Just a quick update today, no more spots on any leaves today!. Cola's on top are really starting to form! I Photoshoped the color correction and zoomed in on the photos.
I did not get photos of the clones today, but one of the clones is starting to bush up and I am sure it is going to grow now. I am going to play with these clones espicaly since when I plant the 2 mom plants, I have to take out 2 of them to keep to 12 plants. Then with my Jack Herer seeds show up and get going I have to take down 5 more clones.
I also decided instead of getting a 3rd tent, I will build a room under my stairs for the mom's. I have started a grow journal for the Mom grow I am going to do Bonzi Mom's and build their room as a Mom's Spa. I quit drinking this past Wed and am 4 days sober (did not realize how much alcohol was messing with my buzz and I have so much more time, when I don't pass out at 9pm). I will have lots of time to love and grow and shape them! This hobby just keeps getting better!

Well i get off work in 14 min, can't wait to get home to play with the girls and I am going to start building a spa for the Mom's to eventually hang out. I also started a YouTube channel today so maybe as I get further along I will start taking some videos of my grow specifically the Auto's I will be starting.

I don't know where you work, but I would be very careful as to what I research while on the job.
IT folks are known to set filters for certain words and you don't need a meeting with your manager and HR.

I am certified IT professional and your job's IT people see everything you do and can report it to Human Resources or Personnel depts. Everything you do online and every telephone call is recorded no matter what by NSA No Such Agency or others. See, James Bamford's 'The Puzzle Palace'. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Puzzle_Palace 1982.
Mostly, sites that companies don't want employees visiting are like porn sites or shopping or Facebook and Twitter. If it isn't blocked then they probably aren't aware of it. With legal MMJ in so many states now, it isn't as big a deal is it used to be. But, as I say that, even in CO almost all jobs drug test and are not at all cool about MMJ or any herb for the most part, unless you work at a dispensary or small private owned business that is cool about herb which are rare.

I know at AT&T we monitor everything data and voice, that was one of the reasons I always had two laptops with me, one for company use and the other for personal use, which I connected using a hotspot through T-Mobile, I didn't want, nor did I need my employer knowing what I was doing online.

Well I had a extremely busy weekend from the time I got home Saturday untill 11pm Sunday I worked off and on on cleaning up rearranging everything in the Laundry/Grow room, I actually set it up as a small office 2 adding a computer with a aux 2nd monitor, Polk audio speakers with sub, I will put photos of that setup later, I thought I took a photo of the setup. It is amazing how much you can get done when you are not drunk all the time. Girls are doing very well, they had a bath again, I mixed up some cal-mag, molasses, maxi-bloom, kool-bloom and soaked them each for 10min added a bit more dirt to the top. THey are very root bound by now in 3 gal pots, wish i had transplanted before flowering.
I am not going to update on the mother plants I am growing have another journal/tread started for those. I am just going to update progress on the two from my first grow. Here is the link to my mother bonsai grow.
https://forum.growweedeasy.com/foru...advice-on-first-attempt-to-grow-mother-plants
I did have 2 of the clones I got from a friend had buds on top the are very small so I just put them in the flowering tent anyway and see what they do. I have to get rid of several plants to keep to 12 when the Auto's come anyway.

Not much going on, today I did some more defloration at lunch but did not have time to take pictures. The buds are developing, I am the middle of week 6 of flowering. They are taking a lot of water about a gallon every other day.
The others in my veg tent are doing well too. 2 of the Clones are going to grow. It should be interesting. I am going to veg them for a very long time. My Jack Here Auto's should be here any day now. I am going to plant those as soon as they come. Even if the two from my first grow keep going slow, there will initially be room in the flower tent if I have to move them.
Time to frame in the new room. I figured out last night how to make the room even bigger so I will have a veg room very large under the stairs and will move my veg tent into that room and probably keep the moms in that tent and the Veging plants in the room I build. I also disconnected the duct work from my fan in the veg tent and have been venting that tent to my laundry room, it is keeping it warmer in the basement and no smell from the veg tent really. Plus any air in that room gets sucked out by the Flower tent with a vortex fan and charchole filter. I went back and read my early post, amazing what I have learned from this site mainly and lots of others, but this site has by far the best information and users out there.
Happy growing everyone.

Check out a few of my grow journals if you like data. I started growing about a year ago for the exact same reason, needed a hobby. I'm obsessed with timelapsing too. I post most of my video and timelapse stuff to my Instagram (@farmerjim420) if you're on IG check out the #wewatchgrassgrow
Loved your intro and about to catch up on the rest of the thread... just couldn't wa ait to greet a fellow self proclaimed (weed)nerd

I love that fastbuds thread... they're having a great sale right now by the way. On seedsman.com, if you select the 5 packs for any fastbuds auto strain they give you 5 more for free. I got 21 free seeds with my order and have some blue dream, green crack, and cream cookies autos on their way 🙌🙌
Take a peek at their stuff, let's get our own fastbuds grow thread started lol

It is really handy, the other day I accidentally unplugged the exhaust fan in my veg tent, and a hour later, i check the app and it was almost 90 in the tent, went checked and turned back on and got temps back down. I also move it back and forth between the 2 tents, I really don't need it in the flower tent anymore. I have it dialed in with the exhaust to keep very constant temps. You can look back any time frame as well. When I first started temps and rh were all over the place and over a few weeks got it dialed good. Eventually will get another one. Then can monitor all the time. I also have a WYSE camera in the Laundry Room for security and one in the tent with a time-lapse of the whole grow.

I did look at their stuff, I am not ordering anymore seeds, untill I need them. I intend to keep 2 mothers of the Gelato and Strawberry Banana I am growing after I do a run of Auto's, If I really get into this, I could grow for medical patients and for each one grow their 12, but I don't have the space in my house with 4 kids and a girlfriend. I saw the add for fastbuds on that other site that creates a diary. Don't want to prompt other sites...... Well time to smoke and get to bed. I will be happy to participate in any threads!

The girls are doing well, I am still getting some new growth and I am nearing the end of week 6 of flowering, I am starting to play with the one long clone that is doing well, it's going to have 3 main shoots coming off it. Should be interesting the other one that is doing well I plan to top it when it gets 5 nodes. I am glad that I had the opportunity to have something else growing or this part of the grow is kind of boring. This weekend I plan to start lining the area under the stairs and maybe even frame in the part I have to enclose.
My buddy who gave me the clones plants are really looking good, he doesn't remember what it was but he buys good bud. His plants are a bit a head of mine, so if it is really good bud, I can give him clones off his clones! Plus should have some more stuff going.
Well, 2 glasses of Sleepy time tea and several hits on the vap, I think I am ready for bed.

Well, only on first glass of sleepy time tea now, it was date night so did not get to do much this evening. But awesome surprise in mail my Jack Herer Auto's showed up. Im going to start 4 tomorrow when I am not so tired. I will just keep updating this thread rather than start a new one for each grow, if you want to follow my learning and weigh in any time I sure appreciate all the help on this site.
The 2 from my first grow are still budding, nothing new. the 2 clones that I put in there have doubled in size since going in. My other 2 clones that are doing well look great. But I will have to thin the heard to keep leagel so the 4 weakest have to go when Jack comes to town!
The 2 Strawberry Banana seedlings are struggling to get going but I am confident in them after them splitting up. The Gelato seedling looks good. They have a good long veg cycle to go till Jack finishes!
Tomorrow and Sunday I am going to build the walls for the new veg/mom room. I also have to find a door to put in.
Oh I am also trying to make coconut oil to fill some capsules, I only had .25 oz of vape so i reduced the recipe figured worth a try. Have about 30 min left to cook. I am sure there are 1000 more, but it was quick and wanted some.
Also a bud who is a pro grower in CO, let me sample some of what he grows for his wife, Its pictured below, it is called Wild Animal Cookies and Mandarin Cookies his own strain. I rolled one and could barley finish half, I am feeling great tonight!
This is the recipe I followed for the oil

Time to post and go stir. Good night.

Well, no post for several days? I have been busy. I am building a veg room and have been working non-stop for the least 3 days. Got most of it framed in and almost all warped in plastic. Tonight I plan to finish sealing the room up and hopefully put the vynal floor down. Then will paint the tiles white. I found some really cheap sticy tiles at Family Dollar. It was way cheaper to buy these and paint than buying white vynal or tiles.
Yesterday besides building the walls all day, I gave the 2 girls a bath, I PH'd the water to 6.5 and dunked them, runoff was 5.2 and then I soaked and drained them again PH was up to 6 on the runoff, then I gave them nutes and some molasses. While they were draining, I cleaned the tent top to bottom, not sure how it gets so dirty, but every thing in the flower tent is doing great, I keep having to pull the taller cola's down to the side, they keep growing up. But the one plant on the left is getting a big main on it. the others are looking great too.
The two clones in the flower room are growing but the one in the front has some really strange growth on top. Anyone know what that is. They have had a rough life, being exposed to -19 degree temps and then getting planted. They were flowering when the clones were taken and these two seemed to be flowering so I put them in the flower tent. Either way with my 3 Photos going now and I just planted 2 Auto's even if they don't make much it doesn't matter now I have plenty to work with growing.

Not much to report on the 2 big girls, the buds continue to grow. They are starting to smell a good bit now. The two clones in the flower tent continue to stretch, still don't know about the growth on one, but it doesn't matter what they do. The other two clones that are vegging now are going quite well, after topping them the other day, I used some wire to tie them down and turn them a bit more. I am starting to think that I may play with one to make a Bonsai Mom out of that one. I am going to have 2 main cola's off this one clone and it might be fun to train it.
I got a lot more of the plastic sealed and ordered some Panda film for the walls. I still have to figure out the door, I may do a sliding door to save space in the room.
