Hamme Hydro's OG Phototopic

And my other grows somewhere else in my secret garden. Twelve Amnesia Haze cuts in the grow room and seventeen Super Skunk and some other cuts in the grow tent.

Gotta spread your chances i’ve been taught back in grow camp when i was still a baby in diapers by the old school growers. Frankly they even taught me how to grow on them using my own feces. I gave me some of the best weed and the high felt like coming home!

Finally i can grow on the automatic pilot again! Luckily i gave up on the clay pebbles, like my man @ifish said: out of sight out of heart!

Howdy all you lazy growers! Wanna know why i prefer being lazy over working? So that leaves more work for you! Plus what you do not do you do not mess up! Plants know better how they must grow than i!

We have Amnesia the core cut on soil. And a lot of different cuts on rock-wool.

And a lot of different cuts on rock-wool.

We as hemp growers know that cuts are prone to attract pests and when the cuts are contaminated from the get go it becomes a pest before the grow is done. I’ve tried so many different things to get rid of them, mostly battling them in an early stage. But the downside of this is that the cuts are still weak and cannot take much. Plus they need a lot of time to recover and time is the friend of spider mites.


A few days after removing all the leafs.

Yes, i’ve discovered that time is the best friend of the lickle buggers because they need it to reproduce. After battling them for a decade, i came to the conclusion that it’s a losing game. The bastards been around longer than your momma’s momma’s momma! So now my new approach is pest control instead of cleansing the plants (which is too time consuming because it is too much to handle for young cuts). My latest approach is total defoliation right before 12/12. Because of this they stop growing for a few days and soon as the leafs start to come back on i switch the clock. So you defoliate a day before switching, but than wait a few days because of the shock from defoliation.

Or you could grow from seed, but hermaphrodites cannot be controlled. And is that a risk you want to take? I sure a hell don’t cuts for the win and time is money.

Meanwhile on another location my Super Skunk cuts grow is coming to an end. Note how minimal the infection is, just a few lost thrips here and there, nothing to worry about. All i did was apply defoliation in the early stages pre flowering. Even in early flowering it is good to treat pests i think, long as the buggers aren’t on the flowers, defoliation is a huge blow to them.

Not trying to be a smart ass, just wanting to show the benefits of cuts. Week 7 of flowering. Here we go.

And my Amnesia Core cut grow are in the fourteenth day of flowering. The cuts were heavily infected with pests but now they are almost clean because of the defoliation i applied.

And the cuts on rock-wool had the leafs covered with pests, so i removed those leafs and treated the remnants with pyrethrum. They are recovering as we speak!

I topped Ammie, hopefully for the last time!

Should’ve switched a fraction earlier.

Cheers!

The cuts on rock-wool recovered nicely from defoliation and in a few days i will switch. The strains are SSK, S.O.G. and Don King (which is a clone only for a few handpicked happy growers) that is an offspring of Jack Herer so i’ve heard. Can’t say i am a happy type, but happy enough for Don King! If these cuts were Amnesia, i’d be a week late at least with switching. Yes, the Amnesia Core cut is the only strain i grew, that acts under led as if it were hps. All other strains i have grown, both from seed and clones (almost stop growing when you switch…bzzz.krrrt…prrr)

See that? No need for seed brothers! Not hating just stating and if you think i am i do not give two fucks and lay off the the damn stocks for crying out loud!

Bye bye, kisses and hugs from Government Occupied Territory.

Good afternoon friends of the cream of the crops.

Its been a while. The cuts are in the 2nd week of 12/12 and since today the cobs are set to a totall of almost 800 watts. The lights are 50 to 60 cm from the crop, because of the strong radiation of the cobs. The armature consists of 9 bulbs only, causing them to be very hot comparable to hps bulbs.


This is where the water gets pumped in once a day for 15 minutes. The barrel is too small to over flood the bin, so flooding automatic is completely save.
