Yeah. I definitely can't wait for that fat growth spurt that makes everyone's buds look like they should be on the cover of high times magazine (*cough* jerry garcia *cough*) lol.

Hopefully it'll be sometime in the next 2 weeks when the plumping starts.

Damn do those look good.
I see you have lots of side drainage... I'll bet that you wold not have had such good results without it- those plants are HUGE- you have them at about 5-6 main leads per pot? I can't quite tell, but they look bad ass. Little K def going on in an earlier pic but whatever; you'll get to harvest no prob!

The small pots have about about 4 mains each and about another 6 that are close to main cola size.

The big 7 gallon pot has like 20 mains and another 10 that are contenders.

The symptoms showing earlier (multiple symptoms actually)were from being rootbound and me being in denial.

I didn't expect them to eat up 2 more gallons of soil in only 4 weeks time.

Thanks for stopping in stinky. It's always good to have bragging rights that the Princess of Cannabis.com stopped by my log

Y'alls making me blush. Seriously I'd hang out a lot more in peoples' logs if I didn't have to spend so much time playing babysitter... lol~ it's been a week...
I CAN'T WAIT to see harvest pics. How aggressively do you plan to flush them? Are you going to try to force yellowing before harvest, or just do a couple good plain-water-to-runoff waterings in the last week?
I'm VERY impressed all around by the condition of your plants.

Eh, I'm not really sure. I mean I honestly started this grow for some of my friends. I decided to start growing for people with MS, POTS, gastroparesis, etc etc that I know since marinol is so expensive and often leaves sides that alot of med patients don't like compared to the real deal.

Since I don't actually smoke (I vaporize) yellowing the leaves wouldn't be necessary for me.

And some of them can't smoke because their parents would freak out if they found out their 24 year old was smoking some MJ, despite the fact that they try to buy them marinol.. makes no sense to me.

Some of them can't eat it either (gastroparesis or crons) so I was going to make a green dragon type deal for them.

I guess what I'm saying is I'm not sure how aggressively I should flush since the intent of this grow was not really for me, although it's looking like I'm going to have plenty for myself here.

What would you suggest Stinky? I've heard you say you work with med patients.

edit: Oh and I'm not impressed by my plants, but I'm impressed that you're impressed, lol. I made alot of mistakes unintentionally. So many in fact I think my next grow will be almost flawless. In that respect I'm fairly thankful I tried to troubleshoot my issues myself most of the time instead of relying on the forums every time a problem arised.

Also stinky, do you know anyone with conditions I listed? I am particularly interested in MS, POTS and gastroparesis and what those patients like to smoke (strain). I've read the strain/med thread and searched but don't ever come up with any hits and if I do then the strain that is recommended is not available in seed form from any seed banks

I'd do a proper flush just because the end result will be smoother all around, and less chlorophyll is good even if you are doing concentrates.

As for conditions, of the ones you listed the only one I have experience with (not personally) is MS, and for that, I've gotten good feedback on Jillybean aka Space Jill, and Pure Power Plant.

whiskeytango

plants look amazing D..i grew out some sensi PP once...very clean high...good for daytime, or medicating and retaining clarity, and quite a pleasant taste..more woodsy than you would think

daihashi · #59 (**permalink**) Apr-01-2008, 15:21

Thanks guys.. I appreciate the input. Wanting to really get something that will benefit the people i'm trying to help out and those suggestions are a big help.

I normally don't do this but here's a middle of the week bonus shot from my sexy ladies.

I hadn't actually looked at them in a few days and they've really seem to be thanking me for the new space I gave them in their 5 gallon pots.

Here are some shots of what it all looks like now

Pic 1: Shot of the Canopy
Pic 2: Another shot of the canopy
Pic 3: Shot of a cola top with my hand behind it.
Pic 4: Shot of another plants cola top. Color came out great on this one.
Pic 5: Shot of my monster 7 gal plants cola. It's thinner than the rest but feels alot denser. I'm still hoping it'll plump up though.

daihashi · #61 (**permalink**) Apr-03-2008, 16:22

Pic 6: Another plants cola top

I have so many of these fat colas I don't know what to do. They haven't even began to plump up yet. These are just more calyxes that are growing. I can't wait for the fattening phase.

SnSstealth · #62 (**permalink**) Apr-03-2008, 17:39

I'm on day 47 or 48 of flower. So about a week and a half difference between us.

Yeah they just snuck up on me. I think growth halted due to them being root bound and now that I've given them some more leg room they've thanked me by showing it up top with some nice calyx production.

BTW Congrats on the mention in High Times!

I had no idea your grow was looking that good.

I would start to stake up those colas, they look to be leaning already.

They look ready to put on weight fast so I would be prepared.

Great work Dahashi you are well on your way to buds like mine.

Thanks JG, Thing is that most of them are staked up/supported. You can't really see in the pics but I have long bamboo skewers that I use to hold up the colas.

Geez I can only hope my buds look as fat as yours. I already know they're not going to be high resin producers like yours because of their genetics but if I can make them look fat and swollen like yours I'd be very happy.

daihashi · #66 (**permalink**) Apr-04-2008, 12:30

Also I had my only 2 friends that know about the grow come over last night and give it a smell test. To see if they smelled the same things as I smelled.

Without giving them any direction I asked them to touch a flower top and then smell their fingers and tell me what it smells like.

They both agreed (I brought them in seperately so they wouldn't be influenced by each other) that two of them smells sort've like a mango/Starfruit, the monster one has an orange/lemon scent to it, and the 2 other smaller sativa's smell kind of lemony/skunky.

I didn't get massive resin production like I wanted but at least I got some fruity smelling crops.

I'm hoping the taste will complement the smell.
