Hey man I just wanted to know what you used to support the pvc screen. It kinda looks like it is just floating there, lol. The setup is great love it man. Keep repin the medicine.
Hey Brothaganja, thanks for checking out my grow. The screen is supported from underneath with 3/4" plastic pipe hangers. I also use a couple to hang my screen up on the wall when not in use.

I will be returning home tonight from work. I can't wait to see how my girls are doing. This is the longest I have ever left them. Well you all keep up the good growing!
 
Hey Asil,

I had another question, I didn't really see anything that says how old these ladies are. How many weeks total and also how many weeks in Veg and In Flower? Thanks man, this is truly a great small medicinal operation here. Bless

Brother, They where germed on 5-3, and sprouted on 5-5. I vegged them for 35 days. And today they are 30 days into 12/12. I can't wait to see how they did this week.

I can definetly tell the difference in growth from vegging under a 400mh. Compared to 164 watts of 6500k cfl. I have to say I like the internode stucture. These little plant a stout and tightly compact. Well I hope this tides you over till about 9pm. I know I can't wait!

Wow great grow man! :bow: I'm thinking of doing a bagseed grow for a test run soon as well. How good was the bag it came out of?
Hey Thanks for stopping by. I really am not sure how good the bag was it came out of. I do know that is will be better and bigger though.

Man this is a learning experience for sure. I had a lot of growth and the budsites are even more pronounced. Some are even starting to frost up. Just one little problem. One of my plants hermied and I think I got all the nanners but I am not sure. Also when removing one of the nanners pollen fell out on to some of the leaves. My question is would you pull the plant or leave it thinking the damage is done?

I forgot to put my memory card in camera so you all will have to wait a day or so!

Let em grow out, 1 or 2 budsites may had been pollinated but I don't think that justifies removing the whole plant. :2cents: Keep an eye out for new testicle growth; if it gets out of hand, then remove the plant.

The NYCDxC99 roots are just beautiful. She'll definitely turn out vigorous. :yes:

Keep us updated :smile:

spray em all down fast and prevent the seeding of anything. and keep an eye if you feel up to it, or need the smoke, but its not worth it to me at least. better safe than wind up with an entire room of beans..... i have seen it happen off of 1 or 2 lil nanner that escaped the vigilant eye of tenascious growers. even sadly i myself have had the misfortune of seeded plants and i didnt even see a single nanner while growing or at harvest time. i just missed 1 on a new "seed" plant and about 10 proven ladies paid deeply for it, so did my harvest weight and bud quality. my 2 cents hope it helps

Day 30 of 12/12

Day 30 of 12/12

Ok well here are some quick shots for you all. I did some slight trimming and pruning. On the hermied plant I cut a few of the smaller branches off. That left just four main branchs for me to watch. I checked each internode for nanners and removed them. I think I still will have some pollenated buds but hopefully not all of them. I maybe should of pulled the plant, will the nanners grow back?

The budsites are looking really good and are just starting to frost up. I am getting excited to see them bulk up and put the frost on. I can't wait to have a little taste.

Wow so potentially you could get yourself some seeds too! I hope you can get away with the others being ok.

Oh my days!! Trimming and pruning at day 30? Your not messing about!! Fan leaves or popcorn? I swear i wanna do some but i freeze with fear when it comes down to the crunch.

Asil is the man lol

Well I am out of town again. Now it is raining and have nothing to do. So I opened the phone book and found a hydro store. I think I will go browse around. I sure miss my ladies.

On a side note. While I was gone last weekend to my family reunion things got interesting for my seedlings. I came home to the strongest smelling spearmint, pineapple smell. My whole house just smelled dank. So I filled my carbon filter up and with in fifteen minutes there was no more odor. I still have no roots on my SD x chem d. Anyone have any experience cloning these?

Haha are you going through withdrawal's my friend.

Dank smells are good IMO, have you used any root stimulator's? H and G one is good and now i am trying Bio-Bizz root juice which is cheaper and seeming just as effective

Withdrawal's is not even close to what I feel. I am home now and feel alot better. I have so much work to get done thiis weekend before I leave again Monday.

I just checked on my ladies. Refilled the rez and ph'd to 5.3. I didn't add any nute becuase it seems they are drinking more water then nutes so I lowered my solution to 1200 from 1400. You know it is crazy I have a blue lab combo meter and before I added more water to the rez the EC was 3.1. Now I believe it is like 2.4. My plants don't even blink at this level. this seems extreme for feeding but until they tell me otherwise I am not going to change anything.

I also trimmed some fan leaves from some of the sites to let more light get to the lower sites. I am confused on this, I have seen some people strip there whole plant of all fan leaves and some people say don't touch anything, Anyone have any comments?

The plant that hermied looks sad. Alot of the pistols have turned orange and the plant in general looks like it is on its way out, except for the main cola. I am going to let it go and see what happens. I will get you all some picture tommorrow night.

Good growing all and stay high.

Haha but the funny thing about it is you are going away again! You like it really don't you? lol

Well between you and me i left mine for a few days also and my E.C hit 3.0! I was horrified at first but they were not even stressed or anything. I might go with your way of thinking and aim for 2.2 to 2.4 then bring it down as i come to the end.

Ah that's sacrilege!!! Only joking when i found them mites and my arse started twitching i pulled 12 off straight away, i have noticed more bud's have came into play as a result but i've read it hampers bud size. I'm really considering doing the other plants now.

A man the hermie! Is the bud still good to smoke on a herm? I really have no idea
