Zeus- Thanks for always being the first one through buddy, I hope the pics wernt to disappointing for you. I think I am going to invest in a black cloth backdrop for my plant pics it will just make the definition that much better. Everything is going well for me ive just been so damn busy since I started my new job two months ago I feel bad for letting my IC bros sit here with out an update to check out :badday: Ill have one for you all on sunday/monday morn so get ready for that one.


Core- Yea these ladies are huge bushes this time around. The stretch is just starting to chill out and bud production is starting in a big way. Should be really fun to watch and see how much of these plants fills in. I hope alot!!! hahaha dont worry about it bud, I love updating at times like that, Ill take a nap till like 1230-1am then when I wake up I feel rested and want to do work, so i water and then do an update and thats about 4-5 hours of work right now. Ill do it again on sunday/mon morn so u just wait my friend, things are getting even bigger!!


TML- you know me buddy, always trying to do it up bigger and better than I did before, Still cant wait to see how big these ladies get for me, should be a nice yeild..(cross fingers here) hahahaha, thanks for your support bro, again ill have another update sunday/monday morn, so get ready for it!


Sammet-
I guess you could call me a jack of all strains but master of only 1 or two. I know how most of these ladies like to be treated now the only trick is to give em what they want and nothing more.. sounds easy but it gets fucked up sometimes... Thanks for stopping in, I need to make rounds around here soon...


SIR- Yea im back to my old ways, just blowing it out like usual. The blueberry is looking really awesome, and she better blow my fucking gourd because she is the whole reason my garden got infected with mites in the first place. Dont worry I trimmed off most if not all of that undergrowth on the SS 3 days ago so she is pumping all her energy into her top colas. I hate popcorn buds...

So explain to me what a hempy bucket is. I would love to try hydro, I just dont have the space at the moment. Once I get truly organized at my new house Then I will be trying more experiments with diff mediums. If u wanna give me a rundown on the hempy bucket im sure I wouldnt mind popping a shack or two in one to see how they work out for me. Thanks for always stopping in with the helpful comments and support :headbange


BR-Damn good to see you round these parts dude. Yea got a bit of a jungle going right now, If I had double the wattage and 1 and 1/2 times the plants that would be ideal and I would have weed to last me years. but all in good time. I hope I dont let you and T down with this grow. I will really try my best to make this the best one yet!!!!


Buzzed-
Thanks as always for stopping in, Youll have beautiful ladies soon enough bud dont worry bout a ting mon:rasta:




Well im out of town on business right now and will be back on sunday. Should be fun to do an update and check everything out then since it will be around day 20 or so of flower. So anyways check out the thread around Sunday night/Monday early morn and I should have an update up.

To all of my gro bro's on here sorry I havent been by your threads at all lately just so damn busy and not enough time on IC ever really. Ill try and make up for it over the next few days and see if I can work to get caught up with what everyone has rolling. Peace and love to all ya'll im out :muahaha:

NZJAY- Yea buddy ive been super busy with my other job as well, you can probobly tell since I said I would update on sunday and now its tuesday and Im finally updating... I need to come by and check out your bunkbed setup sounds like a cool idea, and now that its up to 1200 watts it should really be pumping out the nuggets for you. Thanks again for stopping by my friend!




Well all sorry its taken me so long to do this damn update, Im just super busy and it doesn't look like its going to stop anytime soon. Its good for me though I am learning a lot and really liking what Im doing so dont worry about me...

The grow is doing great even with me being super busy. I have a closet that is too crowded at the moment. Im thinking about putting 2 of the crappier plants outside and just seeing what happens. I think that If I take them out I will yeild better than If I leave them in. So i gotta figure out what im gonna do and do it soon. Temps are staying perfect for me this time around lows of 73 and highs of 79, doesnt get much better for me. but I got a lot of pics so lets get right to that.

Here is the Sugar Shack I have chopped back a ton of her lower growth and she is doing much better after the trim. check her out.








This is the DJ short Blueberry and wow does she ever reek of Berries this plant has been a pleasure to grow so far besides having been infested with mites when I got her... No mites anymore, just blueberry flavored buds.. I love it!!!





The Blockhead is huge and thick, just like Im hoping her buds are gonna be by the time she is done. If I can get her some more space I think she will do a lot better..







Here is the Pinky pheno Mongrul topping out at around 5ft tall, she is gonna have a huge top cola and it should be cool to watch it fill in!



This is the greasy pheno mongrul, she got too tall and was at risk of being burnt so I bent her at a 90 degree angle, she doesnt mind to much and will adjust over the next couple of weeks.



These are both of the Indica pheno Pollen chucks, they are doing very well and should bear a good amount of buds in the end.







Here are the sativa Pollen chucks, they have longer colas forming and will end up yeilding almost double that of the indica phenos, u just wait and see.







Then I got two last shots of the closet to show u actually how fucking full this thing is, I really need to take 2 plants out so I can get some more space. I think it will be the Sweetooth and the L pheno AC. But I will let u know when I make the decision.




I am also having a terrible time with cloning this time around. Im still using peat pellets which in the past have worked about 90% of the time, this time I have had 0% success so far. I lost about 30 clones, and have taken another 17. If I lose my strains especially the blockhead or Blueberry I will be fuckin Irate I really hope I can get my shit together and figure this out. Thanks for stopping by and checking out the grow. Who really knows when I will update again, but I will try and do it before the end of the week. You guys make it all worth while, cant wait to see how this crop turns out. Peace yall,

you got some trees goin on here bro, most impressive display.
I am looking forward to seeing your plants bud out, especially the PC, I can see lots of similarities between what I grew out and what you have

I use peat pucks when cloning, I find that you have to really watch teh wetness of them, I tend to leave a blank one in there to use as a water gauge, when it is dry, time to water the others, and I soak them then, seems to work for me

heya NK....wow man its full indeed...nice looking plants you are showing off...them tree'sq are looking realy fine !!
sorry to hear about the clones man...i've cut 72 clones for a friend 3 weeks ago and i lost 5....
there's nothing to it realy ...it go's like this...snip, dip, plant....i also wanne say that a 35 degree angle is much better then a 45 degree angle to cut....this way it will show more of the cambium,this way it will be able to produce more roots.
and maybe you should change your MO for cloning....just get a bag of soil with little nutes in it and cloning gel/powder....and a dome is a must the first week !!!!

I agree with Core here, a dome is needed, no ifs ands or buts.
I also, cut my clones on a 45 degree angle, but I also then slice up the length of the clone a bit, and make sure it has cloning powder in there. I work with about a 90 to 95 % success rate. ALso I use a smaller cfl, like 20 watts or so for the first week

We all get busy in life. It's a good thing through my experience :yes:

Looks like your trees are rockin :yes: Gonna be nice to see you pull off a killer yield :woohoo:

Odd that you'd be having clone troubles with so much success in the past :chin: Could be something to do with environmental change since the move?
I do know however BB is a hard to clone plant genetically.
Best of luck with that :ying:

Great early bud and frost production...this round is setting itself up nicely :lurk:

DRDOG- Yea I really love the Pollen Chucks, they are just awesome smoke, after curing out for the better parts of 2 months they just kick your ass and taste great, both phenos have very different tastes now.. but I love both of them. Yes I do see a similarity between our PC's this time around, I dont know if they will produce better as single colas or as multi-tops... this run will tell us though. As far as cloning goes..... I have been using peat pucks and a humidity dome since I started growing and have until this last run had great sucess. I dont think that I payed attention to their moisture level well enough the first time around, and also the floor it was on was quite cold.. I then went out and bought a seedling heatmat so now they stay nice and warm. I just dont know whats up but ill figure it out dont worry! thanks for stopping by and keeping it real around here my :friends:



Sammet- Yea its nice to see that I will get a nice harvest of buds, sucks that I am going to have to go back and pop a bunch more seeds.... so now I gotta do the sexing and all that bullshit all over again... Ohhh well I got a bunch of stuff that I had wanted to pop anyway.. can u say Thai Haze x Skunk#1??? hahaha thanks for stopping by mate!


Core- Yea They are all really tree like this time around, I really like this style of growing, I am going to get a secret jardin 4x4 tent and a 1000watt hps after this run and just fill that tent soo full of trees its gonna be crazy. I want to really see how much I can yeild with that size of a light.. but I dont know its still really up in the air between a digi 600 or the magnetic 1000.. I think I might just try using a plug tray and some seedling starter promix and using my dome over it on the heating pad.. That should hopefully take care of my cloning problems... Or atleast I hope it will. Thanks for stopping by man the trees just keep getting bigger!!!



Buzzed-
As always thanks for stopping in buddy!!


Zeus-
I dont know did you miss one??? probobly not since I never have any time to update this thread anymore since I work do damn much. But its all good and I am going to work as much as I can while I can and save up some money while I got it. I hope that I can get really large yeild out of this run I vegged them for a really long time and they have nice developed root systems. I cant wait to get my tent though so I can really get my setup going good. Thanks for stopping by my friend!



TML- Yea I like being kept busy and it doesnt hurt to have a nice paycheck every week. Yea they are getting bigger and bigger, I just love opening up the closet because I dont do it very often so they are much bigger every time.. If I lose this blueberry I am going to be very pissed because this pheno looks like its an awesome producer and it has some of the largest buds I have ever seen at 27 days. They just smell awesome more blue smelling than even blueberrys can smell like... I love how weed can do that.. Dont worry about the cloning, if I fuck it up I will just reveg the one BB that I do have and the same with the blockhead.. Anyway I will be popping new seeds tommorrow so here we go again hahaha. Thanks for stopping by my friend..




I will be updating in just a few so stay tuned dudes!!!!

SO here we go...

All these shots are from earlier tonight which is day 27 of flower.. THe blueberry is getting huge and doing it fast. Also the blockhead is starting to bulk up like she likes to I love how hard her nuggets get, really could knock someone out with one of her big colas!! Pollen chucks are doing well, I think they like to be single colas though, but this run will tell us..


Here is the Sugar shack she is doing much better now after she was pruned back a week ago. check her out.









This is the Blockhead, If I lose my last clone of her, which could easily happen right now. I will try and reveg this plant after its done flowering... I will be pissed If I lose her... Shes my fav..





Now were coming up on the new star... the Dj Short Blue Berry. WOW she stinks like berrys even more blueberry smelling than blueberries.. Gotta love how herb can do that.. She loved being topped and is just blooming fully and is loaded with nugzz check it!







Here is the Pinky pheno Mongrul.. She has a GIGANTIC main cola.. Its taller than my forearm is long and just filling out more and more. I cant wait to see what that thing is going to look like at 75 days of flower I know its just gonna be huge!!





This is the Indica PC's.. THey are starting to stack up nicely and should both end up with a nice set of buds...





Here are the Sativa PC's they are gonna have some really nice big colas on them, I cant wait to see how big they get when being able to be left up for 70+ days.. hehehe





This is the Greasy pheno mongrul. She has been leaned over but she is still budding out nicely. check her out..





Now just a shot of the closet




Well I got a new method of watering that is saving me a lot of time and more importantly a lot less effort for my back so I am going to be able to update every time I water now. So hopefully I will be on more but who really know.. Dont worry about me though things are going well. thanks to everyone for stopping by and being positive. Peace yall:wave:

Plants are looking good, NK, very uniformly tall, you are leaving the PC up for longer than 70? I dont think mine would have made it that long, she decided on her own when she was ready to be done

SIR- Yea the progression is good this run, a bit crowded but good still. I will only be using this setup for this current run and then I am investing in a secret jardin 4x4 grow tent to contain my little operation. I also am thinking of upgrading my lighting.. but thats all still up in the air.. thanks for stopping by sir!!



DrDOG- Yea they are nice and tall this time around. I will be leaving up my sativa pheno PC for about 70 days or until it is done. My Indica pheno finishes up almost perfect at 60 days.. the sativa looked like she could have done better with another 10 or so days so we will check it out this run. Thanks for stopping in as always my friend:wave:
