TEST LAUNCH-Operation Redwood Tree

Ak 47....

The one is soil is doing great but the other three got too cold one night during a bit of a surprise rain and we didn't have the central heat on so two croaked and we've put the last one in hydro and will see how she does.

The soil one is really doing beautifully and will end up being our clone mom. :)

Related note: check out the cool new fluro set up we bought. :thumbsup: The power plant clones also got too cold so we went ahead and planted them in soil and they are on suicide watch as well. :wtf:

Btw.....those two little munchkins germinating in front are another Fang (Brainstorm) and an MK. We will be turning the Arjans Strawberrry Haze and SNL x NH shortly and just topped them yesterday in anticipation. :D

Edit: Shov my understanding of hempys is using perlite and/or vermeculite to grow your plant in instead of soil. ;)

Hempy is a soil-less medium with 3 parts perlite to 1 part vermiculite. Standard practice is using a 2-gallon bucket with a drain hole 2 inches above the bottom of the planter so it simulates a water table or reservoir.

Watering every other day is necessary, perhaps daily if less than a 1-gallon container is used... hope that helps :D

Fang is a super-size, WOW.

WH, I had a surprise kill in the garden Tues night. Lost a lot of plants, others are damaged. Must have been frost, but I never saw it and the forecast didn't show frost warning in our area (just upland a few miles though). Sucks. Have to replant lots of stuff today.
I'll check out that new lighting too. I hope weather warms up soon for you.

Frost?? That sucks....We had yesterday 95...it's already so warm, it will be fun to water the plants whole summer...

Wh....the plants look awesome...and Fang, she's gonna have some huge buds for sure...

I have been lurking in your thread for awhile, and thought I would at least provide you some applause. Fang is absolutely amazing! I cannot wait to see her end result, and am rooting for her to be the pounder plus for which you are shooting.

Good luck in your continuing grows, and I look forward to leeching as much information from your thread as I can in hopes I will retain it for my future use.

Take good care out there! And, thanks again for all of the gorgeous eye candy!

Hey Wh......whats up?? How is Fang doing?? Some update & pix would be nice...:thumbsup:
Yesterday I received a one day old DP's Power Plant from a friend, I'm so happy.....gonna grow it outdoors....
(Those dogs in your new Av are absolutely adorable...:D)

She's getting pretty darn big and got a very nice frost developing so far but looking up close you can see she has a ways to go. I'm guessing 10 weeks altogether but wouldn't be surprised if she took a bit longer either.



Btw....Fang is a Brainstorm (Northern Lights #5 x Haze) just to refresh everyone's memory. ;)

The one in soil is going to be our clone mom. I topped her already and she's come back strong. We're going to transplant her into a 3 gal container and then try some clones after she settles in. She's a great, easy grower so far. :thumbsup:

The clone in hydro finally took as well. Funny we kept watching it and saw nothing, nothing, nothing and then all of a sudden Mr Hound pointed out a root coming out the bottom of the net pot. :wtf: From there on out she's bounced back very well and I think will do nicely in hydro (fingers crossed.)

There are actually three clones and they all took well but the third one we burned by getting the big flouros too close and she is recovering from that and is camera shy. The two here are doing really well......the one on the right in the first photo will be our clone mom. Both of these have been topped already and have several layers of nodes even though they look small. I don't remember having my power plants in hydro looking this good EVER. :wtf: :cool:
