The Art of Growing, Cheaply

its good to know, I watched them for a little while and they seemed too clumsy to be effective predators, but still hope they will eat all the larvae...There are a few dozen in mama baby room so I figure in a week when all the mites hopefully gone , I'm gonna bring all the plants outside and set them free....trimming the haze really slowing me down...nothing got mouved or firtilized yet...I still have to clone the diesel and stick them in flower, the batches of clones from hawaiian and white lightning are rootbound and ready to be mouved into 5 gallon pots...to think of it, now that I know that my soil is contaminated, which I assume it is, the ladybugs are going to mouve into the greenhouse...got also some new genetics that sprouted root and needzs to be planted....power day tommorrow and at the end I'm planing on chopping white lightning mom;..pics of done projects tommorrow or bust!

...so 10 deisels went into flower on 5/24/11, the other strains went into a different room where I have combined MH and HPS lighting at separate levels, everything has been watered and firtilized...here are some pics

the first pic is diesel roots in 5 gallon pot getting cloned and mouving into flower, 2- deisel, 3- deisel clones, 3- multy level hps/mh setup, 5- some new strains...6 - my nitrogen enriched compost generators 7- deisel in flower

very nice bio. how was ur weekend hope it was safe and fun.

Thanx hammer, mine was good. How was yours? had some friends camping out in the back yard, and still managed to get things done...this whole buisness with hauling water from the spring is getting reallly old ...with the prices of gaz and greenhouse temps beeng close to 100*f...so, the next big purchase is a reverse osmosis filter and designing a gravity watering system for the greenhouses raised bed...(which has only been started at this point)...I did put out older Iranians out in the first finished corner of it...the iranian clones are rooted and in need of dirt, mama /baby room has moved to the greenhouse
I have lost some older starters due to high temps...So , does anybody have a DIY irrigation system in mind? I am open to suggestions...so far I am picturing 2 55 gal drums on a raised, freestanding platform conected to a grid of drip tape? I dunno...its still in the works...if anybody has any experience at all ....also to my neighbors from around the state there are some lights for sale that I will let go cheap...ok here ar3e some pics...

ok..there are the iranians, my redneck table, lights for sale , all 250w magnetic HPS's , and my basil...laters...
Ohh yeah a bit of good news, lady bugs totally worked, no mo mites!

I need a few clones Contact me at [email protected] Am a cardholder and need some plants TY Mike

...what happen' to u Mike? I havent heard from u since we talked...here is a friendly warning to all those who have either contacted me or about to...while I'm all for doing business with other cardholders, I WILL NO LONGER REVEAL THE LOCATION OF MY BUSINESS! and for all those who already know it and consider showing up without a phone call....JUST FUCKIN'TRY IT!!! We are ready for you!!!
Now that we got that out of the way, here is the latest: all 20 big haze plants whent in to green house raised bed (its only 1/2 full but took 5 6 foot truck beds loaded way over!) another dozen of haze going into flower, all Iranian clones were planted straight into raised bed, next I'm transplanting the white lightnings, unsexed TGA's and hawaiians...

Well i was just curious, because im growing some diesel as well, and was possibly going to use you as my pulse on the strain, if we happened to have had the same.
Mine is NYC Diesel x Sour Diesel so probably not. but hey if its a diesel it should at least be similar to each other in finishing times etc. one would think.
- happy growin

yup, 65-70 days...not too hard to grow, enjoy!

well its summer solstice now and soon, within the next month the greenhouse will become a flower room while all the indoor space will be converted to veg...there is alot of uncertanty now regarding the ammendment to the local MJ laws so it is unclear yet how much will go into flower with natural sunlight this fall...I'm sure by the time the raised bed is finished I'll have a better Idea about the #'s they will let us run...so, hopefully you guys got some Idea of how this ghetto op got through the last 6 months...there will be another grow log in a few weeks/months...lots of work ahead, but cheers for now and Happy Fathers day to all Dads out there....peace.I might post the last set of pics still...

...or maybe I'll just keep on ghetto rolling it in this thread...the next set of pics was taken 10 days apart...one can really see the stretch in initial flowering...some haze a week away from harvest...love the strain, easy tasty and big buds!

well its almost been solstice to solstice and now its harvest time...what have I been doing in the past 6 months?....runin'round like a chiken with my head cut off!....thinkin about keeping this jurnal going...took a few pics during the summer and will post'em tommorrow ....how is everybody else?
