2nd Grow. Big Mama and her babies.

Buds just started to form heavy. so now is when the growth really starts. the canopy is quite level and is gonna be one hell of a scrog let me tell you!

Some hempy mother buckets. gonna keep the left mom for a while but the 2 on the right i'm just gonna let them get a few clones then strip them all the way down.

I still have to light proof the buckets but I got the foil tape today so i'll do that soon. I also put 4 smaller younger clones in solo cups. I'm extremely surprised at how fast they perked up. leaves only drooped for maybe 30 minutes after transplant. can't wait for the roots to hit the res and start exploding!

Anybody have any hempy advice for someone who wants a perpetual grow? I want to always have a single scrog plant and a perpetual sog going. i consume a lot of medicine.

had a better idea for a hempy bucket. of course i drove to the store and bought 4 jugs of different drinks. guess i know what i'm doing for the next 2 days.. lol

looks good! im subbed up man! that momma is bushy as fuck! keep at it man

polyarcturus · Nov 12, 2012

the foile tape works good for light proofing buckets i did it on my bubble cloners and aerocloners.

crimsonfro911 · Nov 12, 2012

ha thanks bro. You should see her now! I'll take some pics in a few minutes. need to do a little more training lol. and fuck yea foil tape is the fucking bomb. i'm changing containers. I didn't like how flimsy the 2-liters were without tops. I changed em and after I foil tape them i'll put some pics up of that.

Dude, I swore I was subbed to this already???? lol Resubbed

polyarcturus · Nov 12, 2012

2 liters suck for containers i only use them for when clones come out of high humidity, if you know someone that drinks a lot of coffee like i do, those containers are the SHIT!

i would keep an eye out for tupperware too, if found some awesome stuff, sometimes it can be a little pricey but in the long run the stronger the plastic the better.

crimsonfro911 · Nov 12, 2012

yea the new bottles are 1.75 L tea and orange juice containers. i only cut off the very top so i don't lose any of that 1.75L capacity and the plastic is 10 times tougher lol. There's also a bottle neck that allows me to put a zip tie around the top that i can attach more zip ties to for training.

I look at any container and think about the hempy possibilities now hahaha.

ha glad you're re subbed again punk.

Big mama

I think this pic looks really cool. like a thorn bush.

and here's the new container. super thick plastic training possibilities and a perfectly flat bottom that is semi square so it doesn't tip easy.

crimsonfro911 · Nov 16, 2012

cola count today. 56 main colas and i allowed 12 of those to have mini cokes as well.

crimsonfro911 · Nov 17, 2012

i think you doing the right things lol. that gonna be a ton of perfect little nugs. a little too much trim work for me, but keep up the food and you should have a nice canopy of buds.

crimsonfro911 · Nov 18, 2012

yea up until now it was quite a chore to keep her pruned well enough to grow steady all over but we're done with that part! now all I have to trim is a random monster fan leaf here and there. I've been just cutting them in half like you would do with a clone and it makes the leaf stay the same size. Haven't noticed any dying off after it either so i'm gonna keep it up throughout flower. she's gonna look funny but I think she's gonna take well to it.

crimsonfro911 · Nov 18, 2012

Here is what's goin on in the bottom of the closet currently. Just took 4 more clones from a mother and will rotate those into here as well in a week or so. the bushes in the DWC are forming fast so i'll probably pick them earlier than big mama. let her fill out realllll nice

polyarcturus · Nov 18, 2012

ya need some more light!

crimsonfro911 · Nov 18, 2012

I've got a 4 bulb 4 foot t8 mounted to the door which rests 2" from the side of those buds. and i'm also in the progress of wiring up two 2' double bulb t5's.

crimsonfro911 · Nov 19, 2012

mwahahaha is all i have to say. and don't forget the t8 on the wall

.

Here's a mom i just stripped down. 7 happy clones in the aerogarden right now.

crimsonfro911 · Nov 19, 2012

turns out the two extra lights up top makes it hotter than i'm comfortable with so i'm gonna move one down to the bottom.

i would leave it the way it is. hotter than your comfortable but probably not the plants. dont take the temps in direct light either.

crimsonfro911 · Nov 19, 2012

i set the thermometer in the canopy and it was reading 91. it was in direct sunlight. watcha think? now would be a horrible time to stress her lol
