Congratulations on all of your efforts on her. I look forward to continuing to follow her progress.
Any update on the outdoor crop? I know that 2 mile hike must be exhausting with supplies, so I can understand the lack of an update. Good luck with them too!
Aloha
ah its not too bad just was getting anxious to not to have to hand water them anymore at that distance, but that means the updates will indeed be more spread out now. oh well pilav will dance around and entertain in between :D
peace! thnx for stopping by bro
i just pruned off a few fan leaves, a couple every day it is getting too bushy for the lower buds to get any light
gave first feeding with budswel today, 1/2 of rec dosage, and 3/4 dosage of the PBP. went a little light w/ liquid karma just to see how it likes the guano, i have read that certain guanos can be tricky with coco so we will see what happens
anyways heres a quick snapshot of day 23 of 12/12

peace my friends :jointsmile:
well an update ... outdoor plants look like complete shit they were almost all dead but came back to life with the watering .. hopefully they make it through it
here's pilav .. seems to be loving life and the budswel .. finally starting to smell a little bit and producing thc .. :woohoo:
25 on 12/12

peace everyone
greenatik, that last picture is mad. I mean you have a sweet subject to work with, and the camera has a good focus on it. Nice work all around, my friend!
Greenatik, Pilav she is one beautiful Lady and I would like to smell her sweet perfume.:rasta:
Nice photos. I wish my photos were like yours.
Shov
thanks friend! i have to snap 4 pics to get one in focus because I am usually too stoned, and when im stoned I am a little shaky!Quote:

and 1 more pic just for fun
[attachment=o190606]
so I feel like a complete idiot. i was so high last night and my best bud convinced me to snip off a tiny bud to try. but being high, i accidentally snipped off the entire bud branch. i really can't believe I did that, considering that branch could of potentially been an eighth. :mad:
w/e at least I got high from it
on another note - the outdoor crop is looking BOMB. two of my plants are up to my nips, not including pot height. also seems as if i got 6 / 8 females but am waiting a bit longer to tell for sure
and i have poison oak again... ARGGHH .. 7th time in two months
time to get high after working on the crop for the last 5 hours! peace :jointsmile:

nice lookin buds... I lst'd for the first time this year on a indoor grow. I only did 2 plants from seed, 1 turned out male the other was a true lady. I tied down the top for a while then when then lower shoots caught up with the top I tied them down also. I then put her outdoors (too early at the time) she started to flower due to not getting good light so I brought her back indoors and turned all my grow on 12/12. now I've got a crap loads of tops on this 1 plant it looks like a mini christmas tree lot... at least a dozen huge colas and a bunch of smaller ones. can't wait to do more expirimenting with lsting it does work so keep it up.
later D:S5:
nice plants. They sound like good strains. <G>
Those are some really nice lookin' plants starting outdoors, greenatik! I'm glad to hear your other outdoor grow is going well. Sorry to hear about your poison oak, bro - that stuff will wear you thin, but at least it should keep the snatchers away. Pilav is absolutely insane! I can't wait to hear a thorough smoke report on her!
Take good care out there, my friend!
oh ya, sorry about your poison oak also. togh breaks man.
i posted this in the plant prob section as well. thought maybe someone would see it here i need a quick answer
heres pilav today, perfectly healthy yesterday. all the leave ends are crispy and there are orangish/yellowish spots on the leaves, and the ends crumble or break off when i touch them. the temp is 78 and i think it might be lockout or over nuting
[attachment=o191225]
things are not going so well friends.. I have decided to give up on my original outdoor grow.
I went to see them today and after receiving 2 gallons a piece just 3 days ago, 2 of my plants were dead, and the rest were on the way. The heat is unbearable in this location, and they all have showed signs of heat stress as soon as it hit 90. The drip did not work out as planned -- I hypothesize that because the drippers are only putting out a gallon every day, the entire pot isn't getting soaked in contrast with hand watering that same gallon.
A few plants maybe salvageable, but I have completely redrawn my outdoor strategy, and have much higher confidence, due to easement of watering, in the new location. Also plan on doing an outdoor sog when 12/12 is nearing using a natural drip that looks somewhat promising.
Pilav is, well, hopefully getting better. I hope the flush does the trick.
[attachment=o191336]
Dude, I'm sorry to hear about the outdoor heat drying out your beauties! I hope your new idea will pan out. And, you can't be too disappointed in your outdoor when you gaze into Pilav's eyes - I can't keep up with the number of eyes she has, but they all appear as bursting stars. Absolutely brilliant, my friend!
thnx for stopping by shovel - I am excited about the new strains, mr nice (g13 x hashplant), purple voodoo, and the black kush. hopefully they will survive the heat, but they do have much nicer conditions. and the poison oak is now a thing of the past because the new spots don't have it. :giggity:Quote:

well, since this is a log, I'll update, but it's not very pretty. going to flush pilav again real well then just give it PBP and a tiny bit of molasses till she finishes up. I am pretty sure that the guano was the culprit, combined with a fan going out rising the temps considerably over that evil 12 hour dark cycle.
[attachment=o191561]
[attachment=o191559]
my main bud is scorched !! :(:(
[attachment=o191560]
i am so stoked right now. my new outdoor spot is looking promising. i went back to see my old outdoor crop and pick up some supplies. its been like 2 weeks since my plants had received water and they looked real droopy then - 3 confirmed females that didnt look too bad got transported to the new spot. it was a bitch, and 2 of them got supercropped accidently. but we soaked them real good and within 2 hours they were completely upright and the leaves were shooting straight out. my buddy and i were having a hard time differentiating them because they looked like completely diff plants
royal purple x master kush clones (CLIMATIZED for 30 years) on their way to that spot as well. auto drip on a timer and i never have to check on them. one more night trip out their w/ more soil and goodies, and another day to clear out and plant clones and it will be set
oh yeah pilav is looking bomb. finally was able to check my ph and it was 7.2, so I got the ph stuff to correct it down to 6.5. her first watering with properly ph'd water will be tonight, but it already looks 10x better since the burn. a lot of hairs changing colors and the buds are swelling. definitely going to harvest something off of her.
srry for the essay, peace
these pics r from yesterday, so 42 days from flower, 43 today.
any input on thoughts on a guesstimate to time left is appreciated! i want the perfect 50/50 and my buddies got a nice magnifying lens
pilav is definitely recovering strongly, and besides the ugly burnt leaves it seems to be doing well. all the little new leaves on the buds are green and my ph has been perfect the last few days.

2 more. my gods gift outdoor got topped by some kind of animal.... like the 10th plant that has happened to this year. but its ok because they usually do a might fine job of topping and the plant recovers nicely. the gods gift has new shoots and looking fairly well besides minor insect problems and underfed. nutes and pesticide coming soon
[attachment=o192393]
[attachment=o192394]
greenatik, it looks like you have made a mighty fine recovery since my last visit of your thread! I missed a lot of action on Pilav, but she seems to be looking much better now you have your ph problem worked out. This board is a great resource of highly intelligent, educated, and experienced minds to find a solution in a serious time of need! Glad you were able to find the help you needed in this instance to salvage a true beauty of a plant!
Your new outdoor location sounds amazing. And, all of your new strains are really making me anxious to get my beans in the mail! I can't wait to get more plants going! I hope you have the same success outside as you did inside with Pilav!
Good luck, my friend! Be good out there!
Thanks for stopping by again Jake! Yes, this board is filled with experienced growers and I was able to pinpoint my problem within a day or so, thanks to Stinky of course :DQuote:

Haven't decided if I am going to do a small HPS w/ glass shield or stick to CFL
So, what beans did ya order? It is always a lot more fun working with named genetics, especially if its a strain that has what your looking for. I just got some G13 x Hashplant, but only 4 beans out of 14 popped. must be the genetics as i've never had such a low success rate.
I'll be stoppin by your log soon jake,
peace! :jointsmile:
I can understand the propensity to over-fertilize - I have to restrain myself all the time, especially since it's been raining just about every day following my watering my plant with bloom ferts. It's just like washing your car right before it rains - very frustrating.
As for the beans I am expecting, I ordered Nirvana's Pure Power Plant, New Purple Power, and Papaya; they were shipped by seed-boutique back on June 10th, and I have not received them yet; I'm starting to think they aren't going to make it - again my luck! I'm keeping my fingers crossed though.
Sorry to hear about the low germination rate of the G13 - I just read about someone else really wanting to try a G13 cross; I haven't read/heard much about it, but it must be pretty darn sweet!
I look forward to your visit to my log, my friend! I hope you like my plant's progress!
Be good out there!
just a couple upclose shots 4 fun. messed around with a magnifying glass and couldn't get better pics than just with my camera's macro setting. i'll have to get a jeweler's loupe

greenatik! It looks like you answered the magnifying glass question, eh? Your camera is much better than mine though, as you have some sweet lookin' trich, pistil, and hair pics! You've always had some sweet photography within your log!
I can't wait for more pictures of your outdoor plants, and Pilav is looking outstanding following her dehydration. I still believe your Pilav looks much sweeter than MIQ, and seems to be developing much better than MIQ. I think Pilav is almost 2 weeks ahead of MIQ on flowering, so maybe the mini ice queen will be able to catch up - if she ends up lookin' 1/2 as hot as Pilav, she won't be hurtin' for suitors (I'm not into swingin' whatsoever, but I will have to share her with some friends and family!)
I hope all is well with you, my friend. Have a great remainder of your weekend! Be good out there!
Time for some plant photos? The bud shots are looking very good.
Shov
yeah sorry about the lack of photos on my outdoor crops... i even brought my camera to all my spots yesterday, but was so busy fixing my main drip line (a deer must of tripped it) that I forgot to snap pictures. I was excited to come back and see them all on drip for 5 days to find my reservoir dry. Its all good though now. I wish I had taken pictures of before/after these plant's revival. One plant was so dead that my partner bet me one of his plants that it wouldn't come back. 5 days later and I got myself a new plant!
lesson learned: a plant can be revived long after signs of heat stress and extreme droopy leaves. but does increase my chances for hermies
oh and my god's gift, the last outdoor plant i posted, is doing insanely good. the new tops were about 3 inches tall on my last visit, and yesterday, they were about 6 inches. All was good until I stepped on my bag of soil, in which 500 - 1000 fire ants were underneath. my legs were covered within 6 seconds and they got all over my plants. I dont think they will be a problem but does anyone know if diatomaceous earth will rid them?
Next visit I will for sure have some pics to share :thumbsup: im going on vacation for the 4th, for 5 days, so it might not be until after that.
