Thanks man yeah shes growing like a beast. That waiting game must suck! How much longer till your court date? You can get $7500 a lot easier then you think. Banks hand out loans like candy for situations like this!! Go get a personal loan, you might get hit with a little higher of an interest then you would want. But you'll get your money in a timely manner! Hope everything goes ok with it bro, and to let you know, my offer still stands.

Yeah it is very hard. But she wasn't bulking up that much so I'm only giving her this much for the next 5 days. Then I will start bringing down the ppm down to 1400 for 2 weeks. Then I will flush with balanced ph water for the next 2 weeks, maybe shorter if she looks ready. I figure it might stress the plant if I go from high PPM to just water, so I'm going to slowly take down the PPM to the day it starts to be flushed. But she definently loves Dutchmaster nutes. They gaurantee a 40% bigger yeild, and it sure does look like it lol!

edit: I think I get what you mean. My water isn't actually 1700ppm by itself. It's that with the nutrients in there. When I post Nutes in Resevoir, i mean stuff I add that day. There are still nutes in my resevoir. I'm not to sure if thats what you were directing, but I think thats the way I re-read it lmao! so high!

looking more beautiful everyday now. Shes really bulking up nicely...

Yeah bro she really is. I wish I could get my next grow off the ground, but I don't want to start anything until I have everything perfect in the op.

More pictures below.

More Bud Pr0n with the lights off for a couple of minutes!

 

[thegigglepimp]

Pics keep getting better n better haha how tall do you reckon she is now man? If she was grown outdoors in perfect environment i hate to think how big she'd get!

 

[Alto]

yeah dude was just teasing (I'm in a joker mood this morning)
It said None for nutes and PPM1700 is what I was gettin at lol

Yeah better to ween her from the nutes your right.
although I doubt stress is a problem at this point

Are you going to use the Dutch Masters Flush (whatever it is?)
[edit] I just looked at their site and they dont make a "flushing" agent that I can see.[edit]

I was going to maybe try the Van de Zwaan Drip Clean next grow.
It kinda flushes extra nutes during the entire grow almost eliminating flushing at the end other than maybe a week of just water.
In fact I just decided to use their products for my entire next grow. lol

Meanwhile I think I will use a flush of some sort (General Hydroponics FloraKleen) most likely.
Keeping to ALL GH nutrients and supplements this time around.

dude shes looking beautiful man AHHH i'm jealous lmfao !#@% arg ,i 'm smoknig some fire tho lol

She'd probably be 12 feet tall if she was outside lmao. Right now she's probably 4 feet tall. If she wasn't tied down it'd be close to 7 feet, maybe more. I'm definently expecting over an ounce on her lol.

Thanks for that helpful info alto. I'm definently going to pick up some of that FloraKleen. You said stress isn't much of an issue at this point. Is there a part of growing where you can basically not make it hermie. I know there is no light leaks intruding the grow op, but I do turn the lights off for a couple of minutes to take these pictures. I'm not to sure if that will make it hermie, but I don't interupt the dark period just the light period.

dude shes looking beautiful man AHHH i'm jealous lmfao !#@% arg ,i 'm smoknig some fire tho lol

hell yeah bro, i got some fire myself. passes. Hopefuly I won't have to worry about purchasing from sketchy dealers once I'm done with this crop!

yeah man best of luck to you with everything, sucks it had to come down to a loan.

I should be getting my 5 Northern Lights feminised seeds in the next 7 days. I will start germing hopefully in the next 3 weeks.

Looking gooooood T! Hows she smelling?!

Thanks bro I love waking up every morning to see how much they have progressed!!! They are smelling wonderful. It's amazing how the smell is staying mainly in the closet. I figured it would be reaking out the whole room but it's not.

I should have another picture update in the next few hours, stay tuned!

you and her are doing a great job toolage. keep it up. I was thinking when I saw these pictures that you could definatly take the pics from your updates and make some kinda slide show with them and see MAJOR improvement between each of them, when someone right after you updated said something about that. lol
Arent you sooo much happier now that your gonna be able to see her run her full flower, I know canceling the cruise sucks but @ least now u get something for it.

haha yeah thegigglepimp did that in his journal as well. I think when I get some more free time I'll definently make that. I am definently excited about letting her grow out, but it's ok about the cruise I'm going to Vegas soon enough. Thanks for your support Kochab!! I have a question coming up!

 

[toolage]

Alright, I've decided to go ahead and change the water today while I have time. I will be going out of town this weekend and won't be back till Monday. So, I wanted to make sure that water levels wouldn't get too low while I'm gone.

Before I add water in my resevoir, I was wanting to ask a question. There are a bunch of lower branches that aren't getting that much light. The bud's are very small and I was wondering if it was safe to cut them off. There are probably about 5-8 small branches that I would like to cut off and maybe 1 of them is a decent sized branch, but it's at the very bottom.

I have a picture below that has 2 of the bigger branches circled. Any input on whether it is safe to cut these off would be appreciated. I don't want to put them under too much stress, or even make them go hermie at this point. Thanks alot everyone!!
