The slow death march tune quietly hums in the background as Jig puts one of his weeds to rest. RIP little one!!! Boohoo.

Glad the weekend went well old parts.

Incredible day here....the sun is shining ffs!!! Glad I ain't no night creeping blood sucker.

Peace, DST
Thanks for the well wishes on the departed. Let's keep that sun shining for another couple weeks, eh?

Just becuase you can go out in the sun, ou may be a blood sucking night creeper still. That's to be determined, lol.

Lookin good Jig. Sorry to here about the departed. Its always sad to see. Glad t see you back though bra. Peace 1BMM
Sorry I been gone so much my friend. I feel as though I've abandoned you on your grow. If you ever have questions you want answered just pm me bro. I want the best for the hydro attempt.

sucks about the little one that didnt make it but the others will make up for it, still holding strong.

the one in the tube is looking the best to my eye, so the transfer and new batch of water willl bring them right back.
It's a good thing I got 6, lol. Down to 4. Oh well... should still be an awesome grow by the end of things.

The really liked the new water.

No offense to your feline friends jig but im a dog man, and i am currently separated from my pal. my dog is unfortunately 3 times the allowed weight where i live and is a banned breed here =( i have a beautiful doberman pincher that is 105lbs. so my bean bag is safe for the time being.

All good bru. Dog people are alright. Sad you are not with your little buddy. I know how sad I am when I don't get quality time with the furry ones. They are so relaxing to me.

Feel free to post a pic of the 'little' guy.

Well damn how did I not notice your new thread start!? bongsmilie:eyesmoke::eyesmoke:

This is great bro. After having my head in a sharepoint book all day, its nice to come onto RIU and read about vampires, housecats, 1000w Light prospects, and your incredible yields from the previous grow.

Sounds like you are a lil lazy with your hydro maintenance this grow. ;) Im just poking at you, but I have done the same. "Nahh I got this" you think to yourself, next thing you know you got Rams Horns and PPMs through the roof! Hehe, another reason why i love the old poop juice method, lol. Lazy as it gets while still maintaining a proper PH and PPM. :P

Im sorry if I missed it, but where is your rez situated at?

I am officially caught up, so am passing on the good vibes!!! :bigjoint:
The rez is below the table.... below the panda film. And I am getting lazy for sure. I am going to step it up. In fact I have been quite diligent the past few days and I think I can see a difference. They are getting a little bit bushy.

Glad you are here. Not sure how you missed the beginning. Too much sharepoint, lol.

What is sharepoint anyways? Work stuff? School?

Jig, Whats going on. How are those plants looking now? Hope all is better. Are you gonna scrog this one out? I have a link to my new journal in my old journal (round 2)
Glad you made it my friend. Also nice to have you back on RIU. Plants looking happy these days. I just installed the screen right now... so yes I am scrogging it on this one.

I'll check the new grow.

Cant wait to start my own. soon, soon.
Me neither bro.

it's a bubblin....
.... and a rumblin....

you gotta get a lab coat for the next video so it could look official...lol
I actually wore a lab coat for about 6 years for a job. I think I've had enough of that, lol.

Now they're looking a lot better, not that I was ever worried... =)

Looks good, sums it all up ;)

Thanks my friend. Can't wait for the coming weeks. ;-)

they turned around for the better, looking good :weed:
Thanks my friend. I am hoping they look as good after my vacation. We'll see huh.

Alright, so I've been bad with updates lately. I've been doing all kinds of new stuff in my life, which has been very exciting, but it's also hard to change you know. Like I really miss being on RIU and talking with you guys. Learning new stuff and sharing my grow and my life. It's cool becuase I've been getting back in contact with old friends... but kinda lame it comes at the expense of my growing friends. I've met a lot of you guys, and plan on meeting more, but even the ones I will never meet, I really value you.

This growing hobby or whatever you want to call is has been so great to me, but it's in major part becuase of the awesome community I've had to share it with. I've found that growing all on my own, (like I have lately) is not as much fun. I don't have anyone to share it with. And what's the point of doing things on your own. I mean it's alright sometimes, but the best times are spent with friends and family... even if they are over the internet.

Apologies if I am making of you blush, but you mean a lot to me. :hug:

About the grow... I've handled the pH lately, and I'm monitoring the ppms as well. The plants are looking pretty good. Not perfect, but good for sure. I installed a screen around 3 of them... going to put the rest up soon. I guess I will tie them back soon. See how they fit all spread out.

I'm thinking of taking the big one in the center and 'supercropping' it. Like breaking it and turing it to the left, to open up more room for the little odyssey... any thoughts on this. I am thinking just snap the stalk about 6 inches up from the medium and tieing up the plant to the screen to stay up. When do people usally supercrop? is it too late? how long do I need to wait to flower?

I don't think I'm going to 12/12 until maybe 2 weeks from now. Maybe another week. I've been vegging them slow on purpose. I'm glad they aren't growing an inch a day... I'd be out of space quick.

Well here's a few pics. Enjoy.

The first is how I anchored the screen to the wall. Grow room construction with a grow in progress required extra skill. You have to drill with one hand and hold the shop vac with the other. I guess I can't call this stuff medical grade anymore, lol..... like I ever could.

Well, hell, it works good enough, who need sterile buds?

Hey Jig, Looking good but I can only see 3 plants, am I blind?:lol: or maybe shtoned:bigjoint:

You can super crop any time really, I have supercropped my clones a few weeks old, right up to 2 weeks into flowering, 3, weeks, 4 weeks, etc.
I think it is easier to do on green branches, perhaps 6 inches up you will be okay. Hardened bark based stems and branches are a bit riskier. Unless you are really mad it's hard to do it wrong, just don't break the outer wall too much. It all repairs itself anyway.
As far as making more room, I think with the vertical, I would say it's a no brainer in my opinion, so go for it bru. You will love the extra whammy it gives your plant by giving them a good snapping, hahaha.

How long do you need to wait until flower, how longs a piece of string my friend. I think a couple of weeks would do it though.....no point going over the score, they are going to fill out those screens big time any-ga-hoo bru.:lol::bigjoint: Can't wait to see it all happening.

Peace

Sounds like a good sipping drink. And yes... Married with children is under rated. I watched that show so much while it was on. Totally thought christina applegate was super hot, lol.

Glad to have you here. I was actually saving a spot up front for you. It's the one labled "Purple Kush God". If there are any scrubs sitting there feel free to notify security.

Looking good Jig, looking good.

Look forward to it my friend.

The 4th plant is hiding behind the glass of the cooltube. You can kinda see the tip peeking up.

Thanks for the tips on super cropping. I guess I should do that like now. Damn, I'm feelng lazy.

LOL... speakng of security and chairs and stuff. Reminds me of the funniest story. I went to see a basketball NBA game at the Meadowlands in New Jersey. Me and my wife had tickets, pretty cheap, way up there, but whatever, I never seen NBA before. So we get to our seats and there are some young guys there. Kinda looking hood a bit, but no thugs... basically like I was in High school. So I ask them to move as these were our seets. HAHAHAHAHA... the dude looks at me and says "Well, there is someone in our seats, so I'm not getting up. You can go ask them to move."

I was like "Are you fucking serious".... and he says "Yes." All strait faced, LOL.

Anyways, I asked the usher to fix things, and what was funny was only the two kids in our seats got up and left... we spent the rest of the game surrounded by their friends. The guys who were still there were making fun of the departed friends... laughing at how they told me to get the guys out of their seats. Even the buddies recognized how lame their friends were.

How wuss. You can't even ask someone to get out of YOUR seat. I may not be much of a "man" sometimes, but geez. You gotta have at least a little pride, no?

peace fellas

Hey Jig!

First off, assholes for those kids to do that to you in front of your wife at the basketball game. I would not have had the patience you displayed and you are a better man than most for handling it the way you did. I think I would have 'escorted' those young men myself, which would have been stupid. :)

Anyways! I like what you said earlier in your thread:

I've found that growing all on my own, (like I have lately) is not as much fun.
I couldnt agree more. Unfortunately there are assholes out there, but if one is careful they can really make an enjoyment out of growing. I dont have the luxury of living in cali, but I can at least hop on an encrypted vpn connection and access this site from a server located in Amsterdam and share my fun with good friends along the way!

Sharepoint is just Microsoft's bloated web based collaboration tool that companies use to setup intranet and internet websites.

LMAO at your pointless picture you posted. :bigjoint:

Your girls look really really good and im jealous of your temperature readings in your latest vid :)

edit: im really really ....really high right onw
