STILL DAY 29 Flower
Here are some macros for ya, CG. :)
The Fog :rastasmoke:
That pic of the porcupine leaf sounds cool fog! I don't remember if I've seen it. #6 seemed to look better for a bit (posts #38-39) then go back to how she was before. 11a1 looks a little sad in the last set of pics too.
Looks like the CFLs are doing a decent job when you see the macros eh? At only 4 of 9-ish weeks.

Hey, CG. Yea, here's that porcupine leaf I was talking about. Tracked it down. ;)Quote:

I'm not going to claim any unnatural success with these ones. They are not yet in any kind of drained container...and not the best to start out with. The 11's wil perk up a bit, tho...sooon, I hope. ;)
The Fog :rastasmoke:
Ok, I know this one will make some of you happy! :) Finally putting some reflective material into the cab. w00000t!
This stuff is different than regular mylar. It is dimpled and MUCH more durable. Should be good. Let me know what you think of it. :)
The Fog :rastasmoke:
More of DAY 29.
Here is the cab after putting in the new dimpled mylar. And some more close ups for those of you who are as big of a fan as myself! :hippy:

DAY 36 Flower
The Cab of life is working out stellarly. I really think the Mylar helped. The #11 plants are doing wonderful, as always, they are really starting to show their buds. The one in the middle is my favorite. It has 6 tops, I believe and they all will grow main colas.
[attachment=o124330] [attachment=o124331] [attachment=o124332]
To the guy who asked about the yield from CFL plants, the 5g per plant average on the last grow was not accurate due to the fact that those plants were barely rooted when they were flowered. They were also not topped, nor LSTâ??d so they didnâ??t have very many budsites. These ones in the COL now are much better. From the one plant, I will have 6 colas. If each of those colas grows like ONE of those previous plants, that means 6 plants in one. 6x5=30. Over one ounce per plant. Not too shabby. Thatâ??s an estimate of course. Who knows, it could be more or less.
Number six can kiss my a$$. Hurry up and flower so I can kill you and smoke you. Thank you and have a nice day.
[attachment=o124333]
The clear container that the plants are in in the Cab of Life are not ideal, but since we havenâ??t been able to locate a tray the right size, we have had to do the best with what we have. We also see no roots showing out of the hydroton, so they should be ok. We will fill the containers with more hydroton and remove they plastic covers on the rockwool as soon as we can get more rocks. We might put duct tape on the outside of those clear containers like we did with the main resevoirâ?¦weâ??ll see!!

Well while we wait on your pics I'm just celebrating St. Paddy's Day.
Watching some girls curling chamionships.
Have a Good St. Paddy's Day, All!

Shov, awesome, man. Enjoy your St. Patrick's Day! Mine isn't as leisurely as I'd like it to be, but it's not too bad. At least I have some time to post, ya know. :)
Well, you really called me out on that picture promise, huh? :o Ha!
Well, now I gotta come through with something, for sure. Thanks for helping liven up the boards, Shov. I hope everyone is having a GREAT St. Patrick's/Spring Break or wherever you are! :D
Well, here we go.
DAY 172/40
Day 40 of flower for the Cab of Life. Only one pic from today...it's a shame, eh? :p

Cab of Life - Day 4? Flower
[attachment=o125271] [attachment=o125272]
Buds look Nice. Coming along swimmingly. Number 6 is STILL looking ILL. She has brown spots. Looks to be like a magnesium def. We will attempt to give her some Mg soon...somehow.
[attachment=o125273] [attachment=o125274] [attachment=o125275]
Otherwise. They are a little over 6 weeks old. (Well, 7 according to the records...but who knows if they're right) We think they are a bit sativa or something because the last one we flowered went a little under 10 weeks before harvested. That was the last one out of the Cab of Life.
So number six will be ready in about 2 weeks, we think, but the elevens are longer.
Trichomes on six are much better than elevens. And six is more leafy as well. We will trim some of the afflicted leaves tomorrow.

I think it looks like P def ... I'm going to cheat and take a pic of this page in the grow bible since there's more typing than I care to do, and I can't type the images. :)Quote:

LOL, just kidding. That book looks awesome. I think you are dead on with the P def. diagnoisis. I have a picture somewhere with all of the leaves arranged in a sequence of degredation. I will look for that soon and post it. It looks almost exactly like the page of the book you just posted. Brilliant, dude. Brilliant. If I can give you rep again after this post, I will for sure. :greenthumb:
Edit: Damn, gotta spread some rep around first. I've been slacking. Maybe that's why I haven't gotten any. So selfish. Gosh! :p
The Fog :rastasmoke
i'm gessing mg and cal deff, if not in combination with moybdenum... but i could be mistaken. cal/mag should fix it up though, i thinkQuote:

Just a thought. Nice cfl grow.
Cool idea with the bottles, r00tdoctor.
I don't know how to manage nutes in a hydro grow, Foggy. I'm a dirt guy myself. Normal schedule of nutes in a pot o' good dirt and a little top dressing of wormcastings for a little treat.
Shov
Well if you're considering purchasing the bible I'll give you a short review of it. I definitely recommend it because it's just packed with useful info. I have read most of it except for Pests & Disease (I'll read it when I need it) and Breeding (just haven't read it yet). Sometimes things are repeated later in the chapter or in another chapter, and once or twice I remember thinking "I swear I just read this 3 times!" I know we're stoners, but still... :)Quote:

edit: oh yeah! the chapter on problems beats any of the sick plants guides i've found on the net. but the ones online have some real photos so they're an excellent supplement to that chapter. :thumbsup: You'll get your money's worth out of that chapter alone!
I forget about handing out rep all the time as well. What can ya do eh?Quote:

Even though the grow is finished, I love to talk about it like it is still going becuase the comments help anyway. I never thought about it being a P def until CG said it so KEEP THE COMMENTS COMING! :D
Shov, yea, it's not too hard to manage the nutes in a hydro sys. To add Mg & Ca, we just add Cal-Mag...and add a little more bloom nutes for the P def..etc. It has something to do with the pH blocking some of the nutes, I surmise...and also I've found that we've been flushing too much between veg & bloom which is unneccessary and you can just jump right into the bloom nutes at a lower percentage...no need to fully flush. Thanks.
CG, yea, well, sometimes us stoners need things repeated 3 times to remember it, so that may be a good thing and may be what they intended. LOL
Yea, I always type out the smileys. I hate using the mouse. I use all keyboard shortcuts and stuff too. :jointsmile :jointsmile:
The Fog :rastasmoke:
YOYO Green Fog! Thought I should take a look at your thread. See what you be doin... Anyways, I always enjoy chatting with you in chat. You definitely have some knowledge I would like to have concerning gardening!
I may have missed it... But how did the bud smoke??? :)
looks like your flowers are doing very good :thumbsup: hope you fix your deficiency before it gets too bad
Hey, High. Yea, it's good chattin' with ya...in chat...too. You should hang out in the Growing Sections more...there is much info in there about the Wubbulous World of Cannabis Gardening! :DQuote:

We placed another plant in this cab to start flowering. It is a new strain. :D Called Hashplant. It started from clone. There are two other clones in veg of this strain.
[attachment=o127575]
The Fog :rastasmoke:
That pic with the screwdriver made me laugh...In bree's head...today with thegreenfog we are installing a new intake fan, just a few cuts (remember to measure twice and cut once) and a few screws then presto you're done!....
Ha ha. Keep us enticed, dear fog!
:jointsmile: Bree
Not very enticing, these last couple weeks, eh? ;) Just incase anyone noticed, I took about a two week hiatus. Anyway, lets change the un-enticing...ness... :D
Heeeeeere we go!
Today on Growing with TheGreenFog:
We revisit our weird problem. Yellowing then browning of the leaves. Fading or like bleaching that makes it yellow. The dark green fadesâ?¦then gets brown spots (scaley) on the top of the leavesâ?¦typically at the center stem of the leaf..then spreads..and kills the leaf. Normally starts on larger fan leaves first. Then it starts to move onto the smaller leaves and budsitesâ?¦it hasnâ??t done much damage to the budsites yetâ?¦but looks like it might.
We cut the bad leaves off of #6 last time and it has continued to affect new leavesâ?¦:(
The Fog :rastasmoke:
Checking bad leaves under microscopeâ?¦
We think the problem might be related to over-fertilization and/or pH fluctuation causing nute lock outâ?¦Mg possibly deficient? But...it's probably that plus a P def as well. Thanks, CG.
Will flush with water at a pH of 6.0 and containing 25% nutrient solution.
The Fog :rastasmoke:
More... (not finished yet) brb
More... The last one is the sequence of degredation of the leaves.
Checking trichomesâ?¦
These are at 57 daysâ?¦or 8 weeks 1 day (regardless of what I said before) It's confusing...:what:
#11â?¦some amber. Lots of orange pistilsâ?¦
#6â?¦cloudyâ?¦
OH and I forgot a wideshot of the cab. :) Durrr.
The Fog :rastasmoke:
Hashplant is flowering already. We see pistils. I think itâ??s been 6 days since it was thrown into the flowering (COL) chamber. :)

peace out
GOOD luck jointmeister! :thumbsup: I reckon you've seen the JOURNAL OF A MADMAN if you're calling it a "Bodom box." Ha ;)
