Thanks alot man, i have to refine that idea though. I couldnt find the right glass i needed for it so i scraped it. Im working on making a cooler for the intake fan out of a motor cycle trans cooler.

Your topping strategy looks like it's producing some nice squat and bushy plants.

Yes they are, i will be growing them to 2 1/2 feet before flowering them. This is going to end up a huge scrog grow for only 2-3 plants. (I dont know how many males i have :( ) But if all goes well i will throw in the other screen and do a 2 foot by 4foot scrog sreen. Im using chicken wire to get the small tips working then cutting bigger holes over time to alow for easy movement and new growth. Im hoping for at least 20 bud spots. Here grows nothing hahaha

Thanks alot guys! And welcome to my grow journal.

[BUD08]

Here we go again.... I have started to train my girls, bent all the stocks over to allow for the plants to spread out and give me what i need to fill my scrog.

Fed them yesterday with guano and peace of mind. 1/4 mix of each.

Looking at buying some better seeds soon but i have to plan what i want to do. I guess we will see how things go in the future. I will be picking seeds this week, so when i know i will be sure to let all of you know.


Here are the updates on the girls.

Thanks for the rep man! Yes that's super croping. All of the girls have been worked on for some time now and I have some to the end of topping and bending. The girls are very strong and wernt even phased after being bent. All the stocks have started to heal very well and they grew a half inch each over night.

The girls will no longer be touched other then misting and pushing leaves down to get read for the scrog next Friday.

I will be putting them into 24 hours of darkness on sat then begin my 12/12 on Sunday.

All feed back is welcome!

BUD08 ladies are trained nicley...should be a lot of buds sites

[Odorous]

hmm interesting.. so then i have a ?

i wanna do a scrog but i have 2 separate rooms for veg/flower.. i was under the idea that to do a scrog, you train with lst fim whatever to get a buncha budsites/growth stems to the screen, then when its about full THEN you flip the lights to 12/12?... is this just personal preference stuff? im guessin maybe youre doin it your way cuz theyre going to fill that screen themselves with all that awesome training you got goin on? idk still speculatin over here bro ha looks good

Im actually doing a few different things to come up with the results that i want. I have done alot of reading and browsing over time and figured it was time to have some fun and see if i could put a few different ways to grow together and then see what i came up with. I know that there has got to be a way to make plants get bigger buds but still allow for the plant to stay small. Im hoping that after doing these things i will be able to have a bigger yeild along with bigger buds all over.

I know that alot of times people end up with a few big buds or a lot of little ones and i dont want either of those. I wan't them to have nice big buds and lots of bud spots. I think this should answer your question.

So far i have topped,FIM,Trained and bent the stocks. I think that close to all the makes a big change in re-directing hormones in the plants. (PLANTS WILL NOT FLOWER UNTIL 2' HIGH) Now its time to let them grow grow grow.

A plant is like a child i believe that if you put a child through surgerys and that kind of thing when there young, they will recover faster and won't remember what happened. Mabey thats kind of corny but i think in alot of ways its better to do things like this when the plant is young and can easly bounce back from the stress and pain of things.

If at first you don't succeed, try and try again. This may turn out to be a flop but im going to do everything that i can to keep them going strong and have the best possible yeild and finish to this grow.

If anything else i will have a chance to learn something new!


Cheers!

[Odorous]

ha righteous man! Cheers!

i get caught up in all the technical nonsense sometimes n forget its a weed i swear... =D

[BUD08]

LOL i know what you mean. I have done some bigger grows that i dont take pictures of for good reason. But i like doing small grows like this to see what i can make and come up with.

It's like you have this great $500.00 bong but some nights you just want to sit on the floor with alot of crap and try to make your own. I grow meds for a reason but my personal grow is all about fun and trying new things.

I must also say they are some mighty fine WEEDS indead!

[Odorous]

haha hell yeah man big grows are cool to watch but that makes sense.. i can definately tell you kno ya shit, thas dope (<-----lol)

you familiar with hydro?? cuz im about to post on my thread sum pics that i think are a problem..

[BUD08]

You only use the best when you want the best. Hydro is great and i use it on my big grows. Theres alot to know about how to do a good hydro grow but once you get it down to a science its smooth sailing ever grow after. I give you mad props for giving it a try. You have a very nice set up for a small grow, i think you will do just fine and if anything grows wrong hahaha there are alot of people here how you can ask. The best thing about 420 mag is that people are heard and replyed to in short time. Ima jump to your page i wanna see more pic's.

My joint went out while typing so i figured i would re light and share.Med grow joint: G13 Haze

[BUD08]

Whats up every one. Figured i would do an update since it has been a few days.

The girls are doing very well and growing strong and healthy. I have not touched them at all and wont be again till there under the screen. They were fed just before i snaped some shots. I love feeding days. Its so exciting being able to see all the fast growth show up over the night.

The girls will be getting alot larger and stretching very soon, there still doing a bit or healing from all the training that has been done. I have to scrog over them now and have moved the light up to promote stretching of the stock. Im hoping to be able to switch to 12/12 friday but i dont want to bring it on to early. Guess only time will tell.

Any comments or info is always welcome. Thanks for looking and enjoy!

































Tiill next time.....
