Thanks guys!

The way they are in there is kind of just how they were thrown in there.... but it came out nice, just some minor adjustments to make :D. I still have room for 10 plants or so on that side.

See, the addition of the third set of plants in the box was supposed to mark the beginning of using additional lighting (I planned on using 2 vert 400W HPS in the center isle). Things didn't work out that way, with the original 1000W ballast going out (capacitor) when we went to the hospital, that and a few other setbacks. So...... The Veg room is Over full. I have 1 horizontal 400W HPS to hang over the center isle in the flowering room, and was lucky enough to borrow a replacement 1000W ballast for the original "jungle side" of the flowering room. I have been sanitizing the "jungle side" and am about ready to throw all the seedlings in there to continue vegging under the 1000W before males are weeded out (as in outside, to a further removed location until I am ready to harvest their pollen) and more plants are added to switch to start flowering (about 4 weeks away)..... by which time I should be able to replace the borrowed 1000W ballast with a brand new one of my own......

A hectic course of events, predictable only by guesses. And the future holds Fate, but only as a past tense concept, the present holds hope, and the past holds happiness, :).

Those two plants (looking to be sooo fat :D ) are 6 1/2 and 5 1/2 weeks into flower, they are both Jacks, and I see Great nugs coming from them.

Even the spider mite infested mothers buds are very nice (just premature, exhibited stunted development at the mouths of the spider mites).... busy trimming them now..... throw a couple pics up after I am done :)

thanks..... and speaking of perpetual.... I just put three more plants in the flowering room Yesterday.

Cuz for veg...... All 3 Maui Skunk Seedlings look male :( ...... two are confirmed.... I am probably going to collect pollen from them so it wasn't a complete waste growing them out.

Twilight A and C were Female, B was male and was chopped :).

All 3 Chemo Cindy seedlings were female..... two were removed to flowering room, one remains for mother hood :D :D

Once I get a couple batches of clones circulated through the veg room I can start more seeds :D (couple weeks)

Its only the plants from seed that are pictured

Accept the last two pics.... My Sensi Star finally decided to reveg for me.... so now.... Its ON! :fire:

seedlings and PK mother were watered yesterday... the rest will get theirs later today

I added something into the flowering room yesterday..... :D.... 430W HPS..... and three more plants :D...... I can still fit 5-7 more plants on that one side :D

The Jacks are at Week 7 tomorrow...... they were fed FFBB 1.5 Tblspns/gal BBB Full Strength, and FFTB 1/2 Strength. 2 plus weeks to go before harvest on them. One more feeding....... then just flush with HiBrix and/or BBB.

Chemo Cindy's, a Blue Dream, and Maui Skunks are all 3 weeks into flower, they were fed 1 tblspn/gal FFBB BBB 1/2 strength, and FFTB 1/4 Strength. The Mystery Clone turned out to by Chemo Cindy......

A Purple Kush, Blue Dream, the 6 SilverBacks, A Jack Herer and the New Seedling additions are all either at the end or beginning of their first week in there :D. They were fed 1 Tblspn FFBB, half strength BBB.

All plants feedings were watered in to approx 10% runoff.

Gotta Get Cuttings off the Blue Dream!

Loking real good in there. You just keep adding the watts up.... Where is the Maui Skunk from? I will be getting some of the Sweet Island Skunk, but they need 5 weeks to get clones ready..... I really need some skunk in the room. I was thinking (and looking) back at your grow, and when I arrived. So many things have changed in there it is amazing! I really like your flowering room, and your effort is commendable in this perpetual operation. I don't have the time right now to keep my little room perpetual, and no plans on keeping it perpetual in the future. Flowering room is looking great in there.


That pic of the Sweet Island Skunk doesn't do the justice. That was the last nug in the jar, and the trichromes were damaged and what not.

I could tell.... that's why I didn't really comment on it...... I get all my strains from growers/breeders for the most part..... so unless you know them... your kind of shit out of luck.... I don't disclose their info though, sorry.....

Honestly.... despite the lack of pic quality, the notable damage, and the lack of available samples..... I am sorry to say, I don't think you would get the same thing out of the Island Skunk as I do the Maui Skunk..... I do think you would get some excellent herbs.......

I have grown lots of Ganja....... Maui Skunk is certainly up there with other elite strains..... Its not just the final product, but the plants themselves that prove it for me.....

I haven't seen the Island Skunk, or More Importantly, grown it. I am willing to give it a try though for sure ;) Then I could offer a more educated opinion ;)

This Earth, the animals, the plants, the mountains, and snow, the rain, the oceans, our winds, the Beating Sun, gravity, forests, valleys, meadows, creeks, rivers,and streams, the air we breathe, the energy that travels, it all comes together to form such precious and perfect Life.

That they work together so perfectly, that we thrive on it thriving, all of the life outside of ourselves, That which feeds our souls. That Children may be born into a world of clean air, water, earth, and people. That Our Children come into the world with brilliant futures to behold, dreams to aspire to. That Our Children grow into a world of Justice, Virtue, Honor, Valor for Truth, and Pureness of Heart and intention. That Our Children be born into a world they can Love, Cherish, Find their place in, and Make into Their own for Generations to come. That we work together to create for our Children this World is my purpose. That we can All show Our Children Love.

The Earth is being eaten away, the water poisoned. Our weather we have compromised, and our rains and Oceans are being polluted. Our Creeks and Rivers and Valleys and Mountains are being destroyed. The air we breathe is being polluted, and the energy being wasted away to nothing. Our lives are so dependent upon our Natural world and Surroundings, yet we allow them to be destroyed, so we allow our Children's futures to crumble, their dreams to fall out of existence.

So I grow. And as I grow, I learn my place in this life, I have discovered my humility, and my dependence upon you, my fellow man. For I cannot save the world. And the world does need saving. From ourselves, as we watch it slip away, holding onto our foolish and vein greed and illusion of Power.

For it is in the soil that Lives, The water that it holds, and the Air and Energies that flow through it, that True Power lives. It is in the Sun, This Earth, and the Gravity that holds us together.

We can shape this world. Together. But only together can it form prosperity for our Children, for apart and alone, we each claw at vein successes, we each succumb our souls to ideas void of the essences and wonders of Life.

People are cruel to each other. People do not see the world for what it is, what it was, and what it soon will be. This world is NOT JUST. Virtue and Valor are remembered by fairytales, and rarely practiced. We are afraid of each other, of the Truth, and where we Truly fall in Life. Our Children are born into Unspoken Slavery. Not just Here in the U.S but worldwide.

I grow for these reasons. Not just plants, but I myself, I grow. I learn, and am further humbled every day by each new experience and revelation to relativity. So much comes together for these plants, and so as I stare at them, I am looking in the mirror, and in so many ways. And I can see all of your faces there too..... that we tend to such life.

I stopped growing years ago......

But a few years ago.... A new life was coming into the world..... and as the sun set...... As I saw Natures Beauty in Her Glory...... I knew it was time to open my wings..... To Rouse the Dragons of this world from their Magical Slumber...... To Fly together.... To grow together.....To breathe the smoke of wisdom from our nostrils unto Society, and breathe Fire into the World once more :fire:. To fullfill Our Solemn Oath, and Purpose.

For in Nature, It is Fire that cleans. Fire that allows for rebirth and new Life. To break down completely what has gone awry and allow for Nature to Restore more Harmonious Balance......

And That is what His name MEANS....

Sounds like you have a good source for your genetics. I am left to seedbanks and local dispensaries/ patients for my genetics. I am impressed, because I don't think I would be getting these results out of typical bagseed. Maui Skunk looks killer. I would like to find 4-5 staple strains for my garden. The Island Skunk may make it into a journal in the future....

Got a taste of what is to come :D

Grown by some one else.

First 3 pics are Jack Herer (same cut as mine I believe)

Second 3 are Silverback

The grower was battling spidermites through out there grow, :). Could have gone just a little longer due to that ;). But Its All Excellent Smoke indeed! Well cured too :fire:.

Completely dispels my earlier fears about the Silverback :D.

very nice.... bet that will turn out great :)

I got the weight off the three mothers I harvested about a week ago........

Twilight - 47.9 g (two weeks primie +spidermite damage)
Chemo Cindy - 49.1 g (two weeks primie + spidermite damge)
Maui Skunk - 44.2 (two weeks primie + spidermite damage)

total off the three plants is 141.2 g (5 zips) ....... a little more than 1/3 what they should have been :/ still look good and smoke good..... but its not the same :/
