Super excited to finally run an IHG strain! I have been running Autoflower for a while and I am happy to announce I am back to running photoperiod strains again! I have a new grow space and some new equipment to run some new (to me) strains! It's going to be an exciting run!
📔 I am starting this diary a bit late in the game... good thing I have been taking lots of pictures for Instagram and I am pretty consistent on my feeding schedule! I look forward to sharing with y'all!
👑🥥 Using Royal Gold Tupur with added DynoMyco and Azos mixed in.
📺 Stay tuned!
✌️💚❄️🌲
🗓️ Week 2: 12/4 - 12/10
🚫📸 I didn't get pictures during the next few weeks.
Like any good excuse this starts with... well,what had happened was... During this time I had a pH probe fail, bought a new one. The new probe didn't look like the original and wouldn't calibrate. I bought it on Amazon, so I am guessing it was not authentic BlueLab and the pH of the solution I was feeding was definitely way off. I ended up buying a Hanna GroLine Combo meter and absolutely love it. Highly recommend that meter to anyone. I also bought a new tent. (I started these in a 2x4 Castle Greens and now I have a 28"x28" Mars Hydro) Since my pH was off and was rearranging and setting up my new grow space, plants suffered during these weeks and didn't have time or desire to take pictures.
🗓️ Week 10: 1/29 - 2/4
1/30 - Transplanted from 1 gallon to 3 gallon AC Infinity fabric pots.
2/3 - 🌱 Took more cuttings. Soaked for 24+ hours in Rapid star solution with Azos.
2/4 - Dipped cuttings in rooting gel compound and coated with rooting powder. Then placed cuttings in Root Riot starter plugs and placed in propagation trays with domes. Set heating mat to 77°F and placed trays with domes on the mat with the probe inserted on the side of one of the plugs between the plug and tray. Misted with potassium silicate foliar spray.
🗓️ Week 17: 3/23 - 3/29
📆 Week 7 of 12/12
🌄 The plant is starting to go into senescence and presenting some beautiful colors as she begins to fade.
💡 Received new lighting courtesy of Growers Choice. They sent me the ROI-E420 with the Master Controller. First impression is amazing. Looks and feels like very high quality build. The spectrum seems more blue than the 3000k lm301H Kingbrite bars I have been using. The bars are thinner and packed with a lot of diodes, so they do run a little hotter than the KB at full power. I adjusted and now running them at 90%. For now the Kingbrite bars are being used as side lighting dimmed to about 30-35% depending on Grow room temps.
Nice they purpled a bit 😎💜💚💨 if you run your lights a bit dimmed they will also last longer, as I heard a lot of commercial grows get strong lights and run them on 80-90% so they will last longer ! I personally testet cheap leds next to expensive ones and I don't see a real difference myself to spent double the amount of money 🤷♂️ a few years ago I would have recommend people to buy an expensive led from a good brand company but in those days u get really efficient good leds for cheap compared to the crazy prices some labels put out there 😁✌️🏻
@FoTwenny,Ok cool nice to know! Where i live there is only 8 weeks of summer 🤣 basically so I have the opposite problem sometimes I have to hang an hps in my tent so its getting warm enough 😁 ! If you want to cool the room its definetly the right choice what your doing and as we said it even benefits you in more other ways too ✌️🏻💚💨🙏🏻
@FacelessGardens, I have had good results with the Kingbrite bars and boards from China I bought through Alibaba. I have used Geeklight boards too. Growers Choice hooked it up and the touch screen master controller is pretty fancy and has cool options. TBH I willl probably run both lights from the top after I harvest. Position the kingbright bars between the bars on the Growers Choice and run them both between 50-65%. I am thinking it will help keep the grow room cooler and, as you mentioned, help prolong the life of the lights. Not to mention provide a broader light spectrum and even coverage.
@HAPPY91, I am slacking on the final update, but it smokes like a dream. Great Kush strain in my opinion. Going to keep cloning her and see if I can keep improving her final yield and quality. I have a clone about to finish flowering. The newest run I added CO2 enrichment, so definitely going to yield better. Cheers! ☺️
I love that your plants look so healthy so far into flower. I see a lot of growers have crispy yellowed leaf and say it's the plants using up all the nutes... Well that's bullshit as we see here . Big frosty buds and healthy vegetation to continue supporting the plant.. growing done right..🙏🏼🙏🏼💚🌿
