First grow ever using photo seeds I ordered online

bboyfromwayback Ooooooh, I see, so it's not for wet trimming. I think I'm understand better how it works. Thanks: good to know!!!

 

[bboyfromwayback]

No they have to be good and dry. First time I tried it using a branch I cut off to sample and the leaves were still dampish and I had to hand trim. Two days later I was able to trim each branch in about 2min! Gave each bud a good brushing (down strokes) then hand trimmed anything leftover which wasn’t much, small stem here and there. Your friend will enjoy it. I’m no salesman, I just know how bad trimming can be and I don’t have arthritis so that has to be much worse. But yea, I did 2 plants in a 50min TWD episode, did the other 4 the next night in no time. My eyes didn’t even get tired

bboyfromwayback Wow, 25 bucks!! I was thinking my friend would have to spend a few hundred for a decent trimmer, but this is the easiest of all. And their explanations make perfect sense: the brush "grabs the outer leaf, which is quite dry, and pulls it right off. It looks awesome. I'm impressed with the technology, tho the brush should cost 10 bucks... But my friend will gladly pay 25. I love trimming a lot, but I may have to get one, too.

Oh man that's a great smoke that dos si dos

These two Blue Cheese from Barney’s Farm started off deformed and sad looking . One sprouted with 3 leaves, the other kinda had 1.5 leaves and something else I’m not sure what growing from it. I should’ve took pics but I’m not real savvy in the picture department. Anyways I stuck with them because I paid money for the goofy lookin mf’ers and after 6wks of hardly any growth they kinda manifolded themselves for me. Other than pulling the colas apart to spread them out I haven’t done anything to either plant. They haven’t been topped once and one has 12 decent colas starting to get budlets all over them and the other has 8. I guess the moral of the story is even a ugly runt can grow up to be a pretty thing with proper tlc

I quadlined on dos si dos and mainlined the other just to experiment. Other than that they’ve been grown the exact same. Since switching to 12/12 the mainline has grown a lot taller but the quadline has gotten a lot bushier. I defoliated right before and the mainlined one is making me wish I’d taken less off. Those long, stretchy colas are looking bare now 🤷🏻‍♂️ At this point I’m betting the quadline produces more but we’ll see

 

[alltatup]

They sure are growing pretty! All we are saying: Give runts a chance.

 

[bboyfromwayback]

They may grow up and surprise you 😁

 

[bboyfromwayback]

17 days after the switch and all the plants have settled in except the Dos Si Dos. Both plants are still getting noticeably taller everyday. Next time I grow this strain I won’t defoliate nearly as much until after they’ve finished growing tall.

I got a long neck 1gal. water jug to reach way back there works great. Can wait to see them standing at attention in the net. They are going to be pretty thick in there, you got this

 

[alltatup]

They look really great, beatboy!!!

 

[bboyfromwayback]

Thanks! It’s been work lol I haven’t grown more than 2-3 at a time in years and I’m relearning why! I have this tent plus another that has 4 autos 7wks old and a banana kush I’m vegging with them 😵 luckily my wife tends to the moms we have

 

[bboyfromwayback]

They’ve all settled in and haven’t grown much taller the last couple of days. I built them all up to the same height under the light, placed screen and turned the dial up to 100%.

 

[bboyfromwayback]

2-3wks from harvest. Other than one of the Dos Si Dos having a issue and way more work/watering than I prefer this has been a fairly smooth grow considering I grew 4 strains I’ve never grown before in this tent, 4 autos in another tent with a Banana Kush vegging and 4 mother plants elsewhere in the house. Damn all I been doing is filling and mixing water jugs the last few months!!! Lots of new bud to try though👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Told the wife we smoking nothing but fatties for the foreseeable future 🤗

 

[alltatup]

Absolutely lovely buds, bboy!!

 

[bboyfromwayback]

Thank you! We have some fat ones in there 😋

 

[SoOrbudgal]

That's the way to do it real nice grow and great sticky looking buds. I tell the hubby same thing soon we will be smoking the fat gram doobies

 

[Mazzariman]

Awesome bboy! I been smoking nothing but fatties since the early 80's! Whenever someone rolls a pinner, I say, put that away, times must be tough, let's smoke one of mine.

 

[bboyfromwayback]

Yep lol I always roll joints the size of a cigarette. I’ve always grown 2-3 in a 2x4 tent so I kept them small and we’d get enough to have plenty to smoke until the next harvest. Between this tent and another one I’ve grown enough in the last 3 months to last us a couple years 😂

 

[JohnEmad]

I laugh when I think of the progression. First we smoked pin joints and saved the roaches. Then after a couple grows we roll em fatter and throw away the roaches that held far more weed then the pin joints did.
One fellow growers place I noticed maybe a hundred half smoked joints flicked off the end of their deck into the grass. Ahh the pleasures of excess.
