moving on up!

[c of green]

i have been doing the cabinet thing for a grow now and it is coming to an end.coincidently i just got some seeds from nirvana and a freebie 400 watt mh:) what to do what to do?:D so i am going to start at the end of the cab and then on to the room.pictures go from what is finishing (bagseed)to what is starting.(white widow and auroura indica from nirvana):thumbsup:




ps the cab was already taken apart so the plants are in the closet for now.it will become my veg when the WW are ready to flower....4 or 5 more weeks

[budnums]

that pic to the far right is bagseed? Nice! What was your lighting for the bagseed?

[TheGreenFog]

Congrats on the move! Excellent. :D

RastafarI. :rasta:

[jamstigator]

Nice looking bagseed buds there! Hope your Nirvana seeds treat you that well too! ;)

[c of green]

yea it was bagseed.grown under 70 watt hps and 4 cfls.cheap ass dirt and peters nutes.For this grow i cant decide on earth juice or general hydro\foxfarm or a perlite vermiculite mix.........suggestions?

[jamstigator]

I like FoxFarm, but I haven't tried anything else, so take that with a grain of salt. Still, the reason I haven't tried anything else is because I've been very happy with how FoxFarm products have treated me, so that says something at least.

[c of green]

the kids are growing up.most are starting their 4th node...however one is growing faster on one side then the other and most of them have twisted leaves:( (don't know if these are a big deal as i have never had this happen with my bagseed)speaking of bagseed:D ........i am cutting the one with the yellow leaves here in the next few days.unfortunately when i transplanted them i put them in dirt with ferts in it!!!didn't realize until i toked yesterday and it tasted like shit.....chemmy as hell.so i go check and sure anough fert dirt.so the one with yellow leaves comes down soon and i cant have her all chemy so what do i do i pull her up and put her in a bubbler..now she better flush herself!:pimp:

Same hear i use for farm go big HYDROPINIC ferts its working great so far my plants are 2 weeks 3 days and huge

[stinkyattic]

yea it was bagseed.grown under 70 watt hps and 4 cfls.cheap ass dirt and peters nutes.

LOL!!! Awesome. Please don't tell me it was one of those 70w security lights from home depot...that was my 1st HID too!!!! And I grew my bagseeds using walmart 'sam's choice' tomato food... hee hee. Your results are a lot better than mine were!

If you want to continue on dirt, I can't recommend ENOUGH how awesome a mix of composted manure, humus, and perlite is. Cheap, pH balanced, and GREAT.

[c of green]

yes a 70 watt security lamp..from lowes though not home depot.it was on sale for like 15$ so i had to get one.should have got two.then a few days after i got it i saw them for 8$!!!!

and thanks for the compliment this is the second indoor grow for me though i wouldnt have shown you the first one.4 plants and not even 4 grams of weed.they spent there whole short life on 12\12.....oops:confused: smoked nice though....:dance:

[stinkyattic]

Hang on to that security light for later... mine's been in storage for a couple years and just came out to provide heat/light in the new cloning closet. Works well for that!

[c of green]

i am thinking about using the 70 watter in a little cab for some breeding expieriments.i have a pink sativa that i want to cross with white widow.plus when i get some $$$$ i want to order romulan,nNLxHaze and ak48.has anyone tried nirvanas NLxHaze?depending on finances i may not order from them but if nirvanas NLxHaze comes recommended i may do it regardless of money.anyway i gotta go to work.oh yeah how do you like my reflector?

[c of green]

sorry didn't get this in there in time.....but if i were to buy a ballast kit then would i be able to just put the pieces on a piece of metal or would they need to be secured somehow?:confused:

[stinkyattic]

sorry didn't get this in there in time.....but if i were to buy a ballast kit then would i be able to just put the pieces on a piece of metal or would they need to be secured somehow?:confused:

I'd bolt them to something nonconductive like a thick piece of plastic or fiberglass board. Don't forget to ground them.

Sweet reflector, lol!

[jamstigator]

Haha, that's cool, I never thought about using street signs as reflectors! MacGuyver would be proud of you!

[c of green]

yeah free is my favorite:D

it was a bitch pounding holes in it though.i think i need a drill:)

[c of green]

well got them put under the 400 today and gave them their first food.hopefully they enjoy the hell out of both and grow up into beautiful young ladies:D it gets a little warmer than i would like(only 80 81) so i need to get an active intake from the window.easy enough.i also got the rest of the seeds sprouted they are 1 day out of the dirt.all 10\10 made it this time:D only 7\10 last time.worked out perfect though because i have 17 pots..plan to put them in flower about 2 weeks after the first batch,which i will flower in about 4 weeks probably maybe a little longer maybe shorter all depends on growth.and now on to my question.........if i need to take 3 clones a week how many mothers do i need?


ps i think i am going to get a ballast kit.hopefully soon

[c of green]

well, i am a little disapointed in the MH.it has been 3 days with no measurable growth.:( branches are starting to form but i am still at 5 nodes on everything.i still need 2ish inches of growth before i clone them.i am thinking they may be getting a little rootbound so i am going to get some more potting mix so i can transplant then hopefully they will start growing better.i also had a small bug problem so i unleased the ladybugs and it seems they took care of things.i will probably put some more in there soon to kill any babies that werent born yet.i have a few new pics.it is the older ladies the younger ladies and the future ladies.and yes that is a stuffed plum supervising my girls.:)

[c of green]

and here is some of the plant that i harvested.it was pretty light,around 9 grams.nice smoke though and it flushed pretty well.

[stinkyattic]

well, i am a little disapointed in the MH.it has been 3 days with no measurable growth
Don't fret, just think of the growth UNDERGROUND!!! They could be happily growing roots!!
And it's not uncommon for growth to slow for a couple days when you make a major change in a plant's environment.



.
and yes that is a stuffed plum supervising my girls.:)

You've got to add it to the garden mascot thread!!! :D Very cute!

[c of green]

garden mascot thread has been added to:D

i hope that all it is is a stun from the light change.i am gonna transplant here in a second i bet they are getting a nice rootball going.i will post pics later or tomorrow.depends if i light this joint back up:stoned:

[c of green]

DAMN is it 2:00 yet????:cursing: i want to go play in the garden!!!!!!!i just got some "mylar" blankets from kmart i want to put up plus i want to take pictures plus i got ph down so now i can finally get that worked out.i am around 6.8 now.with a soilless mix and hydro nutes i want a 6.2 ph correct?

anyway i will get it put together and put up some pics here soon

[c of green]

well,here it is.not quite ideal but still doing good.pic 5 is .4grams that is about to meet its maker:D :stoned:

[c of green]

well shit my thread is so liked that i made it to page 2:(

anyway things are doing ok.my bottom leaves are curling and yellowing quite a bit though.they are finally growing again thankfully:D most are on their 7th node. should be taking cuttings here in the next week or so.my flowering goal is the 1st week of december for the first batch and 2ish weeks later for the second batch.fingers are crossed that at least 7 are female.

the auroura indica is proving to be much more vigorous than the white widow.WW seems that it is going to be more of a 1 cola plant while AI seems that it is gonna be a stocky bush.

here are some pics of the current setup.the pots are labled so that you can see the differance between the AI and the WW.there is also a pic of the worst set of bottom leaves.any idea of the problem?

temps top out at 82 degrees farenheight(?) but are typically 78ish,and night temp is 67-71.light is 16 inches from the top of the tallest plant.my ph is a little high.6.8ish,do you think this could be the problem with the leaves?

[c of green]

edit-well itook to long.
the fan is out of a microwave that i found in the garbage.works great. i could lower my light 5 more inches if i wasn't putting my flowering plant under it for "daytime".the light is less than 6 inches away from it with no probs so i will lower the light when i harvest that plant in 4 or 5 more days.i will post a pic of it when she wakes up.And as you can see i already have fixtures hung for side lighting when everyone gets a little taller.for flower i will have the 400 and around 100 watts of cfl over 6ish square foot.(that # may grow depending how well my cloning works out)

oh yeah humidity is around 50 unless it is the day i wateredthen it is around 55 to 58

[stinkyattic]

my ph is a little high.6.8ish,do you think this could be the problem with the leaves?
Your plants look way too healthy to have a pH problem. 6.8 is fiiine.... The leaf problem you're talking about... is that the browning on the really low leaves? I usually just write that off to low light down there and not worry about it. The overall health looks right on track!

[c of green]

that is what i like to hear!!:D
growing inside is so much different that outdoor.half way freaking out about every little thing not knowing if it is horrible or not.it is way more fun being able to interact with them everyday though.

i forgot to add last time an update on the bug problem.(little yellow worm looking things on the bottoms of some leaves*aphids?*)it seems not to be getting worse or better.i put ladybugs in there but still have to kill 2 sometimes 3 a day.i haven't found any today:D :D hopefully they are finally wiped out.:thumbsup:

[stinkyattic]

Those are the larvae of thrips. VERY common. They like to munch especially on the lower leaves. They breed in the soil. Kill them by sprinkling diatomaceous earth over the surface of the soil.

[jamstigator]

'Diatomaceous', damn, you'd think that word would be worth more than 17 points in Scrabble. ;)

[c of green]

yeah that should be ALOT of points.:D thanks for the info stinky i will go down to the garden store to see if they have any.if not will wal mart,lowes or something similar have it?and how much should i sprinkle?how much does it cost?

p.s.should i wait until i have alternating nodes to take cuttings or will it be ok to top the plants now(24ish days old),root the tops and flower them(the clones) after they have a good root system?2 weeks(ish) after i cut them.

[stinkyattic]

DE is pretty cheap. If it isn't in the garden section, there's some on the pool chemicals section too. Just dust a little. I put mine in a spice jar with the sprinkle cap w the little holes in it... works fine, and my plants smell like gaaaaah-lic.

You can take cuttings as soon as your plant is big enough to take the stress.

[c of green]

thanks...if it wasn't raining then i would go get it now.will take cutting when i can leave at least 3 nodes per plant.another few days hopefully.
now for the expert opinion-should i flower the cutting or the plant.(if i give it 10 or so days after i clone it?and of corse it is ready.)
so you know the goal is highest yeild

[stinkyattic]

Make sure the clone 'took' before you flower the donor, or you'll be left with nada.
To be safe I think you should pinch only the very terminal leaf bud, train the plant, and do cuttings from lower side shoots when they develop. Plus you get way more slips to work with, and believe me, first attempts at cloning often meet with failure... and that is my personal non-expert experience! :D
A good clone cutting will have a terminal bud, some growth right around it, and 2 pairs of fan leaves, of which you remove the lower ones so that you can bury at least one node. That's the fastest place for roots. So if you want to leave 5 nodes on the plant, wait until is has 8 to top. Just my advice, everyone clones a little different. Now I have to go home and bleach my ez-cloner!!!! Have a good one!

[c of green]

i would love to do it that way but i am in a hurry now due to the fact that drywall work is slow in the winter(my grow too is supplimental income)

can i see some pics of your cloner.i was planning on"wick and perlite"cloning due to the fact that i have tried the "bubbler" way and had no sucess.

[TheGreenFog]

Those things are lookin' good, man. Keep em healthy! You gonna make a whole room out of those plants? Gonna take you past the winter, IMO. But good luck anyway! :D Keep the pics coming!!

Pssst...I updated my thread...;) LOL. (you already knew that ...shameless plug)

GooD GRoWinG!

[c of green]

see that......you guys get me so distracted that my blooming girl didn't get out of the closet for 1\2 an hour longer than she was suposed to.she is grateful to finally be released from the darkness:D so here are some pics of her

nothing wrong with a shameless plug:D

[c of green]

Yeah fog i did get a later start then i should have and now i have to rush.:( i usually have a way better outdoor and it gets me farther into the winter than this years did.It is my intention to get a perpetual harvest going....maybe 3 plants every few days.What I plan to do is top the older plants....root the tops and while the tops are rooting letting everything else grow.then when i know i have roots i am going to flower either the cutting or the original plant(cant decide yet maybe i will flower some of each just to see what happens.I will probably flower the cutting though.)then when flowering time comes what isnt getting flowered will move to the closet under some cfl.i am hoping that by then i will be able to take cuttings from the younger plants and get them on their way.

Idea-maybe i wont even take cuttings from the second batch due to the fact that i will have potential moms and dads from the first batch so cuttings of them wont be that important.and maybe i will fim some of them just to see the yeild difference....yes yes maybe i will do that:D



EDIT-question....the plants are in veg on 18-6 but sometimes i have to go in the room when the lights are off.so does slight light polution hurt a vegging plant?

[TheGreenFog]

Hey, man. Good luck getting all that straightened out. It hurts my brain to think about all the timing when working with a perpetual harvest system. Cutting, topping, cloning, rooting, vegging, flowering...and how to get it all harmonized...I have a headache... but good luck wiht that.

As far as your light pollution...You shouldn't have to worry too much during veg. But my question is...why are you going in there during dark time? What do you have to do at that time?

I need a toke...to be :stoned:

:D

TGF

[c of green]

well damn i thought of something else i wanted to say
the girls that i have been harvesting were all topped(accidentally,looooong story)about two weeks into flower.just wanted to let people know that even large screw ups are not always enough to ruin a plant.If you do mess up just calm down and take care of them and they will still do pretty damn good.IMO.I can not believe that with all the stresses that these girls went through none of them grew any balls....almost wish the last plant i cut had...would of loved a few seeds from her.she was great!!her high was always good and had no ceiling(?)just smoke and smoke and smoke and get higher with every toke and i never hit the too high mark with her though i do with most all others.even commercial.i almost get a stronger high off of commercial it is just a very dirty one and i find it very unpleasant.i think that i am very sensitive to the chemicals that are more than likely sprayed on them(ferts,pest control,etc.etc)anyway i am done rambling i gotta go take a shower and get ready to go to work.

edit-like today i am gonna make another carbon filter and the fan was in the room so i had to go get it.and i tend to keep $ and other valuables in there since it is the only room i can lock up.

[c of green]

dont you hate it when you do some posts then 10+ hours later you got no responses?

[c of green]

here are some pics of the lady that i just cut.yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
what are the odds that i can get the one to revege with what i left on her?
and just so everyone knows i found no bugs today,and i am going to start some more seeds today,5 probably.....from 3 different bags,we will see what happens:D

[TheGreenFog]

Looks good...can't wait to hear the smoke report.

I've said some semi-cool things...but I can't remember any of them...

Announcement: Marijuana MAY affect the memory...beeeep.

[/bullsh*t]

Don't you hate it when you respond to a post, and then C of Green bitches about responses? LOL...j/k please respond. hahaha

LMAO...seriously, there must be something wrong with me...oh yea...I haven't smoked recently.

Be cool.

well,why no smoking?and that shit about cannabis affecting........what was i saying?anyway,:yippee: no wait i meant:joint1: I will give you ONE more hit....from now on you better bring something to the table:D :stoned: :D

[c of green]

i really need to make sure that i am done before i "submit reply"
anyway i wanted to say that since i cut my flowerer i dropped the light to 7 inches above the top of my tallest and temps are still under 80 after about 3 hours:D :yippee:
^^i really like that smiley

[QUOTE=

[stinkyattic]

Not great on reveg odds but go for it, you've got nothing to lose.
I'll post pics of my silly wick cloner contraption tomorrow.
Those buds are beauties.

[c of green]

thank you much for the compliments and i look forward to seeing the cloner.i made one yesterday out of the hood my 70 watter came with.i just don't know if i like it yet.i guess as long as it works i will be happy.it just REALLY isn't pretty.
i didn't figure i would have great odds on the reveg but there were no leaves to leave on there and i couldn't sacrifice any more bud than i did.
well,now i am gonna go clean my bowl out...or microwave a half bowl of the fresh stuff.....hmmmmm...decisions decisions.

[BLaQLiGhT]

PLease forgive me C of Green, I forgot that I could find you here on your new thread ;) . Things look to be going very well I must type :p . Those PiCs up there are nice, I hope the bud is twice as good. You Gotta check this thread out, 3 Aurora Indica plants close to harvest. Their beautiful: http://boards.cannabis.com/showthread.php?p=1089309#post1089309

[c of green]

Thank you for the link....they are some very nice looking plants.from the way that they are growing i think the WW may get phased out of the room.will keep a mom and dad though so i can have a few they just won't be a main plant.

I found a strain called metitation that i want to check out,it is by magus. Soma's G13 haze X Lavender is sounding pretty good too......anyone tried them?

And thanks also for the compliment...so far the smoke has been pretty great:D ...can't wait to try the last one.i did quick dry a little bud but one can't really judge quality from that(4 hits still got me quite high though)so it should be decent once it drys corrctly and has at least a little cure.i don't know how much cure it will get though because i am DRY!!!!!:( i am gonna be making some honey oil soon so maybe that will give it time to dry right.

what are you growing now blaq?i couldn't find a log for you?

[BLaQLiGhT]

Hows it going C of Green, I don't have a Grow Log on this site but there is a thread that I update on sometime on this site. It was starte by a diff member who is growing the smae strain as I am, then another person growing them same strain found it to :p . We call our selves " Team Top44" TT44 for short :dance: . The strain is Top44 which is known for being the fastest flowering strain. Here is the LINK :

Just wanted to stop and say hello and I love you to my beautiful husband <3

Your wife

[c of green]

i wish she wouldn't get on here and post crap like that...like this is a chat room rather than a educational forum.....annoying

anyway i have taken cuttings and they seem to be doing good....5 days and they are not even droopy so that has to be good.Unfortunately one of the plants picked up a fungus...i think.....the leaves are curling and have rusty spots on them.so it is moved out of the room until i can fix it or i may just trash it since i have a cutting from it.don't know yet.

the branches are going nuts on the topped plants now and i hope to flower as soon as the cutting have roots.can't wait.

i have 3 new seedlings uo.they are a sativa dominant bagseed.i hope they are good because i have lots of the seeds for it.

my middle children are on there 4th or 5th node. i should be transplanting them soon.

the aphid problem wen't away for a while but it is back and worse now....i have to kill 10 or more a day......but i can't find DE anywhere.may get einstien oil(that will work right?)

[c of green]

forgot to say that it looks like i am getting 4 branches from one of the nodes on an AI instead of the normal 2......anyone seen this before?at first i thought something was wrong due to the weirdness of how it looks but nope.just 4 branches...very odd looking.but nice:)

[c of green]

so is the"rusty spots" and leaf curling a fungus?nute prob? i looked it up and it seems to be fungus...........any feedback?
i would post pics but i am not on my computer and don't want to put pics on their computer.hopefully i can post some soon.
the clones have all started to root and the plants that were topped are growing like crazy.i will flower soon.but want to take care of my problem first.

[c of green]

of course i forgot to say something which makes me very happy:)....and that is that my plant is revegging!!!barely left anything on her and she is growing.a few more weeks and i should be able to get cuttings.and will keep her around forever

[BONG0]

awsome

[BLaQLiGhT]

Hey C of Green, I hope things are going good for you. The rusty spots and leaf curling that you see on a plant, is it only on the AI? When I grew my AI, I had the same problem but things turned out fine at the end of my grow but I didn't know what was causing it. It could be that you are feeding it to much though. How often are you feeding them nute? Keep Em Green man :thumbsup: ...

[c of green]

they are getting GH grow and micro at about half strength.feeding twice watering once.one plant is getting to much food it seems and another is showing signs of N defeciency.but they are all getting the same food.
as far as the rust goes i haven't thought to look if it is just the AI but it isn't just a few little spots.it takes over the whole leaf in a day or two,making it turn crispy.i have went looking around here and have not found exactly what i am going through.not to the extreme that i am going through anyhow.I would really like to flower soon but i don't know what this is so i don't know if it is safe to go ahead or not.

does anyone know a home remedy for fungus?I will give it a try and see what happens.

One AI plant is about to hit the garbage(it was the first to show these spots and as a result it hasn't grown any so it will take up more space than it is worth)and i don't want to have to trash anymore.

and for all you picture fans i will find a computer that i feel safe putting them on so you all can see.soon hopefully

[TheGreenFog]

Hey, COG. Just stoppin' in to say HIgH. Congrats on the reveg. Get them pics up asaP! ;)

[c of green]

1.clones have roots!!!!!
2.transplanted the middle kids
3.set up veg room(need more lights damn it)
4.got alternating nodes so i start flowering VERY soon(i am going to flower 1 of each of the middle kids to just to see the yeild and because i have room)
5.55ish days and the constant harvest begins!!!!
a few plants will be added every week,i'll let you know and i will post pics when they show themselves........one way or another.:thumbsup:

[BLaQLiGhT]

How are your clones doing CoG? A constant harvest sounds good. Give us some piCs of your new set-up :p , we won't to see how things are going with ya :D . Keep Your plants happy...

[c of green]

why is it that things turn to shit as soon as they are going well?
so here goes the update............
last saturday i come home from work and go to my room and guess what??????a few plants had been pinched(behind 2 locked doors)so i of course am freaking out a little(lot)but what can i do?i was pretty convinced that it was my wifes brother that did it,but how did he get a key,right?(i had a spare hidden in the closet.someone must have found it)so i spend the night freaked out thinking of how this could have happened.......couldn't figure it out...the only option was an "inside job"
Anyway i go to work the next day but this time i bring all my keys with me.and guess what i find when i get home?????????my key to the bedroom doesn't work anymore because someone tryed to get in using a knife and messed it all up.but they got in the front door fine.this leads me to believe that it was the matinence man who did it.he has a key to the front and has hinted at growing before and since there were just a few cutting missing the first day it was either an idiot or a grower.so i start calling everyone i know looking for a place to move them and couldn't find one.I ended up having to throw away 25 plants before i could find someone to babysit for me.FUCK!!!
and on top of that they still backed out so i have them in the country with a space heater.and i am living with them....alone.and my wife is with her family.
so this theif not only stole plants but badly hurt my relationship.
O i forgot to mention in there that we knew someone that lived in the house before us(not until after we moved in)and they said they had problems with the handyman too.and guess what the landlord has to say????????"it is his job to check up on things".......so the fact that he comes into my house everytime noone is there and steals from me......fuck who knows he may have worn the wifes panties and ate my last moon pie.
anyway life is crazy right now and i will no longer live anywhere that i don't own because if someone comes in my house without my knowedege bad things will happen to them.later



P.S.i will put some pics up sunday(of what little i have left)
and in a few i will post pics of the future.starting over sucks but at least i am at step 2 or 3 rather than step 1

[c of green]

AI already has crystals 15 days into flower:)

[BLaQLiGhT]

I don't even know what to say man :( , this really sucks right now. I would be to scared to grow unless I had a place to hind the plants but you said you don't. :(

[Splifted]

That sucks man. At least he didn't turn you in for it, which is what would happen to most ppl whose maintenance man found their plants. As much as it sucks be thankful you're still a free man. Good luck with the house man, I can't wait to see your setup once you don't have assholes to worry about. I've had plants stolen too man, it blows. Stay safe man.

[c of green]

Well, her it is finally!!! The vegative remains. All finally growing well after the stress of a move ages have been lost but they should be around 4-5 weeks.
Clones have started a major growth spurt recently 3 nodes in as many days. Very exciting!
And the reveg is now getting serrated leaves.
And I have found a secure location for my children.

[c of green]

And whats blooming?
Down to four plants. Three are AI and one is WW. I only kept one WW because they didn't recover well from the earlier problems. AI has bounced back pretty nicely. all the pics are of the AI. The WW is the sickly looking one in the group overhead shots in the lower left :(.

PS- Got a chirstmas bonus of about 2 grams of very nice smoke. Guess what else?! Three seeds!!!!! You will be watchint them grow very shortly.

Enjoy!

Congrats on the new home for everyone... guess they like it, eh?
Lookin good there COG.

[Splifted]

Glad to hear bout the safe new home man, securitah is #1. And gotta love the 1 node a day thing, my plants were doing that a couple weeks after they got transplanted to their big 5 gallon pots and got used to their HPS light. The tops just looked like a mess of immature leaves just growing as fast as they could, it was sweet. Your plants are lookin good, that 3rd pic in your second from last post looks so nice and dense :thumbsup:

[Tokudai]

Nice work man - keep it up. Sucks about your security issue, but glad to see its taken care of. You'll love the AI - nice, superrelaxing smoke.

[BLaQLiGhT]

I'm happy to see that you are still able to keep your plants safe and post piCs :D . Everything green as they should be, time to sit back, relax and let those babies flower. Happying smoking to you bro :rastasmoke: , and have a Merry Christmas and a Happy NewYear :) ...

[c of green]

yeah i wish everything was as green as it is supposed to be but gotta work with what i got for now.thanks for the compliments and all.life is getting pretty well back to normal.......with the exception of all this holiday B.S.i will be very glad when it is over.
evertything is still looking nice.i just took cutting from what i had in veg.so we will know if i got girls here in the next few weeks.i will probably root for 10 days then flower.not expecting much yeild but still gonna grow them out.

the white widow still isnt showing crystals while the ai is all but covered in them.

i am gonna sprout the bagseed i have on the first.the buds were grown well so i am pretty sure a rouge male flower hid out so i am hopeing it was pollinated by the same strain.and if not i hope it keeps the same high...

i think that a 200 dollar seed order will be my birthday gift to myself(my birthday is soon:))...with S.A.G.E. being on the top of the list.

Yah man, AI gets really frosty, lotrs of trichomes. You'll like it :D . I the Nirvava site, it says that AI might be the most potent Indica :jointsmile: . I harvested my plant on frciday, I got some piCs. Soon I will get a scale and weight the harvest. Merry Christmas CoG...

[c of green]

well here i am again....unfortunately no pics.
everyone in flower are thickening up nicely and the widow is finally getting chrystals:)
i got the sexing clones in the flower room now.only been two days so no signs of anything yet.
i took off the lower little branches that were on the flowering plants but not progressing due to lack of light...they are now in the "cloner".
got my old clones transplanted....i was a little late doing this,they were quite rootbound.:(hopefully they will take off again soon.they are starting to concentrate on branches more than vertical growth which is a great thing.they need to be moms here pretty soon if the ones in veg are male.
bigger plants in veg are getting nice and branchy...by the time the cuttings are sexed they will be ready to give me lots of babies.....now hopefully they are ladies.I think the ai is and i am worried that the widow isn't.they have been showing alternating nodes for ten days or so.preflowers are still unreadable to me though.


blaqlight...looks nice..is that the main cola?how long did you veg it?

i think that satori from mandala seeds has replaced sage at the top of the seed list.

[BLaQLiGhT]

I kinda had 2 main colas since I topped the plant at about 3 weeks into VeG. I VeG it for almost 4 weeks since I tryed to clone but that didnt work out :p . I LSTed the plant and and one of the main colas was bigger then the other. It's nice to hear that the Widow is finally getting frosty, maybe its a late bloomer and will pack on a lot more crystals to keep you happy. Good smoking bro :jointsmile: ...

[c of green]

one of my lights fell and burnt up 3 branches of the vegging ai(the short bushy one):(
everything else is doing fine.starting to thicken up nice.....i haven't seen them for almost two days so i should really be able to see the changes better than when i spend alot of time with them.....hopefully anyhow.
i will try and get some pictures today and post on thursday probably.
i had a heat prob for a day or so(90ish) and lost alot of leaves which sucks but it is hard to control heat at the moment,and i only lost the "bad" leaves so........
i have decided that i am going organic from now on....the hydro is to picky,plus taste is more important than yeild anyway.
and stinky...my backer wont know where it is and just wants to smoke not make money.

[stinkyattic]

Oh phew! Well just make sure he doesn't get any ideas...
Lucky you didn't lose a light!
Hey a thing to think about... plants can usually take the heat... 90'F is not uncommon in my garden... it's only a real problem if the ventilation is not that good. Then they DO suffocate really fast... you will see the leaves turning greyish and brittle before they drop. A combination of good air flow plus Silica Blast plus a close eye on water is a pretty good safeguard against those high temps.

[c of green]

thanks for the tips on the temperature..



AI showed ladie preflowers!!!!!!!:D
sprouting seeds tomorrow
didn't get pictures:( batteries were dead.i will get them soon though....promise:D

[... Sativa Haze ...]

That sounds great SativaH, AI is a great strain :) . CoG said he really injoyed the growth of the AI but it's good to hear that the WW is finally turning around it's ways and dropping crystal for you all. keep Em Grow, Keep Em Green, Keep Em Frosty :jointsmile: ...

[c of green]

just got a seed mix of white widow,bubble gum,cali orange and jack herer!!!!!!!!!!!!!and a new 400 watt light and all the goodies for an organic grow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!talk to everyone more tommorow probably


later:D

[c of green]

the seed pack i got had 3 very different looking seeds in it...so i sprouted 3 or 4 of each and 24 hours later 9 of them had popped already.:D
i made a new veg cabinet and repotted all my moms.
the clones i took are not doing well.been about 2 weeks and i have one root nub on one of them:(
everything is growing nicely other than the clones.

[c of green]

more veg pics.and my collection of genetics:stoned:

[c of green]

and on to the flowers..:D
ai is about 10 days away.been flushing them for a week now.took a sample last night and it already tasted good....and was potent!
white widow started the flush yesterday and will probably come down a week after the ai.
put the big white widow in flower 3 days ago.

[TheGreenFog]

Hey, COG. Lookin' good man. Those mums look nice. That LST method looks familiar. ;)

Good to hear you're going organic. I see some organic in the future of the JOURNAL too. :)

Too bad about your clones. I'd have to go back and see if you posted anything about your method...but what do you think went wrong?

Them's some hella seeds, man. Good luck with them. :greenthumb:


The Fog :rastasmoke:

[c of green]

i used the wick perlite method that worked great with my other clones,the sativa's are just being stubborn.at least i got seeds sprouted i will reveg the sativa again if i have to,or maybe i will find something better.anyway..................................... .the bag with the yellow paper is the jack,widow,orange and bubblegum pack......so everyone knows
and organic is the future.....chemicals taste so bad.

[stinkyattic]

lol here I am... =p
If you find that your clones are being stubborn it might be the winter temps... I know my house is COLD right now... don't know where you are though.
I got a seedling heat mat at the farmers supply to make up for it and my cloning attempts are not suffering from the cold anymore. Just a thought. It was like $23 bucks well spent.

[c of green]

thanks for the tip i will look into it.and i am in illinois

[stinkyattic]

Ahh then you are in the cold-ass winter ickies.

A seedling mat turns your cloner into a little tropical paradise for your plants to enjoy.

Now if only I could get in there with them, winter wouldn't be so bad after all!

:D

[c of green]

well,here i am.......no pics again but a little info.
the bag of seeds i got is actually from an accidental pollination in a room with the four mentioned strains.i haven't talked to the guy so i don't know what spread the pollen but either way i would bet money that there are some real gems in there.....unfortunatly the seeds don't want to live past a week or so.I am on my second batch now and i have 5 nice looking seedlings(1 of which is from the first batch of sprouts.they all look like they should make it.

i harvested everything.got about 40 grams off AI and 10 from the widow.Both are potent but the AI high is way better.relaxing but it doesn't stick me to the seat like the widow does.4 or 5 hits off her and i can't do anything,but the AI is more motivational.looks better too(and only takes 2 or 3 hits:stoned: ),so widow is out of the room soon.

in my opinion WW may be a good strain just not nirvanas version.it had weak stems,didn't recover well from "problems", and i had a male flower show up.

ventilation is better now..got an active intake running 24\7.

well,i am all caught up i think.(i got to get here more.....i was all the way on page 3:( )i will get pictures again soon.....promise:jointsmile:

[c of green]

ITS MY FUCKING BIRTHDAY!!and i'm not drunk.....huh i am confused.

13 days later and i am posting right next to my last post:( guess i need to get another camera so you shallow fuckers will like me again:)well, i'm gonna see if mom has any more weed.

[c of green]

maybe i was drunk.or something.idk,anyway hello again I have missed you all.I can't believe some of the changes.congrats to those whom deserve it(you know who you are.p-u)
got some pictures just gotta find a computer i know how to use.about to harvest the reveg.making soil is tricky.life was so much easier when i just bought a 99 cant bag of dirt and put some sprouts in it.<(hint to beginners)I think i finally have my mix worked out.
1\3peat
1\3worm castings
1\3perlite and or vemeculite
lime and various poops.....seems to be working other than my new growth being yellow in the center.any ideas?I water with RO(when needed)and use sweet and more poops once a week.
nothing new in flower.ai,ww,sativa bagseed.(harvest a few very soon,letting them get a little bigger now,got 1,2 and 3 gallon pots.various plant sizes.i like to experiment(?)maybe if i quit things would live happier)
various new bagseeds in veg.I also got mandala #1 sprouting right now.cant wait for outdoor season to really be here....
well,smiles and happiness to everyone...or some such shit.Later!

[c of green]

[c of green]

[c of green]

am i not worthy of a response or is it so beautiful everyone feels i need no help?
I like responses......seems kinda pointless without them.
later.

[stinkyattic]

lol it's because we are speechless of course!
that 2nd pic, the budshot, looks good enough to eat. mmm
but it looks like a little more light wouldn't hurt things; you';re brave trying to grow sats indoors!

[c of green]

love sativas!!!guessing it is about 13 or more weeks to finish.easy grower though.the edible one is a.i. it was a clone that wouldn't take so i put it in flower instead of the garbage and it thrived.
what i wanna find is some oaxacan(?)

[AsianStoner420]

holysmoke,....u just convinced me to really grow my own,..

[c of green]

learn,teach,motivate,that is why i am here.....thanks for making me feel like i am not wasting my time.And definately grow your own.
and as for the light thing....good eye.had a 3 day timer problem while away and things didn't like it much.i have 50ish wpf though,but it is a gavita and they suck!!!bright but HOT!!!400 watts with heat like a 1000(i am guessing cuz i have never used a 1000 watter)
later

[c of green]

and also 3 days of darkness will make plants new growth have yellow centers.

[c of green]

hey stinky...know what's going on with the f(R)og?haven't seen much from him recently.or any of the people that "were" around.

[c of green]

i'm bored so here is a "bump".

[c of green]

HEY!!!!

[c of green]

HEY!!!!C OF GREEN IS BACK!!!!!!!Life is still hectic as usual....i think that is how i like it or something.Got some goodies going..but still never remember my camera...and it's not the weed cuz i haven't smoked for a while,trying to get a real job to go with the drywall(having a little boy soon.)next time i get out i'll get pics though.promise:Dbuilt a new room and things were going great but of course once things start working out something has to happen.This time it was the fan going out.temps are way too high(115ish) so i moved most outdoors and left a few to see how they do.The outdoor is looking nice now i just hope that the unknowns finish.had kinda bad luck with the mandala #1s....only one female.Can't decide if i'm taking a cutting yet.does anyone know how easy it is to keep one in veg?Anyway I'll be back again....hopefully it doesn't take two months.And i better get this damn job.....i want a joint!!!!!Oh yeah the sativa that i revegged back there somewhere....i thought i had a cutting but no,so she is revegging again.got my first new leaves the other day.wooooo!

[SeaOGreenies]

Have you had any problems from growing near or around carpet. I now am over carpet and am worried. Dust, bugs, bacteria, mold. Did you see any of this.
