<Autumnfall> PLants say ouch to foil
<DryGrain> pic number one
<Kirby> according to who
<Kirby>

<Autumnfall> According o the plants

<Autumnfall> The burn spots they have left
<DryGrain> foil creates hot spots
<DryGrain> uneven lighting
<DryGrain> flat white paint is best
<Autumnfall> use white paint
<DryGrain> its science
<Autumnfall> It diffuses the light evenly
<YourLocal420> foil makes hotspots
<YourLocal420> and burns plants

here are some new pics.... i'm hoping to harvest by nov 15

Ledhed · Oct 23, 2009

Unless they go through a major growth/fattening spurt, good luck harvesting by the 15th. They look a bit spindly and thin to me. You can harvest then, but probably won't get much unless they really take off in the next few weeks.

NeverSmoke · Oct 25, 2009

lol i was thinking the same thing but its been 9weeks since i started flowering and im getting tired of waiting, overall im satisfied that i got something out of some free cuttings.... both the grows i've done were half ass, and i didn't even get an hps or nutes untill half way through. i mean im not taking this too serious, its nothing more than practice for the real thing....i'm going to go all out for my next grow...............

oh and i borrowed my brother's camera so i can post some good pics, im waiting till morning though so i dont fuck with the light cycle

NeverSmoke · Oct 25, 2009

oh and Ledhed thank you for commenting, i know my set up isn't too good, but i also know i've seen a lot worse lol

NeverSmoke · Oct 26, 2009

so some of you may notice that the background has changed.....i came home last week and there was a notice on my door, well on all the doors in my apartment building.... it said that they would be doing a routine bug inspection in two days so i had to move them from my closet, the only place i could find was my friend's basement, the temps get lower there but not two bad still in the 70s but i put those sheets up to kind of keep the heat up, i didn't have white ones, and yeah i know black absorbs light but i think they have plenty.....

on the move they got really stressed and all of the branches were slouched down so i tied them and pined them up they seem ok now but i'm just going to leave it for extra support

here are some pics i took this morning:

NeverSmoke · Oct 26, 2009

on the second to last pic..... these two branches just kinda sprouted and started stretching, do you think these buds will actually fill out or will they be thin and ugly????

also does anyone think the stress might make them sprout male flowers and become hermi? does anyone have experience with that sort of thing?

slk · Oct 26, 2009

you can't rush it dude, take you time

del66666 · Oct 26, 2009

how much light you been using? i dont reckon they are going to fatten much but my fingers are crossed for you mate.

im using a 250w hps, the two floros that came with my areo garden, model: 9200-00Z, a big cfl, and a small cfl,

should i give them some more bloom nutes?

i may be talking out of my ass but play around in that redish spectrum with a 600w hps or something. i wouldn't use cfls just cuz they release a bit of uv light. naturally plants find uv light harmful to their DNA (in one common damage event, adjacent thymine bases bond with each other, instead of across the "ladder". This makes a bulge, and the distorted DNA molecule doesn't function properly.) but this really only happens with 'overexposure' whatever you want to call that.

i'd stick with hps bulbs only, which emit no uv light at all

del66666 · Oct 26, 2009

would have expected more from a 250, how close you got it?

NeverSmoke · Oct 26, 2009

probably 8 in from the tallest bud

del66666 · Oct 26, 2009

maybe they are 18 weekers, i guess things could improve. i take it you dont know the strain

yeah they are cuttings, lemon skunk and super skunk, the mothers were feminized seeds from nirvana.... at first only the super skunk smelled good but now they both smell, the lemon skunk smells more like fruit then lemon, and the skunk is skunky.... overall the plants look like shit but the buds still look ok, just not swollen like they should be

i've noticed some of the pistils from the bottom colas are turning amber, the ones on top are still white, and the ones on the very top are clear, does that mean the top is still growing?

oh and i checked out some of your pics.... i hope i can get to your level some day... lol

del66666 · Oct 27, 2009

yeah if its still putting out hairs then shes still on the grow, 80 percent brown ,red hairs means shes about ready mate

NeverSmoke · Oct 27, 2009

so i lowered the light but accidently dropped the other one and broke three branches.... i tested it out in a blunt with some of my friends and it was awesome.... lol i got like a quarter oz of bud drying now that i accidently broke.... i think i can smoke that and hold off an extra couple of weeks if thats what it takes.... i hope they get better

del66666 · Oct 27, 2009

thats coool, are you sure it was an accident lol, can only get better for sure.
