Cheers \|/Joker420\|/..have you harvested.....?

my mom found it and we had to have "the talk" lol

Maaann..that thought still instills Fear in my heart...."the Talk"...eeeiiiooowwww..

JM...WOW..Wow...and wow....M88888888888...............
I Love the time-lapse...That is what I look for in my girls..growth like that to Tropical Forest Standards.
That video..through to harvest..would Inspire Me to grow.
kudos M8..
Loved the grow room vid...was kinda like walking through them...Brilliant...
But..
you Killed me when you speeded up..Instant vertigo...
I had to look away..

Come spring..you can teach me How To and I will do a virtual tour of the patio...
Never waste a Talent....

You can really SEE the height and depth of them on vid.
You have some ultra Sati bitches sitting in there.

FullD...Did you happen to find an amazing piece of kit...

Wey hey K21..you got there safe and sound....Have a great time...
​

The fungus gnats are still there but their numbers are lowered, whats working best is sticky yellow traps, perlite helped but I think sand should do better...

another problem was the pH of water, I couldn't find an RO filter anywhere, so I ended up using Ascorbic acid in the form of effervescents (Redoxon), 2 tablets are lowering pH from 8.50 to 6.50 in 20 Liters.

The presence say you still have an ACID problem somewhere...
if there are less..you might have diluted it some...maybe your ph buffer.
Try using the vinegar to buffer..EXCELLENT results here.

I was checking out the girls...Maaannn..they are looking Beautiful.
There is a girl in the left hand corner..raised pot..in a tank..that really has me Greedy Eye...
who is she..?
And..are you seeing colour..noted one bud shot seems to have colour down the bottom of the pistils.

I tried using vinegar, I had to use like 2 teaspoons per 2 Liters, which is too much and since gnats are attracted to fermented smell it might actually lure them in...

the girl on the left is an ICU#2, I was training the main cola under the SCROG net and it snapped :O like 75% severed, so I applied some duct tape around the wound, next day it kept on growing now there's a bump around the wound... so strong!

I'm not seeing any color on leaves, some plants are showing colored calyxes, mostly ICU and BB, ICU calyxes are almost black, BB is more like pink...

Seems like the older dying leaves are still dying off but the newer leaves are doing great after the vinegar treatment. I can see my first bud site developing and its been about three weeks. How many bud sites do you usually get with autos? Man, so stoked that my plant seems to be doing much better after taking your advice J! Looks like I might have a little harvest after all. Merry Xmas all!

which is too much .....there you have it...Too Much vinegar has knocked your water acid...that is what the problem is.
Same as too alkali..just a different set of Problems.

next day it kept on growing now there's a bump around the wound... so strong!

Hearts like little Lions m8...
you accidently super-cropped her.
Amazing isn't it..if you stick them together quick..it usually works.

IF you don't find the split until later and it has dried out...
you scrape it..expose Both surfaces down to the juice..and tape.

The only thing to watch is if you get infection in...same as an open wound on yourself.

some plants are showing colored calyxes, mostly ICU and BB, ICU calyxes are almost black, BB is more like pink...

Woo...hooooo....purples and reds.
BB in Red is what I'm looking to isolate out....Reds are RRRRacey...pulse racey....

I would buy the dvd man, those plants are beautiful.

Yours are too...you just Know the smoke is gonna be a Dream when the girls look like that....

vcpenny...Merry Christmas...
now you have your problems sorted..your next grow should be even better..roll on...

oh mossy I missed your trich shots!

Happy christmas everyone

 

[Fruitbat]

I don't post much but I thought I'd add my micro photos taken of a Nirvana Short Ryder Autos (400 HPS, custom soil, 4x4x7 tent). I figure there are enough macro photos of the plants so I will just post these. I like micro-porn myself.

I don't have a digital microscope but I used my old analog one and just put the lens of my Canon SD300 up to the ocular. It worked fairly well. These are taken at 40x.

First one is of a pistal. Note the translucent & amber trichomes in the background. This is my favorite shot.

Trichomes.

More pistals.

More trichs.

Pistal and trichomes.

Nice pictures! my first grow was a nirvana short rider.

Thanks. This is my first (other than a really poor attempt 15 years ago that was oddly enough a ruderalis grow). I learned everything from RIU and I am very pleased with my results. Couldn't have done it without this forum. Oh, I'm calling that particular plant "Santa's Little Helper".
