Hey thanks Don! I think the little one has been better than both her parents, so I'm anticipating her getting more than she can carry ;) Hope you and your lady have a good one, too. You gonna go see the fam?

Update

Not too sure how I feel about the progression of this grow. Let me clarify; I'm not happy with it thus far... meaning that this Mama SCROG was probably a bad idea. I'll give it another few days to see what she does.

The Deadhead OG is doing ok. She's establishing well, and showing relatively healthy new growth. Lambsbread is so so... getting better, but still not looking amazing. The Agent Orange, though, is the one that is confusing me the most. Half the plant looks super unhappy (see unhappy leaf pic), and the other half looks happy as hell (see happy leaf pic). Yesterday and today I've foliar fed with a simple casting/kelp/molasses tea, and yesterday I soil drenched with said tea. I was digging around in the Deadhead and AO and noticed they are starting to spit out new roots from the rootball, so hopefully they're almost there. I did pick a couple leaves off of the AO that looked like they were a result of root rot, but my soil honestly isn't that wet.

I'm pretty irritated right now with myself. I'm going to try and be patient. Here's some pics. :peace:

Hmm not really sure what problem you may be having. Half the plant unhappy while the other half is? Possibly disease?? If the pictures are representing the colors of the plant correctly you may need some nitrogen. If youve gave nitrogen and plants arent responding you may be experiencing lockout. Hopefully the camera and lighting are changing the way the colors look...are they light green? You just added the scrog net right? IMO, It can be a form of high stress training right off the bat but as the plant adjusts it becomes low stress.

I need to re up my medical card and id like to do it near a high quality reputable club for clones. Any suggestions?

Iv had issues with flowering mother plants (scrogged as well). I felt like it being extremely rootbound had something to do with it.... Have you checked your runoff ph?

I did forget to mention the terrible color shift that I didn't correct as much as the first shot. They are pretty good color wise, and have plenty of fuel in their pots, so they should be set... I put the net in almost a week ago, so was hoping they'd be close... however... VVVVVVVVVVVVVVV

(Oh, and Aev, I'll pm you the name of my Doc. He's not the cheapest one out there, but he is super legit in terms of what he's been put through by the system and still passed. And then you can just hop over the bridge to Harborside for your clones :) That's where I'd go, at least.)

They were pretty damn rootbound, so I broke off all the rootbound shtick and threw em into their soil. I'm using straight Vermifire as a base soil this round, which is supposed to be ultra hot. I was only going to give them a week before I flipped them, but now I'm thinking I might make it two so the root system develops more. Thoughts?

Oh, and I haven't checked ph runoff yet, but I've been watering with rain water (which pHed fine). . .

A week is still short for the stress..give them some time. Thanks for the info!

3 different strains in one giant 32"x32" scrog. This could be trouble. :fire:

:peace:
Haha you should know better than that ^ ;)

I thought you had a pic of your garden but I couldn't find it. Still thinking your soil is on the hot side, that would account for the early leaf curl. Things have a way of staightening themselves out give it a couple more weeks.

Have a great day bobro and fam and happy new year!

Whoa, that is pretty weird. There were a bunch more shots on here. . . I think RIU did an update or something the other night... musta lost them.

I'm an inch away from scrapping everything and just starting over. I am an irritated Bobo this morning... that's for sure.

Pictures STILL not working for me. SCROG is looking a little better today though... she is slowly coming to life, looking perkier, seeming happier. More leaf praying going on. Darker greens. She might just pull through. Once I feel like we've made it past all the muck I'm weaving all dem branches and flipping her (them) into 12/12. Hopefully within the next week or so that'll be the case. I don't want to veg too long with the 600. . . pricey little fucker she is.

Happy New Year peoples. Here's to more MJ legalization in 2013. :peace:

Yes, more legalization PLEASE!!! especially in my state, pretty please!

I did the math and Im paying roughly $1.50 a day (18/6) to run it and thats including cooling fan :-) Lets just say Iv cut back on my sigs to make myself feel better about running it with such small babies under it lol.

Glad to hear they are doing better :-) buuuuuuuut pics or it didnt happen! hahaha
ps, I still cant upload either.
:peace:

It feels like we're getting there, Whodat! In our lifetimes, at least, lol. FFS. It's really taken on a different feeling here... in my area people just act like it's legal, minus the federal raids on dispensaries. Thanks Obama for nothing. I like it, though... Free Weed!

$1.50 ain't too bad. They really ding us here... 12/12 with a fan boosts my bill over $100 a month. I feel like the plants do quite a bit better under the 600 though, so it's pretty much worth it from what I can tell. No excuses.

I'll get some pics going here... if they ever let us. I swear I just saw some on another thread update. Maybe it's time to try again. . .

Zing! So it is. I'll try and sneak down again for an update. Cleaning up the Bobopad right now for Mrs Bobo. Gotta keep the Boss happy ;)

Thanks CCG! Glad to have you along for the ride. It's still pretty rough over here. I'm never fucking with mother plants again when I do this. Next round is going to be all main lined and legit.
