Batista Posted July 3, 2021 Author Share Posted July 3, 2021 Looking good man! Where did you get your brick from? Futurama. So I tested the runoff ec this morning and came out to just over 0.4. So you think I should dose again, alot of tiny particles came out in the bottom through the fabric pot. I think it's ready for use now.

I did not make the soft switch deadline as I would like more vegetative growth and training before I flip.Thanks!Hope this pic of my current Totemics Bubba Kush dwc 400hps flower will show you where I'm heading with the tortoni Sent from my SM-A715F using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batista Posted July 5, 2021 Author Share Posted July 5, 2021 Day 49 - Excuse the color as I had to tweak to remove the electro lines,but she is doing fantastic! Sent from my SM-A715F using Tapatalk 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pants Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Looking good there. As for the lines, try a slow shutter shot. Easiest is a Live Photo from an iPhone and changing it to a long exposureSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CreX Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 iv found stepping back and zooming in works okay as well, and putting my hand above the camera like a peak cap, like im in the sun and the sun is hitting the camera and making shit, so i shield the sun...seems to also work a bit for the electro lines. but if you can afford an iphone you can use the long exposure settings 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pants Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 It was a concerted effort that took a couple of years. Figured if I have to code for apple, employers need to provide tools. Score!!Back to our regular scheduled programming. Sorry for the derail Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batista Posted July 13, 2021 Author Share Posted July 13, 2021 Hi Gents.Still chugging along in veg, I removed alot of growth tips in an an effort to try get the stems longer. This has worked to an extent as I have 8 main colas now, with 2 two in front being the ones that need to catchup to the rest. She gets fed twice a week, 0.7ec 6.4 Ph. Very green, the leaves are like leather, There are roots shooting out the bottom of the pot and I wasn't planning to repot, but think I should because my flower tent is only going to be available in a months time? I have a 40l fabric pot ready to go, she is in a 15 atm. Sent from my SM-A715F using Tapatalk 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batista Posted July 19, 2021 Author Share Posted July 19, 2021 So I transplanted her into a 40l fabric pot, which is inside a plastic pot for now. She is recovering at the moment. Getting calmag once a week with her hortimix nutes. Sent from my SM-A715F using Tapatalk 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batista Posted July 26, 2021 Author Share Posted July 26, 2021 She has recovered nicely and is pushing out more growth, I might remove 2 lower stems because they are not catching up. Sent from my SM-A715F using Tapatalk 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batista Posted July 27, 2021 Author Share Posted July 27, 2021 So just a peek at what is flowering right now, I posted a pic of her earlier in the thread. This plant is from a clone of a seed, Bubba Kush, that Totemic gifted me a while back. I was impressed with her the first time around so decided to clone and give her a chance in a dwc.Hortimix nutes and an oldschool 400hps,my last hps grow ever I moved her into the tent 4weeks ago after she started showing signs of flowering. I estimate she is in week 6 of flowering, what do you guys think? She consumes 2 litres a day, need to top up daily Sent from my SM-A715F using Tapatalk 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batista Posted August 28, 2021 Author Share Posted August 28, 2021 Finally harvested this BubbaBanana for scale Bud drying in veg tentMoms and tortonis(I revived my 2 tortonis that made their exit previously in my grow )Moved to larger tent for veg and new 265 w 301b qb installed with wifi switch. They are really loving this light and I got the dimmer switch at only 50% on the slider.So I'm waiting on the bud to dry, then going to shift some plants and probably try flower my 2 tortonis and one of the following in that tent(below plants are 2 months old from mail order clones) -frosted apricots-critical mass cheese-crescendo-Slurricane ix-banana macThe plan now is to automate my watering and drainage because I'm tired of manual draining and . I plan on a rdwc system but will probably end up with a dwc if I know myself haha 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batista Posted August 28, 2021 Author Share Posted August 28, 2021 I dont know why but the pic quality is so bad in those last 2 - what is the maximum image size allowed using tap and any tips for me to improve it? I'm compressing them down into 2mb filesize using some android app called Lit photoSent from my SM-A715F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batista Posted September 15, 2021 Author Share Posted September 15, 2021 A couple pics from 4th September Tortoni is enjoying the 40l fabric pot, but she is too leafy and has alot of lower growth so, I stripped her bare to see how she would handle itMom tentSent from my SM-A715F using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batista Posted September 15, 2021 Author Share Posted September 15, 2021 Here she is 15th September, only 11 days laterShe gained some width and heightBranchingMain trunkMom tent, +-70 cm tallSent from my SM-A715F using Tapatalk 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batista Posted September 15, 2021 Author Share Posted September 15, 2021 Some details I should probably include Ec is 1.3, Im following week 6 in the hortimix excel sheet, and the Tortoni gets 6l, the moms get 3l each and I also alternate between Ph 5.8 and 6.2 every other watering.Watering is a chore because I have to remove each plant and water until they drain out, then put them back Sent from my SM-A715F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prom Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 I use 1.2x1.2 trays and if I have run off, I just drop a few sponges in the tray and remove after a few minutes. No need to raise the tray to drain and picking up the sponges isn't really hard work ^^ If you put a slight angle on the tray, one sponge per corner will do the trick. Just angle to where you can easy access. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
