Here we go the tester seeds from RQS are going in. that makes 8 plants for harvest in around 12 weeks should keep me busy :) New ec meter cam yday so I can start feeding the veg plants now update imminent. It's just dawned on me that Im growing royalty strains with these purple queens along with the King tutukamon strain haha king and queen God im sad lol Well these seeds were as fresh as I have ever had them to the point of green staining around the seed when germing I can only assume it was bits of plant matter left from when they were picked. anyway fastest sproutiing seeds I have ever had.
Hi People :) So 3 of the queens have germinated just waiting on the 4th she seems to be bit slower than the others will be sure to mark that down :) Overall these are growing super fast I added an extrra air line to each pot wont do much atm but Im sure it will help when they are larger more air means faster growth in my experience anyway. Thanks again to James from RQS for allowing me to test this pheno :) the tutkamon has had to stay in this tent until she is large enough to be fed full veg feed I'm thinking around one or two more weeks :)
So not much happening for the queens this week the kiing tut is taking extra long though she will bbe moved into the flower tent shortly as the final purp queen needs to go in. Overall growing very quickly I like it so far :) 100% germination rate whats not to like :) UPdate warmer water now changed for 20 tempt hopefully that will kick them back in :)
Hi Guys everything going smoothly for the queens :) growing nice and quickly for this weather anyway. Really liking the pheno so far will start to feed when the true leaves appear. :)
Hello I have started feeding the queens and two seem too be loving it the other 2 seem to have eaten too much so. I have remove 10 litres of water from the buckets and replaced it with normal water to try and counteract it :) It was only a tiny amount but still could set me back a week or so but meh stuff happens :) Enjoy the pics :)
TESTER UPDATE.
Next diary will be testing SWEET SEEDS strains keep checking in for regular updates :)
So just a normal week for the queens just plodding along nicely I did feed them but only slightly they have a few weeks to catch up to the flower tent if I could afford 4 more buckets I could start 4 more strains but the lack of funds is an issue at the moment. F*ck you covid ! Enjoy the pics will probably up their feed as soon as I have invested in another ph pen.
Hi Guys the queens are going well now they have some good light I dont think Im getting the distancing right with the mars hydro though the cable is extremelty short so I'm going to need an extention cable to exted it to be able to move it to the riight heiight to really utilise the light so I will buy one while im waiting for the buckets for the next Diaries Sweet seeds coming up.
Hi guys so the queens this week are finally speeding up we have slight nuteburn but is is very slight only a few little spots it sure does not seem to be slowing them down. 2 more weeks and they should be ready for the flip :) lets see some queen :) getting into winter now which is great for my plants I can now fine tune the environment to suite them :) thank you England for your crappy weather I love you :) I upped the ec to 0.8 and i think thats where the little nute burn came from. I now know around 0.6-0.7 is the sweet spot for my pre veg phase. so thats one. down only like 3 more to go :) Thanks again for RQS for sending these genetics free of charge great breeder :)
Hey People what can I say about this week I fucked up :( If the queen seen this I'd be drawn and quartered for sure ! I am so sorry I know I can do better water change in 2 days man trying to make a good impression at work is slacking abit. I have the ph meter and ec meter now I will sort it on my one day off this week Sunday I aplogise I am not a rookie I'm just unlucky :(
So we have set the timer forward tonight so lets see these flowers and watch the stretch :) I know one plant is not doing very well I think it was too much air in the tent blowing directly aat it so I have rremoved a fan and tilted the other more out the way :)
Hello So The plants are in full pre flower and stretch mode now. The queens are doing well I moved the one that was not doing very well to the veg tent I will continue to veg it and do some very harsh training with her when shes back upto health. So I will update the pictures during the week I need to re arrange the plants and install the 2nd netting readdy for the next 6 weeks I should of waited one more week but if i did my other plants would very tall and un ruley and I have already topped 2 of them twice.
HI guys what can i say the queens are doing really well after the flip though it seems 7 plants is too man for this space I think 5 is adequate so going forward 5 plants will be vegged and 5 flowered to utilise as much space as i can :)
So here we go look at that purple :) We are only just going into week number 4 of flower too i cant wait to see them dense up and get more and more colour so pretty :) 2 out of 3 of the queens turned purple :) other queen still in isolation though she has had a high feed to try and sort her defiencies out :)
Hello Interesting week for the queens I think the cold temps are really starting to mess with the trike development does not seem to be much they made need more than 8 to finish luckily I don't have to crop these until December if I wish so I think they will have time to mature :)
Hi guys so I decided to really trim the isolated queen up and i trained her for one week to bring the tops out to get light I have also brought the ec down to 0.6 and the ph to 5.8 to try and sort her growth problems out I hope she can recover well and still produce alot even though I have chopped half the plant away. 👊 for the other queens I have set the ec at around 1.4 very high on the pk so I will allow them to take that up and then start flushing in 2 to 3 weeks :)
Hi guys so this week for the girls is been a normal one shes just packing on the pounds ready for the finish :) Will let her finish her 6 week pk increase then begin the flush on all of these on week 9 trichs are where i want them a spash of amber but only on the heads so one more week she should be mostly milky then flush and we should finish for week number 9 :) keep it green people :) Update 2 of the queens are on flush harvest on 15th of this month.
I flipped them way to early but still to grow them was a pleasure grew very well and flowered fast :) cant wait to try her purple buds galore :) Well sorry i forgot to update this. She was a very nice strain to smoke lemon through and through :)
Awesome pheno thanks again to james for sending the seeds out we have more rqs genetics being grow outdoors this year and in the tent hold tight people :) weights are just guessing until its dry :)
The pheno I got grew with a nice purple/pink color. The color seems less dramatic after drying and curing, but it's super frosty skunk goodness! Happy growing! Enjoy!
@TheUk420Show, At this point, I just want to learn as much as I can and keep shooting for the stars. I keep an eye out for opportunity and do my best to only hold on to positive thoughts. I am sure that things will fall into place for us both!
@FoTwenny, Yeah You also have to prioritise your life as well though yeah its great helping people but its having the time isn't it. I bet you would love nothing more than to set up your own warehouse somewhere and build a medical cannabis empire and helping the world. Plus if anybody could do it your only one business plan away from presenting that to a bank and the way the market is for Medicinal cannabis which is growing exponentially any bank would be stupid to turn down a slice of that pie. I'm not gunna lie and say I understand the licencing in your country. I don't but it seems that you have the knowledge and the experience to make a huge amount of money and help an unlimited amount of people. I have friends that would purchase the license to grow it legally even where I am from. What I lack is the land away from the general public which is what you need. IE a field in the middle of fields lol. If you have a bank backing you then you can pretty much build any system your heart desires :)
@StunFlower, Me too my friend Oh so your in the cool country I'm jealous :P Since when did Commonwealth mean we cant have legal weed hehe Thanks man wish you all the best for all your ladies too :)
@TheUk420Show, I'm doing well, buddy. Hanging in. Getting cooler here in Canada as well but we've had a pretty nice fall I must say. I wish we could skip winter and head right into spring though 😉 Good luck with all of your projects! You've got lots to keep you busy. Look forward to seeing what colours your other strains put out. ✌️
@StunFlower, Hey Stun How's things :) Thank you My dwc friend :) I know right I have never had colour from bud this early on it really surprised me. I'm used to colour changing in the winter months but that's more of a very dark purple rather than how bright this is. Looks amazing I can see why people can get really into hemp photography when you can get some really interesting phenos :) I have so many colourful strains going at the moment so I hope this is just the first of many :) One of my outdoor plants came down a few days ago this went really dark purple due to the dramatic temp change for autumn the uk has and first frost is pretty unpredictable. I will put some photos up soon its just drying obviously :) Nice to hear from you bro and cheers for commenting. Keep it Green my friend :) 👊
IF THIS WOULD BE MY GROW.......................and its NOT a suggestion of any kind...............just another stoned guy trying to think................... i would put my air supply pump outside the tent and cover my hydroton with some black plastic bag.........................
1. it would prevent light going inside the bucket
2. it would prevent very moist air going up and eventually damage your plant
i would also clean ALL the NUTS RESIDUE from the from the top of the lid
now im gonna have another spliff and wonder somewhere else
@grzesiekkuzniak, Ahh clay pebbles. Yeah I have thought abbout covering them maybe I shall dig something out im not seeing anyy alge in my water so i dont think its a huge problem.
@grzesiekkuzniak, Thanks for the input an i do want to stop that issure the pump is in the tent becasue the fresh air intakes are in the tents I thought to get most oxygen it would make sense to have the pumps in direct contact with fresh air rather than room air. What's a hydroton ? The buckets or the baskets ? I will be cleaning the lids when I replace the water next week. I know the reason its happening because the pumps are verry powerful and turn the top half of the buckets into a kind of aeroponics i think the residue on the top is down to the spray orr mist getting above the baskets it does not happen in the flower tent strangely. Im blazing through some star dawg about too cook my dinner life is good :)
The smaller size of those two plants will be partly due to a slower start and also less developed roots. There is always some variation in early development. But I'm sure you are underfeeding not overfeeding. Leaves on overfed plants have burnt looking edges. I would start those Hydrocrop nutes earlier... EC of 0.6 in week 3 and increase to EC 1.0 by week 5.
@TheUk420Show, You can also foliar feed the Hydrocrop nutrients. May be worth trying on the smaller plants to help them along. Take 1 litre of RO or deinoised water, adjust to pH 5.5 (foliar feed should be slightly more acidic than root feed), then add 2ml of stock solution A and the same of stock solution B. Fine mist spray so the leaves are wet but not dripping. Should be done at lights out when the leaf stomates are open. This is also a good way to get very young plants off to a good start, while their roots are developing.
@@amon_grows, Cheers man most is drying atm but 2 plants are still flushing to be cropped on thursday i have trained my veg plants or started to so they will go in soon :) things rolling along nicely hope things are good with you :) 👊
@TheSyndicate, Cheers man :) I will do only 3 or so more weeks and well look at pulling these lovley ladies cant wait to smoke some proper purple bud :) 👊
They looking great 😍 great job so far 👌 i wish i could have 20c in my tent , u will definitely have some colors in those flowers !
Im starting a diary for the Rqs cup with PurpleQueen 💜 I’ll be checking u diary for sure 👍 Good luck 😉
@NatureBoyNeo, Nice best of luck for your run pal and thanks for the nice comments I'm sure yours will do just as well :) Keep it green my friend and happy growing :)
After checking out your diaries, i TOTALLY understand why its so hard for you to wrap your mind around an autoflower yielding a pound. Keep doing what your doing BUDDY, your doing good 👍 👏 👌 🙌 😀 👍 ♂️
@Canna96, Oh wow you come up with that sentence all by yourself it has quite a few words that bachelor's was worth it after all. You seem to say that alot. I mean it literally hilarious your criticizing my yields yet all mine are accurate and not lies so you know what are you actually saying here lol you cant yield either you can only lie about it :) Oh when did I say I "set the bar" for cannabis cultivation or is that just another lie ? cause I have never said that pretty sure you need some mental help pal that Imaginary PTSD must be taking its toll :) I would not feel comfortable with a person as mature as you defending my country which is why I'm glad I live in England :) I have massive harvests compared you ones that are complete bullshit hahaha keep crying pal and as I say better luck next time at not getting caught trying to cheat in a contest 👊
@TheUk420Show, you are correct, my bachelor's degree is not from Harvard. I joined the military to serve and protect freedom in my country. I don't need any tissues, but thank you. Keep pulling those massive harvests I can't wait to follow along and learn from you bro!!!
