Thanks for chicken things out. I got these clones from a master out of BCC. I only have until This Thursday to harvest. It looks like these over the last 4 weeks have almost tripled in size. They have so many crystals on them. Even watering now I just get so sticky. Anyway I will throw up some pics tomorrow after I get home from the hill.

glad to see another rocky mtn patient growing. your garden looks great, too bad about the mites. i have found many dispensaries sell mite clones so always always check. i've been totally mite free for about 5 harvests now and i can tell you predator mites do nothing. you've got to quell the mites during veg cause the organic miticide isn't to be sprayed on flowers. i like azitrol (exspensive but works omri listed too!) and spinosad (find at home depot, cheap and omri). good luck!

Thanks for the kind words. I am having a blast and I am in the process of redoing my entire basement so I won't have to worry about the mites on the next grow. I am taking about 3 weeks to bomb and get rid of the carpet. Then I am scrubbing everything down with bleach. I have quite a few strain variations waiting for me and I can't wait. I have also just been made a care giver for 5 patients that just loved the medicine from the first premature harvest and can't wait for them to try this next batch. This puts me at 36 plants for this next one and I can't wait I am going to stagger so I can harvest every three weeks. I never thought that I would be this passionate about this. Well the harvest pictures will be on Thursday night or Friday morning after I chop the last four. thank you all for looking in and I will keep checking in until the start of the next one.

Here we are at the end of the first trial indoor grow. It looks like this is going to be a very successful trial. Here are some pics of the last light that these plump little ladies will see before they are harvested in 2 short days of darkness. :eyesmoke:

Beautiful man!!! I've been watching your threads since you started this because, Im a fan of the thin air too

. This inspires me, keep up the good work.

nice finish BBM! look forward to seeing you caregiving for 5 patients. thoughts on your set up when you do?

Boulder Bud Man · Nov 14, 2009

Thank you for the kind words. I will post pictures up tomorrow when I get home from the mountains. I harvested just over 4lbs wet weight and I didn't water for 5 days before harvest. We will see what the ending number is in just a few more days. As far as the thoughts go, they are always welcome. I have decided to separate the basement with a dummy wall (cheap frame with drywall, no load bearing). The patients are flooding in. The first two newbies where a success so far. I can't to see and taste the finished product of the last four. Well until tomorrow, and thanks again for stopping in.

Wow that was a long tomorrow. Well I have been busy getting the new rooms built. A long few weeks of hard work. Here are the pictures that I promised and it was a very very large and potent yield!! :lol:

I had to add just 1 shot of the 16 beautiful new girls. Look for the next journal set up buy??????????????? I hope it's before "tomorrow". Happy Holidays to all and a very GREEN New Year.

Hey buddy so what was your total dry weight? That is one weird looking ISS you got there, doesn't look anything like the one I just grew out. Yours looks like an indica all the way, mine was much more sativa as the ISS usually is.

What is the smell/flavor like? I think this is the dead giveaway to the ISS...it's VERY unique. How is the high?

Your plants look great and your yield is killer. Just wondering about the difference in appearance, which is prob just due to varying phenos. I wish mine grew more like an indica like yours did. Even though the smoke was killer I scrapped the plant because it stretched too much for me and had a bit of a light yield, all due to the sativa influence in it.

Good luck on round #2! :blsmoke:

Great grow!

Boulder Bud Man · Jan 4, 2010

Thank you all so much for the kind words. I am off to ski for the next 4 days. I will post when I get back. The grow is going so well. I am caregiving for more than I can fit plants. Luckily it is going so well I will produce enough to supply them all. I get the second batch of the never ending cycle this friday. Keep an eye and on a side note:mmjpatient2 I will get back to you right when I am back from vaca. Thank you again. Some small teaser........

Thanks for the kind words. I was in FL for 20 years. The girls are looking great but I am not getting much vertical growth on the plants. Manybe 1/4" - 1" a day or two. I spend probably 1-2 hours a day with the girls (only lights on) and that is not counting the days that I water (another 40 min.). The flowers are comingg along nicely but I think like I said before that I think I have a little bit of mold.

Great looking yeild! I am growing ISS myself. I'm 3 weeks into flowering. I recieved 3 feminized seeds from a friend who had grown this strain before. Mine are all very lean and leggy like a traditional sativa. My friend claims that even pure sativas will grow like an indica if its a 3rd or 4th generation clone or later. Clones taken from a mother grown from a seed will act more characteristic of its true form. allegedly but maybe thats the answer for his bushy ISS.

Boulder Bud Man · Jan 19, 2010

Those look really clean. Definitely more of a sativa looking grow. I notice that if you have other ladies of a different strain they sometimes will take on some of their caracteristics. For example i have 5 blue moon rocks next to some white berries and the white berries are starting to catch up in height and the moon rocks are getting much bushier. This could be just because of the stage they are in or I am just to baked and have no idea what I am talking about. How long do you plan on flowering for? I found that right around 60 days for that strain was ideal for me. Here are some updated pictures.

Boulder Bud Man · Feb 5, 2010

Just a quick update. #1,3 and 4 are wht berry. #2 is 3x diesel. #5 blue moon rocks. Last are the babies. Patients are very happy with their medicine. I like keeping things very small for select patients. Much better quality this way. Any questions chime in.

I'm curently growing some ISS as well and I've been doing some research reading they get as tall as 7' indoors....which sketches me out cuz i only have a 6.5' tall tent and most of that growth apparently occurs during flowering...have you tried the baking soda trick for the mold?
