Explorer's extended expeditions

I wouldn’t be able to fit that thing in my drobe I don’t think I’d have to get on that could be hosed up I reckon. But I also do not have a “5 mate I’ve got an old 8” big boy RVK sounds like it could take off on startup :rofl: an a 4” TT fan tbh they’re old ones I’ve left in the noisy past.

I would suggest though for a cheap quiet fan getting the one I’m running now they’re pretty quiet on first setting second setting they get sort of loud. They’re grand for the price honestly and I hate loud fan I also didn’t buy mine off eBay got mine from local hydro shop :blush:

I’m not arssed about the noise mate. Running rvks at the minute but not doing a good enough job. As I’m pushing air instead of pulling I need something a little more powerful than what I’m using :+1:

Ya can have my 8” if ya want bro but you’d have to get one them £40 controller jobbies for it because the power is too much for one the smaller controllers I blew both of mine trying it so I know :rofl: but if you’re not arsed on sound mate can’t go wrong this 5” RAM I’m using does fairly well for 40 quid. Even the hydro labs 6” I use for the bigger jobs is fairly good but it’s still loud as fuck and they’re quite pricey.

So I took some cuts off of the chemdawg the other day and 3/4 have rooted so far tbh forgot when they got put in there so dunno how long they took :man_shrugging:t2: Sprayed down with my organic shit again today found a couple adults by checking now they’re dead so just gunna keep an eye out now try make sure they don’t start getting a hold on me bit up in the air over some lethal chemicals to wipe em out but I’ve got some nice buds going don’t really wanna spray that shit on em.

Once I’ve sorted the other cuts they’ll all be happy in the cupboard gunna see where we get with the mites but I plan on keeping 1 of each strain just not sure which ones I wanna save at moment.

Sorry to hear about the recent invasion. I’m sure you’ll get things under control.

All my houseplants I take home get taken out of their pots and literally thrown in a bucket of soapy water.

Of course wouldn’t be a problem if source actually cared about not making his problems someone else’s problem but wcyd

Plants look great you’re gonna have a nice canopy there!

Yehhh kinda regret doing the scrog over them now as I could’ve gave them cold showers in my bathtub that usually keeps them at bay but I think I’ve caught it early enough to potentially nip it in the bud :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: pardon the pun but I’ve only found signs of them in the corner that meets my veg cupboard which is where it all began so I’m praying they fark off :pray:t2:

Got the LR x UV pollen off the foil into the container. Just gotta decide where I’m dabbing it :blush: ain’t it mad to think this tiny bit of dust will prolly make 20+ seeds.

Mine made around 1000 seeds :rofl:

Oh don’t worry to mans got more pollen. This little slice of heaven came from the foil I caught the pollen on to put into the bag :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: I froze a few different ones as I’ve seen people talk about doing small batches so then you’d be able to use the pollen multiple times.

I will use the other bit of pollen on the FAM mix when I run em. Just seems fitting to cross reikos stuff to reikos stuff. Sharing the love. This bit of “selective pollination” I’m doing is just for my own enjoyment making seeds man :blush:

So the good(ish) news is that I think. THINK the mites are done. But I’ll still keep an eye out for any leaf damage and try splat as many as I can. Unfortunately that doesn’t kill the eggs but can’t have my cake an eat it.

The good news is I got my selective pollination done.

Used up half the pollen on 2 buds, one bud on the Girl Scout Crack. One bud on the Washing Machine. I was going to try pollinate the stardawg too but I didn’t wanna risk spilling pollen on any of the top buds.

Also got this shit today for my veg cab. Think if the infestation in the main cab gets too bad I’ll have to spray some leaves in there but for now I’ve got things where I want them :crossed_fingers:t2:

For now :blush:

Figured it would be cool to post the canopy so you people get to see what’s goin on behind the front line :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

So have ended up not rigging my 6” desk fan thing up yet I need to DIY myself a hanger for it as the current build is too big for it to fit :man_facepalming:t2: But anyway my damp traps seem to be doing the trick steady in the 50’s in the canopy have just rested them on top of my carbon filter. Need replenishing but in a span of 4 days I think they’re doing ok for what they are.

Will be giving all of the ladies a little taste of PK in their next feed, they’re stacking along nicely I’m quite happy with where we’re at for roughly 2 weeks in :muscle:

Feed levels now are 3.5ml of A, 3.5ml B, 2.5ml boost and 2.5ml cannazym. Stopped rhizotonic last week :+1:t2:

The veg cab is doing pretty nicely now too had no signs of mites since I caught onto the infestation. Haven’t had to use my Dr.Schimell shit yet but will still be spraying them further down the line to make sure they’re mite free. Also fucked up on PH other day hence why some top growth is yellowing :man_facepalming:t2:

Order-> Chemdawg () Girl Scout Crack () Washing Machine

Haha she’s not far off bro that’s the chemdawg I got off @anon58740919 and tbh with the light design those reflectors don’t even get hit they’re cool as fugg :sunglasses::rofl: you’re right though they’ve proper kicked off now my drobe smells deliciously dank :drooling_face:

So question time! I’ve noticed I’ve got some issues going on. Help me diagnose I’ll give ya what I reckon. Feel free to correct me if you think something else is the cause :+1:t2:

All are being fed the same water with the same feed levels etc. Just over 2 weeks of flower.

Subject 1- Stardawg: has a few larger fan leaves turning that funky pale yellow with the reddy/purple patches. My guess is mag shortage, though could be some potassium def too, thoughts?

Subject 2- Girl Scout Crack: been pretty smooth sailing with these ladies so with me not airing my water lately I’m thinking this is just chlorine burn :man_shrugging:t2:

Subject 3- Washing Machine: most finnecky plant
I think I’ve ever grown constantly looks yellow and pale and shit hate this strain well aware of the nitrogen clawing been ignoring that because like I say it’s a finnecky bitch but against got a little burn on there. Thinking chlorine. Who knows this one always looks sick.

It’s mag deficiency mate. Check the PH and if it’s in range throw a little Epsom in the mix :+1::v:

Yeh gunna test my run off on my next feed see what EC and PH is but I’m gunna air my water more will have to actually buy the food grade Epsom never bought it before just stuck it in me basket :man_facepalming:t2: Cheers tho mate you’re prolly bang on just never seen a plant turn so yellow so quickly kind of concerning.

Ya think it’s mag for all of em yeh?
