well first i tried making a "bubble cloner" but light was getting in and causing algea to grow and bringing my ph levels too high so I took em out and just put them on a bed of hydroton with some water in the bottom of a tuperware (water with a few drips of superthrive) also misting once a day now...(water with a few drips of super thrive) and keeping plastic wrap over the tupperware with a slit in it to allow some air to get in at this point...but yea just made my cuts and went right into water with them then took them out cut my 45 and right into the clonex gel to the rockwool, which was soaked in ph 5.5 water with superthrive overnight...

thanks guys for the input...i was seriously hoping the yellowing was normal.....maybe its just taking longer in this case....i pulled apart a few to look and from what I saw...where the clonex gel was applied the stalk appears almost "cauliflower like"....

Sounds like roots are trying to grow. maybe some more hormone but some are just tough. I'm learning to just toss the weak ones and allowing the strong ones to take over. But if it were my only ones I'd be doing everything I could

I've heard those good things myself.

Yeah man stick around. I'm always looking for advice.


In fact... I've been kind of worried about my Papaya


They just keep putting out flowers now into week 8 past sexing. I've had them on 18/6 for about 6 weeks now and they're still budding up. But I think there is some new green growth. I'm afraid if I put them outside right now they would finish out prematurely. Guess I'll watch them for a bit more.





Everything else made the transition alright.


Dairy Queen


Jack The Ripper


Violator Kush


Some of these clones aren't going to make it. I was out of rapid rooters and put them straight in ffof. Some are showing promise though.




Thanks for taking the time to visit



I've got to go.........tons of things to do and we didn't even go outside

better get my house in order before veer union gets here

rock on

papaya is a really REALLY heavy strain... when I grew that stuff I remember it just packing on new pistols up to the day I harvested...I harvested a little early(mostly milky, little to no amber) I will say. I never flowered then revegged them so I dunno...but its no surprise that they are still trying to pack it on even at this point. My guess is that it may take a bit longer for those girls to mellow out. personally I think your probably right...putting them outside now may not be a good idea...Even if they are the last to go outside...once they kick in during the flowering time they will pack on some serious wieght....seriously fast. still to this day papaya is the best smoke I've ever had.

Looking good Slab, anxiously awaiting the first week of May.

Damn Slab those are some promising sites in the back 40 there. You also got the great clone wall along the fence. Too bad you cant grow them there and vertical LST them into the cyclone fence, lol.

I had a couple of clones that premed on me last year. I just seeded one of them.

I have been busy with work and of course Taxes but I will get busy with seed popping theis weekend I promise.

ps. glad you found the pond for syphoning water. We aint getting any younger brother

Another grow with great pics..You gonna do another outdoor this year slab? Scribed.

Damn good information there volcom. She is certainly intent on taking care of business. I say she but really all four of them and the clones are still flowing too. Just plain wants to bud up. I'd heard lots of good things about Papaya/Mango and can't wait for smoke reporting.

Thanks NeL, I consider that some pretty high praise. I only wish I could have half of your success. Or half of your sunshine mix... Thanks for the visit.

You can say that again. I already got my refund in the bank so not worrying 'bout that. ha
LOL on the cyclone LST. I'd have to go all the way around the yard. hehehe Yep some pretty promising looking spots this year. The pond should help my poor old shoulder pain. I've got to put my drip line list together for that. I'll have about 15' of head so looking promising. I might even bury some 1" pvc from the pond to a mixing trough if I could figure out how to keep it primed.

Hey thanks tat, yeah outdoors again. Already picking off ticks and it's just April. ha I'd like to do a few inside though just to see how it is. We'll see.


I forgot to show my CinJack yesterday. This gal is skunky stinky Pheuwee. ha



She is about in the light again but I'm going to pull some more clones instead of raising the lights. She clones so easily I've got an army of them. Thanks GT








and another Jack The Ripper I didn't show.




one batch of the clones today


Outside count is at 100 now. Sprayed them all with Neem and fed everyone this morning before dawn.

I'll be needing more supplies so bracing myself for a trip to the big shitty. grrrr


Ha, well it's not as big anymore as it was.

I finally found a great outdoor spot for my first guerrilla grow today, its got access to 2 streams and it get tons of light and the soil looks really good to. It's got room for hundreds of plants scattered across about a mile area and there was no sign that anybody had been there in years. There were a TON of ticks out there though, I must have picked off at least 20 just on my pants and thats after a full body/clothes spray down of off deep woods . I also have fairly easy access to the location from an old farm road. I am super pumped, It should be a fun summer!

Oh one more thing, those Auto's I had just told you I had planted a few days ago, a freaking mouse ate all the sprouts. The fucker ate like 30 seedlings in one night.

Damn Nick, good news bad news. The grow spot sounds ideal. Those are hard to find. No cows even? Hot damn

Sucks about the seedlings. I absolutely hate that. The younger the more vulnerable. That's why I'm hardening mine up before setting out. But even then some will get eaten, trampled, rooted up, or dug up. Count on high losses going guerilla style. Bud worms, termites, hogs, grasshoppers, slugs, deer, and on and on. I wish you lots of success. With all those strains it should be interesting.





You guys want to take a peek outside?



Still got the wall of clones hardening up for their big day.



Security....ha


Some are trying to flower

But I had to move them out. I guess if they don't reveg I'll have some early smoke.



These were culls. Need to get them planted. Dairy Queen, Jack The Ripper, CinJack, Jack'sHigh




The Bubblelicious putting on new growth. Need to get them planted too.




And some Papaya clones getting sunlight now.



I hope everyone elses outdoor garden is coming along < uhum GT? > lol
I'm already looking forward to several outdoor grows besides my own. And some that haven't even got started yet. So if you're doing something let me know. I might not always comment but I like to see how you're doing. And pick up tips and advice along the way.

Thanks for the visit and have a nice jay




As always I've gotta go...........

Looking good Slab, I'd say you got some serious numbers going on now brother. Going to be a bumper harvest this season for sure.

Ypu lucky SLABHEAD dang I want a nice area to do an outdoor grow, is that what your doing or just a start to them babys lined up??

Nice to you're busy as ever!

All the girls look real happy. Some of those look like they'll be 10 footers come fall!

How are the holes coming along?

hey slab, does jack the ripper have multiple pheno's or are they all pretty uniform?

Hey slab its been a while since we heard from you how are things going?

Busy I'm sure.

Hey slab, haven't checked in on your grow in awhile, but those things look beautiful.

Go Cowboys.

Hey thanks for sticking around everyone. Yep, I've been busy busy. nascar, storms, work, planting, nascar, storms. I got in a rush and over fed the indoor. The Violator Kush did not like that. I've got over a 'hunert clones to go. busy busy. Put out the culls into 30 gallon tubs in my swampy spot. I'll try to get some pics of them.








damn, I've been gone so long rollitup has freakin' changed. I'm not sure those pics are right....

I hope you are all enjoying a great Spring. I'll visit when I get caught up.... "I'd put a big hug here but the funnies are gone..."

Peace out fellow earthlings.

Thanks for the update man, keep up the good/hard work
