Red Rock's Place

This is my new journal for my grow. You can see my old journal here: RedRock's Purple Dogbud Grow

Anything you see here is up for trade. Click on my username to see what cuts I’m looking for. I’m working on building a seed collection for my next phase of growing, so I’m almost more interested in seeds than cuts now.

I’ve upgraded to a 2x4 flower tent, and I’ll be growing perpetual, so things don’t really fit in my old journal anymore. My plan is to run 3 plants in the flower tent, putting in a new one every ~4 weeks. I’m also considering running a long flowering sativa in one spot. Anyone have any good suggestions? Cuts? Seeds?

The light is a 320 W cob rig.

My veg space Is 2x4 as well, but much less headroom. About 2.5 feet tall. I’m going to do something about that soon. It’s lit by a 185W strip LED rig.

I’m growing in re-amended, organic living soil. They get some combination of SST, Coconut Water, Aloe, Kelp juice, Silica, Fulvic Acid, Cannabis FPJ, FFJ, and LABS. I’m adding comfrey and stinging nettle to that mix soon. I foliar a few times a week with some combination of those things, and maybe a few more times with plain water in between. They get a soil drench with some of that stuff a few times a week as well, with plain water in between. I top dress every two weeks from late veg, into flower. In veg, it’s usually a mix of crab meal, neem, kelp, alfalfa, high N bat guano, fish bone meal, Malted barley powder, a sprinkle of langbeinite. In flower i switch to, fish bone meal, crab meal, neem, langbeinite, Malted Barley Powder, High N bat guano, High P Seabird Guano.

Currently in the flower tent are my selection of Purple Dogbud, and an SFG OG. The PDB is in week 6 of flower. The SFV just went in today.

In veg, I’ve got a Triangle Kush getting ready to be next in the flower tent. Also have an SFV mom, a Old Family Purple F2 mom, and my PDB mom.

Very nice bud.

G-paS · April 16, 2022, 3:50am

Looking good in the tent.

Nice work my friend!!

Rogue · April 16, 2022, 4:01am

You’re throwing just about everything at it.
But where’s the kitchenscraps though?

The Pope of Dope approves!

May everything thrive as fuck.

RedRock · April 16, 2022, 4:00am

Haha, I’m trying to see if the difference its worth it. Anything worth doing is worth over-doing, right?

Thanks for the compliments everyone!

Rogue · April 16, 2022, 4:01am

You’re onto something there!

PineScented · April 16, 2022, 5:45am

Cool idea! Hope everything goes to plan

@RedRock I am here to witness another grow (SFV OG) from you yet PDB is starting its 6th week in flower with your 1st grow.

And we will see another plant (or 2- “never say never”) Triangle Kush in a few weeks.

Do I see a perpetual grow thread in the works?

You are killing it in organic living soil my friend.

RedRock · April 17, 2022, 4:19pm

Well, here’s the Sunday update:

The SFV looks like she’s getting ready to explode.

RedRock · April 17, 2022, 4:35pm

Here’s a better look into the veg room:

The TK. She’s been showing crazy verrigation. I’m not sure she was a fan of the LST.

The SFV after a serious haircut.

The PDB bonsai mom

My Old Family Purple F2 mom. Haven’t tested this one yet. She sure is fussy though.

Emeraldgreen · April 17, 2022, 5:22pm

Looking great I’ll be following along

Islayhearts · April 17, 2022, 5:52pm

Definitely looks like the plants are liking what you are doing.

Got some crosses in trying to spread if you’re looking for something new to grow.

I applaud the true organic approach, I am a lazy organic person which is really frowned upon.

RedRock · April 17, 2022, 6:13pm

Thanks y’all!

Nothing wrong with the lazy approach, @Islayhearts. I bet it still turns out killer, with way less work. I sent you a DM too.

Nice work !!

BigMike55 · April 18, 2022, 1:02am

Nice growing!

Well, it’s Sunday once again. The PDB is in week 7 since the flip, the SFV is going into week 2. The whole garden got a nice dose of compost tea from the grow shop’s vortex. Everyone really seemed to like that. The herd should be booming.

SFV is really starting to stretch. Planning on staking her down for the rest of this week, then I’ll let her do her thing. Hopefully she’ll stretch enough to fill the space. Each bin is about a third of the total footprint, so she doesn’t have too far to go. She’s been getting MBP, FFJ, FPJ, LABS, Coconut Water, Kelp juice, Aloe, folic acid. About every other watering with foliars a few times a week. Plain water foliars in between.

The PDB is really starting to stink now. Full on skunk when I open the tent. She’s been getting FFJ, FPJ, LABS, Coconut water, and aloe. She gets that about every other watering.

The TK is starting to grow a lot faster. Still has lots of verrigation. Looking happier overall.
She’s been getting: FPJ, Kelp, Aloe, Coconut water, fulvic, LABS, corn SST.

I recently picked up some dried comfrey and stinging nettle. The vegging plants got a top dress with that and some other stuff. Gonna make some FPJs out of these soon.

Got a lot of new stuff coming in. Trying to decide what to run next. Gonna need to start something soon.

RedRock · May 1, 2022, 2:34pm

Sunday again,already?

There’s been some changes this week.
I pulled out the stakes on the SFV. She’s got plenty of branches now, so it’s time for her to get some vertical growth. There’s still an unfilled corner of the bin, so I threw in a Sunset Sherbet I got from a buddy recently. Planning on taking the SFV to 11 weeks, so they should finish at the same time. I guess ol @Maddawg was right about the two more plants, lol.
I took down the SFV mom, now that I’ve got a few new ones starting.

The Purple Dogbud has really started showing the purp over the past week. Starting to see the oldest fan leaves yellow. I don’t think there’s any stopping the fade now.

The Triangle has been moved to her final home in the 12gal bin. She seems to be enjoying to root room. I took cuts off the side that’s growing over the edge of the bin, in hopes of evening things out. I tried to get her more centered during the transplant, but I guess I didn’t do enough.

I’ve got the Tahoe in a solo cup right now, getting her ready to go in the tent shortly after the TK.

I’m thinking I’m gonna try to get on a cycle where I’m harvesting the whole tent around the same time. A plant every ~4weeks sounded cool, but there’s really no extra benefit for me that way.

Now things are really starting to come together!

The purple Dogbud is fading nicely with a touch under two weeks to go. Hopefully with my improved soil mix, I can keep the fade at bay for another week with the SFV.

The SFV is going into week 4, and frosting up real good already. I gave her an herbal top dress on Friday. Between that, maybe a few guano top dresses, and transplanting later, I think I can keep her green and happy for a little longer. I accidentally murdered the little sunset sherbet that she was sharing the bin with, so I decided to do the solo cup challenge with a healthier clone of the same.

The TK is growing nicely. Shouldn’t be too long before I have total coverage. I’ll probably thin her out a bit before I throw her into flower. She’s gonna be quite the bush.

I’ve got some other stuff starting in 1 and 2 gallon pots now. I’ve got the Piff Coast Haze #3, and the Sunset Sherbet in 2 gals, and the Tahoe and Mendo Breath in 1 gals. As cool as running all the OGs back to back sounds, variety is the spice of life. Planning on throwing the SS into the flower tent a week or two after the TK. The PCH will go in after the SFV comes down. The Tahoe and Mendo will replace the SS and TK.
