UPDATE:

FINALLY ........setup is finished!!!! SWEET!!! Last Cab done today, rocks getting broke in as I type.........ready for clones
6 am tomorrow!!!!!!:bigjoint: This is The "Monster" Cab............I always have 1 Cab for BIG GIRLS........lol...........
All other cabs have 8 buckets in them, eventually(when required) having 2 big lights over them. No sense burning watts when you
do not need to, so at first planting of new clones buckets are spaced TIGHT> After the flip, maybe 1 week in, maybe 2, I will space them WIDE,
turn on 2nd light, let em go to town...............

This cab will have 5 plants in it. 4 Super Silver Haze, center bucket has AK47(about frigging time!!!!!:clap:)
A20141007_201957.jpg K's are unknown, so 3 going into the center bucket(all these are from seed) to insure a female in the center.....

The cool little pump I bought worked GREAT tonight! The setup I run is real good, but 1 set of buckets has not been upgraded
to 1" line, double entries, and pump circulated..............that would be experimental Cab 1............lol...............it is a slow ordeal to do
nute changes on that cab. The buckets take so long to equalize and drain with their "stock" setup. I hate it, lol. I also hate waiting on my
cheesy little water pump to do a 200 gallon nute change procedure every Friday! The new little pump is pretty wicked. Like an old waterbed inline "transfer" pump.
Lil sucker lifted 40 gallons of water from my back porch, up my stairs, across the house and into the far Cab WITH EASE...........lol.........took 6 seconds from
plug pump in till full 3/4" stream upstairs............YEAH!!!!! Instead of an hour............it was quick, did not time, but less than 5 minutes for 40 gallons.........
flowed like my damn garden hose off the city water does.................:clap:

The VERY COOL 1/4 thick, 3 inch triangle wedge attachment on the suction side fits down in my res's, lay's flat, pulls the whole
system down to 1/4" level REAL FAST............YES!!!!! Should have got one of these DAY ONE.live n learn!!!

Cab 3 is going to be a CHALLENGE..........lol.........The Super Star Girl I have is just plain insane!!! As I said earlier, I have NEVER seen a plant grow the way this one does.
No clue if she is a "special" pheno or just her breed grows like this. I have my hands full just attempting to grow this thing. I must admit I curious to see what she is capable of
during a proper flower. These are all clones, .....of a clone given to me.........which was given to my friend as a clone..........no clue whence it came from before that.........
My bud has never finished one...........always turned her too large, could not contain her, never had a good flower cycle with it.

I flipped them this morning..................they are 11 inches SQUARE, kid you not.........I think 12 or 13 days in veg from the cloner. They were NOT large cuts,
but small cuts!!!!

I THINK, lol............lol..........lol.........that by flipping them at this stage I have a CHANCE of containment...............AGAIN..I sure hope she produces good smoke,
looking at her in Cab 1 in early flower I would bet ONE NUT on it.....................

Look at her spacing and leaf size. I would bet she is an OLD GIRL........I would bet years old..............bet original Mom was or is a MONSTER.
I am WHACKING them with nutes.........keep lowering the PH and raising the nutes.........NOT ONE SINGLE complaint, burned edge, NOTHING>
1724 PPM 5.3 PH...they suck it up...............can only imagine what PPM I will need in full flower to appease these suckers..................

In Cab 1 the S.S. destroyed her neighbor, the Euphoria. I was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO looking forward to trying Euphoria. She is still alive I find out tonight,
just buried 2 foot down, jammed in a back corner, and has 3 inches of exposed white roots sticking out of the bucket...........I cannot reach her..........lol..............
I might get 1/8 oz of popcorn off her............lol.............

So..............Thought I would giver her revenge, or at least a chance at such! Never was her fault the S.S. drilled her.was mine. She came up FAST,
real fast, but was wimpy n spindly, falling over a lot, lol. I made a slight error in tying her up, and the S.S. got her. Had I put her RIGHT, she would probably
be looking pretty sweet about now in Cab 1.Damn it!! lol.

Anyway, this is Euphoria, she is healthy, NOT skinny, lol, and putting down a good footprint 2 weeks in the pot. I will make sure she has a FAIR chance this time..............

Poor lil White Widows......lol..........They have no chance at a good sun spot! I was too lazy to go into Cab 2(a whole 2 feet away) and swap these two for 2 bigger sisters.
Still can, only flipped them today............but too lazy to do it....................lol...........I WILL regret it later, like the Euphoria incident I'm sure:wall:

Besides, If I do swap them, then Cab 2 which is gonna flip in 2 days, will have the 2 runts in it looking all ghetto and such...........................................:dunce:

Cab 4 is full of Northern Lights, and one guest. They are all looking good, the yellowed and burned leaves are from sloppy job of "bucketing" and nute water
being run all over them. They will die, never to be missed 10 days from now.
Should not smoke while I'm putting cuts in buckets. I forget to "bury" the emitters and test the "spray" pattern before placing them. I have done it
2 times now:wall:

I hate coming from seed sometimes, especially on a strain I have never grown before. Not knowing what she is gonna do is hard for ME to deal with, lol. I am not
comfortable "guessing" on my ladies. I'm hitting them with plenty of light, they want to stretch some. Some early training is gonna be done tomorrow on them, as these
will go to flower, and I want good cuts off all of them PRIOR to the turn. Seed vigor in some strains are incredible, and I'm not gonna repeat Cab 1 anytime soon!

These are run for selection, I have 7 NL's in, hoping to get a good pheno or 2 in here.

The 8th girl is a DinaFem seed. Given to me by a friend. Fem seed, Power Kush. Someone he knows grew it,
swears it is just superb, grows well, yields well, smokes real well.................one can wish right............lol............I can never run a full Cab of anything it seems...........

Investigated Cab 1 tonight. The Train Wreck is doing great, still holding on to the corner she lives in. All of the pic above is her, she is gonna be big
if she fills.

When I unzip the door I'm greeted with this..............I realize these girls, fully neglected since giving up all the cuts I wanted, are going to flower big time!
They were all from cuts, and all were ready to flower.

If they wanna do their thing, well, I might as well help them a bit more...lol...........from never even thinking about flowering the
donor girls, to realizing I can get a pretty crazy personal stash harvest out of this thing if I start to maintain it.............big turn around, lol.

Took a good look inside. Not much I can do about their positioning nor place in the sun. About the only thing I can do is raise the lights 8 more inches....
the damn things are STILL on the stretch, grew 2 inches last 2 days!!! Take hangers n pulley's off, stretch tent fabric, and jam lights up another foot maybe.

Keep em happy in temp, wind, humidity, and of course a good diet!

From a good look tonight(and having a new pump, lol,lolbongsmilie) I took some control over Cab 1 ! LOL!
I drained the Cab with the new pump n cool pickup device..........in RECORD time:clap: Was a pleasure instead of a chore tonight.
Mixed 10 gallons of 1000 PPM water at 5.3 and flushed the buckets with it. Drained that, ran 10 gallons filtered plain PH 5.3 water
through the buckets n rocks. Drained that. Pulled all 8 buckets bone ass dry, res and controller dry too. Fan speed down 40 percent,
temp down 10. I will run them dry for 3-6 days, whatever they can tolerate.....Little fuckers should of behaved...........lol..........


When they have had enough, and surrender, dropping their leaves a bit, I will smack them with 1500 or 1600 PPM water.
They will go berserk, when the "drought" ends.............lol............stupid plants, so easy to fool..........lol............

Genetically gifted plants sure are pretty at this stage at night. With the lights off you can actually see them, and their white hairs about glow.
Some of them have frost on the leaves, some on the leaf stems also. I forgot just how much I enjoy growing these plants!! What a beautiful
creature she is

The runts I almost uncovered tonight............got them a little light anyways...........Little good looking guy.er, Girl down there is Bubble........licious......I'm told.
Whatever she is, even though she was turned small, she appears not to mind. She is getting fat, and loading up on sugar..............and Train Wreck coming up around her.......lol.......
