OK, 1st of August, the month all good things happen.

I think I see my first flower forming on the bubba kush.
She has needed extra water twice this last week.





I got pistils on the Tangerine Dream.




Look how tall train wreck got. Shes turning but a little slower then the others.



Gonna have to dig that hole soon.

That's a great pic of the Bubba Kush! I'm also wondering just how tall the TrainWreck would have gotten to if you had never topped it. 12 -14 feet? I'm curious if such tells you guys what origin the plant has or if that is a trait for all stativa. Very impressive Cruzer...looks like you are having a good problem free grow this time. Congrats!

Hey Wilbur. Yeah, I think you are right on the money with 12 to 14 feet if I vegged all summer. I did start her a bit later to help with size though. I'm pretty sure all sativas get tall like that. This is a cross but still... I think there is some diesel in her origin.

Thanks man, yeah, I learned a bit from last years grow and I think I got this under control. We'll see.

She sure has. Yep a little slow in getting started but worth the wait.

Man that was a scissor fest alright. My friend keeps telling me I should break down and buy a trimmer but I do ok.
On a good day I can do about a pound by myself. That's if I trim all day long and not too particular.

Go for it man, I think your ready.
No way I can take the roof off this year, I blocked it with chicken wire to remove that option.

They look awesome cruzer!
Thanks bud.

Hi everyone, Here's My Growitup greenhouse Grow for 2011
I post pic updates during the week and a video once a week.

If you would like to see the build or the first grow you can click the links below;

That will get you caught up to today. All comments and suggestions welcome.

OK, Lets get started, In a nut shell, I'm legal, I built this thing so I could supply myself and one other patient instead of purchasing my meds from the clubs. It's worked out pretty dam good. I get the big grow where I veg and flower out here then I veg up clones indoors and flower them out in the winter and spring. My excess meds I donate to the clubs and they take care of me when I need something.

I grew several strains last summer, my fav was and still is Casey Jones.
The first winter harvest just came down, Hindu Kush Skunk in soil and Headband in hydro.
Let me twist this Hindu nugget up and I'll get some vids up for ya.



There, that's much better.
Here we go, Pic of the green house,



What I got going on now,



I got five G-13 and one Sliver Jack mom that are in week 3 of flower and the five in the front are clones from that, they are a week or so behind. Water is on a timer, right now its one minute twice a day. I add nutes to the res once a week to about 600 ppm, pH to 6.5 then I don't adjust the pH during the week, by the end of the week I'm at 7.0

To the right of this door is what I call my water shed.






I have two filter systems, one is a tall boy for soil grows thats plumbed inside to the plants, on a timer I water a few minutes twice a day. The other is a reverse osmosis for the hydro grows that's plumbed to a remote res.



The co2 is just to help keep the mite population down for now. I'm working on ways to keep this cool enough where I can use it properly but I think I need a controller with fuzzy logic and a more powerful air conditioner in here. I cant see spending the money on that.

Here's this weeks vid,

So thats about it, I'm not sure whats going in there this summer but I am leaning towards Casey Jones or a Kush that I can get a good yield out of.

Oh yeah, cant forget my guard dog I got for security...
Max. He's nine months old now.



He's got a little drinking problem.
Problem is the little shit keeps taking my water.
sorry for being totally off subject (and LATE) you have the same computer keyboard as me.... it came with my gateway XD
anyways, i just love your grow.... its just so perfect man.... your my idol !XD

Going through stretch. Had one reach the chicken wire in about 3 days.
This method of tying back to the screen with wire is working pretty good. Once the stem outgrows the tie I just untie it and move it forward.
That Train wreck is what fills it up. That should be under control soon.

Turned the water back to 7 min. It was leaving too much run off on the brick and creating high humidity in the mornings.

I got about 6 inches growth over all this last week even with tying them back.
Gave them diamond nectar and hygrozyme during the week, Gonna feed tomorrow.

The left side is growing faster then the right. I was going to dig the hole for the train wreck back there but I think more towards the door would be better.





Took the same angle shots as last week to compare.
Bubba:




Tangerine dream:




I moved the train out and back in again so its not at the same angle but you can see the growth.




Once it cools down this afternoon I'll go ahead and sink it and train the rest back some again.

OK, I got the hole dug and sank the train wreck, now its the same height as the rest.










I put the Bubba back in the corner and figure I will continue to train but towards the center of the greenhouse.




I removed the rest of the lower stuff, got about half a garbage can full.
Gonna give them a day or two to get over it then I'll train the rest back about 6 inches and that should do it.

Now that's more like what I had in mind. I'll get a video up in a few. Time to relax and burn one.
