my camper closet grow

Wow! I just had a nice suprise! Took a big ole hit of leaf, smooth, not bad at all for leaf, but when I exhaled I got the very distinct taste of pink bubblegum! Can't wait to smoke the buds from this! ;) ;) ;)

Cat, after getting to know you through your post, think I found your avitar, Bing Daisy Mae. Have tried to bring image, but not techno brainy enough.

We're all waiting, on pins and needles, for real smoke report.

Ranger, I need an avatar! I can't figure out how to post anything but text. I'm going to try to get this photobucket thing figured out so I can at least give a link for anybody who wants to view my album. I have a 'share' option on my phone, but is there such a thing as a link to my grow thread? If there is, maybe I can post direct from my phone. (I just thought of that, or I would have already checked it out).
-- I don't know what kind of effect long term acupuncture would have on the human butt, so don't sit on pins & needles just yet. Remember I've been trying to hold them back? Well another thing about mainlining that works to my benefit is that fact that its time consuming. What it amounts to on a time line, is top & grow out twice, then supercropping. All that topping & thinning out non-productive under growth will keep me in leaf untill I harvest bud, so I can wait for perfection. ;)~~~~~~~ :) :) :)

Something strange. I have one plant that just doesn't like as much nutes as the others. I feed a diluted solution when some of the plants just start to pale, & THAT one will get a touch of nute burn. Same size, same root mass, but just doesn't like much nutes. Tonight was the second time I flushed it because of this. Gonna put a tag on it so I know to bypass it on the next feeding & when I finally feed it again, nutes will be diluted down to 1/4 strength. But I'll make it BEG for food first! .......just thought this to be strange, considering they're all the same strain, same batch of seed.

Do you have them sexed yet? I noticed my last young males wanted more food than the females??? Could be a recessive gene too?

Couple of questions. How do you watch the root balls? In today's world of fast food, can you assume much of anything? Maybe just one stray seed to make the batch. Still might be growing males, it's been awhile.

Males stretch above the females to ensure they drop their pollen on them. So I have 4 showing female growth habits, & 3 showing male habits. I'd shit if the one always getting nute burn is my only female! I need to take my glasses & 'scope to the closet & look for pre flowers. Couldn't see any last night with my bare eyes, but hell! I can't see anything else either! I've been looking for preflowers every night, because, yeah..... its about that time.
-- Ranger. The party cups I'm using are translucent & I can see the roots when I first water. They sit in a deep tray & the canopy is dense, so they don't get enough light to grow algae or bother roots. I'm hoping its just a throwback (pheno).
-- I'm getting ready to make coffee & while I wait for that, I'm taking glasses & 'scope back to the grow for a quick closer look. The cold snap made it a tad too cool in the closet. Between that & the drastic pruning I expected them to be held back a little. I need to go back in my logs & find the date they sprouted. I also went from 18 hrs of light to 24. Needed the heat from the lights during that really cold spell. I've never went from 18 hrs in veg UP to 24 before, so I've no idea if this would make them hold off pre flowers. But yeah, need to go back & check date sprouted.
-- Coffee time! :)

Good luck, hope their mostly all girls!!

Well lo & behold! One has sexed! Male...... guess which one. The nute burned one! He's in the kitchen now, under the counter light. Just enough light to keep him alive till he gives me some pollen. (Damned! That almost sounds like I'm holding a sex slave for breeding purposes! Once he gives me a baby, its off with his head! Heheheheh)!
-- Checked germination date. Nov 21st. So they'll be 8 wks old in a few days. Ehh, a little slow on sexing, not too bad though. The more I think about it, the more I believe turning the light to 24 hrs ( for their heat) most likely is the major contributing factor to delayed sexing. If I have 3 females = 6 cuttings (the two 'arms' under the 4 main branches for mainlining). Clone them & put them into flower with the 3 mainlined plants as soon as they're established enough to take the light, that should be just right for the flower cabinet. The clones will be vertical & not take much space, so a few more will still fit. As soon as the clones go into flower, start more seeds. Put them under 12/12 younger, still in veg closet, & always have something in flower. Perpetual harvest.
-- You know, when you were used to about 600 outdoor plants & a huge grow room, going down to just a few plants & keeping them small hurts! Its hard to count out 9-10 seeds & not be tempted to throw in about 50 more. Its been years since the big grows, big plants. But I can't get used to the small stuff. I can do it, been doing it, but it just doesn't 'FEEL' serious. Dont get me wrong.... love little plants, but I feel like I'm only playing. I need this coming seasons outdoor grow, for more reasons than just a big harvest! Guess I need to feel a sense of accomplishment. God help me, but I have cabin fever bad!

Cat, your a real amazon ain't you, instead of Daisy Mae lets find a wonder woman.
