This will add 75% more space than current and should be enough to put root boundness at bay. While not adding to much height to the overall height of the plants.

My feelings are this should go smooth and I will post pics of this delicate process tonight when lights come on. But for now its off to get some soil.

Be aware though that you can't treat soil as coco and I don't wanna be a reason for you experiencing slow or impared growth ;) . Plants will much easier get rootbound in soil. I am sure you will be ok and I am certain you know what you are doing. Just saying that you can't copy techniques used for coco to a soil grow.
Now having said that your pots will still be fine I think. Soil normally take around a gallon medium per month the plant is alive to stay clear of rootbound problems so a plant that will grow for 3-4 months will be ok with 4 gallons of soil. In coco you can make it very well with half that even though you will have to water very often.
Looking good m8. :thumbsup:

Well I am 4 weeks into this grow and now the buds are really starting to go as you can see.

The transplant went well and showed no signs of stress only more growth:thumbsup:

Also from this point on I am only going to take them out of the box for watering, it has become to dangerous to move them around now. They are just to tall now and I cant risk breaking a branch at this point. Hell I just may end up watering them in the box and not taking them out till they are done.

But as you can see by the picks they are looking very sweet. Trichs are just starting to appear and there is a sweet smell starting to come from the box.:jointsmile:

Some More.

Just to give a referance for the pics in the box, the camera is at neck level and I am close to 6' tall.

Wow Jerry, that's a jungle....nice work so far, i have a feeling we gonna see some huge tops soon....good luck....:thumbsup:

Sweet dude.
Really nice that we are in sync with our grows as well man. I am starting my 5th week as well in 12/12.
You got some fat flowers on those, nice to see.

Wow im lovin it...like mcdonalds :wtf:

Thanks for the support:D

Anbesol: I hope I get my share of quarter pounders :jointsmile: Because I'm Lovin it also.

Excellent!

Well this is the sit back and wait time of the grow so I have been scouring the Internet for seeds and reviews and have come across allot of interesting strains but one in particular has caught my attention. MATANUSKA THUNDERFUCK.

I have read all the history on it that I can find, I know that it is only available in cloan form and maybe extinct:( ,and that seeds have to be a cross since no male MTF is available. I have found a couple of reputable seed banks that have crosses available. Sagarmatha seeds ( Matanuska Mist, and Matanuska Tundra ) and Reeferman seeds (Kodiak Gold) I have found the Sagarmatha seeds, but cannot find the Reeferman (Kodiak Gold) anywhere.

I am not sure about the Kodiak Gold there are conflicting reports on it. One says it is not a cross with MTF It is a pure strain from Kodiak Island, then others saying it is a cross of MTF and a strain from Kodiak Island

The Sagarmatha seeds are not Cheap by any means at around $330.00 for 10 seeds at hemp depot.

I was wondering if anyone knows and or has grown any one of these 2 strains before and have a report and hopefully some pics not from the website.

I have not grown it but I have smoked it and ATF/MTF is absolutely amazing.

I have Jack the Ripper going, a pack of NLxBlueberry seeds, and once both the NL/BB and the JtR are established, the MTF from Sagamartha is my third planned grow. From what I understand its pretty indica-y so it should grow nice and squat too.

If I remember correctly from my research on the strain StinkyAttic used to grow a mean strain of it a year or so back... search Matanuska on the boards and you should be able to find some of her old stuff on it :thumbsup:
