Yeah i guess, but just in the past couple weeks while its been raining, the thing looks so much better. And i think your right about the getting used to culling a female, lol.

For me, it's not even worth trying outdoors with the vermin and bugs, and heat, and wind, and no shade, no fences, and...I'm doing fine where I am, lol. Once they carbon tax our electric bill beyond affordability, I'll make some changes and build a greenhouse.

---

Ya know Rusty, after i had said and posted that, i had remembered you live in that really bad heat. Slipped my mind, but im sure you could make it happen:thumbsup:. A greenhouse would be great! I would grow all kinds of things in it and use it for the hobby.

Was just making sure you're still satisfied with the re-veg technique.
Keep up the good work. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

---

Luv the re veg and will always use it. I can never understand why a person wouldnt.

But i have a question Rusty, My NL has a bunch of 3 finger leaves and was told that it would be flowering. He said after budding, leaves grow 2-3 finger leaves, but veg would be 5-7, so if this is true, my plant is trying to flower, or i never got it to the veg stage, but was re vegged over 68 days i believe, give or take a day. Have and idea? Or do you need pic's as the cross has a few also:wtf:guess im worried a bit now till i can clarify this.

Thanks Rusty, great to have you in here:rasta:

Ummm...Perhaps it's me, but could re-phrase the last part? Not sure what you're asking.

''hi LSY,dont know why its true,all i know is this-they start 1leaf then 3-7-9,then when they flower its reversed,your main buds only have 1-3 fingered leaves maybe rusty or headshake know why?''

I was told this and never really saw this or read it and 2 of the re vegged ones have a few 3 fingered leaves. Just curious i guess. I was worried as i thought i had more 3 then 5,7 fingered leaves, but after looking at them today was wrong. But its been raining and they have really grown. I gave ferts yesterday and the plant are really luvin them. But still don't really know the answer as if this is true and could it be an indicator to know when the re vegged plant is out of flower stage and in complete veg mode?

Thanks once more Rusty:rasta:

Ok i went out to see how bad my ladies were pounded by the rain and took the camera with me, just in case,lol. Well the first pic is a ''family'' plant i took a pic of 2 days ago and didn't post her. She had gotten i believe burned by nutes at the bottom, but was looking better. Anyway i fed them all yesterday, cuz when it rains, i believe the ferts get down better into the ground. So, when i went out i knew things would look better, but the second pic shows it as its the same plant, just two days later:jointsmile:


The forth is a plant that would be a part of my attempt to make seeds. With low ryder 2 in her crossed with other good genetics from Holland makes sense to use her:detective1:. She hasn't really taken off like i had thought she would, but its only been there 6 days and was a bit smaller then i like to put them out. But i had to replace that big ass male i:chainsaw:, because its a great hole:rambo:and will use it every year.


The forth pic is the 5gal plant which was leaning over so bad. The rain came down hard for at least a good 20 min. I bent her back a bit, but got no more then in the door and it pouring rain again. But they luv this rain and lightning and getting the ferts out makes it even better:thumbsup:


:rasta:

Had to get the re vegged ones two. They are some sorts of a mystery to me, because i have no idea just how well they will produce for me. Also, the NL is the best meds i think iv had. The cross is great two, but night time only or your locked for the night:stoned:. And the Edna has an up buzz but hits me more like the Skunk x NL sometime. I guess it depends on time of day when i use it. They look much better then in these little pics. I just previewed them and feel like i wasted my time. Maybe if ya blow em up you can see the difference? But, in these, i cant.:wtf:

1. Skunk 1 X NL 5, starting to grow out more, but the storm helped her i think

2. NL 5, i really hope i can clone her, iv never done it before, but reading now

3. Edna, she just keeps getting bigger,



See Ya:rasta:

Frankly, I don't know. I do know that when severely stressed, they'll weird-out with varying numbers of fingers or elongated ones. The symptom fades as they settle-in.

You can tell they are re-vegging when they start new vegetative growth. Likely they'll start pumping-out pistils all over the place since they're technically sexually mature, but shouldn't actually bud till after summer.

Hope this helps. :thumbsup:

Ooh thanks Rusty:thumbsup: My NL is really pumping out the pistils for sure. Iv never seen a plant with so many. I thought it was starting to bud there are that many. And more each day, i sure wish i would had cut her better, but anyway it would have still been a bit tight in the middle.

But next time i germ a seed il be thinking re veg and will lst for branch growth to grow outward.


Thanks man:rasta:

I know your not a low life !, genuinely i do trust you, i think everyone on the site knows your a nice guy ;).

I looked up the import duties and taxes from stuff sent from america. Commercial packages up the value of £18 will not be taxed but over they will. And gifts up to the value of £40 wont be taxed, which is good as the bulbs cos £40.08 :D. So you may have to slip a bday card in the parcel to make it into a gift, with a note like 'your a douche for buying me lightbulbs for my birthday' or something like that....then i rekon we'd get away with it being a gift. :D I found the right bulbs and everything so its just a matter of time till i can get the last bit of money together and ill send you a private message to figure out shipping costs and a lil bit of money on the side for your good doings :thumbsup:

Well im down to 4 plants now it was the smallest out of the bunch damn those rabbits lol. Anyways i really wanna see how your re vegged plant turns out if it turns out good are ya gonna start doing it every year, do re vegged plants produce more yield??? :thumbsup::thumbsup::jointsmile:

I really never thought about any sorta ''duties'' or tax to send something in the damn mail:wtf:. So im glad you know what to do to get it there. Would they actually open the package to see that indeed, its a gift? That seems whack to me, but im no world traveler thats for sure. Never even seen the ocean before, just lake Erie, lol. And by the way man, i don't need anything for picking up a few lights and tossing them in the mail, so don't even think about that.

But id like to stick a couple Edna beans in there, if i can get them in a good place of the packaging of the lights. Its up to you bro, but i think you will like her. Not over powering, but very nice smoke. The thing is getting huge man. We had rain for a week and everything shot up, but the Edna is growing like a ''weed'', lol. My 5 gal plant just about was bent in half so i put a y stick in the bucket to keep her standing, but still is able to move with the wind. Im sure i could tape like 4 beans some place that would look like it was packaged that way. Before anything, id take a pic of where it is and get your ok:hippy:, so whatcha thinking about getting, because sometimes there is deals around town on them. You should shot me an email, so i could give you a list of stores that have good deals. Just an idea, but im at yahoo.com, s/n should be easy to figure out,

Just let me know man an try a send an email so i can give you my info, that way you could search the area for the best deal, i think it would be cheaper then getting them on line, but we can compare. Cuz if ya like something, i could call them and get the run down an all:thumbsup:

Later bro:rasta:

Rusty i got your rep comment. I will take it to email with lsy. Couldnt reply on rep because i 'need to spread some rep' !

Dude post anything you want in here, there is no such thing as hijacking when you post here:thumbsup:

Really,:cool:never worry about that, ever:thumbsup:


:rasta:

evertything looks great man all coming along nice EDNA is still looking amazing if she wasnt on another continent far away i wud come and ravage her with my penis in the night.... no but seriuosly she is BOOMING, will have to talk about that comment u wrote in my rep message ;)can u send private messages on this site... oh yeh cheers for the rep aswell:D:thumbsup::jointsmile:

by the way is edna a standard grow or lst? top? fim? and is she re-veg? clone? seed?
e z :stoned:

LSY, just read through your thread. Lookin' good.

I'm sorta doing a re-veg too, but it was only to sex them and choose a mother. They weren't flowered. They're 3 mos old now and have been back on 18/6 for 3 weeks. I've chosen 2 moms and will put the rest outside. Here's a pic of the mother rejects. You can check my thread too. Search "Hempy Time".

The looked good today as the rain finally stopped and the re vegged plants are getting bigger. The Edna is shooting new branches from every place it seems. I took a couple of it and the NL as id have to say they are in the lead so far. The Skunk x NL is the 3rd pic. I was telling a friend i was a bit disappointed as to their growth. But he reminded me of the fact that June just started:wtf:. Last year my plants were not close to being this big. Even my ''family'' plants are bigger then last year, even though i just about killed them while in the seedling stage. Not enough perlite, but that will never happen again.

I have a few pics after this post that im having issues with. Just waiting for pic's to load:wtf::thumbsup:

:rasta:

The 5gal was so bent over i had to prop it up with a y stick. Im sure it would have been ok, but hated seeing it looking like that. The 2nd pic is doing well. Its one of the ''family'' plants i took a pic of last post showing the fast growth, but its gotten even bigger then before and now would have to say its probably the biggest of the ''family''. The WiTarHar plant which i want to pollinate hasn't really grown that much, some but not like im used to. Im not sure what the issue could be. I could have got it a bit deeper and wish i would have, but it looked ok as i left it, hope thats not the cause. But its rained a bunch for the past few days and the sun really hasn't been out much till today, so im hoping that will boost them up in the next few days:jointsmile:

Ops i guess iv cropped out the y stick:(


See Ya:rasta:

If anyone had wondered how these plants looked like before they were re vegged. In these pic's they have been re potted one time, but roots were trimmed on each side and bottom. Then, they were placed in the same pot and filled in with fresh soil. After they filled the new soil, i re potted into a bigger pot and started acclimating to the outdoors. I put them in the shade to get only 2-3 hours of the sun setting. So, they got light all day, but only what penetrated through the trees and the few direct hours at sun set. I did this for a bit over a week, then put them into the ground.

So, i guess if anyone had questions about how to get a plant to re veg, without leaves on your plant, this is what i did. This would be hard to do inside without trimming correctly. The Edna was trimmed perfect, got lucky. The NL i would have to say was the worst as you see the buds are so close, now the new growth is growing straight up words. Now the Skunk x NL sorta grew like a vine at times. It was sorta strange as it grew out branches, but never really hardened off like a branch. But because of this, i believe its helped me re veg it as it is naturally growing like it did before. The growth is growing out with a lazy sorta attitude as the branches grow out, they seem to fall of to the sides of the plant. This makes it grow like a bush, plus lets light get into the inside growth and helps it veg faster then the NL. The NL is growing very tight without light helping the plant bush out like i want. I will be spreading out the branches of the NL to help the inner part of the plant get better sun light in hopes that it will start to bush out.

Thanks a lot for everyone who has stopped in with a comment or not. It would be difficult to do this without help, questions and just over all discussion:cool:

The order of pic's is Edna, NL, Skunk x NL, ,:D also these were taken 4-19:)


:rasta:

Good day for pics even though they look just about the same as last post. Well maybe a bit better, at least you can see how big the plants are thanks to my cat. She keeps going out and trying to dig up my dog:mad:, but a friend came over a put chicken wire on him with concrete blocks holding it in place. I wasn't sure what was trying to dig em up till i saw her out laying on his grave. That cat luved my dog.

Going to rain again so im pushing ferts hard. When i see some burn il slow it up a bit, but want to build on what dose im giving. Each time i add a bit more and so far iv been good. But the rain continues to keep the ground wet, so i gotta believe that it is weakening the ferts im giving. So i guess il just keep giving them more till the rain slows a bit as i have not gave any plain water in over a week, because of all the rain. Also, the ferts are 15-20-15, just some all purpose stuff i got around the house. I used it last year, but just didn't stop before harvest in time and was left with a very bad tasting harvest. The FF nutes i have will be saved for indoor only as this stuff will get them where i want them. Then il use the goodies that were gifted to build up my buds and have a much better tasting crop that im not giving away this year, lol.

Anyway Edna, Skunk x NL, NL, WiTarHar looking really bad, 5 gal plant much better:hippy:

My cat is about average size just to have an idea and the plant she's by is the NL which is about five times smaller then the Edna and just a bit taller as the cross, but not as bushy:smokin:


:rasta:

Well so iv never had a plant i put into the ground just stop growing before. I saw a damn snail on it and before i could get it, it buried itself in the ground. So its eating the roots or the leaf hoppers are just eating to much which is keeping my plant from getting sun. the PIC IS ABOVE, BUT I ENLARGED IT fuck, im not re typing that. I might try garlic and soap, but if the damn snail is eating my roots then this is no good.shit

Heres the plant, any help would be great, im thinking about moving it, im pissed:rasta:

Are the other plants just handling the bugs better, or are they even under attack?

Well outside there is usually the munch here an there, but if kept in good shape and the bigger they are the less they attract. But this is an all out buffet on this important plant. I have mixed some garlic an water with a bit of soap and now im adding ammonia in it. From my goggle the snails don't like any of these, but most of all the ammonia. Its sunny as hell but i cant do it any other time, so put this crap on or dig it up? Which iv learned not to do this in the sun as it will just burn up the plant. I cant make up my own mind i guess, either isn't a good plan. Id like to just put a shit load of ammonia down around the plant. Copper will work for snails too, but i don't have any?

Not sure what im going to do, but gotta save this one its my last bean of this strain and first really living plant iv had from them, funny thing is their breed for outside.

I read somewhere on here that you could place a cup of beer by them and the snails will get in it and die never tried it out or anything hope you can get rid of the buggers and save ya plant:thumbsup:

...I hear that diatomaceous earth (possibly available at your local gardening superstore) is kinda like them crawling across broken glass, and they just basically die from their wounds. It is safe for the plants, and for you :)

If you do get the diatomaceous earth, make sure it's food grade, not the crap for pools.

Then you can be sure it's safe for everyone:thumbsup:

Diatomaceous Earth As Natural Pest Control:
One of the more popular uses of DE is as a natural form of pest control. Because of the many tiny sharp edges on each specimen of DE, when it comes in contact with insects DE absorbs the waxy coating that covers the insect, causing a laceration of the exposed tissue. This is aggravated by the insects writhing. The insect dies from dehydration, usually within a few hours.

It may help with the lil ones, but I don't think it's gonna stand a chance against Mr. Snail.

looks like one of my plants what can u do....? the joys of growing outside.... but no seriuosly what can ya do i got slug reppellants. i just need to get sum soapy spray...

Diamataious earth rapidly loses effectivness in humid conditions. Since you are still far from flower use the commercial stuff (ie Scotts) from a garden shop. Use a lot of it and destroy every snail within 20 ft of her. Repeat two weeks later. You should only need to do this once. Will not hurt your plants.

She must be tasty...
If she's that important, I'd either use some pesticide for the vicinity. One that's guranteed to work, or take a couple of clones before it's too late, or pop her out and revive her indoors. At the very least, I'd definately quit with the garage remedies and go with what works. Careful with bringing bugs indoors too.

Yes this works, but every rain ya gotta put more in it and iv got leafhopper's bitting the leaves up bad too. Niem oil would be better, if my cash flow was,lol.

Yeah also sand paper will work too. But its under ground i think is where the damn snail is getting the new root growth, only because its not growing as iv seen them grow before. It will be two weeks Sunday and the new growth looks weak. The stem is the only thing that has really grown bigger, so its got to be 2 issues. Snail and leafhopper's i believe. But once the plant gets bad the bugs see it as an easy target and attack it more so. This was according to the goggle info i got, but knew this from growing last year outside, but confirmed my theory:thumbsup:

Thanks man for stopping in:hippy:

Well i put a mix of garlic, soap and a couple caps of ammonia on and around the plant. I about pucked man, the shit smelled so bad i was gagging before i could get out of the area. But if this doesnt help i might look into the DE.

Thanks Irydyum:jointsmile:

Well its something i may look into, because the spot is a good one and don't want to lose this hole. Its that its surrounded by tall grass is the reason. My other spots were cleaned out in April, but needed to put this plant in a place i knew would reap all the sun as possible. The mix i put out was really nasty and the ammonia is something that could get rid of the snail also read it can give N, but that is debatable.

Thanks for the help man:hippy:

Thanks so much for the help guys:thumbsup:great advise from everyone as everything mentioned i had read about, but wasn't sure which to use. But i appreciate all the replies to this issue. Its a really an important plant.

Not sure why this didn't come up on the multi post but yeah anyway, your right she must be taste. My other one that was bad from the leafhopper's pulled out of the funk and has nice new growth. This is way i believe there are two issues. The root ball isn't spreading out as the plant has to much movement at the lower stem. This makes me think the snail that got away from my efforts to kill it, is eating my new root growth. In this pic you can see what a snail did in just a couple days, but i killed that one.

If what i put out last night made the plant look a bit better i might let er be for a couple days, but if i go out here in the next hour or so im going to bring it in. And just might do that anyway to nurse it back to health. Had i not put the plant in the coffee container, that would have been the one in that spot. Oh well, i guess im out to see what happens, but im thinking il take it and bring it in and nurse it back to health. If there was a place to take a clone from i would, but there isn't enough plant there to take a clone, thats why i really didn't want to put it in the ground this early:wtf:, my mistake.

Thanks Rusty, il let everyone see it if i take it:rasta:

Lets see ya,

My revagan amnesia started again with 5 fingers, and has got a lot of leaves, she will grow and shine later on.

Keep you posted.

Blowsterke,
have a nice weekend

Well i dug her up and put er in a pot. Looks better in 3 hours i think. All the crap i put on and around her last night to help with bugs was gone, well at least i couldn't smell it. And that stuff was nasty as hell. Il get a pic of what she looks like when my batteries charge:hippy:

i have to agree with this just from my experience this year as soon as it gets munched a little bitt the bugs go crazy for it, so one of my youngers is set as a decoy as its getting munched more everyday but it is keeping them from

Well according to my goggle, but will put out some sorta message to the other bugs that there is an easy target, but also it said the best thing you can do to prevent them is to keep your plants healthy. Your decoy i would think might attract more bugs then keep them only one the one plant. But i guess if it works, why not.

See Ya:rasta:

Here is a few pics of the damage my plant went through:wtf:. I will get a pic of another plant that was as small as this one, but planted in a different spot. The bugs had really had their way for a bit, but i knew if it got new growth, they would leave it alone, which they did. And also another which was small is thriving now. They just need to be big enough before put out, but these last few were the weakest after my germination method.

But as i want to get seeds from this plant i was too eager to put it into the ground, big mistake. I should have known this would have happen, but ignored it and i guess its my fault. So, i plan to baby it up where its not close to any high grass. Then as she gets healthy, i may put her back where she was, or around the re veg spot as these plants are about 98% untouched from bugs. The Edna was a few bites as well as the NL, but the Skunk x NL is pretty much without a bit on it.

When i went out, it just poured rain, not as i went out but as i got there. When i got back and went in it just stopped, sorta like ''ok hes in now'':wtf:. So as i made a bee line to get things done, i didnt know i had a plant laying on the ground, so i did my best to gather soil around it and did my best to mound it up. I am not able to get down to it, so i use the end of my rigged up weeding stick, which is basiclly a broken knife thats duct taped to a stick. It only goes about 2'' into the ground so i dont need to worry about hitting my plants roots while weeding them. Then it rained again last night which was a good thing, because it gets my ferts i gave down into the soil better and will probobly give more today as its going to rain again.

I was wondering if i could foiler feed the WiTarHar, the plant i just took and potted. Was wondering if the FF Grow Big could be used for this? I never used this techneque before, but thought it might help her get back into shape?

((Nirvana Special x Top44)x WW) x ((Thai Haze x Skunk#1) x Lr2) This was done in Holland.

This is the genetics of the plant i saved, so you can see why i want it in my breeding project. I need to do some reading as to taking pollen, because i believe there are enough flowers to get pollen for my porpose.

Maybe il get a few pics up as everything has grown a lot in the past few days, but will see if the camrea cooperates with me.

Ouch. That's truly scary. I'd have a heart attack if I walked into my grow room and saw that. Could be way worse though. At least you have others to hold ya over. Likely I'd be outside standing guard with a fly swatter and a can of bug spray.

Is this a problem every spring/summer?

If she's giving nanners and the nanners dump viable pollen, the seeds would be female. With the stress she's going through, I wouldn't be surprised. A re-veg comes back nanner-free if genetics were sound to begin with.

lol, Yeah Rusty, so ya know why i was freaked you by it. And with its genetics it makes sense that i use it to breed from. And if this happen in your grow room id think you had a hole in your wall:(

Well outside your going to have some bugs, just like in your veg garden. But if you put them out with more growth on them, its never this bad. One issue iv never had is the damn snails. I pulled off at least 11 off my plants today, and they are worse then the leafhopper's. The plant i had in that same spot didn't have any bites at all on it, but it went male and was bigger and healthy. I have a couple before after pics to post as they get bigger and more healthy, they seem to pull out of the issue with the bugs. But this year its raining about everyday it seems, so i have snails just eating the hell out of them. I never thought a snail could do so much damage in a couple days. They are on my re vegged plants now, so i need to get a chemical to kill them or there will be no plants left:wtf:

Rusty don't say that N word, i posted the genetics and need her and yeah ''her'' as i spotted a pistil. So breeding this plant with the male i have will give better genetics. I really want to stay away from the hermy gene as possible, even tho i believe iv got some in the male. But my buddy has one growing very well now, hes grown 20 years outside. But we differ on many techniques. Like he cuts all leaves off his buds while they grow. I told em that those leaves feed his buds, but he believes that the leaves take from his buds? But what can i say, his shit is great. Iv smoked it, but if he would take my advise, il bet his grow would be better. But he said this was something new, which he believes improves his potency.


Pics now, the 5 gal plant is up to my head now, but ya gotta figure in the bucket:D

LSY, I had a hell of a time with slugs last year myself. They killed all of my seedlings but the larger ones pulled through. I've heard that Diatomaceous Earth is a great deterrent of many bugs, including snails/slugs. It's fully organic OMRI certified so no worry about chemicals. It kills them mechanically, not chemically. Available at some garden centers. I am trying it for the first time this year....$12 4.4lb bag

god damn i hate slugs :mad:
