Get that car fixed! Lol. Hopefully you aren't lifting an engine out right now and you'll have her tip top in no time. Meanwhile I'll start leaving some shit for you to check out when you get back, lol.

I transplanted today into my 5 gal smart pots and since I had everything out I figured I'd take a couple shots of the scrog screen I was telling you about.

I bought a 7' x 3 1/2' piece of remesh, its used in concrete to help give it better integrity. The holes were like 5x5 inches so I took some yoyo string and strung them across it to make 4 holes for each 1 the remesh came with (and cut 3x3 squares of it first, so its jot one huge piece). Here's the plant that I tied the tops down, and then put in one of the screens. This is the same plant from the other picture I posted.

Vegged for over 2 months to get it that big, but the screens are working great so far. I'm not sure if I'm gonna keep them individual like that, or if I'm gonna try and use the remesh and just make one big screen in my tent and fasten it to the corners.

And dude, 4x8 tent? No wonder you have so many plants! Mines a 2x4 and it seems humongous. Hopefully I can get a bigger tent and use the one I have now for veg.

Looking good man, as always!

Looks good. Maybe a little low with the net though..
You'll want to weave her around in there before you flip to 12/12.

If you have already flipped then just start weaving her through now.
That way your canopy is short enough for it ALL to get good light....


As for the car, Just rear brake calipers giving me trouble... one pin is stuck and I can't get it out. just bought a torch tonight so i'll finish up sometime tomorrow.........


And yes I have a 8x4 tent. and I've only got half of it filled at the moment.....
As they get bigger and need more room then I can spread them out. but for now they are fine.......


Gotta go check on the plants now. take care.

He should have it at or just below the top of the canopy right??
All depends, on how much longer hes gonna vegg,but yea just below the final height of the canopy.
I like to make it adjustable,just because of the strech the first 2-3 weeks of F,Some will double or triple,
and some may not strech that much at all.
Beech
ps.where he has it now, theres no way that you can bend and twist em to that level,the way I see it
its down almost on the top of pots.

The Spyder female is flowering.(Males are in a closet with a 150w HPS)

Only 1 actually flowering in the tent.....

Everything is vegging. and Yes only 1 tent 8ft x 4ft. and i'm only using half of it at the moment........
Once they all grow and I will pull out the males to flower them separately(pollen collection)

I plan to flower 32-36 plants in that tent..... However with the BD mother having to get transplanted to a larger container, I will be losing some room to that...

She will be alone in the large pot and the rest of the plants will be in 3 gallon grow bags.... Gonna do a mass transplant 2 weeks before the SOLO cups are done. that way when I chop the last of the Spyders, I can flip at the same time...

Doing it that way gives me the time I need to collect pollen and have it ready to pollenate certain females..



Have some "Dedication" crosses to do.
For a fellow Blueberry fan...
BBYY(Female) x BD(Fem pollen) = *****'* Sapphire
BBYY(male pollen) x BD(Female) = Indigo *****

I'm not sure of what else I am going to cross at the moment. since those 2 crosses are the only thing on my mind since last night.

Anyways the longer I sit here the longer my car stays messed up..... Take care all. Check in later





Edit: Beech, Your opinion will ALWAYS count to me buddy. Thank you for all your help.
Pack as many as you can in there,cant ever have enuff hoes,lol.

Yeah plan on that. just wanna leave some room for the ones i'm super cropping.
I don't mind topping all the clones and letting them go in 3gal grow bags all piled together..

Just need to figure out what I want to clone and everything....... Did you see the full update on page 20??

With all the strains I can see how it can get confusing. however. No Blue Hashplant here bro....
Here's the new and final list for strains in this grow.


BLUES
HSO Blue Dream(fem)
Blueberry Yum Yum
Blue Thai(fem)
Original Blueberry
Sour Blueberry
PURPLES
GDP
Spyder
OTHERS
White 88 G13/Hashplant
Cocoa Puffs
**Supreme Delight
Kerala x Skunk
Cotton Candy(fem)




Think that's it lol........ Getting hard to keep track now..

To make it easy on myself. any crosses I do will be to an individual clone or 2. instead of just a branch.
This way I have plenty of seeds in the end and plenty of plants without any at all...

Mainly a bunch of Blue Dream crosses...

BD(female) x BBYY(male)
BD(fem pollen) x BBYY(female)
BD(female) x Cocoa Puffs(male)
BD(female) x Spyder(male)
BD(fem pollen) x Spyder(female, 1 of my solo cup contest entries)
BD(fem pollen) x Cotton Candy(female)



I plan to breed everything back with itself(using a male(for Regular seeds) or Colloidal Silver(for Fem seeds) or both)
So I can do something with the others next time if I like them.....

Well bro, everything is looking great 2 me! ;) keep that great work up! I really like the look of the BD! I bet she'll turn out to be some killer tree! Hell bro, if you keep on starting all these strains, you may make it up to my # of strains going! Haha.. ;)
So, what is the # you plan on topping out at :??: me, hell when I feel the urge to start one, kattie bar the door! ;)
I love a wide selection! Well that & once I've toked on 1 certain strain I tend to get use to it and have to switch over to something new! :joint:

But yeah bro, there all looking good. Do believe I seen one of the babies doing that leaf curl just a tad! Nothing to worry about! Did you happen to maybe over water, or under :??:

Under/heat stress. forgot to turn the fan back on after pics a few time and it was sitting in a hot spot. but not burning yet.
I caught it while it was still green.. Happens to me quite often to be perfectly honest. lol...
I don't really worry about it like I did the AK auto I did last year. lol....

Can't fuckin wait till these auto's are done. lol... I need to get going with my Colloidal Silver project.....
Soooo many cutting to take for this....
Blue Dream has 22 tops ATM and i'm taking the tallest 10. that should be plenty of clones for breeding/sex change......

Plus I got 8 still in the dome that are going to be flowering with their mother on the NON pollenated side of the tent....


I got some time to wait anyways because I got the auto males still.
then after that i'll start makin males with the 150w on 12/12 in the closet.....
The BBYY are still sprouts.
And I don't have 3/4ths of the garden sexed. lol....... unrooted clones don't count.

Hey thanks for pointing that out about my screen height guys. I actually started this screen out in veg BC I had a dropped bucket accident that split the plant right down the middle about an inch, right between the two main tops. I taped the shit out of her and had to hang string from the ceiling to keep it from getting worse, and built the screen mainly just to support that.

Its just now starting the 3rd week of flower. I'm pretty sure its a hybrid pheno (bag seed) BC its stretched a lot since I put that screen on 3 weeks ago, at first it was only 3-4" out of the top but now there's basically nothing left under the screen.

I transplanted to a bigger pot and raised it about 4 inches. Next feed is a flush so I'll have to get them back out, I'll tale pics when I do and pop em on here for some feedback BC I might not have them high enough still.

BTW stew, I didn't know you had that sour blueberry, is that another one from hso? I was close to getting that and the chemdawg but I couldn't make up my mind.

No it's not... it's an older version from a different breeder(not exactly sure of breeder). HSO has a sick one though.



As for the net. build another.......... Your plant stretched because she was healthy and didn't have to support her own weight with the net being there.

So if you don't have the ability to move the one in place just make a new one and put it about 8" below the top and weave the branches through it. this will drop the entire height of the canopy and allow better light penetration to the lower branches. that way you still have buds growing BETWEEN the 2 nets as well as above the top one.

Sweet,I hadn't thought about building another screen on top, that's not a bad idea. Where I've moved it now though its probably close to 8 inches from the top, I'll have to get pics sometime but tonight's my ten year reunion plus my girlfriends birthday so I doubt I'll have time. Three of the tops on that plant are sticking up way higher than the rest, so that kind of throws it off.

Its crazy, when I first put that screen on there and spread it all out I was like "damn, this thing is scraggly. I hope it fills this screen out". Now I can't imagine how I could open it up anymore, its bushy as all hell, but I'm sure I can find a way to get more light in it. I've been running my ballast @1000w here lately, since my plants have adjusted to the hps.
