Hello fellow growmies! This journal will be full of first's for me. This is my first journal here and look forward to having some fun. This is also my first time in a grow challenge. Can't wait to see what everyone has in store. Finally this is my first time running this strain(blueberries). It comes by way of Nukehead seeds and hope it lives up to the hype.
See you all soon,
HT
Thought I would post some pics of the set up.
I had stopped growing for awhile but when the lockdown was announced, I got in on ebay and bought a 4x4 package. My light is an old school 600w MH/HPS with a Hortilux super HPS for flower. Standard 4 in exhaust fan with filters. 3 gal AC infinity fabric pots on Floraflex platforms that drain to my sump pump.
The pic is from today and includes 2 Bruce Banner's, Chem, Bubblegum and White Widow. All are auto's from Nukehead seeds same as the Blueberry I'm going to run for the contest.
✌🏻 HT
Hope all had a great 420. Dropped the Blueberry auto from Nukehead seeds. Planted directly into a 3 gal grow bag from AC infinity. Fertilome ultimate potting soil amended with perlite, garden lime, and plant tone. I watered in both Xtreme Gardenings azos and Mycos.
All that sitting on a heat matt and a flora flex platform. She's under a 600w MH bulb running 20/4. In a week or so I'll switch to a Hortilux super HPS (I have 4 other plants in the same tent that are in preflower) the Hortilux is an awesome bulb to use for a whole run because of the enhanced blue spectrum.
Nutes are Jack's tomato feed and blossom booster. Some cal/mag and fish crap plus black strap molasses for late in flower.
Anyway welcome the all! I think it's going to be a good time. 🤙🙌
All right, all right,all right! We have life. Nice little birthday present this morning.🌄
Day 1. Have a great Sunday growmies!
Alright, alright. We have a little growth. I hope the tap root hit the bottom of the pot and she is not stunted. Tempted to start another just in case he growth don't pick up. See where she is at on Sunday and decide then.
Thanks for stopping by!✌🏻💯
Hello growmies, hope all had a nice mother's day!!!🙏💯
What a difference a week makes! The blueberry is in veg mode and new growth is good. I was worried she was stunted but I think the tap root took a minute to reach the bottom of the pot. I think that's why you see faster initial growth in a solo versus directly in the pot. I guess we'll see what happens over the next few weeks. 🗓️
Today she was given a tablespoon of Xtreme Gardenings azos in her water. The amendments I used when I mixed up my soil should get her to flower no problem. I like to hit auto's with a bloom booster right when they show sex which for me has been between week three and four.
Rather than plantings another blueberry, I'll be doing something different this next run. Should know more next week.
Thanks for stopping by 🙏🤙💯
Sorry all,been playing dad this last weekend helping the daughter move!🥱 Still tired!
The blueberry is chugging along. She is really lanky with node spacing. She showed pistols last Friday and topped at the 4th node. Going to have to tie this girl down for sure. I think she'll triple in size over the next 2 weeks.
Jury is still out on this girl but a lot can happen going forward.
Thank for following along!
Hello growmies, another week has gone by and it seems everyone is chugging along. Still not happy with the blueberry but I'll leave her alone to see what happens.
So I topped and tied her down for the picture challenge. Like I said she is a leggy little girl so she was fun to do a little lst.
Let me know what ya think 🤔
Oh ya, I was selected by Twenty20 Mendocino to be a tester. The strain is called Ogreberry and my pheno is labeled "sour grape". That's why I have the two pots just sitting there. They are on a heat mat to get the soil temp up and then into there forever home! I stoked to be running there genetics for sure 😊🔥💯
Anyway, thanks for stopping by my friends. It is so much appreciated!
Good morning my friends. Hope your enjoying the weekend. Its Sunday again and time for a update! The blueberry is still stretching and starting to stack now. Not huge girl but she sure is sexy all tied up. She's about 37 days now so not to sure how much she'll bulk up.
On another note, after last summers heat wave I made a pledge to myself that I would not hurt another run because of it. Pulled the trigger on the switch to led and purchased 2 240w quantum boards. They are entry level but for the price I'm happy. They are listed as full spectrum, 5000k and 3000k plus 660 and 730 far red.
I have em at 50 percent and bump it up a little at a time to reduce any stress I hope.
Have a great weekend growmies! 🤙💯
Another week gone by and she still doing well. She is starting to stack up now. Just don't know how much she is gonna swell. I'm hoping for some fatty cola's!😁🤗🤞.
She's starting to stack up now! I trimmed most of the large fan leaves and gave here some fish crap a couple days ago. I think she is going to finish up nicely.💪🤗🔥
Well we are coming to the end soon. I figure 7-10 days and she'll be ready for the 🪓. She has chunked up nicely and should be some great smoke. Thanks for stopping by!🤙
Day 75 and the end is here. She got the 🪓 today and is hanging in the cab.
Probably not my best journal I've ever done but fun none the less. I never thought I would have made it into the picture challenges with all the fantastic growers here.
Couple final pic's before the chop.
