Mephisto Genetics Nebula Grow Journal - an 8x4 full of Mephistos

One plant per cob is the ultimate set up in my opinion bro. Seems like a happy arrangement

Cobs are the shit! Takes a couple days for the plants to adjust and then they have taken off. With reflectors I have them set between 28"-32" and that has got the ladies praying to the white lights

50 gal tub [HASHTAG]#1[/HASHTAG] under the autocobs, all Skylar Whites
The largest plant is 28ish days I believe? other 2 are at 15 days




50 gal tub [HASHTAG]#2[/HASHTAG] under hps
all plants are just about 3 weeks in this tub. One each Skylar White, 3BOG, Sour Stomper
for being the smallest plant the SS def smells strongest--- of nice fruity sweetness
This tub took a beating early on. They were literally smashed by the cat and also dealt with some heat issues before the ac install


Made a tea three days ago with the Bu's Compost Tea and a few added ingredients. Some kelp meal and a handful of ewc, and a little fish hydrolysate.
Plants responded well so far to the foliar which did have me worried. Sprayed at a 4:1 water to tea and right before lights out.
Will be doing an IPM spray tomorrow which I will implement every 3 days or so as long as plants respond well. Got some gnats that need to die before they get out of control

How's it goin my Nuggs and Nuggarettes :smoking:

I am in the process of making up a batch of soil for a few new plants. I culled a couple runts and will be moving out the photos in the tent, giving me space for 2 or 3 new plants. I am waiting on some moonstone portals and also have the new mephisto beans to think about. If the moonstone seeds don't arrive soon I will drop a few mephistos in the new mix I am making up.

I had a few questions while I put the new mix together. What would be an acceptable source of bagged EWC? I had a local source but they seem to have disappeared of the face of the earth....

I am preparing a mix with some manure, possibly both horse and cow manure already aged and composted. I am going to pick some up from the farm this weekend. Do I really need the ewc or is the manure got enough for the humus element of an organic soil? The new soil mix I am trying is going to have less amendments and more humus. Some source of ewc should be added in my mind.

The plan is to start in a light soil mix in solo cups while the soil cooks and give it a good month. So I guess it's Sour Livers and NCH? And an MBAP why not

Another day under the auto cobs
Another day of nice growth

Some new pics of the Skylar Whites

Top view of autocobs doing business as usual


Skylar [HASHTAG]#4[/HASHTAG] branching out and feeling the cob love. Not much height yet at 22 days but that's probably due to heat conditions which are now fixed. Sitting nicely at 74 to 77 F during the day time


Sour Stomper [HASHTAG]#2[/HASHTAG] with cilantro, adjusting nicely with the cob 30" above. Cilantro...cinco de mayo in three days....home made salsa?


Sour Stomper [HASHTAG]#1[/HASHTAG] not much branching at all but she's starting to grow taller the last few days. And damn does she smell good for her size and having just started showing flowers. Really nice smell. Reeeeeaaallly nice


This weekend I am dropping a couple new beans. NCH for sure and undecided for the other one or two. MBAP and Sour livers I am thinking about. All three if I get creative and find room!

Oh yeah, I forgot about this gal. 3 Bear's OG. Some number of days old, 10 maybe LOL In one of my finer stoner moments I took her out of the tent friday for a little cleaning. Put under the T5 fixture in the closet, which was off.
Sunday morning I realized where I had left her. Looking happy today! She's thinking damn wtf! Don't do that again!


This is Skylar White [HASHTAG]#5[/HASHTAG]. Because why not. 4 wasn't enough apparently.
Starting to bush up a little and smelling nice, fruity and sweet I'd say. Less pungent than the SS

 

[Hippy_BiotabsF70]

Looking real good in here brother! Some serious praying to the cob gods going on there! Awesome

Haha you massive stoner lunch out mate! Leaving your poor little 3BOG in a dark closet you evil man! Even I haven't done anything that stoner yet! Oh hang on, yes I have, I completely beheaded my SODK!

So awesome to see everyone that gets cobs experiencing amazing growth soon after

 

[Hippy_BiotabsF70]

They couldn't really pray any more than they are dude!

It's tea time!

The brew of the week:


The recipe:


5 gal bucket - 1/2 cup neem cake, 1/4 cup kelp meal, 1/4 cup crab meal and a dash of recharge. All combined into a fistful of EWC from the bottom of the worm bin

The goal of the tea is to keep feeding the microbes and adding to the soil life, while providing some element of IPM. Hopefully the soil drench takes out the fungus gnats before they get out of hand.
The Crab Meal provides good source of Ca and N and also has Chitins which help a plants defense mechanism ramp up, a preventative measure to fight off disease and infection
Neem Cake of course for IPM as well as many nutrients and micronutrients

The gals today
Tub [HASHTAG]#1[/HASHTAG] under the autocobs


Tub [HASHTAG]#2[/HASHTAG] under the HPS


Skylar [HASHTAG]#1[/HASHTAG] Day 30, now at 16" and thriving under the cobs
up close and personal About double the height of the other plants in the tent, most of which are 7-10 days behind.

Mate someone's left two bath tubs in your tent!

Looking amazing mate. I quite fancy the idea of an autotub
