Have you lowered or stopped nuting that big Jack yet? I damn near starve sat heavy expressions like that. Too much food and you can make plants hold on longer than they or you want. I guess in coco pebbles (the medium youre using) you might not want to go nuteless - just a guess.

Baby Jack looks real nice! So do the other lil girls.

I cant understand why youre having such a hard time with cloning - esp since you've got that fancy cloner. You clean everything and rinse thoroughly, right? Maybe you need to dumb it down.

I strip the leaves I wont need, cut long and immediately stick in a glass of water. Then set my prepped plugs in a black take-out dish. Take the cutting and give it a fresh angled cut (I like to make that cut through a node), dip in the water then in cheap rooting powder getting a big clump of it on the end and into the plug. I put about 1/4 in of water in the dish by dribbling it over the tops (bottoms in my case) of the plugs so that the powder washes over the outside of the plug. This carries some of it into the water surrounding the plug bases so that as they draw more water in they are drawing the excess powder in too. Under a couple of cfls in a warm closet (no exterior walls) and its all good. Besides the plugs with those wigglers, I almost never lose a clone.

Err no? I began flust last night because I just can't stand this thing any more lol but I don't think I fucked up. Its just on another level of growing I haven't reached yet. I'm sure after this second round i'll figure it out.

Thanks man - they enjoying the upgrade from the tent.

New ushio bulbs on the way :D

Cloning trouble because lack of space so i go to this aero thing and we'll it don't work well and now i'm back with the root riots so I'll probably nail it in another 50 or 100 lol... already went thru alot of clones and I clean everything really well and I'll soon have a clone dedicated light and a much stronger veg light :)

I'm going to clone the jack diesel - already took cuts - just high as fuck and not trying to ruin this last attempt of saving this awesome plant. Along with some veggers and make some stock to fill the room with.

:tiphat:

Hit up CH9 about their Jack33 - the description matches the plant a bit - but I don't think shes ready - I think it might be a 16 weeker... seriously - the week 5 plant just watch looks like a week 2/3 indica plant. SHAWEET! Super Sativa sounds dizank. I hope my sativa loco comes out SUPAH sativa - but she isn't stretching much :/

I do my clones like wildgrow does. I only lightly mist them When they first go in and then don't touch them for 10 days. I leave the lid on. From the pics you posted I think you might be misting them to much.

Another tip I was told a few years back is to clip cuttings lower on the plant. I bealive the reasoning was that it has more natural hormones in the lower branches. Whatever the reasoning was I bealived it and has worked great for me. just stick with it and you will get it.

BTW nice grows in this thread.

what would be the best way to propagate a in full bloom cutting?

Thanks for the kind words man!

How full? Like the plant showed sex 2 weeks ago and you hadn't gotten to it full? Or a this plant is done soon and I need a cutting full?

In the 1st case, clone as normal. In the latter, it might be easier to reveg - esp. with the cloning conundrum.

Yeah I was gonna comment on rooting a flowering cut the other day but my phone sucks ass for anything web related.

I tried rooting flowering cuts in my bubble cloner just to see if I could do it. Took 10 cuts off a plant I had flowering outdoors. Took almost 3 weeks and only one grew roots. I think I just revegged the cutting to be honest as it sat until 24hr light like all my clones do.

I like wild's idea of revegging her when your done.

Great pics as always :tiphat: ...now back to lurking...

life is kickin my butt

life is kickin my butt

Hey brothers! I need more pucks for the aero cloner.

The Jack Diesel - HOLY SHIT. Fucking winning pheno to the max - the smoke description online made me super excited "makes you want to get stuff done" :D

Soooo I might have had pollination AGAIN... I got a good amount of seeds between all the plants from last run - still more showing up - but id say its a seed per ounce maybe 2 while few buds have tons of tiny tiny ass black seeds. Fucking sucks...

Lots of orange hairs in one part of the room - but also where all the early 8 weekers are... Dunno if their just ripening or pollinated - and definitely not nute burnt to that degree - anymore :)

I'm really going to be pissed if their seeds because I can't find any nanners ANYWHERE! sigh... I think it might be Jack33 being an insane plant - absolutely insane. but if they are seeded - you can count of a FATTY BHO run

MORE BAD NEWS. The vintage 2006 is a totally different and MUCH better plant she is already turning purple on week 6... that first plant was a runt from seed that like others - turned into a bad ass once in clone form. FUCK... i used both mothers and have no cuts...

hence the need for new aero cloner pucks or neoprene inserts to be precise. Shes in full bloom ready for overdrive!

The smoke on the 1st vintage is good - awesome skunky-ass smell and super earthy long lasting taste but the stone doesn't last. I bet ya'll money shes going to be legendary - i'm once again reveging her since the first batch of clones which are now flowering - were flowering hahaha sigh...

And that jack diesel well I want hta shit - wait till the pictures later... idk how im getting this lucky - The jack33 - vintage 06 and Jack Diesel were all gifts from a friend lol

We'll see what the vintage has in store and I think the Jack33 is a fucking hulk marijuana plant.

I decided to flush jackie till week 13 nov 27th. At that time I will scope and determine if she is ripe. If not - another week - but after that shes down but honestly everyone - I think I have myself a very dom sativa that is rare for this cross.

Well between the nanner scare - ********I'll be dissecting a portion of the blackwater og to determine if seeds are being produced or if its just signs of maturity. Shes a 9 weeker that I'm taking to 10 and is on week 6. Idk I have had seed scares every grow :( dissection scheduled next week thursday.

The jack33 fiasco - the remaining NTOG/BWOG seeds I popped all failed - but because I failed. I wasn't clean enough - I think - and I just don't have the proper establishment... yet!

The upgrades - BTW the USHIO bulbs run WAY HOTTER than those cheap Apollo Horticulture Bulbs. My room went from average 73-77 to now 77-82... Nothing but new bulbs... Good news or bad - I still need a new A/C and this is great incentive to motivate that upgrade - which will happen soon.

ScxSSSDH #6 getting jarred tmrw.

Everything curing is still curing - only a few plants/phenos are cured.

Best smoke from last grow - SLHxMM #1 - I can't WAIT to multiply this plant.

OF course I'm babbling WAY too much and if anyone read this far - its cause your fucking awesome and a bad ass mother fucker who loves weed like me so I gotchu with some porn tmrw with of course more babbling :moon:

Fuckin bazillion tiny seeds! I hate that shit. Found a tip in NWT like that. Hard to tell where those come from. I suspect a nanner in that bud, deep down inside, holding most of the pollen in. A few grains get out and that's why theres only a seed or 2 here and there. Just my current theory.

A friends JH was a sweet pissy sativa all the way. Long running, super stretcher - too bad he cut at 10 weeks. So that and diesel? Mmm-mm!

In a way, I hope you do find a problem in the 8 week corner. Then youll have an area to focus on, to rectify.

Bro, can you tune me in on the structure, frostiness and whatnot of that SLH x MM #1? Is she a pissy one or not? Etc.

This awesome, bad ass, weed loving mother fucker wants some porn!

Lighting BTU = 2x400W = 800w x4 = 3200 aircooled /2 = 1600BTU
Room BTU 5x5x40= 1000

If a 5000BTU AC is not cooling this grow there is a problem somewhere.
Do you have leaks in your ducts? It seems like your cool air is being sucked out.
Is the air being shared with the tents?

Nah The 1/2 seeds per zip are ready to pop now. The tiny ass ones are around the whole lot but only in a some buds... like right now im smoking the jack33 an early sample - shit is super sativa man - coffee replacement! Anyways - zero tiny black seeds.... ZE FOOK WEED!!!! :tumbleweed:

Yeah I hope my problem is I'm a newb still who tripps out when plants mature or maybe I'm right... idk the hairs are turning orange from the middle/base out to the tip... and some are dark - not light/dead - I think I got fucked - next week will b the verdict

Bro, can you tune me in on the structure, frostiness and whatnot of that SLH x MM #1? Is she a pissy one or not? Etc.

The album has all the pictures I ever took brother. Honestly I'm going to get back to you - but once I can focus on this strain - #1 has turned into something really special - its the best thing I grew - just not enough!!! Right now its the most delicious tasting weed - I think potency still requires a little bit more cure time and the smell has finalized on a sweet wiff real quickly turning into a STRONG sour skunky funk that really when all tied together smells just like cat litter or the litter box when your around it. Confirmed by others. The frost is haze like - chubby mushroom trichs that GLEAM - when I got the time man - i'll give it more focus. I got atleast 3 grams of each left :tiphat:

This awesome, bad ass, weed loving mother fucker wants some porn!

That...all that.

And how da fuk is a FATTY BHO run a bad thing? lol...wtf

Wasn't the plan and I want the get the BWOG dialed in and the Vintage will be super badass as long as its not seeded. But I think since the Bracts on the Vintage are turning purple already shes maturing at the proper time and she probably will be ready next week hahah but shes going 9/10 weeks :D

Ima lil faded but maybe larger container woulod help? Alot of good strains out there right now...but when they get root bound they start stressin' fierce.

9x9x9 Hydrofarm Square containers - plenty of room - more like newbie trip out or actual pollination - I'm usually right the first time - meaning pollination has occurred.

See...all this lurkin' is good for something

Thanks!

I do need ot redo the ducting and shit - but flat out brother - These bulbs are running hotter than the Apollo - maybe because their new and actually good haha But after the Thermoflo elbows/ducting is up with its proper positioning with straight tubes and all - im sure things will shape up. Also got a new Filter and Fan :D

My closet is part of my bedroom and the Window A/C cools the lot. I need to upgrade to a portable A/C for more cooling - convenience and cause I need a new A/C.

Day 83 Week 12

Thats Jacki in the back there - she looks like shes hurting... GRRRR

Don't mind the NTOG in the front.

Heres her baby - Day 39 Week 6 - And the website says this shit is a 7 week strain... Is this some alien weed? lol

picture.php


So yeah 6 days maybe she'll get the chop. I don't want to keep her but I want to keep her - ya know? After the cure I'll figure out what shes worth specially since that other plant will be around week 10/11 same as right now giving me great indication to the structure/blooming phase.

Day 39 Week 6

Good Pheno #2 is. She looks like she will pack on way more weight than the seed plant who also was flowered reverted to veg and then flowered again so maybe that fucked things up but this one is stellar - I like the stretch that is constant throughout bloom its real minimal but you can tell this plant grows alot if you don't stare at it every day.


Reusing hte picture from before cause its for the NT OG originally.

HOLY SHIT the smoke on this is DELICIOUS. Its sooooo sweet. Its like honey with grape accents... I love this plant and hence the reason I'm upset about the possible pollination.

The mendo purps comes out in the smell and flavour of this bud. It also has a really nice balanced indica leaning potency. Good evening/bed smoke but could be an anytime smoke if you are a indica person.

Been saving best for last :D

I really hope these clones root - and I think this plant is a little too big to reveg... i'll get a full shot up later.

I hope this isn't a hard let it go lesson to learn :cry:

Like everything Day 39 week 6 in the pictures.

I hate those bulbs, ushio run way hotter. I ran them next to hortilux an everything was leaning to the horti's.

I like the way those Jacks have blown up - colas that stretch from wrist to elbow.

You might have to put that plant in a bigger pot to reveg, give the roots a bit more room. Just make sure you leave the bottom most part of the plant with leaves and you can chop the rest as you normally do. Id leave any tiny, wispy budlets behind too. (Some people have successfully cloned from buds.) Maybe give it a flush with 1/2 strength veg nutes.

This message has been brought to you by my ass - Im talking out it. That's how Id go about it if I had the need to reveg.
