A Cannabinerd's Journey

How long do you typically veg for Alpha? Are you always vegging for that same amount of time or close to it? Pulling a harvest every month or 2 months?

Usually right around 3 week veg, this batch was 17 days I think. Animal and dosido veg really fast but are really lanky, but if I have 12 plants per light I don't need too much training so can throw em in quicker than other strains. The mendo vegs wide and takes a while to get going, especially after topping so I like 3 full weeks for those. I try to take clones, root them, and veg all in 4.5 weeks so when I harvest I can put a batch that's ready to flower in its place because I usually have a 9 week flower cycle

Same here, flowers are my staple and I rely on them. I smoked a pipe full of hash at 1 this morning, woke up at 5, and I was still somewhat high....

Oh man yeah hash gets me too stoned if I have to do stuff, I can't really function well if I take a dab then have to run errands or something lol. I love it for late night when I have nothing to do or if my pains flaring up, but I don't like how long the high lasts if I gotta be on schedule that's for sure
 
Here's the next batch of animal cookies that would normally be flowered out if I wasn't expecting to move, these would go right in the tray, but since it's animal cookies they grew way too big in the 4.5 weeks so I can't flower them on the tray because I don't have the ceiling height :( they just grow way too fast so I'm still playing around when exactly I need to start them. Lanky bastards. The good thing is if my loan closes for the house (should know early next week) I can grow some animal trees!!! Haven't grown any monster cookies yet so that should be fun. They should be like 3.5' tall by the time I can flower lol

Ha ha, yeah they look like they would be on the ceiling if you flowered them there! Mostly thats not a bad problem though ;), figure something out! Good luck on closing on your loan pronto.

I'm definitely going to try my best to come up with a solution for them, thinking a scrog of some sort :) or possibly using my ebb buckets but instead of ebb and flow, I can use the drippers, that'll give me a few extra feet of wiggle room. And thanks brother!! My anxiety is so stupid bad for the past few weeks, my loan officer sent the loan to the underwriter a couple days ago and I've been freaking out man. Anxiety sucks ass, my heart beat goes up to 125 just sitting down and my BP is 170/105 last I checked earlier. Can't wait for it to close or even not close the loan, just want to know because I hate being in limbo ughh

Shit bud, I know where you are 1000%. Ive been in limbo with this job shit for better part of a year. Every fucking day I wake up and wonder if today will be the day. Its getting very close, but yeah, not here yet....fucking sucks
 
I definitely hear you too brother, anxiety can be crippling hey! Stress is so bad for the body, trying to keep dopamine levels down is really hard sometimes! I hope the house loan goes through quickly and without issues bro, I really do :)

Thank you bro, only a few more days to wait! I know I can't even understand how something not in human nature, but our own brain, can wreck so much havoc!

Exercise also helps to offset it. Reminds me, I need to get my fkn ass back on the mtn bike. As it seems to really dispell alot of it. Maybe it doesnt go away but helps even things
Click to expand...
I wish I could exercise more than I do, I used to do flat land BMX and can barely walk a mile now :( but I do as much as I can and it does help, maybe someday I can get back on my bike too :)
 
So I culled the animal pie, it's just too funky for me so I'll pop some more beans. But one thing that sticks out is the biggest petiole and leaf I've ever seen in my life, including outdoor! I'm so confident this is such a rad leaf petiole, I'm willing to give anyone that has a bigger petiole (lmfao) some seeds or something lol. Make it a contest.

How's got a bigger petiole than I!?

Agreed man, our brains are such complex organs hey, one chemical out by a bit and everything gets out of whack!
Dude, that petiole is freakin massive! No way I have anything even close to that!

I know this feeling! I'm a former athlete and I work out everyday. Then I injured both shoulders in early 2015 and then found out my hips were in really bad shape around memorial day. Had first hip surgery October and it was much worse than they thought. Had other hip done in February and is still giving me problems. Just had the first shoulder done end of June and that was 10x worse than they thought too. Just got out of sling last week and I already want the other one done too. Plus my wrists are messed up from being on crutches for so long and might have to go back on if they need to redo the hip but not soon because the shoulder needs to heal. And im turning 29 at the end of the month....

For sure bro, I even tried some ssri meds and those even made it worse!! Ugh, the only thing that helps is some strains of weed and Xanax, and I don't take Xanax anymore because its super addicting so stopped taking it years ago ugh. Someday the docs will find a cure. And dude, that petiole blows my mind lmao, I've never seen anything like it I'm going to put it in a frame :)

Damn brother that's rough :( I'm 31 but been dealing with spine issues for some years now, you sound even more beat up than me damn :( hope those surgeries help you man!!

Week 1 flower my leaves are super droopy. Over water? I'm doing 3x lights on
Click to expand...
So they only droop during lights off? If they perk up after the light turns on, then they are just hardcore sleeping from growing so much. Mine droop exactly like that lights off, then perk up. Around week 3 they will stop drooping at lights off. If it's happening 24/7 I'd reckon underwater, you'll never have an over watering problem with that system I don't think, I even water 6+ times a day mid flower.
