Well, since GaGrown is down South,
Summertime = Creepy, Crawly, Critters
What's been in my grow area lately? Centipedes, earwigs, asst. spiders, roaches, the ever present fungus gnats, and a few unidentified denizens. Solitary lady growers, beware, you gotta learn to kill the bugs. I'm thankful for what I don't have, at least in the grow room. (snakes, rats, mold, most plant eating bugs).
I agree with GaGrown. Gotta go for preventative maintenance, especially in summer.
Hey, Ga, I hear we now have to be concerned with escaped, "maneating Burmese pythons" migrating up from FL.:eek:

Hey Crabby..
If you have that type phobia of pesticides then these strips are for you! They are odorless... veg oil is not the active killer. Get a couple and put them in an out building and see what happens... Do a couple of tests with them. Ventilation would cure any fumes you my be wary of.. Just a thought!

I may be able to get the cuts that I had orriginally planned on. If not I'll plant some of the beans I have onhand.. Most of those are indica or afgahn..

excellent, sounds good, i have an ac in my room and just have a fan sucking the ac from the window over to the fan intake on my door, works great, temps stay around 82-84F which was really difficult to achieve as I have about 11 cfls in there. Do you have the fan blow directly on the plants at all or just for air movement in general. I have mine osilate or w.e lol so the stem gets nice and strong, but I guess since your gonna take cuttings you dont want them to get to tough. Looks good, I just took some new pics of my buds, they look like candy to me.

nice. I attempted cloning a few cuts, didnt work, after a week, no roots whatsoever, and the part of the stem that I scarified and put in the rootinlg hormone swelled up, got really brittle, so i dried the tops as she was in flower about 3 weeks and smoked em, got a buzz. I think if I had put them under 18/6 or 24/0 they would have rooted, oh well, live and learn.

I put a flo light on mine 24/7 and leave the timer set at 18 hours per day for my 600 watter that is on my mama plant.. So they are running together for 18 hrs. When it goes off the flo will stay on.

I mean the one finger thing. You say that promotes root production? I trim all my leaves on my clones too, but i cut em in half, i don't remove whole fingers.
But it occured to me that they don't look like cannabis clones with only one finger per leaf and that would be a great cover if you needed to transport them stealth style.

I just got back in town and went to check how things were going.. I have 4 cuttings that are a day or so from showing that they rooted.. I lost 2 that were in a jiffy peat pellet. I HATE THOSE! I went back to the way I know works! Thank's for the reminder,Pimp! I am transplanting all of them that have rooted into 1 gallon pots.. When the oter 4 show roots,into gallon pots they go,too! Then I can get on with the vegging process.. I took some pics. I'll add them to my album and post a thread with them.. That mama plant has taken off! I accually had to raise the light.. Peace everyone!

Not quite 80 deg. 2nd pic is the dead zone. 3rd pic roots on one plant. 4th pic roots out of the bottom of another plant.. They look like Hell,I know...

Here are the others. I think everythangs gonna be alright! Mama plant looks good. I'll bud her and revege.. Gotta keep this plant... I love the stature of this Big Bud... That 600 watter keeps her low. The plants you grow has to have every bit to do with the room you have to work with...I've never grown Big Bud before. I think I like it! Smoked a bunch of it!! The buds on these plants will be better than average with the light they will get. 2 600's?? Come on.. It's got to be better than trying to grow a sativa,huh?

This isn't to hijack your thread but this mix is about to go 12/12 so timeline wise we are about the same.
The PWR is: purple urkle, trainwreck, romulan
Mix picture is mostly Affi x Lowryder on the back row and the front right is an accidental cross of some great genetics Skunk#1, Affi, Durban male and the fem was blueberry, white rhino, peak19 & AK47.

Well.... these 4 won't ever have roots!!! I pulled the soil apart and the stems were mushy.. They are lush and green too.. That's 6 dead so far... Leads me to believe that it's time for a new bottle of rooting hormones.. I've had that bottle 3 or 4 years.. So Yeah! That would be the problem,I think.. I'll post pics of what they look like.. I've never had this trouble ever.. I've always had a pretty good rooting percentage...

I'm about to take 8-10 cuttings tonight.. No peat pellets!! New Hormones.. I'm gonna use 2 600's so I have the light for more than 7 plants.. Gonna do a buddy a favor and give him one to use as a mama... That will leave me with 7.. I would feel better about my efforts with 12-14 plants.. Not to mention weight.. It might have to last me a while. I wanna move.Buy a house!!!!!! I will post pics of the other cuttings and the ones I'm about to cut.. Hope this goes better than the last try.. Live and learn,huh?

Just took 8 new cuttings.. Here are some pics that cover most of what I did.. I do ahve a question,though.. Will the placement of the tray be alright with 16 hours of light and a heating pad under them? I've never used any other light except my 2x2 flo light and burned it 24/7.

I took 4 more cuttings on the 20th,for a total of 12 more.. I gave a buddy of mine 3 cutting that had taken root..He'll pay the favor back! Great Friend!!:thumbsup: That left me with 5 cuttings and Mama plant. She is getting big,too.. I added a light over the dome so they would get 24 hrs. of light.. Just a matter of security for, me.. I like to know they have light all the time..I've taken pics and video of progress since my last entry.. I'll post those as well. There are more pics I'll add to my albums.. Things are lookin' better than they have in the past few weeks.. Hard work will pay off in the end!

Ok here is the pics of the plants now. I have both lights going. I had to add a 10 inch passive intake and a grill on the exhaust port. I have the temps at 78 to 82 lights on.:thumbsup:!!!!They are thriving!!!! Can I get a Hell Yeah! I'm gonna add my drip system as soon as I can get the smaller plants to 12-14 inches and then flower.. Sounds like a plan,huh? Oh yeah.... I added a video,too..

My room is full... I transplanted all,but 2 plants. Ran outta potting mix..I'll get some today and transplant those 2. Those girls are loving those lights and temps,too! Freakin' stalks are huge.! I took a bunch of pics awhile ago.. I'm gonna upload those when I get up.. Made a couple of videos,too.. I'll add those to my uploaded videos.. Then upload the still pics I took.. They are really taking off! Got some of my drip system done too.In about a week -10 days I'll be switching to 12/12..These are gonna be some nice buds too. The nodes are very close together,so it won't take long for them to cover the stems....They gonna be long,too and with the light they are gettin', gonna be dense and dank!:thumbsup:

I switched the lights back to 12/12.. I've been having to go on short out of town trips,for work.. I thought it would be in my best interest to go ahead and flower.. The room is full! Plants are looking great except for my mama plant. Had a dripper that was bad... When the lights come on I'll go take a few pics.. Here is what they were looking like on the 20th when I started to flower..:jointsmile: Can't wait!! Gonna be some Halloween Bud! Evil,Wicked,Mean and Nasty!

I came home from a weeklong work assignment once and had a clogged return hose on a hydro set up, a clay pebble floated into the drain. Lost that plant and had a big mess on the floor from the overflow.
Using soil now and have to go to Canada for a week soon with 6 ladies in full flower, maybe will have to try these watering globes.

Yeah,Hemp! I know that was a real BUMMER! One plant is alot! Especially when it's flowering,huh? Well I was gone for a few days and need to update ya'll.. Mama plant is flowering nicely,but still looks like it's got necrosis.. I even let her dry out and water one side of the bag. just trying something,there.. My lights come on at 7pm so it's gonna be a few before I can get some pics. The smaller plants have caught the older ones ,some even outgrew them.. They look like they'll be nice and dense... Time will tell!! Got 5 more weeks or so..I started them on Sept.21st.. I'll be back around about 7ish.....Peace!

I am looking for a good PH pen so I can balance my nutes, pretty sure when most plants do great with a certain soil mix or feed mix and one oddball doesn't do well its genetic sensitive to PH.
I have had some stuff stay dark green all the way through with water only for the last month and all the other plants have necrosis.

I don't use a pen.. I just use ferts at 1/4 the dose.. I still flush them a week before harvest.. Something bout the taste of it. The ferts that is..Weed tastes better when this procedure is done.. Just that odd-ball plant with necrosis,with me too! I've tried to help her to no avail.Peace to ya Hemp!

I never did go digital...Very happy with my 600WATT Hydrofarm PowerHouse though...A 600Watt light is said to be the most efficient and I agree...Comparing a 1000WATT light to 2 600's is like comparing the spread of a single barrel shotgun to a Beverly Hillbilly's double barrel pinball shooter,lol!!!

It was a comparison between 1 600 watter and 1 1000kw light.. No Way 1 1000 watter will outshine 2 600's.!

I had to leave and start a new job out of town.. I had been gone for about 4 days and would not had been home to harvest,so I called my son to take care of the harvest and and he did just that. He took all me equipment down like I asked him and packed all of it totes.. Put the totes on the back of his truck,to be taken to storage building, and went home. One of his buddys was peepin in the boxes while he was inside and later that night he came back and stole my shit! I guess he thought all of it was my sons equipment. Needless to say.... He got his ass whooped!!!!!! My boy tore that ass up! I have since bought new stuff and only got back a few of the older items I had. Timers, t-stats and a fan.. That lil' SOB cost me a couple grand in equipment!:mad: I'm up and running again...:thumbsup: ... Got Big Bud growing now.. It is so very nice to have a person keeping this strain going! Got a Mama plant from him and took cuttings.. They are really looking good,too! I've added a 1000 watter and a mover, With a vented reflector.. As soon as I get pics and video made,I'll be sure and post them. I appologize to all that had followed the grow thread! I'm back and better than ever!:jointsmile:
