Thanks Barbie.

I'm seeing hairy buds beginning to emerge and tricombs starting to form on leaves... I'm so excited to see the description of this plant from the breeder come to life!
Pictures to come on the next watering... or sooner if I'm so inclined.

your doing a great job so far bro just get the hangtime right ok we cant have the same problem as last time lets keep it moist ok bro.
it looks like a mini rain forest in there lol.

 

[TheRuiner]

I know some of these are incredibly blurry, I did the best I could with what I had at the time. Buds are forming, things are looking good on all fronts.... nothing major to report, good or bad.

You just missed the real update bro, I think we had problems beyond just the hang time before, and I'm talking about problems on your end too homes.

Regardless, I'm doing much better this time, I set myself up for disaster last time, but therein was also a crash course in cultivation...
last time was one of the largest and longest flowering plants in the cannabis world, this time its a fast finishing medium size group of gals.... that have a much more expected and pungent oder. I can't wait till you see/smell this.
Wish me luck on my cure this time.

 

[Stoner.Barbie]

good luck bro, i bet she smells fantastic.

7.2 PH of my R/O water with 9ppm - that filter change did wonders

Things are moving fast inside this tent... I can't wait to do another pic update soon because I have leaves that are growing buds out of them! I've never seen anything like this before, I know it probably means a genetic mutation or something but extra bud, expectable! Also, a couple branches keep getting to close to the light so the leaves have taken on a yellowish pattern, I think it's just heat because they are in the center middle getting the most heat/light and the rest of the plant looks fine. I hate to have to tie her down, I think that bud will end up being a monster if I let it go strait up... we'll see what hight permits.

TR - it's starting to look like a forest in there... wew hew!!

Ohh my goosshhhh, does it ever... *drool*

TR - it's starting to look like a forest in there... wew hew!!

Complete with Lions and Tiger and Bears, Oh my!



I don't want to look like a liar so here it is, before the leaf buds get enveloped by the rest of the bud and you can't tell them apart, leaves growing bud and hair right out of its center,.. wild.

Also here's most of the rest of the gang and my undercarriage ... so I'm guessing loosing lower growth is pretty normal when light penetration is so low, right?

 

[Stoner.Barbie]

thats trippy man! and yes it is normal. you can even pull those suckers off down on the bottom too if you want.

I had to take a few more large fan leaves down tonight as well... I can hardly stand to cut them if they are still healthy enough to hang on, I just try to clean them up real fast and not let anything clearly on its way out stick around for very long.

I watered with the 2nd half of the brew tonight and got good run off, the girls should be good for a few days unattended, I can not wait to see what awaits... oh and i had to raise the light again as well.
I pulled the plant nannys out of two pots, I'll be around enough to not need them again anyway. Afterwards I filled these root lined holes full of a mixture of earthworm castings, black kow, and the left over mostly bad guano in the bottom of the bucket from the tea brew. If they respond well I might do it too the other two.

 

[Stoner.Barbie]

what is that thing? do you put it in the soil and then put water in it to drain into the soil slowly?

 

[Snafu1236]

lol yeah never seen a plant nanny before

They are made for watering over extended periods, in case you travel a lot like me. If I know I'm going to be gone a few days past watering I'll just put an appropriate sized bottle into a special plastic insert that threads onto the bottle and then set it in upside down. Water is drawn from the bottles as the soils dampness is used by the plant.

I just don't plan on leaving in the next 6 weeks so I thought, 'this is just root space wasted right now.' I figured why waste a perfect tunnel right into the plants world, I hope they like the ingredients I filled them with!

there's a screen in there too believe it or not, its a hybrid screen of low stress trained green - a hsolstg. lol



PS ~ I think the girls loved the deep soil treatment, next brew, some of it is going into the other plant nanny holes that are still full of nanny.

 

[Stoner.Barbie]

"still full of nanny" tha tkinda sounds bad. hahaaaaa or i just have a dirty mind.

 

[Snafu1236]
