On Base with Major Cottonmouth

[Maj.Cottonmouth]

Howdy y'all

I have been meaning to start a catch all thread for shit I have going on so here it is. Please feel free to post whatever you want whenever you like. No rules other than don't be a dick, beyond that go nuts.

Here is a video to kick things off and I will be back later to post some shit. This is four Dutchgrown plants from a DG's Select Mix pack and a cut from the old bag seed plant I ran last round.

Thanks yort, luckily youtube has a pretty large selection of music to throw over your videos so I can usually find something good.

So about me, I am in my 40's, I live near Portland Oregon and I grow legally for myself and two other card holders. I am currently growing in coco using the KISS method and I use blumats for watering. I have a 10' x 10' bedroom that has a wall dividing the room into a small veg area and a larger flowering area. I started growing right when I joined IC three years ago (wow time flies). I grew in dirt first but I was strongly attracted to hydro and ended up running a RDWC system for a few rounds but it is not very compatible with growing from seed if you don't have the room to start more than you need so you can replace the males. My last hydro run I ended up with only one fem plan and it was the final straw. Once I settle down and grow from mother plants I will probably go back to hydro.

My current grow is the first time in quite a while that I have not done a test grow so I have been lazy about documenting it and I plan to continue that for this grow and I will just post sporadic updates here.

I recently popped six each of two test strains. Biker Le Blanc from Karma Genetics and then two days later I started Lemon Kush from House of Love. The best three from each group will go into flower and I will start threads for them then. I need to build a reservoir for the six blumats I will be using once these go into flower. I am using a self topping res on the plants currently in flower and it works really well so I will be building and documenting another one and I will post a tutorial for it.

My current grow is four plants from a pack of DG's Select Mix (Sweetest C99, Dieslrella, Ogre99) and I have a cutting from an old bag seed plant I ran last round.

On 6/21 I germed six seeds and four of them broke ground but all four were females!

Here they are on 7/27 before and after being topped and trimmed.

They were upotted to 3 gallon smart pots on 8/7 and moved into the flowering room. The video in the first post is these plants.

I also have a Mad Dog Madness x Sour Dog plant from House of Love that I was going to toss because I had only taken it as a clone to practice cloning in straight coco and I needed the room in veg but I decided to dig a hole in my backyard and toss it in the ground with some fresh coco. Here she is on 7/3 when she was put into the ground and below is a video of it from yesterday.

oh man i don't wanna post if i can't be a dick (read: tagged)

Welcome welcome, glad you gentleman could join me here.

So my neighbor from across the street just popped over to have me look at something he found when working on his house. Our houses are the same floor plan and built by the same crappy ass crew. Our porches have posts going around the outside and some of them naturally are load bearing. He was replacing his and one of the load bearing ones he pulled was all rotted on the bottom because they did not even put gravel down, they just stuck it in the dirt. I have two that I thought looked funky anyway but now I know they are fucked up so one more project to add to the list.

 

[Maj.Cottonmouth]

Still working on the porch, I will post some pics when done.

Here is a video from my room.

I found out today that my unemployment has run out so I have been pretty depressed and generally freaked out.

The porch is mostly done, just one post to cut out and concrete the bracket in and then I am going to seal up the expansion joints and paint the posts.

I found fucking spider mites in my flower room again so I sprayed with Azamax and I removed the old bag seed plant that was in there. It seems to be the one the mites really like and I think it is attracting them. It was the same strain that was the worst infected last time. I also have a pyrethum bomb on the way that I will be setting off in the flower room.

 

[Maj.Cottonmouth]

I found an interesting article about a couple scum bag cops I though y'all might like. Let me know if you don't like clicking through to a link and I will post it here but it is a long article.


The Setup
Chris Butler wanted to be a media celebrity and a badass, until he made what turned out to be a big mistake. He asked Diablo to write about him.

^^^^ someone posted a story about that guy and a cop buddy of his stealing and selling things out of an evidence room a while back

i hope both of them get put in general population

 

[Maj.Cottonmouth]

Here is a little outdoor update, this is a Mad Dog Madness x Sour Dog clone that had grown into a monster and I was going to toss it because I needed the room but I decided to toss it in the ground and see how it did. Seems to be ripening nicely to me

It has been feeding on the run off from my vegging plants and sometimes water from the dehuey with some Sea Grow that I got as a freebie.

[Maj.Cottonmouth]

The more the merrier for sure, very glad to have you here.

Honestly I have been very depressed for a while and my garden has not been getting the attention it deserves but is still doing well. I will get a new video up tonight or tomorrow of the flowering room. I need to transplant everything currently in veg so high ho high ho

I found out today that my unemployment has run out so I have been pretty depressed and generally freaked out.

Been there before brother, a couple of times. A spot of the blues today as well with the return of the cold weather.

Best of luck, if I could offer you advice to get out of a funk I would. Think of your lady plants Or if you a have a dog, think about that. Anything to get motivated.

Thanks for the videos, pretty cool as well

 

[Maj.Cottonmouth]

Thanks wooly, one of my main problems is getting motivated to do anything but I am trying

New video of the flowering room, these are four Dutch Grown seeds from a Select Mix pack and they are at five weeks of flowering.
