its bin 6 days since i last posted any pics and what a journey it has bin.To start with the plants slowed right down in growth and i started to worryme for all of about 2 days so i decided to flush them.Bad decision.the plants drooped so bad and i thought i had killed them off. since that little incident i pulled them out of the big white pot they were in with as much care as possible and seperated them into there own 23 cm pots. the4y seem to be thriving at the moment with there own root space so maybe they were killing each other off heres the pics

our grows were started virtually around the same exact time! i started mine one Jan. 1st. not doing soil though. there's a thread in the "Grow Log" section "The Daily Grow w/ Bud Fullotrichs", and one in the "Hydroponics" section "First E & F, how's it lookin vets?"

hey bud u got some really nice crops there i hope u dont mind me leaving a reply i just couldnt help myself. u seem to be a lot further ahead in the way of grow knowledge than i am an gaining experience through stinkyattikis a bonus too. i think i recall splifted an stinky on a thread bout white rhino quite some time agothat was just baffling as im just a noob PEACE ill keep an eye on ur thread man it looks like i could learn suttin:rasta:

basementbotany
01-31-2008, 08:13 PM
that's what the forums are here for. when you have questions, 100's of people know the answers to them. stinkyattic has been my guidline basically throughout my grow. i'm going to try to get my cam. and post some knew pics tonight or tomorrow. this has been my first successful grow, and also first hydro grow. hydro seems to be the way to go for me.

ha.Ive got to admit im a bit of a lazy grower i suppose i have 2 drip irrigation systems but i only tried using it once an decided it too much pissin about. if i was gunna do hydro id have to find a system thats easy to maintain and learn a little bit more about nutrient intake.Iused to know quite a lot but iv smoked much since then my memory is like a sieve,i just go by the basics of soil growing thatt i got from greenmans page nice an easy.did i mention that iv just turned the lights down to 12on12off im moving back up to my old estate and iv only got bout 2anahalf months left to finish my grow. do u have any idea what kind of yield i can expect fr4om five females bout 9inches tall,obviously now iv turned the lights down they are gunna stretch maybe twice the size PEACE ill get back lata gotta go to work for now mate:pimp:

i wouldn't set my expectations too high if i were you. i would say you could probably get a couple ounces from all of them since they were started on 12/12 at such a young age. if you were interested in hydro, the ebb & flow seems to be the easiest to manage. only active components are the water and air pump. read up on it, it's quite simple.

02-04-2008, 08:54 PM
well from the title u can prob guess wat im gonna say :mad:igot a male. and it looks like another ones gonna be a male so this grow might as well be a load of wank.never mind eyy i got a mate just sprouted some white widow so maybe i can give him some of my seeds an let him bring them on with his little babys ill post some pics soon as i get my camera back from my bruvvs cheers for the estimation on yield BB i appreciate it man.just looks like i gonna get less :( but as monty python would say (ALWAYS LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE OF LIFE):rasta:

02-08-2008, 03:54 PM
OUCH! very sorry to hear that. baby that lone female, take a few cuttings, and somewhere down the line she will treat you VERY WELL! another thing you can do is just keep your best male in there with your female and you should have some quality seeds to start your next grow with after the move.

weedos
02-11-2008, 12:30 PM
hey man thanx for the advice.I thought about it but its not worth it, as you know i put them into flower an hairs are popping out of the one left(cuttings are out the question) and i chopped the males the second i noticed the pods(so comtaminating the female with male pollen is out the question aswell).but never mind i got 2 more seeds popped ready to be put under my mh,i just need a place to put them coz me lights on 12/12, dont wanna bud them from seed coz im moving an i wont have nuff tym plus its not beneficial to the plants as they photosynthesize when the light is on hence they wont have enough time to mature in veggie stage an produce quality bud in flower PEACE MAN:hippy:

basementbotany
02-11-2008, 01:29 PM
are you going to be able to transfer them on the move(the new seeedlings)? you can still take clones within the first two weeks of flowering. make sure you cut a whole branch and not just enough of the branch to make a clone. you can do this with little ill effects caused to the plant. even if you can only take one clone, you can make that a mother plants and plant it in soil and take it with you wherever you go. if you do make a mother plant, it will cut down your time on your next crop by a few weeks.

the plants look good.
When you get a camera, make you use the flash, ehhe.

I love that strain. I bought a gram of ak-48 a few weeks back. It was an excellent smoke. Dense dense buds which got me and a few mates completely shitfaced.

Hope your grow turns out well!

It looks like Ca and/or Mg. Do you water with tap or R/O water? You probably need to throw a CalMag-type product to increase your supply.

weedos
02-19-2008, 02:53 PM
hey there gainesvillegreen i got a load of chemicals from a friend b4 he went to lockdown they are dutch company i think house&garden van de zwaan its an a/b (A) contains nitrogen calcium oxide and specific gravity(B) contains nitrogen,phosphoric acid anhydride,potassium oxide and specific gravity WATEVERTHATIs can i use this to recover my sick plant or do i have to invest in something different :hippy:

gainesvillegreen
02-19-2008, 09:59 PM
What type of water do you mix your nutrients with? Do you get it from the tap? Is it distilled, purchased from a store? Do you have a reverse osmosis filter system in your house? Distilled and RO water remove minerals that are needed by your plants. If you use those types of water, you may need an additional supply of Ca and Mg.

weedos
02-20-2008, 04:09 PM
well my water is in an old derip irrigation system distilled so i guess it has got no minerals in it but i thought that was a good thing. so the ferts i have ghot are epsom salts and the ones i mentioned above i was thinkin i had to foliar feed the plaqnt with the E/S is that what i need to do to correct the prob holla bak PEACE :hippy:

gainesvillegreen
02-20-2008, 06:54 PM
Foliar feeding is great for assisting with deficiencies, but not so much with curing them. In addition fo foliar feeding now, you need to use a product like Botanicare's CalMag or Technaflora's MagiCal to add those two into the nutrient solution.

Is there anyway to use tap or well water instead of the distilled? Tap or well water should have the two in it.

Epsom salts is great when diluted and applied to the foliage for Mg, but not Ca.

weedos
02-21-2008, 09:36 AM
ok then g well ill have to wait for a while as i get payed on fridayan ill ave to get it off the net the leaves on the top of the plant are a bit yellow so i will foliar spray with some epsom salts for now and keep feeding her her basic food. my mate has a water butt in his garden which has accumilated water over winter so ill ask him to splash me a few bottles to mix my solution up with.the tap- water is kinda white around here so i dont know if its any good the signs have slowed down aswel the leaves are not getting any worse jsut a little bit yellow :hippy:

well this is how it is so far. the def has stopped but has affected
a lot of leafs so she doesn't look the best,the buds are covered with trichomes (shame my cam is shit) and seem to be rather slow in growth but slowly an surely they are gettin bigger im surprised at the way the pics came out wid my cam coz in real life this plant doesnt look as good as they do here its now 24 days into flower from the day i turned the lights down to 12/12 i dont know if she ias the right size for her age so i would be glad for sum comment on her.i changed the nutes i was using dont know if it was a good idea or bad but i didnt have nuff wedge to get cal/mag so i used something else called canna flores and repotted into bigger pot as the roots when in pulled her out were brownish colour and were cramped for space. she lookes like she is recovering from her ordeal. oh also before i forget i stopped using distilled water and just ph'ed the tap water then watered with that insteadthanx for that advice gainesvillegreen shout out to basement botanyheres sum pics for you an anyone else who wants to c as i said further up this post the def has stopped but it ruined a lot of the leafs ill post sum more pics when things get more exiting PEACEOUT :hippy:

hi this is the hydro grow i posted a little while after the 1 above but due to no replies i decided to continue my grow on this log
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
right then this is my first time using hydrophonics.
so ive only planted one plant to saee how it turns out,well its actually a clone from my last grow with ak48 it didnt turn out very well thou8gh due to a def i couldnt work out but thanks to gainesville green i found it was a calcium def shame the plant was too far gone,caught the clone in time though so it should be ok.i also have 2 more planted in soil one a shrivelling wreck and ones a retard its got like 2 fingers on some leaves so i callit that.now then,i have an aquafarm system dip irrigation the PH is 6.0 and EC is twelve after ferts.oh before i forget i am using substra vega and canna flores for my grow it says use 400ml each of parts A/B with 100litres of water.so i only have bout a 10 litre resivoir so take a 0 off the 400ml and 100litres would be 40-ml in 10 litres of water.im only using 10ml at the moment a quarter of the recommended dosage till the clone gets a little bit bigger.the lights are on 18/6 at the moment heres some pics http://img131.imageshack.us/img131/4...0014mj0.th.jpg
heres the clone
http://img177.imageshack.us/img177/8...0008zw7.th.jpg this is the retard
http://img142.imageshack.us/img142/7...0015jw2.th.jpg this the shrivelled up one.
it hasd caused nothing but problems growing in soil but i thought ill try it one last time coz hydro crops look bangin any advice and comments welcome

hey herb the question i was asking was how to get pics up on this thread but i found out how to with the search icon at the top of the page thanx for the interest in helping me though and are you a hydro grower maybe you could gime some insight into growing hydro as thiis is my first time. im a smoker of thisd wicked crop so im lazy at times and the aqua farm is really easy to use i need some basic pointers if anyone can help





ha ha

-------

now then my plant has grown very little in the hydro due to the fact i had problems with the new timer my mate got for me.It didnt seem a problem an seemed to be workin fine but i didnt check to see,until today. the timer has been off for three days and what still ceises to amaze me is the plant is really dark on the leaves and looks healthier than all the other plants i have grown,WEIRD. Nywaze i have sorted the timer and it is running three times a say,once when the lights come on,once at midday(according to the timer)and once about half an hour before the lights turn off.The pump runs for half an hour at a time,is this correct because im not sure,guess ill have to wait for a few days to see how the plant reacts.ok so iv covered the timer,how the plants growin,OH YES the plant that im growin in soil WOW this bitch has grown like wildfire,shes like the plant of all plants,the day of the triffids,the little shop of horrors even.its just amazin and the best part of all thanks to basementbotany is that i persuaded my mom(so embarrasin)not to move back to our old estate so i got as long as i like to grow this crop wehey.the lights are on 18 hours and she stinks to high heaven.i got nothing but trust in this crop it seems to be a whopper and does anybody have any idea on yield for
strain/type:ak48/indica
height:4ft
age:1month
hours:18/6
mainshoots:4
how much bigger do you think this plant will grow if i turned the lights down to 12/12 because one plant that i grew b4 grew lik 2and half times her original size and ended up like 6ft,i had to tie the top down.well thats it for now and ill post sum pics soon as i get my cam back which will props be tuesday.

to grow tall but without stretching so i can get the max yield.
iv LSTed this baby as you might see from the pics.when i put it into flower i would like as many main colas as i can get.I had a grow done in soil about a year ago which grow like 5 1/2 ft tall with 5 main colas each were like 3ft long kinda like donkeys diks.
i cant say how much there was but lets just say 5 3ft long buds that were 2 1/2 inches wide im guessing four five ounces.Can i get that from this plant or am i gonna have to get a sativa strain to achieve thaat :S5:
