thanks man
I checked out the Philbrook today in Tulsa. It exceeded my expectations. Lots of wicked cool art. Here is one on display of Huntington Beach, California. This artist had a room with black and whites representing environmental nightmarish shit.

I was pleasantly surprised to see my Ole Professor from UCBerkeley representing in the house. Richard Shaw . He was a cool cat. He was friends with Ed Hardy and had him come to a speak at class one day.

*****************************************
I like the irony of this painting. The room it hung in was fantastic. Lots of super old furniture, carpets and decorative old heavy drapes.

Yes, amazing detail. I love that drawing. It reminds me of my last summer spent in Los Angeles. What a Disgustingly filthy place. My car windows were always coated with a thick layer of black smog. I kept windex and a roll of paper towels in my car trunk to clean my windows of that dirty black coat of smog almost daily. The beach was littered with oil balls. They were these black encapsulated humongous jellybean shaped monstrosities. If you stepped on one and the hot goo exploded on you, you were totally fucked unless you had rubbing alcohol to get it off your feet. I unknowingly ....naively stepped on one and I couldn’t get the shit off with water or a paper towel. I was so kinda scared of the toxic properties i asked the lifeguard, what the hell?. He nonchalantly told me what it was and that the beaches are always covered in them and told me how to get it off.

I drew another bird today.

I found a really cute gif of an identical pair of lovebirds as Pickle and Ghostface.

Nora is looking quite perky!

Today I transplanted Nora to a 1 gallon smart pot. Her roots look terrific! It was Avery smooth transition. Her party cup shape stayed bound together when I slipped her out and into her new home. Then a good slow soaking and she looks might happy!

Namaste my friend.

Indeed.

I got Nora a few new toys today. A new watering container, a new heavy duty plastic water saucer and a couple good luck gnomes to keep her company!
:razz:

Ready for Take Off!

My set up is this.
:leaf:

Humidifier full refill daily running on a timer for her 12 hours on.
:leaf:

Heater on low daily and cranked up at night for 75- 83 degrees 24/7
:leaf:

Oscillating fan positioned just inside the open door to pull in fresh air 12 hour daytime. Door is slightly ajar, approximately 4 inch opening while light is on.
:leaf:

Light at approximately 28 inches above Nora on 12/12. Off at night .
:leaf:

Feeding check as needed. On the weekly feeding schedule provided.

Hopefully she rebounds quickly from the transplant.
Cheers

Hello friends
I Mixed some fresh food for Nora. I jumped to Week 1 bloom feed schedule. Mixed up half gallon solution by cutting the dose in half. My PPM reading was 560. I thought that was a big jump from her last feeding of around 300 PPMs so I added more distilled water and cut it down to 470 PPMs. There are a lot of ingredients to mix. She seems to enjoy eating them all! :weed:

Have a nice week! :peace:

I got really enthusiastic about ph-ing for a while. Now I try and mix any nutes in a way that I know the ph range will be around were I want it. It feels wrong to me using ph up and down, but hey, my water seems to be a bit crazy crazy at the moment so needs must. Hope Nora is doing well. Hows the mild mannered janitor doing? not karate chopped anyone yet

Dr.Amber Trichome · Apr 5, 2019

Hello amigo! Oh very good! Everyone is very well, gracious.
Yes I feel your pain. I never ph. I only ppm. I love to ppm. It’s interesting to travel with a ppm meter and take tap water readings in different parts of the country. My tap now is 440. What’s your tap? I hate ph pens. I don’t use em. It’s bad enough I gots to calibrate a glucometer everyday with those stupid low and high drops. Fooey!

I don't actually know and I don't have a ppm meter, but we just tested the hardness and it was 1, whatever that means (we bought a new dishwasher and that was part of the set up).

I have a water softener and it has the option of using KCl instead of NaCl. It is more expensive but the added potassium is good for everything and less sodium is a good thing as well. We use 90% less soap for everything.

It is a pain to refill the softener with three 40 pound bags of KCl every three months but worth it.

I was amazed when I pHed the rainwater here. 5.7! The plants always looked so happy after a rainstorm and I wanted to know why.
I checked my hose water and it was 8.0!
Bought some phosphoric acid at the farm store and figured out that two pumps of acid in a 5 gallon Home Depot bucket filled with hose water gave me 5.7.
Plus the acid is great for removing calcium and rust from metal.

Cheers,
Mo

Wow that is impressive. I just remembered the last nute line I used was ph buffered which is why I don’t think I ever had ph problems. I haven’t used this current nute line before so I hope i don’t have ph problems. That is some nice stacking and the trunk is so thick. What strain is that?

Dr.Amber Trichome · Apr 17, 2019

She is a month old today and really starting to stink.
I don’t know how I am going to control this odor. I leave the closet door a jar about 4 inches for intake and outtake fans ( I consider the fan that sits at the door opening facing in towards Nora my intake fan and the fan in the inside corner pointed out toward the door my out take fan) .adding carbon filter with the door open seems pointless. I have an air purifier fan so I set in the room outside the door on today so maybe that might help cut down the stench a little.

She is 28 inches from the light like u told me to do when I started. I didn’t realize it should change. I thought her lower limbs looked weak and dumpy Did I ruin everything? how much weed do you think she will produce? I’m following my feeding schedule and my PPMs are at 700 right now is that too high? Omg I could cry. I’m going to have a meltdown . All that work for nothing.

Doc Turn The Other Bank On When Your Girl Breaks Ground. Then Move The Light To 28 Inches Above The Top Of Your Cup That Will Give You About 375 umols And Leave It Their. If Your Lady Starts Stretching Too Much For Ya Move It Down A Couple Of Inches.

I Ment For You To Leave It At 28 Inches And Let Your Sexy Lady To Grow Up To It. No You Have Not Ruined It Just Lower Your lamp To 14 Inches And Maintain 14 Inches Above Your Canopy And You Will Be Fine :weed:
