DO you think it would be possible to lst the main branch to allow the polyploid branch to catch up. Level out the playing field and auxins should also get levelled out? no?

Sounds like a real interesting plant none the less.

all sorts of b-days this time of year... mines soon too. lol happy b day to 209 and whoever else!!

so ive come to ya'll good folks for some advice on training/topping a plant im having issues with... I have a plant from seed that mutated a bit while still young. It ended up having a couple of wierd nodes with extra sets on them. it caused the plant to grow out two main stems on its own as if it were topped, with two other smaller secondary stems shooting out under-neath and to the side, which ill most likely take off and maybe use for clones since this plant smells so good so far.
one of the main stems turned out to grow completely normal, while the other main stem kept growing out like a polyploid. i topped the polyploid main stem to get it to stop having crazy nodes. now its growing out about 5 normal tops from where i topped it, but, its shorter than the other main stem. i even topped the normal main stem and tried to let the mutated main stem catch up, which led to the "normal" main branch to having a nice set of 4 big stems coming out, and i even topped the 2 tallest ones on that to try and let the other stem catch up. so now ive got one taller main stem thats gonna have 6 nice even stems growing out, and another shorter main stem with 5 new tops growing out from where i topped it to correct it from being polyploid. problem is the one stem that was normal is growing faster and is taller. so now it would take some work to get both sets of tops at the same height for an even canopy. and im usually pretty good at that, but this one is giving me trouble. im racking my brain trying to make a decision on what to do.
would u guys just chop the shorter main stem and let the other, nicer, more mature, and more even growing stem go on alone and just have the 6 main tops? its what ive considered... but i cant help thinking that i could just leave it be and have much more tops but with some of them not being as tall and even. plus id be chopping off a big part of the plant...

i hope this aint too confusing... ill get some pics to try and show u what i mean as soon as i find my camera. heres a crappy paint drawing in the meantime.

Thanks, D

I'm about as chuffed as I can be.
As soon as we hear from the title company tomorrow early, we'll know the final amount to wire them for down payment, fees & closing costs, then it's a done deal and they turn over the keys on Friday.
We're hiring 3 guys to do the physical part of the hauling, so after we've packed it will be about 6 hours to move it all (me and an old & in-shape hippe from the other temp agency did it in 8 hours when we moved here from Portland).
Will have a wall to take out on Saturday, then getting the washer & drying delivered on the 3rd, then carpet & laminate flooring show up a few days later.
Well, the laminate will be dropped off so it can get aclimated to the house for a few days before they install it.
Tons to do yet, and will be busy as for a while.
Trying for a move-in date of Sept 12th or 13th.
Going to be nice to say goodbye to the apartment (forever to be known as U-420), and get back to making like Hank Hill again.
;-)
Lots of before & after pics to come over the next few weeks.
:-)
Hope you have a great day!

wiring over the cash for a house, not your usual internet banking transaction! just awesome though mate. I remember the last company I worked for, I was doing practically every fukkin job for them at one point, they had me transferring money through their banking system to pay invoices off, and one day I added a figure which I had cut and paste from a document and for some reason it added about 5 0's onto the end of the number, lmfao....needless to say the bank contacted us to say we had insufficient funds:shock:

Glad to hear it jimmer. Meant to say, good luck with school! I think it was hydra that was saying he dropped like $800 on his books, fuk me that was my whole grant for the year, lol.....
Thanks. I spent $1300 on used books and a apprentice tool kit for school. I have all the tools except a couple of specialty tools but I get $9000 in grants alone for the school year and figured it's best to get the kit the instructor recommends for that part of schooling. Plus I get unemployment the whole 2 years. I figured it out and works out to be like $15 an hour job. Best opportunity in my life.

I just realized that I'm almost at 420 post. I wish I was talented enough to post a cool banjo jam or something like doobiebrothers famous post but I suck so I'll save everyone the pain.

We must have had a bad storm while I was sleeping last night. All my outside girls look like wet poodles. 1 branch on a smaller plant broke. I could have splint it but decided to just cut off and figure I'll make some butter with it and my trim from my inside harvest now finishing outside. My Jack Herer is done I see today and the Liberty Haze is Finally starting to finish up. So by Monday it should all be harvested and trimmed.

I'm also thinking about starting a thread for my bb gear in flower and the ones I just started when they pop if I can figure out how to link it to my sig. Does any one have an idea where I can find out how to. Yes, I'm a dumb ass on the computer. But even a mid age dog can learn new tricks. Peace.

To get the link you want, you will go to the page you want the link to... copy the url address up at the top (the www. bit)

Now at the top of an RIU page on the right there is a link to 'My Rollitup'. Click on that.

On the left is a long menu of links... in there is 'Edit Signature'. Click on that

That will bring up a big box like a post looks... paste the link in there, click 'Save Signature' and you are golden.

Any help needed on how to do any of the things I described, just mention it. And if you want to do advanced stuff we can help with that too. :) :)

Diffrerent subject, I'm a big fan of folks going to school.

Thanks so much. I'll do this later tonight when my Gf is sleeping. On the school thing thanks also. I figure I use my brain for trying to get the most money without working for years and the amount of work that takes I might as well use it for work instead of my body. After 2 hernia surgeries and 1 back surgery doing flooring and such has kicked my butt. Also no matter what you want to do in life learning the most you can about it is always a good thing and almost a necessity if you want to succeed. It just took me awhile to get to this realization. We all know how the story goes young and knows it all.

I forgot the pron from my jack I harvested today. It was 3 of the little clones.011.jpg012.jpg

I feel like school teaches you how to learn. And knowing how to learn makes anything possible. Well most things at least. I can teach myself anything now, especially with the help of the internet. Speaking of which, I haven't shown you guys my building (something I learned how to do mostly on my own).

Say hi to Mom! Have a good time mate. Is she coming back out when the baby's born? How many gran kids she already got? Give her a big hug from some guy she's never heard of.

She likes hugs from guys, lol...not necessarily me though (that's not truessy, lol). She got 2 from my sister, and then 4 from my half sister and brother (brother is like - who the fuk, we never hear or see him, so my Ma stopped sending them bonds, lol).

And she said, "your Sister and me will be coming over before Xmas to see the baby,......we'll be staying in a hotel". FUKKIN GOOD, I thought! I do love my ma!

thx for the response DST... yeah i did a no-no and forgot to label my plants/seeds this time around . im pretty sure its a Nirvana Medusa tho. ive finished one other plant of it a while back, loved the final product. rock hard indica buds, very strong stone, excellent indica medicine ime, just sometimes its a fussy strain. i had another amazing medusa plant this time, just wonderful, and it turned out to be male. ugh... wish i could use it for something or give it to someone who could.

well the bigger main stem has already been topped, AND the top 2 new growths were topped again to let the next set down catch up and level out. thats why i tried to draw the pic with the 6 stems sticking out like that on the bigger main stem. so ive really done alot of pruning already to try and let the new growth from the shorter main branch catch up, which like the drawing shows, has 5 new stems growing out from the polyploid madness on that branch
i dunno... im still considering just hacking off the polyploid branch, with its 5 little new tops (which none are poly's so far too), and just seeing if it will root and just make it a clone. that would leave me with a very nice and even canopy on the other branch

I almost just gave up on this one a while ago, but it had such a good smell to it. That usually is a sign that its probably a good pheno ime. Usually the strongest smelling plants in veg end up being the most potent and/or hashy at the end for me.
