Mine are in 300 gallon pots and the last time I watered was a little over 2 weeks ago..

Hey Kief.... I am using about 10 or 20 gallons a day per large girl....I have a water delivery each week....3500 gallons a week!!!Juggling making hash and trimming "last years" crop and trying to keep current crop alive and WELL. Peace OLDSCHOOL

Hopefully 4-7 pounds each. The Bubbas will be more on the 3.5-5 side and the DOGs will be on the 6-8 LB side.. My next place will be all in the ground 12 x 12 x 1...950 gallons...

I'm going to be developing another parcel for farming ganja and all the holes there will be 12' square 1' deep in the ground with hardware cloth and landscape fabric..each one will be 950 gallons..
I have no problem writing back and forth via PM..curious why you do not want to exchange info out in the open ? Later on it could be useful to another member trying to do the same..
Out in the open is cool... some people dont want to share openly....I am not bothered by it... I hope to help out others also... Sharing ideas helps us all!!!Quote:

I'll go with either Pro Mix or Black Gold as those are the two base mixes I have the most experience with and can get the cheapest.
Cheapest is good:)I am surprized no one ask questions .....ever.... I like to see other ways of doing it and seeing other results...My goal is ......"not so much labor".....more automation...(i do allot of hand watering because I will drownd them with the drip system)...Quote:

hey old school, those are big. I'd love to help with those, man they look great. Why can't you guys live in canada gezz. lol
i wish my shit was that big..genetics and starting from seed really make a big difference..next year i wont grow so many slow kushes..ill do those in the dep..I want to do UK Cheese, The DOG, and Casey Jones out door next year in my 300s....15 of each, and then I'll have 15 smaller Kushes.
Yours will be that big! I just start early....maybe too early!!!Seed plants are larger...In general..We had REAL BAD wind yesterday. Straight line at about 55-65 mph w/gusts higher...It was a sad day...Quote:

Are you showing flowering signs yet? When do you start to change nutes over and how?I have some huge plants in flower and I guess I go w/it....???I think "OLD" "LARGE" plants are ready to flower so much earlier than young clones... Does that make sense..Look forward everyday to sharing info w/you and I hope the dude on the other post will join us so we can really compare and share thoughts...(grandpa..) Peace......OLDSCHOOL
That's true for sure and next year I wont plant any mothers but put those in the light dep and take a bunch of clones in mid March so I can plant my beds in early April ( will have hoop houses over each row) That way my clone plants will get huge also I am going to use some different genetics next year with a little more scoot to them.
Things start to show like they're going to bud towards the end of the month around here. I'm going to dose them hard one more time and then back off so there isn't a bunch of built up nitro keeping them from switching over and then in pick back up hitting them hard. Thinking about using some 30-10-10 at the start of flower to really give them a kick in the pants but I've worked very hard to keep it all organic so far so it seems like going backwards
Really....30-10-10 at the start of flowering??????? The bulk of my plants...( which are all med plants) are starting to flower now... Unsure if I should be giving only flowering nutes so soon or mix it up a little....?????Quote:

Well some people I know use either 30 10 10 or 20 20 20 at the start of flower then taper off in to using only organics to finish to raise the quality level but I'm thinking I'm not going to be on the Grow More program..I worked too hard to stay NOP certified..
you should try indonesian or jamaican bat guano to get your Phos. indo is usally
(.5-12-.3) and jamaican is (1-10-.2). Budswel(0-7-0) is cool too cause it dissolves straight in water.
I just put jamaican guano on my grow sites then water it in. I like to add just alil fish nutes to the water because my plants have used up most of the Nitrogen in the soil durin veg, and the beasties helps break down the guano.
you'll still need a K source but i mix Palm Bunch Ash (0-0-30) in to my soil when i condition it so i don't really worry bout adding more. And some newjersey greensand is good too.
I also water'em with some molasses too but only up to halfway throu flowerin because the Magniesuim gives that harseness to the smoke you sometimes get.
Hi all! here's an update.... Flowers everywhere! Going to be an early harvest this year!!! Yea....The cleaners will have early work... It's good for all. Most all plants are flowering now.... Looks great so far... Still a ways to go. Peace.......OLDSCHOOL

Here's a shot of the purple wreck plant in the greenhouse... Starting to get a little frost on her... Third photo is a Purple Wreck outside . This is the purple pheno...She smells so good... Buds are about bottle size now and we still are a ways off.Seems like a early harvest ? Last photo is my personal favorite Blueberry x T1.This plant is a super high yielder and never any surprizes...she always performs...The seed came from Northern cali.. covelo /Mina road in 2005 and I grew the first crop for seed here in Colorado...These plants stand out above all the others in the garden. Peace........Oldschool
Purple Wreck on left.....Blueberry x T1 on right.....So hard to pick a favorite.... Look at te flower production on the PW and i'm not even light depoing it !!! Picked first one Aug. 5th. Thats very early for sure!!!:smoke1: Peace........OLDSCHOOL
Your Urk x T1 looks bad ass. If you got T1 crosses from Covelo I bet we know some of the same people. Big love. D
