Great looking harvest! Congrats!
Understood. But it looks like you were also cultivating plants you'd like to keep unpollinated; my point being there is going to be some risk of contamination involved and were you really sure you wanted to take that risk.Quote:

I'm still a little puzzled about your wr being as branchy as they were. Who's were they if you don't mind my asking?
Wow senor your pics look awesome my man:thumbsup: There was a middle point which you didn't post to many pics, so i sorta lost track of how they were doing. But all i can say is great grow, as those buds are huge.Quote:

No one could ever tell that it was your first grow, not a chance. I opened the links to get a closer look and wow senor you couldn't have got a better grow. You really did your homework no bout. If i were you id be really proud, cuz i know you gave them plenty of TLC:thumbsup: Plus you had plenty of know how, as you can really tell:hippy:
Il be glued in for your next endeavor for sure my friend. It will inspire lots of people for sure:jointsmile:

Thanks again for the kind words, LSY. Since I don't know yet what my yield will be, whether it would be reasonable to have higher expectations next time or not remains unknown. Starting with larger containers (now 3 gal. instead of 7 liters before) I hope will avoid the mid-flower stress these babies went through. I think adding the CalMag to my feeding regimen from the beginning will also help. I haven't even smoked any yet, so don't even know about quality although all signs are positive.Quote:

I invested much $ and space in my house to this pursuit that others don't have available to them, so I had some advantages too. I've decided that there are two keys for me; lots of light ( with 4000 watts of light, I should get some results,right)?, and checking my plants A LOT. Not a day went by that I didn't check them closely at least twice. Bad things can happen very fast, and if you don't notice something for 3-4 days it can be too late. Just like when yours went a-visitin', right? Anyway, I still have lots to learn, but it's still fun too, so that makes it easier. Thanx again.
Well you put in the learning part and do have a very nice set-up, so it shouldn't be a surprise at your harvest. I seen a lot of people that uses the Cal Mag and never heard problem with it, but iv never seen it, nor do i know exactly what it does/helps. I really think the bigger pots of course will help too. Thats just more room. Iv read that the above growth to the roots, works out to be 50/50, above the soil and below it. Im really not sure about this, but it makes sense to me. With a bigger root foundation, it would seem the bigger the plant would grow. Also, you can use the pics to compare this grow with the next to get an idea as to growth speed. Just a thought.Quote:

So i would think of anything i could do with my plants, because it was so much fun. After growing bonsai for 15 years, which is very slow growing, i fell in luv growing weed. It develops so fast, each day you can see a difference. Thats why i started an indoor before i had the basic equipment to do so.
I will have pics soon. I see buds starting to get bigger everyday, but i have at least a month if not more to go. But thats ok, as the problem iv had, if i could get like a half oz, it would be a good grow for me. Next year il be prepared and il be able to veg my outdoor plants to at least a foot before planting them. The Edna im growing is doing very well and more sites then the skunk/haze ones. Plus i have some seeds that iv not tried yet, which were made to grow fast. Here are the genetics, Nirvana Special x Top44)x WW) x ((Thai Haze x Skunk#1) x Lr2), this will be some good stuff im thinking. With the WW and Lr2 and other strains i cant wait till spring as im sure you cant wait to get your clones vegged and ready to go.
Catcha later my friend:rasta:
Supposedly Greenhouse, but you know how that goes. I received clones from a friend, and he started with clones too, so who really knows. The bud pictures from Day 47 or whatever posted earlier in this thread look EXACTLY like the bud pictures of GH's White Rhino in Rosenthal's Big Book of Buds Vol. 3., so maybe it is really what I was told. Also keep in mind that I didn't really prune at all except to remove dead/dying leaves.Quote:

I live with an undesirable person too, but luckily my wife doesn't frequent this site. (Thanks to Henny Youngman). From watching your grow, I think your plants just need more light. I know you're not in a position to give more, but I think that's the only reason they've been so slow. We do the best we can with what we got. All we really do is keep the plants healthy, and yours look healthy. I hope you get a good return. If we figured out who got more quantity/dollar, you might be surprised who came out on top.Quote:

So after i get these bills im behind on, i might be able to get one more clamp light, which then would be enough to get me through. Of the two clamp lights, i bought a large one, which will not fit the y splitters and the hood cant be taken off, like the smaller one. The small one fits 4 bulbs, but the big one only 2 light bulbs. So $7.99 for the light and $5.00, if i get a different k rating for bulbs would be enough i think. I have enough bulbs to fit the bigger light, but they just will not fit the splitters. You can tell in some pics at the light difference there is in the two. Who knew, i thought the bigger would fit the splitters better, but i was wrong. But i have a $300.00 vet bill and grooming i need to take care of, as my dog means more to me then the grow. He's a great dog!:rasta:Quote:
