Sorry about the delay, I got married and the last few weeks have been crazy.

Today I topped 2 of the 3 Sour Diesels using Uncle Bens topping method.
https://www.rollitup.org/advanced-marijuana-cultivation/151706-uncle-bens-topping-technique-get.html

I may have been a little late in my topping but I should still achieve 4 main colas using his method. Special thanks to Uncle Ben for giving out all the free info and taking abuse while doing it. I must admit I was worried about cutting all that plant material off even after doing it a few times to my Cindy clones. When I cut them they were about 12 inches tall and cutting at the 2nd node left about 4 inches or so left, it should be an interesting experiment.


Here are some pictures.....notice on the plant I didnt top that the growth at the nodes is very slow. This was the slowest seed to germ and it looks kinda funky...I will keep it going see what happens. Any ideas why this is happening?

Peace everyone!---Dg

I havent used any other breeders so I'm a bit biased. I can tell you that when I lived out west and grew all the Oregon and Cali strains from clone that they had nothing on Greenthumb. His stuff is at the top of the list from what I've grown before.

I transplanted 2 of the Diesels yesterday, here are some shots of the rootball. Notice the typical root spinout isnt there. This plant is not rootbound and looking healthy.
Microkote works!

how the plants doin?
They're doing good!
Plants # 1 and 2 are the ones I topped and they are starting to fill in and have vertical growth again. Plant # 3 is the one that took about 9 days to pop and it has very slow growth at the nodes still. Looks a little like a mutant. I'm going to transplant it today and put it into flower and see what happens...or I might just let it veg for awhile longer and see how it goes. I will post some picturs later.

Here are some shots from last night of plant #1. As you can see it has good vertical growth after being topped. This one is about 39 days old and I've noticed most of my plants show sex about day 43-46, so this is almost ready for flower.

Here is plant #3 at 30 days old...the slow and un-topped one. Please take a look at the nodes, they have just started pushing out branches and are way behind the others. anybody have an idea why it would grow so slowly? Should I put it into flower now or wait until the growth catches up a bit?


All plants have been transplanted into 5 gal pots that have been painted with microkote.

Hello everyone,

I'm building a new grow space and need help picking a paint color for my lounge. The space will have a veg room, flower room (both painted flat white) and a utility room and smoking lounge. I'm wondering what the best color would be to induce a state of peace and relaxation in my 10x 14 room? Any suggestions?
If you know of a brand and color name that would help too.

Thanks!

The clones taken from the SD plants have rooted in 12 days. When I topped the plants I used the top portion of the plant to make clones out of. 1 clone for each plant when i usually do multi cuttings of each in case of problems. Much to my relief all of them rooted so I will be able to pick a good mother when all is said and done.:(:???::-D
