Tahoe OG in Dual Monster Plant System (Scrog Edition)

[lordjin]

Subbed and looking very nice, again I am extremely jealous at how tidy your set up is; but it does give me something to strive for. Looks like I am about 2 to 3 weeks ahead of you in my SCRoG.

I think herb plants just love being grown by lordjin.


regards,

Thanks, boss.

I'll respond to your kind comment with my first AN to GH comparison note. The AN concentrate mixture is a clear sort of rosy amber color (not the dark brown of GH). At the clone introduction stage my weak GH fluid was still pretty clear, but you already detect a little something something in the water. The solution remains perfectly clear with low AN concentrations. I like that.

The clones are responding with excellent vigor. I think these clones have the record of all my grows in response time. They started growing almost as soon as I put the pots in and turned on the sprayers. Now I don't know if it's the clone health or the AN... and although it's very early in the game, I'll say it looks very promising. Very smelly for such tiny things, too.

I can tell it's a refined genetic just by the way the leaf blades look and the smell of course.

Edit:

I have a lot of activity in my water, so at first when there are no roots in the res, the ph tends to rise. I don't see a huge difference between AN and GH in this category, but the AN does seem to adjust more predictably and seems to require less up down fluid to respond.

jin, i think that if you update more than once a day you must submit a new healthy female pic! lol

I'll try to. I still have tons of alternate images from the girls you've already seen, but I really want to do a brand new shoot to go with my new journal. We shall see.

 

[lordjin]

You didn't think I would start a new journal and spare you of my usual ramblings, did you?

I have to say, though I tend to wait too long between grows, it's a great feeling to start up again. I think I kind of like letting the anticipation build by taking long breaks and just smoking on the last harvest like a fuckin' bump on a log. I know I should start again right away, but like I said to Cheeze, these grows can be draining.

But enough about that. It's just good to start again. It makes me feel much more like a participant rather than just a bowl-smoking spectator.

And to celebrate the start of a new grow, let's take a closer look at one of my favorite avatars from my last journal. Here's Stephy again. Pushing the limits of the moderators' patience...that's what I do here.

Bust out the MOSH!

 

[lordjin]

Bust out the MOSH!

Absolutely. But I think it's best if I space them out a bit between posts. I don't want to push the mods too hard and have them deleted.

Okay, I said wasn't gonna do this every day, but I think I'll scratch that and make this as detailed a progress report as possible. I'm collecting these as a time lapse series from day one of planting. For the daily updates, I'll just continue to compare the new photos to the day one photos and I'll show them later as a complete series.

Plant 1 Day 1:

Plant 1 Day 3:

Plant 2 Day 1:

Plant 2 Day 3:

In the first few days after planting, the clones are usually spending most of their energy establishing roots. I normally don't see much visible plant growth at this stage, but these little girls are telling a different story.

EDIT:
As you can see, the new growth has almost doubled in size in a little less than two days. These babies may be tiny now, but with the kind of vigor they're exhibiting so early on, I'm almost afraid of flower time. Hope the cage holds.

Looking good man

 

[lordjin]

Looking good man

Why thank you.

I'm really trying to go all out to show my grow every step of the way. I'm paying premium membership at Photobucket, so I may as well go hog wild on the pix. That's what the people want from a journal anyway... pictures, pictures, pictures. You, the faithful journal subscriber, see what I, the grower, sees... every single day of the grow. Now that's a journal imo.

 

[lordjin]

As you may have already guessed, I don't let a single comment on my journal go by without responding to it directly. So if you have something to say, make sure it's something good... or at the very least nothing nasty. Lol.

Unrelated side note:

I'm still smoking my stale Diablo crumbs and I'm still having a pretty good time with it.

Yikes! Are you referring to my clones or are you just happy to see my latest bumpy bump girl? Lol.

Yes, my other thread is a maze of bullshit. But every now and again, you'll find a treasure.

Most were removed because, although it's ok to post pictures of legal (and illegal) marijuana grows, it's not ok to post pictures of mostly clothed/tastefully non-nude women.

Which I'll never understand.

Well to the mods' credit, I will say that they later allowed me to post weekly girly pix during flower... And those are still up. I just made sure this one was still there -- also gives me an excuse for posting it again.

I'm currently in communication with one of the models as I'm working on getting my nude sets up on on a website called Zivity.

keep em coming jin!! lol im loving it! also i do have a minor in photography. just so you know. so if you need an assistant -- im your guy!!

Lol. If I had a nickel for every time a guy volunteered to be my assistant, I'd have like 45 cents!

But I will keep your qualifications in mind.

That little e-book thing I made in my last journal was fun, but I made that a limited time offer since it comes dangerously close to spamming RIU. And I certainly don't want to do that.

I'll keep photographing beautiful women just like I'll keep growing beautiful plants... It's just in my blood. I'll try to do a brand new shoot with a new model during this here Tahoe grow... But even if that doesn't end up happening, I plan to make a really strong push in my photographic efforts in the coming year. I also have a mind at building an entire grow room, so we shall what's what in 2012.
