Let's Grow Some Super Skunk!!!!!!

[Mazzariman]

Right allatup, just before it took flying lessons! It was totally worth it, after what I went through to dig the hole, haul the soil and haul water twice a day by buckets from the river. Once at 4:00 am and then at 9:00 pm. I learned to try and never put any undeclared plants into the ground. I use containers nowadays and follow the same principle. Hate wasting time, materials etc. Thanks for commenting!

Mazzariman I feel you! I pulled three plants (I grow indoors in 2 hydro grow boxes) because I knew, deep down in my heart, that they would stay runty and unfrosty. It always hurts me to toss a plant, tho I never threw one over a cliff. It's kinda fitting for a hermie... ;-}

 

[Mazzariman]

Yup, it was so spontaneous it was hysterical. I just grabbed the trunk at the base, jerked it out and tossed. It was already flying over when the dirt hit me. That was back when we were dealing with CAMP and Ronnie's Raiders right before the ACLU stepped in and started monitoring their behavior! Smoked so much Purple Kush Indica and Afghani Indica, that my poop smelled like skunk! Had a Chinook come up over the ridge that year while I was harvesting, first I heard this ungodly noise, grabbed my hefty bag full of branches and put it behind me and forced my way into a bush, pulled it around me just as it crested the ridge and was right over me. 100-150 feet off the ground. Bay door open and dudes with machine guns looking for someone kinda like me! They just flew right down along the Eel River. Amazingly I didn't soil myself. Outlaws in Babylon we were. Sure ain't like nowadays for the outdoor grower, but I still get frisky when choppers are flying over my house!

Yeah she's a trying.

Week 2 for M1, M2, and M3. M1 has some inter node branching, a lot more than M2 and M3 and I treat all 3 plants the same and wait till they're thirsty to water them. M1 is just way ahead. I can clone M2 but I want to wait till I can clone F1 and all 3 M's together in maybe 2 more weeks. The right middle is M1 side view and bottom left to right is M2 and M3 side view.

This is my dehumidifier I bought from lowes and it works great even with my window open and a fan blowing 24/7 venting air inside my grow room where my 2 tents are, my tents RH is also 60%. I use the condensed water to water my plants. The condensed water's Ph is 7.03 and the TDS-3 meter reads 016 which is a hell of a lot cleaner than tap water but I use just 1 drop of ph down and sometimes that's too much especially if you just ph the plain water.

And my rooting powder, I get 100% clones with this. In my last grow I cloned 6 clones and kept 4 just to find out they were all male. Maybe I should've kept the pollen because the plants had a heavy mint smell but I tossed them.

Beautiful!! How's the runt doing??

 

[alltatup]

Mariojuana This came up on the forum before: it's not a good idea to use the dehumidifier water, which can contain lots of bad stuff. My dehumid. gets very gunky in the reservoir and I clean it with H2O2 periodically.

 

[Mazzariman]

Right, we're pulling for her not to be pulled! Or as John and Yoko sang, Give runts a chance! Peace and Peas work to.

Very healthy looking plants

 

[Mariojuana]

So I saw someone's research that I googled and If you clean the condensation bucket regularly like once a week with anti-bacterial soap then the water is as clean as distilled or RO water. But the plants love it and you got to keep the filter clean also. I'll let you be the judge on how the plants look this Wednesday's update for F1 and M1,2, and 3 on Saturday.

 

[Mariojuana]

This is an update on little F2, she is barely an inch tall and will be 2 weeks old on Wednesday 07-22-2020. She hasn't even drank hardly any water from when I first watered her when I planted her as a seed sprout. Which means I haven't watered her in nearly 2 weeks and her medium is still wet as you can see in the picture. The others have been watered 3 times already and are monstrous compared to her. I bet her root system is dysfunctional and just about nonexistent. We'll see in 2 more weeks but she is definitely the runt of the litter.

 

[Mariojuana]

Thanks and yes the runt get's a chance and I have updated on how she's doing.

 

[Mazzariman]

Beware the runt. Maybe she wants to be outdoors. Looks like she's coming around nicely though. So cute. I know what I'd do, but with no idea of your situation and area etc., I won't advise on that. I have no experience with the associated indoor soils/mediums, watering and feeding schedules. Most others here do. Hope they have viable options for this one. With a fighting chance she just might surprise you.

 

[alltatup]

Mariojuana Now that's different: I completely agree if you keep the bucket clean. Someone had problems with the dehumifier water because of all the gunk in its reservoir. Right on!!!

 

[Mariojuana]

F2 is now 2 weeks old and I have figured what to do with her. I've taken some clones and when they finally have roots I'll start her in bloom with them to not only see gender but to finish them also. So F2 will go full cycle unless it's a male, then it dies.

 

[Mariojuana]

F1 is 3 weeks old and M1, 2, and 3 are 3 weeks old also so I jumped and cut clones off of them.

I put my root powder in a pill bottle to keep the rest that I don't use fresh.

 

[Mariojuana]

This is the clone aftermath and the medium was bone dry so I guess they're root bound. Now I will water them every other day to keep the roots healthy until the sexual identity reveal.

 

[Mariojuana]

So here's the clone lineup and all labeled according to corresponding parent for easy reference. I hope they're all female but if there's a male I hope it's super bushy, smells strong, and has a lot of pollen sacks and then I'll keep the pollen but if not I'll toss it. So this concludes my posts for 5 days and I'll let these plants recover and then I'll post how the clones are doing.
