My 2nd Grow Journal. LST, SOG, SCROG, Super Crop.

My thoughts exactly, dude!!! I believe that even for a lower cola, plenty of seeds will be produced. It only takes one good female seed and I'll be good to go. My plan will be to germinate about 10 seeds and hope to get 4 or 5 females from the cross. I want to make sure that I have enough to pick from... I want to make sure that the plant I choose to be the mother has the best characteristics of both plants that she comes from.

Go for the lower buds, not your prime colas! They'll still produce seed no problem and your prime buds will remain untainted.

Excellent call! I have some masterxjack pollen I pulled a few weeks back that I'm going to cross with some XXX OG but I've never done it before. Keep us posted Snut! It only takes one bean to change the scene!

To reply to your earlier post, Ya man people do post some hella bad ass info. Once someone told me the craziest idea to keep my reservoir cool, Fuckin ridiculous, same person told me to add a bunch of fuckin clorox bleach to my reservoir.

But ya man from a lower branch you should def get enough seeds, i pollinated a lower branch on both my ladys and i can count a good 7-8 seeds on the mk ultra and a good 10 on the hashplant haze so you should def get enough seeds, Also you know what would be cool man, if you cross that rhino with the amsterdam flame and also if you just pollinate the amsterdam flame with itself that way you have 3 dif strains you are growing, Amsterdam flame, White Rhino, Then som White Flame or some rhino flame or whatever you want to call it, I mean over time you could really stabelize it and create your own new dank strain bro!

Hello all,

just a few quick pics and a few quick words.

The bagseed plants are chugging right along. growing like wild fire. they have fucking HUGE fan leaves. big and fat!!! I love them!

The 5 plant SOG grow is beautiful. I love looking at my girls and just seeing them so dark green, luscious, happy, and beautiful!

The 4 maybe 5 SOG reservoir is doing well. 4 of the 5 plants are making great come backs and are growing very nicely. I still haven't given up on the tiny plant in the middle.

I hope everyone has a great weekend!

I will respond to the 2 earlier posts later today or tomorrow morning. I want to do some reading before I talk more about crossing strains to create a new one. It's not quite as easy as pollinating one plant with another... Well, it is and it isn't. We'll talk more about that later.

PS Edit: Notice in the last picture the light on the left. that friggin thing has got to be 25 to 30 years old. Some guy on craigslist wanted $80 for it. I went and checked it out and laughed at him. I told him it was ancient and good luck selling it. He mentioned that maybe he should just throw it away. I offered him 5 bucks for it, which he was happy to get. heheheh. Anyways, I took it home, hooked it up, put in a new metal halide bulb, and whatta ya know, it actually worked. So far, it has turned out to be a damn fine light. Anyways, I was just thinking about how cheap all the equipment is in that picture, and smiling to myself about it. Cheap ass equipment turning out bad ass weed! Gotta love it!!!

Hey all...

Well, as you y'all know I was hoping for at least one of the 2 bagseed plants to be female. Well, one of them is FOR SURE!!! Happy days! The one on the right in the picture is showing all kinds of pre-sex female hairs. I'm so stoked!!! To be honest, I hope the other is female as well, but at the same time I'm hoping it is male. I really would like to cross it with my white rhino strain... We'll see.

Just wanted to update everyone and share my happiness!!!

-S

lucky you! my pride and glory baby turned out to be a male=[ oh well, if it is a male, make sure to get some pure "big bud" seeds to keep that strand, could come in handy later for crossing with some sweet sativa..
check my thread if you want I finally posted an update =D

Damn fine lookin ladies! And congrats on the new addition to the harem!

Hello all,

Well let's start out with this: I have a plant that is about 1 week from coming out of the flower room. We can also consider this a control plant since it is a single plant in a reservoir, veg'd for 5 weeks. it looks like it's going to yield very well. I'll let you all know.

The first pic below is of my female bag seed plant. If you look close you'll see that I tied down the 2 main growing colas. She wasn't filling out as nicely as I'd like, so I tied them down. This is the 2nd LST I've done to her. When she was younger I tied down the single main growing shoot. Now I've tied down 2 of the main growing shoots. She should fill out nicely now.

2nd picture is of both bag seed plants together. I believe the one on the left is going to be a male (not showing any sex signs yet). That's ok. If so, I will cross him with my white rhino.

the 3rd picture is of my SOG grows. The reservoir on the left has FIVE PLANTS in it. the one on the right also has 5 plants in it. Those ones are just starting to mature. I want to get the reservoir on the left in to my flower room NOW!! But I don't have a light available at the moment. One more week, and those plants will be moving in!!!

Things are looking really friggin good in my veg room. The flower room plants are looking fuckin awesome as well. I'll take some pics of them tonight. I truly hope that everyone of you out there are having as good as if not better results than I am!

Damn, growing is so friggin fun!!! I LOVE IT!!!

Hey all,

Well, the plants are coming along well. One problem I'm having right now is that my SOG grow is now veg'ing longer than I wanted it too. The plants are getting bigger than I wanted for comparison's sake. I don't have a light I can put it under in the flower room at the moment. I do have one plant ready to come out in about 1 week. I can't wait to get her harvested and out of there so that I can move the 5 plant SOG grow in.

The super cropped plant is showing excellent flowers. She's 3 weeks in to flowering and looking great. The cola stems are huge and fat and it looks like they will support nice sized buds.

The LST plant is doing well also. Not much to report there.

The 2 new bag seed plants are kicking major ass. I've never seen bigger fan leaves with fatter stems. Fuckin amazing. I'll take some pics of the stems soon. Quite amazing, really!!!

I added some pics. One of them shows one of my reservoir with a pump in it being drained with a new batch of nutes sitting next to it waiting to be pumped in once the old nutes are emptied out. Many people have asked me about this so I thought I'd place a pic here.

Also, I put in a pic of the main stock of one of my plants. it's 2 inches across. Pretty good size, in my opinion...

Enjoy. I hope everyone else's grows are going well too!!!

dam man, that thing is a tree, its huge, LoL. great job tho.

I dream of a day where I can fill a room with 6 thousand watt vert bulbs and fill the floor with DWC tubs. Nothing seems to grow the BUSHES like DWC! 2" that's insane, keep doin ya thang!

Thanks for the pics. They're looking great!

Hey all,

I just wanted to talk about spotting nutrient deficiencies in our grows.

I went in to the veg room tonight and noticed that my 5 plant SOG grow was showing signs of nutrient deficiency, and most specifically Nitrogen deficient.

I attached pics of the plants and one leaf. As you can see in the pics, the leaves form brown spots or areas, and can even turn a little yellow. The yellowing might make you think that the lights are too close and the plant is too hot, but generally that probably is not the case. It's just wanting Nitrogen to stay a healthy green.

I posted these pics as a quick reference point for any of you who may see the same thing in your grows every now and then. If you see this, it's time for a nute change.

The last time I changed the nutes on these plants was on the 10th of this month (so, 20 days). I violated my own rule of not going more than 2 weeks without changing the nutes. I know better, but figured they were young enough they could go a little longer without a nute bath.. WRONG! heheh.

Anyways, what's cool is this: As long as we pay close attention to our plants, and to what we are doing, it is generally not too hard to figure out any problem that comes up with a little reasonable deduction. Since I haven't changed nutes in 20 days, it's pretty easy for me to figure out why plant is showing problems....

Another lesson learned....

PS
Notice the pic of the leaf. That's the best example I could have posted!!

cal/mag or P?

I'm not sure what you're asking me here, bro...

He's asking which deficiency you think you have. phosphorus or calcium/magnesium.

Ah, ok... Well, neither actually. I think it was a nitrogen deficiency. I thought that's what I wrote in the original post.. I'll have to re-read it after I type this...

now that I think about it some more, it could have also been a bit Phos deficient as well... Hence the brown spots... The important point I was trying to make is that as long as we pay attention to our plants, and what we are doing, they will always let us know when they need something, and depending on what we've been doing we should be able to figure out what that need is. I hope that makes sense, hahahah...

Hey y'all.

I finally harvested one of my plants in the flower room. looks like it will produce around 5 oz's of good dry kind. anyways, as soon as I finished harvesting that plant, I immediately moved the 5 plant SOG grow in to the flower room. There is a picture below of what they are looking like in the flower room.



I'm VERY stoked!!!!
