Man Eater - ScrOG - FFOF - 400w HPS 1
#744268 - 08/17/14 08:05 PM (10 years, 4 months ago) |

Another day, another Man Eater grow log.
Strain: Man Eater Grow Medium: Fox Farms' Ocean Forest (5 gallons) Light Source/Wattage: 400w HPS Veg/Flower cycles : 18/6 Veg 12/12 Flower Temps (Fahrenheit): High 70's, reaching 80 at times, should cool down soon with fall closing in.
The usual Fox Farms lineup will be used for flowering:
-Tiger Bloom -Cha-Ching -Beastie Bloomz
(No Grow Big has been needed, as it exploded in growth, filling the screen before the Ocean Forest was exhausted of nutrients.)
This plant is a clone of Man Eater #1 from this grow. It was the heaviest yielder, gave more purples and reds at maturity, and caused plenty of sativa-related freakouts amongst lightweights and regular indica smokers. (Potent as fuck.)
After vegging for two weeks(from clone), it has filled the 7.5 sq ft screen.
So, without further distraction, let's get this log going.
Flowering Day 10Pics in regular lighting will come next time. Flowering Day 30Flowering Day 36Flowering Day 43Flowering Day 57Main Flushing DayFlowering Day 63HarvestAfter about 5 days with only clean water, then another 6 after the flush, she's chopped! Final Dry Weight: 105g of pure insanity. Pics to come!

It's a strain that I bred and sell to the clubs along with these
Sweet 16--Mikado X Sweet Tooth #3 (I've had this one out for a while now) Cannibal--OG Kush x Chem Dawg Man Eater--Green Crack x Sour Diesel Gina--Sweet 16 X GDP x Trainwreck Purple Monster--Purple Kush x GDP x Purple Erkle X Mendocino Purps

Nice man, I haven't smoked any Man Eater in months now, and it definitely ranks as my fav. strain so far, so I'm eager to get a nice pile of it again.
Tried to get a few pics that while the HPS was off, they turned out pretty shitty but I put up a few. (Someday I'll get a decent camera.)
Pics in the OP.

Sheesh I'd be a little bummed if I only got 4 oz! I got 6oz from the last grow, and I'm hoping for 8oz this time.
Last grow, both plants were terribly rootbound, weren't trained perfectly, I never ph'd the feedings once, and they got scorched by the light.
This time, it's 1 plant, (the yielder at that) 3 weeks veg time for plenty of root space, scrogged, every feeding has been ph'd, and the screen is well below the maximum height of the light, so it should come out even better than last time!
That looks nice, I gave a clone to a neighbor and they are growing it outdoors, (scrogging as well) so I'll see if I can get his permission to put some pics of it up on here. Before now, I'd never seen Man Eater in an outdoor setting.

Thats pretty good, up until the last Man Eater grow, I only got 2ozs maximum. I'd just hate to get only 4 after dropping money on soil, nutes, R/O water, temp control and electricity, work involved, risk, etc.
I'd say veg time really depends on a lot of things, for this setup and this very clone of Man Eater, 3 weeks is about the maximum veg time before things would get unruly in the screen once the flower stretch comes in.
I wouldn't know about supercropping. This clone was topped, giving 3 tops that were tied down for about a week, then trained through the screen, trying to fill up every square along the way until a little under half of the screen was filled, then flipped to flower to fill the screen.
The last time I counted, there were well over 100 tops in the screen. (Stopped counting after a while.) So I would recommend ScrOGing your plants, even if you can outdoors. (As long as plant count is low, I think it'd be pretty tough to perfectly train a large number of plants through screens.)

Thanks More pics added to the OP, and I found my much less shitty camera so the pics are actually not that bad this time! If anyone could give any input on the way the very tips of the leaves are curled up and some crispy, it'd be greatly appreciated. The pH shouldn't be off but I haven't checked the runoff lately.

Top city holy shit haha. Nice grow man, the way your trained it to have like 100 tops is awesome! I'd normally say adjust your pH but you said your pH levels are alright. Maybe check pH of runoff...peat mixtures can get acidic over time. Could possibly be a burn but not definitely. What's your ppm when you nute? How often do you feed?
You could try flushing it now with pH'd water. Hawk once told me he flushes half way through flower every grow anyways so I guess you could try the same.

High nutrient levels usually cause this If this is the case they must be pretty high cause Man Eater is one of the strains I've bred that can take a pretty high nutrient level.

Lol that face ^ is perfect.
This is what the past 2 feedings have been: 1/4 - 1/2 strength Grow Big (depending on yellowing) 1 tbsp blackstrap molasses per gallon. A little over full strength Beastie Bloomz to make up for having no Tiger Bloom (For 3 gallons of water, I use 3 1/4 tsp and then 1 extra 1/8th tsp)
I think I'll give it a good flush, and then start off fresh without exceeding the max. amounts for anything and see how that goes.

I never check ppm after adding nutes, only before to make sure the water is R/O, I figured it wasn't relevant to a soil grow.
I've also been feeding with every watering, and just lately read that that wasn't common practice, so I might back off a bit on that too. Makes sense that clean water occasionally would help prevent buildup.

Actually it's more relevant then hydro which I know sounds funny but you guys water soil with solutions that are as strong as used in hydro. When a salt build up or overfeeding occurs with hydro it's a matter of dumping the solution and running the pumps with plain water. With soil you gotta flush and that process alone is shocking enough on the plants let alone the problem that got you there.

Why are you feeding with grow big in flower? Also yes definitely nute at most every other watering. TSB will surely happen if you nute every water

About 2 weeks ago, there was some pretty vicious yellowing, (I had completely omitted Grow Big up until that point.) so I decided to give it light to medium dosages 2 or 3 times instead of just full strength, balls-to-the-wall dosage right away.

I guess the reasoning for my original thinking was that the ppm checking was more for knowing what it was before feeding, so one could know when the reservoir/bucket/etc. needed a top off with fresh water to dilute it back down after a few days of the plant taking up water faster than it's taking up nutrients.
Kind of like, I just thought knowing the ppm of a nutrient solution intended for soil (even though it's just as strong as one for hydro) wouldn't help much further than just confirming how many cc's of liquid fert. was added. But I think I get it now.
High ppm regularly = salty solution regularly = eventual heavy salt buildup = shitload of future issues
Time to flush and break out the meter.

Good idea. And yellowing is normal in flowering, but not normal for how early you're in it. Yeah not using grow big during veg was why you gor yellowing so early. Magash uses a 50/50 mix of his veg and flower nute the first couple weeks of flowering. You probably should have done the same but I guess at this point there's no changing it. Yeah I'd say flush and then just carry on, but use tiger bloom during flower lol.

Thanks all! Even if the yield isn't what it was last time, the bud itself looks so much better than the last time I grew it. (And it looked great then.) MUCH less stress this time around, still not stress-free but I'm working on it.
I don't see what's so difficult to understand about using extra soluble flowering nutrient to make up for not having any liquid flowering nutrient. I mean, am I missing something big here?
Sure they're different, but they're both ferts that are high in Potassium and Phosphorus. Once I ran out of Tiger Bloom, I was already feeding 3/4 strength Beastie Bloomz so I just bumped it up to full to make up for the other lost P-K from the lack of Tiger Bloom. When Beastie Bloomz' time was up on the feeding chart, I just switched to using a tad extra Cha-Ching.

It honestly look like it could easily yield 8+ OZ with how much the buds are going to fatten up during the 2 week flush. Lean in, rub one of the buds with your finger and describe what you smell, it must smell divine
