My First Grow - Seven Lovely Ladies With SCROG

[BornTo420]

Day 41 of flowering, an here is a quick video update.

My clones have begone to show roots on three of the cubes. When do I transplant them?

 

[BornTo420]

Day 43 of flowering and clones are in their new home..Here is a video...

Added a second area to grow my Mother's...So far the FEMALE clones I clipped about 12 days ago are doing well. This second round will be soooo much better as I have the proper tools to do this correctly...You must buy a PPM and PH meter before you start...

 

[BornTo420]

Just gave them their week 7 nutrients. I also found out my PH meter is giving out bad readings, so my watering on Sunday was way of....

 

[BornTo420]

*UCK, I am killing my ladies...I get on board and get a ph and ppm meter and the ph meter takes a shit and i end up feeding them a 3-4 ph level...I sure hope the mothers I have cloned will be a better grow...Not giving so stayed tune..
Here is a video of a 70x close up of my TRICHOMES....

 

[BornTo420]

Ok, here is my update for the last three I cloned. I did a video showing how I did the transfer.

I am starting my second journal as I cloned 9 from a 2 month old flowering plant. Definitely have some strong potential mothers to give this unknown stain a second chance to grow without so much stress. I am totally confident that I will get down the nutrient mixes and start to breed a good crop. At least that's the plan.

Looking great BornTo420!

Trichs are on key.

Hey LeafLady, thank you for checking them out. I only wish I had not stessed them do badly. It;s my first grow ever, so I am learning for sure.

Can I ask you a favor? How do you get your link to your journal to located at the bottom of you post / signature. I can't figure it out yet.

Born2420!! Great job so far on your SCROG~~!! The ladies look very good for your first grow!!

Here is a video with a close up @ 90x of my ladies Trichomes, I want to play with them..Cant wait to smoke her.

I love your pictures and ladies!!! I definately need to figure out how I can do this budgetminded. I know some cameras and lenses can get very expensive. any advice?

I figured out this week, that by placing a Double Aspheric lens over my Iphone I can get these pictures and create a cool 93x video. This little lens is about 300 on the internet. Doctors in the eye business use this lens. I can take pictures without having to clip a piece off or disturb the ladies too much.

Thanks for stopping by and compliments. I am on my first grow here so I am very new and learning everyday. Just cloned these ladies and nursing his unknown strain to develop some nice MOMA's.

My bad for not updating.. My coned MOM's are producing HUGH leaves and plenty of sprout production. Working on a detailed new journal..I will quickly say, that it looks like 6 plants turned Hermaphrodite and here is a couple pictures of plant #5 after harvesting it. It's weight untrimmed is .2200 lbs and I got 34.3 grams of hanging bud and just 24 hours later the weight was 17.7 grams.

 

[BornTo420]

Wow, missing in action for almost two weeks without an update...Have been busy and have captured everything on video as that is so much more convenient than becoming a writer. LOL

So, I have harvested my first grow ever,

but a couple weeks prior, I had a hot night in the flower room that reached 96 degrees for 8 hours. They all eventually turned hermaphrodite but I did get some really nice buds considering all the abuse and stress I but the ladies threw. On another note,

my cloned mom's taken from these harvested plants a 32 days into flowering are Rock-in & Rollin this second go around.

I took a utility knife and sliced the stems open and inserted the blade in the stem in between the buds where I could not do a continuous cut. In less than 24 hrs the stems are snapping.

For a reference I have been accurately weighing each bud and Plant # 4 produced 56 grams of hanging buds and 24 hours later the weight was 28.3 grams. That is HALF the water weight evaporated in less than 24 hours. WOW, now I understand why water, nutrients and ph are soooooo important, the plant is almost all water....

I am behind on images to go with my progress but will get caught up. I am working on my second grow all the same unknown strains from the first grow. I also am writing a Journal called "The Life a Cannabis Mother" and will have lots of images and videos as I go.

If anyone thinks they know this strain please message me..TY

Looks amazing for being grown under 2 cfls mate! Just read this from start to finish, keep it up, will pop in for another look come harvest time

 

[preprodigy]

awesome, glad to see your doing your thing! and future reference as im sure your well aware of from your experience in the last grow, you never want your grow rm temps to get any higher then 87 deg max, anything above this will just start to kill your plants and cause them to stop bud production and herm out. as long as rm temps stay in check this wont be an issue, well form heat anyways, there are plenty of other factors that could cause a plant to herm out as well, genetics, nute lockout, in-proper habitat, or over/underfeeding ect... bug infestations, the list is endless.

Hey Now VtecHoe! Thanks for your kind words and hope all is well. I am ripped as I type from the first buds coming out of curing. I was able to take clones from these plants at 31 days into flowering. Here are the MOM's from the clones of this unknown strain.

Hey Now preprodigy, thanks for the info...It was just one day and eventually seven ladies turned hermie. Not all the buds got seeds, but the herb is still great medication.

and glad you can drop by. I am trying for sure. I normally go ALL OUT with anything I tackle.

I go some cool close up (93x) videos of trichome development. and the smoke is excellent, very smooth to smoke, can't wait for a mature bud to get cured and try that...The high is also different when you are smoking something you grew..LOL
