I know what mean I cant wait to get back to growing. Im staying tuned in because I want to see those c99 finished I have some and all I hear are good things about them. Other than that keep up the good work and those girls are looking good peace.:rasta::rastasmoke::pimp:Quote:

The papaya stretched a bit because after switching pots i forgot to lower the lights back causing them to stretch. The C99 though is still in perfect shape and she's beginning to be quite the busy little babe! The temps are at 80f they could be lower but the plants are doing fine like that. I may still add a fan in there this afternoon but im not sure at this moment.
The first 3 pics are of the C99 and the last two are of the papaya.
Super healthy plants there GDS!!! Nice work so far! The C99 is really stackin up nicely. Keep up the great work.
Ok for my young seedlings they seem to be ok but obviously they are in need of some nutes, so last night i added 3 tablespoons of Earth Juice grow to 10 gallons of Rez water. They have been living for almost 2 weeks now without any nutes at all and im sure that has something to do with the discoloration problem they are having.
I want to add 2 more PPP and 2 Skunk #1 seedlings to the system but with the ages being different obviously the older will need more nutes than the younger one's. I was wondering though if i could give very light nutes to the older seedlings just to keep them growing but not enough to harm the new seedlings?
Anyway here's a couple of pics of the buggers!
The First pic is of the C99, the rest are PPP. You'll notice the small problems im having if anyone knows what this problem is let me know!
Nice healthy plants GDS, just out of curiosity, are you going to transplant them into your DWC or you going to stick with soil?....
LOL, just saw your post after i posted, so that answers that question.
You could probably give them a nice shot of "Superthrive" and B'cuzz root, my clones LOVE that stuff....
Thanks bro! What ever happened to those pics you promised to show us.Quote:

Its suppose to help with root development, i havent gotten in to see how they are doing but thats because i'm not really concerned with it since they are so green and healthy looking. The only ones in the tray that are not all that great looking are the ones that i took from an already stressed plant, but thats just cause i was impatient (n00b move i know). With you being a hydro kinda guy, those roots are key to you, so yah, superthrive will give them a nice kick in dah arse that your looking for.
Here's another update on the Soil C99. She has had some really good growth in the past few days. Im gonna be taking maybe one or 2 clones from her in 2 weeks, in order to flower and determine sex. If it turns out to be a male i'll keep it in veg and just dispose of the clones but i plan on keeping a male for breeding stock. If she's a female though i'll feel up the empty spots in my drip system with the clones. I left 4 spots empty but im gonna add another PPP seedling and a Skunk#1 seedling, that'll leave me with two empty spots and if the clones root well this is where they'll be vegging until i decide to flower them.
So to sum it all up! I'll take clones from my soil C99 in two weeks, when they root i'll keep two in veg and flower one. If the one that flowers is female than the other 2 will stay in veg for like 2 or 3 more weeks before going into the flower room. If the clone turns out to be a male i'll just off all of the clones and keep the original in soil for later breeding stock.
Ok enough of the rambling here's a few pics of the lady!
They're lookin good GDS! I'll try to update later today as well.
Beautiful, they are filling out nicley. Do you use any foliar applications?
No not really i usually just mist them every now and then with some regular water but im sure that has nothing to do with the filling out she's doing.Quote:

Here's the reason I can't flower the C99's-----horrible problem to have huh?
Anyhow these are G13 x WW that I bought as clones since my seed order had not come in yet. I like 'em!!!!
Cool. I just started my first foliar feed on my ladies yesterday. I used some stuff a grower sent me from australia, its a sea weed concentrate called Seasol. It works wonders! All organic too. :thumbsup: You can apply it all through out flowering (every week or two) up until chop without experiencing bud mold, its pretty amazing stuff and i'd really recommend it..... Hers a bit of info on it, if you don't mind. You can get all the info if your interested HEREQuote:

BENEFITS OF SEASOL
Seasol is designed to complement a sound nutritional program and can provide benefits over and above a straight nutritional regime, i.e. not only the growth stimulating benefits of a fertiliser, but many other benefits as well.
Replicated and field trials have clearly demonstrated that Seasol treated crops display the following:
Markedly improved root mass
Increased number of blooms
Increased yield
Reduced sucking insect attack (eg aphids, spider mite)
Reduced fungal infestation (eg black spot, mildew)
Reduced transplant shock
Increased tolerance to adverse environmental conditions ? ; such as heat and drought
Increased nutrient uptake
Seasol can be applied to any plant including natives and acid lovers, at any time of the year.
The root system will be stimulated at any time of the year, even Winter, which makes Seasol ideal for Winter transplanting.
Damnit!! Wrong pics uploaded guys/gals----sorry!
Can a mod delete the above post for me???? Please!
Here's the real reason I can't flower the C99's.

Thats good info Kind. I'll be looking into it when I restock supplies. Thanks.
No problem bro, didnt mean for that to look like it was for GDS only either. Your flowering room and plants looks great bro! The g13 x ww is getting mighty frosty how far along are they?
Right now they're 5 weeks into flower. I have found that they are nute hogs--lol. I keep increasing it, and they keep growing bigger and fatter?!
Wow! Looking real good Pro Gro! Do those 400 watters not burn the plants being so close? Those gals look good cant wait to see them finished. How much do you predict they'll weigh?Quote:

Yield per plant is a tough one at this point. Is a pound a plant too much to ask for? Lol...... it is on these. I like the strain a lot, but I'm a little worried about the yield. At this point I think it's safe to say it will be a little over an oz per plant. But they have a lot of swelling to do in the next few weeks. So, maybe, just maybe if god were a grower too, he might smile on me with three oz's each.
These G13xWW's are by far the healthiest looking plants I've ever grown. I have increased their nutes twice each week, and can't seem to burn 'em. Right now they are at approx. 130% strength according to the bottles. But my last run of PPP gave me an average of an oz each under cfl's with only one week veg., and all I had for nutes then was fish emulsion, and PK 13-14. So, I really hoped under a total of 1200 watts of HPS, the yield on these would stomp the cfl grow, but I'm not sure that will happen on a plant to plant comparison. Only time will tell I guess.
Hey whats up guys just checking in and PGW those girls look mighty fine. Hey ProGrow do you have any bud inhancers like Big bud or any mollasses I think that would kick them into high gear.
Thanks BigWeed! They just finished their PK 13-14 diet. The only other things I have as far as enhancers go, is Earth Juice Catalyst and molasses. Catalyst isn't necessarily an enhancer per say, but it isn't absolutely necessary either. The molasses is getting poured to em pretty heavy. This strain is not yielding what I hoped it was going to, but then again....#1. they're not done yet............#2. They're not getting every possible yield-building product available thrown at them either. So I guess all in all they're as good as can be expected.
P.S....My budget doesn't really allow me to spend two to three hundred on nutes and enhancers like I'd like. It isn't necessary to spend that much, but then again, it'd be funnnnnnnnnnnnnn!
I'll try to get some new pics up tomorrow;).
Here's a couple of update pics of the G13xWW. My shitty camera and its auto-focus feature isn't the best, oh well. Enjoy!
WHOA, Fuzzy! I'd like some of that.
Shov
The molasses should do the trick give them some time and they will come around. I read somewhere that the G-13xWW cross really doesnt yeild much anyway it more of a connisuer type plant. Its more quality than yeild. I know it will knock your socks off when its done.:rasta::rastasmoke::pimp:Quote:

Holy shit bro, those plants are absolutely stunning. That first pic makes my mouth water!Quote:

GDS... if ya lived closer you wouldn't have to let your mouth water for long--he he he!
Will you plz flower one cindy ): I want to see what happens soooo bad!
Lol.....the Cindys are comin. I just have to make room for them in the flower room. Right now its so full I have to move plants out to water, then move em back in--lol. No room for Cindy just yet. But trust me, I'm as anxious as you are!
When I make room here shortly, I'll coordinate with GDS on our official C99 start date. We've both got em vegging as we speak.
Ok i finally got around to cloning my C99 and papaya yesterday. I wanted to take a step by step post with pictures on how i built my bubble cloner and how i exactly did my clones but im a jackass and when i got busy i totally forgot to take pictures of the process. Anyway though here's atleast 1 pic of the process done and the clones are doing well for day 2 i hope this continues. I have never cloned before i only grow from seed but i guess this is the dawn of a new day for me and thanks to ProGro i now have the balls and the know how to clone!!!
Thanks Bro!
From Left to Right is 2 C99's and 2 Papaya the last papaya clone is just in there for the hell of it. I dont expect it to survive but i cut it by mistake so i said what the hell and just put it in there and hoped for the best.

Do you really think your CFL grow will out-preform your 1200 total watts of HPS? (plant to plant) That would be something to see.
GDS,
I really hope to see more posts from you soon.
GDS...no problem on the cloning thing!
Skrappie... No, I don't think the cfl grow will outperform the HPS grow. Whats finishing up in the flower room now is a different strain than what was grown under cfls last time, so they won't yield as much no matter what I do. The yield potential just isn't there genetically. I guess I really wasn't thinking when I said that
:wtf:.
Dont worry you will! Thats why im taking clones! Soon me and Pro Gro are gonna start flowering our C99's. I'll have constant weekly updates at that point. We'll both have updates everyweek up until harvest time. Stay tuned you wont want to miss this.:pimp:Quote:

I'm most likely gonna be crossing the Papaya to my Skunk #1, i definitely cant wait to grow that out and see the results of that! My C99 of course is a female and she'll be hanging around the neighborhood for a couple of years hopefully or atleast until i run out of room. Hopefully the other C99 seedling that is in the drip system will turn out to be a male. I'd definitely love to get more seeds.
Enough of my ramblin though. The first 2 pics are of the Papaya male and the second 2 pics are of the C99.
Absolutely beautiful GDS. Great work on those!
very nice :thumbsup:
