For the first time in my forty some odd years now I experienced a downpour of rain on my birthday. In the middle of January! What's going on!!! :confused:

Gardens are looking great guys. Doobie, I'm potting up as well. Things are looking up today and I too think a good pot up will kick these girls in gear real good. I'm holing out because I'm putting in an order for some mycorrhizae and some Effective Microorganisms but I can still add those when they get here. Here's the product. http://www.gardenerspantry.ca/microorganisms/effective-microorganisms.html I'm going to grab some of the activated product as well as the mother culture that you activate yourself.

Also I was looking for worm castings and I came across this that I'm looking into. [url]http://www.redwormpower.com/

Thanks D. lol Never had that before either. Something else I never had was multiple strains of primo ganja to pick and choose from as I please. It just gets better with age.

Happy birthday, duchie!
Hope you have a stress-free day and can relax or at least do what you want!
Sparking up some JTR/DB and Herijuana blend as I type, and wish I could share.

And I hope that wine tastes better than it sounds! ;-)

Nice update DST. That little sprout is cool. I showed it to Mrs. and she's surprised you caught that and didn't just brush it off. So your sporting that new lens eh? How are you liking it so far? Also, about putting humidity in my grow, I'm having a hard time keeping RH above 20, then with lights on (cool tube) I'm below 10. I really think it's having an affect on this grow. IDK, where do you guys like your RH to be in flower?

If you were growing arjan's haze #1, you wouldn't have a leaf on the plant with that humidity. I personally think that is too low for flowering let alone vegging. Jig, I have to disagree with you on the low as possible humidity while flowering. Depending on the strain you are growing I don't mind my humidity around fifty percent or so during flowering, I also have good air movement in my room. Only at night in the summers where my humidity is sky high do I run my dehumidifier at night. I think the danger with humidity above sixty percent or so only really occurs if you have big dense nugs and no air movement in your grow space. If you feel the leaves of a healthy plant they feel soft, if the humidity starts to get to low for the plant you will notice the leaves start to feel a bit dry and rough, just like our skin does when the humidity gets real low. My skin sometimes starts to crack on my fingers during the winters here depending on the humidity levels, plants tend to react the same way indoors, the leaves start to dry and loose their suppleness. I think overall sativas tend to do this more since they are basically an equatorial plant.


Aplomb, I see that word caught your eye too jig. Nice one dst.

Just discovered that one of my JDB Romulan's self-topped itself and is growing two main trunks!
Still no sign of pre-flowers, so the only two I am sure of yet are the C4/Casey's which are females.
BUT, the good news about that is that no balls have appeared yet, so there is a chance for the rest of them!
Will get a pic up here in a bit, after I roll a doobie (JTR/DB) and feed my head a bit.

Happy birthday duchie. If it makes you feel better, it's fifty seven here at six twenty one in the morning with eighty three percent humidity. We're going to have pm showers with a high of seventy six.

In some cities such as Victoria, however, they use chloramine in the water (chlorine and ammonium), which does not dissipate as readily. In this case, a small amount of humic acids or a crushed Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) tablet can be stirred into the water before use...from duchies link to EM.

This is good to know if your water supply uses chloramine. All of my water sits out for days at a time before being used and I brew my teas for about three or four days. One day of tap water just bubbling away, the next day I add maxicrop liquid and my dry ingredients one of which is mycorrhizae and let that bubble away for a day before adding molasses on the third day and then letting it bubble away for another day I started my current batch of tea on monday and it will be ready for use tomorrow.

The seed germinating thing. I've noticed recently that some of my beans want to circle under the dirt before popping through the soil. I planted a green poison and an ak47 x white widow. The green poison came up three days before the ak. I transplanted the other evening and noticed the delay in the ak, it had circled under the soil before popping through. This seems to be happening more frequently than I like. I plant my seeds maybe a quarter inch deep.

What is the jdb in the romulan? Doobie, I'm sorry to say I'm not a big fan of smoking doobies, I think all the tars in my lungs from smoking cigs just doesn't agree with that form of ingestion for me, I will however force myself to partake of this form of ingestion while I'm playing golf...and with all the smoking we do out there, playing is the operative word. I am hard at play while I'm on the green grass of a golf course. Anyway I drift, you roll a handsome joint.

And, praise be to the ganja gods. A buddy stopped over yesterday and he had ordered some beans, more colombian gold and he offered me one when they come in from the royal mail. I feel like it's my birthday, more colombian mmm. I would have to say so far with the I have no clue of how many different strains I've now grown, more than twenty easily, the dog and the colombian have by far been the frostiest, ooiest, gooiest strains I've grown. The shackzilla I have going now is starting to really look like it might rival those two. I have some pics on my phone that this neanderthal doesn't know how to get on riu plus my computer is sick so it needs to see the doc. My lady friend opened an email with an attachment from something she shouldn't have, she felt worse than I did about it. Luckily I have a guy who knows his shit and is very reasonable. He works on them at home, he's retired so usually he's done the same day if I give it to him in the morning.

I believe JDB was the breeder of the strain of Romulan. (*but I'm not 100% sure. Will need 3rd party verification)

As for joints...

... well, to be honest with you, you've probably read it on rollitup websi...I mean riu.org anyways, but I still smoke marijuana joints!
But, I'll tell you something:
I will only smoke them in the late evening.
Oh, occasionally the early evening, but usually the late evening, or the mid-evening...
... so I just, I just have the early evening, mid-evening and late evening, occasionally...
... early afternoon, or the mid-afternoon, or perhaps the late-mid-afternoon...
... oh sometimes the early-mid-late-early-morning...
... but NEVER at dusk!!
I would never do that!
:eyesmoke:
(*an ode to Esteban Martinez)


No, I just do one a day, maybe two or three.
:-)

Smoked cigs for 30 years (started at age 10, quit for my 40th birthday), and defnintely can't do the doobies all day like I used to.
Bong rips and, someday, a vaporizer.

Nice joint brother Doob. Well the calamity continues, lol. I potted a few new Exo cheese into the tray of DOG's that I just cut down. Topped it with some compost and then gave it a light watering. Of course it was then top heavy so when I pushed it onto the shelf, well it fewll over, lol.....all the compost on the shelf (which has holes in) so a lot on the floor and alles, ffs. What a wazzack!!!

Happy Birthday duchie!

You're correct. This strain is his breeding...and unfortunately he was visited by the local barney fife, who seized all of his great genetics. I'm working on restoring what he lost, but some strains are gone forever.

I don't even have papers anymore...just glass

The way I see the humidity thing is that resin is the plants defense mechanism... if there is a TON of light or way low humidity the plant will make more resin to protect it's leaves and other bits. I can't say this is true, but it's what I think.

I've dealt with PM enough to want to attract humidity. I like it as far away as possible.

Also, not dealing with humidity... I think Silica is a great thing to use for our plants. I suggest you try some out. I think it's partly responsible for the fat stems and mostly healthy plants I have. I know some of you pride yourselves in only using 2 bottles for your whole grow. Well... you guys can try it and keep it a secret. I highly recommend it. It's supposed to help protect against disease and pests as well. It's not an elixir additive that claims to grow better, bigger buds faster. It's something to give the plant to make it stronger... and that has to be good.

EDIT: 99% of the time I smoke out of my bubbler. I just love bubblers.
