Plants were started around January/February. Slowly but surely I prune and morphed them into the beasts they are in those photos. The trunks of the plants are up to 4 inch in diameter and some of the horizontal stems for the ScrOG are up to 3 feet long and thicker than a fat marker.
Wedding cake and Tropicanna Glookies LOVE cal/mag. They friggin LOVE IT. It got to the point where I didn't even measure the amount just dropped what "felt" right out of the 2 gallon jug into the feed for the plants. Probably fed up to 40mg in 15L sometimes without any negative effects.
Wedding cake has HUGE leaves, Tropicanna has smaller but more dense foliage.
7 Gallon fabric pots with Pro-Mix soil. Fed every 2 days 15L water 10ppm with Cal/mag & FloraNova Grow & Diamond Nectar. Fertilized EVERY watering without issues.
Tropicanna Glookies did not stretch like the Wedding Cake in height, so I propped them up to make up for the lost height and quicken the pruning time for a ScrOG.
Plants are in a 5x5 Tent @ 1000 Watts 19c 59%humidity
Really curious how the wedding cake turns out. Just put some beans in the cup yesterday, heard great things about their wedding cake and since I could not get Jungle Boys ANYWHERE, I decided too try Canuks. Looks great btw
@TopShelfTrees,
One things for sure, they are friggin JAM packed with bud. Massive weight for even the tiniest nug. The tropicanna I could squish to near nothing and it'd pop back out to normal. Wedding cake is like trying to press in a brick.
Going to be monster yields.
Canuk seeds generally LOVE cal/mag btw. I notice Cal/mag issues on Canuk genes more than any other bean companies ive tried so don't skip out on the cal/mag.
Well, I felt like I should give this a proper ending.
I used Canvas Labs to get a Health Canada level screening of all parameters available (was like $700 bucks) and it came back showing lead and mercury.
I freaked the hell out, contacted them, and they ran samples to an even higher level lab, it was quite an intense experience.
I had massive, massive anxiety... am i smoking lead and mercury tainted pot? How did it get into my grow?
So BAM I chuck all my ferts and re-buy a newer better brand
So BAM I chuck the felt vivosun 7 gallon pots. (Why? Cause who's frigging kidding here, do you trust anything made in a manufacturing plant made in China, sold to a supplier, slapped with a label from some rich dude who pays for it and calls it vivosun on amazon's platform where they routinely send crap so bad it breaks upon use or doesn't work at all so they delete the product and you can't get your money back cause its just gone from product detail info for returns. (That was my colloidal silver, the previous example was a box fan))
So BAM i kill my 4 darling 5 foot tall, 6inch diameter trunk 11 month old plants.
And of COURSE Canvas labs comes back saying there was a lab error, there was no lead and mercury.
So that was a nightmare, and I killed the above plants.
This whole scenario sent me back massively financially and while waiting for my upgraded production medical license also, has caused a lot of time between my last postings of grows.
Shiiiiiit that was long. Posted for anyone who was curious, I use this as a diary mainly as well for long term retrieval of issues how I fixed them and results etc etc. for any necessary future need.
I was originally hesitant about posting why I killed them so blamed it on hydro. I asked a lawyer friend If it's safe to talk about it happening, they said yea, so that's why I'm mentioning it now. I would have kept these ladies alive for multiple flowering rounds.
Ramble over
