hey everyone, like many of you I've been secretly practicing our
hobby for a few years now, I was introduced to the web site by
my brother, better known as maj. pothead around here.
After reading many other posts, I've decided to put together a
grow diary of my own. Now before I get started let me just state
for the record that " this is how I do it " your methods may differ
and that's cool too, after all it's just a weed how hard can it be,
I can't seem to kill the ones in my lawn, so I think with a little
TLC my crop will be fine.

let's get started here, I'll be growing 2 strains that I've come to
enjoy for there very different quality's. first is my personal favorite
old grandad, I find for me it has excellent pain relief properties
and with over 20 years in the construction industry, these old bones can use the relief. The second is route 66, I call this one
my "forget about it " weed, as I can't usually find "my own ass with a road map and a funnel" after I smoke it, let alone remember what the hell I was looking for, but hey that's ok too !

here's some pic's of the cloning process, as you can see I let my
mother plants get a little big ,but I like bigger clones, I find them
easier to deal with and have more success with them.
I'll update the photo's as we go, once we get some roots going
in 10 to 14 days.

thank you sir, talk to ya soon.
p.s. how did you get a hold of my baby picture, for your avatar ?

[SirSmokalot]

lol
your gonna have to check me out soon too i should update here regularly when i flip to bloom.
i see u made an aero cloner. i love mine man

[lil~greensprout]

my aero cloner was giving me crap, it worked great when the outdoor temps were -40 Fahrenheit below 0, but now as spring mercifully approaches and the snow begins to recede, I noticed it was running a bit warm, at or slightly above 80.
generally I can control the temps by the amount of water in the
reservoir, but with only a 12 gallon capacity I was maxed out .
so I picked up a 24 gallon resv. and cut the lip off the rim, now
the top slips inside the resv. and works like a back wards umbrella,
completely eliminating any drips or leaks.

still waiting on them roots, but it's chopping time for others .
here's a picture of some completed old grandad slated for death
tonight, it never produced as well as it's counter parts, so I let it
continue to run for and extra 20 day's, still a little scrawny but it kicks some serious ass when ignited !

peace out , the sprout.

I got my kicks on

[SirSmokalot]

is your pump on a cycle timer for the cloner?
that will help with temps. i run mine for 1 min on/ off for 4min.

everything stays plenty wet and temps are no longer a problem

i almost forgot to say awesome job there LGS! way to kill it outta the gate!

[lil~greensprout]

no , with the bigger tank the temps dropped right back into the zone.
though tommorow I intend on heading Into the big city to pick up a digital timer !

thanks for the props on my lil~thread, coming from a pro like yourself it means alot to
me, say hey to your mom , uncle sprout.
