Very happy, made scrog net by myself, so today is my 1 day( and plant) ever growing with scrog:) and as u see she was well prepared for this. replanted in a 30l pot as well 70s 800£ designer reflector:))))) ( been taken from it's original stand and used in my grow room:) so I hope Red Dragon will appreciate it
Red Dragon is doing great. I think I'll give her another 2 weeks. Last month I keep her at 40% humidity and 30°c with good ventilation and cold air flow inside. She drinks 10L per 5 days, and eating max of bio bizz nutrs per feeding. 40ml of bloom and 40ml of top max.Smells amazing. Guava, pine, sweet. And very , very frosty.
P.S. little correction from last time. It's not 60 it's 80 main colas on this monster
Hi comrades. I almost there:). Red Dragon on it's final stage, and she is doing great. Pink colors start getting more distinct and smell is crazy. Last week my next door neighbour pop in. She said her house stinks,especially her kids bedroom. So I have to patch all holes in my grow room:) I use old school technique and drill 3 holes in stem, to increase crystal production in final week. I will keep it fully dry as well for the same reason.
Super duper day stuff, makes me start making wooden rings:))))) so this smoke is very strong and makes me creative. Than long lasting relaxation all over my body.
Well ladies and gentlemen Red Dragon is finally ready:) Its been a long but very enjoyable journey. From almost fucking it up in the beginning to beautiful monster in the end. Had no problems with GROW at any time. Soil and organic plant food is my answer. The only regret, that I didn't give it max of 50L( 50L is size of the bag) soil when replanted, just 30L , but now I can tell that with extra 20L I could spread it fully and get more buds. During Veg I took quiet few leafs off, but red dragon was taking every good and bad stress I was throwing at her, same at flowering stage, when she went through big defoliation and lolyppoping main 80 colas later on. She been drinking 10L every 4 days during Flower and been kept under 250w HPS with 40% humidity, 29°c and good ear flow inside grow room. Last 3 weeks I stressed her with drilling holes through the stem for more crystal production, keeping her fully dry for few days and playing with dark and light cycles. The nutes I used is Bio Bizz Veg, Bloom, and Top Max for last month. Never bother with PPM meter, just kept tab water outside for 4 days before watering. Only PH was adjusted to 6.5. During lolyppoping I took off around 50gr of small bottom buds, ending up with taking another 100 gr in the end. Was expecting at least 200gr but hey. The colours Red Dragon shows in the end and dragon leafs made me very happy :) Smell was crazy. My next door neighbour been complaining:)))). Smoke is super potent and narcotic. Regarding paranoia negative effect that stated in most Red Dragon reviews is wrong. No paranoia just positive vibes. Buds are dense and heavy
@smoking_hills9,Yeah man!😀
it's by reading you that I understand the meaning of XL, XXL, you know this girl, mine's stretching, i can’t contain her stretching, i study clones on XL XXL strains, i wouldn’t want to miss this experience 💪👽😎
@Whitoutduty,
Thanks man. Next time only xl, xxl strains for scrog. With my RD , she just didn't have that extra push at first 3 weeks of flower and didn't grow , and even stop groving week before. And next grow I am gonna have 20plants, all xl or xxl, autos. That would be fun😎
Very Interesting . Im using a 600 watt HPS its adjustable down to 250 watt why do you do that ? how far away did you keep your lamps ? Drilling holes in the roots ...Wow who would have known ! at what point did you do that ? what drill size did you use ? Fascinating ! do you think it would work with a completely hydroponic system ,,,, what a beautiful grow congrats !!! if I asked too many question i apologize ... im just excited as its my very first grow and trying to learn from proven awesome growers such as your😎self ,,,Cheers
Hi Gatto. Thanks for so many good words, I am sure your Red Dragon would be beauty as well :) I am still learning myself and trying different things during grow. Yes drilling holes in stem or splitting it( that's original way to do it) drilling is more easy but same effect. Stressing the plant and make her produce more cristals( not buds). U have to do it 2 weeks before harvest. Yes it will work with hydro. Light to plant distance around 40cm. Good luck with your RD, you doing great job👍
yep yours definitely looks identical to my past Indoor crop.. I believe Barney's Farm underestimated this crops power.. I've been smoking since the 1980s and I am seasoned.. for some reason Red Dragon makes me go sideways hahaha!
@Squaregrouper,
Red Dragon is another Barney's Farm strain built on their Red line genetics. It is the product of crossing Himalayan Kush with Utopia Haze – a popular Brazilian sativa used often by Barney's for breeding. The result is an amazing sativa-dominated hybrid that produces buds that deliver an effect that is bold, prolonged, even playful and, best of all, totally sativa.
Barney's Farm has achieved a greater than 90% stability with Red Dragon. They germinate well and grow quickly. The seedlings are very hardy and present with a deep red colour almost from the beginning.
Long before it is ever harvested, Red Dragon will provide much aesthetic appeal in your cannabis garden or grow room. When mature, this plant really lives up to its name. Its appearance only adds to its mysticism and charm, having the look and colour of dragon's skin. It has a white scaly crystal coating with red hair-like cilia that evoke images of dragon's breath.
Red Dragon grows well both indoors and outdoors and only grow to about 2.5 to 3 feet average. It branches nicely with resinous colas and will flourish even better when provided room to stretch. Flowering time is about 8 weeks and yields are above average.
But the one thing that really earns the moniker for this strain is the very high THC content that its buds contain. It is as if the plant is hoarding it like treasure in a dragon's lair. Needless to say, the effect is extremely powerful and immediate. This is an exceptionally strong high – practically narcotic – but finishes off with a warm, long-lasting couch-locked stone effect. The flavour dances on the palate with hints of sweet tropical guava. Best of all, Red Dragon has a long shelf life and will maintain its vigour for months.
@Squaregrouper,
Sounds good to me:))))) that's what you want after 30 of smoking, something you can feel:))) something that breaks that tolerance and send you on a new level:) I tried some bottom buds already and yes this stuff is super strong, but I still can function and do things:) Sativa dominants rules.
my crop indoors looks identical must be the same phenotype.. I can't believe how solid and uniform the buds are.. and it is such a resinous crop I could tell by your pictures!
@smoking_hills9, ha ha well that's a mystery to me ! great results you do have so really what's the big problem with this or with that hahaha big up anyway and thank you for teaching so well 👊
@CRiSPrGrow
Thanks man. I done my part, and registered this monster once, but for some reason it didn't even took top 5, after that I am not interested anymore in there (same people, most likes) competition. Most important for me is a good stuff to smoke and stay healthy, not there silly awards. Growmies likes and good words is biggest prize for me 👍
I heard about the drilling holes increases potency .... I must try this on 2nd grow. Was interesting to see you only use 250 watts . I started my dragon at 600 ... was too much went down to 400 seems to be staying at optimal. Thanks for helping me out ! Any advice on drilling ?
@GetTheGat,
I had big square reflector, so 250w hps was more then enough. And it still was making loads of heat. Didn't like it at all. Just take a drill and make few holes 2 weeks before harvest same thing as stamp splitting just easier.
