heyo CD. I have been keeping track but not really had the time to post. I put the sand on top of my soil, got a fly trap, and watered with a little bit of insecticidal soap to kill most the gnats. They still never fucking died off completely. ... bastards.

thanks jf!! well, heres the bad news, i planted 1-1 behind where i was working yesterday, today, i get the bad news i've been laid off, this really sucks!! i should be able to slide in and out every now and then as theres an alley behind the row of shops and no one can see down the back of the buildings. as if my life wasnt fucked up enough with my hip and knee injury, now i lose a desk job i got a month ago. i installed carpet for just over 20 years and thats out for sure. im so pissed!! but yes, i will try to do an update on her here and there.

Man sorry to hear about your job. On the positive side, I think you will be shocked how rapidly that plant grows outdoors if it's getting a lot of direct sunlight. Don't be surprised to get 6-8 ounces or more out of her. I hope she's in a safe spot!

day 43, the girls are doing good, but 2-1 keeps doing this (see pic) with some of her leaves. they look like mutant leaves, i dont think its heat, its only 82 in there and they are half way down the plant. 2-2 shows no sign of this, and both plants are getting the same nute juice. plus the leaves are still bright green?

What does the top of the soil look like on 2-1? Does it look the same as 2-2? I have read if the top of the soil looks old and crusty or hard or chunky soil you may have a salt build up. Maybe flush her out a little and see if That helps. How's your water, u use bottled don't u? It doesn't look like heat stress cause there is no discoloration or browning, and the leaves aren't sagging. I have seen it before but don't remember the cause.

hey gumball, the soil is the exact same in both pots, i water everyday, both plants the same amout. i use only rain water which ph'ed at 6.2 with nutes. ive done evrything the same way as the first grow, but i have 2 plants instead of 1. they are 2 different strains tho and 2-1 was topped twice but i missed where-as 2-2 had 2 toppings and it worked fine. everything is the same for both plants. thanks for your intrest.

Didn't see you gott laid CD, I am sorry to hear that. You should try to work in the garden section at lowes or home depot, but prolly not good for your hip or knee. You will bounce back, and u have your own garden to keep u sane!

yeah, thanks man, this year has been the shits!! LoL. everything but my grows and that is whats keeping me sane. i am starting to walk without the sticks now, mowed the grass yesterday, took a while, but i did it. just need to make it to november then i can go to work at the kennals down in sarasota when the season starts down there. i should be walking fine by then. first question on home depot's app is, can you pass a drug test, LoL. but i would love that too.

Anyone can pass a piss test with enough prep time. A week or 2 without, and a lot of water, and then a lot of electrolytes. But I hate piss tests too and try to stay away from them. There's a few good threads on what to use to flush with.

yeah, ive never had a job that i had to take one for, ive either worked at race shops or sub contract stuff with the carpet and wont have to for the kennal job either. i really love working with the dogs, greyhounds are so awesome. years ago, i did miss out on a job at miami rug because i failed a polygraph cause i didnt lie about doing ludes and smoking, LoL.

Looking good.
I've been trying to find a reason the leaves are acting up.
you water everyday so maybe they could use a few dry periods.
Have you checked the runoff ph when you water?

no, i havent checked run off in a while, it goes in at 6.2 with nutes and its only the plain soil with no additives, when i did before, it was the same. both plants are very heathly except for that. both plants get the same water/nutes from the same jug with just a T splitting it for the 2 plants. the other plant looks perfect, so im just not sure what it is, but it doesnt seem to be affecting the buds forming in any way.

so today is day 47 and i had went racing over the weekend and i watered them friday morning when i left and then today around noon. they are still looking great, bright and green and the bud sites are looking real good. heres some pics and a couple close ups of the leaves. its not bugs, its not heat, and it doesnt appear to be really hurting anything. so i dont know what the deal is.
