[quote=zebulon]For deer repellent?? A shotgun....;)
There is not much i can do, don't want to use any repellent chemicals, so i think i gonna hang a few stinky socks around the plants, so they can smell the angry human, and run away...[quote]
You might try some Liquid Fence. It's natural, smells like shit, and seems to work. It won't solve all issues.
Nature intended for a branch to blow off a tree and hit the top of your plant and knock it off. Notice how tall your plants are getting? You get the same or more weed if you top once or twice, and you will not have to worry about your plants being seen because they are growing above their surroundings as much, and they will be less likely to break when they get rich with buddage.Quote:

One word of advice, or so: Some pictures didn't exactly look 100% indica to me, but if they are as you say, be real careful if they start to get rained on for a couple days. Bud rot is a bitch, it comes on fast and spreads fast, especially in indica varieties.
Hey Opie, thanks for you insight....:thumbsup:Quote:

But it could work for sure, if you live more down south, whit no (late) frosts....
Funny you say this, I just topped the smaller plants two days ago.Yes, the older ones are tall, but if i had topped em they would still get stretchy because they are not getting that much light as the smaller plants. When i was choosing the spot during February, i didn't thought that it would get so bushy. A few years ago i always used to top the plants, but to be honest i don't see that big difference in yield between topped and un-topped plants. I didn't topped these plants so they can get more light, but it's a good spot, nobody goes even near. You are rite about that the branches could break.But now there is not much i can do. If it's gonna look bad, i gonna support the plant whit a pole...Quote:

I think it was 2001 when it was raining whole September. It was a massacre, there where many victims.....Let's hope for a dry September.
Thanks again for checking in, your thoughts are always welcome ....:thumbsup:
You got anything going on??
I didn't know much at all about Big Bang, so I just did some quick research, and it does look like it has a huge production outdoors. I'm like you, I thought the PP would be your big producer, which is why I keep ordering PPP. But, it looks like you may have a nice arms race on your hands, eh?
I hope you have some nice weather in your finishing Fall months, so these ladies reach their full potential. I can't wait for the final wrap up, so I can begin planning for next year's outdoor grow!
And, thanks, zeb, for all of your answers to all of my questions! You're a good dude!
Hey Zeb,
Plants are looking great, really green and healthy, top job :thumbsup:
Hope you get good weather and all your hardwork is repaid in fat juicy buds :D
3 weeks until harvest on a AK-47 and a couple BBxNL. Lotsa outdoor plants going, and a bunch just ready to be sexed indoors. Other "medicinal botanicals" as well.Quote:

I went out to visit the plants today and they look nice...the remaining 3 smaller Hog x Shiva's are all girls, so are the Big Bang and one of the Trainwrecks....
The Power Plant looks strange, it supposed to be femmed, but there are no sign of pistils. Instead there are nodes coming out of the plant, where the pre-flowers should be....:wtf:
Here are some pix....
The 3 Hog x Shiva girls, which i all topped, in the first pic....in the second, the Big Bang(also topped), the Power Plant and a TW....
The Big Bang, the Power Plant and a puny Trainwreck....
zeb, dude, those are some real beauties! I can't take my eyes off the Big Bang! She is a MONSTER! As for the Power Plant, it is a close 2d. As for its sex, it's really hard to tell. That first up close picture seems to show some claw like formations at the node lower than the focused area; and, I don't know what to say about the protrusions you focused on - looks like they may just be additional leaves. I hope your PP shows fem though - of course.
I think if you took the BB and the PP out of the picture, you would be really impressed with the Hog x Shiva and the Trainwreck, but having the BB and PP to compare the others too, really makes them look like runts. You just have to quit comparing them to see them for their own glory.
Another couple of really awesome nature photos you have shared with us! Thanks! That 2d picture showing the bee climbing up the backside of that flower is truly incredible. You do have a good eye for photography!
Be good out there, my friend!
hey zeb lookin good but i just have a Qestion or two about ur pur cfl grow how big was ur box h x d x w and when did u start lst them cause looked threw ur log i couldn't tell when u started them thanks in advance
tokr
Hey, sure Dude....it was c.a. 20h x 10d x 10w Inch...
Start lst when the plant has already like 3-5 nodes and the stem is still soft&green....or the most simple way is,when you transplant your plant into a bigger pot, plant it diagonal and as it grows you just adjust the growing tip whit tying it down the way you like, every few days...:hippy:
Everytime i come back to your log......your plants look better.....whats the deal with that......im just joking.....your grow is awesome......i wish i had the room for an outdoor grow......but it kinda hard to hid more than 4 plants on my 100x100 lot. Good luck....sh*t looks good....man i really wish i could just keep my outdoors in the open....my lawnman would find them in a sec if they werent hiding in the small palms in my garden.
Maybe in the next couple of days I can get some quickies posted. Nothing special to look at really, except I can't believe how well the BBxNL is filling up with buddage.Quote:

Do it man, it would be great to see some pix....i always enjoy some nice grow or nature pix....BBxNL?? sounds good, i was thinking i might try out some oldschool NL next year...other thing is i would like grow is some Mr.Nice genetics - g13xskunk or g13xwwidow, also critical mass would be great...or wwidow, or SSH...oh carp...there are so many good strains...TH.seeds SAGE, Serious seeds Ak47 or White Russian, Paradise seed's Sensi Star....Quote:

OK, here's both:Quote:

hey zeb i was hoping u could tell me whats wrong wit my one plant it has some funky coloring on it. but heres some of the other ones thanks in advance
you should post that in the plant problem section..
nice log zeb, can't wait to see everything play out :jointsmile:
Hey, thanks Greenatik...:thumbsup:
Your outdoor plants look healthy and vigorous....must be lots of work to water them....sad that the pilav had lost it's leafs and got scorched, but it still will be a great smoke for sure....keep it up Dude...:jointsmile:
Tokr....Greenatik is rite, you should post in the plant problems section, Stinky or somebody can help for sure....but if i had to guess, i would say the soil is too soggy, too heavy not enough drainage and ph problems - nute lockout :wtf::D....i would transplant that plant into a bigger pot, whit good quality potting soil that has a ph around 6.5, and mix at least 25-30% perlite in it....make sure that excess water can leave the pot during waterings...but this is just a guess, you should listen to Stinky....she has seen it all...
Very nice log and so enjoy all the photography! That is a great idea to take your camera with you! Around here, people put cat shit around plants and trees they don't want eaten! Like Opie said, whatever smells like 'shit'! It is most likely cats! Anyway, the only problem is, the little rabbits, etc. don't like the cats; but the coyote's love them-not sure if the coyote would eat the precious plants though?
Have heard no animal will go around Wolf piss- so stoke up and piss a lot! Just joking--some people actually sell it on line to keep all critters away! i don't know if it works. But the man up the hill from me claims he has a wolf in his mix of dogs--I have not seen a coyote since that wolf (or whatever it is) appeared!
Thanks for the education! :thumbsup::thumbsup:
Yea, I love the technique only I did it on accident the first time and just kept it going.Quote:

Painretreat...: Thanks for the education! :D:thumbsup:
McDanger.....: The PP is a girl, checked today....in fact all the remaining plants are girls....:woohoo:
So i was visiting today, there were some heavy rain and winds few days ago and sadly the older Hog x Shiva has fallen over...nothing dangerous, i supported her whit sticks....at least the lower branches get more light...nature's way of lst...kind of...:wtf:
The younger HOG x Shiva's....growing nicely...all 3 are girls....:jointsmile:
Trainwreck 1.....
The Power Plant....became a girl...the strange nodes are not spreading...she looks nice, and has that lovely scent...i love her...:jointsmile:
And finally the Big Bang....there is not much i can say about her...enormous....:stoned:
I have measured the soil ph and it's between 6-7 everywhere....:thumbsup:
That's it for today....take care peeps...:hippy:
Thanks for the update. Great lookin so far :thumbsup::thumbsup:
wow its been a bit since i've looked at your log.... and all i have to say hands down those are some of the best look plants i've seen in a while for the outdoors. Your Big Bang looks like a ganja cousin IT from THE ADAMS FAMILY. Your Power Plant looks reckless all in its self nvm the smoke thats going to come from it :) Your train wreck is looking might nice along with your HOG x Shiva's. What i would do for a wiff of the PP right now. lol
Good work, Zeb!
Thanks guys....:thumbsup:
Here are some nature-travel pix....enjoy....:hippy:
Some more lower res pix....have a nice day people....:hippy:
Wow great pics zeb, i'm gonna email my girlfriend that pic of the spider, she'll sh1t herself lol
Plants are looking great too mate, what can i say about the big bang? Thats a beast! ;)
Wow, nice pictures and nice plants. That big bang is doing great. Looks like she'll yield well. Is that person on the sailboard anyone you know? Ahh, the good ol days... trying to sailboard in 60 MPH winds. I wish I still had my board.
Hey Hudson....thanks for the visit mate....:thumbsup:
I think and hope too that the BigB gonna yield nicely....she'll be the top yielder imo...it's a mix of Skunk, Northern Light and El Niño....can't wait...
Opie...no that's just some guy on the sailboard, i don't know him...hey how is your finger?? did the thumbnail fall off??
/htt6j7
no its not true it will still get the right amount of light to keep it in veg. but it might work if you flower it for about 3 weeks inside then put it out after that. you could always scope out a spot and make sure that it is well shaded for part of the beginning or end of the day so it gets the right amount of time to bud.Quote:

Amazingly, I think since the left half looks healthy it's trying to grow instead of fall off. We'll see.Quote:
