06/24/16 Coddling leaves are starting to unravel. nice green color 3 100w cfl. husk is off.

I love how fast she is progressing. Health green color in coddling leaves and first jagged edge leaves. She is 2 inches high. If I get to much stretch while in the cup I can bury it when I transplant. Right now the distance is a good hieght. Eventually way down the road I wil take a clone for a mother plant. The needs of a mother plant are what I need to learn before then. I have cloning powder. I get a 90 percent success rate in cloning. I'm also going to have a mother plant of my sativa DOM. Because both of these plants could carry me for a few grows. I have a good amount of seeds because I clone when I can.

Update

06/27/16 Thin single leaves. 2pair of 2. 1 in each direction. healthy green.
06/28/16 Got the first set of 3 leaf leaves. She looks happy. Leaves are touching the inside of cup.
06/29/16 Watered. Doing very well. Nice green color. Leaves reaching out of the cup.
06/30/16 Doing well. 1 more day in the cup. Tomorrow in the 5 gallon pot.

Missed a few days. Been in pain. She is going strong. Had a real bad night last night. So I'm transplanting tomorrow. Then I will have a picture to share. She is a bit more compact then I'm accustom to growing. Hopefully I can get her to spread her wings in the big pot and increased light. I thank those that told me to use a 2 gallon pot. I'm willing to put extra time in to get more bud. This time I will not fail on the dry and cure. I have you guys to back me up. I want to take her a 4and 1/2 feet or a full 5. I also open her up and put lights in parts that don't see light. I'm just crazy. I know I will surprise you on what I can get from CFL's. My profile pic had surupy goo in many places. She was a 4 foot monster.

07/01/16 She is in 5 gallon pot. Has 4 CFLs on here. She is in the Veg/Flower portion of the closet now.

Picture later today or tommorrow. Want to wait for the stress to wear off.
She looks great in the pot. Finally in the place were the magic happens. Based on the over night growth. I think she is just starting Veg. One of my favorite times. Love the tieing open of the plant. The trimming. This is the time I can make her the shape I desire. With so many ideas in my head. From seeing so many grows since I last grew. Support is going to be a major focus as she grows. Getting the light where I need it is a high priority. Air flow I have covered. I love watching the leaves in the wind. You can't help but smile. By recommendation it says to go low on the nutes. When buds appear I'm doing straight water. I will try to leave enough fan leaves behind to support the plant. I like the idea I read about the plant breaking itself down in the near end. Never was a flusher. This time right as flower starts I'm going to flush. Then I'm going to add Molases to the water. Then straight water. I know I'm so far ahead of myself. Just thought I would pass out my plans.
I'm so happy to be in the big pot. Thank you guys!!

20160702_071536.jpg 20160702_071546.jpg 07/02/16 Adjusting to the big pot nicely. More spread out. 1 leaf still is cupped. Fan direct contact.

Morning everybody. She has 1 leaf that has cupped on one side. I think it was the cup it was in. I had it only half full of dirt to keep it warmer. Whrn I removed her. She had a cupped leaf. Picture time...

I don't think that they at too stupid to understand. the drug wars gave them a lot of power and money. MMJ takes away some of that power and gives it back to the people. government really hates that :):):)

Actually they do as MJ is about to go federally legal for medical. The news was leaked not long ago that it will be rescheduled from a 1 to a 2 making it a prescription drug. The DEA announced yesterday that they already have the FDA initiative. Unfortunately they intend to kill recreational in the process.

I have not heard that rumor but bernie sanders recently introduce legislation to move cannabis to a schedule 2 drug. we need to contact our congressman and ask them to support this

Thank you. After they are in veg and of decent size I tie it open. Pull branches towards the wall without breaking them. I then get more light in there. Topping. When the first set of preflowers come out. I cut them all off. Then I don't touch them. I found this bushes it out nicely. I trim off fan leaves that are covering bud sites. I also trim others that are not in good spots. This time around I'm going to flush as it goes into bud. Then water only. Zero nutes. Make the plant use the fan leaves. I have never done that before. I think that will improve my quality by a lot. Thank you for your interest. Welcome to the group. Can't wait to see your grow.

07/03/16 Cupped leaf now ok. Center has new growth plant is small not mmuch hieght. Healthy.

Shorter than I'm used to. Very healthy. Looking nice. Need to weight for it to explode into veg. Then I can see what I've got. On paper this plant has what I need to be healthier and happier. I hope she starts getting taller. Not a low rider fan.

Cool, I like your strategy 9leaves, looking forward to seeing it play out. No nutes in flowering, that's wild! Hey I don't want to hijack your thread, but since you mention it I did recently post some info and pics about my first grow, which I actually just harvested yesterday! It's here in the grow journals section. Anyway, keep up the good work! (:

Thank you. Thank you so much for following me. You haven't hijacked my thread. I asked for help and opinions. My soil has nutes in it. Per the lookup on the strain they recommend little nutes if any. She is growing well.

07/04/16 Lowered lights. She is now perking up more. Some leaves are more sativa then indica.
07/05/16 6 leaf leaves are now present. Topped the center. Happy green plant
07/06/16 Seeing new growth from the topping. Happy in veg.
07/07/16 Gave a gallon of water. Center showing even more growth. Enough nutes in the soil as recommended. Day 16.
07/08/16 She is showing her lady parts in the center. Bushing out real nice. Love the way she grows.

Updates from my sheet. I do need to get a picture. She is doing so well and is so happy. I can feel it.

Here is a picture from a past grow. I did struggle with it a bit. Then I screwed up the dry and cure. This was also under CFL's in the closet behind the plant. I defoliated this plant. I will never take that many leaves off again.

07/09/16 Nice bush growth. Need to trim under. Let air flow. Earliest I ever lollipoped.
07/10/16 Just moved leaves around to get more light in. Pulled a few dead spots. Deep inside zero light.
07/11/16 Lollipoped today after I got new cutters. Perked the entire plant up.
07/12/16 This morning I see the branches that have gotten stronger because of the fan. NICE :=)DAY 21 since ground break.

Had some phone issuse. Will try to get a picture up soon. The lollipop made her grow more. There is much more air flow. First time with a plant that stays low. Don't know if that is a possitive or a negative. We will see when it starts to flower. If this isn't going to go to far away from the pots then I can do four. Have plenty of lights for all. I also might just cut my lose and try another seed after its full term. I know its way to early to judge the end product. Need to review more of the breeders notes on this girl.
