CnstntGrdnr's Indica/Sativa White Widow Grow Journal - 2009 - First Grow

[CnstntGrdnr]

Thanks McBudz - it's all good with the two ladies. I can give each of them much more attention!

My two remaining ladies are now in their early stages of flowering and seem to be doing pretty well. I was surprised at the sudden growth spurt of both plants, I'm glad my height isn't severely limited.

I've been watering them every three or four days and I've been feeding them Tiger Bloom, Big Bloom, and Liquid Seaweed (through soil, not foliar).

I tied the branches apart slightly since I have almost 4' X 4' to stretch 'em out, this should allow more light to hit those buds. The branches from the topped region of the plant have really skyrocketed to a ridiculous heights on one of the plants. I think on my next grow I'm gonna try some Humboldt stacker or gravity fertilizer to see if that'll help with the internodal spacing. My light was right on top of that plant, too.

Oh, I also created a total of 12 clones from both plants. Starting from seeds is fun, but getting stuck with four guys in a batch of six sucks ass. So far the clones are doing well, I'll have to snap a photo of them later, it's only been a couple of days.

I've uploaded images of the plants to my album here - check 'em out when you get a chance!

Looking good.
The buds are forming up nicely.

Thanks Pan4!

I took a longer-than-anticipated visit to your journals and was impressed with the creativity and approach you take when growing marijuana. Thanks for exploring the possibilities! :)

Cheers,

They're off to a pretty good start!












I really like this photo.
























Yes, that's a 5-gallon water jug in front of the plants...just in case you were lookking for a size reference.



From a slightly different angle...

Super reporting on your grow. I will be looking forward to your final report on yield and quality. Looking good.

[McBudz]

Getting down to the good stuff :)

I would bend the branches over and outward as they stretch up and and keep the light close for better penetration and overall bud consistency. I really liked my results when I went with horizontal colas. All the buds grew perpendicular of the stem and ended up all being similar density and potency. This current go around I did not have enough room to do that. Looks like you do though so just throwing that out there. Good growing!!

[CnstntGrdnr]

Exactly McBudz, it's kinda surreal to see my plants look like others plants have in the past. Sounds corny, but it's like a dream coming true (very slowly), now I'm eager for Day 60+ flowering...that's when they look really juicy.

Thanks for the tips, I did kinda bend them out already, to allow the light to penetrate the inner buds. I'll do it again with more exaggeration.

I've also got some clones goin' on...pics coming soon. I cloned them on Friday, March 6th, so it's almost been a full week. I cloned 12, lost 2 already, I'm hoping for a batch of 6 or 7, I think I'll keep one as a mother then start some "Blueberry Kush Jelly" (I think, I'll confirm the strain name later) from seed while these clones flower.

It's all fallin' together - what a great hobby!

Nice work "C." With the 6 clones will you be able to fit all 6 in the tent during the flowering stage?
