I'm craving some pictures there stinky. Curious to see how everythings goin
i second the wanting pictures:D
and i am still a little confused by lido.....odd
'kay, I'll charge up the camera and get on it tonight. There should be a couple cool ones... you-all have GOT to see my big box o' males, tee hee!
Naa...I wasn't starting any shit..he wanted a quote, thought it was a good one, ..that aside I have been following your thread , very good. Just reading and learning.You and Justaseed are both from my neck of the woods.So I like to follow both of you .I really don't like to post 'cause I'm a paraniod .
Heya pics as prominsed.
Updates are:
-I'm making headway in my ongoing battle with pests. Aphids and whiteflies and thrips, oh my! But I fogged 2x in the last week with permethrin (synthetic pyrethrin, NO ACTIVATORS!!! The activators are dangerous) from Home Depot... Raid makes a product that just has the perm in it.
-Bear's MTF is breaking dirt as of this morning, and so is Hashberry.
-Just repotted a whole bunch of stuff that showed sex in the last few days, 2 Haze x, 2 Godbud x Dreamweaver, 1 Papaya, um, I think that's it.
Here's pics:
1) Yeag, if your ornery ass is still hanging around here, this one's for you, big guy!!!! It's a healthy Yeag's MTF about 3 weeks old and happy as a clam.
2) Big box o' males. Wow. BAd pic!
3) Bunch of plants getting sexed
4) Bunch of week- and a half-old sprouts just veggin' under tube flouros
5) Bunch of mangled little moms sitting under my MH250 along with a BOG bluemoonrocks in the place of honor!
Anyway the color on those pics is kind of crappy and I noticed makes the plants look kind of sickly, but I swear it's the light!!! :D They are actually in good shape considering the abuse they take.
Here's 2 more pics:
1) A bowl of trim drying out for goo-hash, which I'm going to make this weekend. It's gross stuff really but gets you silly.
2) This mornings harvest sitting decoratively in the kitchen. Smells better than flowers! Actually part of it is missing, which is the buds I pollenated with a BOG unknown. That bit is upside down over a glass jar to catch any precious seeds.. the ones that have fallen so far are ripe but surpisingly petite. Smallest I've ever seen actually.
3) Happy Thanksgiving to all!!! Here's the Tess waiting for someone to drop a bit of turkey. I think she has the munchies.
Anyway I forgot to add that the next batch of seeds I plan to start is going to be Pure Power Plant and White Widow.
Time to get going on the classics, and I've decided to do a run of PPP seeds in time for spring planting. Did you know it's a true-breeding strain? That makes me so happy!
I wish i had the room to set up multiple grows. Your gonna have quite a collection there. Thanks for the pics
Stinky,
your grow is what I really aspire to do, thanks for commenting on my grow but the perpetual harvest set-up you have is really awesome. That goo-hash is going to be amazing and the harvest looks good as usual :thumbsup: :rasta: keep on keepin on!:pimp:
Dan K.
Ewww yuck goo hash only exists to placate my friends when I've nothing else to offer them! It looks nasty, smells funny, and makes me practically hack up a lung... plus I had to go out and scrounge a glass pot just to make it because of the total MESS that cooking it leaves behind. But I appreciate the kind words~ wait til ya see what I'm trying to build next!!!!
not a big fan of the goo hash???:(Quote:

WTF!!!???
The BF and I already insulated our attic windows with that plastic draft-proofing, total pain, and I'm not taking it down!
MEanwhile I've got my grow set up in 'winter style'... no a/c, the 1000HPS is humming away, and there's virtually no way to quickly remove all the heat from the room short of FORCING it DOWN the stairs with like 4 fans!
So needless to say I was a bit peeved this morning when I got up, not rested a bit, and found the temps in the grow at a whopping 97 degrees F. Seriously.
I think this has got to be the first time ever that I WISH it would get below freezing at night, as much as scraping ice off the car chaps my ass.
Well enough bitching. Everyone is growing fine so I guess there's nothing to worry about except for my -shall we say- 'difficult' friend who drank too much ginger brandy last night ( he claims he has the sniffles) and forgot not only where he left his car, but also how to get to his new apartment. Honest, I love the kid, but I'm too old to be dealing with this crap.
This is going to be a LOOOOOONG day.
Damn 97 degrees, i've had trouble regulating temps lately too but not that bad, I'm in the south east and its snapped into the high 70's low 80's since thanksgiving, i thinks its past though, we had some decent storms the past day or so and now this morning i woke to find that chill in the air again.
Good luck cooling down the attic
I'm doing my rain dance...it's supposed to thunder all day but no sign of it yet.
doppler showed it heading northeast
3pm EST... I think it's finally here.
hey miss stinky, did you get my message?
[email protected]
love, kp:p
Hey all.
Log update...
Well, the late thunderstorms came through as promised and we are now fully into winter, much to my (and the plants') delight. Temps are back in the 70s and 80s daytime and upper 60s nighttime.
My Bear's MTF and Hashberry are working on their 2nd set of adult leaves.
The papaya, for those of you who remember that this was originally supposed to be a log of the papaya's progress, is doing fine and I've got a bunch of sexed plants, and thinking of making an F2 since the male is so vigorous.
I popped 10 each of Pure Power Plant and White Widow... time to get rolling on a couple commercial strains to see what I can do with them! Plus I will be making a seed crop from the PPP as it is a very stable and true-breeding strain, and I hope to grow it outdoors in spring (it's mostly sativa but flowers FAST).
Clones from my smashberry mom are in dirt as of this weekend. That's the second batch of clones from my new ez cloner; I just did like 10 cuttings and stuck them in the closet and forgot about them for 2 weeks!
The funniest thing that happened is that my dad, who lives a ways away, called Saturday night to say he was coming out for a quick visit Sunday...
I spent the entire morning parent-proofing my house, stacked up 3 weeks' worth of dirty laundry blocking the attic door, put away the water pipes, and sprayed Febreze on everything in sight... and what does he do, goes almost STRAIGHT to the dining room closet and goes, "?huh? what's this?" me: "oh it's a cloner for making cuttings of herbs!" him: "that's not marihuana by any chance, is it? Not that I would know what that looks like..." me: of course not! It's herbs!"
OMG.
Let's see, here's this morning's pics.
The first is yesterday's harvest
Second is a BlueMoonRocks getting big
Third is how I train my little scruffy moms to give me cloneable side shoots... that's duct tape and a bungee cord!
Fourth is a bunch of recent transplants. That's how big they get in the 6-pax.
Fifth is the 6-pax on a styrofoam meat tray... that's BlueBear's MTF and Hashberry sprouts about 3 days from first breaking dirt.
Oh hey, KP, I got your email but when I wrote to your yahoo acct it got returned?! Durrr?
Oh never mind I'm silly.... 3 s's! Try again...
Hey, Stinky!!
Thanks for the update. I'm sure all the viewers appreciate it too. Everything looks good. I was wondering about the Papayas myself. :) Aren't cool temps the greatest? :)
Bummer about the dad thing. Ha. How did he manage to get into the closet? It's kinda hard to parent/visitor - proof the place when there is so much going on, eh? :o A cloner for herbs, huh? haha. Nice. "Well, that's my a/c that's so loud...gotta get it fixed...errr..." ;)
So windsurfing, huH? Cooool. ;)
So I'm a little bummed out about my thread. From what I've seen, people tend to get more attentive closer to harvest, but I've already started to post harvest pics, (with weights & everything) and you are pretty much the only one who has posted any comments. Strange. I just wonder sometimes if I go through the whole detailed process in vain. Meh...it's still cool to have a thorough log, though. I just noticed some date discrepancies...but whatever. It just takes a long time to make such detailed posts with all those pics and such. Maybe I should go down to a bare bones log (fewer pics - just the basics). What d'ya think? OR I might break out my 'secret weapon avatar'...we'll see. hehe.
Hope you had a good weekend. I did. Nice and relaxing...not! haha
Keep bling-blingin'...

J/k SA, you deserve it with all those badass plants. I want some of those MTF & Hashberry! :cool:
Haha, sucks about the dad, but don't you just love people that really honest to god don't know what weed looks like or smells like? Makes life that much easier.
This weekend I had to hit a bong for demonstration purposes in front of this girl who came over to my apartment with one of my roommates friends. It was funny, the guy and girl came into my room and the guy is like haha, smells good in here and she was like what's that smell? And i was like pot. And she's like really? I've never smoked before, I don't do drugs, all I do is drink. So I felt it my moral obligation to try and convert her from alcohol to pot. Lol, she didn't wanna hit the bong, but she thought you hit it from the slide where the bowl goes. I just clouded out the room in one hit, and she was like wow, how do your lungs hold that much smoke. Gotta <3 teh noobs.
Mornin' f[r]oggy!
I like all the pics in your log. Why would you ever want to take them out?
I should have expected my dad to go snooping. He's a curious sort of guy and I've been doing a lot of renovations. He was probably just looking to seeif I had repainted the INSIDES of the closets too!
I even went to the hardware store and picked up some skeleton keys that fit the victorian locks, but the mechanism is stuck from a century of people painting right over the hardware! But he's a sweetheart and wouldn't hold it against me that I've turned to a life of crime, LOL! It's funny that I always flame the kids trying to hide a grow from their parents and here I am with the same problem... except that I own my own home and they aren't in danger!
I'm glad you had a nice weekend. Mine was actually fabulous... there's a sweet little Italian restaurant that just opened up on the other side of the hill and my neighbor and I finally went there for some nice Malbec and an eggplant terrine on Saturday evening. Holy shit were we in heaven.
Then Sunday night after my Pops took off, I headed over to visit a buddy who has had the blues ever since he broke things off with his [lazy and useless] girlfriend of like 15 years... and now he's got a beautiful place of his own, but I think it just hit him hard that he's the only one there and it's getting cold and dreary. So we had a little green and poked through his ridiculous collection of antique cookbooks and had a good laugh at all the absurd recipes for jello molds, mousses, aspics, and other questionably-textured foods. I'm so glad I was not a housewife during the 40s and 50s, that's all I can say!
Awwww tanx. The hashberry is still on seedboutique under Mandala Seeds, inexpensive too. The MTF is a gift from an Alaskan... Can't wait to see what pops up.Quote:

It seems that everyone & their mother has a grow log/journal now! ha.
I love when people don't know what a plant looks like or what MJ smoke smells like too. It's great. Ha. My gf still wouldn't recognize a mj plant if she saw one on the side of the road. They all love the smell though. :D
Be...benevolent.

p.s Stinky, yea I doubt I'll stop with the thorough updates. Hey, I've done this much...why stop now, right? ;) Updates soon. hehe. AND my 'secret weapon avatar!'
So last night I was making my rounds looking for ball sax, buggies, etc. with my magnifying glass and had a good look at the 'breeder male' box... discovered that one of the papaya boys has a few trichs on him. Not like a female, but enough of them to really get me interested in the little guy for breeding, so I went ahead and pollinated a couple girls from my bagseed line with him.
The PPP broke dirt this morning. Still waiting on the WW.
I'ma-go read up on Subcool's experiences with Space Dude and maybe order some seeds from that line in hopes that the male resin-producing trait is more common in his stuff.
Hey Stinky, I am sorry that I have not been around your thread so much. I guess that I know I can go directly to you when I have questions so it has made me a little spoiled. I am going to go back and read the last couple of pages of your thread because it seems like you have so much going on and perhaps I can learn a few tricks. My "Children of the Attic" are coming along, some have there third set of leaves and will have to get them out of the 4 packs like ASAP, will get some pics on your thread after I do all of that, just have so much to do right now, potting 7 in 3 gals, 8 in 2 gals, about 5 under experiment and 11 in the flower room and it is keeping me busy, not to mention that I have these buckets, air pumps, net pots and drills all around so I can do some hydro runs with these strains to see how they react.
Well, take care and will check back in.
Adieu
Hey all...been a while! Lots going on in my life, not all sunshine and daisies at the moment, but looking up.
With the big breakup I've been getting up earlier and spending a lot of time in the garden before work. I cleaned and rearranged things a bit in the last couple days and really llike how the garden is growing into its space perfectly.
Here's some pics:
#1- Here's the Bear's MTF and HAshberry again. Lookin good. 100% survival on both.
#2- Here's a BOG unknown getting frosty. She's gained some purple coloration on her sugar leaves and it seems to be advancing towards the bud itself. Yummy!!! Pretty girl.
#3- My Aghani Dream STILL sitting there doing nothing. Trying to reveg her. I expect to see some new shoots maybe in the next week or 2. It has been 2 weeks since she went into 24 on again.
#4- This is just a cool random pic I took on my way to work of a bunch of steeplejacks removing the cupola from an old building in town.
#5- WOW pollen!
Wow Stinky, your BOG's look wonderful. Bear's and Hashberry look great too....keep up the awesome work! How do you seperate all those seedlings without damaging them when it's time to transplant? (Don't say very carefully because I know this takes serious skill.)
Easy, they are already in 6-pax. Those aren't propagation trays like you would use for impatiens and shit.
What I do is wait for them to get pretty rooty. Not quite rootbound, but just to the point where they are starting to show very slight N def from having used up ALL the existing nutes in the starter mix (~40% perlite, 50% composted manure and humus, and 10% worm poop).
Then I let them get pretty dry and poke the bottom of each cell in the 6-pack until the soil plug frees itself from the sides. They just slide right on out. I think there's a transplanting pic or 2 back earlier in the log.
Found the transplant pics! They are on pg. 2 of this log. They actually came out halway decent and you can see the texture of the soil sort of.
OMG!!! This thread almost dropped off the page!!!
Let's try this again.. my browser keeps crashing... fucking Microsoft.. I need to get my trusty Mac back on its feet!
Anyway updates...
So I was lazt and planted the WW and PPP in 'used' dirt.. I'm suffering for it now; they are showing def symptoms, at only 2 nodes old, yikes. So this morning I did an emergency transplant of one pack and gave them a tiny bit of fish/kelp food... 1/2tsp in 2 cups.... or maybe 400mL with 5 mL food... why the fuck did the Americans decide to use a fucking ridiculous measuring system- or more like a ridiculous hodgepodge of measuring systems- insetad of metric? Here we are dividing everything by 12, or 16, or whatthefuckever.. I feel like I should be counting the knots in a piece of string and wearing a fucking corset still. Canncom should add to the mostly English rule and say all growers must post in metric units. Yeah. That would be awesome.
*END OF RANT*
Um so the BOG plants are only a few short days from harvest and starting to show the late N defs... IMO N def in the last week or 2 is actually a good thing because you WANT chlorophyll to break down and not mask the pure clear flavors of the aromatic hydrocarbons.
They have some seeds on them too.... I made a couple crosses to see what pops up.
Any of you who looked at the Subcools history of cannabis thread in pictures, my all time most favoritestest thead on canncom, I just discovered that he was the source for the genetic material that BOG used for BlueMoonRocks and LifeSaver... Well paint me purple and call me Shelley, it figures!!! Now I'm thinking when my Vortex beans come from cannaseur I KNOW what crosses I'll be fooling around with! :D Cool.
What else.... made a Papaya F2 with the slightly res male plus the female with the best internodal bud dev... she's a pretty one... left her untopped and her internodes are spaced at about 2 inches apart... a few short weeks into veg and bud development has already FILLED the internodal regions! Me like.
I got 2 very very very delicious red ripe tomatoes off my plant this morning and made a fabulous omlette... 2 eggs, skim milk, a dash of Cajun blackening spice. Then tomatoes, proscuitto, a handful of sharp Cheddar, and some black pepper... mmmmmmm. Wow the tomatoes were sweet. They love bloom ferts, lol! They are literally on the exact same feeding schedule as my girlies, molasses and all. BTW for any of you who like to grow veggies in the growroom, may I recommend a variety called 'Patio Tomato- Garden Red'...I t looks to be indeterminate... already bore a crop and is now bearing flowers again! Also the leaves are thick, I mean THICK, and dark dark green. It stands up to heat and drought well. And the fruit is the size of a billiards ball and dark red. GORGEOUS!!!
Okay here's some pics
1) BOG plants nearing their end (the lame runt in the L corner of the pic is embarassing!)
2) Papaya girl... my camera seems to hate HID light, look at the weird bands of color?! Durr?
3)Shitty luck, I'm lame, abusing my seedlings like this!
4) BOG Bluemoonrocks getting bushy. What a pretty plant.
5) My dog is a lazy bum just like me!
More pics...
1) tomaters from my indoor garden!
2) the fate of tomaters from my indoor garden :D
3) Everyone loves twins... Akita... Yes, it's real, this was not 2 seeds in one pot.
4) Merry Christmas to all, and to all, a good night! If you look really closely maybe you can see that some of my ornaments are miniature garden implements! (Yes it's a fake tree from Salvation Army... Did you really think that with a combined watering load of almost 200 plants between the garden and all my houseplants, I wanted to water a TREE too? :D)
5) Her Higness Miss Tess.... on her throne... from which she does not deign to descend... EVER.
Good morning on my side of the world, and nice to be updated on your garden.
Adieu
Either i haven't checked this thread lately or you've been busy. Appreciate the update too. Your thread always make me feel like i'm actually there, not just growing but daily life as well. Take care girl & happy holidays
Happy holidays to you too!
Yeah, having this thread makes me feel like you guys are around too. It makes me all warm and fuzzy inside!
Lesseeee.... updates....
Um I started using a producct called Messenger last weekend and I'm not sure if I am just imagining things but there seems to be a bit of a flurry of growth... ??? ... didn't do an untreated control so I'm not sure, but at least it didn't hurt!
I'm not exactly thrilled with the White Rhinos that I ordered from seedboutique.
In fact they suck royal asscheeks.
On one hand, yeah, they are growing like crazygonuts, but on the other hand, I've already had to cull 2 that were so badly hermed as to be considered a fully equal male and female plant.
I mean, awful. Awful awful. Like a beautiful furry afro of pistils and a complete skirt of nutsax on EVERY bud site.
I will never grow this strain again unless I can find a breeder who didn't let his genetics get all fuckulated. Meh, why bother looking, there's so many better strains out there. Oh and of the ones that haven't been flowered yet, yup, one ended up in the 'everybody loves a freak' thread. I just don't trust those genes!
All my other girlies are just fine and not experimenting with life as a transgendered pot plant. :D
Aphids in the flower room still, wtf, just been hosing them off with a jet of water and neem. They are more interested in my hot peppers than the ladies though so I'm not that worried. Haven't seen any of the telltale leaf-drop on the girls.
I have to wait like one more week to bugbomb so the 'maters get pollinated. See! Pests DO have a purpose! There IS order in the universe after all!
Stopped off at our local farmers supply this morning for 200 pounds of cow manure and humus and a bag of perlite the size of one of those big 'body pillow' things. Guess what I'm going to be doing when I get home? Hint: It involves DIRT.
Maybe I will take pics and you can see how messy my porch is.
Well that's that.
I'm supposed to be throwing a Festivus party tomorrow night. Wish you-all could come and participate in the Airing of the Grievances!
Hmm, I am amused by your description of your transgender Rhinos. Well, I put the "Children of the Attic" under the 400W last night so I will prob update tomorrow, I would do it to night, but I will be cutting clones and transplanting some other stuff that I got in the flower room tonight, I hope.
Oh, yeh, I almost forgot, I used that messenger for the first time about a month ago, and I noticed a real big increase in the foliage after the second day of use. One thing, what do you think about the directions? I mean, you can only use a open package with in, what, 24 hours and a mixed batch for only a few hours I think? Well I just refrigerated my package to try to use later, but I am a little leary on trying, what do you think. The stuff is kind of spendy as well. Your the first person that I have herd of using it besides my self.
Adieu
I have a partially used but still dry package too. I think refrigeration is the best way to go. I bet you could refrigerate mixed spray to extend the useful life just a few days anyway.
wow everytime i come back somrthing is diferent....click this accept that.....blah....
antway it is good to see things going well....be careful with the ww they seem not to be very tough....the ai has bounced back from the problems and the widow is still quite sickly looking.it is still growing though so that is good.
where did you order the ppp from i have been thinking about them myself?as well as many many others.anyway keep up the good work
