz of ph'd water with calimagic, bud candy, terpinator, and a liitttle boomerang, foliar fed them, and kissed them goodbye.😙 Mamma-Kushpi is out of the tent and sitting all alone with about 27w of blue/white light on her. I'm gonna do a major root drench on her tomorrow while I'm making bubble hash and then prune the hell out of her.😷 She's just got to be patient for a month while I finish up the autos in the small tent, then it's 12/12 for her...finally.😁 SUNDAY: Life crept in and I wasn't able to make bubble hash or do the root drench on her, but I just couldn't stand seeing Mamma-Kushpi outside the tent by herself, so I made room in the big tent with her clones...but considering the rate of growth on the clones, that won't last for long. Everybody was foliar fed a few times today, and I gave a few ounces of distilled water to the freshly-planted clones and regaled fantastical stories of how big and strong they would grow to be someday. 😉
