My tangerine dreams are 15 days in flower now. Starting to show nice bud sites but still stretching like crazy, even under a dedicated 1000WHps the 4 share at the moment. Stretched about 4 inches last weekend maybe a bit more. I was away most of the weekend and when I came back 2 of the plants had grown into the glass of the cool tube- thankfully at the cold side of the tube.....lol

They sit in 5gal pots on top of plastic shoe size boxes for added height. Last night I removed the boxes to drop them down about another 5 inches or so. They sit pretty close to the cool tube but I have a fan always blowing on the tops.

Other than that I feed them at around 400-500ppm with a ph between 6.3-6.8

Interesting note about ph pens. I have 2 different pens from different companies. Both read ph 7 or 4 respectively when dipped in calibration solution. However when I drop them both in the same bucket of freshly mixed nutes they have a spread of .3 and sometimes .4 and even .5
Yikes

I'm growing larger plants for sure, if I ever grow this strain again I may try a SOG

OK get this for a weird day started out pretty normal did the morning wake an bake went about tending the grow room and plants about 11 hear a truck pull into the driveway so I close up the grow room and go to the door and a fed ex truck is pulling away so look outside the door and there is a package from BGH this is odd cause i didnt order anything so i grab the box and open it and they sent me another clone machine. after all said and done they screwed up paperwork and had the original order as out of stock (which wasnt)so they created a new order and shipped out the new stock.SWEET 2 clone machines for price of one,so after all this is figured out and i am happily planning on more cuttings for clones the doorbell rings now i panic cause only one person ever rings the doorbell (my mother-in-law) shit close up the grow room again and quick tidy up everything out of site. soon as she walks in the door her first comment and i quote "MMMM smells delicious in here did you just make tea" dummy me said no and she comments it smells just like celestial seasonings mandarin orange spice tea. Now i am really caught off guard ended up blaming it on her daughter and she bought it WHEW!!!!

and all that from just one small TD that is just starting to flower Mac i feel pretty safe saying Tangerine Dream will literally vaporize your roomies albert walker yes pun intended haha

So anyway todays update not much goin on other than the normal grow ops the amazon bitch is starting to pick up momentum in flowering the hairs are getting plentiful and buds are getting denser trichs are collecting noticably each day now can only see them with the magnifying glass and as a noticable darker color on the edges and freckles across the leaves.so at the current rate another week or two should be some killer picks of a young porn star. Later bros and many an awesome blossom

celestial seasonings mandarin orange spice tea.


That's EXACTLY what it smells like.


My babies have barely done anything in the last 24+ hours... Just started growing on those new tops... next few days hopefully some growth and transplant and BOOM they should explode

all 4 are doing well though

Mac,your in chem classes right? what is your take on CO2 injection in the water there is alot of options for aquarium plants is there a possible benefit for MJ or does it only work for underwater plants? I cant find any info on it other than aquarium systems and they dont give much info either.
My idea is to hook up the airstone to the feed line and diffuse it into the water from 40 oz paintball cylinders the regulator is specifically adapted for this in aquarium use

Yeah i wish i had vegged her for another 2 weeks i can only imagine what this strain is capable of,from this one plant though it is well worth all the wading through the crap and getting into seedling phase,I have decided that a sacrifice is in the works for more cuttings seeing as i have space for 8 more clones now this should work out well as i live close by the river and found an excellent nature made hydro leach sytem that will be perfect for a guerilla grow and i can let them grow all summer.so there it is the pre planning phase for my summer grow cats out of the bag bros so if it works out we can expect some pics of the full potential of this strain

ooo would love to see the TD outdoor!

and as for the co2 in the water it may cause some help but i can also forsee problems as from what i know of hydro you usually have to airstone your water for a while before you use it or during. thats to put 02 into the water so flooding it with co2 could cause some unforseen problems, it is used in aquariums becasue the plants have no other way of getting co2 to do photosynthesis whereas our plants get im guessing at least 95% of their co2 through the stomata on their leaves. i would invest in a regulator and tank to add it to the air in their if you really want to but i see no reason its needed. id wait till you have some more room for errors tho before experimenting with it dont wanna kill the babies.

but thats just what i thought of when i read it so thats all just my guess lol.
although i am studying to be a plant biology major then possibly a masters in botany

Chugging along now, had to survive on the first set of leaves for a while.... transplanting tomorrow to 3.5 gal

Doing good, nice and thick stem.. Roots to the bottom of the pot now


Even the retarded one is growing some nice tops... hoping that retarded leaf thing was just the first set

No idea bro. I got a text from a buddy saying drop everything and get on attitude. I also grabbed some catatonic from resin seeds.
Just got an email from attitude. My order shipped with a coffee mug this time.
