Welcome to the jungle
Hello buds, got some pics for ya and some more follies and adventures for you this week. Where shoud I start, hmm, well, I'm gonna have to find another cab to put my bubble clones in, due to them out growing the box. The addition of the glass plate has helped lower temps in the box, so thats a plus, also its made of pyrex, forgot to mention that in my last post. The clones themselves have shown to be extremely resilient and vigorous. The both of them are now 33" in height. I added a really half ass extension that I fucking hate, so I decided to find something else to put them in......again. Gonna try to find some thing around 4 to 5 feet in height, 6 would be choice. The 1st pic is a group shot which does not show the whole plants, the second pic is a closeup of the left plant(tiamat), the third is the right plant(ghidrorah). The fourth is the crappy extension which is basically a drawer with the bottom taken out, the fifth is a "down" shot. cactus out.

blah
just thought i'd let ya'll know, i will be destroying my plants soon, and hanging up my growing cleats for awhile. better lights, nutes, and equipment doesnt necesarliy equal a better grow. genetics make a huge difference. I am so turned off with my last grows, I havnt smoked in close to a month, so i'm not craving or even thinking about weed, i'm also starting a new job and i dont feel like paying any more attention to these bitches anymore. these plants have not stopped stretching at all, and they are taking forever to finish and quite frankly I dont want to do this for awhile. I know I could problaly order some 'high' quality fast finishing seeds, but its something I wont even go into. I do not like risking my life for some beans, and its a chance I will 'NEVER' take regardless of what anyone thinks or says. If by chance I could find someone locally, I would reconsider, just not now. thanks to all who have stopped by my little logs for a gander or two. I will still be coming around the boards and posting, just not growing for now. This was a surprisingly easy decision to make believe it or not. Thanks to all, and dont give up on ya'lls grows. I'll be growing in spirit with youse guys, laters, cactus out.

It really is a fulltime Job somtimes. I get annoyed with it too so does my Gf. She hinks I like the plants more than her, Which I think I might. But It can be a painful labour, Although I love it somtimes I just wish it could be more simple. that will come with some experience I think
Good grow mang.

change of plans..... I couldnt let it go
i had a slight change of plans for my little clones. I'll just say they live........for now. the other plants went peacefully. the reservoir was full of roots and then some, (possible reason for crazy stretch). the deceased plants were still developing shoots like crazy, couldve taken some clones, but i didnt. the little clones came from an actual mother plant that i had. I'll problaly start some seeds when i feel like it, just to find a suitable female, for cloning purposes. I want her to be vigorous and branchy and low maintenance. I've got my cloning technique down purty good, now to get my finishing technique just as good. like the title says, I couldnt let it go entirely. The roots on the clones hadnt started poking through the plastic basket yet so i saw it as a chance to move them into something that wont allow it to develop as big a root system, like 20 oz. water bottles with the tops cut off and a bunch of holes poked in the bottom, I put a mix of perlite and peatmoss with a lttle soil, for micronutes, in the bottles and placed the coco cups in the bottles, roots were starting to poke out the bottom of the coco cups. When the roots fully engulf the bottles the only way to sustain them would be to constantly supply oxygen to them with an air wand, which is running 24/7. I'll keep ya'll posted on their progress. No pics for awhile, I'm feeling superstitious. Ha!

well guys, I scored me a good bag of some piney compressed stuff, and i'm fooking ripped, ahhhh, just what I needed. I was impressed enough with my score, that i'm gonna use the seeds to find my special lady. The buds were huge and seedy, but not to the point that the seeds entirely took all the bud, which is a plus and the buds are full of red hairs. The bud wasnt compressed to the point of it being a brick, so the seeds are very usable. I'm definitely gonna keep these separate from my other seeds. I've only kept seeds separate one other time, and dont know what I did with those other seeds 
my current grow is going fine, the roots are already filling up their little bottles and their starting their stretch, where they finish they're stretch, is the main concern. I'll keep ya'll posted, I have the babys under 10,000 lumens of 27k fluorscents and my resevoir has superthrive, earthjuice, and a little calmag for nutes.

just checked my patients and they're thriving in their little pots, growing like weeds. The roots are developing all the way down to the bottom of the 'pots', about 2" below the water line. I have switched to air stones from the air wand I had previously.
I have noticed some 'suspicious' growths on these patients, i will be keeping an eye or two on them.
I also threw a bean in a pot, something I want to work on. I problaly would get way better chances if i throw more but i want to take it slow and study it a bit. dont know why. oh well.

the suspicious growth I encountered turned out to be nodes and the clones are starting to preflower.

SCRog
hey people, just to give an update, my flowering ladies are still alive and doing well. I've been pretty busy lately, and havnt had much time to get on the boards. I'm looking to this friday to post some pics. just to let ya'll know, my ladies did stretch quite a bit, but not at the rate and height of my previous "jungle". I managed to put a screen over them and bend them over quite a bit. I'm gonna keep weaving and tying the developing nodes through the screen to maximize bud potential.

Phriday Photos
Heres this weeks update on my scrog, which is looking purty good. I did some light pruning to open up some budsites to the light. I noticed some resin production starting up on some of the budlings. I figure i'm about a month and half from finishing, hopefully.

seedling
heres a photo of my seedling, its recovering from some crispy leaves, I was vegging it 24/0 with a 55w 2700k cfl. I've finally got around to putting a timer on it and I got a fan circulating the air around the cab. I found my long lost vegging light today, so I changed the bulb. Its a 30w 5000k cfl. It runs cooler than the 55w and gives it a way better color for vegging. Oh, i've switched my lighting schedule to 18/6. One more thing I found today, was the seeds I set aside, from my very first grow.

Heres some bonus pics, this grow is coming along very well. The stretch and internodal growth wasnt as wild as the previous grow, which overwhelmed my little box. The use of the bottles as pots, and the addition of the screen really helped tame these wild girls. I'm not sure what my yield will be when all is said and done, but I'm hoping its ready for at least a new years puff. The last two pics are the tops of the lowest nodes. They are about 14" below the screen. They look pretty good for not getting the amount of light as the top buds.
