Carport Greenhouse 2010

Ugg. Just the idea of having to trim that much makes my fingers ache.

I am pretty amazed at how big these plants will get when they are started early inside and pampered throughout. In my geurilla grow one of my plants now occupies around 30 horizontal square feet of space (the big bud). I had to help stake it out in all directions over the course of the grow in order to keep all areas getting sunlight, and even growing in my soil, with guerilla level care (out of necessity), it still occupies a lot of footage.

They will definitely take advantage of all the area available to them. Just amazing plants. Marijuana is an awful drug and has me hooked ... on growing it. :)

Still here! I'll get around to some pic's & vid's soon, but not right now.

I'll get about 2.5lbs from the GDP.

Probably get, 3-3.5lbs from the PK & 2 each from the WW's.

I should have gotten more from the WW's but they got to big to properly maintain. So I've lost a couple of pounds, to me falling off the ladder & bugs, & the PK being planted too close. If your gonna grow them this big, 2 plants will fit in this greenhouse. I don't think I'll grow them this big next year.

I also have a 1/3 interest in another one of these carport greenhouses, that I built & planted, for a friend, that I have to help trim. He may have as much or more in his greenhouse, & they are also ripe! Oh my aching fingers!

peace

doublejj i'm new here, but i see that you've successfully created a hybrid between different marijuana strains and the cali coast redwood tree. well done! *clinks glass:hump:

take some shots of the buds hanging around when you're trimming and drying, that'll be a hell of a view.

are you going to make hash? you'll probably get at least a pound of it lol

Hello jj-
Nice to see that things are starting to wind down a bit.
I'm luving your hash making set up,.....just dial it in and let it rock. Is that a bubble bag in the 5 gallon bucket? If so what size, if not what is it?
Stay safe brother, and i'm looking forward to see your final numbers.
Take care,
TMB

Hey TMB, good to hear from you.

Yes, they are 100% mesh 5gal bubble bags, I have a 3 bag set 100,55,35mic mesh.

Put the trim into corse mesh 'working' bags & toss them into the washer with about 20lbs of ice.

Run thru a couple of wash cycles & drain. The white bucket doesn't have a bottom, drains into 'ACE'

Run everything a second time, then discard.

I have fun pressing it into nickle pucks. Look close you can see Jeffersons Monticello!

peace

Where did you get the bubble bags from? I need that same set. I'm tired of working that "mesh bottom " only 25 mic bubble bags. Takes forever to drain that bag, in fact it won't drain unless i massage the bottom of the bag. If I had 100% mesh, that would be the ticket, Much quicker drainage.
Send me a link please or send me in the right direction.
Thanks,
TMB-

Hey guy's, took a break from trimming to say hi

I used Maxsea fertilizer throughout. Both the veg & bloom. This stuff is great! I hand water every day as needed.

If I had a bigger greenhouse, I would use a second light. (And quit giving me ideas!)

Yeah the washing machine is the way to go. It's like doing laundry without all the folding. The "Doper" has paid for itself already.

I caught a sale on craigslist for the bags from this company. These 100% mesh 5gal bags drain pretty fast. Made almost 4 oz of hash in about 2hrs of sitting around & drinking beer.

I love that quote. Jefferson is one of my favorite presidents for a bunch of reasons, but that quote of his always makes me smile.
whenever I google that quote it only shows up on pot message boards and people quoting it.. I have never seen a real text with those words...

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080425010852AAidqFj

actually it's just a quote that is from a movie and people use it on the internet, jefferson never said that at all

http://wiki.monticello.org/mediawiki/index.php/Some_of_my_finest_hours_have_been_spent_on_my_back_veranda,_smoking_hemp...(Quotation)




washington did say this though

August 7, 1765: "--began to seperate (sic) the Male from the Female Hemp at Do--rather too late."

Well, I have been to Montecillo, & it pretty much looks like the image on a nickle! lol!

doublejj
P.S. Oh, I forgot to say that I pre-weigh each nickle, so they are 1g pucks

Thank you Professor Dog. :)

(still love the quote)

Doublejj, that nickle is funny as hell. I saw it and was; yep, I am so going to steal that idea and do that. As to the "Doper" that is just too damn funny. If I ever grow as much as you have I think I will invest in a doper of my own. This year I am just using the drill and homer buckets. I do plan on building a little stand to hold my bubblebags so I don't have to hold it while they drip. I'll just get it started and go do something else for an hour or so and let the stand hold it.

History channel did a special on the Founders and they confirmed that almost all of them grew and smoked the hell out of it. it was seen as very prestigious to be clothed in all hemp because it was considered as "the fiber of the land." it was law that if you were a land owner you had to save your best acre for "hemp", so that was really the first pot law in the US. all the original documents were drafted on hemp too. let me know if you want all the links for that ^^

I never said he didn't smoke. I just said That quote only exists on the internet in people signatures and in some old movie. if you could show me a document with that actual quote I would be stoked. I CAN find documents where Washington talks about seperating males and femals, I totally believe that they smoked. I just think the quote from Jefferson is bullshit.

Everyone knows all the founding fathers grew hemp for rope and paper and had to grow it in times of war, you learn that shit in high school/college.

doesnt anybody here own The Emperor Wears No Clothes? It's got all the info about hemp in there, I'm sure if the Jefferson quote was real Jack would of found that too.



Sorry doublejj, not trying to thread jack. man I would love to smoke one of those nickle pucks of hash right now! looking great!

indeed..
that jefferson quote is not really anything more than legend. im sure he did smoke it, he for sure grew it. but that quote isn't found in any of his journals. That very thing was recently talked about on NORML show live.
