Thanks guys. I've come to the conclusion that just like every other living thing, these plants want to grow and survive. If I just fulfill their basic needs and stay out of the way they will do all the work for me. It's friggin awesome. I may have to do some intervening soon, though. I think they are gonna be too tall for my space. But since I only have two there is room to bend them a bit.

hothousemary · Jun 8, 2008

as ya know you and I are in almost identical places in our grows, Ive had to start doing some bending because of room... only two days into it but it seems to be working great so far! actually think it will increase my yield... btw dont ya love watching the buds explode everyday!

mared juwan · Jun 8, 2008

Yeah, it might actually work to my advantage to get some of those lower buds more exposure to the light. We'll see I guess.

Update: Grow day 61, Flower day 21

So I've been keeping Slowpoke alive this whole time because all the new nodes and preflowers were female, but the lower branches are taking a long time to show. I'm still at the point where I'm 90% sure it's hermie but look how it filled out under those CFLs! It's on day 6 of flower. Progress with the other plants seems slow but indeed those hairs get a teeny bit longer every day. Thankfully, their vertical growth has slowed to 1/2-1 inch per day. You can see that the plant on the right that was split in half can stand completely straight on it own and not one single branch or leaf died!!! If I had to describe the smell of the buds I would say it was like someone put strawberries in their gymsocks and played a basketball game. Fruity feet. Does that sound weird?

Yeah but you know I have a sneaky suspicion that Barack smokes... I think things are going to change for cannabis law while he is president... He is from Hawaii he admits to smoking in the past you know... but he has to keep it all under the radar right now just to get elected, I'm not sayin he'll legalize it fully but I think things will lighten up.. But I encourage all of you to read about the history of cannabis growing in this country it is enough to make you want to start a crusade... Imagine how our economy could boom if we could legally grow and become farmers.... lol

I lived in Hawaii for 6 years, I can say that I did not know anybody who did not smoke, my professors at the university smoked like hell, also the doctors, lawyers and some police I knew. I have walked by the police so many times stoned, and some times I spoke to them to see what happens. On concerts the police would come and tell people please don't smoke here,they felt sorry for telling us that. Obama must have been a stoner. I love Hawaii

hey mared,
You are still free, you made me so paranoid the other day, I live in an apartment next to three others and they have these check ups every three months, so I have no idea what to do when they come. I might have to move the plants to the car some how. haha. I always lock the door to the grow room when I leave the apt, you should do that too.
I have started the flowering a few days ago, one was a male so I cut it down. I have a few clones that survived.
I researched the calmag you told me about, and I am adding epsom salt every week to my watering now, thank you for letting me know.
My PH is a little wacko still, but it is better.
Your buds are coming along, I love it
Peace

Someone like Mared, the law would let him out on O.R.(own recognisees).

mared juwan · Jun 12, 2008

Just received my special delivery from dr. chronic. The return address is "Button Fun!!!" in Essex, lol. How exciting. Some prize-winning strains at my fingertips! I still have the eight clones that are doing very well by the way. They look exactly like they did when I cut them seven days ago, a vast improvement over the yellow droopiness of the first batch. When and how many seeds I will start will depend on how many of the clones I get to root. I want eight plants maximum in that little closet. I'm still more comfortable watering and treating each plant individually so it shouldn't be a problem to mix in clones with the other seedlings. I just hope I don't have to wait too much longer on these clones to root.

TetraHyC · Jun 12, 2008

You're STOKED. :hump:

TI-89, learn its language and your in. :hump:

TI-85, can't even come close. :spew:

mared juwan · Jun 14, 2008

Many pics tonight because I am just so fucking proud of my girls. Honestly, I had been a little worried as of late because it seemed like the buds said "timeout, we need to rest" and stopped growing. Which brings me to my next point. Cal-mag rocks! I doubled my dose from 2mL/gal to 4 and the buds exploded! Peep it.

And here is the final shots of Slowpoke in all its herm glory.

Teachers made calculus more complicated than it had to be for me. I had to take three different levels of calculus :cry:

Let's see, intro calc.... Seems very easy now. All it is is using mathematical rules to calculate the slope of a curved line at a specified point on the x-axis. There, just got you through the first three weeks. Calc 2 and calc 3 have more letters in the equations than numbers. They really suck. Good luck.
