Frist time grow, Trainwreck and bag seed, please help

Wow, amazing growth in a week! Very nice! Looks like you're gonna have some great smoke there.

thanks doe and i've been watching your grow also. i hope the clones are going well and happy harvest. also look forward to seeing your new set up in the near future.

Thanks! Lost one clone last night, it just went - dead looking, pulled it out and no root. The rest seem ok. Harvest isn't as nice as I had hoped, after it's dry I'm thinking it'll be around 10 ounces - not that great off of 11 plants, but then I did chop 'em early, lol. Spent yesterday making Gumby hash (not quite finished yet) and cannabutter, making a batch of brownies with some of it as we speak - hoping they work, wish me luck! hehe

the gumby hash is one of my favorites. still got about 3 grams left and smokin it right now. what an awesome way to make hash.

quick question doe. i have about 90 % milky trichomes and have started my flush. will the trichomes continue to mature when flushing? how long about does it take to go from milky to 10 % amber? remember this is my first grow so all pointers and tips are much appreciated.

thanks.

No problem, ask away! Yep the trichs will continue maturing right up until you actually harvest, flushing or not. How long it takes to finish can change with the strain - but at 90% cloudy, I would say within a week to two weeks, she could be at 10% amber. Check more frequently now, they can have a sudden spurt and change quickly.

My my frosty goodness. I didn't know trainwreck could get that frosty. Anyhow, it seems like you started flushing at right time. I heard leaving the plant in complete darkness or in 8 hrs light schedule for last 2 weeks would make her put every bit of goodness into her flowers. I haven't been able to try that but I will

thanks for stopin by dude. that is a unknown strain. in fact all three plants i'm about to chop are unknown strains. was told the seed was TR. but i can tell a difference. a friend brought some weed over last night and it was dark in my room. i smelt it and said it was trainwreck without even seeing it. sure as shit was right.

the darkness thing is almost out of the question for me as i have other plants in the flowering room at different age. trying for a once a month harvest.

thanks doe. havent seen much of a change the last few days and was thinking of adding some nutrients to the water. not going to now though. do people who use 100% organic fertilizers need to flush? would it hurt to use some 100% organic big bloom on them? just a thought.

You could try. I use chemical nutes, flushed my very first grow, and not since then - noticed no difference in taste. In my opinion, flushing before harvest is only necessary, if you seriously over nute your plants.

well noted and thanks for the quick reply.

attitude is waitin for T.H. seeds to send more A-train. they sent me an email saying my order should ship monday, 9 days after i placed it.

wont judge them just yet. lets just hope i dont get white seeds or cracked ones. first time buying so im a little worried.

From The Attitude you mean? I wouldn't worry - I've ordered from them several times, always got my beans. Waiting on some right now, matter of fact.

Hey there, welcome to the forum. Usually you'll get help faster if you post your own thread, rather than posting in someone else's. Sounds like you're off to a good start - you need to remove the humidity dome, though - you always want to take it off as soon as the seedlings break the surface - too much humidity past that point can cause problems, including rotting your seedling.

well you got to take the good with the bad. isnt that what they say? today i inspected my purple leaved plant and clearly noticed purple, dark red and brown color trichomes. the trich isnt 100% purple but it looks so cool, starting at the base and working its way to the head. i'd say most that are changing color are about 3/4 the way up the stock of the trich. most the hairs are brown and some are a yellowish/green. none are white.

now the bad. after my trich inspection my attention turned to my lovely afgooey's to my left. started looking closely at the lower leaves. saw some leaves that were speckled white. looked under those leaves. saw eggs. looked closely. saw mites. got my camera out and took pictures of mites. dam it fffffffffffff. the first two clones i got of the afgooey are infested. my caregiver said shit happens. also said it been 2 harvest scene he had those little fuckers. also said hes ordering some lady bugs tomorrow and will hook me up. what should i do?

i'll post pictures later tonight.

I'll try to save you a lot of time and money. There are several remedies that everyone will throw at you like water and alcohol, cold water, vinegar water, soap water and these only seem to keep them under control. I had mite issues for the last 3-4 months but finally got rid of the little fuckers with attention to detail and a great product called organacide. To get rid of mites, I remove all leaves that I find them on if the infestation is small. Small being when they are only on the lower branches and parts of the leaves. If they are on the whole plant only remove the worst ones. Then spray from the bottom up getting the center stems and the bottom of every leaf. Dont miss a single one. Laziness here will only screw you later. Once you have sprayed the whole plant from the bottom up, I come back from the top down spraying the tops of all the leaves. Once the plant has been sprayed, I spray the pot, floor and any equipment that wont get damaged that is anywhere near the effected plant. Also isolate the plants that have them from the ones that dont. If you do this properly, you should be mite free after 1 spray, but I always do a second one 2-3 days later just in case. As far as the Organacide, that is a brand, not a type of insecticide. It is the only miticide that I know of that kills the eggs as well as the mites. Read all of the other ones, they are for mites and do not effect the eggs. for example- Dont Bug Me, Bang, Azamax, any Neem oil all kill only mites which means that you have to respray 2-3 times to supposedly get rid of them, but spray after spray they kept comimg back on me(I used all of these). Tried Organacide out and havent seen them since. If you have any questions feel free to ask. All the above steps are only for veg plants or the first week or two of flower. If you are well into flower, your only real option is bug bombs. If you go that route, be careful. You can blow up your house if you do it wrong. That is not a joke.

thanks for the reply, very good info. my two afgooey are only infested on the bottoms and they are 2 weeks into flowering. should i still cut off the bad leaves? whats the best way to get rid of them in flowering?

just wondering if u havent already said it...u said like 15 bucks for 6 months worth of Co2 what method do u have? perhaps a picture would be best

its dark in the room now but they are natural Co2 bags. the bag has a one way filter at the top. the shit inside grows and produces the gas. i got two and i highly recommend them. maybe tomorrow i'll take a picture for you.
