FUCK, lol, i shoulda fuckin known that shit man. good lookin out on that, ill have to pick up on that sometime soon.

Does anybody here know who that one dude is 7th1der??
Hes fuckin stalking me (or trying to, i should say, lol)!!
Member the other day when i rickrolled like 50 people?? This guy is the only guy who fuckin got offended. He then proceeded to read every post ive ever written, and put in his sig every thread that i put that rickroll link, and then he put a quote in there that i wrote when TodayIsaGreenday got his apartment robbed, i offered to sell him a gun if he needed to protect his fuckin house, like any good friend would if some shit like that went down. Anyways, the dude is fuckin annoying as shit - hes even tryin to say he traced my IP address, and he knows where i live, which is impossible unless he knows how to bypass a proxy server, which i highly doubt. but if something like that WERE possible, its kinda fucked up that somebody like that is even ALLOWED in here, the whole point being that RIU is supposed to be an anonymous place for growers to kick it. So yeah, fuck this dude, i think im gonna see if i cant go ahead n get him banned from rollitup. Nobody should feel like they cant come here because of people going crazy, turning stalker, and trying to trace IP addresses.

thats my whole point man. The dude is a fuckin whackjob. im not the type to go runnin around blastin anybody, unless theres a good reason for it. n even then i dont like to fuckin go around talkin shit, cuz then it brings me down to his fuckin level man, its fuckin rediculous. i already made the appropriate inquiry with the appropriate person, so hopefully theyll take care of the asshole, if not, then fuckim. Im sure hell realize that hes a douchebag after enough people have told him that hes a douchebag, and itll be over with. but shit like that definitely is enough to fuckin make my ass double check anything that could connect me back to my grow if anybody were paying attention, lol. fuckin cocksuckers man, theres one in every fuckin group, i swear to god.

bah fuck it, aint no big deal man. Fuckin way stupider than it sounds, n it even sounds fuckin retarded, lol. So no worries, just write the fucker off as a moron n go about my day man. I aint one for stupid bullshit, n im surprised i even let the douche get under my skin in the 1st place.


ANYWAYS, lol

Im havin troubles with my fuckin White Widows man. Theyre not growin!! I guess it could be because i started them off in the 3 gallon growbags, and its taking longer for the roots to set themselves up the right way and start growin out, but then again, it could be somethin else. ive never had a problem like this before, so im kinda wierded out. Im at my deadline today for throwing them into flower, and i dont know what the fuck to do now because theyre not anywhere near where they should be for 3 weeks (2 3/4 weeks, lol). I dont get it, but i AM throwin them into flower, n ill just hope that the HPS makes all the difference and they start stretching out. Well see man, i fuckin hopeso.

I might also do this - if they start stretching out, i might then put them back under the flouros, so they can revert back to veg for a few days, n then reflower them - just so theres more plant material for buds to form onto. I dont know man, i just want them shits to grow the fuck up, lol. The Red Diesel is slow going too man - its gotta be the god damn flouros. I dont get it. I mean, its HOT AS FUCK in that growbox up top. I need to figure out how to vent it out a little better or somethin - i just think maybe that mixed in with the fact that theyre flouros might be the reason for all the slow or stunted growth. Either way, nothing will be going through a full growth cycle under those, ill be using my HPS to flower the RD too. i just hope i get enough height on the motherfucker so that shit works in my favor. Well see man...

Now, just a quick pictureless update on the rest of the indy hybrids - which is what they are man. I fuckin realized that shit when TC commented on how much they look like sativas - i looked up each strain im growin again, and only one strain is indica dom, n the rest are mostly sativa (i think, i fuckin forgot already, lol) - Which ALSO explains why the motherfuckers WONT STOP GROWING GOD DAMNIT!!! its one of those problems that doesnt suck to have, but its a problem nontheless, lol. im seriously just about outta room, lol. I got like 10 inches left to move my light up, and i didnt wanna do that shit til like 3 weeks before harvest. The plants are all 5 inches away from the light. Theyve all grown to be 30 - 36" tall not including the growbags man. Thats more than TRIPLE the size of the plants when they went into flower fuckin 2 1/2 weeks ago man. W-O-W.

I mean, they dont get any bigger than triple the size of what they were in veg, right?? i think im usin way too much good shit to improve growth man, lol. Im usin Co2, im usin Purple Maxx, usin Super Plant Tonic, plus all my other regular nutes, and nothin is burnin at all. SO the plants have to be just drinkin it all in, n fuckin growin the fuck out. They only really tend to stretch real bad the day before i water them though. Maybe if i stop the plants from going dry for a couple weeks i can avoid any more serious vertical growth man. Im just throwin that one out there - if someone could give an opinion on wether or notthat shit would even work, id appreciate it. I tried supercropping, but the fuckin plants seemed to enjoy that shit, like "oh, your tryin to stop us from growin?? thats so cute k1, but i dont think that we really feel like doin what you want us to do right now motherfucker ;) " little sadistic temptresses, LOL. If this shit goes any farther, im gonna have to break out the twine, but even with that i dont know how id do it man, theyre all so fuckin tall i dont know which way i could tie them up successfully, plus if i DID tie them up, i dont know if there would be any typa effective light exposure for my Widows, which are still only like 6 inches tall right now. Fuckin hell man, lol.


Anyways, ill figure somethin out man, n ill snap off some pics for you guys tomorrow or the next day -- probably tomorrow. The flowers are the size of big ass fuckin marbles right now,n they just keep on gettin bigger every day. I can finally see the nug structure, and i have an idea of how big each top nug is gonna end up, that is, if the calyxes swell up like i want them to, and they connect from node to node. Well seehow it works out, n ill show u what im talkin about when i snap pics. Ill probably end up doin it tommorrow, just cuz theyre due for some fresh air, and i havent taken them all out of the tent in a couple days. So when i get a couple minutes to just take all of them out, ill snap a group pic out of the tent, and then some macros, just for youz.

thanks for readin,

So you tied them up a bit huh, sounds good. Did you notice any reduction in the vertical growth after the super cropping. You said you didn't bend them when you super cropped them though didn't you, that prolly makes a differance. They sure are getting beastly though huh.

Also King you might have posted this before, but I'm starting to think about nutes for mine, and I was wondering what your total nute regiman has been, your girls seem to really like it. You've got lime in your soil too right?

Sorry Bhudda, i cant help myself man, lol.

Nope, not tying them down yet. im waiting to see if things taper off naturally before i do anything to fuck with the natural order of things.
N nope, i didnt bend the tops down at all when i pinched the branches. i just figured that shit didnt matter too much cuz i was basically snapping the stems already, and the plants had to focus on repair reguardless, so it wouldnt matter. I guess that stupidity on my part, lol.

As far as nutrients go, my regimen isnt too involved, but i follow it to the t pretty much.

Soil is just FF OC soil, with like 3 handfuls of perlite, and 1tbsp of Dolemite lime per gallon of soil. Basically comes out to one big handful of lime. that keeps my ph balanced, and ive only had to check it twice since i started this grow. its been right on themoney both times, and i probably wont check it again until right before flush.

Now, the nutes -- i waited until the beginning of the 3rd week of veg to give my first dose of nutes. until that point i used nothin but distilled water. Once i got to the nutes, i used regular tap water.
I started out with 1/2 strength FF grow big, and big bloom. By the 4th week i started up full strength GB n BB, with about 1 tsp mollasses per gal of water. i feed once every 4 days, one just a watering, one with nutes, alternating every time.

Last week of veg i got some Blue Mountain Organics Super plant Tonic, and i started to use that with my Fox farm, just adding a teaspoon per gallon to everything. Nothin burned, so i figured they must like it. turns out they did.

1st week of flowering, i did the same thing - Full Strength FF grow big, Big Bloom, SPT, n mollasses. After that, 4 days later when i was supposed to do water only, i did 1/2 strength of Tiger Bloom with nothing else.

1st nute feeding for flower - 1/2 strength Big Bloom, Tiger Bloom, SPt, n Mollasses, and added cottonseed meal for a small last dose of nitro before it was too late to do anything about it, and i ended up with yellow leaves 5 weeks in. Just sprinkled a fat ass handful of the shit onto the top soil, and watered.

then i ordered my Pmaxx n Gravity. Week 2 of flowering i did just Water, and then 4 days later i did my regular flower regimen at full strength, taking out the SPT. Next Water only feeding, i added 1/2 tsp of Pmaxx to each gallon of water, and set the Maxxed gallons aside. I then took a Gallon of Distilled Water, and I did a MINI flush on each plant, just dumping a gallon of pure water through each plant, and then dosing them up with a gallon for each plant with the 1/2 tsp of Pmaxx in the water. they seemed to respond pretty well cuz i got about 4 inches of growth spurt the next morning, lol.

Next nute feeding, i cut my nutes back again by 1/2. The bottle of Pmaxx basically says that if your using this all the way through flowering, cut nutrients back by 1/3 so you dont burn your plants - because the Purple Maxx opens up the root system, and makes the roots more able to suck up every last bit of nutrient left in the soil that they can get theyre hands on. So just to be safe i cut back by 1/2 on everything. So 1/2 strength Big Bloom, Tiger Bloom, Mollasses, and no SPT. With 1/2 tsp of Pmaxx added in.

The last watering i did with nutes (this past watering), i bumped up the nutrient strength, to where im at 3/4 strength, and im stayin right there for the duration. I dont wanna push shit too far man, lol.

N 3 weeks before the chop, im supposed to add in 1 tbsp of Gravity to a Water only feeding, and do everything normally for the rest of the week. The next week, i do my Final Flush, and then when it needs watered again, add in one more tbsp of Gravity, and then feed just straight water from then on out. i need to read the Pmaxx bottle again to find out if im supposed to use that shit right up until the chop though, i cant remember.

It helps to write all this shit down when you feed, so you always remember when your last feeding was, what you fed them, how much you fed them, ect, ect. This way you can always make adjustments going off of what you last did to your plants, should something go wrong. i live by the Motto "You can ALWAYS add to the mix, but you can NEVER take away from it", which is actually a Chef's creedo, but it applies to growers who use nutrients just the same, lol.

hope that helped bro, n yes, its absolutely worth it to order your nutes online, as opposed to settling for Walmart nutes or Home depot nutes. Home depot has worm poop, and a couple other things that you could probably get away with making a decent compost tea with, but i wouldnt do that shit unless its been tried and true by somebody else first, lol. Go with the mail order nutes if you can, if not, then you know what to do man ;)

dear god, i have hell of a long way to go. i got to move into the mountains so i can set some real shit up. good luck

loll dude you aint gotta do all that man. im in an apartment complex right now, with a simple growtent in a closet. The only obstacle was getting up the cash to buy the equipment, and the cash to buy the seeds. Other than that man, it was following instructions by the book on how to grow pot correctly, n the rest took care of itself. once you get the hang of things, then you can play around with your plants, n try different shit out, and thats when the real fun starts, because you take what youve learned, and you put your own personal spin on things. thats why every single grow journal here is so interesting, cuz each and every single one is different from one another. i dont see ANY two grows in these forums that are alike man. Its a beautiful thing.

You dont gotta be all the way out in the boondocks to produce an lb of some dank ass bud. all you need to do is pick up a couple growing books, and have access to this place, and your golden man. Its all a matter of covering up your grow so nobody would ever know that its happening right underneath their noses. Odor control, noise control, lightproofing, and your done. Those three things are the only things that you really need to worry about, and if taken care of, you could grow in your landlords bedroom if you wanted to, n he wouldnt know about it, lol.

If you ever need anything along the way while your trying to get yourself off the ground bro, just message me. Any advice i can give or anything along those lines, is pretty much an open book to anyone thats asking. im not even close to a pro yet, but im learning as i go, just like everyone else. Hit me up if theres anything i can do for ya man :D

Thanks King, I knew your nute regimen was simple, so I was just curious. So basically grow big, and big bloom through veg, then big bloom, and tiger bloom through flower, with the pmax, and gravity, ok. I may try the same stuff, I like the results you've had. I don't know if I'm gonna spring for the pmax, and gravity, but I may it depends on how the shrooms turn out! I am gonna run a silica addative, supposed to increase plant structure. Does it say on the pmax to only use during flower, or can you start it earlier? If it increases nute uptake by the roots, it seems like it mightnot be bad to start during veg.

Broozer, what kind of lights do you have, you want to keep your growing area at a good temp(ideally between 75-80), and a fan is also benefcial for making your plants stronger, having a fan blowing on them will strengthen the stems of them.

I have the aerogarden lights, which im going to use in the begining, and ill most likely switch to better lighting when they get bigger.

Ah an aerogarden, those are the counter top systems right? I don't think those lights put off much heat. You prolly don't need a fan for them per say. You might want to use a small fan to blow on the plants to make them stronger. Are you planning on budding them in the aerogarden? If so, I would prolly bud them pretty early, only give them a week or 2 veg, then bud them. A guy on here named gypsy has done some cool stuff with aerogardens, and other micro growing systems. He grew buds with roots, and it was pretty cool. I havn't seen him around for a couple weeks atleast, but if you could get ahold of him on here, he might have some good insite.
