Blue Cheese, PPP, Thai SS...Jerry's Second Grow

All of these plants are recently rooted clones. Some have been vegging for about a week (LSD, TW) while the sleestack has only been on the veg shelf a couple days.
Trainwreck. LST.


Another TW shot


LSD with some LST


A second LSD with LST.


Sleestack x Skunk. A little droopy (just watered)


Remaining plants in clone room. Black pot is a fresh cut chiesel clone, then left to right is Power Kush (rooted) JTR (not yet rooted) OG18xSkunk (rooted and growing) and a Chiesel (just rooted).



Provided the JTR roots (which I really hope it will...its from the female!) then I'd be at a 100% successful clone rate! Great.

Oh, the LST'd JTR is a confirmed MALE. The first one of the lot unfortunately. A second JTR is starting to show some preflowers, though I suspect they are balls and not calyxes. At least 1 of the 3 is a female!

I assume these are your actual clones?....not your party cup competition?
If so, I was just curious how long you keep them in those cups prior to transplanting. I'm guessing they they next move to the black pots?
I ask because I am using those "party cups" for the first time. Typically, I clone for 2 weeks, transplant...and then move into final growing medium 3 or 4 transplants. I know it's not suggested to transplant so often...I dig handling the 'babies' and noting the root formation in such a short duration.
I'm trying to find that perfect size pot for some nice fat buds at least 20".
:cuss:LOL, dammit!!! Every time I think I've decided upon a new strain to grow, you beat me to it!!!

After much thought, I FINALLY decided I must have the TW and Super Silver Lemon Haze........
I did a mock order only to find that I get a "freebie" SSLH in addition to the initial order.

I just can't seem to embark upon the perfected grow plan. :roll:

A mother plant of.....oh say, a minimum of 10 different strains suits my needs. :eyesmoke:
You know I had to note this.
:twisted:
See what's on the underside of that leaf?......bugs will be the death of me. I've battled them hours on end. Every time I think I've conquered the problem, it amazingly re-appears.

Yes, those are indeed clones of the party cup plants...their rooted tops actually.

This is my first (and last) time using the 16oz cups (I love my 24oz big boys), but the amount of time I usually leave them in small cups is dependent upon my available space. If I have the space I like to put them in black pots as soon as possible.

Last night/this morning I transplanted everything that had rooted in the veg room into the black pots, with a mixture of Light Warrior, Light Mix, Guano, Castings and my new addition granular Mycorrhizae! I even transplanted the recently rooted clones still in the clone chamber, which is unusual for me. I've decided I should limit myself to 8 vegging plants at all times, as that is the number of black pots I can fit in the veg room.

Pictures explain better than words...

The Trainwreck, LSD(s), and SleestackxSkunk are all on the right. The Chiesel clone is far left, the taller OG18xSkunk next to it and the little Power Kush behind the OG18. The back left is a pot I prepared for the JTR clone, whenever it roots.



You should be happy with the TW and SLH. Anything that has won the cannabis cup twice deserves at least one grow...

Regarding the bugs...I don't know what you're seeing on the leaf but there aren't any bugs! It's probably just a black speck of dirt that got on there during the transplant. I actually had a small influx (maybe 4 or 5) of gnats about a month ago, but a yellow sticky trap from the grow store solved that problem pretty quick. I haven't even needed to resort to the sand!

So I got a new fan the other day...a Tjernlund m-6 6" duct booster or something. It moves 530cfm and was $75+shipping on ebay. My cheapo 250 cfm inline duct fan works perfectly for my air cooled hood, but lacks sufficient power to effectively force air through my diy carbon scrubber.

This new fan though is amazing. The fan itself is quiet, however the "whoosh" of air through my 6" flex aluminum duct is not. Not too loud it's going to be a noise issue, but close...

Also received another attitude order...Pineapple Express, Big Buddha Cheese, Super Lemon Haze, Kings Kush and Bubba Kush. I was supposed to get LA Woman as a freebie, but they sent me a powerkush. This is the second time my freebie was replaced with powerkush, and I already had a powerkush before that. I emailed them explaining the situation and Rachel said I could choose an extra 2 UFO's on my next order...so looks like I'll be ordering AGAIN for the March news letter promotion (which will be TGA!)

I snapped a couple shots of the flower room this morning. It gives you an idea of my very limited space...

This one shows the LSD really well in the front.


One without the flash...looks like my glass is getting a little dusty...I'll give that good wipe down later...


Crowded? Maybe a little...and this pic doesn't even show the 7 plants on the shelf...


I tried to get a close up of the main LSD cola in the back...it sort of worked...



That's it. The Blue Widow is nearing harvest...probably has at least another week, maybe 2 if I let it go that long. Only the trichomes will tell, but it will undoubtedly be the first harvested. It is a very fast flowering plant...

Officially trashed the other JTR that was growing balls. Just waiting on the top of the female to root, or else I'll have to take another clone of it, and it's already ~3 weeks into flower. So let's just hope this damn thing roots!

That's all I can think of at the moment. Time to blaze up and off to work! Happy Friday :leaf:

Only shot the big plants. They're where all the action is right now anyway...
LSD


LSD again


Chiesel


More Chiesel...


Chiesel close up. Still has a while to bulk up...


You can really see the purple starting to creep in...love it...


Blue Widow. This plant looks freaking amazing. Much better than the initial go round with it...as always seems to be the case in my garden...


Also getting good and purple. Very frosty. Should be done soonish...


The untopped LSD. This one will beat out the other in yield. LSTing is superior to topping with this plant in particular because you leave the main cola in tact and the secondary growth gets bigger than the secondary growth on the topped plant.


That's all. Short but sweet. :leaf:

Thanks Freddie, glad to have you along. Got a new update coming shortly....

Edit: Oh and by the way, every time I see your avatar I start singing "don't stop me now" in my head! Gotta love Queen!

Warning: This post contains excessive photographs, and should only be viewed while smoking marijuana.

Now that we've got that out of the way...

I took some pictures this morning. I was up at 5:30 and couldn't sleep...seems to happen to me often lately. I get up well before I need to and can't go back to sleep. So I go play with the plants :weed:.

We'll start small...here's a Chiesel a few weeks into flower.


Starting to get a little frosty...


Next, LSD. She's still got a few weeks left in her...


Damn leaves got in the way...but at least I've got nice green leaves this far into flower!


Next, a blurry shot of the big Chiesel. Don't worry, the rest are in focus.


Really starting to turn purple. Love the colors of this strain. Check out the trichomes on the bud in the background too...


No shortage of resin in this girl!


One last shot, because it's just so damn pretty.


Closeup. Last Chiesel pic, I promise...


Next, the JTR female. Got a little stretched, as most of my seed plants tend to. Next round should be loads better (read: shorter, more controlled).


Getting some nice little buds on top though. It's actually beneficial in this case for the plant to be so leggy. There isn't much light penetration, so she finds a way to get through the canopy.


More little JTR buds.



Next, Blue Widow. Creeping towards harvest...I actually just gave her a full-strength feeding yesterday too. To hell with flushing!



No shortage of purple here either...


Over-supercropped branch doing alright I'd say.


Hopefully some of that purple will be visible after she's trimmed, dried and cured. People get all excited when you show them some purple buds...if only they knew color isn't what gets you high...


Here's the trainwreck I LST'd the crap out of. Should have probably flowered her a bit shorter, as she stretched like crazy. Again, this is a plant from seed, so my clones will look way different when they are this age.


Next, the big LSD. Never topped or LST'd, just supercropped. That is going to be one MASSIVE cola...and the little ones look pretty nice too!


I still think this plant will yield the most out of the big 4.


Nice bud...


Next, the neglected PPP. It's only neglected in that it was never repotted and it has to sit in the back under the LSD, where there isn't much light. I promise I do like the plant and the smoke, I'm just on to the next strain(s)...


Still doing it's thing.


Party cup comp plants...Powerkush


Doing much better of late.


OG18xSkunk. Also looking better.


Getting it's first little buds...cute...


SleestackxSkunk. Also doing better. Still sporting the ugly claw though...unfortunately that won't be going away. The rooted top is doing quite well though (no pics of veg today).


From the top...


Finally, a trainwreck a couple weeks into flower. Looking nice!


I touched the stem the other day while moving it around, and the smell was exactly like the trainwreck I smoked not so long ago that inspired me to grow this strain!



So there we have it. There are officially 8 plants in the veg room...2 LSD's, 1 TW, 1 JTR, 1 Chiesel, 1 OG18xSkunk, 1 SleestackxSkunk and 1 Powerkush. I've been getting down and dirty with the lst...the TW is just fucking huge. I'll get some veg pics soon.

Man that Chiesel looks so great, i thought my last plant got really purpe but damn, i think im in love :hump:
The LSD's look great as well, i like how the buds look, Im lookin forward to the TW, one of my fav strains, its just simply a classic in my book, i have some seeds laying around, but havnt got to grow them yet, and idk when i will be haha. the JTR is a lil stretchy, but not too much, how far along is the JTR and TW?
The PK and OGSkunk are lookin good too, im getting some yellowing in my plant as well, i mixed my nutrients yesterday, and upped them quite a bit, jt hope i dont burn her, but i'd rather over feed, then under feed
Everything looks great man
