White Skunk from Sensi Seed's White Label

i am hoping t'get a 400w hps in the future. my two CFLs kick out more lumens than a 250 HPS, the problem is penetration (f'nar f'nar), any bud more than 10" away is gonna yield shit - that's why I want to get the SOG dialed in (it also gives me a good excuse to smoke buds "oh dear, that's too far from the light - chop chop!") :D

i'm gonna pot up some of the clones today - i've got my future mothers sorted out, 2 from the vigorous plant and one each from the others (5 total). that leaves me with nine clones to go into the flower cab when the first two plants are done. I'll clone some more off my 1 remaining veg plant when the last two are nearly done and try an 18 plant SOG. :)

Growing will become a pleasure when I have half-a-pound tucked away :stoned:- at the mo I find it very frustrating waiting, it's like watching paint dry, or a kettle boil. :mad:. I'll see if i can get some pics through the scope - it's only a phone cam so don't hold your breath.

ahhhh...kk....a 400 will liven them up....that with the cfl's ?? or u gonna use them 4 veg ?? dinnae worry if u dont get any good trich shots man....is kool....finally got an exhaust fan 4 ma closet 2day :greenthumb: just gotta get it in, dig out a timer & check for light leaks....i also got a wee oscillating fan that will fit in there nicely :jointsmile: the biggest of the 3 seedlings will prolly go in there with 1 of the PP :D In the next day or so I'll start to lst the big bitch....most of the branches have got alternating nodes now....a few leaves are a bit funny looking but I reckon that is from the N in the big dose of Dynamic Lifter she got last week....she'll grow thru it soon....starting to get thirsty too....I'll have to start checking water PH and adjusting....did I mention I only use rain water ?? don't think I did....it's soooo much better for all plants than tap mains shite....makes them look more vibrant & healthy & grow like a muthafukka :greenthumb: I'll post some before & after pics when I tie her down ;)

awsome m8 - it looks the effing business :D

managed to get a trich shot - v narrow field of view though. i got some higher P food for em, they seem to like it. will start giving some carb boost next feed. i left a mother to get some bigger root before potting up (i watered that droopy clone btw :) )

well done m8, the trich shot is pretty good....can see them no probs....I forgot to mention some measurements.....the overall height b4 TED was about 85cm. (33 1/2").....top 2 branches were 60cm. (24") long....:greenthumb:....had an interesting chat with ma neighbour over the back fence yesterday....turns out he has got a grow room in his shed that is not being used atm....he just needs some cuttings to get started again....hehe....you can probably guess where the conversation went after he told me that....

that's jammy slayer - my neighbour's would be calling the police if they knew I had a grow. have you any idea what sort of yield your going to get from her? i think my later flowering plants will be yielding more than the first two, the buds are much tighter together after the stretch, may get 2-3oz from each.

getting back to your other posts (I been job hunting last few days so a bit busy :) ) 400w HPS - when I built my cab I did intend to get one but funds were low and I wanted to start asap. I don't think I could use a 400 with my CFLs unless I get bigger cab. also all that messing about with fans, scrubbers etc. goes against my 'keep it simple' ethos. :) post some more pics of your cab when you do some work, it might inspire me :D

i use tap water, its pH 7.2 and after adding my ferts it usually goes down to about 6.7. the soil readings are ~ 6.5 - 6.8, if it gets to high I add half a cup of flat coke to the water :D it's good for flowering (phosporic acid) plus the soil gets some sugary goodness - lol.

anyways, I gotta start work next week, what a bummer when only a few weeks away from harvest ;) I might have to throw an early sickie when my buds are ripe. :D

yo emmpey....aye, he's a good neighbour :stoned: I don't really like to guesstimate yields, so many variables, so much temptation to sample :stoned: usually by the time my plants are ready, they have had a bit of trimming down low ;) ....atm, I could maybe get 7-8 oz. or so maybe....at the rate it is growing it could be more :greenthumb: It still has about 5 - 6 weeks to go before it starts flowering :greenthumb:

good call with the lighting....1 of the 1st. gardening rules of thumb, as it were, keep it simple....my cab is nearly done, just gotta work on getting good airflow thru it without major surgery to the closet....I'm gonna drill lotsa wee holes in the bottom floor so it can draw fresh air from underneath & see how that works....I should get in there today actually....

nice work with the coke....good idea man....similar to adding molasses, which I'm gonna try soon....apparently you can make a foliar spray with it as well :greenthumb:

good luck with yer new job dude....not much you can do, when the girls are ready, they're ready....hehe :stoned: do you have to do the harvest by yourself ??? we usually get m8's over to help with the bulky stuff, & they always go home off their nuts carrying some branches....;)

yo m8 :D I tied down the top 4 branches again today....they were getting a bit long :weedpoke: I'm gonna try something different with the lower branches, gonna use some small fishing sinkers to weigh them down :greenthumb: I'll get some probably Wed. & post some pics then.

aye, a big bush m8! i had to wait for lights on and now have to rush out. pics are blurry, will do some bud shots later. the trichs are starting to get cloudy and about 20% hairs orange, still new pistles emerging. 3 weeks to go. this will be the last week of feeding i think.
:)

hi m8 - i hate work :) I've had to do some serious 'pruning' on my lower branches :D oh well.

My other two are going really well, I think i may have been underdoing the feeding with the first two though. I might do a partial harvest on one at the weekend, i know its early but I aint buying any more off the street and my puff is better. I don't think I'll need any help with the harvest - i wish i did cos that means i would have pounds and pounds :D

Anyway, lunch break over, back to work - oh how i hate it :D
