Tahoe OG in Dual Monster Plant System (Scrog Edition)

[The Mantis]

Lookin' nice. That's pretty much how mine looked at that stage, so this is probably what yours is gonna look like later? Or maybe something like this? Thanks, and good growing!

btw I would recommend serenade over neem. Serenade is light safe and you spray directly on the bud... and with OG's you sometimes have to.

Thanks Jin. Hope mine will look like yours. I'll go pick up some serenade asap. Appreciate the help.

that the problem with scrog's Jin. makes them susceptible to pm if it isnt dialed in. You pack those colas so close and its just a breeding ground for pm. green cure is also a very good treatment but it will burn the pistils if you are not careful with the dosage. also bene teas make a very noticeable difference with pm as well.

So I've read, and now experienced first hand. They've gotten to the point where they're spacing themselves out a bit as they pack on size, but yeah, it's getting crowded just below the very top of the canopy. I literally plunge my whole torso into that jungle to spray the powdery shit down way at the bottom closest to the screen where it's worst. I come back out with my forearms all sticky. Smells incredible.

Yeah, and watch out for over-active N and Mag deficiency later on with that Tahoe. Don't fuck up like I did. Lol.

Me, cut at day 25.

The Mantis, Cali-Connect at day 25.

Comments Cheeze? DST?

I, personally, give a lot of credit to the Mantis for growing an OG bud that is comparable to a similar strain grown in a hyper-power dependent hydro system. You also have to remember, my photo is bigger and closer to the bud.

Don't worry about paying me just yet, once the site gets rolling I just want a piece of the pie after. I do this type of stuff for fun sometimes and I've really wanted to be involved with another great idea / community site. The last one I made(Project-boredom.com now offline) was a tutorial site that was pulling 300 unique a day, which is respectable considering the fact it was only online for a year. That was 10 years ago though, I've had a lot of odd jobs since then.

Anyways... when you get those sites that you like, link me to them and I'll loosely follow their design or style. I have a couple that I myself like. I also make Icons so if we wanted to make a photographic menu, MJ icon(growing), Lady Icon(girls), and games(icon) would be a cool set for a menu. Who knows, I've been trying to think of a good theme to base it off of, what should we go with?

Here is some of those sites:

PHP Web Hosting
Just go to their site, it says it all. Plus they have amazing customer service. I've referred 6 clients to them(I get nothing for it other than the satisfaction of having an amazing web host) and I've been with them for 8 years.
http://phpwebhosting.com/

http://www.2advanced.com/
Cool looking web design firm, they have edgy ideas.

http://www.thefwa.com/
Solid design, plus links to hundreds of amazing flash and css based sites. I got some flash expertise too, I've made around 20 or so videos over the years.

http://hightimes.com/
and a nice shitty(when I say shitty I mean that as to how they handle their content) website to make you sick to your stomach.

Wow, you're extra awesome, Slivers. You're totally speaking my language. I love your idea about the girls, grow, games icons. It really sounds like you're taking my broad description of the thing and actually materializing the details in your head. I like that.

Okay, let me look at the links you left and I'll hunt around for sites I like.

Now I know I said I wasn't gonna hurt my leaves this time. It's just that everything looks so damned yellow under that light, sometimes it's not really clear that deficiency is setting in... especially since everything moves so fast in my system.

I'm dosing with Calmag... so I'm trying my best to arrest this leaf trauma. Can Jin ever grow without punishing his leaves in late bloom? Damn. Lol.

Edit:

But a note once again to Cheeze. I said I wanted a challenging strain, and you gave it to me, brother. These chix are ultra low-feeding, ultra-sensitive PM whores. But the trouble is well worth it because I'm very pleased with bud/crystal structure, smell, density, and stickiness. It's all there. If your OG was too easy to grow, chances are, it's not OG OG. That's just my opinion.

 

[daveroller]

Sell the kids! Sell the wife! It's more bud porn! Huh? Must be high again.

Yes.

I don't know, Cheeze. Not to take anything away from Cali-Connect, but have you ever seen a seed plant do this?

Beautiful. Looks a lot different from the Diablo, but it's beautiful in it's own way. I like the light blue color of the flowers. Super healthy, too. I know it wouldn't grow so well in my simple system. All that oxygen, light and low temp in your setup is working wonders.

 

[lordjin]

The appearance of the Deadhead is a little questionable imo, but it smells great. I'll smoke that later.

This Grand Finale actually reminds me of the Diablo I grew a little in this photo.

Yes, very different as it should. This is a classic OG Kush structure here. That Diablo wasn't... A cut with an older lineage always looks more spacey and golf ball. That's why when the Diablos grew those massive donkey dongers, I was excited but part of me thought, "this is OG Kush?" Also, the Diablos smelled like a cross when finished, and I think part of it was my own 'custom Lucas formula' that took the taste and smell stronger to that crossed side and away from the OGK side. The OGK smell was there in the Diablo about a few weeks after cutting, but then they changed and the cross smell took over. These Tahoes smell like pure, original OG. And I get the feeling they would smell like that regardless of nute brand/technique. That's a sign of a true OG. So many things out there labeled OG for the name draw. You don't actually know until you grow it.

It's a tough one, alright. I actually want to try again with this same cut now that I know exactly what to expect. Any possibility of that Cheeze? Or the Louie if it's similar?

Holy shit, a lot happens here when you go away for a few days! I just got caught up, but had to read about 10 pages.

Wish I could help out with the web site... Sounds like an intriguing idea. In my past life I was a software engineer and worked at IBM for 17 years. But that was a bad career move, unless you want to stay in the same place until you retire. The stuff I did was very technical, but very IBM-only. Proprietary operating system. And the company (at least where I worked) was horrendous about letting people update their skills to keep up with the times. Anyway, good luck with the web-zine. I think it's a killer idea. I like reading this thread, so I'd read that too.

Maybe if you have a little non-graphic design grunt work to do, I could try my hand at a little something. Slivers is the man, though!

Thanks, Dave. The webzine should, according to all my careful calculations, take off rather naturally and easily.

Yeah, Slivers is the man. Getting other capable people involved will only help motivate me to coordinate a shoot. I already have two solid candidates who are both willing to be the "maiden voyage" girl, so it is in the works.

Raised the ppm a little again. These bitches are hungry. Fuck me if you see any PM. Fuck me, I say.

I think the nute/calmag boost is helping. The leaves look like they just might hang in there.

Starting to get pretty juicy...

I am a doctor...

I'll be your doctor...

I'm on my way...

You won't come down today.

One man and his war against PM. Fuck you, PM... Fuck you.

Edit:
Oh, skipping the water change. Gonna let them cruise until next weekend.

 

[hatsofftoya]

are you ever gonna do CO2, jin?

 

[lordjin]

are you ever gonna do CO2, jin?

Yeah, when I build my three vertical bulb room. Not practical right now for my suction box.

 

[hatsofftoya]

oh yeah, btw what ppm did you start flowering at? and what are you at now?

 

[lordjin]

oh yeah, btw what ppm did you start flowering at? and what are you at now?

Man, I can barely remember what I had for lunch yesterday. Let me think. I started flowering right around high six hundreds, and moved up to seven hundreds... now running 800ppm. I'll be scaling back starting probably mid to late next week or so.

 

[lordjin]

Okay, I haven't done any research of example sites yet. But I just wanted to take a moment to describe some rough sketches forming in my head.

I basically want to take these loose elements from my journals, tie them all together and expand upon them. Basically my journal but in the form of a fully realized electronic periodical.

The grows section will start with my weekly updated grow journal where I will feature a cut from a local club for possible cross-promotion (I can make a cut look good). Hopefully, as the project expands and more contributors come aboard, I can feature multiple real time grows from some of the best dudes and dudettes out there.

The girls section. Meanwhile I'll be regularly conducting "Emerald Goddess" shoots for the girl end of things. Again, more than just photo sets, my shoots will feature an in-depth written account of my experience with the model... and perhaps video interviews to accompany the article and photos. All 'smoking' photos will be simulated of course. I see a free section and a nude section (tame playboy style) as a 'donations' section. This will be down the line of course, as I want to get it up and running as sort of a super blog that everyone can see and access for free at first.

The games and other media section. Since this is my weakest area of knowledge, it's where contributors need to come in the most. I'll rely upon you and others for ideas and input. And remember, contributors don't have to write in perfect grammar... just as long as you can get by, and it doesn't sound too, too awful, I can proofread rather quickly.

In addition, I want to have regular special interest sections like "From the Dam" or "the Man on the Dam." I think that would be an especially strong feature that we def need to have. Hear that, DST? So don't get hit by a bus or something. Lol.

So from a web design perspective, it's all pretty straight forward stuff. Just a matter of making it look cool and function smoothly and intuitively.

Edit:
I think more than one journal viewer asked me to write a book? Well you guys really nudged me into this. Thank you. I can't remember who it was... but thank you.

Edit 2:
Oh, and most importantly... how could I almost forget? This zine (still working on the title) will be my personal soap box for the advancement of the sane use of cannabis for a saner society. News, good blog cross-links, and my own personal editorial page where I will regularly expound upon the virtues of smoking ganja, growing ganja, eating ganja... in short, everything short of having sex with ganja... which should not be confused with having sex ON ganja, which I fully endorse.

Anti-ganja political propaganda, bullshit shakedowns, bad legislation... This will be my own personal platform in my war against stupidity. Yeah, and I'm willing to photograph gorgeous naked models, smoke weed, and play more video games for you. Who said I wasn't willing to take one for the team? Lol.

lol fuck i've been veging around 560 just to keep it safe. I'm flowering tomorrow. Never ended up getting that tomato gate so i guess it's sorta gonna be like your diablo grow lol. shit's gonna stretchhhhhh.

i feel like by putting multiple strains in my system, a lot of my plants are being underfed. my BDH's were doing fine at like 800-900 ppm

Yeah, different strains having different needs is no joke.

I'm cookin' something up based on that feedback. Lets see if I can make something cool.
