thanks wonder and doe, you guys are my main supporters and i really appreciate it. the girls look great today!! they look like they responded very well to the added nutrients. the buds look even bigger today. and the leaves are looking better and trying to recover. just a little noob problem but i dont think its a big deal. have you taken you ph tester out the box yet wonder? i think that was my problem mostly. oh ya wonder i'm ready if you are now. deff would want you to take a first hand look at my girls.

also think my girls have finally stopped growing tall. my big girl is 47 inches tall from the top of the soil. the other two are right behind. when i put them in 12/12 my big girl was 22inches so about double in size now.

Hey BSB...I see you're in Alaska. If I were you i'd try some melted snow-water as that will take care of any pH problems...been using that the past 2 grows and the plants really like it!

so last night the worst thing that could have happened, well fuck, it happened. thank god the damage was minimal but my reflector in the flowering room decided to pull out the drywall it was hung to. only one side pulled out and i was home, thank god. was walking away from the room when i heard a crash and glass breaking sound. jaw dropped and i spun around. my 11 pound reflector was handing by one side but the bulb was still on. the only real damage was when the 7 foot chain came crashing down on a nice bud arm. the arm"s only bent, and didn't break.

needless to say, i was going to put up 2x4's after my harvest, but this little happening changed that. went to a friends and got 2 2x2 and installed them w lights on yesterday. the whole deal only cost me 15 minutes of darkness and no damage. god must love me and my plants cuz really this could have cost me everything. could have crushed my plants and broke the bulb and fucked up the reflector but it didn't. thank you god. next update tomorrow or wednesday

Glad there isn't any real damage. Every once in a while I hear a noise upstairs and go running. I had a piece of sheet metal fall recently which scared the shit out of me....

all is well in my world today. just got done watering and snapped a few lights out pictures. the buds are looking bigger each day. guess TW takes a wile to grow, something like 9-13 weeks. cant wait till next month when my first harvest comes.

i've decided to give the TW a break after this so i traded my 3 clones. i received a few different clones but they didn't last long. forgot to transplant when i got them in rock wool, and i set them under the light and left for a few hours. guess thats not to smart, but i still got faith in at least one of the clones.

the big update is a few more strains for next time. got 2 afgooey (sp?) 1 white widow, 2 flo and 1 purple widow in the veg room. decided to leave the light on 24/7. also got 2 natural Co2 bags for the flowering room. only 15 bucks for 6 months of Co2.

in the pictures the front buds are all one plant. shes my mutant. the back two are both taller and only one main cola. she has 3 main colas and is my fav. cant wait to taste her.:lol:

you can also see my leaf curling problem in picture 6. any suggestions? on second thought that is the plant that grew too big and got too hot.

They look nice, already getting frosty! I see what you're talking about - the "eagle claw" look? I'm hesitant to suggest a cause, I don't wanna steer you wrong. I think it's one of the first signs of overfeeding, but take that with a grain of salt, cause I'm not for sure.

Those are looking real good. Looks like those clones are going.... The little Flo is pretty small, probably a little to small of a clone to begin with..... Flowering room looks great. I would like to get to the bottom of the curling top leaves as mine hasn't healed yet either.

thanks doe and wonder. that frosty top is my big girl and judging by the trichomes i think shell get the chop first. i cant wait. the hairs on the frosty nug are turning from clear to yellowish/ light brown. the afgooye and white widow clones are looking great, perky as shit and are about 10 inches tall. thinking ill throw them in the 12/12 soon. my 2 flo's and purple widow have all came back to life. all three look good and are now growing again. next round of clones will be blueberry, skunk#1, and ak-47. i love my caregiver.

I would love to try Blueberry, but I've heard it tends to like to hermie, and has a smaller yield. Probably try it anyway one of these days (are there not just a hundred strains you wanna try out! lol) but in the meantime, sign me up to watch yours grow!

Afgooey was real dark bud as I saw it too. brown/ green type of color, with exotic orange hairs and plenty of small trichs. Had musty type flavor. It was def good smoke. Any idea on the breeder of the blueberry? I have really wanted to try Dutch Passion's or DJ Short's Blueberry. I have heard the DP BB has a tendency to hermie.

I bet your flowering room is taking off? What nutrients are you giving them? day 35?

thanks doe, i'll probably do what you did after i finish my first grow. things are looking good next month.

i've read that also about the hermie thing, guess we'll see.

`ya i would say more brown then green. like a desert dank.

no clue on the breeder but i'll look into it.

35 days tomorrow. the tw is getting its first dose of beastie bloom and grow big tomorrow, along with the normal big bloom and tiger bloom.. just got done with 3 weeks of open sesame. i follow the fox farm feeding chart almost to a T, just not using full strength the first time.
