Thundercat's Groooooooow

I appreciate the offer man good looking out. I'll figure it out though one way or an other. I kinda like that the solubles will last for a long time. Seems like a better value for the money. Once I get them all, I'll have them for a couple grows. Lol, maybe by the time I finish them all, I'll be able to afford switching to advanced nutrients, or maybe dutchmaster!

Thanks man appreciate it. Well I got some spores from spores101.com not to long ago, but I wasn't impressed the syringes weren't very dark. I've heard good things about hawkseye though.

I'm a big fan of Dutchmaster. I beleive their products have done great things for me. I recommend them.

I've read alot about them, and they seem like they would be excellent nutes!!

Heyyyyyyyyyyyyy TC man, lol. Where u be ??? I was hopin you'd have them snaps up so i can see what my shit will look like in a week, lol. Dude, i gotta kick you down some Sour P cuts man. All i can say, is that the shit STINKS like fuckin lemonheads candy. you cant get it out of your nostrils man. Thats gotta be the Sour Diesel shining through, but lemme fuckin tell you that i aint never smelled bud like that before man. Im in fuckin LOVE, lol. But yeh dude, u show me yours n ill show mine off on friday for sure! Im still waitin for the "Big Swell", when you wake up that one morning n your like "eh?! are these my fuckin plants?!", but itll come any day im sure. I just supercropped the majority of my big branches, just as an experiment to see what happens with them, but every branch ive done in past grows, has swollen out to be one FAT, FAT fuckin nugget. so i figured what the hell, lol.

Hit me up bra!!
-K1.

Lol, ya I never even left my house yesterday. I have to get water on my way home from work tonight, then I'll have a good picture update for you guys!! That sour P sounds sweet King, i was readin what you wrote in your journal about it. As far as the swell goes, I'm desperately waiting on m sativas to start to swell up, but my WW has begun to. The buds have gotten about 2 inchs longer in the last couple days, and have been growing noticably fatter too. Well like I said pics tonight !!!! Peace TC

I wanna see pics!!!

Ok so I spent a couple hours in the garden tonight. I got my water, and gave them all a full dose of bloom nutes. They took it well last wekk, and I hit them all with some straight water a couple days ago, so I figured a full dose would be good! I also started removing dead leaves from the inside and bottom of the big sativas, and decided that since they still have about 7 weeks to go, I was gonna trim out a bit more of the lower growth. I mostly just removed the lowest popcorn buds from all the sativas, and a few from the bottom of the kush. The WW has really beefed up since I had removed its lower growth, so I'm hoping it helps the sativas do the same. I'm making butter with part of the trimmings as we speak. I've got a small crock pot filled with popcorn buds that I chopped up, and then added 3 sticks of melted butter. Its been simmering for about 2 hours so far, and I'm gonna leave it for a while longer. I still have about the same amount left, or maybe a little less, I'm prolly gonna make butter with that tomorrow, just gotta get more butter.

All the WW are really packing on the buds, the mother looks great, and the clones are all turning out awesome. The kush is starting to fill in, as are the puprle power #2, and the skunk#2. The Skunk #2 looks really nice actually, its got some nice size nugs all over it. It is one of the plants that has the air sponge in it, and compared to the plants that don't its a very noticable differance. The WW also has one, and its buds are obviously developing nicely. Well heres the pics finally.

Well guys hope you all enjoy, and Hopfully it was worth the wait. I know I can see a huge differance just this past week, so I can't wait for the next several. Today is the 4week mark for the WW. It will get 2 more weeks of nutes, then a 2 week flush. Its been fattening up alot already, so unless it completely stops in the next 2 weeks, then I'm gonna stick to the plan. I beleive that will mark about 11 weeks since the plant showed flowers. I'm giving everything else another 5 weeks then a 2 week flush, for a total of 7. Latta guys, I'll talk to you tomorrow! Peace TC

TC Those look great man! keep up the good work

Thanks Cali I'm tryin to do my best. This is only my second "real" grow. I don't have any doubt that it is gonna be way better then my last. I also have no doubt my next grow is gonna be way better then this one.

So I simmered the cannabutter last night for about another 1.5 hours after I posted, then shut it off, and let it cool, now its back on again. I'm gonna give it another hour or so, then strain out all the buds. I think the shit should be pretty good, it smells weed-alicious!! I'm gonna keep the stuff I strain out, and use it with the other trim I still have to make another batch tonight prolly. I'll keep you guys updated on the butter and how it turns out. Peace TC

im blown away TC!!! that was an amazing update. those buds are going to be soooooo DANK!! hope your budder turns out good and keep up the great work!!!

whenever I have made butter I find that 6 hours of cooking it is really worth it, sometimes I feel like I am tripping. I do it by filling a pot with water, boiling it with the weed all ground up, then add butter to it and keep adding water so it doesnt get boiled up all the way. I stop adding water for the last 2 hours and watch it get down to mostly butter, then take it off. Its worth the 6 hours, sooo much better than a couple of hours. and if I dont want to wait for it to harden and seperate from the water I put it all in a big ziploc and the butter floats on top of the water. then i point a bottom corner of the bag down over the sink and cut it open so water starts flowing out of the bottom. I pinch it closed when I have nothing but melted butter in the bag and just use it melted instead of hardening it.

those ladies are beautiful bro

Thanks everybody, I've been really happy with how everything is turning out. I just strained out the butter, it had about 4.5-5 hours of simmer time in the crock pot. I really like this method if it turns out as potent as it smells. The butter never got so hot that it even bubbled, it just simmered nicely. I'm gonna reuse the trim I already simmered, with the rest of the trim I still have, just to get the most out of it. Its in the freezer right now seperating, and cooling. But I think its gonna be dank, its got buds from all of my strains in it!

those buds look fuckin awesome man , lemme know how your butter turns out ... i just made cookies 2 weeks ago that came out really good ... i want to try doing at a lower temp tho too , wasnt boiling .. but simmering lightly

Thanks weedman, yours have been looking great too. I think the mini crockpot worked great, I'm eating the first of the butter right now actually, so we'll see how it works. I didn't smoke yet today, so hopfully I'll be able to notice it. My gf made me some ganja-roni and cheese, so I'm gonna eat it, and see what happens. The butter sure smells ganja licious, and its dark ass green. We simmered the second batch for about 6 hours. I'll let you guys know how it goes tonight when I get off work.

So I got a buzz off the mac and cheese, but not really stoned. I just imagine there wasn't enough butter in it to really notice. So my girl is makin me some peanut butter cookies as we speak, so we'll see how that goes.

Other wise I thought it was kinda funny that no body posted on any threads that I'm subscribed to. Just an observation. Peace guys! TC

Beautiful plants TC...

They look super healthy!!!

As for no posts, I've had a little bit of action over at https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/167596-gypsys-picture-depot-28.html

I uploaded quite a few pics in the last few days...

Cheers.. and Keep doing what you are doing, they look fantastic!!!

Thanks Gypsy, I'll swing over and check out the pics man!

So the peanut butter cookies are awesome!! I ate about 7 prolly, they weren't huge, and I'm literally getting some slight movement in my sight, like when I am tripping. Lol, any way, just thought I'd give a report! TC
