Flower tent is full of veggies, but I couldn’t resist popping a few Mephistos. Double Grape & 3 Bears OG on Megacrop in coco. Just transplanted from solo cups.
These greens will eventually go in bigger containers outside. Starting to pull a salad or two from them already. Forgot to water the tomatoes they’re not looking too hot, going to re-start with fresh seeds just in from OSC and Richters. No more starter cells for me, good for culling runts but they dry out too fast.
They are in Promix HP and mushroom compost, castings, amended with Gaia Green 4-4-4. Wasn’t planning to use this mix for veggies originally. Smaller pots have eaten most of their amendments, so they’re getting some Muskie fish fertilizer now and then. Love that stuff for veg in soil.
Timewarp from Next Generation. Was going to run them outside, but I don’t have room for trees. Autos outside, then these inside after veggies clear out.
Definitely pulling up a chair for this one never ran it but I love the look of c99, its on my list of strains to try/grow. Looks like your already off to a good start.
I usually split my stems when I clone. Routine is cut at angle below node, lightly scrape off skin around cut maybe 1/4 to 1/2 in long and then split in half up the stripped area before dipping in clonex and either into cups up into dome with either rapid rooters or as of lately cut im out of them using soil. Typically roots in about 7 to 12 days roughly.
Spent a couple hours repotting tonight now I’m out of containers. Need to eat more yogurt I guess… haha. It was a nice distraction from reality.
@Deadinside88 I’ll try the skin scraping next time too. I really like doing a peat pod in a solo cup with an elastic band & sandwich bag on top for just 1 or 2 cuts. Set & forget, no misting or anything. Might be even better with soil in a clear cup.
@DiggySoze thin fingered plants are what’s left of the Female Seeds C99 bonsai. They are definitely starting to flower and crystallize under 24/0 in the tiny pots, hoping they’ll revert to veg after a transplant. If they don’t I’ll be enjoying a sweet 1 gram fluoro harvest !
I put some Kale, Chard and Garlic outside to test the weather. Squirrels dug up the garlic, but the others seem to be holding up so far.
Tent was an overgrown jungle for the last 3 grows, it’s nice to have some breathing room this time.
Probably will do Mephisto’s Fugue State & Super Orange Haze outside this year. Pop them outside in the next weekend or two in 3 gallons Promix/Gaia Green.
Thinking about making some seeds after Double Grape & 3BOG clear out. The newly acquired JOTI Lemon Skunk seems like it would cross nicely with the C99 and Timewarps in the veg tent.
Decided to rebuild my old strip light for a bit more power in the veg tent.
The light previously had 4 Samsung LT-F564B strips on a HLG-240H-48B driver. These 2’ strips are very densely packed with diodes and were placed side by side to fit in the 2x4 tent without touching the walls. There was a big hot spot right under the middle of the light that could easily (light) burn the leaves. The LEDs were flickering after 2 years of use, so I retired it. Suspect the driver went bad.
Rebuilt it with only 2 strips and a new HLG-120H-C1400B. LED Gardener 2x2 build. Seems like a good fit for the 36"x20" veg tent and it can run a lot higher up. More space to work with than the T5s. My janky light meter shows even coverage across the floor of the tent.
I was pretty high the other night and on a roll after planting a ton of veggies and flowers. So I decided to pop most of the collection, 1 each of…

@beacher Thanks! Yeah Megacrop all the way is the plan for this one, it was good on my last auto run.
Still doing 2.5ml calmag & 5g / gal Megacrop, might bump up the MC a bit and drop Calmag or go 1/4 strength. Burnt the tips after switching from GO Calmag to GH Calimagic. GO stuff was making bad smells, foam & more PH instability.
Double Grape is frosting up nicely, 3BOG making a lot of golf balls. 3BOG drooping seems to happen in the evenings regardless of watering, saw it on some other journals too. Standard dank musky weed smell for both.
Usually I get good enough germ rates direct sowing. This time I ran out of seed starter mix and used the muddy Promix Veg & Herb that was on hand. About 1/2 didn’t make it.
Restarted 1/2 of them with 100% germ in paper towel, going to do this from now on I think.
Cool I’m on a similar mix, 5g megacrop, 2ml calimagic and 2gr Epsom salt per gallon and it’s been working really well. That double grape looks incredible
Transplanted the clusterfuck from solo cups to 2 gallon fabric pots of Promix HP. Amended with 4 tbs/gal Gaia Green 50/50 All Purpose 4-4-4 and Power Bloom 2-8-4. Will give some weak fish emulsion as well.
