Hi, Dave.

Any shit I get from a cold stater I will submissively take. I am a weak Southern Californian with thin, thin blood loaded with THC. I need a jacket if it falls below 70f... Lol.

But for one who prefers to live without that whole freezing thing, dreams of White Christmases happily remain just that... dreams. So Yes, I like to muse about the imaginary icicle or hoarfrost every now and again. I love a good Robert Frost poem as much as the next stoner.

My plants receive a constant movement of air from the passive suction and the cold air blast of ac bouncing off the light's glass. Thus they are always in a state of happy quiver. That's also why I don't bother with co2 enrichment, kiddies. The vacuum effect of massive air movement obviates the need to inject gas because the plants are coming into much contact with the co2 naturally moving through the air. Plus I talk to my plants. Lol.

Edit:
And as you know, ac's generally tend to pull moisture out of the air in order to expel air that is very dry in addition to being cold. This helps greatly to keep my humidity down. I have had only one minor run-in with mold in all my growing adventures. I know what you must be thinking... "Is there really no end to his brilliance?" It's a question I often ask myself. Lol.
Jin the mad scientist. ;-)

yo jin and friends, I know you don't do outdoor (others may?) but it's about to rain today and my girls look pretty close to being done, would you mind taking a peek at my pics I just took and giving me your opinion whether they'd be good to harvest now? https://www.rollitup.org/outdoor-growing/427663-2011-first-ever-outdoor-grow-30.html#post6394732 If I waited another week (w/ the rain) how would the buds be different from how they are now? More pistils receding and more bud weight? Thanks for your opinions in advance, I think i have another 5 hours til rain... BTW jin your inbox is full :D

I just took a look at your pictures again. Wow again. I want some of that.

It would have been nice to watch them change in the next two weeks or so, but if you got rain comin', chop, chop.

The roots continue to multiply, and fishboning has begun very early as you can see.

Plant 1

Look how they start as tiny alien tentacles and then solidify into a white root strand. Kinda' creepy but beautiful.

I think this photo clearly shows that the round hydroton shape is hard to beat when it comes to providing young roots the perfect starting point. Note how the tiny tentacles easily glide across the smooth round surfaces as they make their way out.

Plant 2 - trailing along but doing just fine. These little girls have way more odor than the big ol' honking' Diablo clones I started with last time. Especially this one.

It looks like these are gonna grow the 'blond hair' style of multiplying many thin fishbone strands instead of creating large radish chunks... just like Diablo.
Upstairs pix later.

Looks like a great start! Subscribed!!

I have always been a soil grower, but I am thinking about something similar to yours.
I just ordered some Feminized OG #18, I can't wait to get them started.

Look who's getting even CLOSER to the cage! Are you as excited as I am? I don't want to jump the gun, but I'm gonna say growth rate has become more serious and definitely kicked up a notch. Explosion is eminent.

Note to 323Cheezy
From previous OG grows, the best way I can judge what the overall size in flower might be is to look at the large developing adult fan leaves in veg. If they're fuckin' huge mothers, we got worries.

Plant 1 -- Just look at her main stem thicken. That's the power of 1000w MH, boys and girls. Plants grow totally... that means outward just as much as upward. Strictly tree trunks, no chance of stringy stretchers with this much blue spec light.


Plant 2 - This one is my favorite. Look, she's starting to kick ass just like I said she would. Shake that dirty little money-maker, girl.

Poor thing suffered a bit more from the stress of rooting, but her new growth is great... and she smells so good!

Thanks, FW.

That is a very commonly available tote I use. Just make a simple H pipe and screw it on a 396gph pump with 10-12 gallons of water at the bottom. Instant plant growing engine for a very affordable cost. More active than straight DWC and no chance of over-soaking as with drip feed or ebb flow. It's more erratic than dwc soaking or flood and draining (but it's also way more active), so the ph is more challenging to control. But once you get a handle on it, the sheer speed and vigor can't be beat. Well, just watch what happens in the next week in my journal. I'll shut up now.

Edit:

But I mean, come on. Who else does daily photo updates, huh? Huh?

Ah, it feels good have a journal going again at Rollitup... such a silly name. I think that's why I gravitated to this site. I'm a pretty silly person by nature.

Anyway, I won't bore you too long. I just wanted to say how good if feels to show you everything from the very beginning every step of the way -- something I didn't do with the last grow.

Speaking of the last grow, when I read back I'm surprised at how juvenile I come off sometimes. I can't promise there will be less of my shenanigans here, but I feel that I've become a slightly more mature poster. No? No, probably not.

So here's to 323Cheeze-meister once again. It's a beautiful strain. My nose knows.

I'm gonna do my best this time to ride them on a milder nute schedule to bring out the flavor and smell of OG Kush to its fullest. Quality over forced quantity this time. So far I like the way AN has been performing. I look forward to feeding with AN's Kushie Kush during flower. It's supposedly specifically formulated to enhance Kush strains. AN haters chime in now...

looking great mate...nice roots and growth
Peace, peace.

These roots look more delicate and finer than the Diablo's btw.

So far so good, Urban Grower mustache guy. Just what is his name again? Anyone remember?

Edit:
Random note. The stale crumbs of my Diablo are four months old now. They've fermented pretty strongly. It gives a gum-pulsing high. The high has definitely mutated, but it still gives me body-rushes in the morning. hmmm... I know I could easily blow my mind again if I stopped for a couple of days. But.... I... just... can't... stop....

That is some very nice outdoor grown. It would be a real challenge for me to make anything like that happen. Too much rain. And, they look fantastic, to boot! I don't think I've seen any pics of outdoor grown that look that pretty!

Big gobs of water... just popped out of nowhere. It's just a passing rain, but let's hope this signals the coming of cooler weather.
