Photography New crop...

[Joe383]

So my last crop was a fail so here is my new. There is Purple Kush auto (Fem), MI5 Auto (Reg) that I am hope to cross. There are 2 Photo's in the red cups, one is Green crack and the other is Cotton candy both are Fem. The 2 plants in the black pots are my clones. The larger one is Ace of spades and the smaller which has an awesome smell is Perma frost. The Perma frost smells faintly like a chocolate mint plant.


The soil is Happy frog with around 20% pearlite. The nute's are Roots organic Buddha grow, Buddha bloom, General organic's cal/mag and Kel-Tech Silica additive for PH up due to the Grow and bloom lowering the PH.

Thinks guys, my last 2 crops went herm on me (First time it was my fault) and I had a few PH issues so now that I got that stuff figured out should be a good grow. Trying to get my Purple kush crossed with the MI5 so I can get some purple seeds cuz buying stuff over the years is getting expensive as hell. About a week after my autos pollinate I will be killing the males, moving my plants to another room for a few house wile lights are off and cleaning the room then will switch every thing to 12 hours for my Photo's. If a few photo's get some pollen on them then I guess it will be a future project to make my own auto creation.

Thought I would give an update. So far I have one male which showed him self a few days ago and one female which showed her self today, both are MI5. My smaller plants are a few weeks behind the others that is why they are smaller. I transplanted my permafrost which is my smaller clone and am getting ready to transplant the 2 auto MI5s that showed sex and my Photo Green crack later today to 6" pots. I don't care if I stunt my autos a little cuz there for seed so there getting small pots for now. I will probably transplant them when they get root bound in the 6". I also fed the largest plant(My clone of Ace of spades) with Veg and it took it well. This is the second time I have feed it and it has taken the feeding good. Not use to growing Photos so am surprised at how much nutes they can take. I grew one photo before these and it took way more nutes than my autos did. What I fed my clone would have burned an auto.

My auto's are getting crinkle leaf's are these common with MI5? Or can this be a slight def in something? Plants look good just getting waves in some leaves.

Thats usally a temperature issue.

 

[Joe383]

I never new that temp could do that, thanks for teaching me something new. But what temps because my temps are around 75* lights on and 70* lights off. I am using T5s and it is winter so temps are easy to control.

So my clone is getting big, the smaller clone is a little small but it was small when I got it and I topped it before I should. I wanted to hold my clones back so they would not be too large when I placed every thing in to bloom. I will probably have to trim my larger clone in a week or two so it dose not take over my grow space.


My autos are doing good. I have one male MI5 which is stretching a little(I am guessing this is normal because my other males have done the same in the past) I have 2 female MI5s for mothers that are in pre flower.


My 2 purple Kush are still in red cups and one is ready to be transplanted. I also still have my Cotton candy in a red cup, it is about 1 week away from being transplanted.


I have only fed my largest clone so far with Veg( 2 times so far ) silica and both clones have bean feed with cal/mag due to stems being purple. I am about to start to feed every thing with cal/mag once a week or so and my potted autos are about a week away from there first veg feeding. I am going to keep my autos in small pots to try and stunt them a little because there only for seed and will be placing the photos in to bloom in around the end of the month with the autos still on the room. Will have to take every thing out of room for a few hours in around 2 or 3 weeks and try to clean the space of the pollen I am letting fly. The cool thing is my clones are showing pre flowers and I will end up with a few seeds from them too. My favorite way to pollinate if I still want good bud is to pollinate only the pre flowers on my autos too, works great cuz there useless buds anyway.

Hello Impala

I did not mention before, but I have some Cotton Candy's in various stages of growth. All planted about the same time. I have some vegging for mother's. I got one in full bud, and I got a couple of them just thrown into flowering, after finding I have no room for more mother's.








I am gonna cross one with Amnesia Haze, and one with a Low Rider, to start my first attempt at making an Autoflowering strain.

I like the structure on your kids. Looking nice so far. :Sharing One:

Peace
