Gotta respect the shout out even after being so fired up. This is the kinda shit the world needs more off. Oh, btw, KILLER LOOKING GARDEN @Max !

Ok .the plant pots are getting light now lights on so it’s time to up pot them.day 22.nxt pot size is 4.5 litre ..they will stay in that till end of week 5 then up pot again into there final home which is a 4 gal then put them into flower..the blackberry moonshine bx1 and the fire cherry moonshine are light feeders but looking a nice dark green at 320ppm ..the blackberry moonshine isn’t as vigorous as the others.(small).maybe I just got unlucky with the 2 phenotypes or they are just slow starters and pick up the pace later..

Don't really know Max, fancy a Super Lemon Haze, or a bubblegum some were in the line up.

 

[Max]

The transplanting went well without a hitch .all leaves are up.before I transplant I water the pots they are in,wait a couple hrs then do the up pot seems to work well for me.a generous amount of white shark micorhiza sprinkled in the hole before up potting.the cmh 315 is a pretty potent fixture.light is 36’ above .when I check an hr before lights off all leaves are down .I’m pretty sure they are reaching there saturation point.( light intensity) so I might reduce it down to 17 hrs light nxt grow.it would b interesting to see if there is any difference in size with 35hrs less light over the 5 week veg period.if there’s no diff that’s a saving on the power bill.i should do something like that in flower too..to grow plants is getting very expensive..

 

[Max]

Looks like it’s time to sharpen the scissors and start the harvester up..but first I gotta get some munchies..will take some pics as I go.only 4 to do..the afl grand finals on tomorrow well today now so maybe tonite if I’m not blind drunk . your Katy perry is here for half the time entertainment…gonna b a great day…..Go Lions

 

[Max]

Oh yeah.i have only ran power si bloom for a week in flower this grow...stems and buds are no different in size..makes me think the PSI mono silic I’ve ran for a couple years ain’t doing shit.I actually don’t like running this power si as I have to use abit of up to get the ph right.whereas the PSI was near bang on on ph.

She is fit.

 

[Max]

Well I done 2 .one small with about 3 oz .the other ..fuck me .i think it took 21/2 hrs .. ps.don’t try and do trimming half pissed. I reckon ill get bout 7 off her easy.the nxt one is phaaat too.huge nugs.she’s purpled up too.over the last 2 yrs there has been 3 standouts and I got all three in there this grow.they are the ones to clone .the fox tailing has helped chunk a few up this round.I’ll do the chunky monkey tomorrow and the one beside it..she’s pretty much the same one I tied with pipecarver on BB’s first bud of the month contest..

 

[Max]

Just about to do chunky.man this one has the dense orange dreams buds.there’s some beautiful purpling through them too.I’ve already taken a couple oz hanging far left in main plant pic..another 6-7oz on this gal too..I think the gods are looking down at me this grow being kind to me . One thing…having the branches supported sure helps a lot when stripping the leaves off by hand.beats using the scissors at first..

 

[Chemistry]

Well if that doesn't get you battered, nothing will.

 

[SSgrower]

I keep telling my growmie mentor, 6 oz. is a decent harvest, he says to me I never got 6 oz.? Well there is 12-14 you grew? Beautiful work Max, makes me wanna go down under and walkabout. Cheers!

 

[Max]

Yeah…I seem to average 5 1/2-6 oz a plant in the room 99% of the time but there are smaller ones that I only get 3-4 oz off with the bigger plants are usually between 5 -7 oz...that’s with a 5 week veg from seed.there’s usually 6 plants in the room..awhile back I grew this monster I called the scary movie plant .it frightened me haha.14oz off that one and I doubt I will beat that.it fox tailed hard with the top cola the size of a 2 litre milk bottle…sshz was growing the sweet zombie at other place and his yield was exceptional,so I wanted to grow them too.the pics in here somewhere.an absolute pita to trim..some of you guys would remember at the other place.

 

[Max]

I think I know reason why the 3 standout phenos came out..when I done the reversal I selected #1 and pollinated 1,4,5 ..ive been growing #1 over #4 ..this grow I ran with #5 and they all showed ,the blackberry moonshine plants have picked up so that’s good to see..the fire cherry moonshines looking good..the Zamal sunset growing well .throwing the sunset sherbet over the zd has beefed up the stem and branches aren’t as flimsy and octopussy compared to the Zamal dreams.still a great plant but and smokes up better than the sunset sherbet…it will b interesting what the sunset sherbet x Zamal dreams smokes up like.hopefully crossing hasn’t dropped the potency too much.9 there.5 fems 4 regs.praying 2 out of the 4 regs are female .that will give me 7.they were looking a little light early on but are now greening up nice.they are a little darker than whay the pic shows…on day 28 here 400ppm 500 scale 5.95 ph.another week the regs should b showing what they are

 

[Max]

Some purpling .

Charlie’s stank ass day 71

3 to go.this one is cooked.coming out of the oven tomorrow ( below)oh..looks like I have a female fire cherry moonshine in there aaaand quite possibly an black berry moonshine bx1 in veg...freaking awesome..

 

[SSgrower]

I'm jelouis! mispelled. SS

 

[Max]

32 days gone.the fire cherry moonshine seems to b the biggest ,tallest but lateral growth and bushiness is behind the Zamal sunset,Zamal dreams.sorta doesn’t really mean anything atm but I’m betting she’s going to stretch more than the others.i will top as usual and will probably crop her.she’s in the middle .3 more days and I’m flicking the switch..

[Max]

Charlie stank ass popcorn buds…seriously this plant is a beast.Maui skunk dog x orange dreams.serious mold resistance.if you grow these a little close to a high intensity light and they will chunk up with good foxtailing..it’s not genetic..lowers are fine and the previous one done exactly the same.and the phenos are pretty much the same BIG! .I’d go close to 3p off 6 with a 5 week veg…..this is just a teaser pic.there’s a couple more coat hangers .going to have to cut these up so it dry evenly.got to get the flower room ready now but first I’m having a rest

 

[steamroller]

Super nice looking buds there Max~!

 

[SSHZ]

Super nice looking!

 

[Max]

The pic doesn’t do them justice really.they look pretty filthy as in resinous with a bluish tint to them.a little like blue dream.
Have all the girls in the flower room and the Zamal dreams (back 3 ) appear abit ragged…front row L to R Zamal sunset,Fire Cherry Moonshine,Zamal sunset.front left corner the Blackberry Moonshine bx1. The FCM branches are sticking real close to the main stem.they are the biggest but not the best in there.med to long distance between the nodes.the blackberry moonshine bx1 are the smallest,havnt determined sex yet but there is something there ..just too small to see it..all have been topped with about 8-9 steps ..16 to 18 branches..snipped off the lower ones and a few fan leaves..they should b right to about day 10-14.I’ll take some big fan leaves off during that time…lights at 450 killer wasps.5.94 ph .36 ” to light to the tallest.I’ll give them a few days at 450 to settle in then I’ll ramp it up to 620 watts max .

The cross I made .sunset sherbet x Zamal Dreams. Zamal sunset.

Zamal dreams

Fire Cherry Moonshine .they have to share a stand till they show there sex.same with the FCM.


FCM

 

[Max]

I’ll give them some sulphur spray before they start flowering .they were stressed the last couple days with the rh up to 84% but they are back to normal now .just standing in the room lights off setting the night temp and rh parametres .atm fan exhausts at 24.4 deg C at 58% humidity.thats with me in there .I’ll check in 10-20 mins and see where it’s at and get it to 65%rh and hopefully temp is over 25deg..I want to get it pretty close to day temp to stop the stretch.but they won’t do too much till about day 10 onwards.topping them slows them down for abit.going to be a great grow by the looks.

 

[Rootsruler]

Super healthy plants that will yield massive colas......yawn......

 

[Max]

I’m due for some big ones

Those look good Max, you bred those huh, nice. I am a humble grower. Thank's for the views@

 

[Max]

Just pollen chucked lol.i reversed the Zamal dreams..back 3 just tried to make some seeds with what I have.if I was in the states i wouldn’t even bother…with the Zamal dreams crossing her with sunset sherbet was again for seeds and to see what I would get combining both there qualities..when you google reviews on sunset sherbets yield they say it is low.it ain’t too bad.i thought it was okay.

sunset sherbet below I grew 2018.this gear is soo loud.bud looks very similar to Zamal dreams so I thought it was a good match

[Max]

just gave them their feed and will up pot the 5 fems shortly.hopefully the 4 regs show a little more so I can up pot them also.only need 2 out of the 4.they are not showing enough for me to up pot .2 look like fems though.i might just have to do all of them and make a couple more stands.…im very happy how things are going….I’m seeing my plants on Jeff’s instagram .good to see.pics.

 

[Max]

Done 5.I’ll put some castor wheels on the pot stand on back right just to lift it up a little more..I lowered the front outside 2 as they were the tallest.just to get them more even and more head room .i don’t want it completely even though so some photons can reach through to the lower leaves...this is moments before light off..they are not even skipping a beat.some big leaves on the blackberry moonshine doesn’t mean it’s a male though.i might make a couple stands today then sit back and watch the v8 Supercars top 10:shootout..Bathurst is on tomorrow…

 

[Max]

Fire Cherry Moonshine has joined the gang(front middle) and found another male. blackberry moonshine bx1.

 

[Max]

A few moments later
View attachment IMG_5733.MOV
kinda sux actually as was very keen to run the bbm bx1. The other bbm looks like it’s a male aswell ..I’ve been waiting for them to show so I can run 1 in the 1 gal challenge.so now that’s that..it’s alive for now but it’s days are limited .it just seen me murder the the other plant so its shitting bricks

 

[steamroller]

Plants look great Max~!
SVG was commenting how it felt weird to be at the Roval in Charlotte when he was usually at Bathurst this time of year.
Hope we didn't take your best driver, he is fun to watch.

 

[Max]

the Gizz certainly would of made it more interesting how he drives..would of won easily I reckon…the race was boring as with only one safety car for the entire race .nothing made it interesting to watch as it was a very clean race.was the quickest race in our history..uno It’s sad as it’s not really an Australian manufacturer event anymore.the motto was once….win Sunday sell Monday. use to love the Holden vs ford rivalry and all the banter stirring ea other up..it’s pretty much an all American car race now .what will make it a little interesting is when walkinshaw Andretti united join the fore in the 2026 season in a Toyota supra GR ..only 4 cars but..

 

[Max]

1 week gone. giving them 3 litres now once a day.starting to warm up more now so the heaters off and the dehuey s on low.rh is not really where I want it hoovering between 52-58 but as they grow it will increase markedly.i can turn the dehuey off but I would rather it b lower than higher.if it rains or goes overcast while I’m in bed snoring the rh can change quickly as I’m in a shed and my rh is dictated by what happens outside so I’d rather b in control just incase.i select all the growing parameters manually as I like to b hands on..i don’t mind the extra time with the gals.I’m just old skool.above and below pics give you an idea of the growth.the lateral are growing out more since I tipped them.you can see how much the top 2 branches have grown since.more evident on some..

 

[Max]

Hopefully this time nxt yr I will b tearing this shed down and building a new one..the room will be 1.5mtrs by 3.2mtrs with a dividing wall I can remove in the event if i run 2 lumateks led fixtures in the future so effectively each room will b 1.5 by 1.6..atm my room is 1.5 x 1:5 but not using a ft at the front as that’s for the finned heater ,fans and dehuey etc so having an extra ft I will b able to run another 3 plants...my winter grows are pretty much near using the same amount of power as you would with 2 lights running a finned heater so I might aswell run 2 lights through summer and just run 1 room during winter as it would take an considerable amount of power to run the room with the dividing removed..im still running the old 2.7 600w lumatek .there is 2 more they have brought out..the 2.9 and 3.1 which run the Samsung diodes so I won’t b getting that..they are pretty intense than the top bin lumiled and osram diodes.

something to read..
