Update: Here is my Copper Chem #2. It’s 5 days into 12/12 and under a 315 CMH until this weekend. Gotta take out some Star Fucker and make room in the flowering room. I’ll try and pull #1 and #3 out of away from the HPS lights to get a pick soon.
Web, that is going to be a monster when its done.
NICE! :clap:

It took me 6 beans to get 1 female from the cookies and chem, but she was pretty nice all around. Good structure, yield smell, taste, etc.. Took it down around 65 days, I believe. View attachment 4139553 View attachment 4139554 View attachment 4139555 View attachment 4139556 View attachment 4139557
Those are incredibly beautiful. :weed:

I just finished checking the trichs on my two TNTs. They're within a few days of chop but the tallest one has taken on a really foul offensive smell. At first I thought maybe it was my soil because I just started using a little bit of guano in my mix. I'm trying to use a few things up I've had layin around.
But nope. It wasnt the soil.
Then I looked around for my puppy. (If he sneaks food from the cats dish he gets really gassy and its nasty enough to knock a buzzard off a gut wagon)
But nope. Its definitely the plant.

Anyone grown TNT out yet? I'm wondering if this is going to get stronger at chop or after its cured.
You had me at, "knock a buzzard off a gut wagon" and now I'm sold. Tell me more :mrgreen:

Who do you use for soil testing?



The school of thought is that thick stems = most likely a good hemp plant when choosing males. Better at making fiber than buds. I would only eliminate plants based on this if I were doing big number selections. The higher number of selections the more rigid you tend to get when deciding what to keep or throw away.
I get the S3 test (Mehlich 3 test with micros) from Spectrum Analytics in Ohio and also order the Ammonium Acetate pH 8.2 test, sodium, silicon, EC (probably totally unnecessary), and also usually get tests for Molybdemum, Cobalt and Selenium, but I grow in field soil. I have had very good results with those tests in field soil.

If you're in a lightweight mix and you wanted to send in a sample to Spectrum you'd want the K3 test. And you'd want to weigh out your soil to some volume that's a multiplication of a kilogram (not including aeration) and add the same multiple of necessary milligrams to the kilogram to hit whatever numbers your shooting for for your individual minerals. I tried to help one of the members here dial in their lightweight mix with the standard way of doing soil prescriptions for field soil, which is just by volume, and most of his mineral levels came back waaaay high. I'm positive the follow up soil testing would've have been pretty close to the desired numbers if I had told him to actually weigh out the soil (accounting for extra aeration in the mix) and make adjustments to the actually mg of minerals to kg of soil. Hopefully that made sense.

Jidoka over on icmag is a very knowledgeable guy when it comes to soil mineral balancing and growing in lightweight mixes and he just said he gets the S3 and S5 tests from International Ag Labs for his lightweight mixes. I'm pretty sure they do not use the Mehlich 3 test. I don't know what they use, but I'd guess it's probably the Lamotte soil testing method. And if you're not familiar with doing soil prescriptions you'd probably want to get the S1 test instead of the S3.

Edit: I also call Spectrum Analytics to get the index numbers for copper and manganese. I believe there's some legal reason they can't email them to customers

You're right, it's just to walk a little with some strain on the head and notes details of the wonders of the tropics, I feel fortunate to be here, although my compatriots do not even notice it, they are asleep. Then they say that I am the antisocial drug addict.
not to do offtopic, I upload one of my doc at the end of the bloom my last harvest, and another wonder of the tropics 2 meters high and wide.
Way cool plants! #1 photo is looking really nice! I live in an area that rivals glacier national park after almost 60yr living here I am still in awe.... Long as your med use isn't controlling your life I'd say fug them! we all seem to have a redneck friend who still believes the governments demonization of our .

I've had my s1s in flower for almost 2 weeks now. At this point, there's really no point in scrapping them other than to save a negligible amount on power and nutrients. It will be 5-6 weeks before I'm ready to put anything else into the flower room, so I'll just flower them out, and make some concentrates if the flower isn't up to my standards.

One thing I noticed about them when I was cutting the males down is they have super hollow stems, Almost like a plastic straw lol. Stems were really nice and thick but very hollow. Anyone ever seen that before?
i also had huge hollow stems on males, could have ran a garden hose thru it! The huge odd stem, quick vert growth with the 6-8in internode spacing made me suspect early but I talked myself into "can't be male" in the 70s when young we had some mexica bag seed with large hollow stems but they were not stringy/strand like these were...

I have super healthy plants with hollow stems,I'm not sure and never really questioned it because it never effected growth.could be from unusually fast growth in an artificial environment. Seems like I have an OG that runs in the same buckets that doesn't have those hollow stems at all.
Agreed all the other plants I have were normal
If you got money for a lawyer then the FLIR isn't gonna work. Illegal search and seizure. Cops can't just assume you're growing weed, you could be growing carrots, none of their business.

The cops need controlled purchases to get solid bust. I have a few friends beat growing charges because cops thought they were "the law", the judge seen it differently.

So yes cops/detectives in Southern/rural areas will 100% make fake online personas in order to catch low level crooks.

I have had cops go through my garbage in the middle of the night in search of evidence, well I assume they were cops since they were in an unmarked white caprice/crown vic type car and when I looked out the window they floored it off. I had a creep "friend" that I think tried to fuck me over but I'm no spring chicken and not one to be caught slipping.

When I was in that illegal state I would take trash to random dumpsters or leaves and shit I would backpack out to the wood via a nice long bike ride.

Paranoia keeps you out of prison, lol.
There is no way my old sack of a body could accomplish some of the extremes I used to take, loose lips sink ships mentality served me well.... I am still overly paranoid but about some meth head scum breaking in for my tv and finding my meds....

Well good news for those wanting a shorter flower time with GPS gear. The cowboy kush will definitely not go past day 60 I bet. Could be any day on that one now, seeing a couple ambers pop up and lots of milky Trichs going on. Day by day now. I am expecting it to be a 55 day strain now, so actually just under 8 full weeks of flower.

edit for clarity: no way its going full 9 weeks.

Cackleberry. Best frost coverage I have grown so far. The smell is still the fresh limes on a frost leaf rub, and a nose brushing against a bud brings more of a sprite smell to the limes. It’s really awesome! Probably will come down in the 9th week.

Edit: Like I mentioned earlier, Don't sleep on this one if you can get it. I got 9 seeds left from my pack still of the cackleberry. Popped two seeds, two females, this one took over.

One thing I noticed about them when I was cutting the males down is they have super hollow main stems. Almost like a plastic straw lol. Stems were really nice and thick but very hollow. Anyone ever seen that before?
The 3 wedding Cake's are the same. 2 were "tall" and hollow and 1 was "short" and hollow. I cut the tops off of them and are sitting in water, way away from the rest.
I have a Blueberry I'm gonna hit with these S1's AKA " ??? Cake".
If this turns out, it will be a miracle. lol
Name her "Blue Hor" or "Blue Virgin". lol
This sucks having so many males.
Has anyone actually found out what happened?

I had hollow stems on my chinook haze and they turned out good.
Stretchy as all hell though.
I figured ph problems created a boron deficiency but maybe some plants just need more.
Not sure if I buy the theory about thick vs thin stems. Environment has a lot to do with it. Plants grown outdoors have thicker stems so they don't snap when it's stormy.
I like to lollipop plants that are going outdoors, then repot them deep. This causes a new set of roots to develop at the soil line to anchor the plant.

Well, went to the mail and found the package from Gu. I had only purchased 2 packs of the s1's and he was kind enough to include 3 packs including a Copper Chem. Almost makes me feel bad, ok it does. I am more than satisfied with the end result. I wish I had some GPS bud porn to put up but this is only going to be my first GPS run. Hmm Cackleberry, Copper Chem or Cookies and Chem...
This might help with your decision, Cookies and Chem , 5 out of 6 were female. Chinook Haze 4 females and 2 males. Tomahawk, 3 females and 3 males, CackleBerry, 3 males and 0 females. Gunslinger, 2 females and 3 males, wedding Cake S1, 3 males. Out of everything planted, 11 males and 17 females. I'll take it, but was looking forward to the CackleBerry. Maybe next time.
