i read that you can use molasses for nutrients. heat it up a bit so it mixes well with the water. 1 Tablespoon per 1 Gallon of water.

so here are the plants 3 weeks after being planted in the soil. the lighting was sketchy at first, but they seem to be happy with their current set-up. stretch is now 4.5 inches tall with a leaf span of 5 inches. momma is 3 inches tall with a 4 inch leaf span. i'll be planting them in 3 gallon...

what a nice greenthumb you have. yummy.

i spent a couple of weeks on the island of molokai and it is definitely the place to live. small town feel, family-like atmosphere. amazing vibe and great people.

brilliant. i left the cardboard under the pizza so it came out all dough-eee. i ate it anyway. yum.

i just read that i should wait 5 to 6 weeks on the nutrients. i did the p test and it's 6.5/7.0 so that's good. i don't know what i was thinking earlier about the ph being related to the nutes...i'm retarded. anyway, so now i just wait.

you can get a ph tester for around $5 at the garden store. the ph should be under 7 so they end up being females.

i totally thought about that after...16 inches divided by 4. :) i got a ph tester today and picked up houseplant food that's 8-7-6/N-P-K. the soil i used had nitrogen added, but that is used up after 3 weeks. i kind of don't want to screw too much with them so i'll only add it if the ph is too high.

it looks like our kids are at the same age. i started on the windowsill and switched to the 4 ft floro's. yours are lookin' good.

whoah, newtoit, you're going to town on this grow. you're makin' me feel a little lazy ovah here. the gps/map thing was groovy, as is your new camera. rock on.

good advice, thank you very much.

So the kids are growing at their own pace, which seems to be pretty average. It's been 17 days since they went in soil, but the lighting has been totally erratic. For example, they were in the dark for 24 hours over this past Saturday night. I watered them before I left and plant A had 1 droopy...

you are totally macgyver, dude. i can't wait to watch them grow.

congrats on choosing those great sites. are you going to use chicken wire around the plants to keep away critters?

i would want to know who called in the anonymous tip to lead to the power company, search warrant, etc.

duuuuuude, larry brigham! he's totally responsible. did you see how he was smiling when he was talking about it being a nuisance? the reporter was like why is it a nuisance and larry's all because you have to take care of the plant. no shit, sherlock. pretty much everything needs some kind of...

so sorry about the misfortune, man. did you tell a lot of people about the grow operation? and yeah, who is larry? maybe he's responsible.

i saw that bear pic, crazy! holy wilderness planter, you are. there was a bobcat in my town over winter, but definitely no bears around here. the deer are out of control, though, so i decided against the outdoor thing. i subscribed to your journal so i'll be sure to follow your adventure. that...

just added to the pot. i should have started them off in smaller pots and then transplanted to the 3 gallon pots. clearly, i didn't think this through before i planted them. like you, i was planning on moving them outdoors so they would flower in the summer when the sun is good. now that i...

newtoit, it looks like our little ones are close to the same age. i added some extra soil and gave them a drink. yours are looking great.
