not to mention all that $$$ spent on her nutrients. fuckin spoiled whore...

wow 3 days and no posts here. must be some kind of record lol. anywho little update here... NL - Day 79 (day 29 flower) Cali Indica - Day 69 (day 29 flower) Skywalker - Day 65 (day 22 flower) Purple Wreck - Day 58 (day 18 flower) the G13 Haze is still in there too its just small as fuck idk what the hells wrong with it... im watering them all now with 3/4 strength big bloom/tiger bloom/beastie bloomz and i think i should start using this molasses soon right? i forget how much it is i think i read a tblspoon per gallon once a week or something? anyways a few pics also, flowers finally starting to show up on all now. the first pic is all of them, 2 is cali indica, 3 is purple wreck and 4 and 5 are the skywalker...

how many watts for each plant do u have?

umm 50? just using 400w hps...

buds comin

looking good my friend.... buds are starting to form and fatten up. I love this process... Looking forward to the next weeks!!!!

and of course i'm looking forward to mine growing up fast, so i can switch them to 12/12.

Skywalker looks kick ass! must be using the force!

lol hayduke. yeah they must be i cant wait for the next few weeks. thinkin ima do a few more of the skywalker for this second crop too. puttin them in the propagator right now actually haha. i forgot about my bb x nl so i think im do 2 of those, 2 skywalker, 2 reg bb and the 3 strawberry blue.

anyone with any input on when and how much of this molasses i should start using??

Sounds like you are opening an I-Hop, or maybe I-Pot...rooty tooty, fresh and stoney.

I would say 1T per gal maybe once a week when you use water only. If you mix it with anything that has soil beasties in it use promptly as the bacteria/fungi start to eat the sugar and acidify your nute solution! I am curious as to whether this happens in the soil also, or why it does not. Probably has to due with the beasties growth phase in solution. But IDK.

LOL i always get the rooty tooty... anyways, yeah so i was right with 1TBL per gal once a week? i heard some people use it more but yeah i dont wanna fuck around with any fungi bullshit. so i should use it on a day im not feeding with other nutes right? and if i mix it up and keep the air pump in there it wont go bad right?

while on my first grow, i was using molasses the last 4-5 weeks of flowering. I used 1tbl per gal and i had no problems at all. Sometimes i was giving Bio-Grow and molasses at the same time, and still i did not face any troubles.

oh cool, good to know mark. just dont wanna go messin anything up at this point ya know haha. a few of these should be about done in 3-4 weeks so i guess i should start with the molasses tomorrow!

of course you don't wanna mess anything up.... i'd give em molasses tomorrow, less than 1tblsp, see how it goes, and the next time i'd give em some more.

by the way, right now i'm smoking a really nice , and I realized my stash is almost over!!!!! and my current plants are still in veg!!!!!! I gotta hurry....

haha damn wait didnt you just harvest that huge plant a few weeks ago?? and its gone already?! lol maybe it wasnt that much i forget wasnt it like 100grams or something tho?

Im deff trying to harvest something like yall......PROPZ.

hahaha i wish it was 100gr, but it yielded around 40grams!!! and since it was my first harvest, i gave some to my brother and friends, kept the rest and now it's almost done!!
And my new plants are not all the same age, so i got to wait for the young ones to get a bit bigger before switching to 12/12. Especially since the jack herer is still just a baby...

oh damn maybe i was thinking of someone else lol. or thought you had more than one plant or something who knows... 40g from one plant tho not bad, hope i cant get that much haha man 320g wouldnt that be nice...

320g from one plant?? damn dk your shootin the moon now eh?? lol. I gotta say that your stuff is lookin fuckin SICK dude. N stop worryin about your NL not flowering. Itll get there man, just wait n watch bro. my last grow, Corky didnt even show her pussy til like 3 weeks into flowering man, i ended up waitin almost 3 months before she was even close to ready to be choppped, n STILL i ended up cuttin her down early, lol - that was the most frustrating grow ever dude. Your NL is gonna blow up over night one night man, n youll fuckin cream your pants when you wake up one morning n shes standin there, all purdy showin off her naughty parts... Its Northern Lights man, a legend in its own right. Shes gonna get funky on you bro, just hang in there n shell thank u for it

N when you were talkin about waiting to flower until the plants show preflowers during veg, --how long do you usually have to wait for that shit to happen?? lol, i mean, i havent had it happen yet, n im assuming you gotta veg for like 2 months before they show pistils during veg phase dude. Least this is just my assumption -- right now every single indie im growin right now is bigger than my last batch was when i flowered it. Hell, theyre bigger than my last grow was at the end of flowering right now too, lol.

N in what room are you startin your new seeds in?? seems like you got alot of shit goin on now man, i cant wait to take a look at everything -- your in the works of buildin yourself a nice lil perpetual grow eh ? I guess my next question would be though -- why wouldnt you clone rather than start from seed again? is it because theyre different strains or what?

+rep bro(if it lets me), ambition leads to success

lol no man not 320 from one plant youre nuts. 40g from one plant x 8 plants = 320 lol. not that im expecting that or anything id be more than happy with an oz off each...

yeah and with the preflowers it just depends man, the strain and shit obviously helps determine when they will show but you can never really be sure i dont think. my NL showed after like 6 weeks veg, and the skywalker were shooting pistols everywhere after like 5 weeks but those were fem seeds obv so no sex to be determined...

im startin up the new seeds in the homebox. that will now become my veg tent and the other half of my closet used for flowering. in theory id like to be able to veg 8 weeks/flower 8 weeks so then be able to harvest 8 plants or so every 8 weeks... i havent really even thought about cloning and shit yet haha. i have so many seeds now and will probably just grow out all the strains first, i got like 15 different ones lol. plus i heard its better starting from seed anyway, even with the extra time you can get much healthier plants/bigger yield obv etc...
