    i'll be taking smaller pics for a while. i've been taking 4416x3312 which is nice but the memory card is filling up and i'm too much of a cheapskate to buy another one. ha! oh well, 1600x1200 should be plenty, and rollitup dot org downsizes them even more, so who cares

    there are a lot of smaller leaves touching the dirt on the bottom. i dug out space for 'em as best as i could, like maybe 1/4" - 1/2" inch. some are still touching though. that's as far as i'm willing to dig, so i don't upset any shallow roots that might be right under there. a couple of...

    sure. i took these very quickly coz it's nighttime for the plant for 2 more hrs, so they're not great pics. if you need a specific zoom shot or something let me know. edit: this is late into day 29.

    no prob. i just totally appreciate yr help and anyone else who wants to chime in right now i can't decide if i wanna drop $300 on a 2nd 90w UFO light, or continue to use mirrors through to the end. i got UFO #1 on sale for $250. the chances of that happening again are slim to none. or, could...

    ok here ya go, from a few minutes ago. DAY 28. pic 2 - some nodes underneath. 4 sets of nodes are visible from top to bottom pic 1 - on the right side maybe you can see a leaf that grew without a tip. i got about half a dozen missing tips like that, but all newer leaves up above are coming out...

    replying to dr.gruber's info the 3501ppm: well i mean the water has tons of soil particles dissolved in it when it's coming out the bottom. wouldn't you expect that to artificially raise the ppm count really high? it sort of makes sense. i feel like it doesn't matter because i just dump the...

    - i checked runoff water for the first time. i don't really know how to interpret these numbers for runoff, but here they are for future use: 6.46 pH, 3501 ppm, light brown transparent color. - my container is a 5-gallon bucket sitting in another 5-gallon bucket. the inner bucket has a couple...

    hell yea, looking 4ward to your smoke report! it looks like u have done an excellent job raising these monster s :D

    saw one more microscopic white thing walking on the top of a leaf. spider mite, i presume. sprayed w/ Don't Bug Me. don't see any more of them. sprayed under plant sorta thoroughly w/ mid-5's pH water. some of the leaves from right around the heat stress on june 4th have obvious chunks...

    g13 undergoing gigant-o-normous growth, by my standards. i sure hope i can keep it sustained! there's one or two leaves that have come out w/ chunks missing, and sporadically there's a hint of more heat stress on a leaf tip or two, but overall this girl is healthy, nice & wide, and thirsty. i...

    a question for anyone who knows, coz i don't: does water creep upwards over time, through soil or in grow rocks, to become usable by the roots, or does it stay low and get stagnant? or something inbetween?? like if you watered a plant on day 1, totally saturating the soil after runoff, and...

    in all the marijuana research i've ever done, i've never seen someone state this important info in plain English, so i am putting it here for my own own future reference: local loser plant, still growing in an 80oz jar, basically all stem & very few leaves: 1st node or 1st set of leaves: one...

    it's a great idea, i just don't know if it's doable in this particular building hmm. i did think about it, which is why i bought the UFO over other types of lights my friend. rated at 50,000 hours, comes with 3 years of warranty, uses 90w of current, at least 95% of the light it puts out is...

    g13 is experiencing the most massive growth in a 24 hour period to date. previous breaks seem to have healed well. no spider mites visible. despite my mistakes, it is thriving. the #1 enemy continues to be heat, and this atrocious weather isn't helping. i mean nightly lows are around 72-75F, and...

    all pics i've taken so far have had the camera blocking out most of the UFO's light so the intensity really doesn't show up. i'll upload some pics with the camera off to the side and you'll see that there's definitely no light shortage right now. if i look at it more than a few seconds my eyes...

    i know that there will be a light shortage once the plant gets a foot wide or a foot tall, but right now, the power of the UFO is not to be taken lightly :) dude, have you ever seen in the movies where the UFO shoots down a blue laser beam and totally blinds the person on the ground with...

    all breaks seem to have healed partly, maybe even fully. the leaves on the broken branches were starting to curl last night (bad thing) but they actually grew overnight (good thing) and the veins on those leaves are thick enough that i know they are getting nourished (also good thing)...

    its good genes may yet overcome all my stupidity and inexperience ;) plant is lookin' fine. i'm keepin' hope alive. next random thought... depending on who you ask, some ppl swear on their mother's life that you can give toxic amounts of light, and some ppl swear on their mother's life that you...

    it all happened in the span of 5 hours or less, when i raised reflectivity in the grow room and the temp was 86-88. it was the upper leaves on the outer edges. i'm pretty sure it was heat stress. it has not gotten significantly worse since then. well at this point i can only laugh... at...

    on the bright side, if there is one!?, 3 more hrs have gone by & things look the same, i.e. not worse. this is even more evidence of heat stress and *not* nute burn. got another pic. temp around 80.5F.
