Hello everyone!!

[furrysparkle]

This is my official greeting to the community as I have been lurking around and merely reading debating whether it would be worth it to become more open and gain better insight into the growth of my precious wonders.

Anyway sorry about that got caught up in the moment. I'm rather new I started with one plant in some miracle gro dirt and a couple of CFLs turned out male. I was a little upset and started 6 others.

Those grew into 5 fem prolly blue dream and 1 that dudded. All started in rapid rooters and FF happy frog solo cups. After a few weeks placed under 150w HPS and transferred 3 of them to 3 gal smart pots with happy frog dyna gro foliage for veg until preflowers showed up.

Placed a scrog net to organize it as it flowered then took it down after 2 weeks. Using dynagro bloom at 1/2. Trained down and topped 2 of the of the big ones and daily defoliation to simulate animals. All mid-stem cuts and only low stems and >2" long fan leaves.

I believe it's working very well, I also haven't been able to ph any of my water due financial issues, they have been consistently growing 9< leaflets on each leaf.

Now the beginning of week 3 of flowering they are looking really good!

And some oddities with them: this stem grew flat.

Is that a radio you got in there? Please tell me im not the only one playing jazzy tunes to the girls Welcome and may your harvest be an awesome one!!!

[Tersky]

oh crap. That might be like my Sour Diesel freak! Polyploidism. I had a couple "flat" stems on that plant. also had an over abundance of sugar leaves on those budsites. check out my post http://forum.growweedeasy.com/forum/...-looking-plant. Looks similar though mine is farther along.

It would be awesome to see another of those, welcome mate happy growing

Welcome Furry! I lurked around for so long when I did finally start talking I forgot to throw out a greeting lol I thought I was already a part of the community!

Some great folks here.

[furrysparkle]

I know insomniaczzz seems like a fine bloke!
Ill be posting some updates onto this thread about things done to them hope to keep this very scientific so there's more helpfulness in the forum for people to gain an idea on the frequency of events that happen in each kind of grow

[Royal Nugs]

SHE sure is a fine... uhh blokette?

[rwdyredhead]

That's right! There's some Girl Power on here!

[furrysparkle]

I am indeed sorry haven't read enough of her posts to have guessed that

[furrysparkle]

Next I hope to begin in a dwc setup

[insomniaczzz]

Plants look great furry, and welcome!! Glad you came out of lurkdom. I think we can all learn from each other, from first time growers up to 30 years growers. Always something new to learn.

that's kina of funny.....you lurked so long you knew us all. Is that like eavesdropping??? Nah, just kidding.

[rwdyredhead]

I think it's called cyberstalking lol
I think this is the 1st place I've EVER posted on a forum honestly.
I'm a redneck girl so I spend most of my time outdoors but you guys were too tempting!

[Tika]

Welcome to a place that is worth it....glad you broke the shadow.

[furrysparkle]

Me too look at all the wonderful people replying to my thread!!

[PRIMO]

Welcome to the club. It looks kind of dark to me like you could use a little more horsepower in the light dept. Maybe more reflective surface/white paint? Anyway goodonya keep it up. Green'll be happy with her lanky good looks..... Peace out !

[bobsakamoto]

hi furry. i'm new to the forum too and just like you i lurked here *forever*. never EVER would've signed up if the information hadn't been SO good and the people so friendly and NICE.

anyway, i haven't posted about this stuff yet bc i'm still trying it out...but it might be of help to you in the light department for not very much $$$. i discovered this stuff called Reflectix at home depot. it's basically really hardy regular old bubble wrap with radiant barrier grade reflective "foil" on one or both sides of the bubble wrap (obviously the one sided stuff is a little cheaper than the two-sided but not by much, imo). anyway i've never seen a grow tent, only pictures, but what i bought looks exactly the same as the inside of the pics of grow tents but a LOT brighter. you buy it by the roll and it's pretty cheap per foot. it's really really flexible too so it makes it really easy to work with and to move around if you need to. for example, i'm using it to make a little room within a room right now during germination stage. i hope maybe that stuff might be affordable enough that it might be of some help to you.

Hi furrysparkle, great handle
Emergency/space blankets are a very affordable way to add some reflective surfaces. I bought a 12 pack for less than $10 on Amazon. I taped on to the back of an old black tablecloth I had threw it over some old shelves and voila ... a grow tent for under $10.

[DingusKhan]

I got that mega pack of space blankets too!

[Cracker08]

Just Pretty, so pretty!!

[Royal Nugs]

Welcome aboard the great cannabis carpet ride

Your plant is beautiful and that flat stem is really cool!

[furrysparkle]

I actually have 2-3 flat stems really odd.

[furrysparkle]

And thx royal for correcting me.

[Karlee]

[furrysparkle]

I hope to do so

[furrysparkle]

Wow I honestly was not expecting such a quick and wonderful response from the community it is quite heartwarming!

[cptcaveman1958]

Nice .Do you have them in a tent or box to help contain the light?

[furrysparkle]

No just in a small study room I should have a tent in a couple of grows.
