here we grow again...........

they seem a bit sad, i messed with the way the air came in as it was drying them out in a day and a half, so a few days go by and they just didnt seem right.

PH checked out good, no buring or anything so not a nute problem, soil is moist and barely keep up with watering so they werent over watered, only thing it could be was the air flow.

changed it back, few hours later they seem to perk back up, hopefully anyways they continue to get better, anyways to clones look good with no wilting or anything so thats a plus.

anyways pics on me..................

damn no offense guys but good thing i can cure my own problems or they would be dead, anyways now a new problem.

during the night a top snapped of a plant, must have LST'ed her a bit too snug oh well what can you do, this will repair eventually?

clones still alive looking great cant wait till they root and take the females and flower them with the rest.

that is a good thing you can cure your own problems. maybe you have a green thumb. I hope I do as well.

I read that if you tie it up you can repair a snapped stem. Can't hurt to try it in any case. good luck!

nope stem snapped clean off like a razor cut really odd, i like solving my problems i always have, no one has ever helped me grow but as you see when i need help no one is around.

oh well if anything this thread keeps me informed of my situation when one occurs then i can see where i was last.

I refer to my log to see which day I'm on. It really is for myself as much as everyone else here. If anyone finds it interesting or useful then that's cool but I [like to think that I] would keep the log anyway if no one else read it.

i moved my plants lower from the light i think that may cure the remaining problem, havent looked at them today so tonight when i get home i guess ill know for sure whats going on.

the clones better hurry up and root its almost flower time :)

hey invision, when do you plan on flowering?

That's all I do when I'm sexing. If I'm cloning, I dip in in cloning gel first. Otherwise, same thing: a stick in a jar of water.

Really eh? That sounds too easy to work. Cool though, something I'll have to try next time I sex/clone.

hey dope, i plan to flower in about 2 weeks that will give the plants about 40 days of veg, i havent hooked up my scrubber yet or my cage fan so i cant flower just yet.

canuck- i didnt believe you could clone like that myself until i seen peoples pics of roots in the water.....pretty amazing.

the leaves do look quite droopy, but other than that they look great...

maybe next time make the soil mix a little more dry...should help :) good luck

sounds good invision.

i am going to flower my girls at about 45 days, im at 30 today and theyre starting to get big :):)

and let me know how your scrubber turns out. and what did you buy one or make one? i think i may need one too, these 3 girls are xxtra skunk and already one smellllls reallll goooood

you know dope its funny, my last grow which was 2 plants stunk my house up so bad i couldnt have company over that didnt smoke herb, the second you walked in it hit you right in the face like someone just burned the biggest blunt ever in your home. (no carbon scrubber)

now i have 8 plants and still no scubber and you cant smell a damn thing, my last grow in veg smelled so freaking bad but this grow you wouldnt even know it was there.

im going to make my own scrubber, i really need to get off my ass and install that damn fan but its so heavy im nervous about hanging it.

yeah my plants are heat stressed it looks like, i keep trying to adjust stuff but i think it comes down to there is just to much foilage on the plants and thus blocking any available cool air coming in.....fuckers......:)

hey invision, my plants looked a bit droopey like yours, so i changed my watering from little and often, to pretty much drowning them once every 2/3 days, letting them dry out good between waterings.
works great as long as the excess can drain off.

not saying its the same problem as yours but worth a thought....
poor air flow might also contribute, get that fan hooked up!

best of luck

hey babystar, that is how i water them then pick the pots up and feel the weight of them, then i know when they are dry.

anyways things are looking a whole lot better everyone seems happy now which is good, anyways here are some more pics

everything is back to normal.......well im running out of space but thats a good problem, check out the lads...............

maybe one day my thread will be popular :(

You have more views than some other threads in this forum. We're reading even if we don't always post comments man. :) Keep the log going! :thumbsup:

Those girls definitely look happier and from the looks of it their growth reflects that. That's a nice, bushy sea of green. :jointsmile:

i always need to complain about something its in my nature :)

i dont know if i can hold out much longer before i flower as things grow more rapidly, i should have cloned for sex a week earlier....oops hehe :)

Hi invision,

Just catching up with your second grow. Based on your last grow of just one plant, I can only imagine how schweet this is gonna look! So far it's looking really bushy in there. I will be looking up your LST techniques for my next grow. My buds are starting to fill in, but just grew too close to the light. This LST setup keeps the plants much further away.

I noticed that you're also using the Reflectix insulation. How do you like that? I picked up some of that for my cabinet too. I noticed someone on here recommend it. Since the local hardware store had it, and was a lot closer than the local hydro store, I went with the Reflectix for my cabinet.

Good luck with your grow!

hey joe,

the reflectix works awesome, its mylar with bubble wrap in the center so its super strong, and when your done with your grow you simply turn it around and use the other side....try and do that with plain mylar without ripping it.

i havent updated in a few days, honestly its just im lazy and my thread was down the bottom and i really havent had time to snap some pics.

i had to rid of one plant as the foilage was stoppoing the air from moving upward abovt the canopy, moved out the biggest plant with node stetching (looks male, males are always bigger) and solved the problem. i didnt want to waste it so i gave it to my mom as a nice house plant...lol...she thought it was funny.

they are going into flower tonight before my space gets packed and i need to sex them as the clones are moving to slow but have started to root on a couple.

well here we are, 35 days veg and this will be their first night in flower, they are bigger than expected i dont know if height will be a problem or not, but damn they look great after being in the dark for 24 hours so i could put lights on during the night.

if i get 4 females this cab will be jammed packed of bud, heres hoping :stoned:

so far so good, i lowered them to the floor so they can take the stretch so i hope i have enough room.

cant wait till they are done feel like this has been going forever, hope flower treats me good and dont have any issues.

im feeling no love here :(

Hey man, always gotta complain about something eh?! ;)

Hope you have some nice girls without any issues too man. Just a big pile 'o bud! :jointsmile:

yup 4 days for a reply i say things are slow :)

Invision its gonna look super sick when those plants touch the galss as they stretch and make flowers. Can you raise and lower it?

I wish I had some space to build a proepr glass cut hood. I've always loved that design.

My box is stealth cuz it has to be. not cuz I want it to be.

kd

nope i cant raise anything or lower it so i guess it is what is it......

man i hope i can sex soon cause i looked in there tonight and its jammed up in there, wish i could toss a plant.

oh well

nice log goin on man .
MORE PICS =]

I would worry a little about having big buds pressed against the glass... mold trap. Maybe you already thought about that.

Good point, canuck. Yea, hope you get that problem figured out. Next time, maybe cut a clone of them earlier so you can sex quicker. :)

It will sure suck to have to throw one away...especially if she is a she. :(

Good luck. I like the glass design too. Not always practical, but it has it's advantages.


The Fog :rastasmoke:

They defo looking good. :D Good luck with the stretch part. Not unusual for the ladies to double or triple in size.

Any signs of pistils or balls yet?

i was able to sex one plant using my 10x scope, i seen a single pistol hair coming out of one plant, all the others are still unknown.

if worst comes to worst ill take out the glass and put my 600CFM fan at full throttle but its not hooked up yet, this weekend looks like when that fan will be used.

my plants havent smelled at all, to the point you wouldnt even know they are there and there is no scrubber used at this point.

you will see tonight how jam packed it is in there its crazy, i didnt think 35days of veg or so would make them so big but i guess i was wrong, i think ill be ok for hieght but we will see.

things are the same just a little more crammed in there but hey i guess i could have other problems i dont want.

as you can see i out did myself on this one and vegged to long, next time ill flower at 4 weeks instead of 5 who would have knew huh....

as for the plants here they are.

Looking very bushy in there, invision. As you said, though, could have worse problems. Are you still going to sacrifice a plant or two, if they are all females?

I think I let mine veg for way too long on my current grow. Given all that was going on at the time, though, I couldn't have avoided it.

Good luck with the sexing!

hey joe,

theres no way i have all females i have 2 monsters that look like male with the really long node stretching unlike the rest which are tight and compact.

im going to chop off all the bottom leaves and branches tonight to get the shoots really going, i dont know if im aiming to high but i want to try and snag a 1/4 pound if i end up with 4 plants.

here hoping

A single hair? I had a plant that I thought threw a hair, but it was one of those "spikeys" that form at every node where the fuzzy edge had seperated from the spikey somehow. The plant later turned out to be male. Anyway, not saying this is the case here, just a caveat.

A nice fat qp... yummy. :baggy: (that's a 1/2 pound ziplock even though you can't tell from the pic :)) I hope you can pull that off as well! Best of luck.

You could always tie those bitches down when they get near the glass. That's going to be a nice sight no matter what you do though. :jointsmile:

holy shit i think they grew 2-3inches in a single night :eek:

they got trimmed tonight as no light was getting down there anyways, man this is looking killer cant wait until they bud.

Volker- your right on that i aint counting on a single hair just gives me hope more than anything....dont ruin my moment :p

canuck- im hoping for 3-4oz ill take more is possible, it really should look pretty crazy in there once bud starts up.
