GG Bastard Series - Colombian Gold

[ayr0n]

I hope your not getting sick for real. Hopefully it's just your body cleaning itself out.

I hope you're right! Not feeling that great today either lol...I normally never get sick but when I do it's always right around Christmas for some reason ;\

Funny, the best luck I've had is using Canada Post. They take a little longer but if they try and deliver and you're not home, they drop the package at a local store that has a mini post office in it, then I just pop by there and pick it up. Courier's suck when there's a signature required.

Is Canada Post like your guys' USPS (united states postal service)?

I was kind of over reacting...that guy on the phone didn't speak english well so I couldn't understand what he was trying to tell me, but what they do is leave a door tag with multiple check boxes, and you just check that you want it dropped off without a sig (sign away liability from them) n the next day they come see which box you checked n go from there...Good news is the package got delivered for real today - now lets hope my shit hole neighbors fingers aren't feeling sticky today Someone took my girls purse out of her car last month...she had to get a new everything. Hard as fuck to get new ID's when they all require some form of ID to get lmao... :X

Today is the day. I know your excited. It'll be like a mansion for your lady's compared to the apartment they been living in.

Yeah me too, I tend to grab a flu bug or something every Xmas season, I swear it's because I slow down my normal pace and take some time off work, the other time I typically get sick is when I go on vacation!

Yeah it's the equivalent of your USPS, their actually not bad here and they don't seem to check packages or anything. Recently they started delivering to your door, they used to dropbox it and I'd just pick it up. Last week I got some seeds from Seed City (UK) and the delivery woman delivered them to the door, I'm sure she had no clue what was in the package from "Incense City" - lol

Damn, that sucks, I hate having to replace even a credit card, loosing all your ID must be a nightmare

Lol I feel ya man..the mail lady is always looking at me funny when she comes n drops off a package labeled hydroponic something or other every week >D

Yeah someone was going around our town stealing out of all the cars - the guy that owns the local bar found like 6 wallets and my girls purse in his parking lot n gave it back but that was after we went n got her replacements of everything...all the idiot took was the change (like 60 cents...). Fucked up to mess someone up that bad over a couple quarters...I'd like to catch the little shit. Thinking about setting a trap with something that's valuable set out n just waiting or putting it underneath our camera =\

Hey guys do you think it'd be okay to pull the flowering ladies out n leave them under regular light bulbs in the room until I get the tent set up? I think they're just cfl bulbs in there? Didn't know if that'd be stressful to have them under such low light for the last hour of the photoperiod...?

They'll be just fine go for it

I think I fucked up pretty bad lol...Idk if u can see in the back gg #1s all droopy - I tripped with that bitch in my hands n put a bunch of pressure right at the base of the stem like a retard :X guess we will see how bad it really was by tomorrow. Luckily that stem is really thick ... ?

 

[GroErr]

Shit but not to worry if it didn't break through you're good. I accidentally bent the main stalk a bit too much on one of the 2Gal PPP fillers I have about 2 weeks into flowering and it recovered fine, got a big knot where the bend was and just kept on going. Don't usually super-crop in flowering just to avoid any stress and possible hermies but these things can take a beating. It does look stressed, just make sure if it's cracked bad that you give it some support/tape until it heals and it should be good.

There wasn't any crack or snap or anything it , just felt like I pushed it really hard, n then all the leaves got all droopy. I'm thinking I mighta broke off some roots or something. The stem itself never bent or drooped, its still standing tall lol. All the pressure was right where the base of the stem meets the medium :/

So are you saying you feel like you might have separated the trunk from the roots or something like that? I'm always suprized at the abuse and accidents these plants can recover from. I seem to drop a plant every week or two at least, but I have never dropped one with the pressure being where you described it. You might kinda scoop your soil away from the base of the stalk and see if you can see any separation of the two parts to know if you need to perform some sort of surgery or something. At the very least put 3-4 bamboo or plastic poles/sticks around the bottom and use string to hold it up straight till it heals.

I'll save it lol, but it was a rough hit

I don't think I separated the whole root system but it got stressed out for sure....just pissed her off, she'll still put out after I put the Mack down for the next couple months

Lool. Ran outa time so I'll check it out n the morning...Really wanted to get some lst done..they got a little bend left in the colas. Can't wait to see em fill out

 

[GroErr]

Sounds like it should be fine, just prop her up, get some support for it while it heals. Amazing what these plants can take, they're really hard to kill. I should know, first couple of runs indoor for me I dropped equipment on them, burned them, they still survived

Ouch - your lights fell on em?? One of my worst fears is a bulb exploding in the tent when I'm not home - when I first started growing those autos I didn't think about it, and was foliar feeding without damaging the bulb being a concern in my head...read a couple horror stories of that leading to little holes / fractures n the bulbs n causing them to blowup lol. Idk how common that is but how shitty would it be to find a shredded tent n a fucked up photo period sitting at home after work :/

 

[ayr0n]

Well she looks a lot better this morning...Tops are still a little cooked from being damn near touching the light in the other tent, but she'll bounce back in the next couple days..


The SBA is kicking out flowers the quickest - I'm not sure if that's an indicator that she'll finish faster or not but it's making me curious about how long the GG's are actually gonna take to finish up. Might be in for a loong flower period on those 2 girls.


The ladies in their new house:

SBA:



I'm kind of omitting GG #3 for now (...just wait ) - she's the shortest of the 4, but definitely my favorite. Nice n bushy with what I consider a good structure for indoor growing...she's getting pungent, n starting to frost up on the fans - can't wait to see what the bud formation / growth is like on that one - pretty sure this will be my keeper if the potency is there. Still planning on hitting a gg3 cut with gg2 pollen in the future. I'm not raising GG #3 up yet to be even with the other girls cuz I want her to stretch just a little more

 

[ayr0n]

Oh I forgot to mention, the Critical Sensi Star hasn't been trained at all - I was curious to see what the outcome would be of completely leaving it alone n letting it form it's natural structure. Up until now I haven't ran a plant that I didn't fuck around with at least a little, lst, topping etc...It's pretty clear already that not doing any training is fairly inefficient as far as your space and getting the most out of your light - Guess that's just common sense, but I at least wanted to see what they did without human intervention.
