1st "real" grow.. Advise from experienced ppl appreciated

My personal favorite

White widow

Cotton candy clone

Oh and I forgot to mention that I did start my outdoor garden. No weed tho, just tomatoes & strawberries for now. Truth be told, I'm only doing this because I really want to plant mj everywhere & can't. My backyard is too open and my neighbors on each side can easily see into my yard. And we can't leave out the fact that I do live in the hood. I wouldn't even put it past one of my own boys to come and try and take my shit if they see it flowering , and if they not one of my boys... Wel, then I pretty much know they'll take my sh*t. And if I was to get noticed by any neighbors, it might make people interested in what's going on inside the house. So only if I had an autoflower would I consider an autdoir grow and only 1 plant. But still... I prob won't do it, just keep my sh*t indoors to b on the safe side.

And btw... F*ck world of seeds!!!! I'm still mad about my Afghan kush.

Damn you hold grudges, huh?

Yeah Wheels has been there for some good advice, so has BillCollector.

Bombasticsion.. its prob my phone , cuz I have to use the riu app. But I can't see ur pics for sh*t. I tried to cluck in , but nothing.

Bagseed are just seeds that you find in your buds or whatever. You usually don't know what strain or if they are even any good. It's always a gamble with bagseed.

Lolz I'm glad u gave that description because I was thinkin of someone buying a big ass bag of stress seeds to grow when someone would say bagseed, Ima tard.

BTW nice pix Sims, R u doin LST with that white widow bush u showed there?

Nah, I did lst a little during veg but now I'm just letting her do her thing.. ill admit its partly because I'm getting a little lazy but mostly because of my set up.. its mad ghetto I have them balanced on a milk crate which is sitting on top of a stool... I'm doing that just to keep my white widow & green love potion about even with my cotton candy which has to easily be atleast 3 1/2 feet taller. I know I need something better than a milk crate lol but its all I got right now, until I get some $ after a harvest or two ill have to deal with a slightly ghetto grow room... I know my sh*t ain't perfect. But atleast I'm not one of those newbies who come in saying I got a 60 watt CFL and some soil from the 99 cent store and I wanna grow a lb of bud. And I will advance my set up but it might take me a lil... I know I got off track but the the point I'm trying to make is it would simply b to hard to lst right now, I'm having a hard enough time keeping my plants on the crate spaced enough to get adequate light without falling off of the crate at the same time.

Take a look to see what I'm talking about

Keep at it bro. You will have a proper setup soon enough.

I would say there is a slight difference in your plant canopy.

That's why I am planning on keeping my canopy very similar in height. I may end up growing multiple strains at once but that will be after I know how that strain stretches.

Yea. I would def love to do a grow with 1 strain.. since my next grow is a bagseed run, that's kinda out the window , but sometime soon. And I realized that some plants just grow way bigger than others, I think I could have gerninated my cotton candy 3 weeks after the white widow and green love potion and it would have still been the tallest plant. Sometimes its just in the genetics. And what I learned from this grow is .... The genetics from a sativa are crazy!!! I mean, I knew these plants grow tall but u still underestimated it. Didn't think it would get this big , this fast ... Kinda too hard to control, I don't think I will grow sativas if I have the choice from now on. This sativa is about 6 inches from the ceiling... It could have easily got too big for my set up. From now on all sativas I grow will get topped, but if I have a choice ill grow indica dominant plants.

So, when I log into riu I see a notification. It says "2 likes recieved". Now, I'm not really sure what this means or how to respond to it. Are people liking a post I made? Me? My thread? Or what?? And when I click into the notification it doesn't tell me who liked me , nor does it give me a way to respond back to whoever liked me. It's prob bcuz I'm using a and android app (I miss my iPhone). So don't take it as me being disrespectful or ignoring u. I just don't know how to respond.but thanks for the like.

And btw this android app is horrible!!!! Now I cant even see the pics that I'm attatching. Can you all see the pic?? And for the iPhone most of the apps were free, I actually paid for this one!! Now that I think about it, this is probably the first app I've ever paid for ( and this is prob like my 7th or 8th smart phone) just so I wouldn't loose contact with my riu crew. And the app sucks!! Please come up for an upgrade. If anyone from the riu management is reading this , please step ur game up... But yea, please let me know if you can see the pics . If u can't ill try and post them another way.

Alright recently I've been thinking of ways to increase my yield aswell as keeping up some sort of perpetual harvest.. originally my plan was to have clones of my current plants as well as clones from my friends plants .. well I mentioned that my friend killed most of his seeds that he bought from the seed bank (don't ask me how, he was doing so many different things its hard to say where he went wrong) but the clones that I gave him from my plants are still all alive (just really started showing any kind of growth tho. The weather finally got up into the 70s this week). But previous to all the seedbank stuff he had been vegging bagseed plants for a while (they look really healthy btw) but I was thinking of throwing them in my flower room after my current grow, but then I thought y not just throw them in now?? That way they would b a couple of weeks behind my current plants and then I would have a perpetual harvest.. 1 problem tho , idk if they're male or female yet. But I see ppl on YouTube do this all the time. Throw a nee plant in the flower room to determine sex. So I figure I can prob do this as long as I go in and inspect the plants thouroughly daily. What do yall think ? Should I do it ? Or is this a recipe for disaster?? Lemme know something asap, cuz I'm really thinking hard about this & might tell my friend to give me his plants when I see him in a few hours.

Please... Any feedback on this tonight would be greatly appreciated, throwing unknown plants in the grow room good or bad idea? and 1 more thing I 4got to mention, his plants have been vegged outdoors, so there is a risk of bringing in bugs aswell. Just a thought, but please let me know if it is an idea worth attempting , because I'm getting a little restless ( maybe its just boredom or greed) but either way, watever it is. I feel like I might go for it tonight. So before I possibly make a horrible decision and ruin my grow just let me know what yall think ??

Yo Sims, would you be taking his vegging bagseed plants to your flower room? Or the clones you gave him previous?? Just a thought, if he still has those clones why not grab one and cut clones off her, then keep her in veg as a mother. Then you will have that strain for a while and wont have to bagseed the next grow! Just a thought I had since you said you doin bagseed this round......Or is the strain something you dont wanna grow anymore??

If I could take cuttings from the clones I gave him I would, but the clones have not developed any undergrowth yet. So there's nothing to clone . The clones are no more than 6 inches . The weather has been in the 50s until this week so the clones weren't really growing , just hanging on for life I guess . Maybe ill be able to clone them in another 3 weeks I would estimate ... But his bagseed plants are lush and healthy ready to be cloned or flowered . So thats y I'm asking should I flower them

So to answer ur question clearly. Yea. I want to take his vegging bagseed and put it in my flower room
