Only 3 out of 4 beans have sunk. 4th is floating just below the surface - a dud maybe? Well wanted to give it a fair shake of the stick so put it into jiffy in any case! Will keep them moist over the next few days. Expecting to see my gals in about 5/6 days - hold thumbs! Seeing as there's only 4? I've named them: #1 = Eve(1st female); #2 = Enid; #3 = Evelyn; #4 = Ethel Will upload some pictures tonight!

I know the pic's are poor - will work on it!! I promise! Last Major post till next week! on the Blacberry till then! Keep Toking - and remember "puff, puff pass"
Keeping them moist and sitting on my hands. Can't wait to have something to watch! The jiffy's just sit there like mud! Any comments so far?
Well 5 days and nothing! My bag seed experiments took 5 days. It has been a little colder, maybe therefore a little slower? When do I start to panic and curse the seedbank? Maybe around day 8/9? Positive vibes - tomorrow my gals are gonna put in appearance! Damn, this is an excercise in patience!
First signs of life yesterday morning(13/6) Enid(#2 - yellow) just breaking the surface. Evelyn(#3 - blue) making appearance this morning 14/6 Eve seems very slow out the starting blocks, not holding much hope for Ethel(that didn't sink) Hope I can put them into final 20l containers on sunday! Finaly have something to watch! Will take some pics and upload sometime this week-end. Watch this space
Right monday morning(17/6/13) placed all 3 Enid(#2 - yellow 6 days), Evelyn(#3 - blue 7 days) and Ethel(That didn't sink)(#4 - red 8 days) into final 20l containers. Eve(#1 - green ????) has shown no signs of life - almost ready to give up on her - soaked her well and placed with others under 400w hps. Placed plants into final 20l containers, mixed 1l h2o and 4 drops bio-roots, each plant got 250ml of mixture around stem and immediate vicinity to meld soils together. Will wait for them to totally dry out before next watering
Yesterday was day 3. Looking healthy, has been under 24/24 lights. According to moisture meter can go till friday(day 5) before next watering. Getting daily spritz of seltzer water directly onto leaves and 18/6 from today. Will water well(300 ml) with seltzer water on friday. Will measure plants today( in cm's) and post pics over the week-end. Final move to cabinet on monday morning!
Doesn't need watering yet! 5 day's, looking good, very healthy. Stretching slightly 'cause I raised the light, believe this is desired in auto's? Can't wait to see effect of led!! Upload some more news and pics tomorrow...
Congratulations to the Springboks! Well done on a world class performance and winning the Castle incoming series - South africa 56 Manu Samoa 23
Been away for awhile. at day 15 I still hadn't watered! Talk about low maintenance! Moisture meter is on 5.5(3 being begining of dry). should be ready for 1st feed on friday(day 19) looking really healthy and strong. at home day 15 Enid day 15 Ethel day 15 Evelyn day 15 Gonna leave Evelyn(#2) to grow out naturally(control plant), Enid(#1) i will bend back using lst and Ethel(#3) will be curled around pot and onto cone. Very interested to see the differences if any in yield. Second grow will be scrogged.
Woohoo! My Bubblelicious beans have arrived!! Thank you Nirvana! Took 5 weeks but rather late than never. Can't wait for 2nd run. Gonna scrog these babies
Day 19! Looking good, growing like weeds!(lol)! First feed since planting, moisture meter started getting to dry, 150ml per plant veg muti(2l h20, 3 drops bio-roots, 1ml kelpac, 1ml amino mix, 1ml fulvic acid,1ml biogrow, 1ml fish mix) will keep eye on moisture meter, reckon next feed 8 - 10 days(veg muti). Started training - 3 methods: 1) Enid(#1) - Low Stress Training - Highest grow point tied back with wool and rubber bands 2)Evelyn(#2) - Natural growth - trimming of excess sun leaves(control plant) 3)Ethel(#3) - Spiral growth - Run flat and spiral around cone - paper clips and chicken mesh cone want to see which gives best yield for future referance!! At home day 19 Enid day 19 Ethel day 19 Evelyn day 19 Enid day 19 top view Enid day 19 LST side Enid day 19 LST top Evelyn day 19 natural Ethel day 19 spiral 1 Ethel day 19 spiral 2 The Witches Brew!
Day 25 looking really good! By far the best herb I've seen(only grown bag seed, but still) not a spot on the leaves(Muti was just right!) All leaves pointing up towards light, super impressed with 357Magled, definately an investment. Perhaps the best money I've spent in yonks. 7 days since last feed, definately using more moisture, meter reads 5. will water with 200ml seltzer direct to roots on tuesday(day29). Starting to develope at junctures, should start showing sex in the next week. Cream of the crop reckon 45-50 days - "Pipe dream" I reckon between 60 - 75 days! Not in a hurry! will harvest when they're ready and will know exactly on the second run of this strain. Super impressed though! What you think? Still waiting on estimated yield? Any response appreciated!
My Bullterrier ate 2 of my 3 plants! Can't believe it! Heard of murphys law? Meet Mad Mike Murphy!! Started propogating next batch: 2 x Bubblelicious auto fem 1 x Pineapple express autofem 1 x N.lights x Bigbud autofem 1 x blue venom regular fem And then obviously the 1 remaining Amphetamine. LST with wool, definately seems the way to go. Enid has 12 bud sites! Will try to update with pics over weekend.
Have had a hell of a time of it! The led light(357 Magnum - Growperfect Technologies) that I've been raving about packed up on day 30!! Immediately contacted supplier, counting on my "3 year bumper to bumper warranty" After numerous e-mails with no satisfactory reply I ended up phoning them! They say it's power supply and they have mailed me replacement parts, They however cannot give me a tracking no.? Bitterly dissappointed, don't believe them!!! STAY AWAY FROM GROW PERFECT TECHNOLOGIES!!!!! Moved plants into shed under 400w hps.

Finished pruning and tidying up, put them out in sun to take pics, busy doing pruning and lst on Enid and when I turned around it was too late! So pissed off with myself! What else can possibly go wrong? Perhaps I shouldn't tempt fate! Light has been repaired($100.00 out of my pocket) and will be returned to cabinet along with Enid on tuesday. Started to propagate the next round! 2 x Nirvana Bubblelicious autofem 1 x G13 Pineapple Express autofem(Freebie) 1 x World of seeds Northern Light x BigBud autofem(freebie) 1 x G13 Blue Venom regularfem(freebie) Place for 7 pots in cabinet, if I apply lst they all should receive sufficient light!(go big or go home) The minute I harvest the 1st Amphetamine I will add 2 Dinafem Critical +2.0. I will then have a bit of a spread and will determine wich is best strain to do a complete run! Chalking it up as school fees and experience! Can only get easier!
