My first grow

i stay with the same mix everyday, the clones get to aquafina, then
once theyre established they will get 1/4 strenth for a week, then 1/2 for a week, then full strength. my 2 closest to being done in bud are getting only water and the 2 that have a week or so at least to go are back on nutes, 1/2 strength now they were on water but i switched back cuz they seemed to need it. after switching bestgirl back, she actually starting to look better. Its gonna be o while on her. j5 is around 50% cloudy yesterday, and tallgirl is 1/4 to 1/3 cloudy, thinking of throwin both or maybe just one into the dark monday night til thursday then cutting and hanging, i want to see some amber trykes first though, does this sound good, i am so excited! the j5 sample was awesome, same was the opinion from my other tester, tasty too, the tallgirl sample wasnt as strong but had skunk/aphgan taste/feel though im no expert. j5 reminds me more of the newer citrisy flavored bud, which i happen to really like. May have to buy a quarter to get thru the rest of the wait.

interesting stuff, never heard that before ill read up on it and maybe try it out, excuse my ignorance jerry!!!
Looking good Deaner

found my first male plant yesterday, was a speed queen, oh well. And after a week plus, when i looked at that boys clones- none had any roots developing, so i looked a few more and sure enough, they aint gonna make it, glad i got seeds cuz i screwed up the cloning again. so i got some feminized white widow maybe i will start soon.

hard waiting on harvesting now, one plant, j5 appears to be a beast, buds look sick, and the weight of them buds is pulling them over, their too heavy for the branches to hold em up. its gonna be paradise in a glass bowl. the top buds the size of an egg and covered, looks like some top shelf shit. first one getting cut down is decent and should keep me away from j5 til its totally done.

added a speed queen to replace the male queen, its ok we love everyone even male queens, only god hates fags, but he got the hack. was a nice houseplant for the evening.

so in flower now:

bestgirl 62 days of flowering at least 3 weeks to go..
fatgirl 62 days 1-2 weeks to go
j5 62 days and getting out of the room next day or 2, its done
1 female bubblegum <week
1 feminized cheese 2 days
1 speed queen <day

to replace j5 will be next best in veg, they all look nice but probably a bubblegum or queen. the bigbuds are growing nicely, figure they go in when the oldest in flower go out. some in veg will be huge by the time they get into flower..

Deaner,

Sounds like you have the growing down. So lets work on cloaning.

It is a long process and needs once daily attention at a minimum, twice is best.

I think you have the initial cutting process down, the problem is my cloans can take 2 weeks or more to root, and some strains are easy or very hard to cloan. One thing I don't think your doing is you need to spray them with plane water 1 to 2 times a day.
Do not use a used spray bottle, it may have residue from its previous contents left in bottle and may hurt the leaves.
I found these tiny spray bottles in the make-up section at CVS (my big pharmacy retail chain) that work great, it puts out an almost atomized spray that is perfect for foiller watering and feeding for $1.00.

The requirements for cloaning are a warm humid enviroment ( Humidome needed )
very soft light ( 6500k, 23w, cfl, or cfls works great.
I actually made a box for cloaning and my mothers using 2- 2 bulb, 32 watt, t-12 shop lights, at HD for $10.00 each. And use 6500k bulbs $7.00 each.

Oh yeh one more thing.




WE WANT BUD PICTURES!!!!!!!

JG.

2 plants are hanging from the ceiling in a dimly lit, occasionally light goes on for 15 minutes or so, with circulating heater 70-75 degrees, and a small fan bounce-blowing up the wall below them. they suddenly look like their dying, weird. i think pics at this point would be kinda dissapointing but i took some yesterday. couldnt sit it in the dark for 3 days, got no unused room that is always dark, only space extra has mary growing in it. theyre hanging, but would they dry faster cut? im afraid of mold. and i cant see the difference from hanging for a week or just cutting and drying already trimmed into buds, is their a big difference? i have cut a couple branches and trimmed them and there drying in my cigar box that i dry all my fresh bought bags in. 3 seeds off j5 so far, im glad but does it mean i screwed up bigtime? not gonna lie, some of tall girl was dryed quick and destroyed. yuck.. gotta wait.

heres them hung
first is tall girl
next is upclose of the top of tallgirl
j5 is now in the next 2 pics

oh yeah i hope these look as sticky in the pics as they do here. i hope i didnt screw up any of the harvestin cuz this stuff looks to be pretty good. most of the plant is hangin and drying, but im a weak person. and i kinda need about a quarter dried and cured asap..

and that plant i was wondering if it was a hermie, fatgirl, well i can only hope her smokes just like cherry cola..cuz shes got alot of surprises under that skirt, she is out of the flower room, buds ripe or not, i think it is, it seed infested and will be a bitch to trim. any one think i should save the seeds, theres gonna be a hundred plus, i will toss em cuz i dont wanna grow tons of lolas later.

what do i do with the hermie bud?
better turned to hash or butter- i need easy
are all the plants that were in contact with it fucked?
how bout the ones that just went in to bud room? the one that has been next to it for 65 days??
i chopped the hermie fatgirl and hung it as individual branches, looks cool, all i had room to do with it. is it worth smokin? the bud looks good and the trykes cloudy 50%. ive found seeds in both tallgirl and j5, just when i think life is good.. and its all workin out..

is my whole flower room infected with hermie cooties? im stressed. need a smoke.. its all f-ing wet.. i need a beer.. im f-ing broke.. got weed to help with.. nope too wet.. i need instant easy hash making thats real good and real good for making the beer money appear..
