Thanks MediMaryUser. Nice to see you back here.

Loving that avatar too. Fast motorbikes and good bud are 2 of my favourite things, although not usually at the same time :)

The little outside plant is doing well. I'll post an update tomorrow.

You've got me bang to rights there MC :)
As promised here's some updates to show development over the last week.
First up is the cutting. Remember she has had no rooting hormones, so she can be forgiven for being a slow starter. She'll pick up.
Next is the failed Hempy experiment. She's come on plenty over the last week. She would look more photogenic but I've tied down the whole of the top cola. You can see it under the red band in the middle.
Next 3 shots are of Tera. I've started to rein her in a bit now as I need to reclaim a bit of room for the cutting. If you remember that 9 fingered leaf, it's right at the bottom and shows just how much growing she's done since that leaf came out exactly 28 days ago. There's a picture of the top canopy and one of the side colas too. She's around 2 weeks into flowering so those colas have some filling out to do but I'm pleased with her so far.
Last 2 are of Veronica, the next girl to be harvested and finally a shot of Pandora doing very nicely outside.

Good to see Pandora coming back strong :-) Veronica looks a beauty, everything looks so healthy V12. Tera looks vigorous still. Thanks for keeping this going, I get a real kick out of seeing what you do inside that case.

V12, I harvested that little Kush today so I'm going to take a look and see how the roots look in that Sphag moss (I'll learn to spell it correctly one day :-)

Hey thanks CV.
The thread doesn't seem to want to be closed so I figure why not pop the odd update in. Glad you like them.

Tera is pretty good overall but with her height she has been messing with my airflow and consequently she has a bit of heat stress on both the edges from being so close to the ballast of the light. It's nothing major but I think I may have just bought the ideal solution.
It turns out that you can buy external ballasts for cfl's and also the accompanying ballast-free bulbs. They do 150/200/300w bulbs so I've gone for a 150. That's still a 25% increase in my available light but with a fraction of the heat. I think it was my lucky day spotting that kit.
Have a look under cfl's at nlight dot co dot uk if you are interested.

EDIT: Forgot to say I would be most interested in seeing the rootstock for that monster, and especially any extra growth from using the moss. Please post a shot if you can.

Nice v12 looking good. Your cutting looks just like mine that i did today i got 2 clones going on now ^^. The first one is of the plant i think is female and the one i did today is from the plant that im sure is a male i did it just to see if i could and who knows i might put him outside somewhere and keep him there and collect pollen from him ^^.

That would be a dick move honestly to put the male outside. I would be pissed as hell if my outdoor female got pollinated by someone elses male

Hey MC
Just got back from the MotoGP so I haven't seen them for a couple of days. I'll snap some pics when the lights go on in a couple of hours.
Chopped this baby last week though. Biggest cola I've had from the case I think :)

Damn lol i want a cola i don't care if it is small lol i want one >.< :hump:. I got a question someone asked me today. Around harvest season is there a way for cops to get in helicopters and use something to see if there is weed being grown in the house? Like thermo vision or some shit?
