hey fugitive....i had the same problem and found some devcie at the local nursery that sticks in the soil and releases water little by little over a few weeks time.....if u can find a nuresery around check it out they should have something similar
those are some nice looking plants fugitive...
pretty soon I am going to be growing with CFLs from start to finish. How many CFLs are you using and what is the wattage of each. Also, what is the light spectrum of your bulbs (warm white - 2700k vs. cool white - 5000K)
I would appreciate any help you can give me as this is my first time growing and I really hope my plants end up looking like yours.
ok so I went back and read a little closer after I posted. From what I could tell you have two 21 watt warm bulbs and a 125 watt warm bulb along with one 11 watt cool bulb and a 125 watt cool bulb.
do you have all these lights on your plants at the same time?
Thanks Mand and Machiavelli fingers crossed I will find one tomorrow :)
Towel the setup that you have now I believe is made of cool white spectrum fluoros? if so then that will be very good for the first month or so :) What I have in my grow room at the moment is two 125W warm spectrum Envirolites purchased here www.starlitesystems.co.uk you will have to buy a E40 ceramic lamp holder, ask by e-mail. And the two 21 CFL are just there for the Ooomph :D although im pretty sure theyre not doing much.
lol thats cool you remembered what I have...yes they are cool white floros. I am still not sure whether I want to try to flower under CFLs. I am going to the hydro shop today so I can get a price on an HPS setup.
Put an update in before you leave!!:D
I looove your updates..!:D:D
Another sad update it just isnt my day today been travelling to garden center after garden center on my bike with no luck of finding a watering system, I even went to homebase first trying to tell them that it even existed was a pain in the ass ! then waitnig for response from 'manager' which was there is one, but we don't sell it lol! pissed me off..I guess I just live in a shitty South London area which have dumbass SHOPS! grrrrrr... Does any one know an alternative? is there any way of watering my plants with say something home made?
hey would a bucket of water work? i mean like under the pot ?
So that the roots can suck up the water??
Oh man, yet another setback :( now I am not allowed to have the lights on (fire, fire balabbalnbl) so what should I do leave it a window sill? or harvest it now?
Here is an update for ya :) the burn at the edge of the fan leaves is that nute burn or lack of nutes?
I am also growing Blueberry as one of my strains and have been for the last 18 months or so! but my Blueberry looks alot different then your? here is a pic of my Blueberry at 7weeks into flowering!.......it's almost completely purple or atleast 85%.........how many weeks left do you have on the one your growing?
things just keep going wrong for you dont they, how much light does your windowsill have, i also live in south london and its not exactly bright at the moment, but you could give it a goQuote:

He's been away for a week now, so he doesn't even have a clue how she is doing!:p
lol, I wonder how she is doing
I could ask him what he thinks when he comes by my house later..!:p
He's so fucking nervous!!:p:D
Or maybe he will log on soon?:)
o so you know him personally
Yeah!:)
So, I think I might even get to have a puff of his MJ??:):p
Hello everyone :D my plants last time were like 4 or 5 weeks into flowering including the first two weeks :) so pretty much the peak is now isnt it ? when im gone and all they get is shitty window sill light.. even worse they are on the kitchen table because my mom wouldnt let me have it in the window in case someone sees it while I am gone. I just hope this plant is the survivor I always believed her to be :D I have had two dreams about her (wet ones) one were there is no bud only stalk when I return :( and the other it has fatened alot :) but at least this will prove something in the end :dance: PP you will have to buy the weed :p no OK you can have some if there will be any at the end. 2nd of January very excited... :rasta:
lol, ive had dreams like that before. one was where me and a mate were having a joint on my balcony, where I did my outdoor grow and he dropped some burning ash onto a plant of mine. For some reason the plant burst into flames and all I was left with was a black stem, I touched it and it crumbled, nearly shat myself that night and woke up sweating like a pig, good luck.
Just save some of it!!:p
I also had a dream about mine (GOOD).. It was when they first had started growing.. I just went into the grow room, and they were done!:D
I belived it when I woke up, BUT to my dissapointment, it was just a dream!:p
OK It worked out fine :) This just goes to show that the cannabis plant does not need top conditions all of the time/ consequences less bud & hermies :D but judging by the pics they look exactly the same as when I left :cool: which isnt that bad because I thought they had died a long time ago.
I will probably continue flowering Ms. Blueberry for 3 maybe 4 weeks all dependiing on male flowers :) C99 I will probably keep much longer.
I LOVE 2006 :D 2005 really really sucked, worst year ever, I was just so unlucky all the time so im hoping it was just the year and not just me :) so happy new year to you all :D
Oh yeah you cant really see trichomes with these pics but they are still there ;)
YAY!:D Your back!:D They are still looking great!:DQuote:

Sorry for the doble post!:o Don't know how tat happend..!:o
Oh, well!:D
That double post was most uncalled for :mad:
I said I was sorry.. Ok? Now I won't share my weed crop with you when you get back up here!!:p LOL!:D
But, you still have to share your's with mine!!:D
hello everyone :) My blueberry mama is smelling out the house ;) a good smell mind you its very hard to define, but I have once squeezed the bud (not so hard) and my finger had some trichomes on it so naturally I took a bite ! :) and it was very fruity :D
I am not going to aim for more than 1/2 ounce I dont think it will be more but I don't have scales sooo hmmm.. ill guesstimate :thumbsup: or find someone with scales :p not too sure I want to.
I am going to leave it another week and see where it is at then, what do you guys think ? how long should I leave it? there is no one old in the house so we dont have a microscope is that what I need to see trichomes? My Cinderella IS smelling so nice it is one of the nicest smells (orgasm) its like pineapple with slight skunk smell but not much skunk smell more pineaplle like 85% pineapple smell :D .
tata, fugitive
I just read your entire post very nice grow I'm shocked it's your first. I'm preparing to start my first grow with a friend very shortly and have been reading up as much as possible. I don't remember reading this sorry if this questions already been answered. What is the total wattage you have had on these plants? Also how big is your grow space (in feet)?
Looking good!:) What have you done to your digi scale?? :mad: It was a nice scale!:)Quote:

Yes PP do you remember the time I was cleaning up my act ? well I took all my stoner shit and gave it to a friend. I wanted to never smoke again because I was smoking myself stupid (lazy, speech impedement lol and I cant remember any more) ;) Now I only do it in weekends.
Oh, yes, now I remember! They guy who didn't smoke anymore?? I thought you were getting it back though.. Damn shame..Quote:

I really LOVE the blueberry strain I took a sample and quick dryed it in the oven and despite that it gave me a nice buzz as well as tasting decent, I am sure that I will grow it again but probably from Dutch Passion or DJ Short.
The C99 I have yet to try smoking, I am sure that she would benefit from being left two or three weeks more but I am starting my MasterKushxLowRyder grow and I need the lights. C99 gives off the nicest aroma and I am hoping for a similar taste, I will probably grow it again but would like to try a hybrid off it such as Grapefruit from femaleseeds.nl.
Aww.. I'm expecting a sample waiting for me...!:rolleyes:
looking good , real good
Thanks mobay :)
I will be harvesting them this way -

Here is how I read on the internet to process for sweet, smooth, clean burning tomatos...
1. Cut the bud at your desired location. DO NOT CUT OR TRIM AT THIS POINT EXCESS FOILAGE. The leaves still contain saccharides which need to assist in the sustainment of THC production.
2. HANG IN DARKNESS! Do not expose your fresh buds to light anymore than is needed.
3. After two days, carefully, in dim light, spend some time cutting all the fans as close to the stem as possible.
4. Hang in dark 2 more days.
At this point the buds will feel crunchy and dry...but they are not. DOn;t be fooled.
5. Now cut all unwanted stems and place in brown paper bags, loosley, and roll the bag up. Keep in dark.
6. Every day, open the bag and let it air out for about 10 minutes. Re roll it shut. DO this for 5 days.
7. At this time all external moisture is gone and the stem will bend easily...but still be too green to snap.
8. I then place the buds in jars and leave them in darkness. You will have no mold issues at this time. Simply remove the top every other day. Let stand for 5 minutes or so...reseal and redo in 2 days.
The longer you do this the smoother the smoke, the less weed / hay smell and the natural oils will over take the green smell and your tomatos will smell as GOD intended them to.
Many ways to cure...this is just one I read on the net.
