GUYS: QUESTION TO ALL YOU KEEN PHOTOGRAPHERS

So we are using the Canon 1000D which is basically the starter DLSR from Canon, (I think Duchie got a similar one or an upgrade of the new model). Anyway, after much thought (about 2-3 years worth since we had the camera, lol), we are going to get a bigger lens. Probably something in the 35-100mm range. Can anyone recommend one for Canon? (it's a pain as I think you need the canon lens as they have built in image stabilizers...)

Any advise appreciated. Ta muchly.

What I learned from a drug program over forty years ago. We as humans tend to not talk seriously with one another until there is a crisis of some sort floating around us. It is not necessary to have a crisis to have a serious talk with the ones we love. At fifteen I was in a live in drug program and stayed there for sixteen months only to come out and two years later be shooting heroin again. I didn't apply what I learned there until twenty years later and now I try to live my life by paying it forward and being a kind honest person. I feel it's a way of paying back the universe for all the shitty things I did as a heroin addict.

One of the things I leaned, we all live within our emotions and with that in mind it is never a bad time to talk about your feelings. We go through life being hurt and hurting others, it's just the way it is, however, we do not need to keep all that hurt inside, it's so easy to share it with another and even though we may not think it, people do care, it's generally our nature to care. Some of us on here use the six hundred at times to vent or to talk about serious stuff like doobie is now...and tell me doob you don't feel better for clearing the air with your kin folk. I'm sure you do, and so do they.

Peace to you and yours doobie, I'm happy that your mom pulled through and you got to share some feelings with your dad and sis.

And now a re-veg question. I want to take a cutting from my colombian gold which has been in flower for a couple/few weeks. My question, do I take the cutting hit it with some root stuff and stick it into some dirt and use a humidity dome or not use a humidity dome?

Probably not his taste in music, but this ones for.....

Well i'd say always dome for cuttings right? I'm not sure why you are asking...like there is a reason why the norm doesn't apply? While the cutting has no roots it can only pull moisture into it through it's foliage. You also want it to be fairly warm too. I feel like I could keep going but you probably already know this?

Just take the cut normally HeadsUp and treat it the way you would a normal clone. It will root, it may even continue to flower, but eventually if left in a veg light cycle it will get the basil leaves and then eventually start growing real leaves and you will have a normal plant again.

Probably asking because it's not something he has done before I would guess, lol. You do not always need a dome for cuttings, if you take cutting you can leave em ona window and they will root eventually, (even without a medium, just a glass of water).

As the good teachers always say, Better to ask a question than to do something the wrong way...or soemthing like that, lol.

EDIT I'll go get a pic of a clone that I basically snapped the head of a plant by mistake and felt sorry for it so I am revegging it, it's a DOG of course.

And HeadsUp, I will get pictures up of what I was explaining, I haven't ignored your request.

Oh I forgot the whole reason i was going to say something at all.

Don't re-veg is my personal preference. I've seen it not perform a few times for myself and others so it seems like gambling with heartache. I mean if you are prepared to grow it right through and wouldn't care if it failed completely then sure. But for me every wasted grow or plant is a dagger in the heart lol

Me and my mate were going to grow the same thing. He had the money so bought the seeds and started before me. When I was ready i asked for cuttings and what he had done was take cuttings off plants that were maybe near 2 weeks (give or take?) in to the 12-12 cycle. Some texts will tell you it "won't work" or what ever- yeah it does (with some strains i guess) but those plants I grew and grew and grew and grew and grew.... and then gave up because the mother fucker never finished budding. It showed sex really quickly and seemed fast for the first 2 weeks but seemed to never grow any decent bud.

So it could of been a rubbish seed to begin with but I think any re-veg is going to come out with less vigour than the first season. This same dude...after he learned to grow more, had some Orange Bud and revegged it. Turned out to be very nice smoke but he was disappointed in the yield.

But hey maybe other people on here have had favourable re-veg stories?

morning 6 early start today ..nice to hear ever things well doobie.. The new look to riu is nice but weres there xmas logo they normaly have!! Whats this about it shutting down? I hope not anyway. Dst i hear what your saying about keeping journals ,i seem to have 2-4 different people that follow my grow and post comments and likes but atleast 23-40 followers who don't like or give any feedback whatsoever - at least when i post in the 6 if its liked it'll get likes if not it won't maybe even a comment or two. Im thinking wether to end that log when this goes lot goes down and do jus what u was saying..kinda of makes sense. Cam battery die as i was taking some harvest shots but i got a few pics to upload anyway.. Donkey dick colas = engineers dream closet smell i can say is hazey type dank.. Psycho killers #1&2 two diff phenos ones more fluffy -bigger nugs -longer finisher-more foxtailing and stinks makes you move your fingers from your face .. the others has nugs that are tougher and smells alot nice more bearable scents of lemon and funk.Romulan Diesels #1&2 -ones filled out twice the size of the other and but smells weaker than the smaller one ?? Both have the hardest nugs i have ever felt -smells crazy nice though .. berrys .. LmX1#2 has a black'grey purpletone ,#1 looks geen as normal and seems to finish a good week ahead of #2. Both smells arent exciting me though compared to whats in the room these are like 0.5 on the odour scale. Anyway heres the pics, some still to be chopped and trimmed up better before be hanged 1k (fluffier) 2: pk 3:ED 4:Rom d 5:Sour d 6:Rom (skinner) 7:Cheese 8:LmX#2

I was just bedazzled by his rep badges and figured he has done it before

Can we post big pics still!?

In other news I got by missus too high

She use to smoke lots but has been smoking half as much as me lately being busy with the baby.
So anyway we have a session and she has a couple Dinafem Diesel bongs and then 15 minutes later she is sitting on the couch and is like "oh i feel funny in the head". At first i was wondering if she was sick or about to faint or something but it soon become very apparently she was smashed as hell.

It's pretty good smoke for its modest description (picture in avatar)

Yeah re-veg plants do produce lower yeilds but the main point of revegging imo is to take cuts off the plant . all my revegs that i grow out are like little bonuses on top of cuts . I also snapped a nug off during flower i took the top stuck it in some clonex and popped it in to the soil with no dome over it , it rooted within a week or so, so i guess the same could apply to heads up. But if its a clone i cared about it'll be getting a dome .

That "Engineers Dream" is insane Dre, fantastic job on all of them though!!! As usual. And yeh, I think I have come to the conclusion to just give up on my journal. It will allow me to give all my loving to the 6double. lol.

Pandan, I would not wholey agree with the re-veg thing. Providing you let your plant get back into it's stride I have found it a very successful way to keep things around. I find that when cloning from flowering plants they also root very quickly.

Here's a DOG I am re-vegging just now. Looks terrible at the moment but will get it's stride.

Doesn't look like it.. spoke to soon .. how ya do that then dst!!

Did everyone see the Announcement from Admin? As i thought, all the issues have been with them moving their servers to a new host, as well as sorting all the bugs etc out.

Oh really DST? Wow this is odd because the very first sets of info i had on cloning said flowering plants don't clone...which i found out first hand was wrong anyway and seen happen first hand other times too... trying to remember where I "learned" that useless "fact".

I figured it out, seems to be freezing up right now though when you try it. You simply double click on the picture and its like it was before when you pic the size! Way easier, just needs to work lol!

Edit, it worked! Still a little glitchy hard to move around pics. Chopped my WhiteDwarf auto today, also starting my first dwc!

Yo GreenDre. Plants are looking amazing bro. Question for you... how you get them to grow with no leaves like that? Trimming must be a breeze, lol

thanks man.. Boy do i wish that were true, some of these were alot easierto trim than others like the Ed was a breeze comparied to the fluffy Pk its sticky as hell and all them foxtails getting in the way made it long,the rom d was headache too-bigger leaf than bud on the skinner plant, the fat cheese plant in the hydro was probably the easiest to trim .Im not looking forward to trimming the sour d .
Going back for more in a couple.. Dre

Hey everyone,

Wondering if could help!
My friend wants to swap me my 400w set up for a brand new 600w set up he bought by accident as he only wants a 400w. For me I have the space to do the extra plants (only doing 4 atm) and running 600w sounds like I get more bang for my buck!

What I want to know does anyone know the heat difference? Grow in UK so cold atm and in a cupboard in a cold room. Normally leave door open quite few hours a day for ventilation.
Also price difference? Someone said not much more but get more for your money?

Please help im bakedddd haha.
