^:) Thanks bro!!

You know...these fucking plants are just getting huge..lol

Had to transplant two of them last night, and being as big as they were..
I was a bit scared to say the least..
Quite the site to see..
These giant plants hanging upside down, all held together by a tiny 3 gallon soil base.

I will update with pics tonight..

I swear these girls jump everyday, it's crazy to see

Good Afternoon Colorado!!

Update..(little out of date too)
This is pics of them at week 1 of flower...new pictures tonight at lights on...
For now some shitty camera shots...Taking pictures in the tent SUCKS.

Also..Scrog'd... Many branches of SN3 are tied down and bent under the net..
In front is Sn2 behind her is Her sis Sn3
Left side of tent..


Then the wreck is on the right side..


These pics don't do them justice...The Wreck and Sn2 in particular.

A new born flower..this was after the first night of going 12/12..Much more development, with tons of white/clear hairs.


And some bubble I acquired from Essential Extracts...so, so good..

Moar pics tonight!!

Hells yeah..

Thanks for stopping by CAS!!

Those pics are nearly a week old, this being my first grow, I really had zero concept on how fast and aggressive cannabis plants grow.

SN2 is absolutely amazing..she is flowering all over the place with white hairs accumulating rapidly.

The Wreck is just now birthing the white hairs, but her canopy is set up beautifully.

Now, SN3... She is a long stretcher for me anyway... She is popping flowers, but at a much slower rate than her sibling.

Idk... Still trying to figure things out..

Anybody have any recommendations as far as preventive pest control?
I haven't seen any, but I certainly do not want to get infested, as my grow is currently in the garage.

Product recommendation, and how/where to use it.

Also, I would love some advice on nutes at this point of the grow, particularly a flower sweetener, and/or bloom booster.

Sunday is officially two weeks into 12/12.

Can anybody help a newbie out?

Oh..
Current nutes as follows..(pretty basic)
GH ” Floraduo” 3 step General Hydroponics.
2 bottle system.
2 tsp of the green bottle during veg/ and 1 tsp purple bottle.

After 12/12.. You reverse the solution.. 2 tsp bloom/1 tsp veg.
Also using GH Kelp-alicious? Plus...I think?...lol

Thanks in advance guys and gal;)

I am hating the photos in the tent..

Such a bitch to get a clean shot, that does the plant justice.
So, I took this pic this morning, and played around with the lighting, contrast, hue, etc etc..

Thought this adjustment will display a clearer perspective on what's going on in there...

I am requesting constructive criticism in this regard, I want to learn all that I can, with a clear understanding of the process, I am ready to really soak in all I can, as I have come to the realization that breakthroughs involving cannabis continue to grow in a rather rapid time-frame, So the industry is forever evolving, learning new things everyday for the remainder of my being; this is my passion.

This is SN2, again this is not the true color per se, but to highlight where the flowers are blooming.
Honestly..the pic still sucks..lol

Hey NightRider!.. Thank you for reading my friend.

The introduction of Essential Extracts has completely changed my opinion of water hash.
I've gotten use to the ” plant matter taste” from the cuticle of the trichome.

No matter how” good” the bubble was... It always tastes a lot like shit after it oxidizes.
The pictured hash is called Power Sour..not quite full melt, but very oily and delicious.
Also obtained a few grams of golden looking water hash.
Bubba Skunk..
I actually obtained the rest of the hash in that jar..so, the budtender let me have the big Essential Extract jar, that the hash is sold from.

It's a min-mason jar, with a giant EE sticker on the lid, and caked in oil.
I likes to pretend that Nikka him self filled the jar...haha

Which is not unrealistic, she said he comes into town once in a while to hand deliver his product and visit.

I'm going to ask if I can get a signed jar!!
Oh.. The Bubba Skunk..
I'll throw up a pic momentarily..

This is so pungent..take a deep whiff, and it literally stings the nostril.
 
I have had probably 12-15 different strains of E.E. Currently I have some Krones The White 120m, Papaya 38m, and some solventless Rare D 70m. My fav's have been OG 38m and Charlies Candy (Charlie Sheen OG x CC Romulan) if you see some.

Here is The White.

Oh buddy...you got the super dank!!

All they had on hand was 25u when I was there...still really bomb hash..but dayyummm...

I really wanted some his 70u!!!
Very nice pick ups my friend!

You in my neck of the woods bro?
You almost remind me of somebody I know...

Do we know each other?..lol

This would make 3 of these coincidences...lol
 
Pretty sure we don't as I'm fairly new to Colorado in general and really haven't met anybody in the mmj culture. I grab most of my E.E. at The Pink House as they seem to have bi-weekly drops of 4-8 different options come onto the shelves for 30-40. I'm up near the N. Denver/Boulder realm of things in case you make it up this way.

Right on bro, your vocabulary seemed familiar to me, sorry about that..lol

I'm gonna have check The Pink House out, although they seem a bit pricier than what I'm getting from the current dispensary that carries it.
Here is the 25u Bubba Skunk..literally stings the nostril when smelling it..
I'm super impressed with the potency.

This is the only water hash that can medicate me in the same fashion as hash oil.

Good morning Colorado!!

I've decided to make Sunday my official update day, as today is officially the 2nd week of 12/12.

SN2.. SN3 is behind her.


The wreck pretty much looks the same, except her tops are just now stating to come together, the canopy is set up abit higher also.

Here is the beginning of something that's gonna be beautiful..



FUCK YEAH... IT'S OFFICIALLY FOOTBALL SUNDAY!!!

The couch beckons upon my hiney to rest upon it's cushions and bask in the glory of on field combat.
As my modest, yet proud 47” HD Sharp Aquos displays these battles, many chips lives will be lost, and many sodas drank.

As one might predict, I'm a rabid football fanatic, and so happy that Sunday now means something again...lol

Jk.. Not really..

Thanks Rae!!
I was finally able to get that A/C ;)ducted outside, and I just have to” spot cool” for a couple of hours to keep the temps down during the days heat.

Damn Colorado weather weirdness...lol damn near 100°in September?

But, I really wish I'd found a means of getting that A/C hooked up sooner, because I've only had it up and running for the last two days, and the plants are loving the new climate as they are in sleep cycle.

Does anybody have a good recommendation for a flower sweetener/booster?
I've been thinking Bud Candy or Molasses..

Thoughts?

We use black strap molasses once a week on the girls in flower. Whaven't ventured into anything else, yet! Give us time and I am sure we will be experimenting with other sweeteners.
