Metal,
Opie is right.....flat white reflects more evenly. In my last grow log on page one if you read you'll see what the results were from the my painting the walls flat white and why.
http://boards.cannabis.com/grow-log/...ng-rhinos.html It actually started when I bought a cooltube and started using it....BIG hot spots etc...
Thanks for the comments folks. I appreciate everyone stopping by. :)
Opie....I know I'm being a noid.....but when you ARE being a noid you never THINK you're being a noid. :D
i just couldnt not do this...

The Noid (voiced by Pons Maar) was an advertising character for Domino's Pizza in the 1980s. He was a villainous red-suited character who attempted to ruin Domino's pizzas but was constantly thwarted.
In 1989, Kenneth Lamar Noid, a mentally ill customer who thought the ads were a personal attack on him, held two employees of an Atlanta, Georgia, Domino's restaurant hostage for over five hours. After forcing them to make him a pizza and making demands for $100,000, getaway transportation and a copy of The Widow's Son, Noid surrendered to the police. Noid was charged with kidnapping, aggravated assault, extortion and possession of a firearm during a crime. He was found not guilty by reason of insanity.

What? I had no idea. I don't know about yous all, but I come here to learn how to grow marijuana, share any knowledge I may have in that area, and have some fun friendly conversations along the way. I was thinking a bitch thread might be one of those fun and friendly ones, but what are you going to do?Quote:

They said it would be a half hour, and I'm waiting, I'm waiting, I'm waiting for just under 2 hours. The girl told me that they have being doing almost exactly double the normal amount of prescriptions. Gotta love the holidays. Oops crap, I hope that's not bitching too much.

Why can't my plants look like yours?
Because she knows how to grow better than you.
Why am I the crappiest weed grower ever?
Because you think you are.
Why do I always get some problem with my plants?
Because you haven't yet figured out how to remedy all your problems, but has anyone?
Why do my turtles not get along sometimes?
Because they need space, and it's hard to get that in the enclosure.
Why does my right knee hurt right now?
Usually knee pain is the result of an injury, such as a ruptured ligament or torn cartilage. But it also could be a medical condition such as arthritis, gout or infection.
Isn't this a grow log? I wanna see some buds weedhound!!
What's wrong with gout and infection?
I do happen to like gout and infection but the smell doesn't get accross the computer screen as well as it might.....:D
I KNEW the whining forum was the way to go here. Not just whining but ENDLESS whining about NOTHING....I mean really.....you just can't beat that. Should be very top forum listed imo. ;) Now i have to whine because there's no forum about it instead of using my precision whining for other purposes.
At least W3 no longer has any problems in life thanks to Opie and Rock. :D
W3 let me tell you a little story about my growing.....in soil. This was 2 summers ago and was what led me to hydro growing.
Friend gave me a TON of seeds...bagseed. Build outdoor stealth setup for plants. Buy 50 3 gallon pots. Fill with potting soil and soil around the house (WRONG!!!) Plant 150 seeds....three to a pot (WRONG!!) Wait for 3 weeks. (WRONG!!) See very small plants come up but not very many. Invite friend to troubleshoot. Friend says what I am seeing there are weeds....NO mj sprouts. Dump everything out......seeds planted WAY too deep (about 2 inches down) (WRONG!!) Everything sprouted but couln't find their way to the top because they were too far down.
Repot with fresh soil and dirt from home. Plant 150 seeds in 3 pots.....wait another 3 weeks. Nothing. Turns out I let the seeds (which were old anyway) exposed too much to the air and ruined them.
REPOT 50 3 GALLON POTS WITH FRESH POTTING SOIL ETC..... This time plant 60 seeds in rapid rooters so I can MAKE SURE they sprout. (I had picked up a new oz and it had some blueberry aghani seeds in it). They DO SPROUT!! Plant them all in the (now) 60 pots. (Realize that I started this project at the beginning of May....it's now halfway through JULY!!) :wtf: Transplant them all into the pots. They ALL grow 3 inches high.....and then stop. That's it....3 inches. All of them. EVERY SINGLE ONE!. I check out my friend's grow and hers are 1 foot high....slight difference. Turns out that the SHITTY home dirt I used (WRONG!!) was like clay and didn't allow for proper drainage etc...) ..the roots could not grow through it so when they hit the edge of the rapid rooters they just stopping growing. That's why they were all the exact same size. So transplants 60 little 3 inch plants into new potting soil. (I'm now hitting August....harvest is in middle of October-ish) SO....they finally start to grow somewhat....not too well because now the days have shortened and they've begun to flower. Just when I think I'm safe we have a record two week "heat storm"....temps between 106 to 113 degrees F....without fail for two weeks straight.
That was pretty much the last of it. I had fans going, extra shade misting them during the day......ha ha ha. When all was said and done, (sexed etc...) I ended up with about six half-assed female plants and my total take from the grow was less than 2 oz.
I switched to hydro and on my very first grow I got five females from 8 plants and harvested nine ounces. AND I harvested pretty early too. I'll never go back to soil.
PS....PRETTY GOOD WHINE EH??? :S2:
Not to bad about an 8.5 on the whineometer :), but did I not see a thread about you dabbling with the dark side again not so long ago ;).Quote:

Pity I missed this whning thread sounds like it was a laugh.
Lol, yes I did jack...and do you notice....the voodoo immediately returned. Somewhere in this log I linked my most recent terrifying experience the the dirty side.....and it was just as frightening (and seductive :eek:) as I remembered.....:wtf:
LOL WH I'm beginning to understand about that. Giving the old dirty stuff a go myself for this batch of mothers. Had some beautiful looking SIlver Haze & Crimea blue seedlings right up to they got five nodes & I thought I could add a bit of nutes. WRONG :(
They haven't grown at all since just before christmas :( so re potted them today into new potting mix & removed the badly affected leaves, fingers crossed they will come back especially on the CB as Barneys seeds proved to be pretty bad on the germ ratio's.
Wow WH, just really... wow! That is a heck of a story and some damn precision whining. That was a huge amount of trouble and expense for not even 2 oz yield. Think about how much wage you earn per hour (or could), add up all your hours for that dirt project, and think of the weed you could have just bought for all that. And then compared to your next harvest in hydro, it's enough to drive anyone to hydro and give them a complete and utter hatred of dirt farming. I think I more completely understand your disdain for dirt. I have no doubt that you could grow in dirt with a little guidance and practice, but I'm glad you don't.
Opie it was INSANE. My friend was sitting outisde in the middle of this heat storm with a fly swatter because she got this grasshopper HURRICANE come through. She was literally swatting grasshoppers with this fly swatter in 110 degree heat.....all fucking day.
So the next year she says to me...."When are you going to plant your outdoor stuff?" and when I laughed hysterically from a prone position on the floor she then said
"oh come on....it wasn't that bad. :eek: :eek:
A little bit of an insane time is okay now and then, but that seems too damn crazy!
Give her one of these next time *passes 2 cann capsules* and she'll be just fine.....
got my vote.:thumbsup:Quote:

The first two photos are the larger plant and the third is "Shorty" who's got some pretty good little x-mas trees going on herself. I've had no more problems with defs etc so I've now gotten religion for reglular flushes of the system. :thumbsup:
Beauty plants, WH!
Shvl
So the other day before the weather issues started I snipped off a pretty good size (8 gms wet/2gms dry) bud to study and do a subjective bio assay on. :D
It hasn't dried very well due to....again.....weather issues.....but when I went to go pick it up guess what I found there? A seed. :wtf:
At first I thought conspiracy..... the entire scene had a JFK "magic bullet" feel to it with the seed just sitting there all out in the open and pristine looking (nice RIPE seed :eek:) but, alas, it was....indeed....a seed. ;)
This is how I discovered I have (hopefully HAD) a light leak. This plant is in the same spot in my room as the seedy MK. I had actually just added another layer of curtains in my room to make the area darker......not because I thought I had a light leak but because the original curtains are stunningly sucky and take all sorts of paper clips, velcro, doorweights etc to keep closed (and obviously even THOSE didn't work very well) so i JUST added those on about a week ago and they've made things not only darker but much easier to deal with at "closing" time. I guess it will simply remain to be seen if that has fixed the issue or not. The other thought is that there IS a dehumidifier in my space....and two teeny little lights that shine from it....a green one and an orange one. I'll put tape over those as well so to keep out any other bad voodoo and "cover" all my bases. :D
I don't know HOW many seeds are in this plant and I haven't subjectively bio-assayed it yet either but I'm seriously hoping that I love it enough to make use of the seeds that I'm very sure will soon be mine. :stoned:
maybe i should just stop in and build you a lil room:wtf:
wtf, i cant belive u found another bean:thumbsup:
nutty, just nutty:D
Wow, nice haul.
You really think the little lights on the humidifier could be causing the seeds? I don't know. Sounds kinda fishy to me. More likely bad curtains perhaps.
Good luck and good job.
I'm thinking so too Opie....these lights are super dinky....like a 1/10 of the size of a reset button on your basic surge protector (i DO think a surge protector reset button would be too large for my room but I don't have one in that area anyway....) and I know I've used this dehumid before and not gotten any seeds so I'm pretty sure the problem was in the curtains (especially around where my ducting is) as well. The new layer of curtains I added are 2 layers of black and are much larger and longer so there arent any little spots I have to go back and clip etc. Hoping that makes the difference. :)
Sounds to me like the curtains were the culprit, and you have remedied the situation :thumbsup:
yeah, she went with longer, darker curtains.
woopie...:wtf:
me..
i woulda been more like...
2x3 studs
temp hardboard
pocket door
spakle, paint,
cut vents and loovers
hook up fan thru new wall.....
but wait,,,,
oh geez, maybe thats what she was talkin about:wtf:
12 cfls would be another fine example....:D
ahh the good ole dayze:wtf:Quote:

They kind of crack me up too. It seems like they should be motorized somehow. It sure likes an efficient placement though.
Has anyone found out what the shape of the light intensity is on the CFLs yet?
oh, they worked.
they were spaced real good,
that was b4 the HPS.
its hard to tell, but there were 12 at the peak of it all.
those were red spec.
shape????:wtf:
here we go again.:wtf:
It looks like there should be a ferris wheel in there with all of those lights...
so if you wait _________ weeks, is it possible to yield over a lb off one plant of the master kush?
According to the breeder of it I believe the maximum he stated was 500 gms per plant which comes out to very close to 18 oz. Could I MYSELF get a pound off of this plant? I seriously doubt it. (most I've ever gotten off a single plant is 8.5 oz)
Not only do you need the right plant.....you need an excellent setup including plenty of light and space to work with plus proper room conditions and most likely even something like C02 to boost the yield. X-Crispi grew a 19 oz plant but he had five gallon buckets and 2kw worth of lighting. It takes much more than X-weeks and a good yielder to get to the finish line with those kinds of numbers. :D
Now if that isn't the truth, I don't know what is!! I haven't heard better advice in ages!! :thumbsup:Quote:
