I have a feeling it's going to just keep getting more and more insane. And my good planning skills, just figured out when harvest time is, 8 weeks of 12/12 will be Jan 31. That would be fine except I'm due to be out of town for 10 days around Jan 21-31. Uhhhhhhhhh.... anyone want to come house sit for about 10 days in January? :)

It's official.

I should have listened to you GHB. The closet is a fucking mess. It's cool though, not complaining, just pretty amazed at the amount of plant in my closet. If things actually go all the way to harvest I should have a shit ton of buds. At this rate though I think the plants are going to take over control and possibly harvest me come Jan.

Will get pics and a video up in a bit. I'm working on tying them back at the mo.

Talk about a fucking jungle. You can call me George.

Here's a shot before I begin.

and here's a pic from the other day answering your question doc... i pulled this stuff in one session. I've probably had 4 or 5 sessions like this one. A couple of them I pulled more than shown here. Shown, that's a funny word I don't know I've ever used before. It doesn't even seem like a real word now, but spell checker ain't giving me shit. Of course spell checker just let me write ain't... so not sure how much I trust spell checkers english. Sorry spell checker, I will not capitalize english as long as you think ain't is a word. Ain't ain't a word.

They don't look to have stretched too much either jig. Reminds me of my first grow (the jungle). Did you take the lights down just to get in there?

Yeah, i take them all down to get in to work. It's too tight without them in... with them in it's just impossible. It's a good thing im skinny.

I just toss them in the trash. it's a shame i know, but I just like growing buds. I could probably root them and sell them to somewhere.

he needs to see the SourD grow jig
And by this I am either guessing you are making a joke, or you mean a different strain. My sour D grow was the first soil run where from the 4 plants I vegged for like 2 months I got maybe 3 oz from a 1000w.

My sour Kush grow was the first in the 2 level tube system. I got 20 oz from that one.

Then there was my casey jones grow with the 2 big manorah plants. I got 14 oz from a 400 hps & 250 mh.

Hehehe, I was thinking about doing this with a Single Plant around a 1000w Cooltube? Well actually, my original intention was to do it around a CFL for Kicks, but with the New Space and All? WooHoo!



I just LOVE ya'lls different Growing Styles!

Peace

i've been doing this for years; cutting off perfectly healthy vegetative matter. just don't let uncle ben catch you (you know he trolls riu like a prison warden).

sooner or later it becomes fluffy scraggle that nobody wants, so better to remove it now BEFORE it becomes an issue.

that closet is damn full, i honestly thing you could top 20 oz in there if they can flower anything like a hid light.



oh and...................i told you so!:dunce:

Yeah uncle ben would have a heart attack if he saw the stuff I cut off. I always feel like putting a warning label on pics like that for folks who thing pulling is a sin. They must near faint to see all the vegetation.

Took me the better part of the day yesterday, but I beleive things are pretty well sorted. I am hoping they are done stretching, so I won't have to keep tying things back. If so, I think things are set. Just buds now. There was removing of the final 'clones' or little branches that haven't lived up to what I thought they should. Honestly while pulling stuff off the plants I had visions of scientific experiments to find what really works and what doesn't. Ah man, one day I may just get wild on folks. I could write a book.... How to train and trim your MJ plants for maximum yield. I bet UB doesn't buy a copy.

I also scooted the lights 'back' and twisted them a little. What I mean is I moved the board the lights are on 2" closer to the door... so I scooted it away from the back plants... they were getting a little fried. Because it is 'back' from the center now of the side plants I angled the lights on the sides to aim back at the plants they used to be right in front of. It's great this way and acutally what I had imagined when I started things. Instead of the lights being 3 sides of a box, they are more like 3 sides of a trapazoid. And it's great because the light nearly overlaps from the 3 lamps. Previously there were dark spots in the corners where the lights didn't 'spread' to. Now they are angles and shining back there, really everywhere there is plant.

I took video before I put the lights in... will upload in the morning. I'll also snap some pics of the different light set up.

It's 2:10 am here. Been up since 1. Baby woke up crying like she was hungry... I go to get some milk and she's asleep again... only problem is I'm wide awake. :) I'm sure she won't wake up again till I pass back out.
