[DST]

havent smoked a stoge all day!...not easy to quit after so many years of smoking!...anyone here quit smoking buts after so many years of smoking?!?

Do you mean cigarette? or Cigar?? I use to smoke cigs when I was a big drinker, but just quit after I realised what a waste of time it was, plus I had my wife, my Mum, and my Gran on my back about it....blerry women, haha.

rocklock 2 weeks of 12/12

this is one of two of the grapegods i re-veg'd for 3 weeks and put right in 12/12 soon as i seen new growth

(chemdawg 91 x mass superskunk/nl) x (og x sour diesel) topp*

the start of 12/12

the start of flowering two weeks later......

Nice re-veg G!!!! Always on top of things bru.

This Cutting was gifted to me as Lemon Kush... Its 4 weeks into 12/12 and its turning purple?? Who knows what it is but it sure does look dank

Nice looking plant, ptone!!!

Oh the green green grass of Wally's cab!!!

I just finished a grow with two gallon smart pots, love em'. DST, you asked if smart pots and air pots are the same thing, they aren't. Smart pots are a felt like material, the air pots are those things with knobs on the sides if I'm not mistaken. I got a ten pack of three gallon smart pots from htg supply, thirty bucks plus shipping. I'm using them for my next sativa grow. My casey jones and my headband I started in half gallon grow bags and then cut the bottoms out after a few weeks and transplanted them into two gallon smart pots. Casey has grown so nicely since the new room to grow she burned one of her leaf tips on the light yesterday. I would recommend them to anyone who uses soil. It's a miserable day here today, hot and humid but a cool down is coming through. Going to go from eighty five to forty degrees.

Cheers for that. I wonder if anyone this side of the pond does em?!?!?

How far from the cooltube was this plant? None of mine have shown any tendencies like that yet except for the autos but even they aren't as one sided as that. They're really just leaning towards the lights like Raspberry but still have quite a bit of growth and budsites on the back.

That was around 4 inches away...was very close to the MH bulb as well due to its positioning and height. Don't worry, your plants will be like that eventually!!!

Hey dudes in here and ladys of course...So i was wondering, i got myself up to 600w hps power for 2 plants, one ak one widow...Is it wiser to get one 600w and grow with that, or do like i have done..i have couple of 70w hps lights, and couple of 150 w hps lights that sum up to 600w total...i have them all around my grow area....so what u think is better, one 600 watter or many hps lights all around the plants ???I myself like my current setup, because my lighting is everywhere...

Like HeadsUp said, depends on the lumens. Can you give us a full breakdown of exaclt what you run?

Northern Lights x Skunk is so easy to grow even a caveman could do it (if he had about $2000 bucks worth of hydro gear and lights and a a fair amount of sorry experience, that is)

Sweet bru. So we'll call ya Shank then, hehe.

Ah yes, the old I forgot strain. Not to worry, I've grown more than a few, who knows, strains.

Grow space, now that's a good question, but I have to go with one six hundred. I understand you have your plant surrounded with lights, the question, how many lumens are actually hitting your plant when it reaches it? A six hundred overhead and there is no guessing if your plant is receiving enough light. That's just my thinking and it could be completely wrong, it wouldn't be the first time.

Genuity, as usual they look great, ho-hum, another perfect grow in the process.

shnkrmn, what's up with the moniker? Where are the vowels? Every time I look at one of your posts my mind gets hung up on trying to pronounce your name. I would like to buy an E. Anyway, your babies are also looking great, you too wally. We sure do have a nice collection of healthy girls going. I'll add some pics tomorrow, casey jones and headband will be five weeks old and all my clones will have been flowering for a week.

Haha, I had the very same thought...

LOL. I must have been high when I signed up here. I had a wee golfing problem at the time, no doubt. Just call me Shank, heheh. Wally, those plants look very happy.

This thread has the best fresh porn.

Fresh porn...yum yum!!

hey dudes , soo much to catch up on, everybody's children look absolutely great. im inspired

anyone ever open up the indoor growing forum, thinkin you clicked the 600 club thread? then try to navigate and see 1800 pages? i always think damn! you guys talk alot!

so here is round 2, im fixing to grow some big bushes, approx 8 gallon pots with a 2 month veg, here is before and after the 1 1/2 week flowering stretch , purple kush

before, who likes bonzai? lol the one in the back was stunted due to low ph from vegging so long in peat mix, im new to this but learning

still have many more lights to hang and to skin it, suggestions?

Panda, less hassle than mylar imo....

much better!! to skin it id say panda film will probs be best unless you can get sheet ing of really thick mylar

Def improvement bru.

Well the sun is out here, but it's like Minus god only knows....bloody cold, my outdoor tap ahs frozen up, and my greenhouse is now an dice house....happy days.

Hope all are doing well.

Peace out,

DST

 

[wally nutter]

lolol thanks there DST

im gunna have bud shots in no time!! O JOY!

 

[duchieman]

havent smoked a stoge all day!...not easy to quit after so many years of smoking!...anyone here quit smoking buts after so many years of smoking?!?

10 years this month after 23 years of a pack a day. One of my greatest accomplishments. One craving at a time is what it boils down to. Good Luck GG.

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

yeah i quit after 9 years, best thing i ever did. was 4 days of living hell mind. ive never come off smack but i can imagine it being something similar. no sleep/ sweats/ blind rage. drinking to sleep. one word of advice, unless you actually want to quit dont even bother cutting down.

 

[grow space]

Ok manns, thanks for input..to elaborate my 600w hps power, i have 4 70w hps, and 2 150w hps, all covering my 2 plants, that were vegged for 2 months, they are in their 4 week of bloom....i dont have 600w, cas im missing 20 w , but i also got one fluro rack in there that is 112 w, one bulb warm, one blue, so we can call it 600w ok?! So thats my layout...Oh and i have heard that fluros kick in the thc production , and that if grown only with fluros, then the yield wouldnt be like with hps, but the thc production would be increased..have had couple of good members stating that, and i have only grown with fluros myself and result was pretty frosty indeed!!!!

 

[DST]

hey grow space, so by my calculation you have the following (without getting in PAR-) roughly:
2 x 150w = 2x 15,000 lumens = 30,000
4 X 70w = 4x 5,400 lumens = 21,600

Total from HPS = 51,600 lumens

Total from a 600w averages at 90,000 lumens.....

Hope that helps....

EDIT: Anyway, whatever you got, you are more than welcome to post away in the 600 thread...we have all sorts of combinations in here!!!

 

[Heads Up]

Thank you DST, let's not talk about par with the shank man around.

Well the cool weather has finally arrived. It's fifty six degrees and our high today is around sixty five. Tonight, dipping into the thirties. The next few days will be a repeat of today. Been home sick again all week. Just got rid of this blasted thing about a month or so ago and it's back. I actually went to the doctor this time around instead of sitting around suffering waiting for nature to take its course. Been taking the meds for two days and I'm actually starting to feel a bit better. Hopefully I can get one day of work in this week. One week into flower and all my clones are looking really good. Casey and headband are five weeks old today and they too are looking good. The headband is so compact I can hardly see the main stem and the casey for a sativa dominant plant is also very compact. One more week or so of vegging for them, take some cuttings and flower the moms.

cof, I wouldn't dare grow any on my property, although it would be very difficult to see it from the air. I have trees surrounding my property and the only way you could really see my back yard from a helicopter is to be right above it looking straight down and even then part of it would be blocked from the trees. My crazy vietnam vet buddy grows it in his back yard, he lives about a half mile away. I convinced him last night, I think, to not start any plants until june first. There is no need for them to be sitting outside from the beginning of april. All that does is give someone more time to see them.

Im so far behind on this thread, but figured I would chime in on this, Your friend should start them in april, considering they are going to start flowering in the middle to the end of July. At least they would if he starts them in april because they will be mature enough to start flowering when they are supposed to. Starting something later can cause you to be having the plant outside longer at the end than you want to, which is when the plant is most visible because all the leaves on other plants are falling off. Not to mention he will diminish his yield greatly by waiting that long to start them. To be realistic, probably cut his normal harvest in half. Of course this is if he is starting from seed, and isnt throwing a clone out that is already 2 ft tall, then everything I just said is probably irrelevant. Think about it though, just indoors, of the size of a plant vegged for 1 month, compared to 2 months when its time to harvest, but outdoors its a bit more, you would be cutting out 2 months of veg time, which is very significant, considering you are probably only going to get about 8 -10 hours of direct sunlight on your plants, unless you have it right out in the open. Do as you like, but I have been down that road, trying different starting times, and it always worked out the same, the sooner you start them, the better they are throughout the whole grow. If you are going to wait until June, I strongly suggest not starting from seed, and start with a clone, something that is already mature. Outdoors I usually see preflowers early July, then flowering starts middle to end of July, some strains will wait until the beginning of August. And if height is an issue, just like indoors, you can always, scrog, lst, or top. I know all about security issues outdoors, I live in a non medical state in the US, and have had state choppers right above my shit, but totally confident they couldnt see a damn thing.

 

[curious old fart]

Forty years of cigarettes and it took 3 weeks of a coma and 4 more weeks of hospitalization to quit...and that was over 4 years ago, and I still want one. Thank God for mj.

Outdoor, I'm planning on giving my vietnam vet buddy some sativas and he puts them in his back yard where they get sun a good bit of the day. I'll be starting the girls for him and taking cuttings for clones. By the time he puts them outside they should be at least a month old if not longer. If your timing is correct, they'll have two months of vegging before flowering. Thanks for the input.

Good to hear you helping your friend out with clones, I never grow sativas outdoors though, not here. You must be in a pretty warm climate, stay in the 50s and 60s into november where your at?

 

[Heads Up]

I need some help with foliar feeding, I know nothing about the subject. How often do you feed, at what strength do you foliar feed? Anyone who can help me out on the subject, it would be greatly appreciated.

It was eighty five yesterday, a high in the mid sixties today with lows in the thirties tonight. My golfing partner, who also happens to be another grower used to grow sativa years ago outside here and he said he would let them go into december until after the first frost. They say unless you are withing twenty degrees of the equator not to grow sativa outdoors, we're twenty seven degrees north of the equator, close enough for me. They should be long done before the really cold weather sets in here in florida.

 

[Heads Up]

My last sativa grow, which by the way was my first, my arjan's haze suffered through the whole grow. It was from lack of humidity, the air was way to dry for its liking. My next sativa grow, I'm going to get a cool mist humidifier and see if that helps the girls out. I have read some sativas like humidity in the sixty to eighty percent range, that scares me to death for an inside environment but is exactly what we have outdoors here in the summer. It's almost always hovering at one hundred percent humidity in the mornings during summer and daytime we still have humidity over fifty percent. Did I mention it's hot and humid in florida for most of the year?

Speaking of sativas, I think I finally have come to a decision about this next sativa grow. I was going to grow six plants doing some supercropping and lst'ing. Instead I think I'll do four plants and do them in ten gallon grow bags rolled down so they are not so deep but have lots of room to spread roots and do my scrog that I've been wanting to attempt. I'll have my plumber buddy help me build a frame out of pvc pipe that I can tie my fencing to for the scrog. I'll be using fencing with 2" x 4" openings. I'm thinking four feet wide by seven feet long, that should give me plenty of space for four plants to stretch out. I'm shooting for at least four ounces per plant, that's the goal.

Casey Jones and Headband, five weeks old today.

havent smoked a stoge all day!...not easy to quit after so many years of smoking!...anyone here quit smoking buts after so many years of smoking?!?

I smoked a pack or more cigs a day for 5 years and was blessed with the ability to quit. I tried many many times and one day woke up without the desire anymore. It was truly a blessing.

How many cat's you got over there? I saw two in the various pics you posted.

Also... beatiful plants from everyone. Too many to keep up with. Props!!!

Thanks mann..thats sucks, i always thought that 600w hps no matter one or multiple will have pretty much the same lumen output.Thats a pretty big lumen output difference and im pretty bummed ..But thanks again for opening my eyes dude..And yeah, if i get a change i post some ghetto pics in here...

I need some help with foliar feeding, I know nothing about the subject. How often do you feed, at what strength do you foliar feed? Anyone who can help me out on the subject, it would be greatly appreciated.

I think there are foods specifically for foliar feeding, but most veg foods will have directions for foliar feeding on the bottle. Its usually a weak mixture, how often, I dont know. I would think every time you spray, but I could be wrong. This looks like it could help some, dont mind them trying to get you to buy $200 worth of nutes in the process.
