I've really enjoyed your log. Thanks for sharing! :jointsmile: Bree
Good job BHB. :thumbsup:
I moved from closet to cab and I prefer the cab, if only it were a little larger. To each his own I guess.

Appreciate the kind words and thanks everyone!!!
Pic 1, some dried buddage
Pic 2, some frosty buds
Pic 3, cannibutter
First attempt at making butter. 1 oz manicured leaf heavy w/ trichomes and 1 oz bud for 1 lb butter.
This is a link on youtube for makin butter. Theres a 10 series cooking w/ marijuana w/ Hans + Hans thats quite provocative. You might have to register to confirm age since its adult (drug) content.

Is that the video where they spend 1-2 minutes on cannabutter and then the rest is just like a cooking show? Every single item I read on making cannabutter has a different time to simmer it for. How long did you simmer yours?
I did the butter for 45 mins. Everywhere I read/hear is a different time as well, but in the video they said a half hour, so i did 45 mins. w/e. Its not too bad. Though it tastes heavilly of ganja. :D
Well, I currently have 10 Oaxacan sativa seeds, and 5 Big Bud seeds.
I just now placed an order for nirvana blue mistic, and papaya.
I would like to get a grow going, maybe the mexican sativa... But i think im going to wait until I get my new seeds. I'm really anxious to give papaya a grow... and blue mistics buds look quite exotic and yummy.
inspiration for all closet growers. Really nice thread and props. Cant wait for your next grow. Any changes in stoor for the next grow setup or what, fill us in. respec
Ok boys and girls, time to start up the next grow! Seeds just came in today, and I shall waste no time. After parting with two 1/2 oz's too a cousin and a very close friend, pic 1 is my remaining stash.
In pic 2, I took a sterilite container and a hot knife and cut notches out of the side. Then I slide a wood dowl firmly in place and poked holes on each side of the plastic on both the top and the bottom of the container. Then I took string and tied the wood dowels in place tightly.
Next, tie the wood dowls at the top as seen in pic 3 leaving a couple inches os string between the two dowels.
Attach your light, add your cups, and secure them in the container w/ crumbled up paper towels (pic 4).
Go grab your seeds......
Next cut out drainage slit in your cups as seen in pic 1.
In picture 2, we have added soil, moisten the soil, and added seeds. Now you see a long strip of aluminum foil. This serves keep the warmth held in as well as the light. Seeds like warmth to germinate, and a plant requires a minumum of 1k lumen for life. This keeps that single 46w CFL's 3k lumen plus its warmth close.
Carefully wrap the aluminum around the wood dowel, then wrap the remainder of the aluminum around the container (pic 3).
In picture 4, we've formed the aluminum around the container, leaving an ample 6-8" hole in the top so the newly made nursery can breathe and is doesnt overheat.
What? What nursery? Simplicity, efficiency. Cheap, easy.
Stain: Blue mistic
Breemer: Nirvana
:jointsmile:
PS. you dont have to use a box, just like my ex -- "you can stick it anywhere" :P
And of course... you can line multiple containers up then just wrap all of them :) I'd do every other container w/ a light, or if in a square ares, a checkerboard pattern of lights. For my purposes, I only germinate 5 beans at a pop so each pack is good for two grows :)
PPS. it was funny... one of the other people who got the pleasure of partaking in the cali-o said "on a scale of 1-10, 10 being the 'highest', this shits a 22." :jointsmile:
Only 3 days in ground and 4 have already sprouted...
And such... I have started tidying out the closet, rearranging, and getting things ready. The nursery is also now seated in the closet for safe keeping of the babies. :thumbsup:
I was bold and got a nice little bubbler. I love a water pipe, and I love smoking a bowl, and this little buddy combines the best of both worlds. I chose this piece because it was the most unique one I saw.
This is some chopped up cali-o w/ a 2x magnifying lens infront of the lens for clearity/quality. 1 hit of freesh green cali-o outta this pipe is enough. By god, 1 quality quality hit and your done. :stoned: :wtf4: woah where am i?
Main reason for posting, baby 5 has woken up. Pretty good germ method. Trick is to blow air in twice a day and mister bottle 2-4 half squirts once a day. Doesnt get too hot plus the seeds know fresh water is readily available and reliable. Plus, gotta love nirvana beans.
Again, strain is Blue Mistic.
Well, I just upgraded to a 250w HPS.
Order's placed and this will be my new light.
Product ยป Econo Plus 250w HPS with Chrome Reflecto... - InsideSun
:thumbsup:
this is really helpful; thanks for all the detailed info; inspiring!
Hell yeah bonghitboy, did you feel like you took the plants down at the right time or could they have gone longer? Your thoughts appreciated. Askin cuss myne are around day 50 to 55 or so and a few are looking ripe. Prob is dont know what the hell strain i'm groin. Been givin em plain ol water for about a week now.
I felt i cut them perfect... I've been happy ever since too. :jointsmile:Quote:

They've definatly responsed differently than regular routine. I honestly, didnt want to post any picture because even I was ashamed as to how they're looking and wasn't sure if they'd pull through... But I've got em figured out now I believe.... And so now that I'm a few days away from flowering and they've returned to looking beautiful... Here's the BM update!
More...
Day 1 flower. Light goes on after the first dark period tonight and as luck would have it... The 250w HPS fixture came in today. So.... Update time! :thumbsup:
Went away for 4 days too... Only 1 plant needed attention so i pulled it to make room. 4 strong plants going into flowering. Believe 2 are female by pre-flowers. Other two unsure thinking 1 is male..... but its all good. :jointsmile:
Sick grow mate
fricking nice grow.
Had to post. Uneducated people make me laugh!!! I got into a conversation with a pseudo friend and weed came up. You have no idea how hard it is to bite your tongue when someone shits upon and/or goes apeshit "yuck" over homegrown. I look at them and say "someone's got to grow it... right? *shrug*." I must've laughed for 5 minutes shaking my head saying just shutup.... I'd never buy again unless I was seriously --forced too-- and desperate :P I'm a weed snob :( I grow better than I can buy ;) Its just funny....
Aussie, hydro... I appreciate your kind words! May your buds grow powerfully strong :thumbup:
day 6 flower or something?!?
Heres whats been going on...
Thank god I had had cabinet and am very familar w/ lst, scrog, etc. Out of 4 plants, 3 were male and I had only 1 female. At first I was very upset about this and then it hit me. I grew a small plant under 150 watts and had amazing results... So lets go back to my roots and LST this plant up to maximize both space but also light penetration like I use to do in my cabinet.
You can see in pic one, I took the entire plant and shifted all branches to be as close to unrestricted light as possible... and as close to the light as possible.
I only have 1 plant, I need to maximize yeild as well, so while LSTing I kept scrog princibles in mind too as well as pinching and supercropping. This plant was about 3 feet before I got ahold of her. Shes maybe a foot tall now
pic 3 is the main cola... shes been trained good.
I lowered the HPS --ALOT--
Very cool inches above the plant. Ive seen what a 150 in similar setup/proximity can do. Always adapt right? Well... I did. Drastically.
4 plants to 1 sheesh. *crosses his fingers*
This beauty better bloom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Shes responded very well to the training though thus far :thumbsup:
First budshot. :)
Day 19 flowering. Look at how much she's filled out since the other plants have been removed. With LST training + her stretch, she alone has successfully filled out almost the entire closet. :thumbsup:
Does that fan take care of your heat. I think that it would be decently hot in there. What are you at? Sweet grow thoe bro
Appreciate the questions as always. Heat is no problem. Actually, not even a thought. If you consider that the thermistat is set at about 65 (ambient temp), 1/2 of that big old closet is vacant and the warm air has ample ample room to disappate into, and the fact its only a 250w fixture... Add in the fact that the fan is angled in to not only be blowing across the bulb but also the plant... Its just no worry. I can stick my hand in there just a few inches away from the bulb itself and its maybe not even luke warm and feels fuzzy.Quote:

As always, thanks again... and hope it helps!
Day 21 flowering :)
Little yellowing and some bottom most leaves falling off. Usual. No worries.
She's taking to the training nicely indeed. :thumbsup:
cool good luck with her, i'm lookin at possibly the bubblicious from nirvana or the cali. o bud. cali. o sounds like a winner to me.
Day 30 flowering. She sure is one big bush :)
god damm. she IS 1 very big bush. and she looks very nice too.
:jointsmile:Worked in the dark. Pulled one side of the curtain down for the pic in a hurry! Seeing her bushyness out in the open last night gave me an idea... I believe theres a HEAVY sative influence because the plant is stretching. Upon closer observations the leaves are far more narrower than my previous grows and the classic marbling indica traits are not pressent. Unlike most other plants it does continue to grow and im past the typical two week major growth spurt. Also, buds are still less dense than prior grows and shes getting far more food than any previous grow either (6 damn caps per gallon and shes quite litterally eatting it up most ive ever gone was 3 w/ an occasional 4. plants also definatly responded differently as in she intentionally sheds lower leaves. im giving it FAR too much nitrogen this point into flower 3-12-5 dyndagrow complete soil/hydro nutes x 6 capfulls PER gallon?!? I may even be uping it again ( in perspective the huingriest plant ive grown was the c99, she started to nute burn at 4 caps. handled 3 perfect. cali-o is 2/3 i alternate ever wattering w/ a no feed flush seems to respond best. im stoned. rambling.
Point wasnt feeding ;)
I decided since its stretching so much and the closets full, ill toss 16k more lumen in. added a fan on the outside to aid in keeping the lamps cool and to blow even more fresh air in.
Shes stretching... i want everything thats there to bloom its ass off and grow fat and sticky sweet. :jointsmile:
I thinking for certain tho this also means im going to have to go 9 maybe 10+ weeks. But nirvana's not let me down yet so we'll see........ :thumbsup:
Day 43 flowering... I will not grow this strain prolly again. Far far too fussy. She got nute burn pretty bad but I believe I stoped the yellowing... and once again avoided tragidy. She's beginning to fluffen up now and get her frosty sugar coating.
This is a taste test. Again, not as strong as anyother strain I've grown yet. Again I suspose ultimately only time will tell for this one......... But some smoke is better than no smoke -- and wait till I show you the results of good training even with a shitty responsive strain.
Other gripe this grow.... Blue mistic? Where's the blue??? I'm about to start papaya seeds soon. :jointsmile:
well I must say shes looken mity fine there bro.
dam I bet you have bid fo a long time.
ya know with all your last three grows.
anyway good growing to you.
Good results with LST. Bad results w/ feeding. Bloody plant, i just had trouble understanding what this one wants. She def. got nute burn, but look at the main cola. Its huge. And even tho leaves may be yellow and crunhy, when i manicure its fine. Shes plenty sexy up close. :jointsmile:
PS. I did cut a branch and manicure, tossed it in the oven at 150. checked every ten mins till slightly crunchy. Im rocked. Im gonna let her go full sinsmilla but im happy as is. 1 more problem from here on out she gets the blade.
:chainsaw:
