JOURNAL OF A MADMAN - CAB OF LIFE

So this log is a little haphazard...lol...just kinda threw it together, and now I gotta keep up with it! Who knows what will happen when/if I do the NL & BG thread. :eek:

That first pic in the post above is just of some shake that was inevitably smoked. :smokin:


Other note:

Number six...is the sickly looking one in the cab. The other two are number 11 and seem to be growing at a similar rate.

Number 6 has been a runt/problem child ever since the first original number six started about 142 days prior to this post.

Now, this doesn't mean that she's getting axed just yet (let's not get carried away), but it does mean that little to no adjustments will be made to accomodate her seeing as the others are doing well.

Then, in a couple months, she will be dead and gone, and her cousin, #11 will take over the family's legacy.......and #6 will become.....ash in a :pipe:. :D:D

Next up, Flower DAY 14 ;)

Hey TGF, that avatar pic is pretty sweet! How do you get so close? Do you just have a decent camera?

6 does look pretty homely, but if you have the room and lights in there there's not much point in killing her. At the very least you'll get some more material for hash, oil, or butter.

Is it normal to see pistils like that in 10-14 days of flowering? Ours are moving along more slowly, but for one we're using soil and second we put them into flower long before they were ready. I'm guessing that's why they're taking longer anyway.

How was the shake you sampled? Did you catch a buzz? :rasta:

And YES we want to see harvest pics!

Hey, man. Thanks. Yea I love those closeups of them nice flowering babies and their trichs! :greenthumb: Use the macro feature, don't zoom, and it also helps to have a decent camera...what do you consider decent? :)

I have an awesome calyx pic that I was using as my avatar for a while. I have it in a thread called Calyx something if you wanna search it.

Yea, not gonna kill six just yet, but will surely not grow another one of her. I'm regretting not keeping around some of the clones from the others because the whole point of all the labeling was to see which strain was better and make the mommy out of that. We'll see how good 11 is...*fingers crossed*

Yes, it is normal to see pistils that soon. These took until 10 days or so but they can come in as early as 7 days and as late as 21 days!

^With that being said, the plants are considerably "old" because they are clones off of plants that are "old." The seeds were planted 142 days before this day and any there are no original plants left besides the plants in the main flowering room at the time. All other plants are clones and are even showing pistil-y preflowers even in the veg room. They are "mature."

The shake was...meh...and of course sampling things is hard when you smoke a bunch before hand. I sure don't have the patience to NOT smoke all day (when I 'can') just to wait to test some smoke...I dunno. Will update more on smoke potency later when some buds are fired up.

Harvest pics...ohhhhhhhh sir, just you wait! ;)

Be cool, buddy.

Hey, seems like we're chatting in all the same threads eh? ha ha.

I have a Samsung Digimax 360 and I would consider it "ok", but it probably is a decent camera. I think of a digital SLR as a good camera, would love to get one of those one day. So no zoom, macro, point reeeaally close and shoot? I guess I haven't tried really close photos with the macro mode before. I'll have to try it out tomorrow.

Right, now that you point out that they are from mature clones then that answers it for me. I was comparing to ours which were forced into flower early.

Yeah today my friend was here and he has some great bud right now. I was absolutely out of it basically all day.

I'm going to go search for that calyx pic of yours. I think that this hobby is going to lead to a bigger interest in photography for me.

-canuck :D

(I think it's only in the grow log forum that I can't attach files, can't do it in this thread either)

YO Mr. FOG

you gotta get some of those lights closer.. side lighting

SIDE LIGHTING!!!

iloveyou

~Knowm~

Closer? They are one inch from the top. Any closer, they heat stress. Need better ventilation first. Mabye after that. Mylar will be next. Possibly yank some side lighting out of the main veg, but...(sigh) ...mylar.

Thanks.

P.S. Peep the teaser in the main JOURNAL. ;)

yep you need to mylar or spray paint or something frog dog (lol, my dog's nickname; good one bear!)

just found this one fog, good job! you're realy getting it down now, huh?

hope you have a happy new year!

love, kp:p

Hello Mr. FOG...

You are right.. I did not explain myself well..

What I ment to say, LOL.... is that the entire surface of the light or at least the entire surface of ONE side of the light should be 1 inch from the plant..

NOT just a single point of the light..

does that make sense?

Basicaly... Imagine your girl friend is the plant... and you are the light... stand next to her... and get as close as you can with as much of your body as you can without getting any semen in her... the semen is analogous to burning the leaves :)

You have a very perrrrty set up... BULBS hanging vertically along the side of your plants will do OWNDERS.. you don't even need to purchase more bulbs just take a couple from the top and bring them along the side...

Hey, peeps. Been a while on this thread.

Yea, thanks, KP. Hope I will be able to update with some mylar pics today. :)

Things are getting smoother...kinda. ;)


Knowm, yes, it makes sense. I will keep that in mind, thanks. I'm gonna give it a go without the light fixtures having to move. Then, maybe one with adjustable, close-talking, but non-sperm-injecting lights. ;)

In an attempt to keep this concurrent with the Main thread...

DAY 14 flower...I think. :)


Cab of Life

Ok, well, we have our three subjects in here, they have been LSTâ??d and flowered back on day 133, I believe. That would make them about 14 days old {in flower} as of today.

They are definitely showing sex and starting to bud. You can see the white â??hairsâ?? (pistils) in the pics. There is also a number 11 still left over from the BodomBox in here. We have attempted to follow the trichome color on this one to harvest it. It is taking foreverâ?¦ This also worries us because that means our Mother plant will also take that longâ?¦and the two plants in this COL on the right side are also number elevensâ?¦sigh.

Maybe we can speed things up by breathing on them more oftenâ?¦
