Gen! Looks good! Really! I see that the hydro girls are slower, but please don't say you have an F in hydro.... if you have an F, I wonder where I'm standing?
****puuufff! Kicked out of hydro-college****
lol :) Just kiddin'
Your girls look great ;)
Good evening ladies and gentlemen, this is the 5 PM marijuana farm report. First picture is of Big Bertha with her row cover on. For anyone doing a small grow and need to control odor, I think I've found something that will work. I took row cover and sewed a tube. Only the side is sewn. This way I have access to the bottom of the plant and the top. I've seen these bags selling at Home Depot in the garden section. They prevent cross pollination. They also are great for controlling odor. I can practically put my nose up to the bag and sniff. Very slight odor. When I open the bag, I get a huge whiff of skunk.
Next picture is the clones. Last picture is of runt. Runty is only 9 inches tall after one week of flower.
Thanks for tuning in folks, same bat time, same bat channel. Have a great evening.
Hi Gen, Looking good. I hope I didn't couch lock you too much. Your post was going down the page, needed a bump. My papaya is getting close. It looks like they are dipped into crystals sugar and smells so sweet with a touch of skunk. I had a minute to take a few, what do you think ? Looks like candy land and they are starting to fatten up.
Okay, you win, you've got the best pictures this side of the west coast, loc. Yeah, I've been smoking monster bitch and loving it. She is really fine.
Good evening this is the 8:30 PM marijuana report. High everyone. The first picture is of the soil grow. Next is the clones and last is hydro. I just got a couple of 20X40 inch germination mats. They are great for cold weather. Seeds just pop out because they think it's summer. Looking for things to be speeding up around here. If I can put a grow mat under the marijuana plants and give them light, they might even grow faster. Interesting.
Thanks for tuning in folks, same bat channel, same bat time. Have a great evening!
Silly, me. All right loc it's all your fault I'm really spacing out now. Here are the pictures.
Looking good Gen. Not trying to show anyone up, just a good camera. Maybe you can get a taste of the papaya when it's ready!! Only a week or two and a week to dry. Keep up the good work and thanks for the compliment. Some times you it's hard to tell if it's me or if it's really good. Thanks
Loc, my girlfriend tried monster bitch and she loved it. She wants to call it Lucy, because of the red hairs. She said the high lasted a really long time and felt high after 3 or 4 hours. It's amazing! I would love to try papaya. After white widow, I'm planting afghani. I can send some your way. I'm looking to havest white widow the middle of March. This is fun.
Good evening, this is the 10 PM marijuana report. Hope everyone is having a great evening. The first picture, I have finally made a bubbler swc. These are the first two clones of big bertha. Tortured, by too much light in the beginning. There are strange brown spots on the older leaves. I think these are burn marks from the fluoros. The new growth is nice and green. The second picture is of the clones. Still no roots with 24/7 lights. I'm looking forward to some explosive growth with the hydro plants. I was not paying enough attention to ph and let the numbers get ridiculously high into the 8 range. I am now monitoring ph and hope will have better luck in the future. I suspect at least two males in the hydro plants.
That's all folks, thanks for tuning in, same bat time, same bat channel. Have a wonderful tomorrow.
They look good G! ;)
Wow! pH of 8? Wow!
I'll be doing a simple bubble cloner soon. :)
Take lots of care,

Hell Yeah, Bad Ass Gro, Bro...Gen, You and LocNar...Man, I wish I had more time to hang out and read all this. I just went through the last couple of pages, and Cool Stuff...
Locnar; are you dripping thru top tub and pumping from bottom tub? or what?
Gen, Your Freakin' NutZZ like me, Shit growing all over the place...Soil/Hydro...
I love 'It'!...well, work to do, later.lw
Oh, If I may; I leave you with these thoughts (a pictorial essay)2pix
Carolina Sky/re-veg harvest, SexyOrangeSkunk, (Yummy, On the right).
Mickey likes it!!!
Keep the PH good and it will take off Gen. latewood. That's right. They are small 10 gallon tubs with a pump at the bottom of one end. Comes up through the lid and down the center with six feed lines. Holds 5 to 8 gallons for res. It has 3 inch net pots and I would like to make them about 5 inches. Works real good. I think I like what Mickey likes. LOL
Hey turtle, thanks for stopping by.
Thanks latewood, you are one of my heros. I am drooling.
Thanks for the encouragement loc. I hope my stuff will be half as good as yours. I laughed when I got turbo tax 2003. I used to use that program, now I'm using tax cut. The ph of my water is very high 8.1 I have to add alot of apple cider vinegar to bring it down. When I get to 6.1 or so I stop. I'm afraid of putting too much vinegar in.
Good evening this is the 6:30 marijuana report. First picture is the hydro males I found. Say bye, they are going to be chopped up and stuffed into a jar with rubbing alcohol. Next pic are the hydro plants. The smallest ones are big bertha's first two clones. Wish them luck. Life is full of perils. Then big bertha, who is a whooping 22 inches tall. And last, but not least soil.
Thank you for tuning in folks, same bat time, same bat channel. Have a great evening.
Hi, Gen. That's one way DR chonic sends seeds stealth. I thought it was a good way. I should of put the Unledded dvd in it but forgot. Maybe next time.
Loc, can I get a prescription for monster bitch? Since I've been smoking her I have cleaned my entire house and backyard. Unbelieveable energy and focus. I hope to smoke many more like her. I toke to you, my friend.
Good evening, this is the late, late report. I moved all clones outside with protection. Giving clones 24 hours of light is bad. Really bad. I've gotten my ph down to 6 and the plants seem to be making a comeback. How often are you supposed to recalibrate a ph meter?
Thanks for tuning in folks, same bat time, same bat channel. Have a great day!
Thanks Gen, I wish I had one too, She is running low as I have helped a cancer pateint. Monster is about the only thing that makes him feel a little better. Kind of paying it forward. I lost my best friend last year to cancer ,I wish I had some for him. Everyone I light up is in his name. The papaya is almost ready. It doesn't look like a big crop but they were put in real small, brother problems. 4 more papaya about 20 days into 12/12 showing sex good and 3 or 4 more to take the place of the ones about to harvest. I was trying to split the grows between papaya and northern light, I won't do that again. My NL's just didn't take to good. Should stick to one kind at a time. I think I can get one more set of clones from the papaya mother. Then it's going to be blue mistiq, Nirvana's blueberry. I am glad you enjoyed it, kind of like xmas. Most of the fun is in giving. The next ones for you my friend. Keep the bat reports coming.
Thank you loc. My heart is with you. Thank you for helping that cancer patient. I hope I can help someone out like that someday. When should I start the next round of seeds? I've got 10 afghani from weedfarmer or 5 smoke colas and 5 chronic X ak47. I'm 33 days into flowering. I'll listen to you and stick to growing only one variety at a time.
Good evening this is the late report. The hydro plants have recovered and have stopped yellowing. I did get some burning of the tips, but that seems to have stopped. I think I have one male hydro plant and another male soil. That would give me a ratio of 4/6 four females to 6 males.
Should I keep a white widow mother? From seedling or from clone? I guess I just figured out my own answer. The fluoros are empty right now. I could start seeds and put them into veg.
I got home too late to take any pictures. Tomorrow I promise.
Thanks for tuning in folks, same bat time, same bat channel.
Good morning, this is the early report. First picture is the bend I put in my plants. Next is a bend I did last night, around 6 PM. Last is big bertha's clones with roots. The roots prefer being outside the root bra. So as a service reminder, do not waste your money on root bras. The reason I used a root bra is to protect the roots from the turbulence of the pump. Now I place the pump with the water spraying up, so the roots don't get injured. Looks like another male in hydro. The means I have 3 females to 7 males. What do you think about bending the plants? It's called LST. I like it alot. The plant gets mad and starts making the whole plant grow. Especially the side shoots.
Thanks for tuning in folks, stay tuned same bat channel, same bat time.

Hey G! :)
Nice looking plants...
I was going to point out a small thing...
The bending/training you just showed in your pictures, it isn't LST. LST (Low Stress Training) is when you bend them without having the stems "kink" like in your pictures.
The training you did, has a name... and it's commonly done... I don't know the name... maybe it's High Stress Training?
In any event, nothing harmed... just mis-placed naming.
BTW: Gen, can you check my thread? I've got a clone bubbler idea... ;)
Best G,

Thanks for stopping by turtle, I miss your posts. I thought you were supposed to bend the stem like that. My bad. I'll check out your thread.

As to the plants... again, you should not get stressed... I know this is an actuall technique that's used for plants... you "kink" it, and it'll grow a bulge there...
No harm done!!!
They still look lovely! I'd love to see how that HST turns out! :)
Best Gen!,

Good evening, this is the 11 PM late report. First picture is hydro. The smaller plants are clones. Next picture is bent named unknown. Last picture is the top of big bertha. She is mighty.
That's all folks, thanks for tuning in , same bat time, same bat channel.
Yes she is mighty, great job
Thanks for stopping by white snoop.
Good evening this is the 8 PM evening marijuana report. First picture are the clones. I took 6 clones from the hydro female plant. They are small, 1 1/2 inches. I'm going to plant them in dirt once they've rooted and see if I can get them to grow big. The next picture is the big bertha clones. Unknown is bent over and I rather like her spray of foliage. Last picture is the top of big bertha. That's all for the evening report, have a great evening.
Stay tuned, same bat channel, same bat time.
Good evening this is the 9:30 PM report. The ladies have all retired for the night. So I don't have any pictures today. Big bertha's top is getting really long and hairy. It's probably about 5 inches long. I planted some afghani seeds. I'm doing 4 in soil. And 7 in hydro. The four seeds in soil have been planted with fresh chicken manure (produced right here at the marijuana farm).The soil will be watered only with plain water.
That's all folks, thanks for tuning in, same bat time, same bat channel. Have a wonderful evening.
Hi, Gen.
I been putting in some long hours and not much time. I just stop by my cancer dudes house and burned the last of MB ( Lucy) with him. I left him in no pain. Your stuff is looking good and planting more, man if I had the time. My papaya was done, not a big producer but these were put in very early and were not expected to do much. 3 northern lights may be a half OZ they were tiny when they went in. Waiting for them all to dry. I got 3 more of each NL's are small and another monster bitch papaya. Should bring in much more with 6 papaya cloning now to go behind them. I might keep a NL for a mother or go with blue mistiq (blueberry) next I can't decide. What would you like to taste next ?
Loc, you just asked me the million dollar question..... What do I want to taste? All of them. I'm starting a list. My goal in life is to smoke every single variety of mj and hash available. Hmmm. I just might make it with a little help from my friends.
So on my wish list is Kush, Haze, white russian and aka one hitter.
I've got afghani started. Then I have smoke cola and AK47 X chronic next. 4 of the afghani are growing in chicken shit. That's going to taste great. I can hardly wait.
And my list goes on, misty, blueberry..... Whatever you want to grow, I'm willing to sample. And the same goes with my stuff. Loc thank you for spending sometime with a stranger/human being/friend. I'm still toking on monster bitch and everytime I light up I think of you.
Good evening ladies and gentlemen, this is the 8 PM marijuana report. The first picture is of the seed boat. You've all heard of the love boat. Next is roots on clones, followed by big bertha's top, then unknown's top, that got a big karate chop and is now more beautiful than ever. And last but not least is hydro as in one. I have one plant left in hydro, that I had started from seed. All the others got axed by being male. I've decided to veg these clones longer, since they're so small.
And that's all for the marijuana report, thanks for tuning in, same bat channel, same bat time. Have a great evening.
Good evening, this is the marijuana report. First picture is 4 afghani seeds, next big bertha top, unknown with bent stem. I love the spray look of buds. And last but not least hydro plant.
Thanks for tuning in folks. Stay tuned, same bat channel, same bat time.
Liking it ! :)
Its great too start to see all that hard work pay off! Im w/ turtle
Thanks guys. I am busy with the plants and and lovin it.
I don't know about you, but mj is speed to me. Since I've been smoking, (thanks loc) I have tremendous amounts of energy. I run.
I was talking to the new seedling plants today. I put a tray in the sun and came back four hours later. I thought I had burnt them. Well, they were loving the heat from the sun. What wonderous little things.
No prob's Gen. I am glad it last you awhile. I can get alittle like CHONG some times. LOL. I got the day off kind of, Got to go to the hospital and see if my partner (older brother) is OK. He has had the flu or something the past few days and woried about not being there for me. HA. If you don't have your health you don't have anything. I'm glad you run and keep in shape, I got to get back to my weight lifting soon and drop a few pounds. Your plants are doing very well. I will get some pic's of the new girls (papaya). These had the veg time so they look like good producers. Not much on the last harvest but they went in too soon. I thought Lucy was bad to the bone, the papaya is just sugar dusted with crystal trichomes and it's baaaaaaad to the bone even though I think I picked it just a wee bit too soon. New batch will be ready about the middle of next month and one behind it in a month and still another papaya behind it in a month. Then I will change. Expect something middle of next month my friend. Keep on doing what your doing, looks great, later.
Thanks loc. How do you dry your stuff? I don't have one of those vacuum sealer things. I was thinking of trying plastic wrap and aluminum foil to seal off any smells for shipping. What do you think? Do I need to dry it before shipping?
Good afternoon this is the 3 PM marijuana report. Well, this is a big set back here at the mj farm. I sprayed the clones without roots with soap and water. Bad. They're dying off. I had to take a few more clones from big bertha since the other ones are going. I saved the buds to see how they smoke. I know it's not a good idea to take ones so late, but what am I going to do?
The first picture is afghan seedlins in soil and next in perlite. Then Big bertha and unknown. Last but not least hydro plants. Still creeping along. I am changing nutes everyweek and checking ph and ppm. I'm still trying to get the hang of this hydro stuff. You guys make it look so easy.
Thanks for tuning in, same bat time, same bat channel.
Have a great day folks!
Gen can I ask how the nylon works out, seems like it would be great for keeping in coco fiber. Any root problem or humidity problems on the inside?
One love

Hi Gen, I dry them by hanging in a vented dark closet or in a brown bag loosely for 4 to 6 days. they will be kind of burnable by then but I put them in gallon or quart mason jars and put the lid on and lay down side ways . Don't pack them too tight. If you see moistier in the jar take the lid off for a half day or day. Do this untill you see no more moistier. The ones you had were about a six weeks or so cure. They get mellow with age but good. I would dry before shipping so it doesn't mould and yea tin foil, plastic rap and a little perfume if you like. Kind of through them off. LOL. well a couple of pic's about 5 weeks and I think this papaya likes about 10 weeks. I looked a couple days ago and all smooth. Today trichomes all over, man. Sorry about the clones but BB looks like she could give up a few more. Later man.
Outstanding pictures loc. I'm going to try smoking the buds off the clones I took today. The stems were kind of woody. Might not take. Let you know how it smokes.
Karmaxul, the roots grew out of the nylon. I took them off. I had a mess going with hydro. My poor plants lost their roots a couple of times. It was me. But yes, the roots will grow right out of it. It would work for coco. I didn't have any humidity problems. I'm not sure about that question.
Thanks that is exacly what I was wondering. Great idea.
One love

Thanks. How are you growing in coco? I tried to use it instead of soil. 50/50 perlite/coco. The poor plant didn't dry out for 3 days. I repotted it. Coco holds too much water. I'd like to find a way to use it, environmentaly friendly.
I just use a bit say 10%. With grow rocks in hydro that should be all you need to support micro organic lifearound the roots for organic nutes. It has calcium naturally so that keeps the ph up. They should make coco rocks. Or at least mix it in with the clay with just enough clay to make it stick.
One love
