hey gandor, how long you been veggin the skunk for?
yo emmpey :thumbsup: looking good man :greenthumb:
hehe....fresh tips are better than nothing m8, done that myself more than once.....:stoned: I have been trawling the boards at ozstoners.com & it seems that White Skunk is also known as Great White Shark....apparently some1 crossed WW & SS before Sensi did :confused: doesn't matter now, I suppose...LOL :D
Hey slayer - do you think they are the same then? I'm not too clued up with all these different seed producers and strains. I just buy cheap :) and GWS is like four times the price in the UK for 50% less seeds. Still at least I can read a few more grow reports now.
Hey gandor - I started mine beginning of sept, but I had to move em after a couple of weeks veg, they then spent 3 weeks on a cold window sill, with only poor daylight and were properly abused. I put them back in the veg box at the beginning of october. they looked like this after a week of being back http://boards.cannabis.com/attachmen...6&d=1160473570 pretty sad, but they pulled through ok. :thumbsup:
my second red envirolite came today :dance:- check out my new flower cab , 6000 lumens per sq ft. from CFL :cool: can't wait to see how it does.:yippee:

hey man. what's happend to Gandor's posts :confused::confused::confused::confused:
:confused: I have no idea m8.....maybe 1 of the mods could shed some light here....:confused: :confused:
maybe he deleted his profile....I dunno.....He wasn't rude or anything so I dunno why the mods. would delete his posts.....:weedpoke:
apparently he was banned as karmaxle, came back as harmony, was banned again, came back again as gandor...you get the story. the mods deleted all his posts.
i took 8 clones today from my two biggest plants, used 50-50 potting soil/perlite and hormone gel - so fingers crossed.
I will stick the two big uns into flower next week and take the rest of the clones from the other three.
(got some more shoots to smoke too from the branches that were to small LOL)
I finished my flower cab btw, have a look - I'm well chuffed wiv it. :)

:D YO emmpey :thumbsup: excellent set-up man, looks really good :thumbsup: My 5 are doing really well, I picked up a 400w HPS coz I think the 600w will be too big for my lil' closet....Not much work left to do, just got to get an exhaust fan in there. :greenthumb: When it's ready, I'll put the 2 biggest plants in there to flower. I also have ordered more seeds, this time I got Pineapple Punch from the Flying Dutchman.:thumbsup: :rasta: I wanted something different, something fruity & tropical with a Sativa high. Still no digicam:( as soon as I do get hold of 1, I will post some pics.:thumbsup: I can't w8 to try some fresh tips.....LOL :D :smokin:
Peace & cones
Slayer :stoned:
cool slayer - you seem to know your strains man :) I wanna get me a 400w HPS next year - i'm scouting around for a glass tube so I can make a cool-tube (another cheap-skate special :D ).
One of my plants is different from the other four - it's much more vigorous and more sensitive to the nutes and dosen't have as many pre-flowers - I hope it's got a different taste and buzz cos I like a bit of variety too.
I think my clones are gonna make it. they look good today - i've killed so many before that I should have eveything covered by now :o
Yo emmpey:D Ya man, I'm a bit of an info junkie....& I'm getting too old & fussy to be smoking shite....:smokin: took us a while to narrow down the list to a few strains we really wanted to try & could also afford. If I could m8, I would have Northern Lights#5 X Haze in the grow room,:thumbsup: but the price puts that out of reach, for now anyways....;) All of yours were grown from seed, weren't they ?? I have not found any mentions of phenotypes with WS, but that's not to say there isn't any....:confused: Guess we'll have to wait & see....My 5 are going sooo well, I have never seen such fat stems on seedlings before.... :greenthumb: & they are all showing uniform growth :thumbsup: Good luck with yer clones m8. :jointsmile:
Peace & cones
Slayer :stoned: :hippy:
we need pics man, work on getting that camera.. im so wasted, and its 10 to 12:00 and your little things green... slayer man what are still doing up.. im gonna go pass out now..
:stupid: (on the cam) LOL. I wanna see how much nicer they are under natures grow lamp.
yeah mine are all from seeds. the odd-ball is so vigorous i thought it was gonna be a male so I was pleased to see the pistels. only 8 weeks or so and I should know if it is a different pheno type - actually make that 6 cos I've got some self-control issues :D
apparently there are two phenotypes according to this grow report.

cheerz man :D I totally missed that in me stoned daze :stoned: The "rotten meat" stench doesn't sound appealing...:( maybe it was just the writer's nose.;) :D it sounds like yer odd-ball may be the WW pheno. :confused: :thumbsup: Mine are not much to look at atm., maybe getting a cam 4 x-mas....:D by then they should be photo-worthy...LOL ;)Quote:

i been reading every thread i can find with 'white skunk' and found out there are two types, one is WW x SS and the white lable one is WW x Skunk#1 - that's maybe why they are a lot cheaper than other WS strains.
Cheerz emmpey :thumbsup: some nice pics there :D
You know, I think the Skunk#1 X WW sounds better to me b/c it would have more Sativa in it :thumbsup: I'm just glad to have some known genetics, even if they are from the cheaper end of the range. ;) I'll have another look around Sensi's forums & see what I can find. Seems that not too many ppl know about the Pineapple Punch tho :p
my veg cab was so stuffed I had two take two plants out. I repotted them and stuck em under one of the red lamps. one of em could have done wiv another week of veg - but what the heck.
The other three should have a bit of room to fatten up now. also getting more light to the clones.
come on you buds!
nice m8 :greenthumb:
My ladies[well, I hope they are...] are still adapting to the amount of N in my mix....LOL....the biggest is near 5" or so[i haven't really measured them....] & the rest is not far behind.... :weedpoke:
:hippy:
Slayer
eh-up slayer!
They are a bit sensitive to the N for the first month or so, they seem to need a fair amount of magnesium too, i've dosed em twice with epsom salts now, that's the worse part of growing a new strain for me - keying in the nutes. yours sound like they're doing great at 5 inches :greenthumb:
I'm having timer switch probs, so the flowering cycle has been a bit erratic the last couple of days :(, I might have to go and by a new one today :mad: (i hate spending money on my growing).
the clones are still looking good - none have wilted yet, just been spraying the inside of the baggies occassionaly. I will clone and repot another two plants next week and one plant I will leave in veg until i know the clones are gonna be ok - if they're not I'll just clone again - I really wanna get the sog going.
:jointsmile:
eh-up emmpey ;)
Yeah, they are definitely sensitive allright, I use a lot of Yates' DYNAMIC LIFTER in my mix which contains composted chicken shit,blood & bone, kelp & fish bits....it's got a fair bit of N in it.:thumbsup: They will grow thru soon & take off, nearly big enough for 1st. tipping. :greenthumb: :weedpoke: When they are big enough, I will start feeding them with MonsterBud organic hydro nutes. :greenthumb:
I know what you mean about spending on the grow m8, I try to do it as cheap as possible by re-using pots etc. I think it may be my Scottish blood, coz I'm a real tight-ass.... LOL :D But a good timer is a must-have, usually the more expensive units last a whole lot longer. :thumbsup:
Always a good idea to take more cuttings than you need, just in case some get sick or die or whatever. That way you can just use the strongest looking plants. :greenthumb: Speaking of cuttings, remember I said that I gave some seeds to a grower m8 ?? well, he's gonna send me over a couple of cuttings of this indica strain he's been growing indoors :thumbsup: should have them by next weekend, they will go outside & maybe 1 will find it's way into the closet of light. LOL :D
:hippy:

hey slayer, i fixed the timer ting by running another extension line and moving the timer, its now on the outside of the cab - switching on the 4-way ting. they're digital ones - not a good idea to have two of em on one extension i suppose - it wont trip off when there's another drain on the line.
moved the clones a bit closer to the light now that they are used to their rootless bodies - the stems seem a bit thinner and a couple have red stems, i hope there are some roots being made down there :confused:
the ones in flower have started to stretch a bit. i made a little polystyrene wall to bounce a few lumens back in. i cant wait to see some more flowers in there man :D
Lookin' good m8 :greenthumb:
Mine are in red pots as well....LOL :)
shouldn't be long 'til you get lotsa flowers happenin' :thumbsup:
:hippy:
Slayer
what you were saying earlier about the clones - i'm hoping at least one per plant makes it, i took 4 clones from each so i might be ok with a 25% success rate. :) i'm hoping to have a least a couple of different smokes so a good potential mother from each until i get a puff.:stoned:
yeah, red pots totally rock man :thumbsup:
Looks like you will end up with more cuttings than you need, which is always handy. :greenthumb:
I like a bit of variety as well m8, that's why I ordered the PP as well as the WS. maybe in the new year I'll get me a really nice HAZE :stoned:
:hippy:
Slayer
i found a couple of roots on a clone today :dance: 12 days after cutting. some of the others definately seem to be more turgid - should see a few more hopefully :cool:
i flushed the soil on the vegging plants cos they seemed to be losing their vigour, i'll repot in a few days. the flowering ones are still stretching, i included a pic with a same aged veg for comparison. quite a few more pistles - will soon have little buds. :D
eh-up emmpey :D looking good m8 :greenthumb: good to see those clones wanna live. When I 1st. grew indoors, every1 I talked to said that a hydro system should be flushed well every week before yer nute change, otherwise there will be a build-up of nutes in the bottom of the pots. I would put about 2 or 3 buckets of water thru each pot....obviously your pots are a bit smaller so they won't need quite as much. At least 1 bucket {9 L or 2 gall.} should be enough to flush pots of the size you are using. :thumbsup: I took a tape out to my girls today, the 2 tallest are 20cm and the other 3 are about 17cm. :greenthumb:
I love the way actively growing MJ plants track the sun across the sky, a bit like a sunflower, the top bends slightly to follow the sun....so cool :thumbsup:
yay - another two rooted this morning :D and a few others look ready to strike too.
the flushed veggies are looking much more perky today - i think i did a couple of pots worth of water on the flush, they only gonna stay there for a few more days before going to flower. i usually flush through until the water starts looking clear. now i need to take another 12 clones - always something too do eh?
yours sound great, maybe you got 2 males and a 3 girls? i Iike trying to guess the males :).
now i have cloning keyed in I hope it's a long time before i have to start from seed again. he he.
hehe, I hope they are all ladies...still dont know 4 sure yet....the biggest 2 cracked 1st & were in pots a couple of days b4 the others....apart from that, they are all almost identical in leaf development, branch spacing,etc.
:greenthumb:
yo emmpey :D got me a cam :cool: but.... my piece'o'shite dinosaur pc can't use the software 4 it b/c it's running on windows98....:mad: fookin thing....i h8 'puters....:confused: so....as soon as I get this thing updated & my copy of XP pro installed (prolly after x-mas sometime...) I'll be posting some pics, by then they will be a nice size & I'll also post pics of the Pineapple Punch. :greenthumb:
:hippy:
Slayer
yeah - way to go slayer.:thumbsup: what make and model is it? i may be able to help with the software ting - some cams are twain compliant so you can do 'import' or 'aquire' from photoshop etc.. i still run a pc wiv win98 - for games you understand ;)
more new smilies :madnoel:
:Tomcat:
yo m8....it's a kodak C433 4.1 mp unit with the printer dock thingy....nice little cam, does video with audio as well :thumbsup: the printer is W98 compatible but not the cam itself...wtf ?? I'm such a pc noob man....I don't think I got photoshop....not sure anyways....I'll start hunting today 4 some second-hand RAM & I'll prolly have to get a nerd around to chek out the dinosaur & get it running sweet. hehe I'm a console gamer dude, never got into PC gaming coz I just like to pick up & play....not dick around 4 half an hour configuring b4 I can play....I have heard that W98 is better 4 games, a m8 uses a dual-core unit with W98 4 his games & XP pro 4 everything else. if you lived around the corner dude I'd say come on over & have a look at it....LMAO !! :trooper: :vader1: :buzz_saw: the new smilies ROCK....I'm gonna pinch some 4 our clan forums.... :microwave:
here dude, go to this link and download the win98 software, then run it. if you have win98 SE then you need to select that from the drop-down instead of win98.
http://www.kodak.com/global/en/servi...oadLanguage=en
if you get stuck read the manuals here.
http://www.kodak.com/global/en/servi...l?pq-path=9355
another thing, i think that dock does have twain support - you can go in to accessories->photo editor (i think thats what it's called) to check after you update the software - have a look under import or aquire from the file menu. good luck :)
cheerz :thumbsup: ....yay....4 pages...LOL

i got lots o little buds happening, think i'll get some proper bloom ferts.
took some more clones, still only have 3 rooted - will put other two plants into flower next week.
yo emmpey :D nice lil' buds dude :greenthumb: thanx heaps dude....as you can see, I have got the cam sussed :thumbsup: this pic was taken at midday today....41 C...fookin hot m8....supposed to be hotter tomorrow....not a real good shot, but at least you can see them :D I'll take some more tomoz....I love new toys :D
So, yours aren't on bloom nutes yet ?? :confused: Always good, if you can, to start feeding with bloom nutes a week before they start flowering....so they can build-up with what they need b4 they start to flower. :greenthumb:
with the cuttings, i would move them closer to the light & the warmth....or have them on a heatpad with their own lights....possibly fluro's, if you have got the room :greenthumb:
ALRIGHT - glad you got it sorted :D
dem plants look great dude - much better than mine did at that age ;) and that sun is so high in the sky - right overhead!! I miss the sun, only getting 7 hours of daylight at the mo :(
I have been feeding mine low N stuff since going to flower (its like 12-25-25) but i thought I might try some nutes made specifically for MJ, can't seem to find any high P ferts 'round here.
yours should be showing pre-flowers by now - mine showed well early, have a close look with a mag glass.
