Th34v4t4r's D.I.Y. Octopot Shananingans

[Th34v4t4r]

Oh my I've got sticky fingers... errrm I had the idea there was not enough light getting to lower colas. They were hinting at yellow.. So we 're take them to town on the defol... done number one...

And boy do they look like little colas now you can see them.. hopefully they get dench as fuck now they can breath....

I've had to stop to smoke a doob. That defol took 45mins. My backs fucked lmao...

 

[Th34v4t4r]

Boom... now i will not touch them at all... im happy with that defol... now those buds can just thicken the fuxk right out dont you think???..

Now imagine I didn't have the begigining problems with ph. I would have filled my tent..

I think if each cola thickens properly now well be on for bigger then 3gram per cola . ... . Now it's getting exciting.

I've also just used the last of my nutes .. oh well no need for them no well be moving onto water in a week or so . Plenty of time to use up what we got in there.

 

[Th34v4t4r]

So I've just checked on the girls after our defol last night. And they seem happy enough.. the colas that were super light green have started to darken.. just needs a bit more light to hit them I think. They have lift thier heads beautifully though..

Also they are drinking rapidly now.. like really rapid. I think I'm going to have to fill the tank back up by end of next week.. if not sooner.. no matter I guess it just starts the flush sooner.

Also. Question.. with me taking so long to veg do you think i should give extra time into my nuggs I mean I don't care howling they grow for really.. the more time the thicker the better.. right?!

Anyway a few photos today

 

[StoneOtter]

Wow, they're almost there. How are you going to tell when they're done?

 

[Th34v4t4r]

I don't know @stoneotter I guess I'll have to just feel itin my bones... shall i buy a magnifier??? Check trychomes

 

[StoneOtter]

That's how I do it. Nothing like getting in and having a good look.

I don’t think your bones are the best gauge of ripeness! A jewellers loupe or magnifying glass would be your best bet to get up close and personal with the Trichome heads!

What an entertaining journal, took me back to the days of watching Eastenders.......lol
I take my hat off to you sometimes I just didn't know what you'd do next to those poor plants but kudos to you and your Edwardian scissor hands but your plants look awsome....haha
When I spray with h202 I usually do 10ml to a litre....

Well if you'll excuse me I dare wonder if I should take a nosy at mr.Konfuzis journal or whether I'll be shouted upon....haha

Hahaha don't far go near kong unless youbhabe bananas

At the begigining I was abit hastywith alot of it. I had an image in my head. But I thank you for your praise, and I'm glad you enjoyed the read...

They'll be some more photos tonight.. but I am mighty impressed with our turn out....

Take a look at the heavy defol techniques . . . The plants thrive from it. Mine am certainly grew slow but enjoyed being trimmed.

 

[Smeegol]

I do quite a few of the things you do, some work some don't but it's all about the learning....haha
Sometimes I want to quick myself but sometimes those bloopers turn into something promising as you've found......

That would be 1%. 10ml out of 1000ml.
Plants look good man!

 

[Th34v4t4r]

Hi bigearl how are we.. and yh course it is lmao.. ahh well better to be weak then strong in this situation lmao

Well iveligted the lid and I don't know why but the plant on the right is drinking twice as fast as Doris on the left, yet she has less roots however she also had less buggs.. and she has a lot more trychomes... ... ..

I think maybe the buggs got to my roots abit too much yano... but no matter I'm sure there going to be just as nice...


I few footnotes relating to the medium of the octopot... no rockwool. No bark..

Rockwell hold to much moisture and bark is hard for the roots to grow through and also I'm sure it raises p.h naturally messing with the 5.5 you would range it...

I used soil and coco aqua pebbles.. the soil doesn't retain to much moisture... it helps to gradient it.. you want the bottom of the sleeves to be moist yet the top half bone dry.. it encourages the root growth into two developments.. oxygen high. Water low.. and it changes it's molecular structure to be able to be submerged in the still water..

Ahhh I better get off to work...


The girls are getting fat now so the more time I have a way, the more I can pick on them for gaining so much weight ...

 

[Th34v4t4r]

Looks lovely!

Thanks grandpa... I was listening to radio the other day and a track come on that made me think of you lmao.... I'll find it and post it later. I think youll enjoy it

Well in going to drop it here, and if you don't like it. I'll throw my entire tent in a river

 

[Grandpa Tokin]

Your tent is safe. I definitely like.

 

[Th34v4t4r]

Well here a few photos of the girls just now...

They seem to be chunking out quite nicely and the ones at the back seem to be getting biggest. Any reason do you think the light isn't any further forward or back of the centre lmao..

But hey I ain't complaining

The rightt girl is definatly drinking significantly heavier then the left.. shell be out of water by the end of the week.

I have no nutes so when the drink is drank that is it I guess...

Should I pre-empt it and top up now so we still have half strength nuts.. whats your thoughts guys..

Wait or top up so there is still a little sutting sutting for a bit longer

 

[Grandpa Tokin]

I’d top it off. That’s me. I figure it’s less stressful.

They look good though.
