    Okay, so I believe I lost most of my flowering pics from the last run. The ones I do have are from my phone and are simply terrible quality pics, so I'm just going to move past that and get into everything afterwards. I did decent but nothing special came of that run, I ended up culling 4 'strains' out of the 6 I ran that time.

    Here's a ghetto slideshow of the greenhouse progression, as I feel a bit surprised they responded so well in such a short amount of time. This is my first attempt at growing cannabis outside.

    Here's whats been going on in my flower room since july, beginning with a California Dreaming, Twisted Haze and two Mazar. These ended up vegging for a couple weeks before flowering, which was kind of a mistake. One of the mazar ended up going outside shortly after initiating flowering, which happened to be about a week shy of when the outside ones started flowering.
     
    After that a Purple Haze, Twisted Haze, THC Bomb and Deathstar went in, then two Anastasia Haze, another Twisted, Deathstar and Cali Dream. Last ones to get in the room were the 10 Medicine Man seedlings I sexed and vegged out. Couple veg shots in there too.

    Thanks guy, you aren't doing too bad yourself there.
     
      :laughing:
     
    Seriously though, your room is one to measure against.  :smoke:
     
     
     
    I'm actually scrapping or have already scrapped all but two from my collection. The Twisted Haze and Deathstar will be kept around until I find "better" ones to replace what they offer. THC Bomb will be making another go, though it's probably on its last run unless it surprises me. None but the TH really shined outside either and even that is too slow finishing for anything but a greenhouse up here, barring an amazing, perfect fall. I live in Michigan though, so that won't really happen.   :hide:
     
    I don't think I see anything worthwhile in the Medicine Man seedlings I have finishing, which is a shame.
     
    The good thing is I already see 3 of "jerry's kids" that intrigue me very much, so at least theres that. :ey:
     
    They're coming up next, whenever the big room gets cleared out I'm planning on giving them a week or so of veg time under the HIDs to get used to the new environment, unless they're too big by then. Planning on flipping around the second week of November, so they don't finish while I'm gone on vacation for xmas. 
     
  8. You better hold onto that death cut bro. I see thats the real deal. :bongin: shes my stanky bitch. Lol. People pay big bucks for that shit if your not aware. I just hand her out to growmies i know will do her justice. And they do the same. :bongin: looks like she didnt do too bad outside for ya either! Im hopin il be able to give her a go next season in the GH, have some heat out ther too by then to finish them late sativas in our awsome weather lol.

  9. I'm a mi man myself! Dig that greenhouse! Looks like solid structure! I seen what looks moisture? Humidity in some pics. Not sure what to call it. Jus curious if there's any vent, holes? I got some of Jerrys kids too! I got some stretchy gals! Thinkin my phenos are leanin more to sativa side? 2 weeks in and there's tallest I've grown! NOT lookin forward to winter....

    Yeah, it's the real deal. I believe (I've heard iow) that I get the cut from the guy who went down to ohio and picked it up for $500 (a single cut).....lolwtf. Definitely not getting rid of it but its nice to know I can get more whenever I need.
     
    And yeah, its got that fuely, earthy stank that permeates the whole environment around you from just opening a jar. It's chunking up nicely just too slow to be reliable year after year outside.
     
    The one single largest difference I've seen from indoor gardening to this greenhouse deal is the structure and resin content are different. Most "strains" seem to be a bit more leafy than under HIDs but the resin content and aromas are much more pronounced on each variety.
     
    Kind of cool to get these differing responses. 
     
     
     
    Yeah it was not my decision nor money that bought it. It's okay but too expensive for the size and it does indeed lack airflow, which is why I took that Lemon Skunk down yesterday.
     
    Saw a bit of mold start  :eek:  Cut out a couple inches below the infected site and burned the exposed cut to reduce reinfection rates. Thats about my only real concern, and its only that one and the mazar that have me concerned, really. They're the only ones that grew into the side panels.
     
    Next season I'm going to actually train them out, to prevent that if I can.
     
  11. Wowzers, its been a minute since I've posted anything here.
     
    I suppose it's time to remedy that...I'll have finished pics of flowers up soon, along with a detailed update of what I've done in the last couple of months.
     
    New room, new environment and the same soil....lets see what I can make happen, eh?

    Yeah its those "Nezaz" seedlings all grown up....they were getting a little out of hand by the time I built this room and brought them into it so I just did what I could to even up the canopy a bit. These pics were from sometime last week, they look much better now they've recovered.
     
    It's actually a 8x8x8 room with stud walls, insulation, osb and plastic over the wood to prevent moisture from reaching it. I was going for a sealed environment but the power constraints (atm), temperature and humidity prevented me from keeping the room isolated completely. The door is an over-sized, insulated 2x4/osb creation that works like a giant meat locker or freezer door; heavy but efficient at keeping sound down and temperature consistent when the building its in is unheated and near neighbors.
     
    I installed ducting and an inline fan yesterday, just need to pick up another cheapo timer and finagle with it a bit to get the temperature consistent during the running period. 2 1000 watt lights, HPS bulbs magnetic ballasts....just a wee bit hot without any ducting installed and I dont have the money for a nice AC yet, so an exhaust system will suffice for now. Lights are pinned to the top on ratchets, though I doubt I'll move them.
     
     
     
     
    Lol
     
    The THC Bomb is a good choice but the few times I've ran it I always end up choosing other flowers even with THC Bomb available....fruity smell that doesnt seem to translate into taste, decent potency but nothing special imo. Some people actively pursue this one over others but I don't; just not my cup o' tea, so to speak. Good yield though, if that's what you're looking for.
     
    I picked this up from a local dispensary as a cutting....you will likely find something better if you search through some seeds.
     
    Same goes for the California Dreaming I have, though that one actually has some kick to it and smokes very nice. Not one for flavor but its my favorite kind to roll up in a paper, hands down. Starts with a very mellow body/head mix that gradually builds on the cerebral effects. 
     
  15.  
    he musta quit growing weed or something..
     
    :confused_2:
     
  16. I thought I was in in the wrong thread what with GiMiK and his FIRST avatar ever............had me confused for sure . Hiya GiMiK :wave:

    I've just been a bit lazy. :hide:
     
    I'll do the edit thing avrio. Found some older pics and I'll go take some more tonight.
     
    Not too far away from harvesting the "Nezaz", likely in the next 2 weeks they'll all be down. Can't wait to try some.....a few have unique scents, something I've never had before nor smelled though it piques my interest. Only downside is the plants got stressed and dealt with temp variation through most of the flowering phase.
     
  18. Haven't forgotten about this, just waiting til i get them all trimmed up for some nice pics to share.
