Hi 420SA, We are a new local seed bank, with a few groovy cultivars on offer. We look forward to being part of this community and growing together. iRiE TO THE iRiE!

So some pics, below is the plant last night after spreading some pollen on her: Then this morning I hosed the plant down to try get rid of any lose pollen, no change in colour yet on the pistils / stigma. Will see tonight, I believe it happens within 24 hours. I moved the plant back into my grow area after hosing her down.

So these arrived today. Samsung Hinflux SO2 strips And I also bought a MeanWell HLG-185h-C1050B to power these guys still waiting for that. I hope I did the calculations right. This light should be a 155.4 watts 3000k. Sent from my VTR-L09 using Tapatalk

The end is near. About day 52 stopped feeding will do a real good flush in the next few days

Looking good buddy, i agree with @PsyCLown . Wouldn't do any trimming just yet, instead rather just bend the fan leaves under other leaves to let light through to lower leaves. I used to love getting in there and start snipping, but the guys here advised me otherwise and its been for the better. See pic below of example how i bend leaves instead of snipping them.

Yesterday's warm sun really did the girl some good! Amazing what some sunny weather can do!

So this is how far I got today. Mounted on t aluminium strips Sent from my VTR-L09 using Tapatalk

That's correct, I think they have an hour or two to take you to have your blood drawn for the court case. Sent from my Redmi Note 7 Pro using Tapatalk

Isn't an alcohol breathalyzer just used as an indicator for police to test you further by blood? In other words breathalyzer results can't be used as evidence in court, only the subsequent blood test results can be. Or am I wrong? if that's the case the same should apply for cannabis and if so... well then they fucked...

Well now you making me think... This is my 1st grow, so not sure how big she'll grow lol! I believe outdoor plants only start to flower in Jan - March, properly from march. So you still have a few months of veg time with her if you're doing it outdoors. You could cut it short by only giving her light for 12 hours and then bringing her inside for 12 hours and making sure she gets no light for those 12 hours. Then you can flower whenever you want to. 20L should be sufficient then.

Will keep it in pot but move outside when needed... Weather still not too great to plant outside just yet... Got some cheese and skunk beans that will go in the back garden late next month... Will start germination next week. I'll look into getting some 20l or bigger plastic grow bags this weekend and transplant the lady...

AS promised, here are the pics of the plants i moved outside. Some were stunted at first, but they all seem to be adjusting now.

Looking good, I don't think you need to do any trimming yet. Up to you though. You will be flowering outside too? Will you be putting the plant into the ground or keeping it in pots? It will need a larger pot soon.

...

Getting really bushy... Will give it a week or so to see if some trimming's needed.

So upon further inspection, I noticed that some pollen sacs had cracked open... inside my veg area which is where I am keeping my auto's. I did not have time to move them to the new tent yet, so fuck it. Took them both outside, picked off a few other cracked pollen sacs and sprinkled the pollen onto the pistils of my female plant and wiped down my grow area a bit as best as I could. Both plants will sleep outside tonight, tomorrow morning I want to try hose down the pollinated plant and leave her outside to dry and then she can go back inside the flowering area. I did get my new lights up and running, have them in my veg area and have taken the QB out - so that is ready for the new tent at least. I really hope no pollen has gotten and is going to get onto my flowering plants, an indoor grow with seeds is extremely annoying! Such a waste. The next STS spray will be on Wednesday evening, although I may give it a skip until I start seeing pistils on the Charlottes Angel.

i got my bottle ready mix of calmag foliar spray, spray them about 2-3times a week. havent had any issues with calcium since i read this a few weeks back. Thanks once again @highchome

Oh hell yes. Those look damn good man Sent from my FIG-LX1 using Tapatalk

God journalists in this country suck, that article is full of slang, just makes reading it near impossible.

I like to take pretty large cuttings... 15-20cm even... Cuttings take fastest from healthy branches. Depending on growth rate... The stems can be softer rather than woody. But in the bubble cloner, everything will root in time

Drop @420SA a message, I am sure he will be able to assist.

No, end goal is to keep her in pot... Next grow will be in the ground fully outdoor. Oh ok, but you will be flowering her outside? So still a long time until she starts to flower so she is going to get BIIIG. I do not think 20L will suffice, you will need to go bigger I think, although you can use 20L for now.

I agree with @Smelly Joe anything below the scrog net I would clean up, so remove the smaller branches and leaves etc. Look at what my plants looked like after I cleaned them up: Looking back at those pics, they have actually grow a looot since then too!

No, end goal is to keep her in pot... Next grow will be in the ground fully outdoor.

Ahh ok, so the end goal is to put it into the ground? Yeah, 20L should be fine then and then afterwards put it into the ground. Even 10L may suffice for now, just until the weather improved a bit.

Welcome, I guess we shall receive a link once you are signed up as a vendor?

@Trailblazer420were are you located. I have 3 x 50 watt 220V cobs that I don't use anymore with 3 x 220V fans. If you want for FREE.

Looking schwifty bro. What led strips are those?

I have my cuttings in my veg tent, I find it is the easiest as the RH is higher so it helps. I don't use a dome anymore, just makes the cuttings "weak" and they rely on you babying them then. My cuttings are on an 18/6 cycle, no issues. I doubt 24/0 makes them root faster.

There's 2 answers to that question : TECHNICAL : 1: Any light that leaks into your budding section will cause plants to have a delay on the flowering or if you have a finicky strain it might not start flowering or get a bitch fit and hermie.... I know hermie gets thrown around a lot but it's there and not something you want dangle some light in front off. COMMON ANSWER : 2. Don't worry to much about it. I have grown outdoors with some light from a security light giving a slight hue with no ill effect. You do need to check your plants and see if any part of the plants are growing different than others that is more darkened. Is there no way to seal it off. I know they sell allimuniun tape at builders etc that you can use and still have reflection. I hang towels over my tent to make double sure that no light gets in when lights are off.

Do iiiiiiit!!!!!

Good evening brother my apologies as I did not include the autos last night, I should be able to rectify that ya bear with me....haha Day19/ 25/819 They are in the same soil mix as the girls in the previous post but not showing any signs of burning, feeding is the same as above just in lesser quantities.. The auto bottom right of the pic is my only suspected male of the bunch so far and reason I say that is the new growth that is pushing out resembles a artichoke and I'd put balls on a block it's a male....haha The rest are all carrying on hunky dory, I'm expecting great things of the green crack as that was rather nice smoke and the black cream which kills it in the fruity smell department, smoke wise was also very enjoyable... Im hoping to get a fine specimen of a male hopefully a nice tall sturdy structure to him and sprinkle some mustard on a branch each of the 2 above girls... Will be repotting the 2 into 20lt fabric in the near future I just want them to get their legs underneath them first. Have a blessed evening and a irie week going forward....

All colour is back and it's smooth sailing again. Big reschange today... So that's also a good thing for them. 1 and 2 left and right

Okay so because this will sorta be Perpetual... Not in the sense that I will have one tea and keep it alive... But I will be regularly making teas, my aim is one a week to super beef up my gardens biolife, but we will see how it goes! I have one on the go now, so let me give you a few pics. First one is the day I mixed all the ingredients, and the 2nd Pic is the teeming micro life on the compost sock. I will be up pretty early tomorrow to water it on my ladies, and my little veggie patch... And the rest of my garden. 18l of this vortex brew is enough for an entire farm!!! I'll be using it in quite a bit less diluted... Pretty much full strength

Just an update on my White widow ladies, they getting lekka bushy now. 1st pic is above the canopy 2nd is below the canopy. You can see where her main branch bent when trying to keep her under the net, eventually it died of, so i cut it off. doing ok now though. flipped them earlier this week. They are in here with 1 super skunk kush and 3 Lem skunk, so 6 plants in total. Think on next grow i will put only 4 in this section as it gets a bit crowded.

I agree 100%, that scrog is looking tops. The canopy is extremely uniform. I really need to use my scrog net next time!

Yea, lighting makes a huge difference! Be it the sun or the quality of your grow lights, never something you want to skimp on!

beautiful ScrOG

Some shots before the lights went on day 45. I also took a bunch of clones Big Budha Cheese, Jillybean, Jolly Rancher and Zsweet Inzanity. Started some seeds 1 Aztec Rain already came up and 3 Blueberry Indica x Heribei some of these will go outside.

Looks like we on to something here!

I need to get me a proper camera... taking pics with a LG G6 but they do look like little long spearheads and a very different from what the male showed a day ago... I'll check again after work today to see if its developed any further...

What did the culled ones internodes look like ? I don’t see anything in the above. Take closer pics near the internodes and focus the the camera

@Nikkel keep an eye out if it is a girl you will see white hairs coming out of a spear shaped calyx. (like the picture below) Best to wait if you see spear shaped instead of little balls.

Jip, that's a boy. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

Appreciated dude, but im tapped out until next payday, even though i do need to increase the light in my budding section. Vegging section is nice and bright, looks like daylight in there. Budding section seems to be lacking a bit oh yeah, almost forgot. I made a separate section yesterday for seedling and clones, nothing too special, but it should work. Could always just add a few more cfl’s

That plant looks like it would loooove some sunlight... Where is it currently and how much light does it get?

Not sure why the leaves curling down on the one node and feels a bit hard as well... Should I snip it? New growth also coming along quickly. 2nd shorter plant looking very healthy with no issues... Just wish it would come out of the closet and show its sex lol! The last 5 pics is 2nd plant.

Also if you are doing a hydroponic/coco grow the calmag takes up a chunk of the target EC/ppm, esp for seedlings. I use a lower than suggested amount of calmag to fertigate and then do a folia spray daily. So far I've seen no Ca/Mg deficiency issues.

A lot has changed since the last update. This is just shy of 60 days from germination. Looking ok overall. Quite happy with the size of her, especially when compared to my first auto outdoor that only yielded 5g dry.
