Bengie- Yea the bamboo sticks are key to keeping my plants up and off of the ground. I am now using a silica blast like product so I will see if I can start to get some beefier stems around here. Took a stop by your place, things are looking good. Can you raise your light anymore? It looked to me like your top colas were growing out to the side above the reflector?




Peat- Thanks for stopping in man. Yea that tent is about to get real big real fast. They are still stretching away for the time being. I was a lot better about trimming and shaping the plants this time around so I am hoping to get a couple lookers if all works out..

Hahaha, Yea I know, shes gotta get the fuck outta there, taking up way too much room, but oh well.. I think she would have been fucking bomb if not for this fungal/blight thing I have going on. Once most of the leaves went dead it was hard for her to process to many nutes.. But her clones live on, and are being cared for meticulously. I hope that I will get better results from them..


INBWhatup Killa!That fucker has been in flower its entire life, starting back in the end of June 09', beginning of July 09'. Thing is crazy.. The clones are growing, but more importantly maturing much faster than the seed plant. So I am at least holding out a little bit of hope there. Yea shes def a 4 month'er Smoke should be electric though.. I hope.. lulzzz.. Anyway Im gonna take some family shots tonight or tomorrow. Till then, peace homie..

Bengie-You can still pinch and bend that main cola down below the light so that it can actually catch some rays.. It will def make the bud larger in the end IMO..

Bengie-Ahh I see, sorry to hear that. Maybe more short plants next time?



Core-Thanks for stopping by man:wave: The compliments mean a lot coming from you. Took down that Thunk#1 last night as it wasnt really doing much anymore.. I am really sad about it though because it seems like the blight basically stopped its trich production over a month ago, so its def not all that it should be. On an up note though The two Thunk#1 clones are doing awesome, should be a totally different story from these two ladies...I hope.


Yea I really like the PC, yields well, and has a nice sweet flavor and Indica Buzz. The Crash Test is somthing that I think will also do much better this run as opposed to last, because this batch has gotten regular weekly sprays of serenade, to keep the blight from coming back, so I think I should get results that are less skewed from my lack of attention last run..



Well I am going to take a couple shots later today to show you all whats up in the garden. Things are progressing well. Really like the look of this batch as they were trimmed and trained early. Hopefully it will translate.. Only time will tell. Peace.

Yeah....i think the biggest problem is the strain i got was said to be "strechy" but i didnt think it was gonna be this much.....that one is grown out straight from seed so i dont think i can get it any smaller so i have decided to change my setup......on the side note do you know what kind of fungus you had??....and the symptoms of it cause you said mine had it thats why those leaves kept falling off.....they are still dieing off.....but it doesnt seem to be hurting the nuggs yet........hmmm just wondering ill do an up date on my thread here when the room stops spinning

Thanks for the kind words fella's.. Yea this flu has had my ass for a couple weeks now. I am doing a lot better, just cant seem to kick this cough though. What I really need is a volcano.. saving up the $$$$ as we speak..




Snapped a few shots to show whats going on right now. Again I am really sorry about not updating regularly but this flu has been kicking my ass.


The grow is going very well though. I am starting to find that I am having ph lockout issues in certain plants. The pH of the runoff is wayy too low, so I have been flushing them hard and they have been looking good.

First up is the veg.. Things are looking good, keeping that fucking blight at bay with 3 times weekly sprays of serenade...

Now on to the flower tent.. Things are going well for the most part.. Like I said I am having ph issues with two plants but other than that things are going swimmingly. Closest row is Sativa CT, Middle is indica CT and back row is Pollen Chuck..

And one closeup of a Sativa CT, she is having pH issues, but I am doing better at managing them..

Here are some shots of the Thai Haze x Skunk#1. I have been monitoring their pH a lot more closely this time around and have been feeding them lighter. They are really showing how much happier they are!

But thats what its looking like around here right now. I am going to be transplanting and taking clones real soon. So I will have more to update in the upcoming week. Thanks to anyone whos still stopping though.. Peace.

I love this stage. You can really see what they're going to do now. I think yours are going to be pretty nice.

BR-Thanks for stopping by buddy:wave: Yea it definitely has not been up to my usual standards these last two or three runs. I was wayyyyy too lax about monitoring soil ph and I think that it went really low. I also didnt have an integrated pest management program like I have now so things like the bacterial blight that I contracted a couple months ago were wiping out my crops..

Now I think have it semi-figured out, and the whole grow is cleaner, better looking and hopefully better producing when it comes to harvesting in a couple weeks.


Hazy- I really like this stage to. I finally have my ph issues under control and in my history this is the time in the grow where I get lazy and stop paying as close of attention... Not this time. I am sure to be down in the garden for 30-60min's a day now just checking plants/feeding/spraying.. I can already tell the difference that it is making. I hope that I can make it a habit hehehe..


Dr.Dog-
Thanks man, I hope that I can have things dialed in completly by this next run. I am getting closer with each run, but you know how it goes, once you ix one problem another arises.. Just gotta learn to go with the flow I guess..

Yea I have been trying to kick this sickness for a couple weeks now. The only symptom I still have is the cough.. Shit will not go away.. I really need to smoke less to really try it kick it for good, dont want to bring it home to the family over thanksgiving.. Ive seen how busy you are with your grow, so thanks for taking the time to stop by:headbange




Well ya'll I did a flush on the two that I was having pH issues with. Got the runoff back to around 6.5 so I am happy and they seem to be as well. Thunk#1's are doing fucking great compared to last time. I am feeding plain water twice then nutrients once, and they like that a lot better. Also helps to keep from having too many salts build up in the medium..

But that is all for now. These next couple of weeks are going to be hectic ones. I am about to graduate from University in less than four weeks so I will try and update when and where I can. Thanks to all for stopping by.. Peace.

Sir-Thanks man, I am feeling a lot better, I just have this lingering cough that wont go away. I need to cut back on the puffing.. Not happening at the moment tho:joint:

Ya things are going much better this round. I have turned to the feed once water once schedule and have made sure to thoroughly flush the two that were locking out.. They are doing great now, didnt even lose any leaves which was basically killing them last round because I caught the lockout way to late..

Yea I am trying to get back on my game asap.. Gonna go for some new genes after the new year and might upgrade to 2k.. Either way I will be up to 2k by May and will have a much diff setup than now.. So I am just excited over here planning away.. But anyway thanks for rolling though. I should have some pics up tomorrow things are looking nice.. :wave:



BlackRain- Yea you want to know the truth. I used to run earth juice and I had no problems feeding every single time I watered, the plants loved it. But since switching to a more refined (salt based) fert (PBP) I cant let the soil become too saturated with salts, which was why I was getting all the pH lockouts and all that bs that I was too stupid to check b4...

But now I am feeding every other watering and the plants are much happier, makes my life easier anyway. I am really hoping that this run will be back up to par with some of my ones from the past.. Thanks for stopping through, hopefully I will have an update by friday.. Peace
