No,it was 9 cuttings that I had taken from my best plant and the other four went outdoors.Actually the mother went outdoors too.She got so effin big I knew there was no way I'd be able to keep her all winter so i threw her outside late in the season.She flowered for 6 weeks and got about 4 ounces of premature bud.
Damn bongsmilie...imagine if she could of gone another 4/5 weeks! :mrgreen: would of been a very nice yield off one lady :bigjoint:
What was the bud like?

:peace:

Its a nice plant from what i can see man, nice dogs too :mrgreen:
I love the ol' grow stories...:bigjoint: long or short! :lol:

When i grew my first plant, i dint have no tent or anything, it was just sitting in my sunlounge vegging for ages, when i got round to flowering her, i had to carry her and shuffle out of my house, down my garden steps and into my shed! :lol:, the wind was blowing the branches all over my face and it made me stink of weed where ever i went! dodgy!! :mrgreen: :lol: then i was like...i need a tent man, i can't keep doing this!.... so i got the DR100!, :mrgreen: made my life alot easier, and less aromatic...:lol:

Everythings looking great G4J. I can't comment on hanging the light vertically, never experimented with that. I know what you mean tho haha, I look at my babies everyday and for the past week I haven't seen much of a difference. Guess it's because we look at them everyday lol. bongsmilie

Yo peeps :bigjoint:,
Day 18 of the flowering stage now and all the little bud sites are getting big already :mrgreen:
Again, not much to report..pots feel light so i'm going to feed dem some more nutes tomorow and then the next time will be just water....they haven't had any plain water for the last two feeds now because i wanted to see how they would handle the higher nute dosage... its all good :mrgreen:

The last two pics are of a tiny bud that was part of my christmas smoke..but its been a bit stressfull lately and i had no choice but to dip in....but i only took 0.2......come on......dont look at me like that.....:-P
Anyway its real small and nice'n'dry and she still weighed 0.2! :lol: :mrgreen:
the only problem is i forgot to take a cured pic of the whole bud and now its alot smaller....ok... it may have been 0.2 yesterday but a few days ago i had like a gram off her.....:sad:....i'm sorry...
:mrgreen:
(Its the bud in my avatar) :mrgreen:

:peace:

things are looking quality in your tent mate - hope i can get my plant to look somewhere near that good, plus i reckon you deserve your couple of points of your chrimbo bud after the man ball stress of last week!!

just been back through your thread and pleased to see your plants at day 5 look exactly the same as mine does now - really encouraging mate, did you re-plant yours when you had roots coming out the bottom of the 3" pots?
also i see you started feeding around the 7 day mark but your in light mix - mines in allmix so prob need to wait longer before feeding, have read some threads which reckon on just ph'd water until flower time but surely i'll need to give some grow before then?

Good to hear man..:bigjoint:
I didn't have a schedule or anything for re-potting, i just done it when i thought they looked like they could handle the move...but i would probably say if you can see alot of roots coming out of the bottom then yea re-pot but don't re-pot too early though or you could shock dem..
yea the all mix comes with enough nutrients to last your little one a while man.. you can go probably 3 to 4 weeks just feeding plain PH'd water and then 'Nute em Johnny' :mrgreen:

get it?

:mrgreen:

It was crazy last night! The snow was coming down like a mofo..went out in my car and there were snow ploughs shovelling the roads...I didn't even know we had snow ploughs!! :lol: :mrgreen:
People were going like 15mph took me half hour to do a 5minute journey! :mrgreen:
and then i went to turn down this road and my car just kept sliding! haha! i was going about 5mph and sliding towards this 30mph sign! i was cracking up the whole time..it finished sliding when i went up the grass bank and ended up between a salt grit bin and the 30 sign :lol: :mrgreen: :lol: I missed it! :-P
I didn't get stuck, just drove off the grass and went on my way!! :lol:
The missus weren't too happy though when i came in and told her...she were like :o.. :lol:
There was a powercut aswell.. and it dint come on till mid-morning! The plants were just siting there all night with no fan or ex fan or nothing..and then when it came to lights on...oh dear.. still no power... they went a good 3 or so hours missing out on light...:sad: I said to the missus i said, dem electric people are really extracting the urine....:-P
but they seem all good now.. pics are coming later on... :mrgreen:

Im looking at it just now as its hanging upside down and trying to count the nugs at an approximate weight - i reckon it will be about 2 oz total actually or at least i hope so (gotta hate that weight loss when its drying) - it was my 1st hps grow 250w in a small ikea cupboard 0.5mx0.8mx1.7m - gotta love the hps - what a difference compared to my previous grows - its only going to get better and better :mrgreen:
