Indoor Testing the eazyplug pyramid mini.

[The Iconoclast]

Final result was 3.25oz for the two purples BPP's and 4.75 from the pink one. All three have a very springy light texture, that remains the same all the way through the bud, would probably be great to roll, but it's also excellent to vape, fruity for the purples ones and a strong diesel terp for the pink one with berry undertones. Small yielder, spectacular looker.

Next up the Blackberry Gums, and the Northern Lights in small pyramids.

The Northern Lights that was replaced due to mutation ended up a bit confused about whether she was in fact a lady.



Returned 1.5oz of very nice bud, bright orange hairs, complex aroma, floral and spicy with a hint of skunk. It caused me to plant a large pyramid, although it probably will be a different phenotypes.

The Blackberry Gum pair was a very different story, one of them was the same 13" size as the Northern Lights producing dense resin filled buds, floral no spice. But the other one which you might remember taking off, really went to town and grew to 32in in a mini pyramid! I had a lot of trouble growing it due to it drying out so fast which it did a few time, I had to give her a pruning just to help her cope. Well in a huge turn of events it ended up produced 3oz of dense resiny high quality buds, lemony and spicy and delicious. I even ran an eighth through my Slug.33 Fat Mac for one of the sweetest resins I've made, vaping it instantly took me back 50 years in the past smoking some spicy Lebanese hash using a makeshift pipe using a matchbox and some tinfoil.

Planned on three beans again. one popped up early and pushed her way out, she did not look good, the other two came up normally, so I popped a replacement bean, however the early sprout fully recovered even though the initial leaves looked burned. So now I have four Jedi Kush the replacement bean has turned out to be a very special phenotype that probably would not have gotten another big pyramid had it not been for the bean that almost didn't.

All four have been topped and I have done some very aggressive defoliation on the ones that look just too chunky to deal with. Notabley the late addition bean needs no work at all, it is getting nicely spaced internodes. Spoiler alert, she is the best one.

Nearly caught up. Decided to get some new lights the Viparspectra xs1500, they are so good I got four, the price was irresistible, the last one only cost $70.
here are the Jedi Kush with 2 QB96 and a couple of other bits and bobs,

then I had one xs1500 in the middle.

then a 2nd xs1500 with one QB in the middle.

Plenty of defoliation for these

@Dankerson, thanks for the rep, man. This grow really got away from me, gonna try and keep on top of things going forward.

Got my final two bad boys set up. 4 x 150W. these lights are super awesome. I was using 550W before, and now I'm using 400W and I have more light that's more useful. I am still experimenting with positioning. They are so easy to hang in different ways. Running them at 2/3rds capacity and it' more than enough.

Here they are lighting up everything including my next 4 pyramids, plus two new mini pyramids, another Northern Lights and an Orange Cookies.

I am now taking more care with the pyramids, they are so forgiving that it's easy to let them get to 4000 ppm, now I'm fertigating them three times a day with runoff, I catch the runoff and put it back in the bucket then dilute it and add more nutes if necessary, to keep the ppm steady. Seems to be working better.

The replacement Jedi Kush that is the fourth one turned out to be an amazingly special phenotype. Tall and chunky with sparse leaves, just how I like my girls.

 

[The Iconoclast]

These are nearly 3 weeks old using my new watering method on these two plus my new set of 4 pyramids. The Orange Cooking has strange long droopy leaves and everything looks delicate and tiny, little shrivelled looking shoots, but she is growing on time, so that's ok. Had to put her in the shady part as she was a bit lemony coloured. The Northern Lights on the other hand is robust and broad leafed.

I have evolved the way I water these and now I'm watering them like coco except that I am giving them more runoff and also reusing the runoff. So I have a 9L bucket and I will mix up say a 1200ppm solution, the entire bucket will go into the four plants and I might collect 6L of run off which gets topped back up to 9L then I correct the ppm back up to 1200, or dilute it further depending on what it is.

I'm wondering if the algae that gets washed into the water and then gets inside the plug if it would then act like fertiliser due to no light.

It's a lot of work but very satisfying.

So my night owls didn't come so this next grow was meant to be 4 super lemon haze, but due to some bad beans that didn't germinate, I now have 2 x super lemon haze, and a Terp Treez, Tre Lime Sorbet, which is usually a large plant, and another Double Seeds Northern Lights, so one in a big pyramid and one in a small pyramid, it's currently my favourite terps, I am very partial to a floral spicy bouquet.

Right I am finally all caught up.

I think i am seeing in my grow what you refer to as POS seeds. Of 6 outdoor and 2 indoor i am seeing 2 that although they are progressing fine are about half the size of the others at 2 weeks, all externals the same. A couple of the autos just seem very DUD-like if that makes sense. Like lighting a firecracker to just have it fizzle out..

My main criterion for me regarding how I approach dodgy beans is whether they are running to schedule, as long as they keep up I'm willing to go along. I not only need to see two pairs of leaves at two weeks but I also need to see evidence that the internodes will at least show signs of growth. This became evident with one of the worst looking plants which was one of my banana purple punch, however she kept up the pace and it worked out ok in spite of rubbish leaves. What I learned from that is that plants do not really need many healthy leaves to produce a lot of bud.
