Pics of my garden: SSD, KM, BG, BL, T, Flo, RD

A trick I picked up for a topped plant is to cross the stems at the bottom and bend them on the opposite side. Topped plants produce two stems that are bow legged, if we bend them on their side of the bucket we bend against the natural curve. The Flo in the picture above trained incredibly easy because of the crossed stems.

I think you need to trademark your CCOG method.

I'd like to scrog, but it's just not practical with my perpetual harvest setup. I am going to have to give this a try. Thanks for explaining it so well.

 

[sweetgod420]

which promix blend?

 

[Hobbes]

.

I use Pro Mix professional if it's available.

[GHOPZZ]

did you get your big laughing from dr.greenthumb? how did you apy and how long did it take to get to you?

 

[Hobbes]

.

Yes Dr Greenthumb. I ordered by mail, money order. It took about 3 weeks and I live in Canada. If ordering now I'd do it by credit card, faster turn around delivery and you're sure he's got your order.

.

 

[GHOPZZ]

kool, thanks hobbes, what was your germ rate ?

 

[Hobbes]

.

I lost a seed about a year an a half ago because I planted the seed upside down and the root died before I caught it. It haunts me but it wasn't a Big Laughing, I was careful with Greenthumb's beans and got 100% with Big Laughing and his mix pack.

Should have used a magnifying glass to spot the dimpled and scalloped ends. Vain and overconfident, it cost me a seed.

so basically your plants can bud a 3 foot plant while staying less then 1 foot tall after training around that bucket? is that the purpose? im a new grower, very little space to grow in and this may be just what i need.

"so basically your plants can bud a 3 foot plant while staying less then 1 foot tall after training around that bucket?"

Two of the Super Strawberry Diesel indica phenos in the pictures on page 5 had total stem legnth of 80+ inches each and the tallest colas were only 6" above the bucket rim.

"is that the purpose?"

Mostly, but I find ccob plants have a shorter flower period, increased yield and potency over the plants I grew vertically.

Training the stems takes some practice and patience, should be done the first time with clones you can afford to kill.

How's the jillybean hobbes pal?

I just ordered a pack of 10 on the tude and I'm planning on firing up my op in my new place November 1st!

 

[Hobbes]

.

Jilly Bean is great W1cked. I germinated 3 JB, Jack The Ripper, Pandora's Box, White Widow and Killer Chemdog at the same time - all of my JB cutting rooted before any other strain; I put all the cutting in flower at 4 nodes, the other cuttings range from 8" to 13", the JB are all taller with the tallest at 21". Starting to bud up quicker than the other clones too. Very healthy easy to grow plants.

And I got 3 for 3 females. Which is a nice change from the 25% I had gotten from Kali Mist. Flip of the coin, regression.

Good luck with your grow!!

Noiiice! I'm glad to hear everyone getting such amazing results with the JB.

Everyone I talk to just has the best things to say about it, especially it's ease of grow and potency/short flowering cycle.

I still haven't found anyone hands on who can contest the smoke, but from what I hear from subcool and his report, it should be some of the best tasting weed ever.

I can't wait to get up and growin again, it's been like a disease eating away at me for months!

Raiderman i apologize jus for being alive and i am a dum crook-ginny,,and forgive me for ever qestioning yu, wat stupid jerkwad i am,,,iknow i been a real pest and its jus that i want yu to like me.

[Hobbes]

"i'd have to beat yu up first."

I'm sure you could, I can tell by your avatar that you are one tough cookie. I mean COME ON! When you changed your old avatar to that one after you saw that I was going to call you on being a jackass ... wow, what a tactical move.

Such wisdom can only come from EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE.

.

"i agree with most of it ,except the part about being my friend."

It doesn't really matter what you think anymore, does it? BFF.

Here are a few pics of my flower room, I've got a couple of plants in various stages of flower and some just in 12/12 for a week.

.

This is from one end, the garden is 8' x 3' ID. It's made of 2" x 4" framing with Reflectix for reflection. Each side has 2 four foot panels of Reflectix that can be rolled up and tied so I can get to any spot in the garden quick and easy. The ends roll up as well.we'll do a comparrison here.i'm gonna do daily comparrisons.

.

From the other end, behind the 3 Kali Mist clones in my Aqua Mist.

.

This is the light rail and fan ducting.

.

Two Kali Mist plants, the smaller cola in front is part of a 4 cola in Pro Mix, the larger cola with the pop bottle in back a single cola in DWC.

.

The two Kali Mist together outside the cage. The 4 cola was vegged in promix to 14" and ended up 38". Very dense buds. The single cola is the DWC, fluffy buds but crusty with trichs, from 5" in veg to 47". On the 4 cola plant, the stem in the middle - you can see the dark green bamboo stick I used as a splint. The colas are dense and heavy and two of the stems almost snapped.

.

A Bubblegum (left) and a Red Diesel in my Aquamist. The Red Diesel is the clone that I treated with Reverse the first two weeks of 12/12 to prevent hermieing. The mother and another clone hermied excessively.

.

My air filter contraption.

.

A Bubblegum Clone I'm vegging, and a Bubblegum that's been flowering 10 weeks (wrapped in Reflectix). It was a poor clone and I didn't want to waste a spot in my Aquamist so I put it in a 2 liter pop bottle with some fertilized water I had left over. I forgot about it and was amazed when it started producing buds. I've only changed the water twice, it has no air added to the water. Stress test.

.

My Aquamist and Nutridip tri meter. The white fencing is PVC, makes life easier.

.

3 Kali Mist in the back right (from 1 1/2" - 3" in veg to 30", 32" and 33"). The tall spear on the left is Taiga, Big Laughing in front of the Taiga.

.

A Flo clone in RDWC.

.

Flo in Pro Mix, double topped and the branches bent, wrapped around the rim of the bucket, and fastened with twist ties through holes drilled every 2" in the top of the bucket.

.

Taiga (left) and Big Laughing. The Taiga is an autoflower (Power Plant cross) and ended up 33". The Big Laughing has a consistant stretch of 50%, it's 24". To the right is a Super Strawberry Diesel 4 cola that I'm growing horizontal.

.

4 SSD, 1 Flo and 1 Kali Mist being trained for my version of a screenless scrog.

.

A Kali Mist clone I'm training. I put it into flower at 12" but it didn't stretch at all, formed a top bud right away. I'm putting it back in 24/0 until it grows a few inches.

.

My veg room, not much to look but it works. A few clones laying around ... no room in the flower garden. The tall 4 stem in the back is a Kali Mist male I kept in case I wanted to breed.

.

hahaha,yu come to my thread knockin my plants and i find this,hahaha,yu are such a fool.

 

[Bob Marley Chiefs]

got yourself a real nice looking room there... not to mention the foot tall colas in the back... and the this ass colas up front...looks like you got it all under control...keep up the good work

You run a SOG right? I was by your thread and saw some pics of those little beauties. What do you get, about 3/4 of an ounce off each?

Or are you lying again and ... no, I know they are your plants. You have way too much character to try to lie to the forum, or pull the wool over their eyes. We can all take you at face value, can't we. Tough guy.
