Err, that would be in the next town down the line. I prefer the local college, better class of plastic heh.

I don't think you'll have to look too hard!

Lights on in one hour. This weeks pix will not be far behind. Wish I could post a scratch 'n sniff.

now that would be cool sniffffffffff

log onto the smellynet

aaaargh.. camera batteries are all dead.

Show delayed temporarily.
Management asks your indulgence.kiss-ass

These girls are starting to stink up the joint. Trichomes are everywhere.

I haven't watered since Sunday. I will be giving them light bloom nutes tomorrow. They are yellowing a little early.

The plants have gained so much budweight
compared to the buckets they are a trifle top-heavy.
I am not complaining

These things are huge.
Make no mistake.
I'm not holding up lighters or beer bottles for comparison.
I'm trying to find my fire extinguisher.

The three clones I started flowering last week aren't doing much yet, random pistils here and there.

Those buds at the end gonna be HUGE, man!

They look really nice.

Don't burn them now.

Whatever you fed them last time,
make sure you do not exceed that amount
next time you feed.

How many weeks of 12/12 ?

They are on day 31.

I'm am not going to burn them. Been there, done that.

The last feeding was a little over 800 ppm, mostly grow big. I'm thinking tomorrow they'll get something around 500ppm, mostly tiger bloom. And cal-mag and hygrozyme. I'll be feeding that to the younger three as well. I don't think they will have a problem with that.

The think I'm most worried about now is bud rot. I don't know why, just being pessimistic, I guess. It IS the middle of winter after all, not like I have humidity problems. . . .


Ahhh.

Keep the room temp cool
and you won't have any problems.

.

It's 53 at night . . . It might get close to 50 in the next few days. . . .

My remote sensor
indicates my room was
57º for low and 63º for high in the last 24 hours.

I like it..

Looking good man, we're just about the same schedule, you're 3 days ahead of me...

I read the post, "you guys in your 5 gallon buckets, look at that stalk..."

Well, obviously plants really enjoy 5 gallon buckets, that's why "us guys" grow with them...


I'm gonna try out a hempy bucket or three on the next round...

Thanks for stopping by.

5 gallon buckets rock. The plants love em and I can go a week without watering.

Hempy is slow at first, but with established plants they just go. Just like any hydro you have to watch what you are doing but you don't have to deal with pumps, airstones, tubes. If I didn't always flower my mothers I would keep em in a hempy for the minimal maintenance.

I wish I had trimmed up my plants a little like you did. I may have to start a hash stash with all the popcorn buds that are forming way down at the bottom.

Do you have a target date for finishing? I have no idea when these will be done. My seeds came from a grower in VA, they were 5 or 6 years old and she didn't remember what they were. I'm thinking of growing some large sativa in 5 gallon hempy buckets, but that will have to wait until after this summer.

Well if that's all that's stopping you .. . .

down at the bottom of this page, lower left is a pull-down menu of skins for RIU. just change your to blzn-07 and you have the little scales back.

Thanks for the compliment. I'm pretty puffed about these ladies.

Thanks man I like this background better... You got yours..lol... +rep

I'm guessing that half of mine will be done at the 45-50 day mark... And the stretchy sativas are definately going to be more like 60...

I've grown a plant that looks nearly identical to the way my Nine Mile (Jamaican) looks, they're just now starting to fill in, but they are on the way of becoming massive... 60 plus strains get huge.
