Oh man That's been over 25 years ago. I do remember the book was A Childs Garden Of Grass. Now I'm lucky to be able to just roll a straight one. LOL

Hi Gen, I got your email and will try and send it out this week. I have been real busy with new job but it will go out this week. I would like to try some white widow. My brother in law said he was going to South Carolina to get some but I beleave it when I see it. He has been hounding me for some of mine but he doesn't know I grew it. LOL
Good evening, this is the 7 PM marijuana report. Let's see I burnt one. This one was smashed up against the 65w fluoro for a couple of hours. I'm going to have to get stricter. I have been letting them have extra light hours everyday for the past 14 days. You see, I felt sorry for them, having to be alone in the dark all night along. So today, I'm getting tough.
Now, the hydro girls are vegging. Getting bigger everyday. They have a pretty substantial root system going. I wonder if I should start flowering them right now. They're only about 5 inches tall. Would I get small buds? The last picture is the clones. I have taken a total of 6 clones from big bertha. Of all the plants she has the most characteristics of sativa. She has always been a fast grower. I'm keeping them in 4 inch pots, so I have to water them 2 or 3 times a day. I check the plants every hour, during the day. They grow so fast.
That's all folks. Thanks for tuning in, same bat time, same bat channel. Have a great evening.

Hydro looking good Gen!
Everything looking good! :)
Thanks turtle.
Your grow is looking good. great job. Keep it up..
why did you germ all those seeds ? :rasta: :cool:
Thanks crimsondane.
I germinated all 10 seeds expecting several to be duds or male. I'm also running low on stash. Need to build up inventory.
That's the best part of growing... :) as I see it...Quote:

That's all folks, thanks for tuning in. Same bat channel, same bat time. Have a great evening.
Good evening, this is the marijuana farm report. Soil plants are looking good. We are currently 18 days into flower. Very exciting. The hydroplants are growing well. Not alot of height yet. Only 2 days into flower. Remember guys these plants were all started at the same time, within a couple of days.
That's all folks, thank you for tuning in. Same bat time, same bat channel. Have a great evening!
you can tell a plants gender just by germing seeds?
am i missing something?
Looking good... :)
I find it very interesting the size difference between the hydro and the soil plants...
post #118 shows like 50 seeds all germed, still confused ..
your plants look delicious though, keep it up
hey turtle wassaaaap!!!!
Crimsondane ,post #118 is probably a picture of my cilantro sprouts. No you cannot determine sex by sprouting seeds.
Thanks turtle.
Gen, looks like you're getting the hang of things nicely....glad to see it! StayDro! BTW, check out my thread...I found out some interesting things about my system that I didn't know and it even makes things more simple!!
-sD
Thanks Skunky. Tell me is your first grow like , you know, your first love. Are all grows just as satisfying as the first. I can't believe how happy this had made me. Mj has been great for my insomnia and I get twice as many things done. I only wish I hadn't quit 25 years ago.
Good evening this is the 5 PM marijuana report. We have roots, ladies and gentlemen. Big bertha's first clones have rooted. Took 11 days.
Took 6 clones today. I have a total of 14 or so. I lost count. What I'm trying to do is restrict growth to the top bud. Have any of you guys ever grown artichokes? Well, the artichoke in the center is always the first and the largest. So I'm cutting off the side growth to encourage the top bud to be the largest. We'll see if this works.
Hydro plants are 3 days into flower. Soil plants are 19 days into flower.
That's all folks, thank you for tuning in. Same bat channel, same bat time. Have a great and safe evening.
Wuhuuuuu!!! Roots!
I'll have a toke in your name, and in the name of your roots!
WOW!! thats great!!! that should save you 2 weeks of germing are you sure they are female? i cant remember if i read that or not a few pages back.
And i just got a refill of MJ and i am back to normal. my babies are in 5th week of flower and have fuzzy hairs off the bud sites. hope 2 weeks and they will be done.
I have crappy seeds from a bag bud i cared for them hydroponically for a while, we have had some ups and downs, but i hope to get a bunch. they look really happy.. I should start a thread on my next grow. i want to make a cabnit and have a momma , and have a seperate flowering section . Ive been procrastinating gettin gall the goods to do so. I have a real supportive friend who has been enjoying my first gro with me. Im single and these have become a reason to wake up in the morning and rush home from work.
sigh...
I got a question...
After your plants are in the dark after 12 hours of light.. does it screw things up if you turn the light on for a few minutes before i go to bed and interupt there dark cycle/?.. I cant help but look at them before i go to bed, but i dont wanna keep doing it, if it, wakes them up during crucial dark time..
and if the light does hurt, does my room light hurt it seeping through the cracks in the closet doors? very minimal light i would suppose it would be.
Oh yeah, and i second your toke in the name of your and your roots name.
Amen
SWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSHHHSS nnngt nnnngt.........coooooooooooooooooooouuuuuggggggg
cough cough
Hi Gen, I'm tired as hell. Put in alot of travel time this week. Let me know what you think of it, it's going reg mail but it's on the way. Happy trails to you. LOL
Hell yeah dude!Quote:

You can use a green light to work with plants during the dark cycles... green light doesn't disturb their beauty sleep.
..... Now, back to our hit in the name of the roots....
[bong].... brbrbbbbrrrrrrrrrrrrrrRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRrbbbrbrbbbb brrrr
:smokin:
Thanks turtle and crimsondane. I am jazzed. I'll toke to that!
Loc thanks alot. With anticipation.....
It takes one lightleak, 1 night to cause an unbelievable plant to hermi into and pile of worthless, i'm about to make a bunch of hash and it sucks to be me, waste of time...You can't even use the seeds...so, to answer your question, like turtle said, yes, it is VERY important...Quote:

Yes, crim they are clones taken from a female. Crappy bag seeds can turn out good. So don't despair, you might get some great weed.
Good evening this is the 7:30 PM marijuana report. I decided to make a drip system to see what the fuss is all about. So here are pictures of the setup I did. The black tubing is 1/8 inch and the drill bit I used is 1/4 inch. To make perfect round holes, which fit the hole precisely. The tubing I used is 1/2 inch to connect to the 130 gph submersible pond pump. If you're going to use misters I suggest you go with 1 inch tubing instead of 1/2 inch. You will have less problems with clogging.
Big bertha is living up to her name. She's still the largest of plants.
That's all folks, thanks for tuning in. Same bat time, same bat channel. Have a great weekend.
Here are the pictures.
Wow! Talk about a motivated grower...Quote:

-turtle420 :cool:
.
Thanks for stopping by turtle. Yes, big bertha is soil and I'm flowering. The reason I'm working like a madman is because I have a ton of clones! Feast or famine around here.
Good evening this is the 10 PM marijuana farm report The soil grows are doing great. Hydro is still going, I'm trying to determine sex. This picture is a group shot of clones. For the hydro plants I started to get clogged pumps. The fragile roots of the plants were breaking off and plugging up the pumps. So I had to put a stocking on each pot to protect the roots and keep the pump clear.
Next is my mother section and last is the grow section with mother's on top and grow underneath. It has taken along time to get this far. Too long, about 2 months. But it's all done. I have had all the electrical professionally wired (no fires), and have a large electric fan vent in the roof of the garage. It's cool.
Thanks for tuning in folks, same bat time, same bat channel.
Hi Gen, looking good. I like your drip system. You should get something this week (slow mail). I think you will like the stealth. Keep up the good work and I will get some pic's today to show later. I got 5 new ones and the papaya will sweet skunk you out of the room. Wish my whole house smelled like that. LOL. Wait till you see the crystal trichomes on them. Later. If a man is not as good as his word, he is no man.
Thanks loc. I've been down to the po box and nothing so far. I'll let you know as soon as it comes in. Thanks a bunch.
Good evening. Ladies and gentlemen I have some bad news. Balls have been found on mini and bent. Mini has been feed to the chickens. Bent will be sent to the bad room. He's been a naughty boy. His fate will be decided later. Probably, torture.
Big bertha and all the plants at the marijuana farm want to say hello. Hydro plants are miniature. They're bonzai. I think I stunted their growth and even though they get full sun everyday, they're growing like snails. I'm getting some yellowing at the bottom leaves, so I'm upping the nitrogen. Should see better results in a few days.
Here is another shot of the roots. Thanks for tuning in, same bat time, same bat channel. Have a great evening!
[b] Don't want to sound stupid but that's like a Soil/Hydro mixed growing. Awesome., a lil roots in soil and water. gaining nutes from both :) best of bost worls.
Thank you smurf.
Good evening this is the 4 PM marijuana farm report. First picture. This is what the chickens did to mini yesterday. I'm going to give mini aspirin to see if I can get HIM to change sex. The two males have been quarantened and will spend the nights outside. Next picture hydro plants, too soon to sex. Next, I set up the drip system to handle clones. This is a photo of big bertha's first two clones.
Thanks for tuning in. Same bat time, same bat channel. Have a great evening.
Here are the photos.
Sorry about mini and bent. Your chickens are almost as bad as my dear. If I put one outside they use the stalk for a touth pic and keep looking in the window like thier paranoid. You should see something by friday to make you feel better. I think you will like the drip, they will take off fast. Here's the lucas formula working on my papaya, with a few small northern lights mixed in. And the young ones that have been in for 10 days. Hard to take pic's with the 1000 on.
Big grin loc, you will be feeling better by Friday.....
Good evening this is the late 11 PM marijuana report. This is day 24 of flower for the soil plants. Meanwhile, the first picture depicts the first two clones of big bertha. These two are the ones with roots. Well, they don't look to good. I had them in drip and could only get a stream of water, so I thought they are drowning. Me and my overactive imagination. I planted them in hydroton and stuck them in a bubbler. These are the ones I gave too much love and left them under bright lights for 3 days. They curled. Anyway, the next picture is roots in action. I have made bumper boats a new ride for clones. It's like that ride at Disneyland, the motor boat ride. Where you're on a track, but you got a steering wheel and so you drive, like you're REALLY in control. The ride consists of a bucket of nutrients, a submersible pump and bumper boats.
Now for a commercial break. The last picture is a root bra. Tired of messy, tangled and unsightly roots? Well, we have the answer at marijuana laboratories. Yes, ladies and gentlemen we have invented a new device called the root bra. No more looking at boring roots, now you're got the root bra. Get your's today.
Thank you for tuning in, same bat time, same bat channel.
Good evening this the marijuana farm and bud report. Loc the wonder drug came. This is the best New Year's and Chrismas present I have ever received. You are a gentleman and a scholar, true to your word. I smoked it and loved the weed you call monster bitch. The resins taste sweet and are sticky. We digress.
The first picture is chopping the roots off big bertha and unknown, both females. They were rootbound and growing slowly. The next picture is the two soil plants back under lights. Next is the plant I call runt. Runt was a tiny hydro plant, that wasn't doing to well. So I planted it in soil. Well, as you can see runt is still runty, but the leaves are getting large, like my other soil grows. Which brings me to the next picture, the hydro plants. Even with two weeks of full sun, they are still miniatures. What's going on? I'm getting an A in soil and a F in hydro. The leaves on the bottom have been turning yellow, so I upped the nitrogen today. We'll see if that is enough.
Thank you for tuning in folks, same bat channel, same bat time. Have a great evening.
