Yes! I got that message....glad I could help :) Did you have that big of a gnat problem? I got about 10 or so during the 7 week veg in my sticky traps....and already 2 or so in the flower room.....but I have good air movement on the plants and the humidity is fairly low.
I just opened the tent and found two of the bastages. They are the first I've seen since the treatment. I am going to spray the top of the coco with the goGnats! this evening, and pyrethrin their asses when the lights go out.

Hey Ab,

Man that bagseed looks like a big ole donkey dork.

Your going have to find one of those great big Cheech and Chong papers dude, and just roll the whole thing up.bongsmilie

Then pass it this way.

It has done pretty well, and I think I still have 4 more weeks of flowering..... I'm shooting for elephant dork.

I'll roll it up before we meet for lunch.

nice grow, can't wait to see the finished product!!!!!subscribed!!!!!
Thanks for stopping by mafia. I've made a few mistakes on my first grow, but I think I've fixed most issues pretty quickly. I'm getting pretty anxious for the finished product too. :weed:

I'm hoping it turns out I can cut them on New Years Eve and ring in the New Year properly with my new bubble hash bags.bongsmiliebongsmiliebongsmiliebongsmiliebongsmilie

Because you had the bad luck male thing, you are cordially invited to my first harvest. I have a new bong and bubble bags arriving for the event. I hope you know how to trim up a plant, because I have no fucking idea how to do it........

Get your fem PPP's in the dirt!

I dont have a clue how to trim up a plant. Maybe I should visit after the harvest and curing so you can give me a demo!

I am making some adjustments to my grow area over the holiday and will try again. Thanks for your support during these troubling times!:weed::weed:

OK I'll share my tore-up buds with you afterwards. Maybe you can use your smoking experience to help me be sure my cure is running properly.

Your luck was just bad on the last grow. All males! How the hell does that happen? While I get 4 fems from pure blind luck.

I feel karma is gonna swing your way on the next grow. :joint:

Thanks for the encouraging words! I dont know what happened on the last grow with all the males but I am pretty sure that I did something to mess it up. Between vegging with red lights, letting my temps get up to 107, and down to 59, burned leaves, not testing the soil ph, using too much super thrive,.............the list goes on!

I bought Seemore Buds book "buds for less" last week and have read it twice. I also got a book by cervantes that is pretty good. So hopefully I will have a few more tools to help me get some big beautiful frosty dank ass buds like yours! :hump::weed:

Look at it this way. All the Nirvana fem seeds I cracked turned out female. You have Nirvana fem PPP. The setup you have now has been tested, and you know where the problems occur. In addition, you write a good journal, and you have quite a few people following it. It is always easier when you have extra sets of eyes on the grow.

You did not have all of these advantages when you started the previous grow. bongsmilie

I've heard some good things about Nirvana fem's lately. All things being equal, if you simply provide the genetics with very good conditions, it should turn out to what it's supposed to be - female. Hell, I let my 3 week veggies go without water for 2 days pretty much - they looked like they were dead...completely wilted - but here I am in week 1 of flower and I've seen no balls whatsoever, even tho it's early. Take care of your babies and they will take care of you!

Ordered some bubble bags and a bong from EDIT on November 12th, and I received a pretty beat up box yesterday the 21st. Even though the box itself was beat up, the glass items were well wrapped:



And best of all, no damage!

4 piece small bubble bag, and Weed Star Mahoney Ice 2:



The bags are only 1 gallon, but I will have trim from a maximum of 4 plants.

I took the pics yesterday, but I decided to try out the bong before uploading them to RIU. For some reason, I couldn't figure out how to do the upload afterwards..... :bigjoint:

I'm very happy with the way the bong smokes, but I can't figure out why they put a carb on it when the bowl is easily removable.... I'll plug it up some time soon.

I started germinating my seeds two months ago today. Here's some updated pics from just after lights out. The buds seem to be filling in nicely, and they have 5 more weeks to go! :bigjoint:



Tallest cola:

You can see some of the light damage in the foreground.

Different cola:


Some buds:




I'm disappointed with the close ups. The plants are much more sugary looking in person.......

I tied up a couple of the center buds that were closest to the light so there would be less of a light burn issue. One of the buds was already moving toward the light only 2 hours later.

Thanks for taking a look.

I decided to get rid of some of the lower branches on my plants. They were still well below the canopy top, and were showing weak growth.

Here's the aftermath:
