word, I've taken this clone in under my wing and it's been in my previous plants bucket system. As you can see by the pics, I had a pretty fat plant.. haha. this clone should flower very nicely. I've SCROG'd this bad boy and it's a huge canopy now. I've switched to 12-12 since yesterday.


I've also got 2 pots with 4 and 5 lil saplin's who i've just decided to flower small as I've got about 20 more in the backyard lol Will update with pics in the morning haha

Here are some MUCH better pics for ya. I'll get into the tech of my system.

Two foam wands along 2 sides and 2 airstones in the center. I've ducktaped a airpump backup power supply combo to the bucket and it powers the bubbles. The 2 short hoses have both check valves and twist knob valves. I flower 12 hours under then sun and 12 hours in the closet. Conveniently I can carry the bucket, pump and it's cord with ease. As well this plant is obviously SCROG'd. Never tried it before but it's definitely somethin' else. I use FloraNova Grow and Thrive-Alive B1 for veg. FloraNova Bloom, Thrive-Alive B1 and Blooming Essentials to flower.



Here's my little "experiment"..

is that screen supported by the bucket in some way or just laying on top of the veg. not saying it is right or wrong just curious.

Actually, it's quite the technique, at the corners of the lid there are voids, wax string tied from the screen runs from one corner to the other to be tied to the opposite end of the screen. 2 of these running along the lid but outside the bucket hold the screen very tight, this makes nute changes possible without untieing a thing, the string stays tight to the lid.


Here is how she looks today, couple days into flowering and hairs have begun to reappear (as it is a clone).

word, hittin up another update, such rapid growth with dwc!


I've noticed a mutation in one of my plants. Take a good look and tell me what you see. I'm pulling on a branch. There are 3 branches and one shoot comming off the stem while the top continues upwards. See what I mean? Also the branches are in funny positions.

It's Friday July 30 Here's an update on "Lucy". Day 8 of Flowering. This pic was taken inside the closet growspace, which i only use to control flowering. It's strung with cfls as a backup to the beautiful sun here in bc.


And a view of the canopy, the plant is about 2 foot by 4 foot and getting larger.

Well we're into the month of August now. I'm only anticipating just over another month of great sun for this plant to flower under. Picked up some long airstones and airhose to hack together a multi-site dwc for a sea of green. Will have that setup over the next few days as I have many burmese plants to throw in it. Check It.

day by day mang.. today I replaced my nutes and also re-rigged my bubble action. I'm now back to using the circular stone just off center and a bubble wand along a side.


I've also started using Blooming Essentials, Thrive-Alive B1 and Super B+. Aswell I'm applying Growth Max foliar spray to the buds once a week. Check it.

The canopy sure is filling up the closet well, almost too big to move these days!

Updating with some more pics, I made another application of Growth Max flower spray to the buds, another one or 2 applications and thatll be good for the seaweed extract. Will do a nute change tomorrow or soon after. Fillin in nice
