Harvest a Pound Every Three Weeks!

Quick Question.... Im on Page 51 right now.. but its Fri. and I'm headed out...

I have a great looking plant and have built your aero cloner system to a "T".... My cuttings have been in the system for about 8 days and are doing great! They all look like they came right off the plant still! Anyhow, most all are showing bumps and a few already have roots (just came out today, literally).. now the questions...

I put in the clonex and plane water ph'ed correctly to what you had (cant remember right now.) but I think it was like 5.8 or something. I then left them alone under a 20in flo tube. The larger fan leaves on some of the cuts (the faster rooting ones) started to become yellow.. why? Is this ok? I cut them off as soon as the entire leaf turned yellow as I thought that they were literally using the nute in the leaves to grow... is this true?

I cut them because once yellow I figured it was just a draw for water and that they were of no use to the plant anymore... am i right on doing this?

My last question is, can I start adding nutes to the mix now? and at what level would you use?

O and the yellowing has started to move towards the tips of the smaller leaves in beween the nodes (the part right above the fan leaf)...

Thank you so much!
Don't worry about the yellow leaves. Just pull them off.

As soon as the plant pops roots they can go in the veg unit.

Hey All, I have been lurking for a bit & finally got all 334 pgs read. I was going to do a DWC grow but then i found Stinks design :lol:. I'm sure i will have some :?: as i go but i have downloaded pg 75 the prints look straight forward.
StinkBud I want to thank you for what you have done & still are doing. we recently found out that my father has tumors on his brain & has undergone chemo, & starts low dose radiation in 2 weeks,(waiting for plateletts(SP?) I have saved your cannibutter recipe & will try to get him to use it. During his chemo they gave him the artifical THC Mylon(sp?). Of course he is from the generation that thinks MJ is the devils smoke. So we will see.
I will PAY IT FOWARD as you have done.
THANKS

Sorry about the bad news with your father. You will find that the designs are informative on page 75. When you shop for the parts buy a contractors pack of pvc fittings when your there, you'll need a few more elbows and tee's than the plan calls for and you'll need them for the additional plans. My favorite design is the fence post design it is rocks. When your building this stuff ask questions and these fine people will help you. Good luck. Only problem I have with smoking the devil's herb is burning my fingers after the devil takes his hit, and he also bogarts the joint.

I have a question. I am about out of room in my grow room. I have tied down the tops but the girls have stretched upward again so here is my question. Can i cut the tops of my larger plants to keep them under control without causing much damage? There is no way i can tie them down anymore. I think these are sativa strains and have outgrown my grow room. What do you all recommend i do?

Can i please get some feed back here from those who know please.

I agree, I'm amazed at how much you can bend stems around!

However, I just did an experiment with my G-13 Power Skunks and went ahead and chopped off tops that were growing into the ceiling and stealing light from my Blueberries. I don't care about the Power Skunks since they were free and appear to be a very long flowering species that I probably wont let finish, the blueberries have about 3 weeks left and thats as long as I'll give the freebie!:bigjoint:

PS, I let you know if it causes any great damage!
I've always been told to never top a plant once she is in flowering. I would get creative and keep bending those plants. I've found that there is always a way to LST just a little more.

You must have gone into your options and changed the number of posts that display per page from 10 posts (the default) to 20 posts. Most people are on the default setting. Double 167 and you get 334 pages. This is post number 3341 if that puts your mind at ease that you haven't missed anything.

Sorry to hear about your father.

~90% of chemo patients develop nausea/vomiting. All chemotherapeutic drugs are emetogenic--it just depends on their potential (low, med, high). dronabinol (Marinol) is used all the time for this. This is the synthetic version of THC.

What's the consensus on Marinol? It works, but nowhere near as good as smoking bud. Why? Easy. Cannabinoids. There are so many cannabinoids in bud.. allowing numerous interacions with, and modulation of the cannabinoid receptors throughout your body (which is a whole other topic--why do we even have these receptors...) along with the fact that smoking is the fastest route of administration--it allows the user to quickly self-titrate.

So.. eating cannabutter is also an optional route to go (better than Marinol, not as good as smoking) for nausea.. it has the added benefit of being long-lasting and an altogether different experience, as well as less overall stigma. The downside to cannabutter is.. it takes at least an hour to effect, you never really know how potent/strong it will be, different absorption rates depending on stomach environment etc.

My two cents... again good luck! And make sure he is compliant and eating healthy ;)

Not to be funny but you are missing the other 167 pages. Just keep reading and you will find them. Of course you won't read this until you do. How did you expect an answer if you can't find the end?:wall: LMAO:bigjoint:

Oh good catch Picasso. I didn't realize that was an option/issue. Okay so it isn't as funny now but I got a good laugh out of it and I haven't even been smoking. Sorry, I just thought it was funnier than it was I guess. Better go take my meds!

Hey Stink! I know you said somewhere but I cannot recall... Which brand of lights do you prefer for flower? I was thinking of getting 2 600w units to start with. Thanks again for all this great info!

How do you think fogponics would take to this system stink. I read about it in high times a month or two ago and they had nothing but good things to say about it... How do you feel about fogmonics opposed to misters or evan working with them?
