Magenta hashplant a little under 6 weeks, I've grown a lot of plants but I don't think I have grown anything close to this as far as just a beautiful plant to look at. It is just about equal parts purple red and green right now and very frosty out to the end of the leaves, nice solid swelling nugs and a nice skunky/hashy smell.View attachment 3986450View attachment 3986451View attachment 3986452

I don't know what it draws for amps but it's pretty small and very quiet so I can't imagine much.

Thank you for the info. What will you do with it in the winter? Will you cover it with a tarp?
That greenhouse is just 12x20 and 7 feet tall in the middle it was the smallest one on here at the time http://www.fullbloomlightdep.com/light-deprivation/ I have seen that they no longer make the 12 foot wide greenhouse, it was about 5k with delivery if I remember correctly.

As far as cycles I have been putting in 4-8 plants every two weeks or so since around may 1st and expect it to run until everything is done outdoors mid-late October so just under 6 months. Also running it 11/13 with the light intensity you get in the summer has sped up the growth cycle pretty remarkably most 9 week plants are done by week 8, my karma headbanger are supposed to be 10-12 weeks looks like they will be done by 9, and my pure sativa Zamaldelica looks like it will be done in 10.

This is my first year with it and couldn't be much happier I spend a lot of my free time just walking around in there and smelling the flowers as they say.

put together one of those cloners @thumper60. i went to the grow shop looking for parts,ended up copying a 25 site machine they had.the site plugs were smaller so you could do the same and do way more cuttings then the 6 i did.the submersible pump is rated for 396gph ($20 ebay)which is about twice as strong as the one that came with the machine from the grow shop.pump $20,pvc elbows/tees $5,20qt tub $10,misters $7 for 60,cloning collars $12 for 50.roughly $60 total cost after the can of white and clear spray paint i put on the tubView attachment 3986587 View attachment 3986593 i had the foam insulation and the stick of conduit.the lid that came with the tub leaked,the foam insulation dropped in works great.
Here's what I use for inserts. I cut them in half and get two out of each one. They have a perfect hole down the middle so I just split them the length so I can slip in cuts.

I haven't really thought that far but the motors will definitely come in maybe a tarp maybe just leave the block out down that is pretty thick material with some sort of string woven through it so I don't think it would be too bothered by the snow.

Smidge, are you sure you don't save a few of those for yourself, to get that mop of curls look?

Good idea though. I have used Styrofoam coffee cups cut down to size. Those look much easier to work with.

Okay guys so most of my plants are getting along pretty well but a couple of them are showing some odd symptoms namely curling leaves and some yellowing on new growth near the plant tops. I'll let the pics do the talking.

The first one looks kind of piss poor and it was already from a hermied plant so I wonder if the genetics are just, shall I say, fucked. The second was from some bag seed that is kind of old but it's brothers/sisters seem to be doing pretty well so far.

Today was the first time I've actually fed them they've been in pots with Happy Frog for about a month now.

A couple new strains to add to the seed collection.
Pink lotus x pink lotusIMG_4185.JPGPlatinum angel x pink lotus IMG_4189.JPGIMG_4190.JPG so far pretty impressed with the pink lotus. They don't like being run inside but recently finished two outdoor that took heat humidity and lots of rain without any issues. And were left out to see what happens with no help in heavy undergrowth along tree line

Howdy everyone, newbie here wondering around when the vegging plants I have with Start to kick into flower so I can prepare my feeding schdeul

Wow I know flowering will occur w less than 14 hours but that's a whiles away. I was hoping to harvest before then. First timer out here so I'm trying to refrain from asking questions that are nearly impossible to answer accurately. Like how much am I gunna yield and all that. I germmed mine April 17 vegged indoor until the week before the solstice and put them outside. Will they go until October?

"They will go to October if they aren't eaten, or stolen, or cremated, or executed, or burned from the inside, or poisoned."

Trying to follow the less is more philosophy by doing less which is annoying. The process is litterally comparable to watching paint dry. I shouldn't say that it's a bit more asthetically pleasing.

"For me this isn't quite perfect. I need to add the black mold and powdery mildow sitting there waiting just under the surface, waiting, waiting to glimpse the thickest, plumpest, greasiest flower to devour and knock back with my tears."

I'm envious of you folk with your gals out there in the wild. Where you have to hike and go off the beaten path. Make a day of going to take care of the girls and every time you go, you'd see a change which is fun and exhilarating. Very excited to see my own product. Although probably anti climatic. Enter mold or worms stage left. Shut up
"Don't be envious of tick bites, embedded in your grundle. Or shotgun blasts over your head. Do you prefer being chased by an angry black bear and her playful cub, or facing down three MS13 gang members coming down the off beat trail with noone else around for miles? I can never decide."

Where I come from my indicas can finish from mid Sept and later while my sativas finish in the last two weeks of October depending on pheno. Temp wise I can go until frost. Good luck.

I retract my plea for assistance. Appears they're recovering nicely after a nice feeding. Still not sure exactly what it was considering it was affecting only new growth.

Also over the last couple days I'm seeing pistles on all of my bagseed plants. What are the odds of me ending up with all females over two different growing seasons on a handful of just random seeds? As far as I can tell it should be about 50/50 pretty much all the time..
