Looking good Billy. I just planted my first BC Ice into soil and I am germinating a 2nd BC Ice.

I you need clones I could take 80 clones off of them for you. They should be rooted in about 1 to 2 weeks give or take a day or few lol. ;)

Thanks flossabe! I agree, the flavor is nice. The smoke is is intense at times.

On another note, my wife knew I was out of smokey smoke and came home after work with a bag of greens as a surprise! I knew she loved me... :)

So tomorrow ill take clones but before that one of my "mexican purples" popped above the surface today and one of my "moon" beans cracked today! Ill have pics tomorrow, cameras MIA. :)

Wait a minute ... I like Diva's !! To some extent :-) I am kind of subbing to the Purple's as I am leaning towards that type somewhere down the path of "My Hobby" InDaGardenOfEden. I hope that your camera's are not hiding from you, for lack of friendship :-) Love ya bro :-)

Doing pretty good on this end. My (4) NLB's are doing great as they are now into Day 19 of Flowering. Just finished up building my closet for clones (30" Square) and will be taking (4) Clones off (2) of them in the morning. These, together with the (2) Red Cherry Berries that are just starting in the veg station, will be my 2nd grow, and I am looking so forward to getting that started. I think that I enjoy growing, as much as smoke. NOTTTT !!.... But Close :-)

Glad that you found the camera. They are so jealous when you don't give them some love and affection.
Take Care my friend

I can honestly say I like the gardening portion as much as smoking it. I grew up helping dad in the (veggie & fruit) garden so it makes me reflect on that. He also used to grow MJ in our back yard until someone stole his crops. He had many many 8 foot trees n when we went on vacationwe came back and thwy were gone. I was in 1st grade so it wasn't me. ;)

Well ill have pics first thing tomorrow, the wife is sick and I don't need to be bothering her. :(

The First 6 pics are to show before & after of the pruning. Doesnt look like much but it actually was. Plus i didnt want to over do it, take too much and they die on me. Or at the very least go into a traumatic state and stunt growth by several weeks instead of at most 2. the 7th picture is of a BooBoo she had. One of her limbs bent in half over night so I too a straw, cut it in half down the center and placed it around the stem. Then i took some electrical tape (closest i had) and lightly wrapped it around the straw as shown. :) The 8th pic is of one of my "good dirt" seedlings. Had a pic of the other but was way blurry. (im high ;) )The others two leaves are FAT. My 2 purples are just about to open their hands. so close. Then theres various shots of all my other little clones and such. Youll also see some with messed up leaves and all that was, was because of a heating issue i was having in that room. Its been rectified since and theyre doing good. gotta rasie my lights! On my seedlings im down to the last lighting source so theyve stretched a little, not too much tho. Then theres the skull sitting in some leaves. :)

I "Hardly" swear ... But those pics were FUCKIN AWESOME!!!!! (Especially Mr. Skull) :-) Damn you have a perpetual InDaGardenOfEden going on there brotha !! I thought at (10) plants at various stages, I was doing pretty good. I take it that this is pretty addictive (The growing aspect), and if so, I am going to be headed for Divorce Court for sure. :-( J/K on that aspect. She does love me so very much, and ditto on my part.

Son of a Billy .... You are Da Man!! I guess I may have to buy a vacant building soon, cause now I am stoked. I can just imagine once I get a cpl of grows into me, where that will lead to. Nice work Bro. Keep it up for sure.

Peace and Love

LMAO bob! You had me at divorce court :)
i know that feeling though, the urge and desire to want to grow more, yet knowing the wife isnt gonna like the idea as much as you. lol. mine doesnt like seeing it, says im crazy. Thats why i grow, to keep me sane man. It really is THAT addictive. So far i have 21 plants and ill be taking clones from my taller lady as soon as she shows sex. IT not SHE i know but im hoping! ;) think ill round off at 24-25. if i had money id have a lot of hydroponics gear to be bought and set up. Next grow (spring) im doing a nft tube grow. Ive really gotta get my filter going soon cuz my tallest plants are gettin smelly now. Ive got a lot to do!

This building you speak of, ill go in on it with ya! lol

Sounds great on the building LMAO :-)

I too have to start thinking about the design and how to, when it comes to hooking up my carbon filter. (Damn thing is new and was gifted to me by someone on the Maine Patient Forum here). I looked it up and they are like $125 - $140 bucks. Damn I have some great friends that I am meeting on here. :-)
I hear ya about the $$ issue, as now I have to save my pennies for my daughters upcoming July wedding. If it would not be for that, I would be buying some more lights, better nutes, etc. One can spend some booku bucks on this if they wanted to. Hell just my small garden I think I am approaching around $1,400 so far, and thank God, the majority of things are here on board, so I am all set at the moment.
Why do women tend not to grow weed? I keep telling my bride of 28 years to keep thinking that they are tomato's :-)

I know how that is but also some times it doesn't show how tall the plant is either.

Little update:

Took my cluttered around plants and made a new space for them under my stairway. New ßeedlings were stretching so I took my garage light down and put into action. All the clones and a few others and seedlings are under it now. Its a flouro light. Has 2 lights, 4 feet long and set at an angle to accommodate the height variances.

My other 3 are doing good and I'm setting up tje 2nd 400 watt hps today as well as getting my SCROG area ready for some play time. I need more hydro stuff! Soil grows slooooowwwwww. But looks good nonetheless :)

UPDATE TIME:
So its been a week (8 days) since i last updated. Sorry, just been busy doing life.
Well as you can see they have grown...a lot! Last night was my first night that i could smell them upstairs...already!?
These little girls are going to be potent, i can already tell. ;) The taller girl on the right is the one that just barely showed sex yesterday morning and with only a few hairs yesterday is now COVERED in them today. shes definitely going to be more sativa too since shes a whole 10 inches taller than the other 2. I have her tied back and down and still about 5 inches taller. So im thinking shell grow just like my first plant, lanky yet budded up! And I can say without a doubt the shorter are predominantly Indica, which i cant wait for. Ice is strong and my first run was more sativa and the indica in it still could knock me and buddies down, so i can only imagine and indica dominant bud! I was going to take pics of my seedlings and soil grows but my camera died. Ill have more pics later today at some point. let me know what you think! (and no, those littler 2 are actually on a 5 gallon bucket, not the ground as pics insist) :) :weed:

P1011525.jpg Just a side shot.
P1011526.jpgP1011527.jpgP1011528.jpgSorry for some of the blurriness, but clearly a flowering wild child.
P1011530.jpg Hard to believe these are only a month behind their big sister. ;)
P1011532.jpgP1011533.jpg Few different bud sites.
P1011534.jpgP1011535.jpg Another side shot as well as a shot to show the size difference a month makes.
