MasterKush x nl5 (seeded)

Ok the root mass has started to almost "tighten" into a bulb(not as loose and airy but NOT bound). First should i care. Second if i care is it ok to "loosen" the bulb by trying to seperate it a bit by hand. Shes starting her third week of flower. Water temps day 68-72 night 65-69. PH has been at 5.4-5.9.

I would not worry unless the plants look effected by it. Everything sounds good. Are they still mostly white like normal ? If you do loosen then you will damage some. However, on one of my grows Zandor had me cut the roots on one plant of six back to just two inches hanging in the water. It may of slowed the growth by 3 to 5 days. Yield was still as good on that plant, just a little behind. I did it just to show you could cut off root rot and not badly effect the plant.

Very true Loc NAR, you can trim the lower roots with only a minor delay in the over all growth. Your if I remember correctly was a sog or at least a smaller plant; I could be wrong.

And the yield was the same as the others, but was the quality also the same? It should have been just a touch better due to the fact that trimming those roots allowed more air and more nutrient uptake.

Well that's the idea anyway.

Thanks guys, ill check it agian on solution changing day. With Liquid Karma or cal/mag plus do they stain the roots? They are still white, but with a lite tint since i put the 2 additivives last week.

Yea you got a little tint with additives sometimes. Qaulity was as good or better big Z. It was a smaller plant but the extra few days got me a yield as big as one half as much bigger.

Man they are dragging thier feet because the DA has to approve what a Judge sighns. What's up with that ? I thought I was free and now I'm calling twice a week to find out something. If nothing today I'm going to tell them to put me on the monthly thing again. OR she said I could call every 3 months and not pay anything. I'm in redneck limbo hell, somebody help me please. LOL

I feel like Jerry Clouwer (old redneck comic) up a tree with a wild cat hunting. He tells his friend john to shoot the wild cat but Johns afraid he might hit Jerry. Jerry says just shoot John, I don't care who you hit one of us has to have some relief. LOL

Thanks for caring. Hope things go well. Keep us posted.

Thanks man, I will keep calling. I just called and no pappers today. My probation officer wants me cut loose. I can call tuesday and thursdays. She doesn't know why a DA has to be involved either. All my fines are paid and it's not worth keeping me for minor violation. One piss test cost them 3 month of probation cost.

Cali, dreaming. maybe in a few months. Look out west coast.

Oh, What's a good area to look for house out there ? I been looking at Sacramento ? It's just for me and what I do. Maybe a late partner ,if you know what I mean. LOL

I don't know much about the northern part. I am up in the mountains of Socal my self but unless you have major bank stay out of silicone valley I do know that is major money as is most parts of SF.

I do know rent up here is like less then a grand but work is not easy to find.

Thanks man. That would work for me. I got family around LA and Oceanside. I just want to be out of the way. No one much to bother me. If you know what I mean. LOL. I would be mostly home repair and that kind of stuff. I can get good satilite tv going for free but only for friends. If it rains down out of the sky it's mine. At least that's what the FCC says. LOL

Well then up here about 1/2 way up the mountain to Big Bear is snow's but not to much so, the air is clean it's above the smog line 95% of the time. There are many areas where you can be the only person living on a street or in an area. Most of the homes up here are vacation homes and they come up at most 6 times a year. It's quit and cool summers compared to the rest of the area.

Great place to retire and relax if you know what I mean. Mind your own business and I have found others do the same.

Plants grow great at 5000 feet too BTW but indoors is safe for the most part as anywhere else. If it's too big they seam to find you but personal grows seam to be more hard to find. I know of a couple personal grows that are doing fine. Farmer Bob from my show is living about 8 miles away. I still am not growing but making friends up here is easy and the club supplies are really good. Pricey but pretty good just the same.

The freeway system will take you anywhere if you have the time to sit in traffic that is.

Well you can search online and see what is around.

Good luck dude this will end soon for you.
