Balls to the Wall grow, Riddleme Gets Serious

Meant the 36 hours before flippin to 12/12 was useless, agree harvesting before lights on is a good thing and actually takes a long time for the plant (grown right) to die processes continue for weeks if allowed (most don't) and yeah I know a bit about it :)

the idea of a bag is only used becuase u cant turn the sun off...but yea dont trichs thrive during the night period? and y wouldnt extending the lights off period be a good thing if picking it in that lights off stage is good?...i was told newur from a few hours to 12....lookin good!! trichs everywur already! im about 34days into flower and my fan leaves arent that snowed out! cant wait to see this
 
Well well well. It seems I've taught you well, my little grasshopper:) I've been waiting for a reason to check this place. I check a few grows hear and there, but most my time is spent at Speedys. Glad to see all is well. Hope you dig the new house:mrgreen:
I'll be back to check ya, sober Edit (mever sober) sooner than later.

Ohhhhh, 36hr is a must. I know a old old old old school grower, who would use a trash bag, back in the day. He said by the 2nd day, it was swarming with bugs. That told him, it was ready. He said, all this OG, durban ect* couldn't hold a candle to those days. The plastic, made the plant sweat somethin terrible, also excreteing double the THC.

I be back:)

I check the new posts every day so that I won't miss anything. Your thread didn't show up on new posts for me until today. I don't know how that could happen, but I'm subbed. It's very good to see you back too. Sorry I missed your entry.

Well it has been fun so far right?
12 days since we took clones and we have roots on all but 2 of the 10
we have a jungle in the garden, took another light view shot this looking up thru DD
No top down shots (except the guest, Holly) they are at 29 inches now seems it was just a few days ago they were at 23? not sure you can see the yardstick?
I tried this morning to get a sunrise shot of the heater coming on but the IR light was not enough for the camera to get a good pic, was gonna try a flash shot then the batteries died, by the time I changed them the light had come on, maybe next time?

At this point we are all just waiting for them to start budding, which could now be any day, the little hairs are starting to show all over them.

Gonna be moving Udo to another room this weekend, put him under a CFL so he can make me some polen :) gonna enlarge the drain holes on the buckets so the pots can breath better, gonna be a busy day in the garden :hump:

Enjoy the pics as always

very nice riddle. how much further can you raise your light? you are gonna have ALOT of stretch!! It will be interesting.
 
looking really good! I have been thinking about the ed rosenthal thing you posted earlier. He says that blue light will "stop" the stretch and red light will increase it? so since the cmh bulbs have good amounts of both how will that affect the plants during bloom? you are growing a northern lights as you did before(that was under the cfl right?) do you notice any difference in the stretch yet?
 
Riddleme the grow looks awesome. Thanks for all the well wishes. The hurricane weakened and I escaped with no significant damage.
I have a quick question for you. I have a 100 to 120 day super auto growing, do you think it would benefit from topping.

Have never grown an auto? but have read that most do not like being topped

glad to hear everything went well

there is a huge difference between this NL Special and the last one as far as the stretching goes, at this point I am not concerned as I am looking for how big they will get, next grow will be very different :)

got another 6 inches the light could go up, can always drop the raised platform, plenty of room there :)
 
oh, didnt think about going down! i was beginning to worry this wonderful grow was gonna t-bone the light!!
 
Good Morning Riddle,

Wow, things are getting kinda exciting and looking great! So the "sunrise" shot you want to get could be a really great pic. Gonna need a long exposure time though... at least a second I would guess. If your camera has a flash fill setting, that might give you the exposure time, and the flash will open up the deep shadows. Flash may also wash out the IR light though. Kind of a tricky shot, but could be very cool... especially when they got some big fat colas on em. You will also need something to mount or set the camera on (tripod if you got it) and use the camera timer to reduce camera shake.
