My Girls

Here they are this morning, I got rid of the one that wasnt opening so there are now 14 total..The one that is deformed is opening and starting to take on its natural shape..
They were watered and then fed last night for the first time, They got a dose of Dr. Hornbys grow, 1/2 tsp per gallon (360 ppm). They perked right up.The temp is between 78 and 82 with humidity at 60%.. I am starting to give them some rest for 6 hours as of last night.. I will do this twice during veg to give them the time to recoup, store up some energy and do some rebuilding.I think personally it does most of these things during the dark cycle..Cant hurt..of them as a mother as well as 1 to 2 of the N.L. and 1 of these new GDP..
I will be doing four mothers, 1 S.S.H., 1 GDP, 1 N.L. and 1 master x O.G.I gave my mother to a patient who is part of my Collective Pro215.com, He is taking clones for us.I have one that just started flowering last week..I will also be doing a set of 20 to 30 Kushes here real soon as another patient of mine is getting the cuts done this week..He has 16 mothers.(Patient Collective, Working together)..

Sept 10th and they are doing fine, Nice and green and seemed to have liked that dose of Nutrients the other day, I will give them another dose Friday!!Temp is at 82 and 78 in the evening when it cools down! Humidity Between 50 and 60%..Nice air circulation.. They are about three inches now!!
The one that was a little deformed is taking on a shape of its own as the others are pretty uniformed! They were watered and misted today..If I had to guess on amount of water Id say they get about two to three cups a day, to every other day..I go by weight..And soil retention!!
I will be letting these go until they are twelve to fourteen inches, Then I will cut some clones and start flowering..This is a beautiful stocky, Robust plant.If you haven't noticed from the ones that I am almost done with...I want to do around 30.I shall see..

They were watered yesterday and misted, P.H. 6.0, Humidity at 60% and temp is between 73 and 81..They seem to be doing good..Had a few white spots but its gone away..They are about 3in tall and working on fourth set of nodes, Everything is pretty uniformed (except two)!! The two are deformed somewhat, I got rid of the runt and one started off like it was eaten, Its doing much better, Then there's one that stopped growing up and split three ways..Ill take a closeup to show..
There are two nice clones of N.L. that I put in there in the day while the 1000 wt is off, Then I throw them in the 1000wt rm at night..Those are going to make some nice mothers..

thraxz those are looking very nice. i think i may of given mine a bit of nute burn but hopefully they will turn out like yours.

Looks like a little nut burn, Flush it a few times she will be fine, Other than that they look nice and healthy!!

i am going to keep it as it is for the time being unless it gets worse. i'm pretty sure they can handle wot they have been given. i think it was just the fact that i had dumped a concentrated amount into the rez. hopefully now it has diluted to the correct amount.

i will be looking at getting a ph tester tomorrow tho.

P.H. tester is fine, But try to get a ppm or tds meter. That will give you nutrient strength..They are pretty strong and vigorous.They can take some punishment..As long as you catch the problem quick you should be OK...

cheers mate, i'll see if i can get one of those. probably have to make a trip to hydro store for that. £££.

Yea, you can get that at the hydro store.They range from 50 to 500 so be prepared to spend..You need one though doing hydro..

They were watered this morning with a mix of seaweed extract and Nutrients (Dr. Hornbies Guano grow Advanced Nutrients).P.H. at 6.0 humidity at 55% and temp Between 74 and 82..
I am letting them get 4 hrs of darkness now,from 1pm until 4pm, I figure they need a little rest before I put them into two weeks veg. I will give them one more week in the pre veg room..Then they will be put under four hundred Hps for two weeks then flower..
The N.L. clones are doing very nice I took 6 cuttings off them and they are looking good as well...They are in a dome with heat pad underneath and Aero garden cfls above.. I have had 50/50 luck cloning.

The deformed ones are looking more and more normal everyday.They just started off funky!
Thee are some extra pics of some of these GDPs almost done!! Look how goey they look,and they are thick as Fk!

nobody wants too seee those mijits....jk.... theyre getting there....

Yea they are doing very nice, They are going to be my main strain. The ones that are almost done are amazing, you should see the Trichome clusters, I have never seen nothing like it!
I made a 420 scope last night out of an old pair of binoculars, What a difference a scope makes in telling how far along they are..
Put some pics up Son,Lets see those beautiful girls..

Here they are this evening, They were watered yesterday and today with P.H. at 6.0, Temp is between 74 and 82 and humidity at 55%! They are pretty much nice and uniformed with 4 sets of nodes, They are starting to branch out..4in... I bought a small desk fan to blow on them and build their stalks up! I have as of yesterday switched them to twenty on 4 off, I did this so they can have a chance to rest.. Cant hurt..


The N.L. are doing nice as well around 10in with some close node structure...There is a close up of one that is almost done!!

I know its been a couple of days, Ive been busy!!
Well they were watered twice and fed once, P.H. at 6.0 temp between 74 and 81 with humidity at 55%. They were fed 350 ppm of Dr.Hornbies Guano grow (1/2 tsp) and Seaweed extract (1/2 tbl spoon )..They are all doing very nice and pretty much have all become uniformed..I went out and got a small desk fan to blow on them and give them some strength, also they get misted once a day with water..Going to start foilar spray next week..

I will veg them till they are 16 to 20" this time....Plus Im going to be giving them a little more Nutrients then the last crop..See how they do!!
I found some microscopic bugs last nite, Got a little freaked.I pulled a GDP out and then did some research..They are called springtales and from what I found, They arent very harmful yet arent great to have either..Cause is from over dampining the soil..So Im going to Let the rest of the ones flowering dry up a little..

So I have a few pics of one haging!! Look that might be the Thraxz!!

you already started harvest.....????

Only the One GDP...

I give them some Dr.Hornbys Grow and some seaweed extract.They are in a mixture of Ocean forest and Vermiculite!! I have fead them a total of 8 times their whole life..They seem to be doing fine and I figure dont mess with them unless they ask!!

The babies I just started have rooted nicely in three days, From Freezer to nice root mass Five days I bet.. Thats on the GDP seeds I got the A.I. are slow but coming along, I will post some pics later tonight!!
I have read and studied independently for twenty years, I have been across this great country and Smoked some fine Herb met great people on the way..So I am finally doing it on my own, What a kick ass Hobby!!

I go by the same method. The plants tell me when they are hungry, .... which is like all the freaking time.. lol... I have probably fed my big plants a total of 20 times... the smaller ones outside twice, and the ones that are still inside have never been fed because they keep getting fresh Fox Farms Ocean Forest to feed from, .... it is the greatest hobby isn't it... I keep trying to think of how I could make a living from it without selling it, and academia is looking really appealing , colleges/universities will pay me for my research in grants and scholarships I hope,

Yes, Im sure here in the near future their will be some great oppurtunities for you..You should contact Oaksterdam they have some great courses..Could use some skilled master growers Im sure.. I to have other plans and dreams besides the Medicinal part..I am going to start a fund.. P.M. me and I can give you some info on my Collective and on the fund I am creating.....

GDP is looking good, though your yield would have been doubled with just a little extra veg time... you should look into that.... oh wait, I see your going to veg longer with this new batch right? It depends on the space your working with.... which I have plenty, and would loan you some if I could... Try and veg to 24" if you can.
Its very important that you let the pots dry out as much as possible before watering when the plants are flowering, it helps to induce resin production, and stimulate the roots to pull in more nutes faster (so long as light, and air quality/flow are at optimum). Most microorganisms are good, especially in soil, there should be a healthy balance of all different kinds of micro organisms. but if there is an unhealthy balance and If your plant starts looking unhappy due to what you may think are medium problems (for example the very tips of leaves curl down, like on my GDP) hit the medium with a light (and I mean light) peroxide solution (you can buy some premixed peroxide solutions at nursery/garden stores, but I still dilute them with water anyways), and then hit the medium with a good micro nutrient solution after the next watering. I would recommend Thrive Alive B1 in combo with Superthrive and an organic micronute mix of your choosing (make sure its organic though!!!). I think your with your plants you should be able to work up to 650-700 ppm on the veg nutes before you flower, and be able to start with flower nutes around 450-500 ppm bloom nutes (with an additional 250 ppm of veg nutes), and work up from there to about 900 total ppm of nutes during flowering. What is the ppm of your air in there? I would think that keeping the ppm in your air (of the CO2) at around 500-700 ppm throughout is a good idea if you could, and even better to boost it during two or three spurts a day to 900-1000 ppm while turning on a couple black lights in the room at the same time for like 15 minutes at a time... Dr. Hornbies is good, if I used it, I would be very careful not to use too much of it though, because I have seen too large doses at the wrong times wreak havoc on grows (I use FF because I don't have to worry too much about burning plants because they are all different strains at different stages of development, and I don't have the time to measure out all the individual doses for each individual plant, so I eyeball it, and come back a little later and leach a little with water that has been phed to counter balance the ph of the runoff from the feeding). If those are your vegging temps and humidity, your temps are perfect, your humidity should go up a little bit. If its your flowering room humidity and temps, I would bring humidity down to around 40%, and temps up to between 80-83 with really good amounts of air and CO2 circulation (it will increase transpiration frequency and the quality of carb production from photosynthesis, thus allowing more energy to flow more easily throughout the plant for the plant to produce healthier more potent and more buds) .... I sure you know most of this, and may not agree about some of the ppm's etc. based on your specific growing environment and schedule, but I thought I would just throw it all out there anyways. Your knowledge and experience are well exemplified in the health and prominent stature of your plants .... I have to say great job!

one thing I forgot to mention about letting your medium dry out nice and evenly... harmful micro organisms feed partly off of water and water soluble nutrients as well as stationary micronutrients, and partly off of plant and root particles themselves. If you let your pots dry out nice and evenly then there will be less water, nutrients, and free healthy plant tissues to feed from (they feed mostly off of newer root growth etc.), they will die as a result, giving your helpful micro organisms more food to feed from, increasing their chances of fending off harmful micro organisms... I am sure you will notice its almost virtually the same as macro organisms, just on a much smaller scale. I am loving your journal more and more by the way.... been meaning to stop by for like the last week... just been really busy posting away.... lol.... I will stop with the thread jacking now... sorry.
