The Cloning/Veg Cab:

The DIY reflector contains 230w (CFL), but only 6 23w (daylight) bulbs running for now.

Quicksilver was definitely showing male; he must have had 20 balls starting by the end of today's grow, so I gave him the chop. It was a freebie, so no great loss.

Still have 5 confirmed females, and waiting on 6 BMS to show sex. It's plenty crowded in there, so it's good to free up the space.

1 week into 12/12, so it's just a waiting game now.

1 of the unknown sativa ladies is in full-bloom, but not much else to see - other than 10+ inches of new vegetative growth, and all plants lollipopped (lower growth thinned to force tops) this week..

The bag-seed (3+ months old Lsted plants) in 3 gal pots were so pot bound; I decided to re-pot them, and the Gigabud as well. The unknown sativa ladies of the same age as the indica had become the most pot-bound, but the roots still looked very healthy (bright white).

This was also a good opportunity to mix the rainbow mix bloom (1-9-2) directly into the soil (as directed), 2+ heaping Tbls per gal. I also added a couple cups worm casings to the mix bring it closer to 2-9-2. They were wet when I transplanted, so afterwards I only watered around he perimeter of new soil, with a half dose of silica-blast to stimulate root growth.

I re-potted the UI (unknown indica ladies) in 5 gallon containers, but the US (unknown sativa ladies) in only slightly larger 4 gal containers. It will be interesting to see if the indica (in larger containers) can gain any ground on the sativa.

One of the UI laddies was in shock yesterday (due to me trying to work in a heavy dose of the new fertilizer it into the top of the soill with a kitchen fork (2 days ago) . After a good flush yesterday, and a transplanting;she looked pretty sick, but by this morning she had bounced right back.

The biggest struggle has been trying to keep the canopy level; growing 4 bag seed of 2 different strains (heavily LSTed) along side 2 fast growing hybrid strains, all from seed.

BMS will be getting their first dose of bloom nutes tomorrow.

Here are a couple group shots, feel free to chime in

update:

10 days into 12/12, all fed bloom nutes, and all showing female sex.

The unknown sativa ladies are already fattening up.

After 4 days; the clones are looking good, so yesterday I clipped one corner off their baggie-domes. The keepers will go into 6" square pots in 2 -3 weeks, and the rest will either get re-clipped and refrigerated, or trashed.

Gigabud got slightly burned - 2" from the light (in the sweet spot). I have her at 5" now, and she seems to be putting out new growth again.

Enjoy the show

They really seem to like the new bloom nutes, and the larger containers.

I picked up some earth grow bloom and some high phos bat guano today

If the girls are thirsty tomorrow they will get a half dose of 0-3-1

I would go full strength, but the rainbow mix (top dressing) is still seeping in.

3rd week of 12/12 I'll start feeding heavy, and adding grandma's molasses

wait ... so how long have they all been flowering? atleast 1-2 weeks i wud guess just from the way the flowers look on it.

looking good!

any news on the others?

That's right skunkman, nearly 2 weeks on 12/12.

All but 2 got thier first taste of earthjuice bloom today. The other 2 were still slightly damp when I dug my finger into the top 2" of soil.

These big pots can go 6- 7 days between watering's. 4-5 days for the white garbage pails. I have 4" dead space (Styrofoam) in the bottom of the white garbage pails. BTW

If the blue moonshine continue to grow, I'm going to do some gentle LST in flower

i did LST to all my hawiian snow clones during 2weeks or so. I think i might b like a half week ahead or mayb even the a cpl days ahead on 12/12 cant remember the percise date i started them!

I was also told that the snow plants take up to 11weeks to flower, and that when u think they r done, they r not lol. So for the first time efver i will be using a magnifying glass... i just dont know to what degree i need. like a 30X.. any suggestions?

Me too my cuz lives in michigan and they just passed and decriminalized medical movement and alot of counties are reporting less DUI'S since. HMMM? Weed or Beer? I know my answer! later bros.

isnt that something...!

Radio shack has what you need 10x is fine; 30x is better. Gotta get me one of these too, but not sure if I want the lighted microscope or the regular magnifying glasses

I tied the girls down today, because raising the height of my grow involves reworking the ventilation system; maybe next grow.

I ended up tipping over one of the girls tall pots. I'm lucky the main stem didn't snap; it must have bent at a 45 angle to the soil, so I expect she'll suffer the shock of her roots being ripped

2 weeks flower now, but not much new to see. I'll update pics later in the week, when they need another feeding. Full strength this time plus molasses.

saweeet bro!

I do not think that i am going to post pics everday.. mayb only m evrythother day or so idk

hey bleedintears thanks for stopping by! I was starting to wonder is anyone was still watching this one.

Things are going to get real interesting from here on out.

The stench coming from these plants is incredible, mainly the BMS, and the skunky sativa looking bag-seed. Carbon filtering 24/7 now

damn dude!

looks fucking sweet! Great job!

i wonder how that will turn out
