if you want eh sative high i would suggest getting a sativa plant. the trichs do have a lil bit to do with what type of high but not all.

like if you have a mostly indica plant that is a couch lock high, then either way your gonna get that type of high, but it depend on the harvest time if it is a very powerful couch lock or just a mid grade couch lock

That's a good analogy. My problem was when I upgraded to a bigger flower tent I only had enough fans for the two smaller tents and I haven't been able to buy new one's since. I'm hoping to re do my entire veg tent this weekend and squeeze my box fan in there, that's the only extra fan I have right now...

think of it like this. the stock,stems and branches are like highways for the plants water and food to reach the plant. so if you only got a single lane of traffic it is moving slower and not getting near as much traffic though to the plant. now if they are thicker it is gonna be more like a 2-4 lane highway meaning faster movement and more traffic.

I did grow sativa dom strains, Jack Herer and Acapulco Gold but I dropped the AG and replacing JH with Casey Jones (80/20 sativa dom.) There is also the Sour OG that is a sativa but she's been revegging for a month and finally started sprouting out regular leafs, she won't be ready to flower for another month.

It's been a few months since I've been able to harvest a plant without any issues, before the bugs it was the heat so I've either had to kill plants or chop early. Hopefully I can harvest according to trichs again instead of my situation with these next few plants :leaf:

whats wrong with amber trichs?
having amber is good just not letting them all get amber is bad. IMO the best time to harvest is when they are 50/50 amber/cloudy.

also i would think that skinnier stocks and stems would mean less bud.

that is my theory any way hope it made sense
Love the analogy MCP, gotta keep the 8 lane highways free of traffic baby!!!! I love fat stalks they are a lot better than fat chicks!!! LOL

Hopefully I can get this box fan in my veg tent soon and help those plants grow fatter stems.

I'm also hoping to hit up the swap meet Saturday morning, maybe I'll fine some cheap useful items or some cheap oscillating fans

Just started a seed I got from some Blueberry Hawgsbreath I bought last week. Couldn't ask for a healthier looking seed, hoping to get a male and breed it with my Casey Jones :leaf:

Finally invested a little bit of money into my grow, mainly just rearranging the veg tent and working on my ventilation...

Here are a few pics of the veg tent. I bought a small white shelf at Home Depot for $23, it's only 23" wide which fit perfectly into my veg tent giving me more or less about 2' x 3' of space to veg plants in bigger pots.

And the ventilation "upgrade"

All I did was get a 6" to 4" reducer to hook up to the flower tents exhaust and added some 4" ducting

IMGP2421.jpgIMGP2422.jpg

This is the fan on loan that pulls in fresh air from the window into the flower tent

IMGP2423.jpg

I added a "coupler" between the flower tent and veg tent, since the flower tent usually runs cooler than the veg ten I'm hoping that with the veg tent completely sealed, the 4" exhaust will create enough suction to pull in the cooler air from the flower tent

The veg tent exhausts into the flower tent

Here is the complete set up, I'm hoping this will fix my heat issues I'm having for now. All I need to finish my ventilation is a window fan so I can hook up my intake and exhaust to it

Thanks man, I won't know until after tonight when I run everything at full power. I had to spend the night somewhere else because I bombed the apartment for flea's so I turned the settings down to keep the grow room door shut, didn't want to risk over heating when I wasn't monitoring...

I still have a few things to do before my ventilation is fully done, then I gotta save up to replace that 4" loaner inline fan and THEN I can start looking at LED's or a new hood. Seems like I've been wanting a new hood and led's for ever now, shit keeps popping up. Next week we're getting our dogs balls chopped, there goes another $200

Thanks man but my wife won't take our dog anywhere but his vet. We really trust them and as much as I'd love to save some $ on this I don't really have much of a say

Hell Na, I'm gonna get me a girl WC and have him make puppies, $$$$$$$
I asked his vet how old he has to be to be able to breed and he said 2 years, that's about a year and a half away. I wish I could breed him and keep some from the litter, fkn Corgi's go for over a grand in SoCal, and tri-colors for even more

The Bluberry x Hawgsbreath cracked soil today. I'm going to try cloning it then sexing the clone to see what it is, hope it's a male to do some breeding but I'll be just as happy with a female :leaf:

money money money. you can sell corgi's to have the ultimate grow room!!!!!
Trust me, if I had a house instead of a small apartment this is something I would seriously consider. Tri color AKC corgi's go for up to $1300 in California, we were thinking of actually flying out to Idaho to get ours for around $400 - $600. If I didn't have to snip our dogs balls I would definitely pick up a female and at least go for a litter or two, especially if he passes on his tri color genes... A litter of 5 would easily make me $5k to $6k and since I would own the parents I wouldn't have to share the litter

your vet is wrong about the age to breed. i guess it could depend on breed though. what type of dog do you have?
i have a bluenose/american pitbull and he made puppies at 7 months, it was on accident but shit happins. as long as they have some sort of balls they can breed

I think I might chop Delilah #5 soon, she's on day 70 and is starting to show lots of male flowers. I think she's probably root bound or I have a light leak somewhere, that's the downside to having my lights run at night, it's hard to keep the grow room completely dark during the day. The 6th one is doing fine in her smart pot, she's not as tall but a little more stocky, I think Delilah #7 will probably be the last one, she's only about 3 weeks vegged in a party cup. If I were able to grow one the same way I did the first one I'd keep her but after 4 tries and nothing it just seems like a waste of space. I'm going to need room soon anyway for the California Hash, seed from SB#2 and seed from Blueberry x Hawsbreath, which is a week younger than the Cali Hash but is already taller at 2 days sold

He's a Welsh Pembroke Corgi

I think you're right about letting them mate young but when I asked my vet I asked when was the "best" time to let your dog breed and he had said 2 years. The thing is AKC dogs (IMO) are like good weed genetics, there are good breeders and shitty breeders. I think the point of letting the dog mature to 2 years old is to show how "big" or healthy he is, some pure breeds have certain genetic health issues so it's important to let them mature to see if they show any signs of bad genes.

My next dog will be a rottweiler :D Had one for 11 years and I miss her all the time
