Fabric pots are great! My understanding of them is that they help to air-prune the roots, and cause a larger root mass. I've been using them (both smart and air pots) for years now without issue and prefer them over plastic pots. :) The girl in the picture was in a 7 gallon smartpot, and my two...

It's hard to tell by the picture, but the leaf with the spots in the center looks like it could be a calcium deficiency. On the other hand, the leaf with a slight curl that's toward the upper left next to the suns glare looks a little like it's over watered. Have you tried checking the ph, or...

Indacouch said it perfectly! Think of being so high you don't want to get off the couch, as if you're locked to it. Hence, being couch locked. ;) I grow primarily indica's for their relaxing effect, so harvesting when the trichs are 90/10 milky to amber, helps to balance the heavy indica...

What they said ^, you're almost there. From here is a matter of personal preference. The last two weeks or so of flower are the peak window for harvest in my experience. People's opinions will vary on this subject. I always ask myself..."what's the ratio of trichome variants, has the swelling...

Thank you! She's been quite kind. :weed:

So, when I say micro, I mean indoor size 2-2.5 feet tall, with the sun as my HID, lol! After having three of my four indoor seeds turning out to be male this summer, I ended up getting a couple of clones in early July 8th to throw in the grow area, with the plan to flower them small and taking a...

She ended up giving me just under 3 ounces of good flower with just over an ounce of smalls/sugar leaf. Overall, I think the manifold technique is great. Though, the bulk of the weight came from the top twelve inches of the canopy with the light at eighteen inches over head. Had I cut the veg...

Chopped the girl down a couple of weeks early due to lack of both funds and flowers. I'll have the final weight posted up sometime next week. She's already about 4 days into drying. I've also dusted about 10 or 12 budsites on the lemon og and gg#4 girls outside. As long as the pollen is viable I...

Here she is at day 37 of flower. The leaves have started to claw leading me to believe that she has some ph problems or nitrogen toxicity. I'm leaning toward the former since she hasn't had any nitrogen added during flower. The two lower branches that were sprayed with the cs are starting to...

Anywhere they sell gardening supplies, no need for anything fancy. I bought mine from Fred Myer; however, it can be found in the garden section of most places. No need for a peroxide bath as long as the sand has been washed. Hope that helps! :)

Journal Update: Day 28 of flower The manifold (though not done perfectly) in conjunction with the defoliation is working nicely. Also, the spots on the lower branches I've been spraying with colloidal silver have started to sprout pollen sacs, which should be perfectly timed to breed to the...

Good looking set up, it kind of reminds me of my first grow box. One thing you may want to look into are 63w actual draw cfl's once I threw three of them into the box I was pulling about 2 zips out of a 2sq ft space consistently. Though, they do tend to run the temps up in the grow space without...

As promised here are pictures of the Lemon OG and GG#4 girls, as well as the Big Diesel male outside. I was too lazy to go out and photograph him but he'll stand out for sure, lol!

Here's the big girl 2 days after her last defoliation. I went at it a little more aggressively than planned thanks to the beginning of a mite infestation, but I think I successfully biopsied those buggers.

The struggle is real! Luckily I've been able to get the heat issues under control. Started doing some research on leaf surface temperature to help me dial in my closet temps. Sure enough, the studies I've found have been correct. Even though the temps in my closet top out around 82 deg, the...

Journal update: Day 16 of flower The big girl inside is doing great! Her canopy has reached about 5 sq ft and is officially taking up half my closet, lol! The only food she's been given so far in flower is about 3 tablespoons of kelp meal worked into the topsoil. This week I'm working on...

Journal update: Day 1 of flower. So, I've decided to make the fem'd seeds with the two clones outside and have thrown the big girl into flower. She may be a little too big at this point to really reap the benefits of the manifold, though. She'll get another defoliation at week 3 of flower which...

They're easy enough to get rid of in young plants, but I don't want to risk them moving to the big girl. She already has her pre-flowers popping pistils, so no worries on the sex.

If I ever put her into flower, lol! I've been using her as a mother recently and am waiting for the clones to show some sign of life so I can flip to flower. If I can get the mites off of the GG and OG clones I may flower sooner, but it's looking like it'll be another two weeks before the 12/12...

Here's an up close look at the manifold. It's not perfect, but notice how the the two mains are equal girth of the stalk? Had I super cropped her, the growth would be more lateral, but the canopy is still nice and flat. :)
