Yes, hes a ninja! 2.4 grams per watt. WoW
I was trying my first Circle crop of bud, Hobbes style, but she was a male. RIP.
I got to try it again , his air pruning buckets work.

I cant approve his infecting himself with malaria for his tincture therapy.
Hes deffinatly passionate about it.
But everything I read said it will work, tell they develop immunity.

  • Taproot stress, I remember in the old days a theory were adamant about not letting your taproot touch the bottom of the pot. I got to look into that, thought it was in an my old Mel Frank grow bible. They thought it stunted growth or something:?:
  • Last grow I spilled a bunch (about 10 oz?) of spent sugar yeast water from my 2 liter C02 in one of my lilMotivationn clones folgers pot. I thought it would have killed her, but she EXPLODED with grow an the best of my clones that run. I realy got to look into this it was wild. Was it random? I thought I read that yeast sugar an water help make some enzyme for microbes to digest starches in soil or something?:?:
  • Since Zeba is cornstarch based, could you just substitute common cornstarch for similar water retaining properties?I'm thinking you could.:?:
  • Could I construct a bird house an use it as camo for a tree grow?:?:
Ill get Pics up this afernoon.........

Today I took a clone off the Chemo Iranian.:leaf:
I toped her to have 6 main colas, but she only had 5?
So I took the odd shoot as a clone.
Her Mamas grown good an has a bit more stretch than the Chronic an Sharks breath at there age, but is also bigger than them at that age.

The Barneys Farm Red Cherry Berry has Hit the dirt an tomorrow should be her Birthday.:-P
I seen at attitude that barneys has discontinued her.
I tried her because I heard several times she is better than red dragon, witch made her sound great.
Now shes the last of her kind.

Due to being Broke as hell, I will not be running Zeba Gel outdoors.:-(
I will be using the PolyAcrilimide stuff from Miracle Gro.
I have herd rumors it makes bud taste bad, But I doubt it. Prolly the same folks who say Miracal Gro Nutes make bud taste bad.
Thats like sayn Plastic Pots make your bud taste like plastic lol.
It says it non toxic, an safe for use on fruits an vegies that all I needed to hear.
I know it holds water better than zeba an is cheep.
Ill go for it an report the findings when the outdoor ladies are done.

The shed has been geting a bit stinky, they are to much for the carbon filter on hot afternoons (an today will be 90').
I can smell em outside the cab, but not outside the shed.

So I added One of those metered spray airfreshners to the shed.


It definatly covers all the extra odors in the shed.
for now...............

Ps I tried one of the ONA gel nock offs from walmart for odor last summer it sucked. This is much better.

Been Driving HRS in the country looing for spots for outdoor guerilla growing.

Found this daisy.Photo0230.jpg
-Nothing is sight as far as the eye can see.
-Hip high weeds, thorns bushes, cacti an stickers
-15 miles from town down dirt roads an 2 track trails
-Its got cover of an old oil pump unit an hills to hide my ride.
-Its so rough animals an hunters would walk around it.
-Theres no water very dry an sandy, so the Bugs an grasshoppers (my arch enemy) wont be as thick.


Just got to dig some holes.







For outdoor Insect control Im using this.
Photo0232.jpg

It was recomeded by Uncle Ben.
https://www.rollitup.org/outdoor-growing/311959-silver-bullet-outdoor-insect-pest.html

Its systemic, meaning one application per year in the ground an it sucks it up.
An its made from synthetic Nicotine with very very low toxisity to mamals.
Safe for about every fruit an veggie.

Imidacloprid is a nicotine-based, systemic insecticide, which acts as a neurotoxin and belongs to a class of chemicals called the neonicotinoids. Although it is now off patent, the primary manufacturer of this chemical is Bayer CropScience, (part of Bayer AG). It is sold under the trade names Kohinor, Admire, Advantage (Advocate), Gaucho, Mallet, Merit, Nuprid, Prothor, Turfthor, Confidor, Conguard, Hachikusan, Premise, Prothor, Provado and Winner. Imidacloprid is one of the most widely used insecticides and can be applied by soil injection, tree injection, or broadcast foliar or ground application as a granular or liquid formulation or as a pesticide-coated seed treatment.[2] [3]

-The cronic has more buds than the sharksbreath so I guess the topping for 4 colas an then LST seems to be better than the LST only Sharksbreath.:-P

I was admiring your pictures as I scrolled thru them. Your babies are a great example of what babies should like. Too bad more of us (newbies) can't see them. And then I happen upon poor Chemo Iranian. You have never posted a picture that looks like that one. Can you save her? You always have such good looking ladies.

Whats up Ms BBB!

Do you mean the clone?
Shell make it fine.I was trying to clone with less humidity so my leafs wont curl so much but I got carried away.
Ill spray it with water once a day an seal it in a zip lock baggie to get her happy.
In about 2-3 weeks shell have roots an look much better,
Ill veg her a bit more (2-3 weeks) tell its late april / may, an she will be ready to grow outdoors in the tree in my yard.

The mama is looking kinda Ugly for now, but Im not worried. Topping for 4 colas kind of does that.
Shes actualy Big for her age .
Ill start giving her 1/2 strength veg nutes this week.
I keep reading that Iranian crosses are kinda sensitive an require little nutes so shes kind of yellow.
 
hey whats up i read through most of your thread, cool grow you got goin'

but in regards to your mirror vs. diffuse reflector, which is better thing, you have to understand all reflected light is actually transmitted by the electrons in whatever object you're looking at. So, the light from your mirrors isn't the light from your bulbs, it's the light from the actual material the mirror is made out of, which acts like a filter to the light from your bulb. All I'm saying is while this 'filter' appears brighter and whatnot, the extra brightness is probably coming from infrared rays (which are still light waves) put out by the materials in the mirror which contributes to your hot spots. And I don't think plants like infrared waves. Just something to think about
