Mephisto Genetics Lizards mephisto hps V cobs grow off.

[Lizardking]

Right then folks,I've had a cpl of weeks sabbatical,and I've been bored not growing anything,so it's on to the next grow.
This time,I'll be running 2 tents.i have a 4X4 and a 3X3,I'll be running hps in the 4X4 and cobs in the 3X3.im going to leave it another week before germinate the 2nd lot of seeds,which will be going in the 3X3...purely because,I don't want both tents being harvested at the same time,due to me probably having a nervous break down by having to trim up 2 tents worth of plants in one hit lol.
So bare with me for a week or so for the next lot of seeds.
The 4X4 tent is up and running,I'll call it day 2 today.in the 4X4,I'm growing Sour orange livers,samsquanch OG,Walter White,and trident special.the hps is running 24/7 at the moment,and it may stay that way,where I grow in a shed,I struggle to maintain decent temps this time of the year.
I'm growing in coco,using run to waste method.i use the canna range for veg,and green planets massive boost for flower.
Still trying to decide on strains for the 3X3 tent,it's so hard trying to pick out these lovely Mephisto goodies,but I have a rough idea of what I'll be growing.this will be my first time using cobs,so bare with me if start asking questions about them,be good to see how they perform against my trusty old 600 watter.ive read that I might need to use cal mag with cobs and coco? My tap water is shite,full of chalk,so I'm hoping I might be ok...we will see,but I'm hoping for a trouble free run.
Not much more to say really...this is the boring bit of growing,but hopefully in a cpl of weeks,things will be more interesting.
Time for a little role call... @hippy71 @stoney T @Seabass @water farm and anyone else I've forgotten lol
Pic was taken yesterday....day 1.

Looks good LK, what size pots you got there? Thinking you fill the 4x4 no prob with those 4. Good luck and hope you see smooth sailing.

I find cal mag is a must with coco and cobs. Also I'd use ro water if possible.

Thanks man.the pots are 12 litre,yeah these 4 babies will fill the tent up nicely.so do you suggest I preload my pots with a splash of calmag? Prevention is better than cure they say lol.i would love to use ro water,but unfortunately...money’s tight.
Thanks for looking in man

Ya bro, I deffo precharged with cal mag. Cal is immobile so it needs a constant flow for healthy plants. Coco and cobs seem to make them need more cal.

Thanks for the advise bro.im bound to run into a calmag issue,so it makes sense to throw some through the pots before it’s too late.

looking good mate il keep my eye on the sour orange livers iv got 6 waiting for their time to shine it would be cool to see a comparison of the same strains under each light to see the differences but you stick to the plan you have have you any training planned topping or lst

how would you go about preloading the pot soak the medium with 1ml/L of calmag

That's exactly how I do. Also add in 1/4 strength a+b nutes for initial watering.

Thanks dude.i grew sour alien livers last grow,and man that’s some strong weed lol.im hoping the same from sour orange,hopefully I can get her nice and big.yeah ideally,it would be good to test the same strains in both tents,but I’m gonna stick to what I’ve got planned.not planning on any training or topping this grow,gonna let them just get on with it,but if the structure of the plant starts going tits up,I may do some supercropping :smoking:

Yeah I just soak the medium with 1/4 dose of A+B,rhizotonic and 1ml per litre of calmag

That's exactly how I do. Also add in 1/4 strength a+b nutes for initial watering.

Gives them a good start eh man...regarding the calmag,never used it before...would I use it every feed after preloading the pots?

thanks for the tip guys also a good daily or twice daily leaf tucking does wonders for autos that you dont plan to train
