I’ve got a few projects going right now, and I need a spot to keep things organized.
I’ve had a few people ask me to detail my hydro setup and methods, so I’ll go over that here, as well. My entire motto for growing is K.I.S.S (keep it stupid simple). I aim to have as little hands on time as possible, and I’ve got some work to do still with my design, in order to make that happen, but so far it ain’t broke, so I’m not fixing it…so to speak Res change is today, so I’ll get that all done after lights on, and updated a little later after when I have time. For those not familiar with my setup and methods, things will become clearer later. I don’t do things like most people, even though it’s “just DWC”
First up is Mayberry S1 (death star x whitaker blues) X (death star x whitaker blues) by @Blue_Star_Seed_Co
Day 27 so far, still finishing
#1 is very fruity blueberry, and just absolutely massive. She’s feeding at around 80mL a week, divided into two separate feeds. 50mL Sunday and another 30mL with the res top-off on Wednesday. Yes, she drinks that much water. My 10 gallon reservoir would be completely dry by Friday if I didn’t top it off.
#2 is a lighter feeder, at around 50mL a week. 30mL Sunday, 20 mL with the Wednesday top off. She drinks around half as much water, as well. This one is FUNK CITY!!! She smells like a cross between old gym socks and bad breath, with a fruity backend. Her funk is far more pronounced when you cut a stem or leaf, though, than a rubbed leaf or pinched bud. She also has extremely sensitive roots. Over feeding or excessive turbulence in her reservoir water will kill her roots lightning fast!!! She’s a pleasure to have, but a frustrating pheno to work with, for sure. She may be a better candidate for soil setups for this reason.
I should note…these both do have some faint blueberry smells coming through. @Josh_Blue promised me they would, and he delivered!! I’ve got a long way to go before harvest, but so far so good!!
Next is Cherry Wine F2 (F2 by Heart and Soil)
Also day 27 so far
#1 Has a triple branch structure. My intension is to do some.ratios with Cherry Wine, since she has a super high THC/CBD content at around 10%:10% and the cherry cough drop terps are unreal. I’m starting on a pheno hunt, and these are the first two I popped. So #1 will stay and get a reveg for stress testing. I have a fat pack to go through, so no huge loss if she’s not a keeper.
