Thundercat's Groooooooow

hey guys, if you wouldn't mind, check out the grow in my sig as I need advice as to whether I can flip these to 12/12 and don't wanna hijack ur thread dude by posting it all on here, already made that mistake once... oops!

You know, I've been having to take a small pair of tweezers & gently place the bean. & just press lightly to pop the 8 Bombs & a few of the Hubba Bubba aswell! Although I have found where the so BIG I will take my pocket knife and scrape round the sides of them, just to take that "coating off" or break there seal, then pop um into the water, and theve been doing great 4 me since doing that..

That one I tossed a few weeks back never got topped or anything is the funny thing Ninja, it just got super huge and bushy. I think a big part of it was that it had spent to much time vegging. You guys would have loved the way it grew I imagine in a normal type grow, it was still well under 4 feet and about 1.5 feet around but just to branchy for my SOG. The ones that will get topped will become "moms" and I will flower out the clone I take. This will allow me to sex them easily and leave me with a small managable male I can collect pollen off if I so choose . Rather then having a big monster to deal with. Sadly this whole process just takes time. I was looking at the power naps, and atleast one of them will be ready here in a few more days, I hope the others are big enough I can get a decent clone at the same time. The rest of the seedlings will need another couple weeks prolly to get big enough. I'm gonna run out of room real fast here soon. I've been toying with putting my WW mother in my bedroom with a basic 4 ft floro tube just to keep it gently vegging but not growing a ton.

Edit: I also have to report that my HHB bean did not make it sadly.... I'm gonna prolly try another in the next couple days. I hadn't had anything happening yet, and gave the peat a squeeze to see what it looked like, and it was shot.....not really sure why they weren't overly wet for sure, just moist. The 8 bomb seed just hasn't done anything yet, not even cracked. I soaked it for about 24 hours, and it sank and then I put it in but nothing yet. I'm gonna just leave it till it germs or rots. I gave it a slight spritz of water in case it wasn't moist enough for it, but its in a warm spot, under a dome in the same conditions I sprouted all these other seeds.

I hate having so many ideas, and so little money and space to do anything. I also more then anything want to get into my own house so I can actually build out some rooms. I need twice as much space in my veg room to do what I want. My flower room I just wish I had enough space for one more light that I could run other stuff under.

That sucks 2 hear man. Yeah, the light dose of the fish emullsion worked great! NO more yellowing or spotting of the leaves! I figured that what the deal was. Just needed a slight a bigger dose of the (N) cause its regular "bloom" nutes didn't have enough of the (N). I've had to do it b4 cause of this. Hell my Belladonna's are (N) whores!!

DrOfWelshMagic said:

im having 'leaf' problems with my belladonna's too, and had them on last grow with them too.... hope your N ammendment works dude. though I doubt its the same issue as mine, I've gone the other way this time (3rd week of veg) and reduced the nutes to see if it resolves it.

I'll give that a try on the next one Dank.

Yeah boy Tcat! 4 real it really does help out a lot! Kinda like the "match box" trick! take a strip off the side of the match box to "strike" the matches on. Place that(strip) inside the "box" (use a empty mathc box) duh. lol place the bean in it, shack it side to side to also remove there coating. "Read that one in the grow bible" a few yrs back..

Well I scuffed up 2 more HHBs, and another 8 bomb and tossed them in water today, we'll see if that helps them germ better for me. Not a very eventful day, I'm gonna soak some peat pellets over night to plant those beans tomorrow, and maybe for some clones tomorrow too. My seed order should be crossing the atlantic tomorrow I hope its "preparing to depart" . The powernaps should definitely be big enough to clone with this batch, and the big extrema is going to be as well which is awesome! I think the rest of the seedlings will likely be waiting till the following round to be cloned most are still to small.

Hope that worked 4 ya bro! I don't see why it shouldn't, cause all those beans looked killer, the two I sprouted turned out by scuffing them up a bit! oh & the Bay 11 & Krosher Kush x BP both sprouted & are doing well.

They were cracked when I put them in yesterday, I havn't been down yet tonight, just got home. I hope they come up for sure, they looked nice, and I was looking forward to trying them out! Glad those are working for ya man .

Spent the day at the Dr, and then running around. They said my wrist is looking good, and I just gotta keep wearing this splint and not using it. They shot a few xrays, so I got to see the screw thats gonna be in there from now on.

I'm heading down to see the girls now .

Dang bro! Hope everything gets better with the arm! I know that it sucks to break something. Shewww! I have broke my ankle 4 times man. damnit it hurts awful to when I did! Made me get sick & puke everytime I did. Now there wanting to put screws in it. And put me on pain meds "long term". I really don't want all that, and do believe I'm going to tell the Dr just to keep the shit! Been there, done that! Lol
Sure hopes the girls came up! If not I'm sure they will. I can barely see the
Tops of mine, and they still have that casing over them.

Nice to hear the other doctors sayin that. You havent been posting too many complaints about it so either your tough as coffin nails or its really healing well. Oh and Dank, dont take those pharmasuticals they try and perscribe ya. Thunder Cats got a doctor that cures pain the natural way

That sucks to hear Dank, I'm very thankful mine is going pretty well though I don't know what its gonna be like long term. This is actually the first time I've broken a bone since I was a little kid I've been fairly lucky over the years. I couldn't see any signs of the seeds yet, but it was only the first day. I will say some of my testers are growing fast, there are 3-4 that I seriously might be able to top tonight when I take clones, and the big Extrema is almost the same size as the powernaps with as many or more nodes. This extrema has me excited its structure is insane man!

Hehe well Ninja I've never considered myself super tough, but after having a broken wrist for 9 months this whole surgery thing has been cake. When I was laying there going in the anesthesiologist was telling me about the pain care after and that since I was on meds already they were gonna have to give me so many more...... I told him I had already been working to get off them so I didn't think it would be a big deal, and he just kept going on. Well I only filled one of the scrips they gave me, and only took one extra pill over what I had been on, and that was only for the first 2 weeks. Now I'm back down to were I was before it all, and the pain is still getting better slowly. I am 100% thankful that I had my garden, and my buds ever since the accident last year. I guarantee that all of this would have been much harder without them. I have no doubt the it would have been much harder to get off the painkillers. I know for a fact that cannabis makes a huge difference in my daily pain levels more then I ever had before. I was mostly a recreational smoker (though I appreciated its ability to alleviate regular aches and pains) in the past, but definitely "medicate" now. That being said I really love The Dr I've got but I have sad news....the Dr is in recovery. He took a crack to the base plant but thankfully he is okay! I have to get some epoxy today and make the repair. I'm extremely thankful it will not compromise the performance or function its just cosmetic damage. That being said I may sand the repair smooth and shoot the base plate with some green paint or something to make it disappear.

Well I'm gonna get off here, we are going to drive about 1.5 hrs away to look at a house that we might be able to rent to own. The city its in isn't anything special but its should have better work options when I go back, or for my wife. The house looks really sweet actually, it wouldn't likely be a place to live the rest of our lives, but could be a good place to build equity and credit for the next 4-5 years. The biggest thing that is making us go alll the way to look at it is the back yard. The people that own it had kids, and the back yard has a huge sad box and I believe 2 playground type structures from the pictures. Its also completely fenced in which would be nice for hanging out back there. My current back yard is along the side of a busy street with just a chain link fence around it. We rarely hangout out there, theres no shade, and it feels like being in a fish tank with everyone driving by watching you. Anyway the rest of the house looks pretty nice from the pictures so we are gonna take a look at it. I wasn't planning on moving just yet but if its the right place I'll figure it out! Who doesn't love moving 10 + plants that are 4 weeks flower :facepalm:, along with all the rest and a 2.5 ft sq ww mother. Time to buy more rubber maid totes and a couple rolls of duck tape. I'll try to get pictures tonight when I'm down stairs. I'm gonna get some joints rolled for the car ride and talk to you guys later!

TC

Good luck with the house.

Yeah bro it sucks sometimes (pain) wise, but other then that its cool. Just gotta be super careful & wear hightop shoes! Lol. I have been putting the surgery off! Haha.. and I can't remember if I had told you or not, but I am a 10 yr opiate addict. And proud to say 5 years clean! and can say that "bud" helped me to overcome it all! That and along with the help of my wife.

Equity........yes........good

Well I'm scared as hell to have to move everything, and how its all gonna work out, but I put a deposit on the house today. We are gonna rent it for 6 months or so and as long as we still want to prolly rent to own it. Its got a huge completely fenced back yard for my daughter to play in, a playhouse thing, a sand box. The basement is decent for my work and should be ok. The rest of the house is nice, and fits our needs well. We are excited, just obviously anxious too. We've got 2 weeks to pack everything, decide how we are moving my stuff, and get ready. We are moving like the 27th-1st so its gonna happen fast. lol I'm gonna be as busy as some of you guys are all the time . Well I'm wiped out been a long day I'll see you guys in the morning.

Congradulations man, the place sounds great. I just moved a plant the other day. It was in a five gallon container and i just threw a garbage bag over it and put it on the seat of the car. Id say you could probably do kinda the same with your girls if you just put a bunch of them in a box and put a bag over the top. Maybe a garbage can depending on how big they are. You just have to get them out to the uhaul right?

That's cool bro. It's gonna be a good thing.

Good Luck TC, As they say in the acting fraternity---break a leg man.......no wait.....damn

Thanks fellas! Bilbo I really don't want to break anything else right now, I'm still healing up form the last time lol, but I appreciate the sentiment .

Thanks Kite I sure hope so. I'm very anxious about having to rebuild a room, and in a short period of time 2 days.

Ninja what I should be able to do for most of is what I have in the past and use rubber maid totes stood on end and duck taped shut. I will have a moving truck for us to use so the plan is to load those first hide them behind the rest of the stuff, and then unload them last after my help has left. Then I can spend the next 2 days in the basement while my wife sets up the house. Its worked ok in the past, though I've never moved any thing this far into flower before. Its certainly not when I would have choosen to move, but its when we found a nice place so we'll make it work.

I am soooo far behind all these words are daunting! sorry!
I'll have to start now though, so forgive me for not knowing what the hell is going on lol


Edit: Wish I was around to help ya out! You'll just have to stick with it but you will make it. It will be nice when your settled in,,, do what you can to try and enjoy all this.

Peace
