Smkn is Back and Rarin' To Grow

@Gpaw hey bro great to see ya…Thanks loving being mobbed by so many lovely ladies :slightly_smiling_face:and they dont squawk or whine lol…Them 2 auto fem N.L seeds you gave me are mighty fine too and they seem to be loving the dollarama fabric bags.

Ripped for having her taproot ripped in half as a seedling i am really impressed the way she bounced back.Removed the 2 big fan/solar leaves at the top node to open up the inner nodes to more light and have all the other big leaves pulled down with paper clips

Ty-DoSpread this Lady has such vigour and loves to be tied and spread.Removed a 2nd set of fan/solar leaves to open her inner nodes to more light.She really filled in from the 1st set being removed and i expect her to fill even more now.She is starting to throw out pistils so i believe she is starting to flower.
Tydo after one set of fan leaves were removed 3days ago


Tydo after 2nd set of fan leaves removed tonight,She will really fill in now being opened up to more light.

For autos i am really liking the way they are performing so far.Cannot wait to see how they bud up.

Day 16 of 12/12

The closet is starting to look sexy ,gotta say i am impressed with them cheap toly LED lights.After harvest i will definitely be upgrading to a few Spyder Farm s4000 or a bridgelux system…

Some of the floral arrangements developing in the closet

The Tent Jungle is something else.Really need to pull some plants out to normal light for better pics.

Things are humming along.Friday night they will get a full strength feed of the promix organic ferts…Next feed will be the phytophlankton and beastie bloomz…The tent is fuller than i would normally run it.Just did not expect to get 33 females from 44 seeds.Being my first grow in years i will happily take them odds and deal with it the best i can…The joys of 11 different strains flowering together,when the tent gets open and you move plants its an endless boquet of aromas,from sandlewood and nutmeg,to berries and citrus to the smell of fuel and hash oh so hashy.I get lost in the field of scents and forget what i went in the tent to do at times :stuck_out_tongue:

DANG!! Your tent is amazing!

Nice large inter-nodal spacings! …You would almost suspect there was some sort of competition going on in there… :laughing: :+1:
Closet looks fantastic too.
You would be raking in the buck$ if you could figure out how to ‘can’ those scents. :star_struck: :nose:

Cheers

Just fed the closet girls their first dosage of phytophlankton and beastie bloomz tonight.A few of the closet girls coming out the closet at 18days 12/12








For vegging and flowering in 1 gal grow bags i am very happy with the rate of growth.Normally i would only run half the amount of plants and have them in 3 or 5gal pots…Gonna chill for a bit and catch my wind again then i will be in to feed all the tent ladies and pull a few out for pics.

do you use the other 2 fox farm additives or whatever they’re called? or just beastie blooms? i used those on my very first grow a ways back but never used them again. i’m thinking i should probably try them out again once i can finally get a grow going. i still use the fox farm nutes and ocean forest soil just because that’s what i always used.

I am only using the beastie bloomz and the phytophlankton wich has NPK and all micro nutrients…Up until now the were fed promix organic ferts and phytophlankton…if needed i will add a little of the promix fert in but as this is their first bloom feed i am trying just the beastie bloomz and phytophlankton and see what they do…I did notice on OH has a super dank hash smell, one chocolateRain smells like jersey milk dark chocolate and #5MWCB has a very tropical fruit punch aroma

Still not feeling 100% pulled a couple of plants out the tent and felt winded again.Did manage to get the girls fed and pruned a bit,but left most in the tent to do it.









There are a few plants i left some lower chutes and bud sites as i plan on revegging those plants after harvest.18 days into 12/12 and starting to form nicely.

Have a wonderful Saturday and an awesome weekend,be safe and well…

So Its a beautiful Saturday Morning here as i discovered when i went on my balcony to inspect my males.I have had them on the balcony the past 4 nights as there balls grow and swell.Testing which ones can take the cool nights and at perky at first light.Finding some excellent canditates that will hold up to the cool Canadian fall weather.






Just wanted to share a beautiful majestic sunrise of Saturday Morning Glory and wish everyone a safe and beautiful day…

Cheers

@Papalag Hey Bro nice to see you and thanks for stopping by… Males are SourDieselSnowLotus x GodSpaceNeedle,SourDieselSnowLotus x BlueComa, OregonHuckleBerry,HuckleBerryCrackers,Oger x ChocolateRain that can take the cold and perk right up at dawn…The MauwiWowieCherryBomb and the DBHP didnt like it to much,i will be using those 2 but have made note that those males are strictly for indoor use…The hearty males will be marked for outdoor seed making…Will also be using some of the pollen i get on some auto strains i am about to start to.

Hi bro I believe the beastie bloomz is an additive rather then a total fertilizer I’ve mixed this with jacks 20/20/20 ( all bases covered npk)
I believe the beastie is 0/50/30
So 1/2 teaspoon of 20/20/20 + 1/2 teaspoon 0/50/30 = 20//70/50 which should be 1/3/2 which give you all around npk I don’t remember the ppms but should be like 600 ish

Use during week 3 throu 5 after flip Keep ppms at around 600 to 800 during this stage it’s strong so check for burn on tips of leaves

Ripped has recovered and is responded well to having a set of fan leaves clipped to open her up.Node chutes are starting to grow nicely now along with being spread open.Liking the way these auto fem NorthernLights are performing so far.Especially Ripped for the way she bounced back from her taproot being ripped in half as a seedling.


Ty-DoSpread her sister is a little beast.This is one kinky lady that loves being tied down and spread open.As she has grown i have removed 2 sets of fan leaves.The second set was a day ago and she has exploded from it.She is putting out pistils and her chutes are turning into lovely branches.
First pic is her this morning one day after 2nd set of fan leaves where removed

And a progression of her being tied and spread open more.






I was able to get her open enough that the new biggest fan leaves could be tucked down under the node chutes below them.Really liking the lil Lady.Also impressed with how the 50cent doubled up fabric dollar store bag is working as a 5gal pot and the plants seem super happy in them.They have been under 18/6 light cycle since popping out the soil under a toly 1000w equivelant LED light.They have one had1/4 strength feed of phytophlankton and promix organic fert.

If you need a tester, I can probably finish your indoor stuff, outside here :wink:

Its a battle outside, but I’m going to mix up some jwa and just keep everything on a preventative schedule. Thanks for the idea @Tinytuttle. I’ll be able to spray all summer for dollars instead of hundreds. The spidermites are still after everything around here that’s still alive.

@Badger Be happy to share my different creations.Going to be doing photoperiod seed runs and crosses.4 Auto seed runs and auto crosses as well as crossing some of the photoperiod strains with the auto strains…Once i have the seeds all done i will post a list and you can pick which ones you want to try…Spidermites and all them weed eaters suck,its a constant battle.Nice you got a tip that will save you big bucks and keep them at bay.
