Thanks those were the only two pics out of like 15 that came out not blurry haha.Great job! I love those last two pics there, very pretty!
Thanks bro, ya the timer deal really freaked me out, my girl was soooooo worried she was talking about me getting rid of the clone box and the clone and everything. I was like HELL NAW just gotta invest in a better timer for the big light.Grow came out good bro. I'm sure next time will be sweet, you seem to have a green thumb!
On the timer make sure you get a higher amperage one. They cost more but...well you know. Get a 15 amp or more and you should have no worries man.
Nice harvest!
Thanks DST its kinda sad I couldn't bring her to full ripeness but I also know what to expect next grow. I'm deffinately planning on extending the use of veg nutrients during flowering. She just ate up the nitrogen as soon as I stopped giving it to her she did nothing but yellow and really fast at that. The clone is also gonna have a bunch more main branches and a bunch more smaller branchs. All in all she is gonna be bigger. I'm gonna manage my canopy a bit better this time as well utlizing LST much more than last time. I learned all this through the previous grow so I'm not to down on harvesting early. Shit I'll be smoking dank in about a week and a half. I'm perfectly happyCongrats Green, big Congrats, those buds look like my beard after a week of not trimming, crazy
.Gonna be some nice
. Also looking forward to your next journey.

Thanks bro
I'm excited to smoke it I can't wait. The buds already have shrunk quite a bit. The smaller ones of course faster. Man I was looking at my pics and damn the clone has exploded in just a week I'll go snap some pics of her and throw 'em up.

Aight guys here she is at day 40 of veg. Gonna go a week and a half longer maybe the full two weeks. Repot her in the big pot and then its in the tent she goes under the HPS. Such a big difference in just a week of growth.

That don't sound good dude, main things is though you noticed it before it really caused some strife.I know it was unexpected for them to come in this week :/ but I gotta do what I gotta do. I'm glad I got this far unirupted. Accutally when I was pulling my equipment down my timer for my light and inline fan was melted to the plug and was turning brown. I was pretty freaked out by that. I'm lucky it didn't start a fire. Next time I'm investing in a heavy duty timer for the light. I don't need a fire to start over weed I'll be done for.
Why is the inline on a timer? Shouldn't it be on 24/7? Or do have a separate exhaust?

I have two exhaust fans remember
. The inline fan is the light exhaust and the stanely blower was on my carbon filter. I had the stanely fan on 24/7 and the inline on the same timer as the light to only come on when the light was on. Apprently I overloaded the timer, I'm very lucky it didn't get to much further or I don't know what I woulda done. When I visit the hydro store in about two weeks, I'll make sure to ask for a timer that can handle a 1000w light just to make sure. I'll have the light and fan hooked up to it next grow and I want to make certain I don't run into any problems. Also getting a new carbon filter for the next grow. My current one is very dirty and I believe its not doing anything. I need to get a new hps bulb as well. In december it will mark the 1 year mark for the bulb. Soo many things to do sooooo little time haha.

Bummer about the timer deal, SHit like that makes me nervous. Whenever I set soemthing up, i rarely leave it alone for for a few days just so I can make sure of all these things. Shits a little scary, glad you caught it. I probably wouldn't tell my wife I almost burned our house down though! Can't wait for the smoke report.
That clone is looking damn good. Its amazing how fast they grow once they get to a certain point! Right on GFK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Trust me I do the same thing wonder. This must of started happening after everything was cool with everything. When I first set things up I'm in there all the time just making sure I can't make it better in anyway. I'm guessing during those hot august and september months it just got to the cheap timer. It was a 5.99 timer from walmart and was a brinks timer. Its all I've ever used so I wasn't worried about it. The box says they are rated up to 1650 watts. I deffinately wasn't pulling that many watts I guess it was just cheaply made. Hopefully the hydro store has a more reliable one. She is getting transplanted into the big pot next sunday morning. I'll need to get her used to the hps light so I'll veg her for a couple more days after transplanting and then flip the switch on her. My girls seedling is doing quite well just still in that small slow growing phase. Its already in a 3 gallon grow bag as well. Gonna top it tuesday permitted she has grown enough for me top her. She is gonna stay in the grow bag and I'm not gonna LST her either. She will go into flower about a week and a half after topping, she will just be taking up the left over space in the tent for extra bud. Anyways I'm off to work guys.

glad somebody thinks similarly to me. My wife thinks im crazy when i refuse to leave the house more than a few minutes, in thee times. It takes time. Im about ready to go empty my grow room out and sterilize everything, change top soil etc. First I need to spray the soil to run the bugs into their little corners, I such a fucking project going. I live in a condo. I have built a framework into the bedroom for the light. I also built a 4X4 tent, with the clone area on top. Way to much shit, There is no room for improvement. Just cleanliness. top it off my wife keeps all her clothes in the closet of the bedroom.......... Fuck............

Haha I hear ya. I don't like leaving the house either cause when I do the only thing thats on my mind is the plant and whats going on and shit. You sound like your pretty packed out. I had to do a lot of talking to be able to use the closet for a grow room haha. I hate bugs dude I'd be freaking out the whole way. I'm glad I got rid of them when I did. I'm already gonna take some preventive measures as soon as I transplant my clone into the big pot she is getting the layer of sand on top. Anyways I'm gonna go check her out now.

Hahaha, see I had stopped smoking for like 2 years and meet my girl, she was the one who turned me back onto to smoking. And accutally she was the one who introduced me into nugs. She won't be taking it away from me now especially now that I produce nugs for her hahaha.

Nice I just made a little change to my grow room. I have an extension cord running up the stairs because I have all the circuits full upstairs. Rather than put my timer in a deep dark corner, I put it on the extenision cord and mounted it to a 2X4 that is part of my framework. I will be able to notice if it burns. I would hate to burn down my house..........

Aight heres a couple shots of the buds burping. I leave them in the jar for about 12 hours a day and then burp for about 1-2 hours and jar back up. Got a nice even dry through out all the buds. Final weight is 70 grams dry. Not to big but I'm stoked about it. This bud will put you out. Anyways heres the pics.
I'll take some pics of the clone and the seedling tonight. Both have just taken off I cant't believe it. Flipping 12/12 on sunday. Repotting the clone saturday after I get off work.
