Random dank bud seeds 7 weeks into flower:

And a panoramic view of the flower tent

Here is a part of the veg tent, veg is 4x4x4 and flower is a little over 5x5x5.

The bigger ones are all random seeds from really good bud, seedlings are 6x lemon shakespeare and 4x white widow. When i have more time i'll get more pics of the veg plants. Also having a problem with flower plants few leaves are like this:

Alot of the leaves are turning a light green and starting to yellow but i know that's a natural process at this point being 7 weeks into flower. I'm pretty sure it might be ca/mg problem i stopped using it and a week or so after they turned like that, not alot of leaves but a few on each plant, i have sense then started using ca/mg again.
And here's some of the lemon ready to smoke

Thank you everyone for coming and looking at my journal, i'll be updating whenever i can or whenever i feel it's worth updating. Any comments, ideas, questions or feedback is greatly appreciated. Happy growing stay green!

Welcome bike, thanks for the kind words! Mites destroyed the mothers of the strain that's flowering right now so collected different dank seeds from friends and now trying to find exactly what i want. The lemon is very very good pictures on done on an iphone so it doesn't do it justice but def the best smoke i have had in a while. One of the growers plants hermied so i ended with about 30 seeds. Not really concerned about genetics being messed up, very strong seeds and if any hermy i shall just pull them out . The big ones hairs are just now starting to turn, i'm hoping chop will be 2-3 weeks but still new so i'll let the plant tell me . Thanks for stopping in, i'll have plenty more pics up within an hour or so.

Ok first quick update just to show you more of pictures of the girls. I fed all the hempys today, groups in transition got 4ml/g of flora grow micro and bloom and 2.5 ml of florablend. On the big girl more hairs started to turn and hoping harvest will be right around the corner after they put on some more weight .

Thank you all for looking, any comments, questions, tips, all is welcome. Happy growing.

You had me at Bud Porn Subd. Things looking good nice set up and all your plants have a nice color to them, one little thing tho maybe let the Chives dry up a bit, no water no nutes lol. Keep up the good work Grow Hard.

 

[nhgrow]

Thanks for stopping in and for the kind words dasher, i think the same about your grow. I actually just watered them and i do let them dry out big time before i water but i was giving nutes to them so ty for the advice . First time growing any herbs (pun not intended but is true) and any advice on any of them is greatly appreciated . On my big flowering girl she was turning light green so today i doubled the bloom fert when i fed them so hopefully she snaps out of it. Girls are coming along nicely, i can not update with pictures until tomorrow morning. All i can say is they are starting to fatten up and smile really nice . Thank you everyone for stopping in.

Nice grow Nh. +reps and subd. Whats your flowering time on your big plant?

Thanks for the kind words over in my journal buddy. Its been a lot of fun journaling here.

 

[jlt1202]

Good start man! love your prepin some vegies in there haha iwas doing that this spring as well ; P

 

[nhgrow]

@Shotta- Honestly, not sure. When i very very first started this project, a mother and a big clone was giving to me from a friend. He only flowered it outdoors and when i asked how long he flowered for he said he let it go until first sign of bud rot which is no help for me . Today is the 56 day of flower so i think i'm going to start the flush now but not really sure. I haven't been able to look at trics but hopefully today my loupe should be in the mail. I can already tell it's going to be a blast seeing as in my real life situation i can't really talk about growing to too many people. Thanks for stopping in shotta, you will be seeing me around more in your journal for sure!

@ jlt1202- Thanks for stopping in and the kind words bro. And about the veggies prob the best thing i could of done, been needing to fill up my tent but mites got bout 3/4 of first rounders so i figured why not . Basil is getting huuuuge and def has the most fragrance of them all. Expect update photos from yesterday and most likely today in about an hour.

 

[jlt1202]

IM Looking at starting a outdoor garden in back yard, i want to build some raised beds mabe knee high and then put a greenhouse light set up over it so they can go crazy!

 

[nhgrow]

I would LOVE to do that, kind of my dream. The only outdoor i can do where i am is just throw them out in the woods :\.Making a raised bed knee high for a green house is going to be alot of work and alot of money, i hope to see a journal of it 1 day here!

 

[jlt1202]

LOL funny u say that i just bought some wood and dirt to make a raised bed, i want to do with veggies and some day ill do with tree, i just like gardening so i want to make a rasied bed and then add a green house to the wood so i can control temps on cold or windy days!

 

[ilikebike]

Everything is looking proper from what i can see so far, best of luck to you through out the rest of your grow~!

 

[nhgrow]

Thanks for stopping in ilb and for the kind words, trying to get better everyday .

So, on to updates, been a little slow as of late. Today was a pretty interesting day... Friend who worked doing foreclosure clean-outs found 2 nice ge digital timers ($50 ea brand new), well to make a long story short about an hour before lights out we had a big fight and he took everything that he gave me for the grow mind you he got it all for free, oh well means he wasn't a real friend...So, after buying new timers and getting him out of my life ready to move on and update! I have tons of pictures from yesterday of the flower room thinks are looking great, got my magnifier to check trics today and sadly see i should of been flushing a few days ago, oh well started flush today, shouldn't be too far off, no amber yet so i'm praying i don't miss the window...Chopped a really small 1 i had in soil to see how it is without a flush with organics and compare to with a 3 day flush prob a 5 day flush and a proper 7 day flush, anyone else think that's a good idea with organics? Most likely will be growing this strain for a while as it has alot of characteristics i like. My first 3 i started looking in hempy look ugly because of my first time they suffered from severe root rot cuz all i had was organics and i thought they'd be fine till i got some chem, well i was wrong. They are doing ok, still alive and pumping out trics and bud pretty well compared to what they have been through. Got the hempy pretty dialed in, new rounds are doing great, i'll stop going on and on and let the pics do some talking that dam blue dream always does that to me .

Side branch of big 1:

And the new girls starting to reveal some skin :

Once the battery back up on new timers are charged and i have to put it in the flower tent, i'll take some quick pictures and most likely will update in the morning with todays pictures. Thanks for stopping in everyone, hope you had a good stay, keep em green

Hey nh nice grow you got there.

i use to live in nh "Live free or die!"

 

[nhgrow]

Thanks for stopping in smurf, i moved to maine last year but am and always will be a nh kid .Stick around, i can promise it will only get better.

 

[ilikebike]

Hey nh nice grow you got there.

i use to live in nh "Live free or die!"

Oh the irony, im just glad its not the state motto any more.

EDIT: after lookin it up it is still the state motto, oh well, i would never wanna live there. Live free or die yet its the only state in New England thats not on a mmj program haha

 

[greensmurf]

Oh the irony, im just glad its not the state motto any more.

Lol. Bike when I saw your name it made me remember the good times i had in laconia. Its not their motto any more? Its still on the license plates.

 

[nhgrow]

Yea it def is still live free or die, doesn't make any sense because they have some of the most strict laws hence why i'm now in maine . But they are finally getting on page with medical and what not. I live not too far from laconia and used to live ~20 mins from there, hit up bike week every year .

 

[greensmurf]

How could you not when you live so close.
