Hardonna update...

Trust me....46 days or 21 days....matters not.

They will triple in height during flower.

They will continue to grow at about 1/4" a day now til the end....thats if you have any MH present.

If not, look for 1/8 - 1/4 inch daily from here out. DO the math and see what you have. Dont get caught by surprise.

You have at least another 4 weeks????? of flowering? thats another 28 - 30 days...

at .25 inches a day....thats another 7" :D

They arent so easy to bend once they have those thick stalks. Some wont allow it...so, just be prepped and ready at the helm.

Cool, thanks, HD. Much like the girls I've met, I can handle 7 or 8"...

Just a quick Flower Day 32 update...

Jeez, this morning I woke up to a half-dead, droopy looking mess. Unlike HD, I did not pause to take an informative photo (I wish I had), but rushed to the water jugs. My first near-miss fuck-up. But 10 minutes later and they were fine.

Cant tell from the pic...how is the trich production coming along>

They should be starting to emerge about right now.....do you have an MH bulb to support them with some UV-B rays? That will help them...

Also are these sativa dominant plants or Indica?

Looks like it could be a 10 - 12 week flower process :)

sick man they sum healthy lookin greens u got, keep us posted

Looking more beautiful every day skiâ?¦.. ;)

Hi, Clever!

They are mostly indica...I had two mostly-sativa plants: one male and one hermie; both now long dead. Trichs are all over the buds and those upper leaves; they are perfectly clear right now.

No MH right now, HD. If I knew then what I know now, I suppose I'd have gone with a 400w switchable ballast. Instead, I suppose I should pick up a 250w MH and stick it in my grow room along with the 400w HPS.

I can grab a 250w MH system right now for $147.50 (includes shipping). If you were in my position, would you do it, HD?

ABSOLUTELY.

You still have about 4 weeks so you can kick them into high gear still :)

You have the perfect ratio to achieve as well.

Okay, thanks, HD...I just bought one...it'll arrive Wednesday at the latest.

Just a quick Flower Day 36 update...

One more quick shot of 1-7-6 Catcus Juice today. I expect the 250w MH to arrive tomorrow to add to the current 400w HPS and six CFL's.

This sucks without HD around.

I know there are plenty of genius growers and great people...but HD is HD. Not having the resident sometimes-borderline-psychotic-mad scientist-pervert here leaves a huge empty space.

How the fuck did that guy learn so much about growing in a couple of months? Look at his old posts and he was asking about basic lighting...a month later and he's preaching bending. By the end of the grow, he's cooking hash oil to perfection.

I admit I'm curious as to what Mrs. HD is like. What person could possibly live with HD?

I know things happen on message boards that are mostly unkown and can feel pretty catastrophic to those involved. I'm on another MB having to do with my sport and had to take a month off when some of my best friends didn't back me up during a flame war. I needed a month away to chill and even deleted the bookmark.

So maybe that's it. His leaving came shortly after his signature changed to the disclaimer. Maybe the fun was chased away with real fears and concerns.

I sure hope he pops back up in a day or a month.

It's just not as good.

And it sucks without HD around.
