Well, after getting over the shock of cutting up Pretty Girl yesterday and seeing the nice growth she put on last night and today, I couldn't wait. Pretty Girl is now inside an old refrige, cutting her daylight from 12+ hours a day to alittle over 8. Since I am leaving for the states for a...

I have seen many manufactured at home grow boxes, yours surly is up there for engineer of parts. I didn't see anything there for a fan, little breeze is needed for good stems. Good Growing

Dang, I never get use to it, lol, yesterday when I was finished pruning and cloning I just could not bring myself to take pictures of the girls ( I'm pretty sure at this point they are). This morning, fresh cup of coffee to get the smoke and beer from behind my eyes I set out to take the pics...

I am off the beaten path here, I have never seen a plane or helicopter. Since I have moved here I have heard of 2 large 5 acre plus operations busted. I simply am 2 to 4 plants and a few clones I am working on. I have been told that as long as I keep 3 or fewer babies no one will bother me...

Well the 1st of July and I have made a major pruning on the littlest of the babies. I took 8 clones off of Pretty Girl and 1 topping of Dreams which I am attemptin g to clone. I will force flower this girls on the 14th of July, I have to come back to the States on the 5th. Pretty Girl was 20...

Well its Friday and the little babies have been a bit slower this week than last. I figure that there could be two reasons for this; 1. I might have been a bit heavy on the nutrients this week 2. The weather has been cooler and rainy. Since Monday's measurements the bush baby has gone from...

userfriendly is correct and also it can depend on the time of day you did it. Never spray in the sunlight and 1 tblsn per gallon of water, use Ivory if possible. Ivory doesn't have all the trash that most makers put into their soap. Good growing and stay chemical free.

Well the babies are entering their 6th week now and they stand, topped at 16 inches and non topped at 17 inches. Having opened up the topped baby yeterday the inner leaves have turned a much darker green and showing signs of faster growth. the top two branches after the minor trimming yeterday...

Due to the size of most of the photos please look at the gallery pics to see my plants. I will be posting them throughout the week, being in rural Central America I only have dial up and it takes a long time to load.

Presently I have two different stages of plants not counting some clones I am trying for the first time. My largest babies are over 7ft tall now and one is in what I would call the 7th day of flowering and the other is just starting to show signs that it is ready to start. I have not kept a...

I have 2 babies that broke ground the same day, granted they are different strains but at the time I topped the one they both were very close is growth patterns. The topped plant is now cloned and doing very well. These babies are 5 weeks old today and despite the weather being damp and cool...

the best cure for deer is to hang zest soap at about 2 to 3 feet above the ground. The scent of the soap seems to make them think man I guess but have used it effectively for many years. Mogie has listed some great methods also which I also use both for my babies and for my veggies. Good Growing

There are many pros and cons on the best way to increase yield and alter the growth rate. I personally have found that topping at the time the plant reaches the 4th set of leaves gives me a desired effect. I best I can say is you are going to have to see what works to create your perfect...

I probably should just keep my mouth shut at this point, this statement will stir up lots of fuss. You might as well trim those bottom leaves off, they tend to be more of a drain on the plant at the stage they are in. I am a firm believer in trimming, most of your nuteriants come from the...

I am new to this site and have enjoyed reading and basically studying the info that all of you good folks have posted. I am a long time grower from Florida who moved to Costa Rica this past year and am in my first grow here in the mountains. My plants are healthy and just starting to flower...

I am no expert on growing by any means, I have grown my own plants though for 38 years with what I consider good success. First, if you are putting your plants outside and they are under about 12 inches I always put wire around them, rabbits love a good plant along with other critters. Second...

Well after many years of not growing I am growing again and outside in Costa Rica, the temps are similiar to yours. I find growning outside the most enjoyable way and the most potent way of growing. The most important element is the soil prep in the hole you are using, personally I like a hole...

Well if you have access to rabbit manure and you don't want to use it for tea, you should see what it will do for you in the bottoms of the holes. When you dig out your holes for your babies, put a few inches in the bottom. Once, the roots reach this layer you will be amased and the great...

Personally, I have always preferred rabbit manure. It makes a wonderful tea and the waste product itself is then mixed in with you potting mix.
