  1. Hey Blades!!!

    It's time for the top chamber update! Everything is flowering along nicely now and stretch seems to be slowing significantly. Everything is nice and green and budding up nicely!
    1437414463576.jpg

    Here we have Blue Widow #1 looking nice a pretty! I'm hoping to lay off the training now and let they grow!

    Next is Blue Widow #2 which is also pumping along nice and strong! I had to lightly tie back just a few branches this week to level things out.

    Finally we have the Blue Widow #3 looking real nice as well! She is getting the IronH3ad formula just like the other 2 this round!

    Thats everything from the top chamber for this week. Going to be dropping some Nocs tonight. Still gotta rid of some of some of these mothers. Thinking about brewing up an EWC tea for the veggies and organic plants. It's definitely gunna keep my busy this week!

    Peace & Love

  2. Hey Blades!

    Got my Garden update for you! The veggies and such are all looking pretty good!

    We'll start with the Thornless Dwarf Raspberry Bush which is growing pretty strong and putting out a good handful of berries every 4-5 days!
    1437585530331.jpg

    Next we have the Sugar Baby Watermelon. They are both doing well and fruiting nicely now! The first plant has 2-3 golf ball sized melons like this. The second plant only has the 1 baseball sized melon so far!
    1437585538875.jpg 1437585547606.jpg

    The triple veggie planter is going strong as well! The Provider Bush Beans are mostly grown out now and ready to go. I have 30ish Beans like this to harvest soon! The Sugar Daddy Snap Peas have just started flowering and will start pushing out pods soon. The Red Coat Strawberries have thrown a couple runners now that I have guided back into the planter. I'm hoping I can establish a good number of new starts for next year!
    1437585555885.jpg

    Now on to the MarketMore 76 Cucumbers. I have about 4 veggies forming so far. The first plant has this 1 nice sized Cucumber that's filling out nicely! The second plant has 2 smaller, but still growing, Cucumbers hanging out now. The biggest one is on the third plant and is putting on weight pretty steadily!
    1437585573243.jpg 1437585582946.jpg 1437585691879.jpg

    Next we have the King of the North Bell Peppers. I have 4 solid Peppers forming and 1-2 smaller ones as well now.
    1437585704772.jpg 1437585714404.jpg

    Followed by the Dwarf Patio Tomato that's growing quite vigorously in it 2gal pot.
    1437585726987.jpg

    Next up we have the Ficus that I keep meaning to prune but keep forgetting.
    1437585774717.jpg

    The triple flower planter has turned around nicely after the drought during my trip a week ago!
    1437585807074.jpg

    The Cyclamen is looking beautiful as usual and putting out new foliage.
    1437585817764.jpg

    Inside things are looking good too!
    1437585949142.jpg

    We have the Bromeliad getting close to cutting time. You can see the pups are getting bigger and almost ready to cut while the main flower is slowly dying off.
    1437585865444.jpg 1437585886748.jpg

    The 3x citrus trees are starting to grow quite vigorously and the Begonia seems pretty content as well!
    1437585899646.jpg

    The single French Marigold inside is thriving in its ceramic pot with quite a few vibrant flowers now.
    1437585914068.jpg

    The Ming Aralia is doing quite well and growing steadily!
    1437585934087.jpg

    Finally in the Anole and Frog terrarium the Neathe Bella Palm and the Ivy are both doing quite well!
    1437586013192.jpg

    That's all from the garden for now! I may pop up a picture of the whole balcony and the end planter which I must have forgotten to get pics of!

    On another note I dropped 10x Nocturnal into paper towel so we will see what happens as they are known to be going bad. I still have another 10+ seeds so hopefully I get a couple to pop!
    1437590389353.jpg

    I'll be back on Friday with the lower chamber update!

    Peace & Love

  3. Looking great man but got ta get back to work
     
  4. Hey GC!

    I have the Friday lower chamber update for you guys! Things are looking good and everything was recently stripped and pruned to open things up. What I should really do is get rid of the mothers cause I have to many!

    I'll start with the mothers beginning with the Blue Widows. The original reveg in organic mix is on the left and on the right is a cutting that was rooted in the bubble cloner and dropped into organic mix as well. I think I'm gunna scrap the clone and keep the reveg as it is doing really well lately!
    1437754132352.jpg 1437754142644.jpg

    Moving on, we also have the DarkLord mother that I should really get rid of soon as I have some rooted clones and I'm not sure how long I'm going to hold on to them either as I need to make room for more SG gear!
    1437754150893.jpg 1437754162350.jpg

    Finally for the mothers we have the BBxF35 mothers that's I also should get rid of as, again, I have rooted clones that I'm even considering tossing. Basically I gotta clean house but hate killing plants lol. On the left is the #1 pheno and the #2 pheno is on the right.
    1437754169543.jpg 1437754177163.jpg

    Moving on to the clones now, we have the Blue Widows that I'm considering scraping and holding onto the revegged mother. Ironically they were the strongest clones
    1437754665634.jpg

    Next for the clones is the BB x F35 clones. The left is the #1 pheno and the right is #2.
    1437754684506.jpg

    Finally for the clones we have the 2x DarkLords which are stuck in preflower but are slowly coming along out of it.
    1437755444612.jpg

    Finally for today's update we have Auto PDxA #2. This plant looks pretty rough and I'm sure I could do better. It started out as a side project for the flouro table but I was so impressed with the first one I decided to try and maximise this second plant. So despite being an Auto I Xplanted from 1gal to 3gal and tied it down to stick in my bottom LED chamber under the better light. Between the xplant , lst and more intense light with more specific spectrum I'm surprised the buds are forming as well as they are. Despite the apparent deficiencies the buds are putting on nice weight and is super sticky and crystaline just like the first one.
    1437756528069.jpg 1437756537385.jpg 1437756547235.jpg 1437756708286.jpg 1437756719866.jpg

    That's all from the lower chamber for this week! I'll be back on Monday with the upper chamber update at week 2 of flower!

    Peace & Love
    PyspherE
     
  5. Looking good i like the use of the bamboo
     
  6. Thanks brother! Had to get a little creative for tie down points on that Auto! The 3gal pot is just not wide enough to tie out the branches wide enough to keep them in check with such limited head room in the bottom chamber! I'm quite pleased with how well it worked and will likely be doing this again in the bottom chamber!

    Peace & Love
    PyspherE
     
  7. It's actually kinda crazy because the plant is strong enough to bend the bamboo stake as it grows! Not a huge bend, but its noticeable when handling the pot!
     
  8. They are resilient arnt they!
     
  9. Hey GC!

    I have my top chamber update for you! Everything is coming along nicely at week 2 or roughly day 14 since flowering started! This are starting to stack up pretty nicely! I've been trying really hard this grow to keep everything more open and the buds relatively equidistant from one another. So far I think I've managed it really well this go round and I'm hoping the results will reflect that! I also made the switch last night to the 250w HPS from the MH. Gunna run the HPS for 4-5 weeks through mid flower and finish the last 2weeks or so on MH again!
    1438016478942.jpg

    First up we have the #1 cutting of Blue Widow. Nicely spaced out and putting out nice little buds! The buds are already started to put out trichomes as well!
    1438016499758.jpg 1438016509160.jpg 1438016517434.jpg 1438016531866.jpg

    The #2 cutting of Blue Widow is looking just as nice and budding along as expected! She's stacking up pretty nice and has only had a little minor LST to space out the tops a little.
    1438016542682.jpg 1438016552792.jpg 1438016562953.jpg 1438016587803.jpg

    Finally the #3 Blue Widow cutting is doing well and coming along nicely. Pretty much the same as the other 2!
    1438016601810.jpg 1438017059578.jpg 1438017158412.jpg 1438017721597.jpg

    That's all from the top chamber for this week! I'll have the wed garden update ready for you in a couple days! I also found this kick ass mug that I picked up for $2 at the dollar store!
    1438016467934.jpg

  10. Hey GC!

    I finally have the Garden update now that the mobile application is working again! Everything is looking pretty good! Approaching the end of the season here!
    1438291616575.jpg 1438290340276.jpg

    Well start with the Thornless Dwarf Raspberry Bush.
    1438289337898.jpg

    Next we have the Marketmore 76 Cucumbers. I have already harvested one and have another 2 almost ready!
    1438289376681.jpg 1438289417047.jpg 1438289499296.jpg

    We have 2 nice sized Sugar Baby Watermelon forming! I had to give them some support as they are putting on some nice size now!
    1438289571960.jpg 1438289590343.jpg

    The triple veggie planter is doing quite well. The Strawberry has a bunch of stringers that I have e rerouted and started rooting in the same container. I hope I can preserve these over winter so they will regrow in the spring! The Beans are basically done and should be cut out soon!
    1438289733838.jpg

    The King of The North Bell Peppers are slowly putting on more size! They should start putting out some colour.
    1438289751571.jpg 1438289787285.jpg

    Finally for fruits and veggies we have the Dwarf Patio Tomato which should start blooming soon!
    1438289812595.jpg

    On to the ornamentals now we have the end planter with a bunch of blooming marigolds!
    1438289827239.jpg

    The triple flower planter is doing okay but as you can see is a little dry here!
    1438289846401.jpg

    The Ficus is also doing well and really should thin it out a bit soon!
    1438289877065.jpg

    Next up we have the Cyclamen which is getting nice and bushy.
    1438289891743.jpg

    In the terrarium we have the Ivy and the Neanthe Bella Palm. You can also make out the little Anoles near the top in the center and one of the tree frogs in the top right!
    1438289901916.jpg

    Under the garden table we have the single French Marigold with some nice vibrant yellow/orange flowers.
    1438290026512.jpg

    Next we have the bromeliad with its dying flower!
    1438290038145.jpg

    Followed by the 3x citrus seedlings which are growing nicely and the Begonia that is growing a couple nice new branches!
    1438290062320.jpg

    Finally we will conclude with the Ming Aralia which is looking pretty nice still!
    1438290249798.jpg

    I will be back tomorrow with the lower chamber update so long as the app is still working lol!

    Peace & Love

  11. Hey GC!

    I have the lower chamber and seedling update for you guys! This week is pretty sparse but I do have some good news! I culled a good 6-8plants this week to make room!

    This original revegged Blue Widow is the only mother that I kept. I just couldn't bring myself to cull her just yet!
    1438386068858.jpg

    I kept a few of the clones. Here we have a DarkLord on the left and Blue Widow Clone on the right that survived the massacre.
    1438385414565.jpg 1438385424783.jpg

    We also havmondayBBxF35 clones, #1 on the left and #2 on the right.
    1438385434900.jpg 1438385455416.jpg

    Next we have the Auto PDxA approaching the end! Another week or 2 and it will be chopped! It's looking nice and frosty and has a nice sour fuel smell to her similar to the last one I ran.
    1438385710132.jpg 1438385721404.jpg 1438385730630.jpg 1438385740791.jpg 1438385756510.jpg

    Finally we have the surprise. 11 days ago I dropped 10 Nocturnal seeds expecting nothing to pop but got 2 that cracked after 5days. I buried them in coco and one has broken the surface but with only one cotyledon but I'm confident she can pull through. 5 days after wetting the first seeds I dropped another 10 Nocturnal, this time I got 1 really strong bean that popped and broke coco really well, and another that cracked and is just peaking through the coco. So today I dropped my last 10 Nocturnal seeds and hopefully I get another couple.
    1438385818704.jpg 1438385832030.jpg

    That's all for this week! I'll see you all on monday with my week 4 flower update on the Blue Widows!

    Peace & Love
    PyspherE
     
  12. Hey GC! I have my Monday top chamber update for you! All of the Blue Widows are looking quite nice and coming along strong at week 4!
    1438609279021.jpg

    First up we have the Blue Widow #1 in its 2gal coco/perlite container. Its still getting the regular feedings of Ironh3ads formula and seems to be loving it!
    1438609286907.jpg 1438609295517.jpg 1438609311601.jpg 1438609323147.jpg

    Next we have the Blue Widow #2 looking strong as well. They are starting to get a little bushy for my liking again so I may need to take just a few more fans in another week or so.
    1438609336886.jpg 1438609348732.jpg 1438609361847.jpg 1438609380134.jpg

    The Blue Widow #3 looks nice as well and like the others is starting to develop its smell and is pumping out trichomes nicely!
    1438609393307.jpg 1438609406941.jpg 1438609425554.jpg 1438609437212.jpg

    On another note, my girlfreind has a hard time with insomnia in relation to some anxiety issues. The insomnia has been especially troublesome as her body "fights anything she takes" and she ends up going a week on just a handful of hours of sleep. Anyways, cannabis has been the one alternative that has generally provided her relief, a bowl before bed will get her a few hours or so of sleep but that doesn't always work depending on strain. Some strains amplify her anxiety and can have a counter productive effect. With that in mind I've been doing alot of research and edibles, from my research, when fully activated and decarbed and dosed appropriately, rarely has counter productive effects. With that in mind over the last 6 months since we got our little oil rig I've been collecting the reclaim for edibles. Now on to the point, I used 2.3 grams of reclaim and halfed the potency of badkats canna caps. I did a brief decarb on the reclaim but since it had been exposed to the nail already and was a nice amber I took it easy at 95*c instead of 115*c. Mixed it into the coconut oil and soy lechtin. Warmed briefly and capped in 00 gel caps. The first night she took a single dose and slept 8hrs, waking briefly just once. The second night she doubled up and was out for 12hrs straight. Last night we were back to a single dose and again she got a good 7 straight hours the night before a doctors appointment which is a big deal! I think these will be one of the staples around our place now!
    1438609269435.jpg

    Anyways that's all I have for today! I will be be back on wed with the garden table and balcony update!

    Peace & Love

  13. Happy to hear that's working for y'all! All of my APD has essentially turned out couch lock it's so potent. In fact, yesterday I had to pour a little Everclear into my rolling tray to do a qwiso wash to clean it up 'cause it was like trying to play with my weed on 80 grit sandpaper it had gotten so coated with kief. Still haven't gotten around to processing my trim, but the best, latest stuff has been all dried rather than fresh frozen. Plan is to do a run of caps without the soy, and a couple pounds at least of butter (GG) for some space cake or whatever.

  14. What's up, PyspherE? We just stalked each other on IG. Figured I'd introduce myself. ilovethisplant.
     
  15. Thanks for stopping by man! Always nice to see new faces! I'll have to swing by your thread!

  16. Hey guys!

    I'm back with the balcony and garden table update for this week! Things are looking nice and things are starting to ripen nicely!

    I'll start here with the Thornless Dwarf Raspberry Bush. Still pumping out berries and shooting up some new stocks for next season!
    1438804910656.jpg

    Next we have the Marketmore 76 Cucumbers that were recently harvested and most seem to be putting out some seconds yet so they are all still alive!
    1438804918019.jpg 1438804943479.jpg 1438804952977.jpg

    The Sugar Baby Watermelon are coming along nicely but have slowed their growth a little.
    1438804925837.jpg 1438804934508.jpg

    The triple veggie planter is now a double as the Provider Bush Beans all finished so I cut them out to give the Red Coat Strawberries and Sugar Daddy Snap Peas. You will also see to the right a small container I guided a Strawberry runner to so I can try and pass on this plant!
    1438804943479.jpg

    Followed by the King of the North Bell Peppers which are looking nice and starting to ripen to a nice orangy red!
    1438805859058.jpg 1438806037391.jpg

    Next up outside we have the Dwarf Patio Tomato that has just started putting out blooms so hopefully I we get some fruits soon!
    1438806057030.jpg

    On to the ornamentals, the triple planter was also reduced to a double planter as the Blushing Princess was at the end of the road. Now it's just the vine and the Butterfly Daisies!
    1438806068546.jpg

    Next we have the Cyclamen which is really nice and full and looking pretty!
    1438806083978.jpg

    The end planter with all the French Marigolds is also doing really nicely!
    1438806094491.jpg

    Moving inside now we have 3x Citrus Seedlings and the little Begonia.
    1438806106741.jpg

    On now to the Bromeliad. Still steadily dying out and waiting for the pups to get a little bigger before Xplanting!
    1438806140220.jpg

    We moved the Ficus back inside for no particular reason.
    1438806159456.jpg

    The Ming Aralia is starting to become clearly nitrogen starved so I need to either fertilise with some Gaia Green 4-4-4 organic slow release or to into a larger container but I'm not sure if I have room for that!
    1438806174890.jpg

    Finally in the terrarium the Ivy and Neathe Bella Palm are doing nicely still as well!
    1438806203217.jpg

    That's all from the balcony and garden table for this week! I'll be back on Friday with the lower chamber update!

    Peace & Love

  17. Nice bro ur peppers are starting to red up nicely mine have not yet still waiting. Got like a good dozen cucumbers hanging that are almost ready. Unreal how big it has gotten.

    You said in a previous post your season is pritty well done. Is that due to the angle of the sun and not hitting your balcony? I think i still have till late Oct to keep pulling veggies
     
  18. I guess its not over, but my Beans and Peas are done, I already pulled 4 cucumbers and any ones left are tiny so they may not finish in time. The Peppers are almost done and I will only get the 4 peppers off of them. The Watermelon are getting close and they will only fruit the once. The raspberries are fruiting there last can for the year it seems, but at least I see some new canes coming in for future years! The tomatoes are really just starting I suppose, but that's about the only thing that has much "action" left if you will.

    On the balcony I deal with frost way more than if I were in the ground. I also lose a good few hours of sunlight into sept so things really start to slow. On top of that my little ~3gal organic soil containers are pretty much burnt out at this point as well so I've had to top feed some Gaia Green All-Purpose 4-4-4 slow release organic fert. I hope to move to 5-7gal next year to get a little more out of the garden!

    Peace & Love
    PyspherE
     
  19. Right on man. Makes sence then
     
  20. What size pot so you have that raspberry bush in? That would be awesome to have! Your whole garden is amazing. It'd be cool to see what you'd do with some proper space!
