That's good to hear, thanks for the help.

Great grow, I can't wait to see how it turns out. Good job.

Hey thanks dude. Tell your Dad hello. he's a pretty cool cat.

Just a joke, Silentbobs son didn't mean anything bout that.

Anyways I made a little picture trip to see how things were a growin'. Not too bad considering the run of hot dry weather, multiple days of 100 degree temps in a row. You have to look good in some of those pics to see all of the ganja hidden. LOL I'm glad I topped everything this year, it's sure made them less conspicuous and has produced more branching which we all know carries the gold.. Tried to get the FIM technique on some it worked pretty good. Got a little LST action going on the last one. All in all not too bad for this early in the season. Enjoy...

Looking great!! You can hardly see most of them, well done. When do they usually start to flower for you?

Man thats hot!! It's only been in the upper 70's and lower 80's for us. Just great weather for doing anything outside.

Hey thanks cph, usually by mid sept everything is in bloom. I let some go until mid oct last year and it was just solid golden trichs.

I finally went to radio shack and got one of those pocket scopes. Looking at some of that bud just blows me away. How amber and plump all the trichs are. Couch lock stuff, LOL.

LOL, I think that's when the real work begins. Hey mygirls the clones are looking good too! THX

Yeah, it's looking nice. Reminds me of the clearcut grows I used to do back home.
Good job in hiding them.

I like like the fimming technique, as well. Getting ready to cut the tops of my girls in a few days.

Thanks man, yeah I always liked that big main cola on the untopped plants but these Fimming tricks really spread the girls out and helps hide them.

The clones seem to be rooting pretty well. Lots of roots visable at the soil line on them.





I left the humidity tent wrap off overnight to allow the soil to dry some and they did great. I was afraid they would be wilted or stressed but look a lot better. <pic with lights still on>


I'm not sure how much longer before they're ready to set out but I may start exposing them to a little sun in a few days. I can't believe how easy it was to have 13 plants that size in such a short amount of time. I can see why cloning gets such high praise. Sign me up...

doing agreat jop.keep it up

aye aye,

man this heat is a bitch. Actual temp yesterday hit 104F with a heat index of 108F. Same expected for the next several days with no rain in the forecast....it's already 92 feels like 97 right now before 11 am...grrrrrrrr looks like another wet underwear day.

oh well, this is the life I have, suck it up and GET BACK TO WORK!!!! LOL

Almost forgot to mention the damn wild hog I found bedded down in one of my plots. And yes those tusks are razor sharp. Put some sausage in the freezer for later to go with the venison...

Now that's what i'm talkin about!! You straight went " Lord Of The Flies " on his ass!! I'm diggin' your grow Slab!! Sucks ass about the heat, well probably more the humidity, but at least you've got sunshine!!! I swear, seems like every third day up here is overcast, or drizzly. Heinous!!! Good luck with your grow bro!!! And remember to stay hydrated!!!! You need water just as much as your girls do!!! But what am I talkin about, you know that! Keep up the good work!!! Scribed + rep!!

And I just gotta say since it just came to me, anyone who says or thinks cannabis lovers are lazy or unmotivated is talkin out their ass!!!! Feel me? WE DO WORK!!!!!

LOL on the Lord of the Flies! Hell yeah had some of the sausage this morning. MMmmmm mmmm.

You got that right riz. If it was too easy everyone would be doing it. Well except for the lazy unmotivated ones. Ha!

Yep, plenty of water is a requirement don't ya know? And Off, and dry clothes, and good tools. Hey thanks for checking out my grow, seems like we have a lot in common. Best of luck to you too. I'll be watchin' it...

.........................................................

Man this summer sure has been dry. At least I've got a pretty good watering hole in the creek bed.




Sprayed neem on everything and watered with the MG half strength.


There was these fish that kept coming up to me while I was getting water. Ha






Anyway the ladies were looking good and needed water. I lost track of the trips but it was a pounds worth of MG used all up at 2.5 tbs per 5 gal water. That's were most people screw up using MG is by mixing it too strong.





So today I tried some supercropping on about a half dozen <thanks genfranco>. I accidentally broke the top right off of one, whoops. I should see about starting some more clones. I think all the first batch are ready. Didn't lose a single one of them.


I bet that male garden has burned completely up. I just haven't been able to check on it. Another hot day forecast, High today calling for 104f with heat index 105 to 110f. That's miserable folks.


Anyway thanks for checking out my grow and stay tuned for more adventures. There's always something interesting happening.
In closing, Here's some pretty ladies in waiting...

I made a trip to see about the males I have growing in a separated spot. I must say that's about my worst grow ever. What was I thinking? Ha, should've killed them all as soon as I could have. That was a lot of wasted work on some spindley underwated males. I was able to harvest some more pollen but I don't think I'll be investing anymore time with them tending them. Ha, like I was anyway! Oh well I think I have enough pollen collected to do a limited breeding program. Just enough to have a few seeds for next year. That's all I need. Ha!
Anyway I might just buy me some of those city slicker seeds for next year and make some clones of them. Do a little FIM and some supercropping and have some shore enough couch lock smoke to relieve the aches and pains.

Looking good slab!! Props on all the work you put into your grows! I bet you do fine on your breeding project.

Not trying to make you feel bad or anything but my weather yesterday was 82 deg mostly sunny with a slight breeze.
