Good info. Thanks bro. <3
I'll go ahead and start a flowering schedule within the next couple of days. Should I trim before I flower? That'll increase bud production on the lower bud sites, correct?
Should I wait for her to perk up a little more from the transplant venture? She's still gaining height. She's at 14 inches today. (not droopy, but the healthier one)
I would trim if you are making her a mother. If you feel that she will not dry out quick you may want to wait a couple days to go into a 12/12. Once she drys on the bottom a bit she will perk up. If you put a electric blanket under her on a low setting it will help perk her up to. I got mine at walmart for 10 bucks. O and the lower branches usually just produce small nugs, which is why I transfer all the energy into a single cola plant. Depends on what stlye you want to grow with. Hows the bottom soil doing?
One love

I have another plant that's currently still a little seedling that I'd like to use as a mother when the time comes. :D
This one will be purely for yield.
I'm glad you told me the sites towards the bottom don't produce that much. All I'm worried about now is getting as much yield as possible out of this lady.
The soil is feeling a lot better and she's looking really happy.
Still a few days to go until water, but the soil at the bottom of the pot feels damp and oxygenated rather than soaked :thumbsup: I'd say the soil is dry about a quarter of the way down but I'll give it another day and spray the top. I'm gonna wait on the watering until I know the roots get some oxygen for sure.
So anyway,
-How can I transfer all of the energy towards the main cola?
-I'm thinking 14 inches should be sufficient enough to flower, if not at least sex.
If you want the most bud then let her grow and dont trim at all. She will be large when she finishes but that is the way to get the most bud out of one plant. With unlimited clones in regards to a specific area thats a different story.
One love

Thanks bro.
I'll start her flowering at 2 feet.
Cool, do you have a limit regarding ceiling height for how high she can grow?
One love

Hey Grim are u ready man, Im going to go ahead and put them into flower... What do u think??? in about 4 hours or so...???
Sorry about the short notice, something came up...
Stay UP :rasta:
!AC420
Acoustic! - <3 Definitely. How tall are they?
Karm - I have about 5-6 feet of actual plant space (that's including pots and lighting)
I'm gonna put one of them into flower with acoustic ( I dunno which one yet, probably droopy, the other one is still skyrocketing and I think it wants to veg) but the other one I might even let get to 3 feet before flowering :D It just sort of depends on if I feel it's going to need to be transplanted into a 5 gallon pot (using 3.5 right now) or not.
Im lookin @ 14", 11", and 8"... a bit on the smaller side, but i must because of my space arrangements also i ran into a bit of a problem and wasnt able to transplant... no worries the plants are fine, but the money to afford everything for the transplant i would like to do fell short, so my decision is to flower a little early... So lets do it man... Starting at 12:00am EST. Im REALLY curious as to how this is going to turn out...
U READY GRIM???
WE'RE FLOWERING MAN... BUD BUD BUD :D :D :D :D
Stay UP my friend :dance: :dance:
!AC420
Hell yes I'm ready!
In fact, it's two hours away but I'm going to go ahead and put mine in the dark now since I'm leaving in about 30 min.
This'll be interesting.. let's do it!
Smokin a Blunt and a Zong right now for us, cant wait...
:pimp:
Honestly, i have put more into growing and learning ect, than i ever thought that i would when i started this project... Its CRAZY, man our first grows are going to be crucial... Here we go... Lights off...
Stay UP :rasta:
!AC420
If you are going to flower in and all you got is six feet for your pot light and plant you may need to tie her down. Figure a foot for the pot, a foot for the light, and a foot of space inbetween the light and the plant. That only leaves three feet for the plant to finish flowering in. Some plants if let grow naturally get 2.5 times the hieght once put into flowering. You may want to sex the other one thats growing. A three foot mother will have up to 30 plus clones a month.
One love

Karm - the 5-6 feet was plant and plant alone, the pot was already figured into it as well as the light. I think I'll go ahead and put the other one in the "flowering room" when this one goes back into the light, that way I can have them rotating and keep one in the most light possible. Suggestions? :D
I can def. tell you there's 4+ feet of unused space in there not being used by plants or materials.
The other plant as a mother would work really well.. though I don't have a cloner or anything. What all do I need to clone them?
Thanks again Karm <3 :D
Acoustic - I feel the same way man. I never thought I'd know this much. I still have a TON and by ton I mean wealths and wealths of knowledge to learn but at the same time, when I first started reading I didn't have a clue as to what an MJ plant even looked like.
Hats off to both of you :D
Karm - is a quarter ounce a plant too much to hope for?
o I misunderstood my bad. sounds good.
Clonex gel
Olivias cloning medium
Cloning trays. Get the rectangular tops 7 inches high. they have become hard to come by but i get mine from this dude gorillagrow on ebay who has a store in canada.
If you dont got ebay and cant find them dont worry I stocked up. Ill send ya a freebie if you need be
One love
c
They look like this.
Its the truth man, i still have countless amounts of info to learn, but i am also interested in what i need for the cloning process as well as the procedures... **--KARM--** if you could hook that info that would be crucial, and i would greatly appreciate it. :)
I was considering topping my plants in hopes to create a larger yield, but i feel that it being my first grow i want to have a strong finish with how i am doing right now... :) So i definately will attempt that next time. Have you thought of doing that yourself?
Anyway this has turned out to be quite an exciting experment for me and i cant wait to see how we reap the benefits!!! :D :pimp:
Stay UP :rasta:

Damn, that looks like a beautiful setup. What would shipping on something like that cost you? I'd be more than willing to pay you for your services in sending one down to a little place called Arizona. ;)
From what I've heard, you dip roots A into gel B and then place the entire thing in the cloner with the proper amount of solution. Seems pretty forward, I'll have to check up on it. :D
Element2004 is my aim.. look me up thanks have a few ?'s right now actually
It is best to take three to four inch cuttings. you do not need to but it is best to cut under a node as that is where the most growth cells are. dip them in clonex and put in a plastic dixie cup. I like the small bathroom ones so I can get like 25 under a tray. You should mix olivia cloning solution at the recommend dose and a drop of thrive alive per gallon with the soil prior in a mixing bowl and then fill the cups with it packing gently. Get it very damp but not wet. If you can sqeeze more then a few drops out of a hand full ad soil. Mist them with water. Mist the top of the tray with water as well and put under a full spectrum or cool white flouro. Everyday mist the lid on the inside to maintain proper humidity. To much humidity will cause dampening off and death. It will also cause mold to grow on the stems which can be killed with a q-tip and rubbing alcohol. When the roots start coming out the bottom transplant. (For production with unlimited clones it is best to veg two weeks in a 8 to 12 ounce cup and pack as many as you can under a 400 watt lamp.) For non production transplant into a one gallon.

not sure about shipping I think its only a couple bucks. You dont need to pay me back if you make a mother.
One love

grim i guess we will have to chat later, thanks for showing back up haha just kidding ill just talk to you another time thanks bro.
Karm - <3 LOL, you really want me to mother them. There's one that's still working on it's second set of real leaves.. I got it from some of the best grapefruit looking bud I've tasted. I'm praying to GOD it's going to be female. It's either that or the one growing alongside it.
I promise you, one will be a mother. In fact, I want you to name it.
hey i will be on tonight again grim if your on look me up thanks pal:thumbsup:
How about Ripple, it was a strain I made about 6 years ago. I was the only one to ever grow it and its genetics do not exist any more as far as I know due to circumstances out of my control as of last November. It was my first mother I ever had. It was responsible for years of good times.:)
One love
c
Karm - <3
I'd be more than honored to cultivate a Ripple V.2 to live on the memory of your first mother.
Being my first mother, it's only right. :D
You've had a small experience with PO boxes - how much do they cost to set up?
I'm putting droopy in the dark room for her second night in about 30 min. I'll post some pics when I pull her out!
She gained 2 inches in the dark last night, ha.
Peace my Gorilla friend.
Hell yea Grim, Lets keep it goin... Did u get that light leak situation figured out??? My night start in a couple hours... :thumbsup:
Right on.
Stay UP :rasta:

P.O. Boxs are like 20 bucks for the smaller ones usually. I prefer mailboxs ext. though as you can register a buisness to them which is great to get loans with. Register them for 40 bucks and dont register them for taxs just the name. Hold on to it for two years and you can get loans with a stated income. Its about 1% higher a.p.r. as bank usually go for "I am a grower".

What about something the size of a cloner? ;)
Hey grim just wondering if we could talk again i have some more ?'s and its just easyer for me to learn just back and forth you know, you can answer 2 things right now tho, 1st, can we talk, 2nd, if i was going to go with eather a 400-600W...should i get MH or HPS? i would like to get both but the fixtures that can have both are to much :( thanks !
I use the trays myself as they fit more clones for the space, but ya cloners work great. Neopreme and airstones
One love
c
Karm - sorry I didn't mean cloner, I meant that tray you were talking about. Stupid me :P
Growing - there are a few differences between the two, I'll hit you up on aim def.
Pulling another all nighter for my lady, I'll definitely post a few pics when she gets out and then I'll post some more in a week so it doesn't look like the growth is so minimal.
O it 22inch long and 11 wide.
one love

ok im on aim right now if you have time, ill be on all night
At this time you have 1420 views I am smoking a bowl for you incase you miss it. Is she still wet at the bottom?
One love
c
Droopy, GO!
Karm! - <3
How's it going today, buddy?
She's damp at the bottom, I went ahead and used a spray bottle and misted the top so the roots won't go completely without water. (don't need them "holding their breath" too long as you like to put it :D)
She's been to bed for about an hour, I was worried about light leaks so I made 100% there will be no light touching her surface whastoever. The only problem is there isn't any circulation, but the room is pretty cool so I'm not too worried about it right now.
:thumbsup:
She's still growing like nuts. I hope she doesn't hermie on me. (this is bag seed. seedy bag seed, good bud though.)
Well I am guessing the bottom is still very damp but miraculously you have no yellowing do to low ph from to many ions. NICE

Oh chillin man I had court this morning and got a few hours of sleep in afterwards for the first time in 24 hours. This site is just so much fun. Hows the dessert air treaten ya
One love
c
god I know! so many cool people here and so much knowledge. I've come to the conclusion that the reason for living my life is to absorb as much info as possible about everything and the way it works.
that and to smoke weed. :D
What's court for? Your little "venture" back in Nov-Oct? I have to go soon.. I'll probably end up having to quit for awhile too. (got caught with some on me back in december, less then a few grams, clean pipe) they still took it all away, cuffed me and booked me. bastards.
It was a nice pipe/nug jar too.
Grower wars, some cats are just in it for the money. Basically corruption at its finest. I cant really be specific and I really dont think people would believe me if I told it. Basically I dont like greedy rapest people and some of them happen to have some power in CT and no concern about the people or the wellbeing of this state. We dont see eye to eye and they dont fight fair.
I got to go to court on Friday for when I was raided. I should have the case thrown out then. Here is the latest article from the front page of the local paper. They published it two days after I hung a large cannabis flag in my window which is very visable from the main street in town. You should see my latest additions. I will try to borrow a camera or get one off ebay.

I should have cut the name out but fuck it, its really no secert I grow
They were my mothers, non in flower, must have been hemp seeds.
