dukes drobes

[duke]

Looking lovely as ever Duke

allright dave ,the smaller drobe scrog got chopped last night as i found a small bit of budrot on one of the buds i pinched to quick dry,bummer but glad i caught it tbh i been lucky as rh been massive for weeks 80% and even 99.9 the highest the meter goes!cheers for visit,peace

Do you feed /water every day Duke I see you like a big pot looks great by the way

hi wrh yes fertigate daily and the bigger than normal pots was a test and will not be repeated,10 ltr airpots work much better than 20ltr flowerpots so be using only 7-10 ltr airpots in future.
well sorry for lack of updates and pics but me and my tina are both very ill i suspect with covid19 and have just got the test kits and have been wasting my phone credit fruitlessly trying to get some help from the doctors,fecking useless shower of Fairys pardon my french but tina is on oxycontin and gabapentin for her spinal stenosis and cannot keep them down just coughs till shes sick so now suffering withdrawals as well as chest infection/possible covid and all i wanted is some anti nausea meds sent to chemist but no that be too easy
now told to ring back at 2pm,if they refuse im going to go up there and strangle some one
also worried now the other 2 drobes could also harbour rot but too ill to do anything about it atm other than a quick water,may get pic update later if im up to it. i feel like death warmed up!

I must give that Vanilla Kush a grow one day, its one that keeps calling my name. Your grows are looking fab mukka.

hi jimmi and all well grow is shabby and so are these pics but best i can do at the moment me and tina are both real sick still and did a home covid test and have to self isolate till we get results but pretty sure it the covid and was brought down with the grandkids,see i have copd and asthma tina has had a bad chest for years but never as bad as this.
so plants have suffered a bit and been on just water for the last week as im to weak to carry and mix nutrients
so the smaller drobe tangerine dream got unceremoniously chopped and majority has gone in the dehydrator for making tinas oil it has filled 5 trays of the dehydrator and is now dried and in the freezer,the remainder minus the rotten bud (biggest on the plant) is layed on the scrog net with light turned off and extraction turned down and the heater set at 22c and that bit is for me for smoking if i can as atm i cant even manage a pipe without choking till im sick so am straightest i have been for many years,shame i do not get on with the oil so sober i shall remain for now
anyhow i took a few pics tonight most are terrible a few are maybe in focus.
still waiting for the poxy chemist to deliver tinas meds to stop her being sick as the feckers wont let me even wave outside the window and bring it out to me
got to admit being frightened as we both are old farts and not in good health .
anyhow enough moaning heres pics sorry they not up to my usual standards


cheers for looking in,peace all

I love looks of the vanilla kush you grow it has those big fat calyxes that swell to max, really nice plant is it Dinafems ?

I cant imagine how scary it is your feeling if you`ve both got covid, i know i would be bricking my pants, its bumping us old and infirm types off or was at one point at a crazy death rate, not so much now with those jabs are holding up and preventing death. But get well mate and Tina too, much love to you both.

hi the vk is barneys farm as is the tangerine dream,tbh these are not the best vk pheno but i do have 3 seeds left to try find the top pheno again,kicked myself for mislabeling the clones and loosing her.
we both have had 2 jabs and was due booster but i got ill before it and had to cancel,then kids come and brought it with them i think,never felt so rough even when i had tubercolosis been a week and we still alive,we shall see.
here has highest covid rate in our area so likely would have caught it even if kids hadnt come.
you take care.peace

I hope you both feel better soon mate

[duke]

hi all well im still alive though still very ill both myself and my tina still have a serious chest infection/flu but had negative covid tests so thats something i guess,dont make you feel any better though
well so far the smaller drobe tangerine dream 2014 pheno scrog has been harvested and half hung for a week to dry in the drobe just layed on the scrog net with the heater on low and no light.
a couple of days ago a delivery driver kindly informed me he could smell my grow from 5 doors away of course us both being ill we had little sense of smell and was unaware of the problem so i ordered a new 150mm cf for the bigger drobe and harvested the now well ripe tangerine dream from the ex veg cab and have hung it in the bigger drobe with the new cf as its so smelly even with a completely blocked nose i could smell it so presume the ducting from the rvk to cf outside at rear of drobe has been damaged /split /come undone and i am to poorly to be able to move the drobe out to check whats wrong,so harvested and all is turned off for the first time in years theres 2 empty silent drobes and just the bigger one with the vanilla kush and new cf still running.the cf i changed out of there is from 2015 but was a good make and due respect for lasting so long,
i doubt the new one though in theory the same size will last half as long as its about half the weight of the old one and obviously less carbon in it though supposed to be good australian rc 412 virgin carbon and the 150mm cost me £55 so we shall see how well it lasts,a good test is the tangerine dream harvest along with mature smelling vks,if it can cope with that without leaking smells it must be ok no?
anyhow heres some dodgy pics with blurry bits and some not in focus due to the cough making camera shake about like a drunken arsehole!
thanks for any visits and comments welcome,peace

Hey @duke
You was lucky with that delivery driver, I had to do the same at a customers neighbour, I could smell plants out the front and back of the house so knocked the door but got no answer, ended up sticking a note through the letterbox telling them to invest in a new cf lol
Them buds are looking lovely though, congrats

They look superb Duke, proper skills.

Hope you and your missus are feeling better soon.

How are they with 70RH in flower? my grow hits that and slightly more at night. First time running more than a couple of plants so I was sitting myself over budrot. Yours seem really healthy.

hi vador yes i guess my next door neighbours too polite to mention the smell! still its sorted for now and yes it looks as though the harvest of the tangerine dream from the ex veg cab will be a new personal best from a 250w hps amazing as she was sharing the net with an auto so only about 3/4 of the net has done bloody great,my god the smell is so freaking strong its near impossible to hide and even leaks smell from a sealed glass barneys farm stash jar! just means you cannot ever leave the house with it esp if going in the car ,good on you for warning them though i wonder if they took any notice? i certainly did as in far to old to end up homeless or in prison again! would be 3rd strike jobbie as well just glad local plod are to lazy to walk around here!thanks for visit,peace
