Whooo dargo..you just gave me a chilli rush...
I looked at the Big girls and thought they were DAY 2...

Girl karma sent.

Knowing what FullD is gonna do...I really appreciate the Watch.

Are you growing them total under lights...?

Someone from this house is in the UK...
they say snow to the knees...
and sheet lightening..giving green light up....

The newspaper says Willie Nelson..(77 years old..)
has been arrested..after they found 6 ounces of cannabis on his tour bus...

I Think that deserves a Standing Ovation.....:clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:
That settles it... as of right now we're all on Double Secret Standing Ovation!

:clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap:

Know when to grow em, know when to smoke, and never count your bud weight until its sittin in the stash-spot!

I don't use amended soil..I just use universal compo...8 euros for 50 ltrs.

AND AMENDED WATER..
seeing the results..I Think that is the key...see FullD.

IMO..pre-ferted soils used on Germinations...stumpies AF's

And..why transplant..?....germ to compo..in the finish pot

the first 3 weeks of an AF's ROOTS is the most important bit of the grow.

Every process you give them...
germ to tissue..transplant..
gives them a Stop..
however careful/experienced you are..
so cut out the processes...as much as possible.
yup... picked up on this... my thought was more for the continuos flow-throw method... you know say... start 7 every week and finish 7 every week... at that point theres only enough room to do 21 pots X 3 Ea = 63... but if i go in singles... the there's only room for 21 at a time... meaning I'd have to start in my "VEG" chamber and then transplant to bigger space in flower chamber whn its time... so getting arund this root issue is major.... maybe start in my fogger with no root restrictions and then "GENTLY" transplant to a big pot? Of course I'm afraid of shocking themusing this method... Ideas?

the buzz with my KM's in food form is outta this effin world!
Canna butter is my fav.. Chocolate would be ncie, i never thought of that.. I like the idea of the green white cana choc. Festive.. :D It sure is christmass choc gran, dig in. Muhahahaha She'd love it. Old hippy she is.

I haven't made any canna food in a while. The last time i did, it knocked me on my ass!!! I love the body stone you get.. You think smoking gives you chinese eyes? HA try eating it :D
An old friend puts a little ball of hash in his coffe now and then..

Mossy, the oil i make retains the terp profiles. When you blow the smoke out you taste the flavour of the plants used. This batch is very creamy/skunky tasting and smelling. It's more hash than oil at this stage. Hash and oil is my thaaang.. I just wish i still had my hash press, i'd post up some pics of that.. Sucks what you loose in raids.. Bloody fools smash and grab everything they can.

I hate the chemical fule taste from the alc, as well. So i usually let mine sit so long that it is britle. No alc left in there at all. As long as you are using the proper type of alc, you won't have any left overs. I am damn near vegan when it comes to my smokables, so if there was ANY chems or philthy taste i personally wouldn't bother.

I know what you mean about spit spit though, ahhaha it makes my mouth water when i take tokes.
I have to do hot knives in the kitchen, so i can spit in the sink. You'd think i had a ball of chew in my cheek. Mrs. BH hates it :D
Spreading some on a paper then rolling a nice one is my fav :D

You ever smoked a hash cone? you roll your hash into a small cone with a small hole in the end. I use the end of a pen to mold it on, poke a pin through both sides of the cone so you can hold it. Light the bigger end of the hash with a lighter to get a cherry going. You can toke it like a joint from the smaller end with the hole..
Maaan i could do on and on.. All we used to do was wake up get high and play around with weed stuff until we went to bed.

Edit: Ha look at that post time getting high right on time.. :D

Good point on that he may have the actual AF right there in front of him.
Id love to see pics of it cause there are things that set a true AF apart form the long season girls

Ironhead can we see some pics?"
page 124 Duplex...only shot a vid and its all I have can you advise if the larger one should be sent to 12/12? considering the runt is a solid two weeks into flower? (no camera so shot it with the lap top)

sounds to me like its not a true auto... but 70 days is about the cutoff... might have to go 12/12 and stay at it to finish and force.

give it another 5 days I say... then go 12/12 and flower as though it were a regular photo period plant.

jeez FD... fianlly got that other mango ripe and now I'm afraid to try after your results! Dont really wanna feel like shit w/ no relief...

if you had to switch lighting they are not autos....

autos flower regardless of light period... it is generally believed amongst most people on this thread that tap root hitting bottom of root medium triggers flower. But it has ABSOLLUTELY nothing to do with photo period on a true auto... you must have the result of an unstabilized breed.

However, I will say they look very nice and keep up the good work... def get your hands on a good set of auto-flower genetics and try them... they are fun and fast!

they actually look like Super Silver Haze or some rendition of that.

The bigger ones in the onken yogurt pots are secret citrus, that would be some nice growth for 2 days lol

yea its really cold here atm, hottest its been is about -2, im right out in in the countryside so its allways colder than in the city. I had to change both my grow cupboards so the light is on 24/7, my HPS cupboard is now a constant 26.5C with the light 8" above the canopy, no extractor fans on and only a small fan keeping the air moving but its at the top of the cupboard above the light. I had the HPS on 12/12 finishing off some girls from the greenhouse, when the lights went off the temp was dropping to 4C!!!!!!!! its in my bedroom which I like cold (got my electric blanket to keep me warm lol) im going to need to get a water heater and a grow room heater or else my tank for the blumats will freeze and so will my girls.

and talking about freezing plants......... both these males are about 20 days old, the tall one was kept under the cfls untill his pollen started to fall, the smaller was put on the shelf at the back of the house with 4-5 hours sunlight and where the temp has bareley gotten over 0C and dropped well bellow that at night. apart from not growing a mm since moving him he is looking very healthy. thought this might be usefull for people wanting to do a seedrun but not wanting to keep both male and female in the same place......
