The Humble Growroom

[Guest]

Dr. Dog - the only problem is when I write two names on one cup, thats a fun one. As you can see I write notes on them (to remind me which ones I have dropped). I always screw up when I try to do it 'the right way', if I don't write "this shit got dropped" on the clone, then I will toss the wrong one. I always appear more advance/organized than I really am. All my info is just rehashed.

wattup excel brotha,just poppin thru checkin you out bro.ur like me i have reminders written everywhereand i write what i do everyday on the calander in there cause my pothead ass will 4get who got what overnight sometimes hehe.peace bro-Y-

 

[Dr Dog]

regardless bro

I still admire it, I am terrible about that, kind fo funny since my day job involves calculations and remembering stuff, I cannot seem to remember which plants are which.

Even though I make a valiant effort, a few tokes, and it is more like, whats on tv?

 

[guest101]

You guys sound like sultains with a lot of wifes...
So many you cant even tell all their names!!!...
You lucky "bastards"!!!

 

[gladysvjubb]

TIP: Got an old broken venetian blind? Cut one to the size of a marker to stick in the pot and copy that as you may need.
I have to label everything, even my calander so I know what is going on.

Day 32 Flowering - Day 40 12/12 - Day 77 From Seed

YwouldntI - Thanks for the notes man, I am glad to hear about your seedlings coming up. Using the pot lift method is a great way to figure out when to move and transplant those things. Once they start drying out really fast from the roots starting to demand water, its time for the transplant.

Sqirl - Thanks for demanding the updates, its taking me a lot to get on here. I seem to be enjoying the snowdog kush more than you, I really love growing it because its so easy to swell the buds up! I think you probably needed more nutes or something, I bring it up to the point where they are barely about to get burned in the first 4-5 weeks of flowering, then slowly back off and let the soil provide what I laid down.

Gladysvjubb - Those are a great method for keeping track of plants! Why didn't I think of that?!

Frankenstein - Wish I could know which ones were female before I grew them, would make picking out the males much easier. I have never tried to grow feminized seeds, I do hear mixed opinions but I'm not sure what to think.

Dr. Dog - Making me glad you keep coming by, I have that spanish dvd I'll be ready to mail out. I was thinking some kalimist would make it nice, some near-pure sativa always pumps things up. I am trying to get more into the indica growing though, I like the mellowness of it; stoney weed makes me happy.

Good Evening

First off, sorry for the late updates; was trying to do them weekly but I don't really get a chance to be on icmag like I used to.

Great responses from everyone, don't really do much from this point out except some light feedings (I am assuming there is a good build up due to my lack of use of the clearex and constant flushing methods).
I am using nutes sparingly to make sure the good flavor is there and the chemical tastes are not.

I can say everything is stinking, the smallest kush is growing bigger and bigger with it's swelling every day. I can tell the other plants will begin doing something very similar soon. No time to guess which will be best but it looks like things will definitely be picking up soon.

excel wattup playa,great pics bro that last one is a beast yo,that girl looks amazing,you'll be chiefin good for a while when she comes down.are those in the new space now?or are you still puttin it together.?regardless its lookin good 4 sure.i been using the potlift to check them,but this soil dries up fast anyways,before they even sprouted.its pro-mix for starting seeds,its kinda light,it worked though.i got 6 outta 8 of the bagseed and just as i thought 0 of the freebies from 05,just too old i guess.as for the transplant i was thinkin wait till i see roots thru the holes in the bottom of the container,then do it.sound good?
peace fam -Y-

 

[Guest]

YwouldntI - Sounds good on the seedlings, make sure you don't let the bottom half get dried out, its not important to me really if I bottom or top water because the plant has been drying the soil out quickly enough. I can't stress moisture enough for the seedling stage, worrying about overwatering in this stage is stupid because there is a lot of water being evaporated. You can choose to either transplant sooner into bigger cups or to keep them until they form a small rootmass and then transplant. Either works fine, with me prefering smaller containers just due to space limitations and desiring more uniform growth. The ones you transplant into containers sooner obviously will grow more bushy and bigger sooner.

 

[guest101]

Looking very good mate!
As i said before, you have a couple of phenos there very productive with low internodal space and a lot of vigour in the bottom area...
Are you keeping any clones of the flowerig ones?
Youll never know when youll get that amazing personal pheno...
Off course you have to smoke them for a final call.
Keep it up!

frankenstein - Its funny you say that, they all have stretched so much with the exception of the snowdog kush f2. I have clones of most of them, which I will be flowering out shortly maybe unless I can hold out untill they are finished finally. I haven't figured out what to do about my life so I can't really do anything but plan on being in the same place for a while. I am keeping the SD1 mix around, I like that one's yeild. It is the heaviest plant of them all definitely, but the snowdog kush is in a close second (would win with a similar veg).

 

[NZjay]

bro thats an awesome shot Ex! you got em coming along nice man...

hope shes good meds..

take care man!

 

[Guest]

NZJay - Thanks, congrats on the new camera. I haven't been putting much into the pics lately. I built a new veg cab kinda, was contemplating just throwing everything I had in there to get big and then flower away. I think I might keep a clone or two but basically I am going to get a bunch of meds and then clean up, break down, and get the fuck out of here. My rent is close to 1000 a month.

 

[YwouldntI]

excel thanx for the help my man.
dam G 1000 a month thats wild yo.if shits that high you outta be buying.your just buying your landlords house for him at that price of rent.jees i feel 4 ya bro.keep a clone of everything you got that you like yo.dam that sux bro but id prolly do the same myself if i was moving too.i hate when life gets hectic it seems like the shit caves in quik before you know it you'll be back on top.peaks and valleys my man.
peace-Y-

 

[Guest]

YwouldntI - Thanks, that's probably the most inspiring thing anyone's said on this thread to me.

Good Afternoon

^Snowdog Kush f2 in front, Sd mix 1 in the back

--Definitely a difference in the way I grew the f1 and f2 snowdog kush, I like the f1's frostiness. I also started the first 3-4 weeks of 12/12 still in about 3 ounces of soil.



^Snowdog kush f1, thanks rez!


^Sd mix 5, other than the snowdog kush, the tightest and brightest nugs



Supersnowdog X hindu kush f2

 

[sqwirl]

Yeah Yeah those SnoDawgs look great all around. I never had a problem growing those ladies, I just never found the right pheno. I'm just to picky and got alot on my plate to choose from.

Day 37 Flowering - Day 47 12/12 - Day 84 From Seed
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sqwirl - For some reason you have the hardest name for me to spell on icmag. Don't ask. Thanks for commenting on the sk, its good to know someone else familiar with this strain. That sk strainguide you put up in reservoir seeds was very tastefully done and a place I like to visit often to check on.


Good Evening
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nothing much has happened lately except for the small snowdog kush (looking ready to be picked in about 30 days or so due to the small size. I am starting to flush the snowdog kushes but taking my time (I never give a plant more than around 3/4 of a gal at once. I would rather use the clearex and slowly flush while still sustaining with some dosages of flowering nutes than any other way. That way I know the plant isn't starved of nutes, but is using up it's reserves. I try to have the soil pretty much flushed out of salts by the time I have 20 days left. That way just tiny amounts (you can actually give bigger dosages because the ppm should be down) can get the plant through the last stages. I honestly think you can grow plants pretty well in just water, they know what to do when there isn't much in the way of nutrients. The big snowdog kush got its first flowering flush today. I use minimal nutrients to help reduce the salts. I use the triflex line about 1 out of 4 waterings now. The plants will get flushed now that they aren't growing anything but buds. My method is to flush while I provide a small amount at the same time. I try to use as little as possible, including additives.

Good day to all and thanks for those stopping by.

^Adjusting to go outdoors, I'm not really going to keep any clones from this run because I want to be able to move without having to transport.
(going outdoors soon)


^Sd5 mix-- small but dense buds. Its like having indica grow like SD, with the foxtail-type chunky buds. The strange thing its not solid nor big, probably crosed with a more indica strain or I really didn't grow it right. Tryin to hope the best for this one. Its in a big pot now, that helped with the yellowing and water-loss.


^Mist


^Pint challenge sno k.


^Snowdog kush f2. Behind that is a SD1 cola or two.


^I tried to drink this. (milk + water)
