So it looks like I've managed to keep the drying room at least within the upper limits of acceptable. Keeping my fingers crossed the humidity is low enough, I do NOT want mold! But they look pretty while they're drying for sure!

Dunno, but I'm guessing it might involve rifles, night scopes, and woodland critters :P
Hahaha! I loved that comment he posted about the squirrels!

Edit: actually I think he called em tree rats.

Edit again: but good bless him if he is out there having fun with guns and I'm here chatting and spraying my plants down lol

I know man, I wish I lived somewhere I could get away with shooting somewhere other than the firing range. Sadly I have to make do with my homemade catapults (Slingshots), but at least I can still put a .50 calibre lead ball down field at over 300 ft/sec. It's no bullet (or rock for that matter :D ) but it's the closest thing I can get to it without having the cops called every time I practice in the back yard, and if I really had to I could probably take down a buck. Working on a new design to get the power up enough to take down a boar, as I would much rather hunt boar (My wife would kill me if I shot a deer, she can hardly even watch Bambi with our niece and nephews) but I don't want to dick around with something that will just piss it off, and bows/crossbows are just too damn expensive. I know I'll have to finish it with my SRK, but I'd rather it be pretty haggard by the time it comes to that.

Hey everybody! This is my first grow, and I am excited to show off my progress but before we get to the pics let me give a little background on what my setup is like (After all how can I ask for feedback if you don't know what I got going on). Like I said, this is my first time, but I did a bit of research (not too extensive but enough to cover the basics). The girl is an Agent Orange clone from a local dispensary, she looked the most vigorous of her sisters and since I only have room for one plant I wanted to make sure I got something that would be resilient enough to cope with a newbie like me and still have a chance at least a meager yield of relatively smoke-able bud. I know that Northern Lights (Another strain they had) is really more of a beginner recommendation but something inside me hates to do the recommended thing, too many years of wanting to go my own way. Anyways, to cut the rambling short (As I know it may be boring to many) I will try to sum everything up succinctly. Clone of Agent Orange, was about 6" when I got her, transplanted the next day into a 3 gallon soft pot filled with Fox Farms Ocean Forest mixed with a couple ounces granular mycorrhizae (And yes I have since discovered that FFOF on its own can cause a good deal of nute burn, next time I will pre mix it with Light Warrior to prevent it). These pics are of her the day of the transplant.
The thing that i like about this post is the dude has not gone into the counless do this do that that comes a long with growing,also the looking for a strain that can cope with a new growers,problems that he may come across.she is looking great nice coulour dude what ec you on,bump her up to 1.3.I will not comment on nutes because i have never used them i am a great lover of canna and advanced combo's.have you got a ec pen,borrow a ph pen and just take one reading if your water is good then that will do.I no longer ph,also i would take the way the plant looks rather than going on info on what you should be doing it looks good has long has your room is keyed,ie temps good good air flow plenty of movement and air been taken out the room and replaced by new has fast has possible.by this i mean i have a 10 " out let that goes to filter and inlet that is 2" smaller on the floor of the floor with holes made in the duct work,exaust up high.you can also start to panic when first growing with temps,thats why i have also gone into takeing at max 3 reading in winter coldest days i take a reading just incase i need to add a heater in the uk thats a defo yes,the other reading is on a warmish day in winter and the third just a random reading.i also do the same in summer but twice one reading on a hot day and a night time lights of reading,i do away with them after that for the reason that they can cause you to make stupid errors like changeing things to try and drop or increase the temps.if the plants look healthy then i just go on that i have 6 x 600 in one room with temps that reach 90/93 dgs but im a great believer that plants can become used to hot temps when i say hot i don't mean 110 dgs.i do flip 3 bat wings for 3 cool hoods in summer this gets me down to 28/30 i happy with that and so are the plants,this is another reason for doing true females and not femanised seeds,more chance of them flipping and giveing you seed.hope this helps.the reason my temps are a little higher in winter is bacause i have tested the yeild on cool hood the large ones not tubes there a waste space,bat wings are far better luman wise but my yeild is still good from cool hoods just about 6 oz less of two plants but 6 oz is nearly a grand.i have medical uses that relay on the medication that i grow for them so i like to get the most i can.Also the number your doing is great to see because most new to growing think the more you do the more you will get in the end nothing could be further from the truth.1 plant per 600 hps light will throw ya about 3/4 lb.growing can become a obsession and there is a lot to think about sometimes holidays have to be put on hold,also plants some times have to be taken down early or even at week 3 of flowering this happend to me a few month ago heart breaking.keep at it you will get there and you will learn far more by doing it your self........................tyke.................................................................................
