dukes drobes

[duke]

hi all a short update and some pics from all 3 drobes,some changes as in the 2 x watermelon punch autos got the chop one did ok the other was crap and got fed up watching it use light and food and not growing!
so in the bigger drobe now we have a blue venom photoperiod from g13 labs and the og kush auto from seedstockers still growing at god only knows age its got maybe another 2 weeks before it gets chopped and being as its now on 12-12 not expecting masses but it smells good and very sticky/shiny.
in the tiny veg cab now all on its own is an ace seeds bangi haze (with no haze in it)stupid but after some severe bending popping and whacking with a stick it is tamed enough to flower out under the now full power 250w qb.
in the smaller drobe is still the same 2 x grape ape x ghost train haze photoperiods under the 250w hps so sorry for the rather horrid pics but i never get in there before light comes on!looking good and smell nice if a bit unusual a bit like a packet of kippers when you open the drobe! cba looking up the flower times of these there cooked when there cooked the rest is just a waiting game and trying not to feck them up! pics enjoy and thanks for looking in,peace all

hi all well the horrid manky wimpy ruderalis hybrids are gone! chopped the last one a couple of days ago the seedstockers og kush auto it done a lot better than the watermelon punch auto which just seemed to stop growing at midpoint and ended up with a little over an oz from the 2.
the og has probably around 4 oz from the 2 but wont be sure till it dried (what hasnt gone for oil).
so i moved the bangi haze photoperiod (with no haze in it) into the bigger drobe with the blue venom photoperiod,this left the tiny veg cab empty and we can not have that can we? so after having grown a few different seed stockers and ended up nearly none being what there meant to be i saved the rest for emergencies and have gone back to the tried and trusted barneys farm strains for the next photoperiod run.
i have the last barneys vanilla kush seed sown along with glookies and 2 critical kush all in tiny pots of just moist coco no light extraction minimal and tube heater with stat set at 25c,some of the seeds are very old so we shall see what thrives or not in the next few days.
i have ordered myself a present of a climate controller for the tiny veg cab which should make it easier to get healthy seedlings and maybe even get some clones this run.
pics tonight and i shall try get them before the damn hps comes on this time,might help if i knew what time it comes on though!,,,,,,
been smoking some of the powerplant from the last photo run and im still not overly keen on the taste but its good potent weed,oil from it is so strong its like a mild mushroom trip!laters.

hi all some pics for you taken tonight and no horrid hps pics this time,tbh i could/should have taken more time and care scrogging these but i didnt and now they are well past such treatment and can only be bent and layed down as they climb up near the light,so far theres some nice budsites and they are looking healthy.the autos being gone has cheered me up as i was sick of looking at those ugly feckers!
so some pics from all 3 drobes,enjoy.

meet our pet puma jack.

hi all well some 10 days since the last picture update and flowering is going pretty well and i took a bunch of pics from all 3 drobes taken tonight and even got them with no horrid hps! the grape ape x ghost train haze pair are both bulking up now and 1 smells like sweaty socks the other like cold roast beef but both are very sticky.
the blue venom and bangi haze (not haze at all) blue venom has been flowering 10 days longer than bangi haze not haze hence such different growth,bv smells heavenly even this early,the bangi haze not haze has zero smell so far.
in the tiny veg cab im not doing so well with the seeds and only one of the 4 barneys critical kush have germed and none of the glookies im guessing there a bit old and possibly badly stored.
also found in my seed stash a single barneys farm tangerine dream no1 dated 2011 so def long shot but soaked it overnight and was still floating but a tap and it sunk and stayed sunk meaning it may possibly be viable,we shall see.
heres pics i hope there ok,peace all and happy christmas to all.
cheers all.

All look absolutely stunning but that grape ape great job!

The blue venom is a very lemon tasting bud, tbh its one of my faves for smell test when you crack a cured bud, its lush to max and it hits the spot nicely and gets you high, pretty heavy stone if i remember rightly.

I do remember going to a party way up north to Deeks house a few years ago now, its where i bumped into Budgie and Olmec, anyhow Olmec had the blue venom on him that he had grown i was smoking it most the night, good fun that party was.

Grows look bang on as usual Duke. Merry Christmas to you both mate.

hi all i took some pics tonight but was cross finding the timer fecked up because some bloody kid decided his phone was more important than my drobe and unplugged it! they been told before as well,gggrr.
other than that i found out leaving nutrient out to freeze and then defrost buggers it right up,only after 3 weeks of puzzlement not understanding fading early foliage then it occured to me,new bought myself scolded and nutes stored elsewhere from now on.
got pics before hps came on as well! no clue on flower times etc reay when they fall over works for me.cheers all

close; how about no fecking holes!worst thing is i did 2 substandard grows in it before i finally noticed! but took the drill to it for the next run and maybe do better,it showed the difference they make though as they was potbound to hell come choptime.
well i now have 2 empty drobes but am too sick to do feck all of any use as im tired and breathless in 5 minutes.
the tiny veg cab has a single barneys farm vanilla kush a single barneys farm critical kush and 2 blue venom so im quitting trying to germ any other seeds either they was duds when delivered or i fucked them up some how idk.
even the last seeds to hit my doormat seedstockers santa marta haze from the pointstore not one of the 3 germed,temps are ok rh a little low but high enough and i even used new coco so i give up and will just do single plant scrogs next run.
on the happier side the smaller drobe is full of drying weed the blue venom and grape ape x ghostrain haze both did pretty well the ace seed bangi haze was a waste of space and what little there was smelled so fecking horrid the lot has gone in the oil pot,made me feel physically sick trimming it so never again!
i have been ill and bedbound for the last week never felt so shit with banging headaches and copd making breathing very difficult so not even had energy to clean the empty drobes or even dispose of the evidence so no pics yet but will try this week.
tomorrow i am dreading i have to take my beloved ancient mr fugly pooch to vets and have the worst feeling he will not be coming home with me and i do not know how the fuck i will cope without my best friend and been the best dog ever for 14 years,my heart is breaking.
