Sorry to see you out of the competition foreverflyhi but I'm glad to hear your still around and safe.

Now we just need to locate Gas. it appears he hasn't been around here (or other forums) for five days now. I hope everything is ok with him.

Sorry to see you drop out also Fly, I hope you do post pictures so we can see how your efforts with LST on your party cup go. Know how it is with the jobs and GF situation.

Happy Growing!!

Today was maintenance day... So some quick hits...

I selected Bagseed #1 & #2 as my last two entries. Along with the Super Haze I am at my three entry limit now.

I decided to continue growing #3 in a larger pot just to see the yield difference.
So... Bagseed #3 got a new home! X-Planted to a 2G Smart pot. Bitch is living large now!


I also checked in on the male (The contestant formally known as bagseed #4) and he went all peter north up in that bitch.


I didn't expect this so soon. I'd like to get some pollen to save for future breeding's. I'm guessing now would be a good time to harvest those bananas?

I misplaced my camera this weekend but meant to withdraw regardless. I can't seem to keep anything alive atm and I'm starting to think it's just the heat which I have no means to manage. Right now we're at 107 outdoors which is ~115 in my garage with the doors open and higher with them closed which is what I think got to those four in the tub while I was gone - hot water to the roots. I'll keep watching though as you guys are rocking the solo cups.

Here they are today but I'm thinking I might bring them into the house to reveg - might as well try and keep the genetics around for when it cools down a bit.

 

[Psychonaughtical]

Floooooooooowering! Hiyah!

Sorry, excitement out of the way. I'm sorry to hear about it Gastanker, all things must pass and such. I'm sure you'll find a way to combat the heat.

Foreverflyhi all I can say is, women. Fuck eh. Two jobs is easy compared to making a girl happy, but all three. My heart goes out to you.


On that note, the stretch has begun and the plants are still bushy as all hell. I cannot wait to see what happens when my little three incher that looks likes it's wearing a moo moo starts to stretch and all those nodes fill in!

Progress!

 

[foreverflyhi]

Damn that sucks gas tanker. It's been high 90s during day and mid 80s at night. My grow tent runs at 86-89 with full spectrum. Crazy fucking weather this world is going thru

 

[Endur0xX]

So 5 of you guys still in line to win the new AF-150! Mine are starting to look really good!! I just transferred my least favorite in the room under the AF-600, it was best to separate them, they were starting to fight!!

I have a potentially HUGE bud forming (crossing my fingers) under the AF-600... the plant had been a runt in the corner of the room until I put the AF-600 in the room and harvested a couple plants, she is loving all this new light!! pics soon

 

[Amaximus]

Ahhhh. Suck! Sorry to see you're out Gas.
These temperatures really blow. Been a pretty constant 84-91 in my tent during the day. It's an everyday battle.

 

[Txchilies]

And I thought I had it bad, outdoor temps in the upper 90's to 105. And I'm able to keep my tent as high as 88 and able to drop it to 74, but my humidity levels just stay in the 50's which sucks butt.

 

[dank smoker420]

50's arnt bad. mine stay around 55-60 isnt normal somewhere around 50-70?

 

[Amaximus]

Bah! Son of a cock! The day after I decide to repot #3 because I have one too many females.... And BOOM! I find balls on #1.

So... I'm down to two entries... Super Haze & #2 (the little main liner)

I never should have x-planted #3...

 

[dank smoker420]

hey guys im wondering if any of you guys amend you own soil for your grows. i am interested in a 12/12 from seed based "super" soil

 

[Txchilies]

Amaximus other than makin a quick change with #3, you are still hittin the average for bag seed male to female ratio. Not sure what is goin on with my bag seed #1 but she cruling up like crazy, looks like I might lose her.

Yes, Dank a few people here do make their own super soil, or other medias like compost. Amendments are added directly or as needed. I'm into compost so I add everything under the sun.

nice tx. i am also in tx. i plan on mixing some soil today and a test. i have a mainly compost potting soil i plan on using it has about 5 different composts mixed in. i plan on adding: EWC, indonesian bat guano, bone meal, dolomite lime, epsom salt, and azomite. also a chopped up banana or two to add some extra K. than i will let it "cook" for a month or so than use it.

If you dont use a base soil mix like promix or roots organic, make sure to add perlite to your mix, you want good drainage even more so with leds.

 

[dank smoker420]

^ yeah i plan on adding perlite but didnt know if i should during the cooking of the soil so i left it out and will mix it in as i use it. its good that i didnt i only made a 1/2 cuft in a 5 gallon and it was pretty full probably would of over flowed with the perlite.

 

[Txchilies]

So it looks like I'll start Update #7. Well no real change other than my bag seed #1 lookin like crap. But happy to report that my Pineapple Chunk and Mystery Seed are bushin out.

 

[Endur0xX]

As usual, I will until Sunday in case they get bigger overnight!! I really like what I am doing so far I hope I dont fuck it up!! one plant isnt that great but the other is very healthy and beautiful.

 

[Amaximus]

Dark, dreary, rainy morning here. Nice and cool though. I wanted to toss the girls into the hps tent for a few mins just to take photos but I had this feeling that I might've gotten my head ripped off from the led police so these are the photos ya get!

Super Haze: This bitch is a monster and just keeps on stretching.


Bagseed #2: This one is bushing up nicely.


Bagseed #3: No longer in the competition since she was x-planted but figured I'd toss a picture up anyway.
