Hey zibra. Dad checked out alright. Cancer has not spread to his bones. He still has some radiation to deal with, but all should be well. With that dealt with, I just have to worry about his heart and diabetes. He needs to lose at least 60 pounds. But that's another thing.

About the foliage, it scares me when leaves are resting on each other. I don't know if you've ever seen it, but when my closet gets super full (before I go on a pulling spree) the leaves rest on one another and build up an insane amount of water between them. I will open the door and there are puddles on the table of water that dripped from the leaves. I'd say there could be as much as a liter of water if you collected it all from all the leaves. That is BAD. I remedy that quick.

Otherwise if it's just a lot of leaves... that's fine. I am of the belief that leaves are the power plant (as in engine) of the plants... and having as many leaves as possible will grow nice fat, beautiful buds. I really don't notice anything 'better' about the buds in full light vs. the ones that get no light at all. I've seen people who pull almost all the fan leaves off. To me that's crazy, I mean to each his own, but it just don't add up. I don't think a plant would grow all that foliage if it wasn't a good thing for the plants health.

Only bummer about it is you guys have no idea how many buds are in the closet.
Shoot a quick video once in a while man. We can all see em' then :eyesmoke:

This round I don't have any fans blowing directly on the plants... just that little muffin fan pushing the air around a tiny bit. My issue with fans going right on the plants is the collection of dust and hair on the buds they hit first. Drive me insane.

I'm sure though that I am hurting yeild by not doing this and the plants ability to transpire (i think that's the word) goes down a lot when there isn't air blowing to exchange the moisture and stale air beneath the leaves.

I have PM-o-phobia.
In my lil closet that happens to me as well.
The under door current draws all the impurities in. I am working on some sort of filter for the door gap.

Jig those girls got some nice frost on them already for 5 weeks man. I got the bulk of my equipment today. If you guys need a decent online store east west hydro had some pretty solid prices on equip and the shipping was quick (2 days). They don't carry Canna which was sucked since I'm trying to grow in coco. See the equipment at the door was like an early Christmas. hahah.

Nice set of gear right there smooth.

Bassman, I have a screen/ filter thing over the opening, and it gets most of the stuff, but not everything. I'll shoot a video for you guys. The reason I don't anymore is the 1k hps. I can't shoot a video with anything I have that comes out with the light on. So I have to turn it off.... then it's a matter of how to light the closet and have you be able to see anything. I'll do what I can. ( i sure can sound like a little girl sometimes)

Today makes 5 full weeks of 12/12. So 35 days I guess. I'm thinking of starting to harvest at 9 weeks up to 10 weeks. I'm trying to make this some heavy smoke.

Anyone have any ideas on the subject. I've never ran the dog past 8 weeks. It's leathal then... I know some of you guys run it 10 weeks! It's still good then? Been a while since I took anything over 8 weeks really.

Video being uploaded.

Thanks bro. I'm actually wishing things were a little farther along than they are. But trying new things this grow, so changes are to be expected. Part of me wonders if this isn't a different cut of Dog Kush than I'm used to. The leaves look a little more sativa than normal, and the buds are smaller than I'm used to as well.

I will take it though. The stink is seriously unbelievable.

That's cool mate. She says "when's jig coming by again to smoke another bong" lol. I love it.

the plants already look like they are epic!
Thanks Jim, there's always room for more though :)
room looking good jig,fat dog nugs,and them bananas:weed:
Thanks G, I'm really looking forward to seeing how this batch turns out. The banana's look tasty. I might take a tiny batch early at 7 weeks to have some nice smoke (I'm basically out of weed at the moment)... and leave some to go 10 weeks. I've never let the banana go more than 9.

had some of the best times as a kid scrumping apples, or anything else we could get our scrumpy little mits on, lol. Funny, cause we had two apple trees in our garden (we even dug them up and took them with us when we moved house, lol), but it wasn't as much fun as scrumping some......
