Mephisto Genetics Double Grape, 3BOG, and a CDLC x Sour Stomper

[Phreakoftheweek]

I have enjoyed reading others grow journals so I figured it was time to do one myself. So here goes....

Space - 4x4 tent

Lights - 1 Tasty T4 and 1 Tasty T3P COB LED’s

Medium - Running a 60/40 coco to perlite mix

Nutes - My first try with Mega Crop. I’m using their CalMag, Sweet Candy, and Bud Explosion as well. Using RO water

Air Exchange - Using a 6” Vortex S Line exhaust fan with a Phresh carbon filter ( I hope the damn thing has one more grow in it). Just got that 48” tower fan so I will be able to keep the air moving at the top.

Containers - 2 are 5 gallon Smart Pots and a single 2 gallon nursery pot

Hydrated the coco block in a solution of 2g/gal of MC, 1g/gal of CalMag, and .5g/gal of Sweet Candy

Soaked 3 seeds and dropped them on the 31st. The DG is in the smart pot on the left, GW on the right, and the CDLCxSS is in the nursery pot and I am going to abuse the hell out of it

November 2 the Double Grape has decided to enjoy some light

Grapey Walt is being a lazy ass so I will give it a few more days. I have a 3BOG ready to soak if GW doesn’t work out in hopes it will finish about the same time as the others.

Temp is at 77F and RH is at 59%

Welcome aboard. I really like coco but the margin for error is less. This is my first run with MegaCrop so I'm excited to see what it can do. I have been using Remo the last couple of cycles with good success but there are just too many bottles to mix!

I will tag along, nice setup and nice choices on nutes and strains.

Got a feeling your going to get huge plants. Prepare for an ungodly amount of frost.

Hugh plants came back to bite me last grow as I lost the largest colas of my Forgotten Cookies to rot because it grew above the 33" tower fan. Hope the taller fan and the addition of 2 8" fans clipped to the roof will help remedy that. Mephisto cranks out some big plants (at least the 9 strains I have grown) and make it difficult to run anyone else's gear.

Yeah, losing bud is rough, losing whole plants is devastating. I lost 2 monster FC due to basement flooding, pretty harsh cutting up 2 45+ day old at 5 feet tall, nicely stacked trees.
Anywho more airflow will help, reducing rh in mid flower will also help prevent rot. Do you have any air extraction?

Yeah Mephisto is all I care to run these days, haven't been disappointed yet. I grow in 2 liter coco Hempy's to try and keep them smaller, still get bigger than I like sometimes.

I run a humidifier to keep RH up until about the 2nd week of flower and then crank up the dehumidifier and try to drop the RH to 40% or below. I did extend my exhaust hose a good bit and installed a dog door and run the exhaust out in to the garage so I will see how this works

Well Grapey Walter still hasn't shown up to the party. She is officially on notice, report for duty in the next 24 hours or you are out.

Mixed up a batch of feed/water. Dropped the CalMag to the recommended dosage, 2grams per gallon of MegaCrop, 1gram per gallon of Sweet Candy, .6ml/gallon of Mammoth P, and bit of Hydroguard for good measure.
