The reference to your "comfortable seat" and "being able to do two things at once" was directed at the toilet in the picture. Hence: watch your plants grow and shit at the same time! OK, I admit, a little arcane!
No I am not a Colorado grower.. I used to live in Telluride though when I was young and it was still a hippie town. It's turning into another Aspen though which sucks.
Ahhh I get it now- the whole seat thing!! I wasn't quite sure and I usually get things like that. Duh Well , probably because they do not grow in the bathroom, I just water/ flushed her in the tub, so I was thinking about where I do in fact watch them grow...
Your plant looks good but it seems to be a little yellow which is more than likely an N deficiency maybe you should up the amount of nutes you are giving them JUST A LITTLE or add a bit of bat guano. I would try giving them a bit more nutes first. Those leaves should be a lush shade of dark green. Maybe it's the picture. Well, I guess you can tell me... Are they really kinda yellow or is it the pic?
Other than that though they look good.
On the picture about the female, I actually commented on it in your post... Look closer.
If you can't find it , let me know.
Elway
Also to all those following my post.. I did another trich test today, and they are not ready yet. They are till blooming those last bit of flowers before they are done. (a lot of last bit too I can tell ya) It's hard to get in and take decent photos where she is growing. especially with the other HPS lighting in there. I am sure I could do it, by turning off the lights for a minute or two and moving some stuff around, but I thought it to be more of a pain in the butt and I was being lazy. Soon though.. soon
FF-
Here I found my first response when you were inder a different handle of 1sttimegrower
Here is what I said:
ist time- Those were probably "hatch green chilies. That are native gold to New Mexicans. I absolutely love them and for some reason don't seem to grow well if at all anywhere else. I found some that were shipped to my state at the grocery store the other day and was extremely happy about it! anyway off on a tangent there sorry.
Anyway about your plant... I am not sure yet if it is a female or male, so don't get too excited. The male balls actually do not grow on the ends of those two flaps found at each node, they grow beside or behind it in the same place you will find a female flower grow. It will be one or the other. The other thing in your photo of question MAY be a female flower. It is too blurry for me to see but if you look around to see what a female pre-flower looks like you will have something to compare it to. If it is a little sack with a single or double white hair emerging from it that is a good sign. Do keep your eyes peeled at all of your nodes to make sure you don't have both sexes ( hermaphrodite) growing
keep us posted with more photos and we will be able to tell you for sure! Good luck and I hope you have a baby girl.

I LOOSELY follow the sweet instructions (= use the conc. on the bottle approximately whenever I remember to, lol) with the addition of molasses at a rate of about a glob a gallon.
I use anywhere from a glob, to a glop, myself (per gallon, or bucket, or whatever) :S2:Quote:

yup me too. I was just curious.:D
Hey guys... I have updates. No pics of the plant though... I will take a few later. I took a couple of buds for a sample a few days ago and just checked on em. I would say they are coming along nicely:thumbsup: here are a few pics with the hps on and off with a flash from my camera. Just thought I would get your comments on it... I checked the trich's again today and I am still seeing way too many clear ones. Some cloudy, some clear with maybe an amber one here and there...
Anyway here are the buds. Enjoy!
can u put molasses into a bubler reserviour type grow ?
I am sure that you can, but I have never grown that way. Stinky, when she comes back around will be able to answer that better for you. I know that I have put molasses into a drip hydro reserviour (sp?) and it was fine. You just have to make sure that you pre-mix it in gallon jugs and shake vigorously so that you will not have a sticky build up in the bottom of your tank. It has to be dissolved first.
Good luck,
elway
I use a canoe paddle to mix it right in the res.Quote:

FF where' ya go m8?
Does just plain old cooking molasses work fine?
I looked around and found nothing that said unsulfered mollases.
Look closely at the label, the unsulfured bit is sometimes hard to see.
I use a canoe paddle to mix my soil, haha!
Elway, I found my way back! The pictures of the plants, and the buds in particular, are very impressive. It gives me soething to shoot for. I'm convinced now that I will add the molasses to my feeding regimen. All in all, I'm envious! BTW r u on the left coast?
cheers guys, u rock
Snowblind- Thanks much! Cheers 2 you!
FF Thanks I am glad you enjoyed those pics! I sure did. They were finally dry this am!!:stoned: No I do not live in Cali.
MMMMM MMMM MMMMMM WOW double WOW
Blink- the easiest to find is "grandmas" it is unsulphered molasses and can be found at any grocery store. They will have molasses in larger containers at your local hydro store but I will warn you that it will be more expensive than just getting at the grocery store.
good luck.
I will post another update later today when I check the girls again... Can't wait... This long wait is killing me!
Elway
Elway, we're all salivating!
yeah, If it is THAT good when it was picked probably about 8-9 days before it's ready.. I can't wait until it's done! Holy moley! This little girl of mine is the best plant and bud I have ever grown. Not bragging or anything but I normally do grow bud that knocks the socks off my friends, but this takes the cake.. Great genes in that plant! I have 9 of her clones in the process as well! Yippe!!
oh yeah FF, YOUR envious?? Shit I would LOVE to have a greenhouse filled with the plants you have! My goodness the amount of bud you will have and now that you are a member of this community where you can get all the help you will ever need, you are in for an amazing treat! Trust me, If I could beam myself over there to lend a hand and watch that transformation... I would in a heartbeat. That is going to be fun for you and fun for me to help and see the progress. I am excited about your Women (mine are little girls compared) and where they are headed. Just remember to get out a ladder and check everywhere to make sure you have no balls. That would suck to catch it late and have hermies! Post soon
Fuck, I'm stoned!
Again, the cheapest I've found is at the feed store. 5 gallons for $18. If there's no feed store near you, try a food co-op. They usually have it in bulk for cheaper than the regular stores. :pimp:Quote:

JAMS_well I can tell you that it can't hurt the ones soon to be finished and it will make a change in the ones with a month remaining! Good for you:thumbsup: Keep us posted on what you see!
well I harvested some of my big girl today... Just the done bottom branches. I am still waiting... probably a couple more days until the rest is done... hmmmm
elway07 could you tell me what the sweet is?Quote:

Ok guys final weigh in on my queen!! Just a tad bit under 3 and 3/4 ounces!!! HOLY SHIT for a four foot plant I think that is pretty good!?? yea ney
anyway Cture "sweet" is a carb booster made specifically for plants. Molasses is the sam but a bit different. It does help the plant directly by feeding it sugar which helps it to grow fast and bigger. I am sure that Stinky can help you out a bit more than I can on exactly how it works. I am a bit tired and not really finding the way to explain at the moment. Sorry.
Elway
Sweet= carb synthesizer supplement= helps plants USE available carbon to make sugars, resins, etc.
Molasses= cheap, simple, safe source of available carbon in the form of simple sugars for your darlin' plants.
This is why in tandem they are a killer combo.
thanks Stinky! What do you think on that yield? good fair decent? I usually grow smaller plants in higher quantity...
Elway, that's "wet" weight, right?
no actually it was finished drying today.. then I weighed it...
I FIM'ed it and it had 6 main colas... I took pictures I will load some tomorrow.
A near QP dry off a single indoor plant is a VERY respectable yield. And that one was a beauty too. Pat yourself on the back!!!
Wow, that stuff dried rapidly. Mine takes at least 10 days before it's ready for cure.
10 days???? damn! It must be a bit humid where you dry yours!
Stinky--- Thanks! It is AMMazzzzing to me as well.
