Tomorrow is a relative term round here.

Just tasted my Botanicare Coir.
Tastes dry and bland, not at all salty.
Runoff was 150ppm.
124ppm, going in.
Then I read the fine print. Says it's "Flushed of excess Sodium"

Aloha,
W.

Mine only said 100% organic.
Salt is organic.
I just re-read the entire label (which is in 4 languages, I only read the english version)

In amongs the small print is says:

Causion:
This product may be manufactured in a peanut processing plant.
Do not ingest or breatth it's dust. Keep away from children and pets.

What the heck kind of coco did I buy?
There's only a quarter bag left so next bag will probably be Botanicare.

Not gonna sweat it because now eveything is beyond that point now. I love coco in DWC. Thanks for the shove to the darkside.

Thanks for checking it out for me!

I'm also determined to keep well enough to build and grow an aero/fog rig next time.
Gotta have goals, and something to look forwards to.
Thanks again for stopping in, Bro...
BTW all topics are open in this thread.
;^)

M.P.

Ok i need comfort im 6'4 280 not a big belly but more like a lineman kinda look exercise is not to much but i drink alot of liquids and i was clear for 40 days then i smoked on a Friday 9/25 then on the next Friday 10/2 and its been 12 days since i smoked took a urine test today and drank a gallon of Gatorade 2 hours before mixed with vitamin B. How do you think my chances are whats my % of passing?? had a big dinner night before. I Am 18

gcMan800, I don't mind you asking questions like that here, but I don't think I can help you as I don't have any experience in trying to pass a test. I'm a retired farmer so I never took a drug test in my life. Most were still legal when I was still young.
I'm also a legal MJ patient.
I wish you good luck, though...

Well sort of...

The Kandy Kush is blooming like crazy.
The top six inches is now one bud and it already is sugar coated(not supposed to start heavy production for another 2 1/2 weeks). It's so sticky that any cat hair entering my grow area is sticking to the flowers and bracts. I'm gonna have to filter the air going in I think.

Blueberry is coming along fine and G13xhaze is just beginning to flower in ernest.

Laughing Buddha is laughing at me by continuing to veg at 24 days @12/12 hrs.

(LOL)

M.P.

Would love to see a few pics of your Laughing Buddha plant. I've got one I've been keeping alive for years despite inability to grow it well LOL

I'm also considering moving to Coco instead of acidic peat-based potting soils that seem to need a different amount of lime for every bag :/ Looks like you can treat the coco as soil, just ensure that your pH is in the hydro range?

FatSean,

They're in 5 gal DWC buckets right now so I have to wait for Saturday to get enough time to get some clear pictures of the LB.

I sorta treat coco like soil.

In soil you have to let the medium dry in order to get some disolved gasses to the roots. In coco every time you water it carries the gases to the roots so you don't have to wait for the medium to dry before rewatering, given a well developed root system. In fact by not waiting until the coco dries out one avoids the ph swings that nutrient enriched mediums can go through.

This is my present system:

I germ, then transplant into a 3 1/2" pot. When the roots start to form around the sides of the pot I transplant intoa 6" pot. When the roots start to form around the side of the 6" pot I pot it into a 6" net basket witha 5" air stone disk in a 5 gal. DWC bucket environment until the end.

While in coco post minus the DWC I water at least once a day (twice a day the week before DWC) stopping when the runnoff starts to exit the pots.
Leave it sit in the runnoff for about 15-20 minutes, then drain off the funnoff.

I supplied nutients with the water every day except for "flushing" Friday (to avoid salt buildups). My water was measured for Ph and EC.
M.P.

looking good M.P.! can't believe i have posted in here before. i know i've read at least the first half of this thread before.

nice selection of genetics too! the kandy kush is on my to-do list. can't wait to see how all the ladies finish up!

i got a new probe from hanna. shipped it UPS and everything. the only thing they didn't include was a sasche of calibration liquid. no biggie though, i had some left from what you sent. (thanks again!)

good growing (and karma!)!

Shake, my man...
Forget Kandy Kush.
I see some Rez Chemdog IX-III IBL in your future, bro.

Don't throw away any males

Killer gear looks interesting, as do Wally Duck and Doggies Nutz.
I so wish I was younger so I could have enough time to grow them all.

M.P.

double post. my bad.

you can read the future?! lol.

i have since moved so if you happen to know anything about my future just don't send it to the old addy!

what's the complete name of that Rez Chemdog IX-III IBL? just curious.

i would love to have some of those males on hand.

you know the email. and i also have a little side project that you might be interested in. hit me up!!!

i'll look into those breeders you listed.

Shake,
You must know little about the band of Merry Pranksters.
I don't read the future, I see it and then it becomes real! (LOL)
I do realize that you moved (Doh) and previous addy would be dead.
My son still lives at sendng addy, but is not a MMJ user, etc...
LEO would be quite disappointed visiting there (LOL)

The complete name is as stated: Resevoir Seeds Chemdog IX-III
It is double backcrossed to assure stability at this point.

Kandy Kush would be a crossof Chemdog (actually OG Kush) and Arcata Trainwreck. Crosses are all that have been available by seed up to now. Chemdog IX-III has been painstakenly selected and backcrossed to reserve and produce a stable hybrid which expresses the true traits of Chemdawg 99.

Of course everyone knows that Chemdawg is the mother of OG Kush, Sour Diesel, etc...

It's very limited production until Chemdog 4 gets released next month.

Will email you, etc.... I still have KK if you actually prefer it...

Looking forward to expanded horizons made avilable by you, too.

M.P.

thanks for all the info on the band of Merry Pranksters! i should have known better.

i most certainly have heard of the Chemdog and knew a little bit about it's history. wasn't aware that only crosses were available.

i don't mean to sound like an idiot here, but are you the one responsible for all the work that's going into this?

again, please forgive my ignorance.

i think i would be a fool to get the KK as opposed to the 'Dog. right?!

i will send a discrete email your way. for discretness' sake, i'm gonna substitute coin(s) for seed(s). cool? i won't send one until i get a response.

look forward to hearing from you. by the way, the meter is working like a champ! too bad i found out my water sucks. the pH isn't so bad (~8.18) but my PPM are like at 545. wtf? so i am gonna have to figure out something about my water. yea.

Aww, shucks Headshake!
Rez has been a commercial breeder since the 80's, certainly ain't me.
But I do have a few friend that got me these straight from Rez. If you go to ICmag, he has a section in the vendor forums. AAA Reservoir Seeds. You can read up on the strain development there if you wish.

Wait'n for your email...

I also flipped the other Kandy Kush that had been damaged during transplanting. This will be Day 1 for her.

More picturs to follow tomorrow.

Mighty fine!

Truly, that Kandy Kush pic belongs in a magazine, or a frame. Beautiful shot, beautiful pot. Well done.

Golly fellows, you're making me blush.
Thanks for the compliments.
I'm hoping it continues as smoothly as it gone so far.
Damn Laughing Buddha (LOL)

Many thanks for encouraging me to move to coco/DWC.

Aloha MP

Had a random thought.

Next time you experience puberty postponed like L.B..

Throw a 60W., clear, incandescent bulb at her for a half hour before bedtime and leave it on for a half hour after lights - out.

(Unless you happen to have a better 730nm. deep red source at hand.)

Don't "know" that it will work, but the science seems to indicate that it will help with bloom triggering.


Really nice work there, brah.
You "like the challenge" 'cause you're up to it.

Keep on keepin' on.
Weeze

Weeze,
Thanks for the thoughts about late bloomers. I'll be think'n about that for the Haze x Skunk run as it has a very high ratio Sativa genes and have the reputation of long flowering (12 weeks). I think that's whats going on with the Laughing Buddha, but who's to know, eh?

Thanks for the compliments. I truly love what I do.

Shake,
Thanks, and I havn't forgotten you, bro.
Hope you have tall ceilings !

Later all,
M.P.

Sorry I haven't been around but I had the flu for the last week.

DWC is sure great, the went on and did their thing without intervention. G13xHaze(2nd week floweing) is now 31" and taller than the BlueberryxHash Plant (30" aprox 20 days before harvest). Kandy Kush is fattening up nicely and Laughing Buddha is down to 5 fingers fan leaves and starting to look like it will actually flower.

I'll try to get some pictures in after I rearrange the grow area.

M.P.

Gonna keep this simple as I already gave negative rep to someone I intended to + rep. I must be stuck on stupid.

That Kandy Kush looks amazing. Can I get your permission to use that picture in an article I'm writing for Rhino Seeds?

Wow,
