I'm beginning to understand cloning and scrogging. I also see why hashplant should have registered to me as not hard tight nugs but likely fluffy, bushy easy to process buds. I've got pistils all over the 4 recently flipped and stripped clone plants. They are way healthier than the last 2...

Nothing amazing but this is the best my plants have looked in a couple runs. I think between the head injury and the gnats, I was really struggling. I can't believe how much basic growing stuff I was fking up. I totally forgot my soil recipes and pest treatments. I worked up my soil again then...

That CDLCx HbH is turning out a frost monster. Several folks I've talked too have said that theirs turned out some of the strongest Mephisto stuff they've grown. I would sure love to get that. Most who've grown it also say that the terps and smell are subdued. I can live with mild smell if I'm...

I will say that bottom watering and covering those drain holes has worked freaking wonders. I put a layer of nutes close to the bottom and it's worked. I bet that you could bottom water the nutes in in Pro-Mix and Coco without wasting much. I know I'll have to deal with the bastards again, but...

I've read about nematodes from a few folks now. They do sound promising and apparently inexpensive. I bet I wouldn't drown them with me watering from the bottom now. I've honestly not been seeing them since I pantyhose off the bottom drain holes too. Thanks Dog! I'm sure I'll have to deal with...

You know, it's silly but I never thought to check the potency of different dunks. I figured they were all similar I guess. But it makes perfect sense why it slaughtered them 1 time and the next time was a different pack/brand and meh results. I'm going to spring for the gnatrol and use the...

Bear Chillz day 30. I found a couple pistils today. This grow is an experiment in semi- hydroponics. I bought the Ph Perfect 3 part on sale almost 3 years ago but have always ran soil and I've heard horror stories about using it in soil. I've never used Pro-Mix either, but I got a bale cheap...

CDLCxHbH is ripening up. Day 53. It's covered in frost and there's still probably 3 good weeks left in it. It's leaning to the CDLC side by the look and smell. It smells like a Fruity Chem smell, but kinda subdued terpwise. The Bear Chillz in the middle is my first experiment growing completely...

My AoE turned out nice. They were alot like I imagined them to end up. The smell definitely went through stages. In mid flower it smelled sweet and fruity. Chop day it was much more earthy and hashy. Now after curing a few months, it has a deep rich smell. It's good smoke. Not quite as strong as...

Looks like a fine job you did there dude. I can't wait for the smoke report. Yes, it's a special time when you get it jarred up. Very satisfying seeing your hard work done. What are you running next?

So I wonder, if I do get some seeds off this thing, do I consider them S1's? Lol. Started my last Ripley's OG seed 2 days ago. I figure it'll be ready to plant today or tomorrow. Damn, I'm ready for more Ripley's. That and CDLC are always head thumpers.

Day 43 on CDLC x HbH. Yes I found 6 balls and pinched em. Found 2 missed balls 4 days later that were half open. Fk it. I don't care if I get a few seeds. Can't be many. This stuff is frosty already. Actually, for days. It's 3.5 ft tall and almost 3 ft wide. It smells like sour fruit. I've...

I see now why all these folks are saying to watch out how long I veg. Those last clones were so spindly with larfy loose buds that I had to buy the bowl trimmer and still.....I spent days just trimming 6 and a half zips of decent bud by hand. The bowl trimmer arrived too late for most of it...

CDLCx HbH day 40. It threw a few balls last week, but I pinched them off and I've seen no more. I did not expect this plant to get so big so fast. It's over 3 feet from base to top and nearly as wide. I've heard the buds tend to be smaller but hard, potent nugs. The Bear Chillz is a tad over 2...

I always keep the sticky traps and the vinegar, sugar, soap traps too. The environment is really conducive to gnats here, plus there are 2 chicken farms and several fruit orchards all within 2 miles of my house. Plus a produce farm right down the street. They use the chicken crap for fertilizer...
