ah thats good to here man get a log up and some pics lets see how things are going man hehe yeah she is growing like a weed haha yeah i know i cant wait to see her in full flower so far this plant puts all the plants i had last year to shame so thats good it means i have learned some stuff and stepped up from last year.

ok here are the pics i took last week that i could not upload on here at that time as you can see from my last post before this one i will get some new ones this week.

oh i now have only 4 plants 2 are female other 2 have not shown sex gave 3 stunted plants plants to my younger cuz.

woww... they are looking great. Are you keeping them in pots or will they eventually go in the ground?

Thanx man well i have not decided yet i was thinking i would keep the one in the orange pot in pots and just grow the other that i already have in the ground out but i still have not made up my mind i need to soon though haha just cant find a good spot to many people riding around of fourwheelers and stuff.

i was just wondering if its normal to have to water about ever 2 days when growing in 5 gallon pots?

see the problem with mine is like i water it on the 8th around 7pm and by the afternoon on the 10th she looks all droopy.

so i was thinking either its heat exhaustion or she needs water she is about 3 1'2 to 4 ft tall right now should i be worried about this or should i just not worry about it and just keep doing what im doing?

After a couple days outside, 2 days sounds about right. Couple days after watering, drooping is how i know its time to water again.

Lift em when you think they need to be watered. Then after a thorough watering, lift again. The pot should be considerably lighter before watering again. Youll start getting a muscle memory for when they should be watered. And if you cant lift, tilt.

ah thanx man yeah she was all droopy today the last time i watered her was on the 10th so i go out and look at her today and sure enough she is droopy so i give her 2 gallons of water and before i could finish watering she was starting to perk up so i guess she is just using a lot of water.

i may get some pics later this afternoon or tomorrow if i have time.

i almost forgot a lil tid bit there has been a small lil praying mantis living on my plant for about 3 to 4 weeks it started out as a really small brown looking one i almost gave him the thump then i realized what he/she was and so i have left it alone now its starting to get bigger and turning green i cant wait till its grown up so then it can really kill all the pests.

hey hey guys here are the pics she looks a lil droopy but thats probably cuz it was a hot sunny day and it was late in the afternoon when i took them.

first 3 pics are of the older female that i have named Polly the blue jug in the picture is just a size scale.

the last is of the 2 younger plants i have i just tranplanted into those white pots.

let me know what you think guys and any advice on what i need to do.

how often do you check the ph of your soil?

ah well i have 2 in the ground right now i just put one of them in the ground yesterday im about to put up some pics hehe yeah man that would be nice!

time for an update well the older female i have named her Polly she was root bound so i dug a hole and put her in it yesterday afternoon so now i think she is happy no more droop so now im just hope she takes to her new home fine.

i have 2 younger plants i forgot how old they are i did not write it down haha anyways they have not shown sex yet so im keeping my fingers crossed for both to be female then i will have 4 females i have one thats been in the ground for about a month so but no pics of it yet.

well i dont know if anyone is still watching but here are a few pics of my girls the 2 younger plants in the white pots are female!!

Thanx man.

Well this is only my 2nd grow but from what i have read a lot of factors go into it, so id just make sure that you have a good root zone the better/bigger the root zone the bigger the plant will get and make more buds.

The other thing you need will be lots of good sun light. then some good nutrients to feed your plants with some for veg and some for flower with all of that and depending on the strain you should have some nice good dense buds.

yeah im unemployed so my plants are getting the generic treatment.. got a blueberry, 2 gdp, and a random kush outdoors in recycled soil.. no nitrogen and equalish amounts of phos + potassium last half of bud stage should = denseness?

ah yeah my g/f does not support me growing because she cant smoke so we have an agreement that as long as i dont spend lonts of money on growing it i dont have to hear any bitching about it so far i have only spent money on soil but you can get cheap nutes for both veg and flower just use miracle grow the all purpose plant food in the green box for veg and the purple bog called Miracle grow bloom for flower.

im not a pro so i cant really tell you what will help make them dense but i know if you feed your girls some flower nutes she will love it im sure you will be happy with what you get if you have lots of sun on them and good root zone plus nutes.

People are viewing its just they are nonmembers that cant post. Once all of this MODs VS everyone is done there probably wont be anyone around to reply anyways. BTW the trees are looking great! The way i see it... its doesnt matter if anyone posts cause looks like youre gonna have alot of great smoke come harvest time haha.

I agree with pushit. Sides', you got at least one viewer :thumbsup: lol. Was kind of wondering the same thing tho, if anyone's actually noticing my log. It's probably mostly that ppl aren't ballsy enough to register, which I have to admit made me a little nervous at first. I mainly did it because I wanted to see the thumbs, now I just keep posting for my own satisfaction.

outdoors is where its at!

ah yeah i got a pair to haha i cant wait it seems my oldest plant is taking the longest to start budding.

yup same here, my blueberry is a re-veg and about a month older than the other plants, also looks the most sativa'ish and its slackin. Not too much to complain about, as long as it starts packin on the weight ill be happy :)
