Pics of my garden: SSD, KM, BG, BL, T, Flo, RD

Here are a few pics of my flower room, I've got a couple of plants in various stages of flower and some just in 12/12 for a week.

.

This is from one end, the garden is 8' x 3' ID. It's made of 2" x 4" framing with Reflectix for reflection. Each side has 2 four foot panels of Reflectix that can be rolled up and tied so I can get to any spot in the garden quick and easy. The ends roll up as well.



.

From the other end, behind the 3 Kali Mist clones in my Aqua Mist.



.

This is the light rail and fan ducting.



.

Two Kali Mist plants, the smaller cola in front is part of a 4 cola in Pro Mix, the larger cola with the pop bottle in back a single cola in DWC.



.

The two Kali Mist together outside the cage. The 4 cola was vegged in promix to 14" and ended up 38". Very dense buds. The single cola is the DWC, fluffy buds but crusty with trichs, from 5" in veg to 47". On the 4 cola plant, the stem in the middle - you can see the dark green bamboo stick I used as a splint. The colas are dense and heavy and two of the stems almost snapped.



.

A Bubblegum (left) and a Red Diesel in my Aquamist. The Red Diesel is the clone that I treated with Reverse the first two weeks of 12/12 to prevent hermieing. The mother and another clone hermied excessively.



.

My air filter contraption.



.

A Bubblegum Clone I'm vegging, and a Bubblegum that's been flowering 10 weeks (wrapped in Reflectix). It was a poor clone and I didn't want to waste a spot in my Aquamist so I put it in a 2 liter pop bottle with some fertilized water I had left over. I forgot about it and was amazed when it started producing buds. I've only changed the water twice, it has no air added to the water. Stress test.



.

My Aquamist and Nutridip tri meter. The white fencing is PVC, makes life easier.



.

3 Kali Mist in the back right (from 1 1/2" - 3" in veg to 30", 32" and 33"). The tall spear on the left is Taiga, Big Laughing in front of the Taiga.



.

A Flo clone in RDWC.



.

Flo in Pro Mix, double topped and the branches bent, wrapped around the rim of the bucket, and fastened with twist ties through holes drilled every 2" in the top of the bucket.



.

Taiga (left) and Big Laughing. The Taiga is an autoflower (Power Plant cross) and ended up 33". The Big Laughing has a consistant stretch of 50%, it's 24". To the right is a Super Strawberry Diesel 4 cola that I'm growing horizontal.



.

4 SSD, 1 Flo and 1 Kali Mist being trained for my version of a screenless scrog.



.

A Kali Mist clone I'm training. I put it into flower at 12" but it didn't stretch at all, formed a top bud right away. I'm putting it back in 24/0 until it grows a few inches.



.

My veg room, not much to look but it works. A few clones laying around ... no room in the flower garden. The tall 4 stem in the back is a Kali Mist male I kept in case I wanted to breed.

I love the work Dirtyboy, it's a great hobby. I was amazed to learn that there is more money spent on gardening than any other hobby. There are a lot of things I hate doing in the garden, picking bananas being the worst.

Here're a few more pics, the Super Strawberry Diesel and Kali Mist growing with the stems wrapped around the buckets are filling out nicely, starting to branch up.

Big Laughing on the left end, Taiga next to it. The Big Laughing's pistols haven't changed color yet but the Taiga's tricomes are turning cloudy, another week or two till harvest. Behind are 3 Kali Mist clones in the Aqua Mist and the four cola Kali Mist in pro mix to the right.



.

All four stems had to be splinted with bamboo on the pro mix Kali Mist, they were almost snapping. The colas on this plant are suprisingly dense - the big KM single cola behind has very loose buds.



.

I nailed up a couple of 2x4s as runners on my cage and cut some plywood to fit the cages width (36") and be two feet wide. I've got 4 sections of shelving that I can put in as I need more space. Free's up a lot of buckets that were being used as stands. The 6 plants on the platform are all being growing with their stems wrapped around the buckets - screenless scrog.



.

The Kali Mist single cola giant to the left, and a Super Strawberry Diesel clone (33") that I'm going to transplant to soil and grow screenless scrog. The KM is the crustiest plant I've grown, the trichome stems are woven like a mat. It looks like a cola would snap if bent.



.

A good view of the 36" KM clone in hydro - in the back left. The Super Strawberry Diesel 33" clone to the right, just going into flower.



.

Training a SSD clone (32") to wrap around a bucket lid while still in the Aqua Mist. Using the lid as a template keeps the stem from getting creases or from snapping. I'm going to plant it in the same pro mix bucket as the SSD 33" clone in the two pictures above.




.

Top view of a SSD that was double topped, then all four stems wrapped around the bucket.



.

Top view of another SSD, the bud sites are coming out with some branches up to 8". The cool thing about double topping and bending the stems is how much plant you can get in a 1' cube. This plant was vegged to 16" and stretched to 18", so with 4 colas I've got 64" of stem in a 1' diameter circle. The branches aren't going to grow up more than a foot and every branch gets the same light as a top cola.



.

This bucket has both a Flo clone and a Kali Mist clone. They weren't very big so I put them in the same pot to see how it will turn out. The Flo stem is wrapped around a 6" mesh pot to keep the stem from cracking as it is trained.



.

I germed 12 seeds a week ago and got 14 plants. Two of Subcool's beans - Pandora's Box and Jack The Ripper - had seeds that ended up with 2 shoots.



.

These are the two double shoot plants. One looks like it'll make it for sure, the other one looks healthy but tiny.

Serious, I've got his Bubblegum too. Fantastic stable plants, easy to grow, good yields, potent, taste great. I love these strains, the guy can breed and produce great seeds.

A few more pics from last week. This SSD is starting to look like a wreath, dozens of bud sites that should become small colas. Fairly dense buds so far.



.

This 5 gallon bucket has a 14" Kali Mist in the back, a 5 stem Bubblegum with little leaves in front, and a legnth of Flo sticking up in the middle (I broke the stem bending it, the top 2/3 died). A grab bag of bud. I started the KM in 12/12 4 weeks before the Bubblegum and Flo so they should finish closer together.



.

I picked up some hanging camp driers for bud, $6 CAD instead of $20 at a grow shop.



.

My 24" Big Lauging. It's starting to fill out, 2 or 3 more weeks. Should be 2-3 oz, very big dense buds. I've pulled the cola buds away from the stem to keep them from getting moldy. Bit of air flow.



.

The 3 Kali Mist clones from the Aqua Mist pictures from last week. 5 gallon DWC.



.

I think this SSD will be a sativa pheno, branches up to 12" and sparce buds.



.

This one is a middle of the road pheno, buds to about 5" and more filled out.



.
The indica end of the spectrum. Small buds so far (1" - 3") bud very dense.



.

This is whats left of the Taiga. The top cola ripened before the bottom even though the plant was only 33".

Good thanks. :)

I was able to share some Kali Mist with a friend today. He got me into smoking bud about 8 years ago and was my only connection to any dealers, kept me in smoke for years. It's nice to be able to give back some.

mmmmm nice, good karma is all it's about.

How was the kali mist? I've heard lots of great things about it, especially it's the best sativa around.

I don't know if it's the best sativa as many claim but is it fantastic. Slight spicy taste, smooth on the throat and lungs. You hardly notice the high coming on, very gradual but not a long creeper. 5-10 minutes. Floaty and euphoric, carefree, no ceiling high. Fantastic social or all day high. Not a knock out like JTR or AK47 but it has a place in the garden. Really doesn't take me any more time to finish than Big Laughing by Dr Greenthumb, which is suppose to be a 9 week strain. 14 weeks 12/12 until starting the snipping.

hrm sounds like a strain I should try. I love me some sativa soaring highs.

Strawberry Cough and Sour Diesel are some of the best sativas I've tried yet.
