hello hello my name is mastrshake and im kinda new to GC, been a lurker for a while, i must admit, and am now getting around to being motivated enough to post daily, lol... but hopefully you guys wont mind helping thru my first REAL growing trials (tried once before, got to first day of flowering and she died cuz i left a fan on at night and the cold temps made her SHRIVEL) the jist: -150w HPS -4' x 10' space -all bagseed, two 1 1/2 month olds in hempys, a 3 week old in soil -fox farm grow big is my only nutes right now (will buy FF flowering nutes when time comes unless im conviced to go to something like AN by then) -stand temp in the room away from the plants is 72 during the day, unknown at night (i think its around 65?) -i dont know the temps around the plants, i have a shitty thermometer that hangs off in the corner sorry but i will post pics by wednesday, i can't take pictures whenever i please for i do not live where i grow.. it works out for a paranoid person like me ...now the boring details for the people who are actually interested: so anyways we (me and my pal) are into our grow for about a month and a half now, we were too stoned and dumb to keep a date, but i remember it was the beginning of august when we started the first set of seeds, but after all the B.s. were down to three plants, the two oldest and biggest in hempy buckets, with another about two-three weeks old in some crappy top soil from my neighbors, i got it for free, figured i would try it with herb and out of four plants, this is the only one thats not all retarded, mutated, and burnt, lol.. they are all bagseed, but the seeds were all from fire bud, we dont save seeds from the shitty bud that we rarely come across, but i still cant wait to get some from attitude or somewhere.. oh and did i forget to mention we can create whatever size space we need because were growing underneath the house? haha yeah its pretty sick ill measure out the size we have the room at now when ever i take pictures within the next couple days, but theres a small door and when you open it theres all the space underneath the house (where the dirt and structure is underneath the floorboards) and theres two different levels of dirt, meaning we can choose to make the flower room like 4 feet from dirt-floorboard (where it is now) or move it down to where the space is like 6-7 feet from dirt-floorboard, its a pretty cool space to mess with. i do research every day and have been for the past year, i have decided it was time to quit fooling around and get down to some real growing. we plan on waiting for the two biggest to preflowers, then start taking clones with an aerocloner (or should i do bubble? im still open to anything and everything) taking 8 clones every two weeks, picking the best four once they have roots, veg for two weeks, then move into flower, then flower flower flower for ten weeks, cut down and cure. i will really love any help/comments along the way so thanks GC!! i owe it all to you! Peace! -Mastr
this one is called aqua because as a baby she was said to be dead, so we threw her in this bottle of water, about 5 days later i randomly came across the bottle with a pretty nice looking plant inside! a month later, i think she's sativa.. here she is: here's her sister who was planted same day, def an indica im sure both suffered from overwatering and slight overnute..sorry guys Stem Soil (two weeks old): And the whole group plus shots to give you an idea of what my growroom is like and how i can always adjust size, pretty easily
shit, no one likes my grow? eh who cares, im gonna transplant with my next check, start flowering and then take some clones as soon as they show sex and hope i can make some good clones lol. i might be having problems with cold temps but got that fixed today with a space heater i'll post pics in 2-3 days Cheers!
well i transplanted all of them into bigger pots with FFOF (fox farms ocean forest) and put them into flowering, they have been in flowering for 2 days so far, so i'll hopefully post pics tomorow of day three. they were transplanted like so little soil guy --- 2 gallon bucket Aqua -------- 3 gallon bucket indica ------- 4 gallon bucket
Looks good I think your just in the wrong section thats all. But the plants look healthy. You will probobaly get alot more hits if you were to move this journa to the indoor growing section. Its mostly hydro grows here in the advanced section. Your plants are going to like the extra space for roots for sure so keep up the good work.
yeah my bad dude, it was just here at first because i was doing the hempy buckets which is passive hydro but then decided to switch over to soil.. i'll see about getting it moved.
lol I wouldn't loose any sleep over it I just think you will get alot more response over there Im not knocking soil I grew in it alot just give those gals everything they need and you will have some really nice ladys.
so i will hopefully post some pics tomorow of the plants in day 4 of flowering, i will be a making a bubble cloner with parts around the house until i have money to buy a stronger pump to make an aerocloner. so i basically transplanted then threw the plants into flowering that night, its been 3 days, as soon as they show sex i want to take 2-4 clones from each female, hoping to find a Mother peace yall i'll leave you with my most favorite episode of Aqua teen hunger force..... HAND BANANA!!!! i swear its the fuckin best! Aqua Teen Hunger Force - Hand Banana Video
so i went to check on plants today but forgot my camera! hopefully i'll snap a couple shots tomorow but they look great, i got a max/min indoor/outdoor and humidity thermometer and the temps are at 73 when the space heater is off, but i have this space heater that heats the room up to 81 degrees then turns off, and is never on for more than 10-15 minutes, then doesn't come on for up to an hour. i was in there for an hour and a half and it came on and off twice so the readings are: Max temp: 81.2 degrees F Temp at plants w/ heater off: 73.5 degrees Min (night): 62 degrees (is this bad?!?! i'll go do more research) Humidity: Max: 62% Min: 42% (are these bad too? more research!) well catch up with you guys tomorow! Peace! -mastr
FoxFarms Ocean Forest, i get it at my local hydro store for $15 a cubic ft. and this stuff is the BEST i cant wait to post pics to show how much BETTER they look, i insist every organic/soil grower who isn't using their own organic solution, BUY SOME FOX FARMS OCEAN FOREST!!! the really cool thing is for the first month of whatever plant you throw in, you dont have to feed nutes because there's so much organic stuff in the soil already (bat guano, fish emulsion, worm castings) but trust me, your plants will look so beautiful if you use this soil. that and your shit will be the best tasting shit on the block!
great grow man just contact an admin or moderator on here n ask then to move it ull get a lot more support and a lot more people ejoyin ur grow. thats sweet u got a lot of room under ur house and be sure do not tell anyone about your grow and tell ur buddy cause thats the only way ull get fucked. good luck with the grow.
it already is moved... thanks tho dude! and don't worry i'm the type of person where i wouldn't grow with this guy if he was gonna rat, WE'VE BEEN THRU SOME SHIT that's all im gonna say. that and we know how to use our heads haha...
FLOWERING DAY 11: (but the pics are from Day 8) so we dont have internet at the house so i can update pics only once a week, sometimes twice. so i fixed the temps and everything by plugging the heater into a 24/7 plug TEMPS: Max: 82.1 Min: 70.3 Humidity: High: 58% Low: 47% here are the pics: Aqua: this is the internode spacing just starting on some of the branches: The Indica: (I think she's a HE let's hope not!!) The Little one (i think it could be orange krush if i remember) GROUP SHOT: Well i'll leave it at that, i'll hopefully have pics by the 11th! take it easy -mastr
OMG!! i went in today and it turns out both aqua and the indica are fuckin males! im gonna grow out aqua so i can post a pic to help people out on what the bananas look like. god i hate males.... so unless the orange krush pulls thru as female, i have no bud until i order som femmed seeds, i wanna try white widow, any vendor suggestions?? im fuckin tired of males...
ok so the orange krush turned out to be female and is in the start of the 2nd week of flowering, like i said its hard to get on the internet so i'll try and post some pics tomorow there has been lots of changes! we had a fight with a fuck head room-mate of ours so the plants got moved into a closet of the upstairs room. temps were fine until we got reflective stuff for the wall and put up a sheet of black plastic with reflective shit on it against the door to block out heat, we just roll up the plastic but it's made it hotter in there, at times it can hit 87-90! so were gonna cut a hole into the attic for exhaust and shit.
Flowering Day 11: nothing but pics. all im gonna say is: new room we also might come up on some really swell trainwreck clones see! i told you i'd have a perpetual eventually! as for now i have this sexy little bitch! pics are crappy thanks to cell phones! top nug: the new room we had to move her into: and the two clones we took off of her at day 1 flowering peace all -mastr
