If you do come up that way pm me and I can tell you which dispensaries to find most of these in clone form. (except my vortex and all-star OG. promised the guy who gave them to me I wouldn't give them out)
 
what to do today: go to hydro store, transplant clones into smart pots. hoe may garden of weeds and hand pollinate my corn plants. i was thinking of super cropping the sky walker since it has two big tops..or topping both tops.

Time for a update! Wanted them to look like a plant before i showed them again haha. Here is the G 13 it has white hairs coming out. Does that mean its maturing? Or does that mean its going into bud? I did not even give it a chance at veg nutes lol.



And here is the blue dream

Where are the white hairs coming from? If they are coming strait out of the tops, then it's flowering. If they are coming off the stems, that's just preflowers.

Technically it could be my first grow.:leaf: I grew once before with a 400 wt about,well a long time ago.:lol: We got back into it on a budget and a whim before I even started reading the forums. I knew nothing else but miracle grow,perlite and vercmuculite from the guy who showed me years ago. I don't know if it's the strains I have or what,but they wanted Nutes Right away with no burning issues. I feed them two gallons apiece twice a week(outside plants only) of MG some flora bloom and epsom salt,and superthrive every once in awhile. I know no better.:roll: :hump: I do know when I start to flower we will stop with the MG and use something better. I have a bottle of flora bloom but don't know if that's part of their A+B system ? :blsmoke: Next Grows if Money permits we will probaly make or buy some better soil. I still have 2 of the super large bags of MG though.;-)
fancy nutrients are over rated IMO. If you're not getting any deficiencies and you're happy with the final result then why bother switching?

Oh, and you don't need superthrive on a regular basis. I give it to clones and feed them once to my plants after a transplant, but that's it.
 
wow goped, that g13 looks way bigger! check out the sour grape. its pretty big too. only going to get bigger.
oh and my sunflower is already 9 feet tall! grew 3 feet in 2 weeks.already has 4 sun flower heads on top.

first pic is the 3 babies and my yellow kush..2nd is the 2 topped skywalker and 3rd is the sour grapes..pretty big already!

Girls look like they are dealing with the sun fairly .. they went from contant 78 degrees to 105 in a day lol
 
ya they are doing so well.they love the soil and how airy and warm it is. they get 12 hours of direct sunlight plus 6-8 more of light. does the purple kush and alien og bush out? and does the LB grow like a sativa? it looks like it.

Ya the Purple Kush and Alien OG turn to bushes.. Here is the Alien I just started flowering..



The LB is almost a pure sativa.. it grows really tall..
 
wow..that looks amazing. should grow like that outside. have you topped any ? and how soon do you think i can feed them flora duo. they are in virgin happy frog soil. should i feed right away or wait until that soil is used up.

Ya thats topped and lst'd.. but ya they get pretty bushy naturally .. the PK is prob a little bushier.. and the hindu is the bushiest of what Im growing right now.. Im gonna try and cross the hindu with some of my sativa's .. since it has decent potency.. Im hoping a cross with a High Potency sativa thats hard to grow indoors like my Laughing buddha or a haze might make something interesting .. we will see.. Too much time on my hands right now lol.
 
ya that is amazing you have all that to experiment with. breeding interests me, i've grown some healthy males before that were perfect to breed with. just didn't have any females to mate with.

If you've got the space, make a cheap ass mini greenhouse out of pvc pipe and transparent painters tarp or just get a mini greenhouse from home depot. As long as you've got it contained, you shouldn't have a problem with unwanted pollination. It doesn't take much space to get a really fucking big supply of seeds. Mine is like 4'x4' and I get all the seeds I can possibly use out of it.
 
ya i was planning on making one of those pvc hot boxes. a 4x4 to grow and make seeds. i want to grow seeds but they are too costly and when i do have some only a few sprout and some die. so if i had maybe 50 seeds then i could pull the slow growers that are stunted and pic the best most vigorous. i was reading a lot about breeding in some books i have.
