Should I be starting my next seeds, to veg while these finish?

[Puglover1]

Farmbuck we mesh there. The landraces are getting harder to find. I'm old school, if it works it doesn't need to smell or taste like food, or be called food names. I bought a s/s pollen press but haven't loaded it yet. I need my old school ceramic hash pipe back. I think you'd like Mag. Hopefully it'll make a nice disc or two of hashish, I need to weigh the kief but my scale needs batts.

I worked on the plants then watered and fed them with everything except pH up. When I took them off the shelf and onto the floor the cat snuck under the bed and was peaking out from behind me. I think he thought I laid out a smorgasbord for him, honestly. I'm happy that I used the hooks again to pull the stubby bud branches outward, I cleaned out dead sugars, and recently dead small finger leaves that would've rotted. Must've had steady hands bc I cut off any ugly leaves that were expendable, some that were covering buds, and some more dead inners, without cutting off anything good. Laid the topped branches of Chewy back down bc a couple of the new shorter stems/buds were starting to get confused, they need to orient toward the light for a few days. The branches will pop back up. Used two hooks to keep the 'pinwheel' pattern bc some lower branches were covering nearby buds. They look better, have better light coverage, it's cooler tonight, the AC isn't running dehydrating the house. I added the 4th fan for more air on the deserving plant(s) but I need to get a piece of PVC pipe cut, in place of the closet rod. The rod is two big dia. for the fan clips and a shower curtain rod keeps turning on the brackets. I could screw the PVC pipe into the closet rod bracket holes.

What size PVC pipe is usually used, or is best in tents? I will probably locate my tension rods to put in the 2' depth, sides or middle, for fans when I really need them. Hopefully osc floor fans will go on sale soon, I try to buy off-season in anticipation. Thnx.

Can't comment on diameter but get pvc electrical conduit, they have it at lowes or HD. It will be grey, 10 foot lengths. Important: it comes in schedule 40 and 80, get schedule 80, it has thicker walls than schedule 40 and will hold up better as a hanging rod.

 

[Puglover1]

TYVM Catfish22 !

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly ... and the dogs. The Bad & the Ugly are 3 months old today. No ambers. Lemon, apropos, has the most yellow leaves. All the weight is on Chewy's shoulders now. Happy Slurpee Day! It's rainy, cooler and gloomy here today, yay for coolers.

Pic #6 - are those 3 'moons' on the R in the pot trichs flying through the air??

 

[Farmbuck]

Let me guess, your Northern Lights is the Good non ?

Bonne semaine à toi @Puglover1

 

[Puglover1]

Il y a deux aurores boréales, monsieur. Mais oui tu as raison accidentellement. passez une merveilleuse semaine, restez au frais.

Catch this. I have a class action settlement coming, supposed to be $800+ and I chose PayPal so that I could transfer the funds to my checking account. I paid my bills and planned around this - car repair cc payoff. Got an email, it's settled $893.xx USD however the choices are an Amazon GC, Target GC, Prepaid Mastercard or a plastic mailed prepaid card that can be cashed out at ATM/bank but with fees. I know, it's nice money. The light I ordered has shipped. I could've gone whole hog on that instead of using my Discover card for 2/3 of the vipar. Won't know the plastic card cash out fees until tomorrow, then it gets snail mailed. I could have the $ in my amazon acct right now. Not really bitching but you know ... the best laid plans and all. Other than the credit card all but one of my monthly bills are auto-debits, and you can't pay a credit card with a credit card. If I had $900 in my amazon acct you know what would happen, fast. You can't get cash/ATM with the prepaid Mastercard. Fingers crossed that my bank won't rape me too bad to get cash from the plastic card. I want my PayPal, I already gave my acct info and docu-signed for this. Then I got an email from another law firm that said the payout could be up to $5K. IL has great laws for facial recognition technology violations, I had an acct with many pics of my face in it. I need to order bigger bags and FF for the photos, this makes my model cars (miniature autos) not hurt as bad.

 

[SoOrbudgal]

Looks like the pug got into the stash LOL

 

[Puglover1]

SoOrbudgal That pug has a rare disease, has to be vegetarian, always hangry. He'll will eat anything except bugs or cannabis, he loves Cottonelle as much as some humans like caviar or filet mignon.

 

[SoOrbudgal]

LOL ya mean the toilet paper Puglover1 OMG

 

[Puglover1]

SoOrbudgal Yup, the tp. He has a Twitter acct, he's well known to Cottonelle's Twitter acct. OMG it's pouring rain so hard here right now I think it'd almost put out your fire up yonder. My car is getting washed well. Last time it rained this hard was Mother's Day and I was sweeping basement water from 4-5 a.m. The water won, I went back to bed. This hasn't happened for years, we had a "50 year flood" two years in a row, 2007-2008. I lost 3 crates of LPs, record albums. That still pains me but I learned how to arrange storage down there. After last August's derecho my basement is FUBAR, I was sweeping water toward the floor drain in May and it was flowing back at me. Waiting on an engineer/insurance for that. I really do have a Murphy's Law cloud over my head.

 

[SoOrbudgal]

Nope nothing but heat and wind, everything is just burning up. Now i'm glad my raised beds are not planted but i have lots of dahlias and other tender flowers that get the water. I'm going to buy fresh veggies from the farmers markets. I have tomatoes in 15gal. containers they are giants i'm tying them up to stakes. No rain in near future, but suppose to get down in the mid 80f by the weekend. That's so cute about your pug LOL

 

[Puglover1]

I'm happy I didn't waste money on container veggies for the deck this year. Be burned up or drowned by now. I bought a metal raised bed for next year, hopefully.

I looked through two months of pics, the Runt started turning ugly on 6/27, pistils disappearing, sugar leaf tips browning and curling, not due to watering deficiency and it was never too close to the light, not tall enough. I rotated which pots were under the full spectrum lights until this plant turned sour then I just put it under the blurple LED and let the others have the full spectrum. Runt has been next to the little humidifier for a while but you couldn't tell by looking at it. Lemon was underwatered in July, its top 3-4 buds have pretty many dark pistils and they also looks like few white pistils.

Both are 91 days from sprout, both have lower buds that aren't ready. Lemon might not get amber trichs. I'm trying to decide if I can chop the 3-4 top buds from Lemon and let the rest finish later ... but what about flushing? Same with Runt, those two top buds aren't amber but they're tight, with growth underneath that could finish later. Thoughts? Advice?

For my photos - Are 7 gal bags big enough?? New light arrived today. When I pull the pots to work on switching lights I need to clean the fans, shelves and floor. I've got FF in my wishlist until needed or a price change notice. I need to shop for the PVC pipe and look around the gardening center, after I inventory my shed for plant saucers and whatever else I might find useful.

Whether I start seeds in the A-G, cups or peat pots should I tx to medium pots or straight to the final pots? I need to start these soon, I have what I need. Thnx.

 

[Catfish22]

Hey, IIRC that Lemon from Seedsman that I did never had a lot of ambers either.

 

[Puglover1]

Catfish22 I was reading about Lemon, it is probably about done on top. I'm still baffled by the Runt's pistils mostly disappearing, after I clipped off two top, old fan leaves. Watering later today, would I flush a bit before taking off top buds that are done while letting lowers finish? I did that with my first, photo grow, but there's no comparing the two. Giants > midgets.

 

[Puglover1]

SoOrbudgal Are 7 gal bags the best size for indoor photos? And can I go from cups to the bags or use a medium pot in between? My first photo grow was started using info from a Frank & Rosenthal book I bought in 1979. I need to spend the weekend cleaning the closet, setting up the new light and starting seeds. Thanks!

 

[SoOrbudgal]

If you can fit those in your closet sure they would be great. I don't have 7gal i just use 3-5gal fabric for mine. Everything i take into consideration on how i can handle them, how much weight do i want to lift?? How old i want them to be before i flip the lights. Next indoor run will be 4 clone photoperiod. They for me take more time initially to get them trained and groomed. I will run 2 GG#4 2 Peanut Butter Breath. The more i read about the latter the more i want to keep the strain, so with all the growing these gals are doing and shoots they are making i could not help myself :youre-killin-me::doubtful: but i'm going with probley 3gal. fabric maybe 1 5gal. ? I bring mine in and out of tent till they get too wide to carry through doorways to the bathtub where they get big watering.

 

[Puglover1]

When I was looking at vivosun's, the dims on the 7 sounded like the pot size I used last time. I'll have to measure, it's dark and looking ominous outside right now. There isn't a lot of difference: 5 Gal. Fabric Pot: D12.6" x H9.84"; 7 Gal. Fabric Pot: D13.98" x H10.24". My closet is 24" deep, the diff in diameter is less than 1.5 inches. If 5 gal works for you maybe I'll try those. Do you plant from cups then into the bags? I used to be able to pull my pots out, before they were yoyo'd. My grow closet bedroom has an attached bath with a wide shower so if I moved them to water it wouldn't be far. I don't think I'll be needing the strings in there for drying for a while.
OMG, I was looking through the patio door at the sky to the NW, saw a deer right behind the welded wire fencing in my backyard fenced area for the pugs. Wire for the irregular ravine edge, wood on the sides. I hope they can't jump over 6 feet from a downward slope. They are much more unafraid this year, I love seeing them rollick as if us humans don't exist nearby. I've only heard of PB Breath on this site, hope yours is yummy. I'm doing Wild Thai, WW fast and still thinking about that Mag seed. Thanks!
