Man did these girls like their new hairdo! They look like cactus and normally they are on the verge of needing water and a bit droopy, not much. I’ve got some compost tea thats ready.

Did my first defoliation today.

The plant in the back RIGHT of this photo has so MANY bud places. I just took clones from my mother of the same strain but don’t really know if she produces buds like this one. The mother was the best looking and proportioned when I removed her. How good of a chance will clones do if taken...

My wife had a nice lazy Susan made of wood with ball bearings man did that help. I took off all the 5 finger leaves accept the top couple an each large branch. I took off the largest of the 3 finger leaves. I filled a plastic grocery sack full of them! I couldn’t believe how many there...

1st grow and the only defoliating I’ve done at all was to remove huge leaves covering anything up high to this point a little at a time or removing dying leaves. I’ve not defoliating up the middle, down low or done any LST. Is it too late at 18 days into flowering to defoliate to this...

SUNDAY, 17 JAN 2021 I gave them a watering of compost tea yesterday. I’ve started a regiment of watering with ph adjusted water, 6.00, compost tea now. They are really greening up again after going a bit yellow with the 12/12 flip, increased light and lowering of rh/temp on the 1st. I think...

I like my Pennywise and have read great things about Cannatonic and what do you know someone crossed the two. https://www.seedsman.com/en/dead-lights-cbd-regular-seeds Anyone grown this?

Bonsai Mother The basic structure and front are determined. In a few weeks I’ll begin the gradual reduction of pot size.

I gotta say, this LEDTonic Z5 light in my 3x2x3.5 Propagator tent, set on blue switch only, has been amazing for the mother, the basil and African Violet. The mother is dark, rich green top to bottom, the basil has leaves as big as my hand and the AV has 4 new flower buds popping up out from...

OK that’s done. Notes The cutting have been soaking in a light dilution of the liquid B1/hormone concentrate (blue pitcher) the moment they are cut from the plant. This prevent air bubble going up the trunk (just like humans and shots). The lowest branches removed, trunk cut again at a 45...

I’m soaking the long cuttings in the Hormex liquid (1 tsp gal) until I know where to cut them. The mother has been to the beauty parlor and is more manageable now. I’ll trim some more once I know the cuttings root.

Bonsai Mother - Pennywise I’m taking my mother down in size a little at a time. With bonsai I learned the slower the better (maybe weed is different?). I’m taking the top down 4 branches today and cloning the 4 tips. How many nodes down do I make the cut? My end goal is to leave the first...

These are my sticky traps in the mother tent and a photo from a government site. I haven’t seen but a few adults left. I’m sure the nematodes have done their job. I’ll put the rest in soon.

I used my new microscope. I was wondering if I would be able to see the nematodes so I put one of the pellets in a few drops of water in a dark black lid. These are the photographs after the water dried up.

I picked up a bunch of these used barrels last summer from a guy on Craigslist. If you’ve ever priced a food grade barrel you’ll know at $20 each it was a good deal. They held bulk grains. Just under 30 gallons, flip up handles that lock and a screw top lid with gaskets. I have the one...

This VIDEO best explains how the valve works. It’s even dishwasher safe! LOL

For my next grow I’ve found the automated gravity fed watering system I’m going with. I contacted the US Autopot dealer to see if their system was adaptable and it is. So far this feels like the better option. With their recommended one aquavalve per 4x4 area, and my 5x5 tent, I would...

Nice cubes! From the Hormex home page; Recommends #8 or #16 for cannabis DIRECTIONS: As quickly as possible, make cuttings, dip in Hormex Rooting Powder, and plant in your preferred grow medium. Moisten base of cutting with clean water or quickly dip in Hormex Vitamin B1 and Hormone...

Being my first grow I didn’t fully understand the nutrient needs when I started 01 October. I planted in 3 gallons of plain organic soil, some weeks later I found out about Nature’s Living Soil and moved the content to 7 gallon pots surrounded by NLS mix (hindsight: I should have done...
