Hello friends, I am new here and would like to share my recent Mephisto grow. I did a grow log on another forum with little interest. I don't think that will be a problem here. I think this will be my new home.
So I ran 2 Sour Cracks, 2 Auto Blues, and 2 SODK. They flowered in my 5'x5'x6' tent. Intake and carbon filtered exhaust fans kept the temps in check. I used 2 lamps of DIY COB LED's, lamp 1 has 8 Cree cxb3590's and lamp 2 has 3 Vero 29's. Lamp 1 I set at 160w and lamp 2 around 140w. Any higher wattage would make to much heat and raise the ambient temps. Has been a hot summer here.
Medium was 100% coco in about 2 liter hempy pots. Nutes were Canna coco a+b, Rhizotonic, CalMag, and pH down. Ran the base around 1/4 recommended rate for the entire grow, still had some burnt tips. Also ran into some lockout or mag deficiency, that's when the cal mag was started. Also gave some silicates early on, then stopped early flower.
These auto's can really drink, I was having to hand water feed twice a day, or they'd dry out. Not good to let coco dry.
I'm sure I forgot to mention stuff, but here are some pre chop pics.
Sour Crack
Auto Blues
SODK, these were huge compared to the others.
I'm super happy with what I got out of these, the smoke is divine and I still have a lot of curing to do. Want to throw a huge THANK YOU to Mitch and gang over on the mountain, you guys are amazing!
I just ordered 5 strains of the latest Illuminato's, so I'm definitely going to start those asap. Double Grape looks delish. Still have a bunch of beans from my first order to start as well. Decisions to make, they are all exceptional strains.
Peace, Roast.
