Nice. I like the random pattern of the scrog, reminds me of that game you play with a string...cat's cradle is it?

it's been awhile since I did an update.. so lazy this year with the growing.. but the scrog is looking good

1st scrog grow.. bubba kush.. 5 stem scrog from a 2012 revegged mother she's filling in nicely.. not even a preflower yet..

gave her some more nutes this eve.. (brown stuff is the dried up buds from the reveg ) it's not too thick so not worried about mold here with the dry heat avg 100


orig date 6-25-13

the mess of them
grapefruit (the yellowish ones) had a bad mag def and appear to be recovering slower then expected..

whoa sorry to hear gioua. I know grapefruit to be a mag hog so I always used calmag+ but without it I know it's an uphill battle. good luck and the rest of your garden looks beautiful!

beautiful plants g.........have you ever tried smart pots? you might think about picking some up for next season, most of your plants look like they could use bigger pots...........I use 100gl smart pots..........less stress on plants in bigger pots.....I don't mean to criticize, just a suggestion, if I may.......nice job

have tried them in the 2011 grow on a few plants.. I couldn't see the value to buying them vs the tubs (I'm a cheap SOB!!)

this year was more of a test of the various types of grow and harvest results did 3-4 different styles this year comparing to last year where they grew tall and little training done on them.. I was so not into growing this year and so far have learned I like the scrog the most as it seems to be the best looking and will yield a bit more then my supercropped one

I am just not into the grow this much as I was year 1-2 last year I was losing interest started to become a chore more then a enjoyment but I have to chug along since I am not paying for this stuff.. and need it to get thru the day..

any suggestion on the grapefruits? should I add anything else been giving epsom salt every week.. after a 2 week flush.. they are not even in flower (sat dom)

Try giving them a good shot of Maxsea & keep up with the Epsom salts.......I love the smart pots for outside.........
