Did a medium defoliation in the middle of week 4 prob around day 25. Everything is going smooth and I will most likely add another layer of trellis once they start packing on more weight.
Continuing to reduce nutrient strength. Started flushing with R/O water near the end of week 7. Everything is starting to fade with purples coming out and reeking of fruit punch gas. This slurricane pheno leans more on the purple punch side. I ran another pheno which leaned more on the dosidos side in the past but the bag appeal just wasn't there with the finished product.
Sorry for the shitty pics... my iPhone camera is just not cutting it at the moment.
*Sorry for the shitty pics and video... my iPhone camera will not stop glitching and is having trouble focusing.
Flushed about 4.5 liters of R/O water with 100ppm of Cal/Mag as a buffer to keep PH stable at 6.0 in my res. About 3 days later flushed again with 2 liters and continuing to repeat as medium drys out every other day. Plants are almost all faded to a nice purple. Trichomes are cloudy and will be chopping a couple of days into week 9. Smell is amazing as usual - pungent fruit punch gas. Looking forward to turning this room around and repeating. I'll try to start posting some other journals of different strains as well. Keep an eye out for Garanimals and Sundae Driver both by Cannarado Genetics.
I ended up running these plants a total of 60 days. Topped each plant 2-3 times. Once flipped to flower the plant does not stretch much. The final product is dense, sticky, frosty buds with a fruit punch and piney gas aroma. Yield for this pheno is above average, but I highly recommend trying to get a top in every trellis hole to get maximum yield. Overall I pulled a little over 3lbs off of 16 plants.
Notes:
Room size: I'm not sure what to put as grow room size below... room was 8x8x6.7
Gram per watt: Gram per watt per plant doesn't seem to be the best measure in my opinion as it would encourage you to grow fewer plants with longer veg times to get the same yield. Unless I'm missing something?
The actual power draw from the wall for each light is = 355watts per 315 LEC x 4 = 1420 watts in Flower.
The yield was 1380 grams which makes the total Gram/Watt ration = 0.9718
***Sorry for the shitty pics... my phone camera is still shit right now and these are all the pics I could get at the moment.
Impressive! Excellent diary as well. Just got some of these SLURRICANE IX seeds!
What’s your opinion on adding Co2 (600ppm) during veg and (800-1000ppm) in flower? Could improve the yield and potency?
Would’ve adding one more week before flush improved much?

@TheCrippledChicken, sorry for the late reply here. Thank you for the compliments! If you are able to add Co2 then yes absolutely do it. My run was without added Co2. I was simply exchanging out fresh air while outside temps were acceptable for my rooms. Now with it being summer weather, I'm having to run the AC and add Co2. Regardless, if you are able to seal your rooms and add Co2 you will always benefit (especially in flower). I would run Co2 in flower at 1000-1200ppms. That's just my 2 cents from past experience. As for 1 more week of flush... I don't think it would improve much. 2 full weeks of flush has always had yielded great results on my end.
@Pochogrower, Thanks! No, I don't water in between feedings. When I run Coco the plants always get fed with nutrients until the final 1.5-2 weeks when they get flushed with r/o water only. Generally, I will feed based on what the plant needs. Some need 2L every other day, some need 1-1.5L every other day. I will switch it up and do larger feeds when I feel the plants need it to flush out any old salts or possible build up. For example, 1 time per week I will up the feed to 4-5L so there's plenty of runoff.
Great job 👍👍🔥 my favorite strain. Guess what in house Genetics have a sale every Tuesday until Wednesday @11:59pm. All major seed banks doing the sale. They pick 4 different strains each week. This week is Slurricane plus 3 other. Instead of $200-$250. They are $130. 1l0 fems seeds plus 2 fem freebies. I split a few packs with some other growers. Got 2-4 seeds of 4 different strains for cheap. Check their Instagram. If you already know I apologize. Burning gotta spread what the word get some getting great genetics at a decent price.
