1kilo rice 1 kilo sugar 4 liter water 1 kilo fruit grated of your choice you'll get about 1-1/2 liter high test alcohol we have a damage/ freight salvage store nearby $2.00 for 4 lb. sugar (almost 2 kg.) rice 5 kg for $4.00 3 cans of mango for $1.00 I made the still out of a used pressure cooker from a thrift store but the more you scrounge around the sweeter it gets definatly a hobby for a man on a shoe string budget around here cattle food with molasses & corn either together or separately is cheap you need rum making yeast for the molasses & amalyse for the enzyme for grain like corn,rice & the like you tube has multiple tuitorials on it I was afraid of failing at first but once I set my mind it went good ,got my next batch fermenting possibly Friday using common baking yeast on this one this is an American tradition which in all reality originated with you guys & no doubt came over on the mayflower so the roots go way deeper than America like much of our heritage originates with you guys across the pond we ain't all that different well enough of my philosophy stickman if you like growing you just might like this as well it's a kick in the ass

Kind of losing hope for starbud unfortuantley. I'm not really noticing any root growth and as you can see she is looking incredibly sickly. Just gunna keep hanging in until she falls over I guess lol. I got a decent chunk of roots out, was way smoother than i expected, used my trimming snippers and it was real easy.
On the bright side Pineapple Fields is a beauty and she is just chugging along like a champ! With how big she is it really takes away from the blow of my dying starbud.
Not sure yet what pheno I'm dealing with, Dynasty seeds gives a good listing of what I might get. http://www.dynastyseeds.com/strains/pineapple-fields/
Kinda hoping for the 10-11 week bloomer so she has a lot of time to really pack on a lot of weight

The numbers are in, sort of! Ive got just over 8 ounce of solid buds, and around 2-3 ounce of buds that I just couldn't be arsed to trim, so I've just slung em on the hash pile. So a 10/11 ounce yield.
So not really happy with the yield.
Until....... Cleaned all the tent up today and started cutting away all the old shit and started chopping the roots, i gave them a squeeze and all brown water poured out. Root rot.
Dirty bastard.
The roots did look shit, but had no slime or bad smell to them so I never thought that was the problem.
So in a way, I'm relieved. I was startiing to believe that the light wasn't up to the job, and that I'd be better off with my 400w HPS.
So I'm now wondering how she ended up with it in the first place, she was a pain in the arse with roots from the onset and set me back a few weeks. My Res temperatures are normally 19/20 degrees C.
Anyways, fuck it, she's done with. Hoping for a better run with the Blue Dream

Aw poor thing! But the way the whole root ball came off, there wasn't much hope was there.
Acrually the wound you showed us made me think of disease - the stem looked like a bone joint, the surface was all slick, not torn as it would be if indeed it came off solely by mechanical means... I've come across something like that in my reading, but for the life of me can't remember any details, sorry, which is why I didn't say anything at the time.
Yeah awesome the way the Pineapple Fields is going though!

hm..well one thing you had different was the nutes too, right?
The way those roots sound I think you can be happy she gave you anything at all!
In any case, wishing you muuuuch better luck with the Blue Dream!

Not bad at all, better than most folks get from 1 plant! Especially considering those issues. Hell you were able to work outta town most the grow and still pull that much so thats great. The fuckin devil root rot though, I always worry about that too with having such a huge root nest in there it's not the easiest to see.
Good grow though man, beautiful buds! Not meeting your goal just gives you something to work for on the next one!
