Thanks! So my timer apparently burnt out the night before last, who knows how many hours of light I got that night (at least 3-4, that's when I went to bed). Last night I didn't realize the timer was out until almost 3 hours into what should have been lights-on, so there was definitely an...

Looking great! You should take some closeup shots of the bud starting to form, always fun to look at.

So I just recently got a bunch of emails for new posts on subscribed threads, but they are quoting posts that were made like 3-4 days ago. This has been happening a lot the last week or so. Is this something that is being addressed?

So are you saying that you are going to get lab results showing exact THC percentages for your pierced and control samples?

So I just wanted to point out that counting trichomes would be basically impossible, and even if you could do that it wouldn't tell you much about potency. If you don't have any way to directly measure the THC content of your final product (i.e., a lab result), then this experiment will only be...

Got my fingers crossed for you, man! Also, I don't recall whether this has been mentioned, but I'm not sure those CFLs are doing anything if they're as far away as they look in that picture. You want CFLs to be about 1-2 inches from your leaves. I don't know about the LED light, but I imagine...

Me too! Just another quick photo update, nothing else to report. These are from today, Day 34 of 12/12:

So I'm going to be leaving my lady unattended for 4 days soon, which will be the longest period I've gone without checking on her. I've been keeping the lights very close, so I tend to raise them every day or two to prevent the leaves from coming in direct contact with the CFLs. My plan is to...

Oh man that really sucks! RIU was apparently having issues with email notifications of subscribed threads, since I literally just got the email for the post you put up like 3 days ago. I say for your next grow, keep the fertilizer to a bare minimum. That's my philosophy, and I think I agree...

So now that I've decided to stick around, here's a quick update on Mother's situation... I really need to find a way to tap her into the air duct system I'm using for the flowering chamber. The high temperatures each day are regularly reaching and exceeding 100°F, one day getting as high as...

I have an album that I created by adding a bunch of my earlier uploads to the album, and then since that I've been adding photos as I upload them. However, due to the way the photos were added, they're all kinda jumbled chronologically. The filenames when I uploaded the pics should provide for...

Okay after sobering up and thinking about it for a day I'm going to give RIU another chance. I really do like the community here, I just wish their servers were a little more stable. So, sorry for the flip-flopping, but I'll stick around after all! So, in celebration, here's a super...

So I was trying to post this last night, but RIU seemed to be having some kind of server issues (again?), so I had to save it to a text file for later posting. As I'll explain below, I'm going to be largely abandoning this journal in favor of a different forum that has less server problems...

Sounds promising! Are you planning to keep the clone under 12/12, or put it into a veg chamber? EDIT: Removed link to other forum because I've flip-flopped and decided to stick around.

Of course I don't mind! The more subscribers I have, the more likely it is that I'll learn from my mistakes! Just a quick update... I've named the clone from the broken branch Snap, and she's doing pretty well: Mother's box got pretty hot during the day today, up to 101.6°F, so I moved her...

Just a quick update with pictures.... first off, the canopy today, on Day 29 of flowering, Day 54 from seed: As you can see, the flowers are starting to come along nicely. Here are a couple closer shots showing the flower development: I also watered again today, which is 12 days...

I'd say toss the clear plastic cup. In my experience the clones with domes take longer to root and have a lower success rate than the ones without. As to your question, I also don't know! For me in this grow, amount of time isn't really a concern, it's more about how big the plant will...

Well the reason I expect such a small amount per plant is I'll be rooting the clones under 12/12, and the clones will be taken from fully mature plants, so they will be forming roots for the first week or two of 12/12 probably, before their tops even start growing much. I haven't been able to...

Thanks! They actually stretched a whole lot last night, so I did some more training just now. I'll add pics tomorrow after all the tops have had a chance to twist around and adjust, but I am really worried I might run out of space before she stops stretching. If that happens and they grow up...

The screen really does help a lot with training. For my perpetual SOG, though, I'll be adding cuttings directly to the flowering box, without letting them veg at all, so I'm actually expecting very low yields (like maybe 5 grams dried per plant). That would have me producing around 150 to 200g...
