First Grow

[G13budsmoker]

Of course, our guard cat didn't think that harvest and manicuring was all that interesting,... so I just HAD to wake him up! :rasta:

^ha ha ha..."my cat ate my stash man", "i had it on the table, and the lil mother fucker ate it"......this is the first thing that came to mind sorry, so this is WHY chong's dog ate his stash:stoned:

as long as you look at it this way, its always a success. it took me a couple grows before i was happy enough with the results, and im still improving my yeild.



and im sure she is greatfull for it:jointsmile:, even if its not as much or what you wanted.


btw want a smoke report:jointsmile:

Thanks man! I try and look at everything in life as a lesson learned,.... So I'll make adjustments based on what I've learned this time round. :rastasmoke:


The wife is plenty happy,... and in fact still smoking the 4 week harvest! ( tho she has tried a nug off of the 6.5 week harvest and say's it's MUCH better ) IMHO it doesn't seem to burn quite right with the quick dry/cure method my wife wants to use/ has used on the last 2 early harvests.......:wtf: Next time I guess:thumbsup::hippy:imp:

[canniwhatsis]

No smoke report to speak of,.... the wife isn't very critical of her meds, but knows the good shiznit when she gets it. This seems to help real well with her back pain and spasms. Tho IMO it kinda couch locks her (true of most strains that help with her pain)

I tried a puff, (Work would have my ass if I had randoms ) Citrusy and Harsh,

Having not puffed in almost a decade I can't say how it would effect my wife,... or any other smoker. But, for me anyway, the first 45 minuets or so I HAD to be doing something! brain was whirling a million miles an hour,.... then permagrin set in with the cotton mouth and for the next hour or so all I wanted to do was surf the net/ watch TV and munch on something..... Mostly it reminded me of when I was smoking in Highschool, and the "Top Shelf" strain of the day was "Skunk" or "Creeper" :stoned:




Anyway, I digress.

I figure I'll keep up with the posting here since the outdoor plant isn't kicking to flower yet, so nothing exciting going on there, tho I may have to take up some topping and LST to keep her below the fence line.


Here's tonights pic of my former mother plant at Day 10 flowering. See Yall in a week!

LMAO:jointsmile:

how long did they hang to dry, and how long did they cure? cannabis is like wine, it gets better with age. i smoked some of my stuff after 5 days of hanging and a week of curing and it was still pretty harsh. i cured a couple weeks and isnt so harsh now. just remember to try and make the process as slow as you can. slower, properly cured cannabis will have the greatest flavor and burn smooth.

my G13 is like that too, million miles per hour at first, then cotton mouth, then pretty much couch lockd:stoned: spaced out.

im excited to see the harvest from this girl. i want to scrog 2 of my girls in 5G pots and have a 4'X5' screen full of buds next time around. ill be watching:thumbsup:

I asked the wife for a thought on Diana's harvest,.... "Much stronger" was all she had for me That'll work for now I guess.

I really am looking forward to letting this go all the way to completion this time, I was too eager too get the perpetual harvest going and started clones too soon. (thus the early harvest of Diana)

[canniwhatsis]

Well I knew I was going to go thru and clear the undergrowth below the screen,... but I didn't figure I'd be cutting SACKS out!

Turns out even tho purple was looking really healthy and had female pre-flowers all over her tops, she did the same thing the first two did when I put them to flower,.... just as buds started to form so too did sacks at the bottoms of the branches!

As with the first two, the sacks seem limited to the bottom and even branches covered in sacks down low seem to be 100% female up top :wtf:

If Prim pops sacks out even tho she was cut from a branch that had nothing but Female pre-flowers on it at the time of cloning I'll cut every one of the strain down.

Vance, Keep a close eye on those cuttings,.... I think you'll be just fine but beware!

Are you completely sure that there isn't any light leaks in the grow room?

[Vancefish]

I've been questioning those since day 1.

I'm figuring on giving them a good amount of veg time before flower in hopes of some stabilization, stress wise. However IF they hermi, I'll throw them out.

Good news is the Durban poison clones I traded to you should be very stable. I got those from a guy in Fort Collins who has been growing the OEM mother for quite a long time without ANY hermi's!! :thumbsup:

:S2: Tomorrow I plan to "save a lot of money" by switching to Geico. :S2: I just got a quote, and literally I will save $100 per month!! Guess I should have looked at that lizard earlier.

However that means I can FINALLY afford the A/C I need to flower these two monsters I got back in JANUARY. If all goes well I should be flowering officially starting tomorrow.

[canniwhatsis]

Are you completely sure that there isn't any light leaks in the grow room?

Yep,.... I think its something to do with whatever I did to almost kill the plant a few months ago, I can't be certain of the cause, but I know it's not light bleed.

I cut my first 3 clones while the die back was progressing, so they got a good dose of whatever poison was in the system at the time.

My 2nd batch of 4 clones was taken off of her once she was much healthier, I kept 2 of them and was going to Scrog one and do the other natural, The other 2 GDP clones were given away. So Prim is the first one of that batch that's hit flowering,... No signs of sacks yet, and it's day 10 today,.. just about the time the sacks showed up on mom.

Vance hooked me up with some cuttings off his Durban, So when all 3 cuttings rooted I had to destroy the Scrog GDP to make room to keep a Durban mother, and the other 2 Durban cuttings were destroyed in order to stay under my plant count.

I checked in with my friend that took one of the clones from the batch of clones that Vance has, she put it under 12/12 right away, and has seen no sacks or nanners. So I suspect the more recent clones are fine, I'm curious to see how Vance's do with some veg time on them.

Quick update on the outdoor plant,.....


Nothing much to report, temps have been in the mid 60's overnight and weather has cut the light cycle down so I've got lots of pistles,.... theyre gonna die off I'm sure when the cold front moves out, but it's good to see em! :jointsmile:

Little over 3' tall, bushing and filling in nicely.....


Fuckin neighbors cat pissed in the planter,... if I see that cat again I'm gonna cover the top of the soil with mousetraps.


seems to want a bit more N so I'll be feeding veg nutes tonight.


Here's a pic before I go to work. :hippy:
