Hi everyone!!!

A while back I had posted a pic of my mini clones... and someone gave me +rep and wondered about the progress... Well, thanks for the interest, sorry for not keeping it up here (I do have a journal going, see sig), and well here is an update.....

As we get into week 5 of flowering, the ladies all look very healthy (to me)...

Leaves are dark green, a few lighter ones and a few spots here and there, but so far, no major "OH SHIT"s...

The tallest one was just measured (as in, I stopped writing to go measure) 5 inches high by 12 inches wide...

And the shortest on was measured at 3 inches high by 9 inches wide...

Well, they say a picture is worth a thousand words... but I cannot upload any pics at the moment, the site is just way too slow...

Sorry, but for now you will have to visit the journal... page 15 has the latest pictures...

Hope you enjoy it...

Ah! maybe I can put a few in...



Cheers...

Hey there Gyspy, Nice photos. What kind of camera did you use? That last photo is clearer than anything my camera could ever put out. Mine is a 7.0 pixel Kodak Digital camera.

Hey LDB...!!!! Thanks...!!!
I use a point and shoot olympus camera.... 10 megapixels....

Well, I actually took a macro photo, downloaded it to my computer.... then I zoomed in until I could see the pixels (squares that make up the image) and backed off a bit.... then I used a feature on my computer that allows me to take a picture of whatever is in the desktop at the moment...

So in fact what you see is a picture of a zoomed in picture.... hummmm does that make any sense????

I am pretty sure you could do very similar, maybe a little smaller, but deff, reasonable shots with 7 MP...

Oh and by the way... them shitty buds of yours...:o they look fantastic my Bru!!!...keep up the good work....:weed:

Cheers ...

read the whole thread..waste of time and energy
I totally agree, OldBongWater.
Also, the only reason he took the cuttings in the second week of flowering stage was to find out which plants were female first. Plus his plants look like crap. And it looks like he copied those photos from another site. Notice what the photos say in the bottom right corner? If they were his photos they would not say that. But maybe he put them in his gallery and then the admins added the Award. But I doubt it, seeing as they have had so much trouble with that guy.
Also, I am not growing for Yield per plant, I am working for Yield per square foot of grow table, with minimal leaf and foliage that has to be manicured.

Dude if u ever learn how to grow come talk to me. You can't grow shit.
ROFLOL!!!
I thought people just said that shit to me because I really have trouble growing. Now that I see them say it to you it makes me feel better about my unskilled ways...lol
All I can say is when someone says something like that again, just ignore them, they are making themselves look dumb enuff. U have already proved yourself around here...

In my opinion, and I've tried both, several times;
- topping does make you get more colas, but they all share the same size, all groth to the main cola diverts to branch development. Also there is at least a week of recovery from the topping, done a week before 12/12
-LST supercropping works much better in my opinion. It's not as tricky as most say. A week before flowering, and during the stretch period, give the main stems a little pinch, until you feel a slight crunch, this will keep them from stretching, and buds will form together to make a large cola. You can also supercrop the branches if you dont want them to stretch. (I grew Mango, one of the streatchiest strains, bred for outdoors)

With a simple pinch to the main shoot in week 1, you will develop more branch growth and get similar results to topping.
(FIM is included in the High Stress type topping method I describe)

What I have developed from past tests, is (depending on strain) a rather agressive supercropping method, I supercrop 3 times, 1 week before and through week 1 and 2. It reduces lanky branches and makes buds form quicker because it isn't focusing on branch growth. I pinch right below where I want the cola to form, usually 4/5 nodes from the top.

I continue with manicuring the weak looking branches, and any inner growth that isn't going to get light and turn out to be just a little nug. I continue to do this through the entire bloom period, but most is done 2 weeks before bloom (clones) and during week 1, and 2.

I will have all this in pics and whatnot over the next few months.

I would have to see that with photos or something . But I would love to get the info mr. marks if you have the time ?? The reading of your post leaves alot of imagination ??

Yeah, I don't pick sides on the topic but prefer to supercrop, I'm going to record my method in my journal. Right now they're just seedlings, so it'll be a couple months.

Sorry for the plug LDB:D

What did you peak you feeding at?
