[YwouldntI]

DUDE THAT SUX BIG BALLS!!!
hey man shit happens brotha sometimes its just as you said a sign.you learn from ur mistakes this next female ur about to find is gonna kick some major ass i bet ya yo.
id consider the goin and cuttin a few clones off the outdoor spot yo if ya can get at it and it can be cloned i imagine it can....
now you can get ur setup how ya want it and do the damn thang 4 real.c'mon man dont let it frustrate you nothin worth doin comes easy.
peace-Y-

 

[Prof Sublime]

Thanks Y

I am not frustated as much as annoyed. Either way I am a very optimistic man and I will preserver. Plus I am learning more n more and getting my grow dialed in.

I am hoping that whats in my soil now will be enough food to get the plants through maybe 3 weeks of vegg and then the tiger bloom will be enough to get some healthy buds. Opinions anyone?

 

[YwouldntI]

i dont use the tb alone bro,i use the foxfarm big bloom right along with it.
with seeds i never use anything but strait botled water at room temp.like 10-15 drops every so often thru the day as the soil dries,also i bottom feed the seedlings like once every other day.
as far as budding though,idont know that the tb is what ur lookin for as a one part sollution bro honestly.i dont even use it till the second week of flower.the big bloom i use off the rip as soon as switch with half doses of the grow big for th firs two weeks,then the tb.pick up one of those ff charts at ur grow shop theyre free,and it'll tell ya how they suggest you use their stuff yo.peace-Y-

edit:here goes the nute schedule off the fox farm site.see you use it with the big bloom yo.

[Prof Sublime]

Yup, I have that chart aswell as the ones from the shop. I just was curious as to if the Tb would be enough to carry me through. So Im thinking I should def go get the big bloom to go along with my TB, and follow their feeding charts. I think Ill get by without buying the grow big, as my plants cant get too big and I wont veg for to long.

Whats your medium?.. I think Imma get some ocean forest. And, do you use any of their solubles?

And I must say, many many many thanks to you. IOU BIG Time.

 

[YwouldntI]

naa bro you owe me nothin yo.
im soiless i use baccto,perlite,roottone,and guanos bro.
i use all the stuff on the chart,the whole line yo.all that stuff works great like they have it on the chart.some strains you might need a little less if they are more sensitive...
i also use some cal mag,and a few other goodies here and there.MOLLASSES IS A MUST in flower yo its cheap and it will do wonders for ur grow.make sure its unsulphered.
1 tbsp. per gallon. sweet is cool too but costs way more.
any questions lettem rip pimpin theres so much knowledge here im sure if i cant get it one of the real pros will have ur back.peace-Y-

 

[Prof Sublime]

Word up man. I got some Mollasses already so Im good there. Im gonna go hit up the shop an get some Bigbloom soon.
Is it cool to mix the big n tiger bloom into the same gallon? And you use the nutes every other feeding? Now this Ph'ing stuff. I know to ph my water after I add the nutes. But, should I be testing my runoff too? Or what?

Cheers

Imma hit my bong now for ya.

 

[YwouldntI]

yeah its cool to mix them bro,add one at a time though.i feed like this...water,water feed,water,water,feed.ur grow might need more or less this works for me though.
yes test ur runoff as well bro.mine is always a lil higher then my mix.
i ph to 5.8 and the runoff is always around 6.2-6.5.
i never had much luck with test strips to get a accurate reading,although if you get a ph up and down kit they come with a little liquid vile tester thingy its accurate as hell.i dont know what its called bro,but you just put a few drops and bam its readin like a champ.you can prolly see what im talkin about if ya google the ph up/down stuff.
lightin one up back at ya.peace-Y-

 

[Prof Sublime]

Alright word to that shit man. Seems easy enough. Imma just go get a pen of some sort or look into that kit. You know Imma be keepin yall updated on my shit.

On a lighter note, found out my purchase for my whispher fan never went through so I redid it today and it did go through. Also if I got the loot Im gonna put a frame in my box to hold my lights, thermom, and fans, all while giving my box support. Im also gonna prowl down some bigger pots.

Peacee

 

[YwouldntI]

right on yo,sounds like you got a plan stan.
pizza hut ,dairy queen give away thier 5 gallon buckets for free.you might have to rinse some pizza sauce out but its better then 5 bux at home depot.
thiers alotta places that will give away containers yo.fast food joints are good for that.
also i see peeps cuttin 2 litres at the top label and usin them...three litres are even bigger.use green if you can and the light wont bother the roots and you wont have to tape them and you can watch the root system grow too.peace-Y-

 

[Smurf]

Prof Sublime, I've just finished reading this from the start,, those plants were looking mighty fine,,, I've lost my fair share of plants to heat issues (I think most of us have), and dropped the odd light/shield on em too hehe, good learning curve tho. Spose its the best way to learn stuff sometimes. But now that your all sorted, things will be on the up & up for sure. Keep the faith & good luck with your grow!

 

[Prof Sublime]

Word for some more ideas, Y. Imma keep the prowl on, I figure I got 2-3 weeks. I think Im gonna try the 3 liter with the cut of top.

Hey Smurf, I thank you for taking the time to read my thread and thanks for the kind words. Im gonna keep up and do what I gotta do. Come by anytime. Cheers

Im off to bed work at 6am tommorow, went in at 5am today. Ugh

Btw, Im on my weed 'diet' only 5 bong rips from wake up to sleep for today. About to go do the 5th, both for Y and Smurf. PEACE

Well out of the blue today my friend, the one who I thought dicked me, called me up. So I went to his house, 1st he pulls out super good headies and a brand new Cali Vape box, so we vape up a bunch of times. Were nice an stoned. Then he shows me our plants. Three are still alive and we have two males one female, all the plants are about 50 yards apart. And it looks like the males spewed their cum already and the female is getting ready to bust out with the buds. Anyways, I got four clones today!!!!

So I put them in 100% Perlite with equal amount of water. And I put under 2 27 watt 5400ks and its gonna be 24/0 for lights. I have a humidty dome over them as well. Now, is that perlite n water thing gonna be enough to root them and get em in some soil??? I need tips for this cloning shit. Heres the pictures.

Ill BBL im busy for now.

The male is 6 foot the female about 5 foot. And thats one of my clones.
PEACE






Edit:

 

[YwouldntI]

idk bro about that clonin technique,i used to use rokwool before i got the e-z cloner. so i wouldnt be much help there maing.good deal on ur buddy callin you up,right on time none the less right when you neede some clones the most!!!
what are you gonna do with the male bro?
peace -Y-

 

[Prof Sublime]

Hey Y, imma hit up home depot an get some root hormones and get some jiffy pots to root my clones in, I think they will be better then using what I got.
I dunno what were gonna do with the males, probly make ISO. Any ideas?

Peace out

 

[cellardweller]

c'mon man dont let it frustrate you nothin worth doin comes easy.
peace-Y-

yep. too true. but it looks like things are looking up for you.
I would get those clones outa that perlite and into some coco plugs or something. just make sure to keep em wet.
and ph them!
you dont need an expensive pen, an aquarium test will be fine and it needs no calibrating, but if you got the cash then go for it.
See how karma works? Im glad you didnt go messin around out there when you didnt have ta.
Im not sure, but to me it sounds like those males were to close to that female and she might make a bunch o seeds for ya. maybe not though. I would clone the shit outta her just in case though.
Best wishes kiddo!

[Prof Sublime]

Im gonna goto a few stores in a few mintues. Ill bbl to share what I got for my clones.

Do you think a female can get pollinated even if its still that premature?

And to be quite frank, I am only concerned about my grow. And now that he knows about my grow Im kinda pissed. I think Im going to tell him the clones died and I give up for now on growing indoors. Just so I can keep my shit secret.

 

[Prof Sublime]

Ok went to local store got 4 peat pellets a bottle of rooting powder and a ph tester. All for under 12$ and its only a 1/2 mile away.

Anyway Important questions, the ph tester kit says its for soil. Is it ook to use only water in it tho? I just tested my water and its between 6.5 an 7 and I would say a little closer to 7, thats good right??

Thanks yall for the help.

Pellets are soaking and then clones are gettin dipped an put in em. Peaceee

Edit: Figured Id throw this in too. The ph tester works by puttin 10% soil to 90% water and you mix in the powder n shake n bake.

 

[Saibai]

Hey Prof, good to hear you got those clones!
That female looks good, it looks mature enough to be pollenated though, I think...

I see also that your SW female has a lot of three-fingered leaves, like mine. I though it was something to do with it revegging or something but it looks like its just the genes?
I'll visit mine this weekend and post some pics in my thread. I noticed last time though that a whole branch had mysteriously turned brown and died! I left it on there for the time being, its a pity cause that was the branch that got the most direct light. Oh well.

 

[Prof Sublime]

Hey thanks for stopin on by. That sucks that she might be pollinated, I dont know why my co grower didnt take the males out along time ago but, he did yesterday. I just dont think he knows too much about the subject. Ill be in your thread to see those snow white gals of yours, and thats weird how a branch died off.. Maybe the rest of the plant was jealous of it. Take it easy

 

[cellardweller]

those soil pill tests arent very accurate. really try to get to a pet store and get a fishtank ph test. very cheap very accurate.
