Hey Jizmatica
loving the attitude. Get those momas grown :)
NL won't be a problem but the TSS will need to be planned out before you grow them. They have very long flower times and will need at least 14 weeks, prolly 16 to do their thing. That is a long time to control them for, but it could be done. I grow 8 week strains to maturity in a corner of a pc case!

Dunno if you like anagrams. You might like these:
shuffle - agents of chaos
to get - chosen as fagot
or - case shaft goon

How unfortunate is that? :)

haha, love it.

like i say i did no seed research on my TSS cos they were freebies, but 14 - 16 weeks :O they really are going to be massive. im sure we will see how it goes, even tho i am a little apprehensive now

I had no time yet to research the bonsai techniques yet (will do more this weekend), but I'd imagine root clipping combined with constant pruning and light proximity will be along the lines of where you need to go.

In order to assist you with this, I'm trying to eliminate one of the 3 servers in my house via consolidation to free up a dedicated "sativa only pc case". I am going to attempt to grow one of my TSS seeds a bit behind yours, if I can get to it and do some insane twine training against the wall and bottom of the case. So, picture this.. out of the planter, over the lip, down to the floor and around as much as I can. I will need to clip twine at harvest like an SOB, I'm certain, but damnit, I love sativa feel, so I'm really gonna give it a go. The only thing I'm really scared of is that cola. I haven't seen pics of it, but if it's anything like a Thunderfuck cola, we're boned. ATF / MTF colas are about the size of a pc case when grown outdoors. Of course, CFL may work in our favor, too. The plant just won't grow as well.. which we want! :)

Get that fucker close to the lights, bro! Rock!

Thanks ER, yesterday i re planted all of my plants in the same tub but so the stem was in the soil, now there only about a 1cm tall, i put them really close to the lights and then my NL started to go yellow again, im a little worried about using nutes too early its only been a week.

the first pic shows the damage and the rest are just normal pics to get an idea of hight.

That yellowing does not look like N deficiency, to me. That looks more like thirst or minor root damage due to transplant. Water it and dont stress on that just yet.

Looks like it touched the bulb to me. It looks like it was there a while cos that leaf seems to be bending away from the burnt spot.

the yellowing was the same as before, so i went on what other people said, it was quite high. its lowered now though. i have no more yellowing now, so all is good :)

the only way to do that is to say fuck all with those shit sativas and grow indica autoflowers. and not the big ones like, LR or LR2. but i have noticed alot of people on this site like to waste time and energy.
we will see wont we, just come back in 8 weeks time and we will see what i got

Here we go, the moment all (not many) of you have been waiting for PICTURES :)

right i dont know why i have been so lazy not to do new pic but it is week 3 and i cant belive how big the NL looks

like i have said before i have done a little LST all looking good apart from one of my leaves was touching the plug that supplies my fan which gets hot which did a good job at burning my leaf.

my times are current 18/6 and will be for a week until 12/12 and hopefully we will start seeing some hairs

the first pic is of the TSS which is nice and short there with a lighter in the background



now the my NL 1st pic is a view just to get an idea of hight.



a view of the top canopy with my lighter poking through :)




a pic b4 LST



and after



it does look shorter and after a day or so when the leaves move round it will be shorter still.

i dont know if these hights a good/bad but it all looks quite bushy so i think it must all be good.

oh and a little thanks to ER, he knows why :) + rep

Thanks, bud! I'm still stoked for the TSS! Recently, I decided to just scrap the cloning idea because I want to try other strains! :) If I get a strain I love, I'll clone it persistantly, but there's no reason not to try a bunch of stuff, if you ask me. :) That being said, my 1st TSS is slated for 12/12 in mid-july. That should make it ready for harvest in December. That's approximately when the wife can resume her passion for puffin', as well. Perfect gift! Really.. don't forget that from the first sign of hairs on the TSS, you got about 14 weeks and Sativas are said to triple in size during flower. Keep that in mind, man. You may want to start that 12/12 sooner, rather than later. You'll be done w/ the NL by the time the TSS is good to go. :)

Great work here, by the way.

:confused: something wierd and wonderful has happended, as i took a little peak at my baby, i did waht i usually did took (hopefully) her out, sat her down checked the leaves checked it for its LST making sure thats all fine, then as i was putting it back i noticed some green in the pot ?????????????? i took a closer look and found that the light is making sproutling come from thw roots, i was amazed as i can now harvest clones with roots no trouble i found about half a dozen and decided i wanted a few to i got my NL took it out of the plastic pot shook of the soil, picked off the new sproutlings, planted 4

3 - in lights, my future clones
1 - in darkness to see how long it can last out side my computer case

has any one else found this, or even used them. i cant think for any reason that they will not be a clone.

not the conventional way but if it does to jobs no complaints :)

its been ages since ive spoke on this, exams make it difficult for finding spare time, just looked at the pic that are above and it looks tiny compared to how big it is now. LST is going great, still no sign of flowering, ive been on 12/12 for about 2 weeks and the plant is 5 weeks old.

well bye for now, pics coming soon

Sorry for the NL, mon frer. Good thing is that you've got that TSS, which, if it's same as mine, an Attitude freebie, is FEMINIZED! :)

Pic of the TSS? Also.. I am doing a TSS 12/12 from seed as soon as I'm back from my July vacation. :)
