This girl was an absolute pleasure to grow and watch fade into those beautiful purple colours. This was one of my first girls under a 315w CMH so I was still getting used to the adjustment throughout this girls grow. If I was to run her again, I now know the optimal heights to have the light at each stage of growth throughout flower (stretch/bloom), and also penetration isn't as much as my previous 250w HPS so heavy defoliation is necessary. This seems even more harsh as the full spectrum encourages more foliage, but it definitely pays off. I believe knowing the extent of this with experience beforehand would have increased yield, but overall I'm very happy with how this girl turned out. She smells absolutely amazing; a completely different flavour/terpene profile than anything else being ran in the Den. Each bud has stunning purple calyxs within, and are coated in trichomes. She's a great strain to smoke throughout the day for me as she takes the edge off my back pain, but still keeps me aware and thinking clear. Another great strain from Royal Queens Seeds that I think any grower would have the pleasure of having in their garden. Thanks RQS βοΈπΊ

Nutrients
Been using the GHE base nutrient line for a long time. It works for me and I like the fact that this line is a 3 part, meaning I can feed at the ratios I wish to feed throughout a cycle and can control what is being fed exactly.
In regards to Ripen, I've seen many people say it speeds up the ripening stage and can be used throughout flush, but because it has a PK value I used it the same as any other PK booster and stopped feeding to give a full 2 week flush. With this girl I used it the week before flush (wk6), but in future I'll be using it in either wk 4 or 5. It's only used for one week. Everything is always super frosty and perfectly healthy so I can only put it down to the environment and what was being put in the coco!
TriPart Micro
TriPart Grow
TriPart Bloom
FinalPart
Never had any issues using Growth Technology Liquid Slilicon. The plants are perfectly bendable in veg and strong in structure. I've also never had issues with their Cal-Mag, but was forced to change brand when my hydro shop stopped selling it.
I think Mammoth P improves overall health and wellness of the plants. As this was my first time running this strain, I can't exactly give a definite, honest opinion on whether it has increased yeild for this strain or not, or how much exactly. But there's no denying that the little microbes do their part when used in an already healthy grow. I'd always recommend it to anyone who is curious and hasn't tried for themselves.
I'm new to this brand of Cal-Mag and was basically forced into using it as it's the only Cal-Mag my hydro shop now sell. At first thought it seems very watery. I'm used to Cal-Mag being the thickest of all nutrients/supplements that I feed my plants, but not this one in particular. As of this moment, I'm still not completely certain if it's been up to par. During this run, I've had high pH issues throughout the garden not long after using this, meaning calcium and other nutrients were locked out of a couple of plants. It's since been difficult to get calcium levels at the absolute optimal amount as I had before, with growth tech. This Bubble Kush hasn't shown deficiency, but calcium is very important, especially in coco so any lack of it is a loss of growth in the end.
Thank you to everyone who has been following, commenting and liking each week, it keeps the motivation to create the best diaries I can for everyone to enjoy or learn anything they can from. This was another fun run, with stunning colours to finish. She was dried for 7 days before being dry trimmed and jarred for curing.
Because I have 4 seperate plants/strains in one tent, under one light, I've had to calculate these by dividing the conditions by 4 (4 plants in total sharing same conditions). This is the fairest and only way to work it out properly.
Thanks for following and happy growing! πΊ

@Teamdirtbag2, yes I think if I was to get another ceramic it would have to be the DE 630w. But for now I'm going to upgrade to a standard 600w HPS as there's still a lot going on, with the new 600w Ceramic HPS etc. I'll wait until they're cheaper are more readily available haha πΊ

Teamdirtbag2commented6 years ago
@TheFoxFarmer, that's kind of what I thought. The double is supposed to be equivalent to a 600 hps. I think it's the 615 or something like that. But seems expensive. I haven't found anyone using it.

@Teamdirtbag2, I understand what you mean and in all honesty I don't believe either way is wrong (as long as explained). I wouldn't run only one plant under the one light, otherwise she'd be 4x the size she is/was. This is why i think this is the best way for me to work out the average for the full enviroment. My Apologies, I have no problem being asked anything, I just can't stand sarcastic questions.
In regards to the 315w CMH vs 250w HPS I still haven't came to a conclusion in all honesty. The CMH is slightly cooler than the HPS but it's harder work to get the same weight. There's a lot more defoliation involved to get it to penetrate enough. The full spectrum of the CMH gives the girls more stunning winter colours too throughout flush, but that's about it. I expected more from the 315 but I'm keeping it in until I get a 600w HPS πΊ
