Completed Grow of 2x OG kush + Mystery seed + home grown seed, citizen CLU048-1212 cobs

IMG_20220725_094733.jpg

Stage 3, Topped, mesh in place, ppfd approx 800

As it says, seedling done, first stage growth done, now topped, mesh in place, ready for LST to spread the branches to fill the horizontal space to the max. lights still on minimum power .525mA x4, as the branches grow and spread I can add 2 more veg cobs to the mix, up the volume, lift the lights and get a wider even spread of photons, yes I will level off the mesh as the plants grow and spread :smoking:

bit by bit.

3 OG kush popped, 1 seems to have not gotten with the program,
I put a home grown seed in a couple of days ater, hope that one pops so I have 4 to grow.
The homie is a much larger plant, with larger buds, certainly compared to the OG I just grew.

The late planted reserve "homie" has popped, so I now have 4 to run with, I expect the homie to catch up in the 1st 3 weeks or so as it is in general a larger more vigorous plant with extremely sticky buds.

Its a funny thing though, we have had a very sunny year so far, but as soon as my seeds popped the sun disappeared, so my babies are already long and straggly, I guess I will just have to plant them deeper.

The last plant seems just about dry enough to pot, just another day or two.

I will then clean out the tent and clean the fans for better efficiency, rewire the lamp to only 4 cobs, drop the volume on the driver and i will be ready to start again.

Once a root system has formed I will mix the soil, coco and perlite and repot,
I plan on two bags and two plastic pots, I think I prefer plastic pots, they seem much easier to regulate, help keep the humidity lower and are easy to clean for reuse.

Nice one mate, good luck with the transplanting, I'm sure you don't need it though but it never hurts to have extra good vibes especially for triplets :bow:

Thanks Pearl-anne, indeed the repotting isnt usually an issue, although I am a little heavy handed,;-)

I expect another 7 days or so in the cups, already did the cleaning of the tent and fans, so onward we go.

Seriously heavyt handed myself, that's why I always sew straight into their big pots. I really admire you guys transplanting. Let the countdown commence mate :headbang:

straight into the mix is as good a method as cups, jiffies, blocks, soak and plant etc etc, they all work out most of the time and they all have their positive and negative moments. The fun of the game :smoking:

no sun, every bloody time I plant a seed the sun is hidden by cloud, I swear its every damn time.
So I dropped all 4 cups into the tent under 4 Citizen CLU048's at min power, 70watts.

20 or so hours later .... Utilizing only 4 of the possible 8 cobs at minimum driver power, approx 0.525 Amp.
They seem happy enough, much better than in the window that isnt going to get any actual sunshine for the next two weeks according to the 14 day forecast. (every time)

Homie, a few days out of sync but a vigorous plant.

days and it

A couple more days a couple of update pics, early morning day 6 under the lamp.

my pics are taken with an old Samsung S5neo @ high resolution which are then too big to upload.
So once I save a set for my own collection, i batch convert with "mogrify -resize 30% IMG*.jpg"
This is the fastest way to batch convert pics to another size/resolution that I know.

A couple of days later, a couple more pics.

The Homie is still far behind but will catch up very soon.

pheeeuw! busy day in a heat wave... mixed 80ltrs bio soil, 40ltrs coco soaked in nute mix, 20ltrs perlite.

that was 40ltrs too much for my needs but will do to repot some balcony plants.

here are some pics,
The bottles allow a slow water feed to the rear plants which become difficult to work with as I only have access through the front opening, its crude but it works well.

I prefer buckets over grow bags but only had two left over. :smoking: and its too hot to go out to the store.

lamp is still running @ min power 4x .525mA, once they are acclimatized I will start ramping up the volume bit by bit.

The "homie" seems to be catching up, after topping no one will ever know the difference.:smoking:

a couple of days, a couple more pics.
The repoting seems to have gone well,

Also checked with a free app my ppfd on my old but trusty samsung s5neo, dont know how accurate the app is, but its very sensitive, so seems acceptable.

lamp is still at minimum power .525mA although its pretty close to the plants they do not appear to be upset, so I will roll with it for the moment but keep an eye on them.
