Just got done reading that other thread, holy sweet jesus, I am glad I wasn't around for that one, I would have probably gotten banned, again.

Then I have to say I'm glad you missed it. Wouldn't want you getting banned. I'm just sorry I fell for the bait that guy left out for me.. I'm usually better than that. Ugh.

I think the plants are going to make it and I have a pretty solid looking mother. If nothing else my harvest has just been delayed; not a big deal in the grand scheme of things

Which one is she in?

I think I'm going to mother a few more strains to keep on hand, but I can't decide.

I'm thinking:

Master Kush (though the seeds are kind of pale looking. Not sure if they'll root but they were a gift. So we'll cross our fingers and see. Either way I'm excited),

Church

White Widow

Although I may swap out the Master Kush if it doesn't root for Purple Power Plant.

My next log will be a mothering Log; should be interesting for those people who are wanting to learn how to grow/keep a mother. I want to keep them in no bigger than 1 or 2 gallon pots. Preferably 1. Once I get them to their established size I'll move them under a 150 or 250watt HID. I don't think I can keep more than 3-4 mothers at a time.

My flower room will initially be 4'x4' with a 600 watt HPS. This should give me room for about 12-16 plants. I may build out a second 4x4 area at a later date; but that will come when I save up some more cash.

I don't think I'll ever expand past my 3'x3' room w 400 watt MH for veg. I just don't see the need;

But ahhhh this is a story for another log. Which will be coming soon

EDIT: WT, which thread is the triched out plant at? bleh screw it I'll read them all. I'm behind on my grow logs anyway

daihashi · #**106** (**permalink**) Sep-21-2008, 22:44

New growth on the plants looks great. They are looking green and vibrant. The prospect mother is looking just gorgeous. Her secondary growth is really shooting off as well as her top growth. She's just so healthy and vigorous.

The 3 seedlings had a mini growth explosion. They are coming along beautiful and are also potential contenders for mothering.

Fed them about 15 minutes ago:

5ml Canna Coco Nute A
5ml Canna Coco Nute B
6ml CalMag
1 gallon Tap water
PH'd to 5.6-5.7

Run off ph read at 5.7-5.8

Plants are looking beautiful considering the hell they went through. Hopefully all will be well.

I am going to switch the plants back to 18/6 for some stealth. I have some repairs I need my landlord to do (yes I know this landlord very well and his habits. I practice safety as safely as I can. There is no threat here.. trust me. He never shows on property unless someone calls and they are at their residence. He's pretty respectful of peoples privacy.).

Pictures will be posted by the end of the week. I'm hoping for some great growth to show you guys. I think at the end of this week I'll go ahead and LST 1 time on all my plants. Just bend it down once and let it grow like that. I don't want to really get into it like last time.

Next grow when I can get a bunch of clones will be an attempt at SOG.. but for now I want to try to get the most bud out of this that I can.

I am so happy with coco.

daihashi · #**107** (**permalink**) Sep-23-2008, 19:41

Fed half the plants last night and the other half this morning:

5ml Canna Coco Nute A
5ml Canna Coco Nute B
6ml CalMag
1 gallon Tap water
PH'd to 5.6-5.7

Run off ph read at 5.7-5.8

So plants are again looking great. I now have 2 larger plants that are potential mothers as well with the first mother in contention still being my #1 pick. In addition 2 of the seedlings seemed to have a growth explosion. Looking great.

On a down side I dropped 1 plant twice.. in less than 5 minutes from at least 5ft off the ground. Sigh.. on a positive note it was a plant that's been lagging and doesn't look so pretty anyway. I picked it up.. re packed the medium and put it in the cabinet. I suspect the root system is a little stressed now. Hopefully it will get over it or keep on going without missing a beat. We'll see.

Pictures coming this Friday or Saturday.

daihashi · #**108** (**permalink**) Sep-24-2008, 11:34

Fed again today

5ml Canna Coco Nute A
5ml Canna Coco Nute B
6ml CalMag
1 gallon Tap water
PH'd to 5.6-5.7

Run off ph read at 5.7-5.8

It's worth mentioning that whenever I feed the plants that I am only feeding them 6-8oz of water each. This gives me about 15-20% run off and the plants utilize majority of the water. Allowing for plenty of air to get into the medium and promote a healthy root system. So I am not always mixing fresh nutrient solution. 1 gallon will last me about 2 - 2.5 feedings. For the moment. I suspect by the end of next week I will put all their plants in their final containers for the next 8-12 weeks. I will be going with 2 gallon pots. I feel this should be more than adequate to complete my grow and allow me to keep my waterings down to once a day... MAX.

I will be building a home made drip ring system for my plants sometime after the transplant. It would be a pain to hand water all the time.

We'll see, be expecting pics friday.

On another note, I got the final word and I'll be closing on a home I am purchasing tomorrow @ 2pm.

YAY ME!

edit: It's hard to believe that this is day 21 of veg. The plants are looking great considering they almost an entire week without power or any type of care. I wish I could see what they would look like had I been there to care for them and if I had power to give them proper lighting.

I have a coupe of plants now that look like they would be very nice moms. It's going to be hard to choose.

I will begin LST once I transplant into the 2 gallon containers.

Weedhound · #**109** (**permalink**) Sep-24-2008, 12:28

You ARE closing on a home with roof and all considering Ike right?

In your OWN HOME you can do everything but grow them from the ceiling in every single room if you want so you'll be able to see them do ALL SORTS of different things.

Weedhound · #**110** (**permalink**) Sep-24-2008, 12:31

Hey I'm about to start a few Master Kush myself.....that's going to be one of my standard hydro growers. Try it....you'll like it. I've used some light looking seeds before and I've never seen it affect germination (unless they were immature seeds to begin with and that's why they were white)

I had the inspector go out and reinspect the house since my lenders required a reinspection after the hurricane. Contrary to what you see on the news, mainland houston wasn't hit THAT bad. Galveston and the water front cities that are on the outskirts of Houston did suffer, but that was to be expected.

Yeah, I'm very excited. I've already dedicated one of the 14x14 rooms to be my grow and work area for the plants.

Good to know. As soon as I get settled in I'll be starting another log for all my mother plants.

I'm so excited to have a legitimate grow area now as opposed to being confined to a 3x3 cabinet (which I'll still use to veg/mother plants). I'm thinking of building 1 4x4 or 5x5 flower room.. and then building a second 5x5 flower room at a later date.

Puffzter · #**113** (**permalink**) Sep-24-2008, 13:59

2 flower rooms and a mother/clone area.
*drewl*
I would pick up breeding then. It would be so nice to have areas like that to play around with.
Lucky you.

Few things.

I am officially a home owner. I closed on a house yesterday and as of Thursday 4pm I became the proud owner of a 2504 sqft home, 2 car garage, massive back and decent sized front yard, 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bath, large kitchen and living areas with a formal dining that luckily already had french doors on it (which will become my personal study).

I got electric, gas and water connected already.

Onto a grow note:

Fed the plants when I got home last night at around 11-11:30pm. Fed with the following:

8ml Canna Coco Nute A
8ml Canna Coco Nute B
6ml Calmag
1 gallon of water
PH 5.7

Plants were a little more thirsty than usual and were visibly bigger. I should try checking on them only once a day more often. Seeing the growth is very encouraging this way as opposed to checking on the plants 2-3 times a day.

I just like to look at them. It's a flaw of mine. A bad habit I've been trying to break.

Today I'm going to try to hit up the hydro shop to see if they have any cannazym or rhizotonic in stock. I would really like to promote some decent initial root growth and health when I trans plant them to the 2 gallon containers.

We'll see.

Pictures will be posted up this evening. Probably around 9pm-10pm or so.

I still have a few more house errands to run but for the most part I'm set to go. I'll be throwing a bbq there this weekend for my friend who recently lost his Schnauzer, Oscar, to old age.

Oscar was 15 years old and a hell of a dog. He will be missed.

daihashi · #**115** (**permalink**) Sep-26-2008, 10:04

Also I will be refraining from most other forums other than my growlog and the grow forum in general.

I've not felt myself lately and feel that I need to spend more time taking care of my health than I do on the forums. I was extremely concerned yesterday and someone spoke to me and really made me feel much better. I thank them tremendously for that and I give a thanks out to them. You know who you are

As I feel slightly more refreshed today and in a little bit (key being little) of a better mood I think I will continue what I've changed to try to bring balance back to my health.

Also I've been dry for sometime and I do have some bad social anxieties; which I've realized how bad it actually is when I'm not intoxicated. It's probably for the best as I smoked too much to begin with. I need to start smoking from more of a medical approach and even when it's recreational I need to cut back.

You'll still see me on the forums; but mainly the grow.

Weedhound · #**116** (**permalink**) Sep-26-2008, 13:12

Few things:

CONGRATULATIONS on your new home!

Big BIG step if it is your first and it sounds like a damn nice one to boot.

If you are looking for better STRONGER roots get rhizotonic.....cannazym won't help your roots grow. Cannazym does something to the dead roots so that they don't rot and start off root rot in your plants. It won't help your roots grow, but Rhizo will.

third: I've learned your same lesson the hard way. There are several things I completely stay away from on cdot because if I put my nose in them I'll just plain flip and thats it. Quite a while back people used to talk up and down about how they would get their animals high......let them eat weed etc.......as a vet tech this kind of bullshit being posted would absolutely make me CRAZY!!! Very luckily the site owner and P4B made a rule to forbid that kind of terrible talk and I thank them for that to this day. But my point is the same as you said........I couldn't take the heat and had to learn to stay out of the kitchen. Sometimes that's not very easy.

It's my social anxiety that really screws up my usual well thought out posts and makes them seem as if they're coming from a condescending point of view. I can acknowledge it may seem that way and that's my primary reason for refraining from other forums.

I have the unfortunate ability to absorb information as if I were still a 2 year old (their minds are like sponges after all) and I spout this off in hopes of *informing* others. Sometimes I've noticed when I'm feeling particularly anxious I may say a comment that may come across snide even if it's not meant to.

It's frustrating to me that people will not take information and actually interpret it with their own brains as opposed to just regurgitating what's spoon fed to them, but that's for another forum at another time when I'm feeling myself.

In addition to the social anxiety I've had some physical ailments such as loss of balance (when I normally had far above average balance due to my Boxing background) headaches, moodiness and a few other minor ones. Today admittingly I'm feeling about 30% better than I have over the last 2 weeks and I'm hoping I was under stress even if I don't realize it (I tend to push myself because I don't like putting things off onto other people. I like to take responsibility for as much as I can). Combined with Ike, poor eating, and poor sleep.. i think this may be my problem.

The house is very nice. I have some pics I can post up but I may wait until tomorrow. my friend took pictures but they don't give a good depiction of the actual size of the house. I am very happy for it being my first home.

In regards to your vet tech history. I actually rescued both of my pets. My dog, Molly, was at a kill shelter and was on her last week there. I couldn't bare to see her put down so I adopted her. My cat, Annie, was abandoned by it's mother when it was 2 weeks old. I suspect someone touched it when they should've left it alone and the mother rejected it. I found her under a friends trailer and bottle fed her.

I've also saved a pigeon from being hit by a freight mail truck.

My dog was also paralyzed for some time due to a disc that ruptured into her spinal cord. I couldn't bring myself to put her to sleep per the Vet's opinion. So I got her a doggie wheel chair (which she hated.. she prefered to crawl around instead). Over the course of a year she started twitching her tail; which at the time I thought I was just seeing things. Over the next 2 months it turned into a full wag. Then over the next month she started standing on her own, but fell down right away. Then she would be able to walk a short distance, but her back was shaped like an upside down U. VERY ARCHED and unhealthy looking. Over the course of the year following that her back slowly got flatter and flatter and now she's 100% better. You would never have guessed she was paralyzed.

While she was paralyzed I had to express her bladder and help her defecate; which was not a pleasing task at all.

The way I saw it was.. I wouldn't put my mother to sleep and I sure as hell wouldn't do that to Molly. She is my best friend and I love her with all my heart.

Pictures of the plants coming tonight! Stay tuned.!!!

Pic 5: Random shot of the mother. Tried to get the secondary growth in the image.

daihashi · #**119** (**permalink**) Sep-26-2008, 23:42

Pic 1: Overall shot of all the plants. Some plants are elevated to try to create an even canopy without topping. I'm hoping these smaller plants will catch up somehow.

daihashi · #**120** (**permalink**) Sep-26-2008, 23:50

I just wonder how big these plants would be if they didn't miss out on a week of light. They look so good now. I may go ahead and veg these out to 6 weeks. I still don't have alternating nodes despite starting the 6th/7th set of leaves/node.

Either way I'm pleased with the health and appearance of my plants. This one will become a beautiful mother.

dragonrider · #**121** (**permalink**) Sep-27-2008, 03:27

Hey, Daihashi, I never checked your log before because I don't grow, but I saw your recent post over in Politics and had to come check the log out. Very nice by the way, especially considering the natural disasters and everything else! I just wanted to say that after reading the last two weeks, I've got a better understanding of a few things.

Take care of yourself. Good luck with the grow! AND CONGRATULATIONS ON THE HOUSE!!!

Hey I have several plants right now that are 8,9 or more nodes and still don't have any preflowers or alternating nodes, don't know if it's good or bad? I guess I don't care though, I am sure they are still young, about the same as yours minus the hurricane shit.

Your plants look great, they are really compact, I wish mine were more like that.
Did you trim or take any low growth off any plants? Just wondering, your plants look pretty, nice broad fat green leaves!
