War,
putting a second grow tent on same terrace and then a tarp, shade for bright sun. They spend grooming/flush days outside, they get the eye and perhaps mist/washing. What do you think about LED vs. MH/HPS with the cost of power a consideration. I have 250W MH/HPS or could use 4 90W LED's. Thanks, I appreciate your help. . .
My out look on LEDs is they are great for veg. Not so much in flower. And yes you save a lot each mounth on you bills. But the upfront cost you could get a mh/hps and run it a year. Like I said erlyer. Cfl will work but your going to have fluffy buds. So price wise T5 will be better in the long run. More upfront but better smoke. Or go with a 250 or 400 hps and limit your plants but get the same green. CL has them all the time. So far it sounds like I'm one of the only one that says less plants more veg time better yield. So let the bashing begin.

Cut idea #1.jpg
Cut Idea#1
Cut Idea #2.jpgCut idea #2. . . I see three clones. Ideas? War I am a big proponent of one plant, 32 stalks and a long veg. my goal, one of them, is to have 6 mother plants vegging as long as possible and run grows from clones. . . This is why I have 15 strains. . . Setting up flower room and will check back in a couple. . . Peace Out

I would like to keep 6 mothers in veg. How long can I realistically keep them producing clones? Thanks. . . Can anyone ID this sprout that came up Skywalker's cont. . . Mystery Sprout.jpg

You can keep a mother for years along as you keep her in 18/6 and make sure she is healthy. I like to keep them for no more then 2 but most of the time it's only 1 year then I start a new one.

War,
If I am using a 24/0 veg, should I gradually get to 18? I understand it is opinion. I was told they start flowering first lights out. . . Pic of the FlowerRoom son. . . Three way tie, Skywalker/Blackberry/Chocolope. Perhaps breeding a Chocolope female to Blackberry Kush male? or Skywalkers Blackberry Chocolate? Dripping wet, off to finish the tent. . . 20/4. . . Happy 4/20 Veg

Time to transplant Miss Chocolope into a 3 gal pot. Never tried Chocolope but heard good stuff. Big Candy Og or Pure Candy is Trainwreck x Pure Master Kush. It is great for chronic pain thus the Kali-Kandy has much to live up to. . .

BTW, the 101 OG is supposed to be "the" original OG. SC Dam has clones in OC. The Tahoe, 101, and Sour Bubble are still in styro cups, LOL. They need good dirt, light and a couple of months.

Chocolope wins poll. . . It is going in with White Urkle, Skywalker and Kali Kandy for the first grow. I will start a "proper" grow journal and link to this thread. Will post when day 1 of 12/12 starts and we shall see what happens. . .

Did you get the og as a seed or clone? The true first og is clone only. Seeds came a few gens later.

as a clone from So Cal Dam. . .http://socaldamgenetics.com/
I was told it is "The OG", and read online that it is, they have it. Busy getting plants ready for flower. I like to supercrop, FIM, groom right before 12/12. This lets them stretch from new nodes. One of the toughest for me, a reflex, will to NOT mist plants. I think misting in Veg is a great way to replicate humid hot climates of origin. The two sativas, Chocolope C6, the winner of the April 2012 unofficial TSM's Rollitup Cup, and Kali Kandi, (Holy Grail x Chocolope C6) as they have 70-90 day flower periods. The White Urkle and Skywalker will represent Indica dom, a big favorite for chronic pain and stress. Grooming today. Appreciate your help everyone. . .

Another way to find out if it's real is what do the say OG stands for? True OG is for ocean grown. Came out of Santa Barbra

I will ask next time I order, they deliver. It might be a while. I will call on Monday and ask. . . I received the following for $10 donation per clone from them, 8 for $80. They all were in EXCELLENT shape, in soil and Styrofoam cups. . . Do you live in Ca? I spent 30 years in Financial Services. I had no idea of the effects of prop 215 and the access until I was laid off and broke my foot. In the pain doctors office, I noticed certain patients filling out a form with a Green Leaf at its top. This was June 2011, in Nov I got my card. Works better than the opium based pills. I have cut my long and short term pain med in half. Some days I get busy with this hobby and it's like 11 before I realize I have not taken a pill. A TOP medical expert in Pain Management asked an audience of pain specialists, neurologists, researchers, and various doctors, "What is the number ONE pain reliever?" Nobody got the answer correctly, naming every pill in the process. The answer was: . . .DISTRACTION! I think this is the Santa Barbara version of the "OG" Let it veg right? Peace.

A og is a og. Just asking if there saying true OG. Just to charge more. Yes I'm in Cali. Been on the mmj Waggon for years. protests and jailed for it. I have had major problems with my back for the last 25 years. Add on arthritis and terrets. They had me so doped up on every pill you could think of. I stoped using convental meds all together 8 years ago. Pain is still there but I can work and deal with it.

I am using the Sunleaves 250W MH/HPS standalone, hanging the PAR 38 65W RB Veg light, and the 65W CFL in a heat lamp cage. MH during 24/0 Veg and then switch to HPS and 12/12. Perhaps Veg until May Day, 9 more days. Great hearing you story, similar to mine, chronic degenerative osteoarthritis, muscle and joint pains, metal rod in left Femur, pins in Hip, and screws/pins in my right Ankle from an accident years ago. I am more accurate than weather.com in predicting or confirming rain. Some days I enjoy growing the plant more than consuming. Growing the purest medicine and competing with Pfizer, Merek, and Big Farma in a serious fashion. IMO, it will not last long! Legalization or decriminalization at the Federal level within four years should a certain President get reelected. IMHO, Obama is waiting to lock a second term before being open to a conversation as he stated recently in South America. Every country in Latin America is begging us to legalize to ease the death and destruction brought by our War On Drugs. The ability to produce and donate edibles that Pillsbury can not? This will not last long. Money talks. War, what are your misting guidelines? Thanks.

I don't mist after roots. And yes I hope in the next 4 years it will be legal but it will take another 4-8 years for them to find a way to regulate it and who gets the rights to grow. It won't be use small med growers. Guess what GMO's they will add. So when that happens I'm stoping my rooms and going for 1 plant a month just for me. And yes my garden us my zen area and get lost in time.
