    I was lucky, the snapped stem was resting naturally on some branches next to, taking the weight, so a little tape to help hold it, and away we go :) I definitely left them too long to start training, the blue cheese in my 400w tent, which were a week younger, have better results from todays...

    Good to see you back, and lovely looking ladies....can I ask one thing, can you rotate your pics please so I don't get neck ache admiring your handy work. I never used to, till I bothered playing around with the laptop, and it's easy. Double click the file so the pic opens in Window Photo...

    Oh yeah, and excuse the state of my kitchen. Tending and watering my ladies is always done first thing, so they have a full day of light to appreciate my efforts... house work takes second place

    Well, I got inspired by the chat the last day or so, so went about training my Big Buddha Cheese ladies. I had already topped them late in veg to slow them down a bit while the flower chamber became free (and to aid growth and yield of course). I was gonna leave them like this as they had grown...

    Grazz - the green on your plants always seems "just right"...never too dark, never too light....jealous

    Mong - it's all relative to the size of your plants. When i first got my 250, i put 4 plants in, and flowered them pretty small, at 10" or, and they got to 20-24" by the end. BUt i still had space and threw a couple of small clones in 500ml pots in the spaces to soak up any extra light and give...

    Fucking goddam America!! It's not fair!! Mason jars like that in the Uk are only really available from specialist kitchenware and hardware shops, and for glass ones it costs about, erm....$10-15 dollars each for one that would hold about a litre of water. On the plus side, woke up this morning...

    Glad you liked it, I was afraid it would be lost and I would have some tedious explaining to do :) Whenever I go to The 'Dam, that's exactly what some of the coffee shops remind me of, cos the actually have shelves with jars and jars of budd behind the counter :) On a sadder note, I came home...

    The only preference for glass over plastic is that largely glass have a smoother surface, and less likely to steal the trich's from your budds, but as long as you aren't too rough with the jars, I don't see this being a huge issue...and perfectionist rather then necessary. I would reccommend...

    Good old nirvana!! Most of my seeds come from there, love the service. JustP - are you growing in soil? what do you feed with? and do you feed every watering? Do you use any soil conditioners like molasses or zymes? From those pics, It is hard to see, but doesn't look like many amber hairs...

    Thanks. I've grown Blue mystic, AK-48, and Strawberry cough before, which have all pretty much doubled, tried Aurora Indica and it grow from 18" to nearly 4' in flower, and cuased me no end of bother. I currently have some Buddha Cheese, and Blue Cheese (http://www.bigbuddhaseeds.com) and hoping...

    That's exactly what got me into smoking weed in the first place, after I finish this grow and move in a few months, recon that will be my next strain. Also, that's how to make full use a smaller tent...bravo!!!

    I find mixing the soil really enjoyable almost theraputic, and use basically that method with what ever i'm mixing. At one point I was mixing 2 types of soil, perlite, clay pebbles and worm-castings, in a large cake mixing bowl...needed to fill it and mix twice for every 7 gallon pot....many a...

    That reminds me, I've been meaning to ask you...HOw much lime to put in my soil mix? My hydro shop doesn't store it, and gardening shops always look at me funny, but popped into a hardware store for something else , and stumbled across a 1kg bag of "gardening lime". I use Biobizz Light mix, and...

    I hear a lot of good reports about pineapple express. Is it a sat? Is is the flavour that's the appeal? or the high? or both?

    Nice! I must say I am also loving the lower ambient temps at the moment, got a 250 tent and 400 tent next to each other, and the room they are in doesn't get ridiculously hot...just nice

    Oh yeah I always calibrate, 2 or 3 weeks (if i'm really lazy)...took it to the hydro shop and tried some cleaning solution as well, definitly one dead pen. Have another one now, which I won't drop, cos there is no way I can keep affording £50 every 6 months :) I was using epsom salts late veg...

    Cupping leaves, moisture or root bound? Thoughts please?

    Thanks for all the input, I had noticed the Mg def, and have bought a new pH pen today, and gave them 300ml each with some Gold Label ultra Mg in it, at 6.6pH so hopefully that will sort out the defs (being that Nit can't be used properly by the plant without Mg). They were repotted into a...
