Ultrasonic Mister?

Fog is condensation on the inside of the dome.. i used Island brand rooting gel and a Nitrozime bath to root them... i just trimmed the fan leaves and misted them with neem (to close the pores a bit). They aren't that tall.. prolly 4-4.5" we'll see what they look like when i get back from work, but as of this morning they look pretty much the same as last night/before i went to work yesterday

I might try super-cropping the potted ones to get a big fatty bush of a plant so i can do more with less... more later.. gotta go to work!

I changed their water (only water now) and misted them with plain water and NOW THEY'RE COMING BACK!

The last 24 hours have been like a crazy emotional rollercoaster for me. Jeez. I gots to chill the fuck out.

Anyways, I waited for my girl to get home before i topped the OGs today, cause she's the expert, and we did them up nicely... two hours later, they look pretty good. As do the two middle GDP clones... these fucking plants are resilient! I just can't believe they only needed plain water and mist... bloody Nitrozime bottle said 2tsp/quart solution bath, I did half the recipe, and they responded better to water... go figure... maybe they needed a break from the Nitrozime... less is more I'll wager... Anyways.. here are picture updates... looks like they all might make it out alive after all.... crazy.

It's not over yet folks... this morning the two that i had the most hope for are kinda droopy and the two i least thought would survive (indeed i almost threw them out yesterday!) are the tallest and most willful of the bunch. The two OG cuttings are prolly going to be alright, although they look a little droopy today too.
Last night i misted them all around 12AM before going to bed. this morning i woke up early (8AM) to mist them. I wil probably try to mist them as often as possible as they seem to be responding to this pretty well. I'll get some pics up in a few hours so you can see their progress (?).

So I kept misting them all day and they seem to really like that. My lady, bless her heart, went and got me a tiny air pump (3w EcoPlus) with a 1" stone. When I got home from work we installed it, putting the pump up on top of the light and the stone down in 1 gallon of water beneath the compartment tray into which was nestled our little seedlings and cuttings. I also put 1.5 tsp of vitamin b1 in the water just for a little rooting support. I will post some pictures in a few minutes when i spray them again b4 bed.

stay tuned... i expect I'll get my LEDs this week!

Hopefully it doesnt get held up in customs or anything retarded like that to delay it....

chronictronic · #26 (**permalink**) 09-19-2009, 07:26 AM

the lame thing is i can't even set it up until the goddamn landlord does a walkthrough and we give him a deposit. next week fer sure!

wizewizo · #27 (**permalink**) 09-21-2009, 07:55 PM

Hey man, glad you had a nice weekend up in shasta now get me some pics uploaded! How are your cuttings doin? Did the the girls miss you while you were away...

chronictronic · #28 (**permalink**) 09-22-2009, 05:36 AM

Man I tell u Shasta is amazing... I overheard two guys talking in a coffee shop about weed (one guy was from "Oaksterdam") and one guy informed the other that there were at least two dispensaries in Shasta City. Gots to be those Shastafarians running the game up over there. Anyway, onto the moment you've all been waiting for: my 318 watt behemoth from Hydro-Grow arrived pretty much on schedule (I had expected it to arrive today, but there was some miscommunication regarding tracking numbers that had me a little worried. That'll teach me to make major purchase orders during a Mercury retrograde!). I opened it and snapped some pics for y'alls to peep!

PS. the cuttings are looking good, but I must say that the potted mamas are lookin' FINE...

might have to take a few more cuttings off the GDP to get them to keep time with the newly rooting ones. Or maybe I'll just veg the smaller cuttings under the LED when the time comes and put the bigger ones out of the immediate footprint so they grow slower. who knows. Gettin the house all cleaned up for the walkthrough and then it's ON like muthafuckin DONKEY KONG amigos! I'll post some pics of the ladies in a bit if I don't fall asleep first. If I do fall asleep, they will be up tomorrow morning fer sure!

peace and blessings,

chronitron
