I took a look at the clones today, they are about five inches tall.
Three Kush are doing well and five Train Wreck.





With another four or five inches in height left down here I am going to top the TW and move the light up a notch at a time.









That should give me another week or so and that would work. I want to flower at eight inches. I think.

Cool Man,

I am still trying to find out what would work best in this setup and I was thinking lolipoping some autos.
Like 10 or so and going SOG. I was thinking AK.
AK will kick my ass though and I enjoy smoking as much as getting stoned.

I have had this widow hanging for about 5 days, I am off to wallmart for some mason jars. I will snap a couple pics when I get back.

You would be better off just doing a sog with regular ak not auto. Auto will require you to have the lights on longer per day and it will mean you'll have to buy a bunch of auto ak seeds because you can't clone an autoflower. I'm sure you knew that already though

Good point Tom,

Yea I herd about the cloning but I didn't think about the time the light was on. 20 vs 12 is almost twice the electricity. Plus I would have to buy seeds every grow. I think you are right, Back to the drawing board.

Thanks for the input.

I found a case of one quart mason jars with wide mouth at OSH for $12.99 they only had small ones at wall mart. Heres a couple shots of the Widow we had outside this year. Unfortunately we had to chop early and there is not as much but still, there is a few Oz's here.















.

I wasn't ready for it so I had made a make shift dryer. I had an old gas BBQ
that I pulled off the kettle and the wood slats that made a shelf, bent the
handles straight up, removed the wheels and turned it upside down. Bent some
cardboard for one side and the top then put it in a corner and used some screen
for the door. It just rolls up.






So if you got an old BBQ laying around you can make a drying rack out of it.

Is that the outdoor plants? Which ones did you chop?

Yea, My bud was getting paranoid, he thinks the neighbors gardener saw the tips of the Silver Haze. That still has a few weeks to go. The stinky widow was just that, stinky. So as a precaution he pulled the widow a little early and brought it over a few days back.

I have heard of the stinky widow before but I can't think where. Was that the strain used in the nutrient challenge?

Yea, I got the beans from Earl. What we grew were clones from them.
The stuff is better then Green Hose seeds WW and lives up to its name.
Real Stinky and it even stays fresh longer.

There are no more beans to be had but Earl said he has 10 and was going to breed what he has left and make some more seeds but that wont be for a while.

Yeah I gotcha, GHS usually puts out some top notch stuff so that stinky widow is probably insane. You're a lucky man to have been gifted those. So are you going to tie down the SH at all so that the nosey neighbors won't cause any problems?

Nice dryer lol. And yes auto light are on longer but. In stead of 65-75 days of growing it 45 days. Grow time is all most cut in half. Either way you pay the same. with less work and nutes. This one i did, i did in ff soil, and gave no nutes what so ever, and use rain water to feed with no ph balance adjustments either, just to see how it would grow.. O and grew it out side on the poarch. didnt even use the lights on this one. I could see for those who have hieght problem in there growing room this could be a solution but either way . im got 35 beans for nexts grow. talk at ya bro

Yea well we thought about it, We kinda think if he did see them they would be gone by now. Anyway we can't reach them, lol

We thought about tossing a cargo net over the whole thing but the buds are Sativa dominate and wispy at this point. we would probably break a few. I think we are just going to ride it out the way they are. Thats one of the reasons we cut the widow, just to make sure we got something.

Next year the net will be lower for sure.

Like the dryer eh?

Ha. Me to. Yea It works pretty good.

So 45 days huh?
With 8 weeks flower and a couple to finish not counting the veg time would be like 70 days for me now. I gotta figure this out.

10-3-09

Temps 79 res 70°
PPM 170
Ph 5.6

They drank about 1.5 gallons but the ppm didnt go up hardly at all. I added back the fresh and PPM at 150 again PH to 5.8

I am liking that clearex. It usually takes 2 or three water changes and a few more days to get here. A lot of the leaves curled up and I am seeing yellow in the leaf so thats good. I pulled off a couple more handfulls of it again today, mostly lower stuff.
