Went into flowering on the 6th. We're now 2 1/2 weeks in. Things are looking great. Both girls - lucky I know - and both super healthy. About another 6-7 weeks to go.

09/04/09 I've missed the last two days. Meh. Well, I was all set and ready to top A on the 2nd. I had the clippie out, the scissors cleaned, and I was on my knees inspecting where to cut - and I just couldn't do it. I was looking at all the growth I'd be cutting off - all that beautiful...

Hey Uncle Ben, I'm going to top one of my babies at the 2nd node to get 4 main colas. My question is - the part that I"m taking off (about 4-5 nodes worth of growth) what can I do with it besides clone it? Can I dry it out and smoke it? Make it into a light cannabutter? Is there any THC in...

09/01/09 Growin growin growin...

08/31/09 A looks a lot happier today. I think the stress of the water/nutes/bin/room/light change was too much. You think? Lol... They are doing/smelling great. Happy plants. :)

08/30/09 The new grow room is setup. I changed out the water/nutes. It's still at 30mL/4L. The light schedule is now 14/10. Wow - I can't believe they're going into flowering next sunday!!! They grow so fast. :) The new tub is a great improvement over the 3.5 gallon black one. The roots...

08/29/09 Went out and bought the bigger tub for tomorrow's water/nute /light change. I can't believe how much water the babies are consuming!

Thanks. :) Well, the closet I'm growing in right now is about 1 1/2 feet wide by 2 1/2 feet deep and I can get it to a height of about 5 feet. I'll probably be switching them to my bigger closet now that they're getting so big. I just bought a bigger tub, so they'll be in that tomorrow.

08/27/09 I missed today. Work meeting at 11am then worked 4-11 pm. No time to do anything but work and eat. 08/28/09 So, I had to move the lights up again. The growth over two days with A was unbelievable. B is being completely crowded out of the light. So - I've decided to go out...

08/26/09 Looking good. Posted the grow-site papers on my closet door. Still no signs of sex. I'm worried about how much A is crowding B. Maybe I'll just switch them both to a bigger tub.

08/25/09 Well, it's official that I'm official! I can now grow and smoke legally. The paperwork is all in and I should have my card in a few weeks. I'm so very pleased. The babies are doing great. I need to go out and pick up some rooting compound for clones. I don't know if I have...

08/24/09 I was worried that the 30mL solution would be too strong for the babies, but they're fine today. There is no discoloration that I can see so far. I was looking closely at A today. I've got suckers popping out of every branch split and from what I can count, I've got 5 true...

08/23/09 Changed the timer for 16/8 and upped the nutes to 30mL/2L. When I went to go change the solution, I couldn't believe that over half of it was gone! Thirsty babies... oh, and the smell is getting stronger. It's so light and sweet... I really hope they're both girls.

08/22/09 A is already showing improvement just from moving the lights up a little yesterday. We're almost back to normal. The new leaves that were coming in no longer look folded, and the older leaves are flattening out again. I took a closeup of A's earwig pincer looking things. I know that...

Aww, thanks! I'm a little concerned about the curling problem I'm having right now, but I'm sure it's an easy fix. I just can't wait to find out what sex they are. I can see the little earwig like pincers coming out of the place where the stem and main stalk meet, but no little hairs yet. I...

This is the update for 08/21/09. 08/21/09 Okay. Really concerned about the curling. I looked up some info about it on here and pretty much everyone said it was from having the lights too close. Heat damage. So, I raised the lights about 4 inches and if that doesn't solve the problem...

This is the update for 08/20/09 08/20/09 I'm concerned for A. It's leaves are curling in a little bit on the top leaves. B is still growing and has finally caught up to A. I was concerned for a while because B seemed to be growing pretty slow and when comparing pictures of the two on...

Yeah, I guess they do. It might be more just a "plant and water" smell, but it sure does smell like weed to me. :) I like when I open my closet - if I stick my head in right away and take a deep breath - I get a lung full of sweet baby weed smell and pure oxygen. Nice lightheaded feeling for a...

Thanks! I really enjoy seeing them grow. Actually, no. I only check the pH when i change the water. I try to keep it neutral, but I haven't needed to adjust anything. The water around here is pretty stable and the nutes I use don't seem to change the pH much. :) Guess I'm just lucky...

08/19/09 Oh man, it’s starting to get stinky in my closet. Hahaha… The babies are healthy and vigorous. I seriously need to go and get a new carbon filter for my air purifier. Another week or so, and it’s gonna stink up the whole place!
