I know, the reason i cut her down was b/c the top of the kola looked like it was dying and i thought it was going to spread down... so i made an executive decision and, cut.

Well, the last plant has been drying for about 4 days now, i think its gettin pretty close, the sticks dont quite snap yet, but i think theyre still pretty close. Im on my way over to a buddies to test a sample.... everyone wish me luck and i will soon return with a smoke report.
Remember this product has not been cured at all so the smoke report may not be the best , i am simply hoping to geta buzz from my dead lil girl.

Thanks Zeb,
Well the test smoke went pretty good, we smoked 3 bowls then a joint. The weed tasted kinda funky, but it got us high. The high wasnt particularly great or nething, but it was ok. The joint and bowls however seemed to have a little bit of trouble staying lit, does this mean it could dry for like a day longer??
It gave me heady high, but the high wasnt too strong. maybee a good month or 2 curing will help the taste and potency. Oh well maybee the next one will be better.

Next grow??
Now for my next grow Im not sure wheather i should stick with the seeds i got or try a new strain.. the only reason i am aprehensive about picking up some new seeds is because they are so damn expensive. Anyone kno any places i can get maybee like a 5 pack of quality seeds for a descent price?

Re-do
Lets try this again.
This time around I have 7 plants. 3 are in/sat freebies, 2 bigbuds, 1 orange crush, 1 unknown bag.
I have put up some mylar to get the most out of my 400w MH/HPS and hope that will help. I also rigged up a drainage system out of a storage bin and some rod shelfing things, which should make the task of watering not so painful .
Temps have been about 75-80F in the day times and 70-75 in the nights. I dont even have to run my heat at all in my room b/c the exaust fan blow sall of the hot air from the cool tube directly into my room, then my room is heated for the day and night until the light kicks back on in the morn I think im probably spending less on heating my room with my light than i would be using with my houses heating system.... go figure huh 
Nute wise, I plan on backing off of the foxfarm granuals this time, maybee i will just use a pinch here and there during mid fowering, but thats it. I think they burned the shit out of my plants last time. I still going to use the foxfarm 3-part, then some liquid karma, sweet, and some molasses hopefully that will do the trick this time.
Here are the first pics

Thanks Zeb..
Im hoping this one goes good too. Im a little worried though right now, as my baby plants have seemed to slow down growth considerably, ans a couple plants havent even developed 3 finger leafs yet and are drooping.
I hope storing my seeds in the fridge didnt hurt them

Day 8.... i think
Here are some knew pics, u can see in the first pic and second, sone of the problem plants  , slow lil bastard dont get a going and their fix'n to get the trash bin... too bad, so sad. Im starting to think i shouldnt have stored those seeds in the fridge.
Today they were fed with:
1 tbls (15ml) Bigbloom
1 tsp (5ml) Growbig
I know that u arent supposed to fert for 2 weeks, but they were basically seedlings for a week. Why u ask, i have no clue, they just have been growing REALLY slow. So now day 8 + the week they were basically seedling, which some could probably still be considered = 2 weeks.
Also i fit in my nice oscilating ionic breeze, instead of that small white non-oscilating thing i had in there.

People say two weeks until nutes, but it's not actually so much the time you should be concerned with, but the health. Careful. Watch for signs of nute burn.

pic 2- The problemo plant has seemed to get a lil perk back since last time i saw her

u coulld get it online at a number of gardening/growing stores... i get mine at a local gardening center. Ill warn u right now that it is expensive, I pay 30$ a bag at my store. I also mix it at a 3:2 ratio with perlite b/c it is so expensive to make it last.
If u r going to look online for some just google it and u should be able to find some online places that offer it.
Also if u do get decide to use it remember that it is at least partially fortified, so u wont have to add any nutes for a while until ur plants use up all the nutes in the soil itself.

I wonder if that weird growth is caused by a root touching some fertilizer in the soil.

you should check out "black gold" its cheap, organic, and better than FF.......
for 20 bucks you get a bag that looks less flashy than FF, works better........see the trend.

re: black gold
i got mine at the "nearest" hydro store, but dude told me that they used to sell it everywhere on the east coast like 15 years ago, then there was an issue with the EPA due to its organic compound. so for a while you could only get it in cali...
ask around your local hydro shops, if they are knowledgeable, they will have it or know where to get it.
stinkyattic recommends a mix from agway, and we have an agway down the way from me so i had a buddy use the soil she recommended. it seems to be workin rather well also.....

Right on, yea my hydro store here has more nutes I have never heard of, but for some odd reason the only potting soil they sell is the ocean forrest. Im not exactly against the ocean forest execpt fo rthe price, but i am for sure not for it. I would love to find some black gold or agway somewhere.
Do u mix ur blackgold w/ anything besides perlite??
