Thanks man! I have a really good feeling about these. Chill-OM is going to be a great smoke. <fingers crossed>

Transplanted my Chills today and moving into flower this week. How are your girls doing?

Yours are looking great Yankee.

I went on vacation last week and nearly killed mine. My hempy buckets have been lasting about 4 days between feedings and I ended up being gone 6 (1 day longer than planned). When I came back, they were really droopy and the big fan leaves had started yellowing severely. They're bouncing back nicely although I'm going to have to amputate some fan leaf branches I think. I'll take pics and post later this week. The buds are developing nicely. I think this is going to be a big producer! Hopefully I didn't hermie them.

I'm sure they'll bounce back just fine. Wouldn't be the first plants to face a drought!

Just flipped mine yesterday so now it's a waiting game to see if there are any girls in the bunch.

All right, we're far enough along for some bud porn. Still about a month before harvest according to Mandala.

Oh, yeah now you in da shit! How tall they getting?

The taller one stopped stretching at about 50" and the shorter one at about 38". At this point the shorter one is visibly more frosty.

On a completely unrelated note, I picked up a couple bottles of this nasty wine the other day for about $8.50 each. The bottles look cool and just screamed "BONG" to me.



Parts are on order.

hey dude no more plant pics?

What, you didn't like the baby bud pics???

I'll take a shot of the full plants tomorrow during lights on. Most of the fan leaves died off when they ran out of water/nutes. The rest of the plant is healthy though. Probably 10-12 days or so until the harvest give or take. These are some stinky plants now!!!

Took a few pics this morning. The trichs are not amber but clear. Just a crummy camera.



I'm still sticking with the same feeding regimen. I probably should have upped it a bit when I starved the plants, but wanted to see how it would turn out keeping it as simple as possible throughout the grow. It's a pretty foolproof method, although I almost pooched it by letting the hempys run dry.

Edit - I can't figure out how to remove that thumbnail. Just ignore it.

Glad to hear you're in the home stretch! Cola in the 2nd pic is lookin sweet. They'll continue to fill in and well til harvest.

Nice job!

Have u been using molasses?

Thx man. The 2nd pic is the tall one. It's hard to tell from the pics, but the short one has a lot more trichomes. It didn't get hit as hard as the tall one when they ran out of food though.


Madscientist - No, I haven't been using anything other than the Jack's Pro Hydroponic regimen. 1/2tsp per gallon each.

oops my bad dude, must have been baked and missed em.. looking great! Looks very heathy still , btw to get rid of thumbnail, go into edit ,advanced , manage attachments ,find the thumbnail at the bottem and click the top of it to x it and then click ok..

OOps, I was off on my date duration calculation. I have 10-12 days from today probably. I was really getting excited about harvesting these and may have to sample some popcorn soon.

I drilled the Bottaro bottle out the other day and put the bong together. The really cool thing is that I didn't even need an o-ring. The 18mm - 18mm downstem fits perfectly in the hole. It fits so well that water won't leak if I tip the bong the other direction. I'm sure it's delicate that way, but at $8.50 a bottle, I can keep a few spares on hand for if they break.

Anyway, here's the completed bong. It hits like a champ!!!!



Edit - I'm thinking of painting a light layer of Cyanoacrylate around the drilled hole to help prevent cracking/damage. Anybody have any reason not to?

Nice work! I saw a DIY project a while back with these bottles and they seem well suited to the purpose. Where did you source the bottle/wine?

Wine is probably a liberal use of that word. It's pretty putrid stuff. But the bottles can be purchased at Sams Club and I've seen them at liquor stores before too.
