DST's Vertical Step Grow - Headband and Cali Orange

What if ya try and connect two of them together- stacked you know? Cut off the roof on the lower tent, connect it to another on top?
mmmnn, now you got me thinking. But then I think I could build a frame with bits of 2/4. I am sure my local diy sells that green cover....Imagine, a 3m high tree.....better start vegging it now, I've got just the pot for it :bigjoint:
 
Yeah, your bath tub will do.
Lol, now that would be ideal Scotty!!! We spent a little bit extra on our bathroom when we built it. Rainfall showers and Italian designer taps, blah blah. The person who actually helped us design it was a Transsexual (who obviously know their bathrooms.)

We ended up buying an extra deep bath - it's like the most un-envrionmentally friendly thing you seen. Takes up about the yearly national water usage of Ethiopia.

I have got a ten gallon+ pot that is sitting outside full of rainwater at the mo!!! That seems ideal. Better start saving for soil/coco.
 
So here's the Yins, 1 weeks after dialing things in. I have just checked a couple of times through the night that the system had shut down (I actually woke up thinking about it - how sad.) Don't know about others, but if I need to wake up, I just need to tell myself that, and I will generally wake up around 5 minutes before I need to. So twice I was up at 5am checking.... All was good;-).

So fairly happy with the progress. I think the girls that have been in there are happier. The Cliff Babies are still settling in. Triple T hasn't done much, looks a bit sad to me, but it has turned upwards. Will keep my eye on it. The little Headband seems to like it, as you can see, it has also got the little bend thing going on. The Cali Orange are going to be a lot taller than the Headbands, which is okay as they are on the basement level, Headbands on maisonette and first, 2nd floor respectively.

Well this is what I woke up to this morning. A frozen balcony, wish I could have some of those rosemary genes in my MJ plants....not bothered one bit by the frost!!

So the temps outside are below zero, and the temps in my grow room are around 23-24c. The humidity is sticking at around 55%. Soil/coco ph is all reading a neutral 7, although I am not 100% about my ph meter and how accurate it is.
I have started on 3/4 strength BN Grond - Supermix (about 2.5 - 3ml per litre - and feeding/watering every 3-4 days), the ones in soil/coco mix (soil has some ferts in it) I am lightening up on the added ferts - mainly rainwater at the moment.

Sorry about the HPS shots, you'll just have to take my word about the fact that they are green now:lol:

Thelma and Louise - first 5 leafs showing.

The Cliff Headband seems to be quite happy, as does it's OG Kush neighbour. They live across the street from Triple T and her neighbour.

Triple T, all the growth seems to be in the stem, not much happening on the leaf front at the moment. If you look close it looks like there is an extension, or possibly wings growing on the stem :lol:(don't jump Triple T - it ain't worth it girl!!) Not sure what's gonna happen with her...

Here's a few of the Headbands. Some of them are showing Fat indica type leaves, some showing skinnier sativa type leaves. Again I think I will get a mix of the ogkush and sourd flavours through them....getting a bit ahead of myself though.

And one of the Cali Orange. Again a couple of different looking phenos on these as well. Here's the one I like the most.

So plan, all going well, is to do the first top at the weekend. Then after Xmas start LST'ing them.

Peace RIU peeps,

DST
 
Looking good looks like they are bouncing back from the heat stress and the no rest. A couple weeks time you'll never even knew they were stressed at the start. I'll be lurking...

:leaf::peace::leaf:
 
Sweet pics!

Hey DST..... about Thelma n Louise....

I can't recall from your previous documented grows, but

have you grown multiple plants in a single pot before?

You're not planning on transplanting one of 'em elsewhere are ya?

....just curious. Peace bud

They are staying together Scotty.

Ok-doky, since you and T have both asked. Heres a pic of the very same strain (OG Kush) that I grew last year - not documented - There are two plants in the middle - Headbands. and there are 3 OG Kush's on each side,the back two on each side are in 1 big pot. I had to laugh, they are such tall girls....b4 I ventured into LST'ing. But yeh, they worked out fine - for me anyway.

That's the kind of reassurance I was looking for!
Glad to have put your mind at peace Scotty.

To be honest at first I was a bit worried as the others I have grown together had grown up a little before being joined together in lesbian plant marriage. But Thelma and Louise seem just dandy geez!!
 
After several pretty brief conversations with the wife, it pans out that she was never in a month of Sundays gonna purchase me a roor. So I had been into the shop earlier in the week, spoke to the girl about getting some discount, and then yesterday returned to pick up the beastie.

:- Sorry Scotty, didn't take you advice with regards to the straight bong...MY favourite bong was always the beaker type so this was the route I went down. It's 5mil glass, with a 18m bowl, but I was also given a slide and smaller bowl from my good bud, who also said that these American style bowls are not available anymore over here, so quite stoked about that.

So here she is::hump:

I'm definitely jealous of that right there. That's a pretty piece. Nice on you boy to hook you up an extra bowl. Friends really rock sometimes.

Cheers Jig, the extra bowl is a godsend, gives a much tighter draw. The 18 has a whole the size of a crater. And the glass screen for it just looks like a fiddly load of mess in waiting...
Friends rock indeed (although I think he was also quite happy with the bag of OG kush he got as well.)

Also bumped into a grower last night who has just finished off his Casey Jones...gonna try and snag a bit off him. He seemed stoked over it!!
 
Well after nearly a week of waiting for an order of seeds from a Dutch supplier, I came home to the box at my front door. It's a security entry so I assume one of my neighbours let the TNT guy in, and he just left it at the front door, yeh thanks. At least they are here. Pic attached.

I have also just picked up a couple of clones. I thought they had very nice root structure (check it, props to my man with the plan)

Anyhoo, I am keeping this one a mystery, just for shits and giggles as you say. Anyone is free to guess. Will be posting progress shots of these babies and will reveal all at the end. Pics of the cuttings attached.

Right, peace out, off to wade through the snow to the shed, temps in there are around 23-24c for the girls at the mo. All looking well. Will need to make space for the mystery women. And possibly some samples from the seeds. I figure that some of the cali o will be hairy ball bashers, so they will go for sure.

Peace, DST

Well, it kinda looks like the infamous

Dutch Frost

...or possibly

Scottish Tramp

... maybe even

Clint Hurdle

I'll tell you what... that scottish tramp is the shit.... let's hope that's what it is. :blsmoke:
 
I tell you what, I've had my hands on many a bit of Scottish Tramp, never failed to please me!!!:wink: They always do you on the first hit.:hump:

I tend to stay away from Frosty Dutch ladies, had my fair share of bad experiences, so I think you are warmer with the tramp.

Shame, never experienced the Clint Hurdle....
 
Also looking forward to kicking this NewYork47 off!! I think I will leave the blackjack and do that next time around (outside as I said before). I have moved my room around a bit, and have created more space (for the 2 new mystery ladies) They have been potted in a 4 gallon and a 3 gallon pot respectively. With a mix of soil and coco. More coco in the base of the pot, and organic soil up top that gives some nice natural ferts for the veg stage (with some coco mixed through.)

I still have room for one more shelf, and then we have any cali-oranges that go a stray (i.e get hairy bigaws) So there may be room for a couple of Mango's as well....mmmmm.
