1st from Seed Grow (Cowboy Style)

Hey Don.

Plants are looking great other than that hermie action.
Hopefully it's just a isolated incident.
How many times have you topped those babies?
Are you tieing them down and out as well?
 
hey Mam,

cheers ! yeah the hermie seems to be concentrating on budding now i havent seen any new balls for 3 days so fingers crossed, but ill be checking it every few days just to be sure. i know therell be some in the end product but shit happens eh!

i topped only once at about a foot and have trimmed off a lot of the tiny side shoots unless they were far up the plant. im not tying any at the mo ive been pinching and makin elbows and a bit of lst'ing with some spiral earth wire round the branches so far so good im pretty happy ive not lost any branhces cos i pinched too hard and they are fairly even spread to fill the tent i think 4 topped ones is deffo the max for a 1.2 x 1.2 i could squeeze a couple more in but they'd have to be sog style just main cola.

you think i shoul be tying them out?
 
clones are lookin like they might not make it :cry:

still no sign of my picknmix order:confused:
 
hey Mam,

Nah, just asking.
They look like they're being kept at a nice level so I was just wondering if you have any puppet strings attached.

The pinching and super cropping techniques are quite useful, especially when you have nothing to do when you go into the grow, it's nice to be able to pinch a few arses when there's fuck all else to do :o

and Yeah, I wouldn't give up on the clones just yet, they're not dead...
 
naa ne strings just wire and a stern telling keeps them in check!

haha whats life for if ya cant pinch a couple of cheeks here n there
 
so im feeling pretty elated! i had a muchos successful trip to BnQ this weekend! was looking for some normal plants to go in the hanging baskets n ended up spending a small fortune on shit for the garden a trolleyfull. store announcer piped up said last 5 mins go to the checkout, so the kids like 16 and couldnt give a fuck so he swiped the barcode reader over most of the stuff but not 2 trays of plants £6 each and a heated propagator £18 fucking SCOOOOORE.

no where near 100% i've got 3 root riot clones still in the new prop 3 from the bubbler in makeshift water pot things covered with card so they don't get light on the stems just as a tester 1 in a same style pot on the windowsill. ill probably give the ones in water as gifts to me pal just to make space in the veg cab. its gonna be tight in a few weeks
 
cheers man yeah im pretty pleased so far the hermie planthasnt even sprouted any nuts after i castrated it the first time, and they're starting to fill out a bit 4 weeks to go!!!!

oh and the pidgeon is mos def fubar... thing is it had been dead on the garage roof for at least 2 weeks before the crow got at it, it must have been pretty hungry is all i can think

The crow was probably just waiting for it to ripen up a bit. :lol:

MJ always likes to hermie at some stage during flower, it's a weed and will want to reproduce.
Many times, once castrated, that's all the balls you'll see.
Hoping it is this way for you mate. :peace:

Yes they do. Perkiness is the first good sign ;-)

That heated prop you have there mate is gonna be a very important aspect to your growing. Good purchase ;-)
Warmth and humidity are key to promoting root growth. Don't make it too moist around their stems, make 'em work for it.
Once you 'dial in' your cloning techniques and their environment, there'll be no stopping you.
You'll get a lot of roots :hump:
