Welcome everyone to my latest grow journal!!:thumb:
This time around I am trying to rectify a few slight errors I made in the last couple.. Even though I did get some good results from them, It was not as much as Id anticipated. Be thankful for what you have tho!!
So this time, I am going back to first ways of LST and my method and hope to see good results. I am attemtpting to Veg this girl until she s about 4ft in height, 3.5-4ft. Then Ill flip it and hopefully get some good size buds:):)
I am currently just housing her in her space under the 400w MH, She started out under CFL's and grew well, she is nice short and bushy - i need her to stretch soon, So once Ive got a few more days of LST under my belt she should take shape.. Then I can start to make the magic happen:high-five: And I am really hoping to gain over the 1pound marker, maybe 1.5 but any where in between is FINE BY ME!!
It may seem like a big objective or time to some, But I know what I CAN do, its just a matter of doing things in a certain way and be bit more careful when starting the LST process.. NO BROKEN MAIN STEMS PLEASE GANJA GODS:(
Ok, So Ill Start out with some pics of her when she was Germinated, and first popped thru the surface, As always, she came with another seedling which I cull upon selection of either plant. The one I culled was faster developed and short and stockier than the one I kept. But I went with this one, Teresa Green - Is her name:)
Say Hi to my new arrival!!

Just as it popped thru
2013-06-19_16_04_07.jpg
And day later..

These both took 2-3 days to tap root, and then 36hrs or so to pop up thru the surface, reletively quick compared to some.. And anyway about 1 week later :
2013-06-25_14_58_09.jpg
We had 2:)

I kept them both going for a bit until I made the call to separate them, I kept the other alive for bit but eventually killed it:( And then there was one:

Now under 2,6500K CFL's.

She did really well under these 2 globes and grew pretty quickly and so within a short amount of time she d gained size and looking promising to me..

They grow so quick!!

Theres Teresa starting to spread her wings and has now forming 5 bladed leaves, She looks like she s swimming in a sea of soil, But I dont have many issues with this.

2013-07-05_14_50_37.jpg
:cheer: Yay Go Teresa!
See how she is starting to gain in size now and looking like a good ol' ganja plant...

We had 1 major incident where she was horrificly burnt under the CFL as it dropped on top of her, Lucky I check her alot so I mustve just caught it as there was only lightly spread burn, which she has now pretty much fully grown out;)

And then comes the re pot and preparation for her to go under the MH, I cleared out my space and got my soil mix ready. Humus, Pot mix and some slow release nutes along with some Cal/mag. She should be pretty happy for a while now.

Now some snaps of her in her new pot and under her 400w, Since these pics she s come along a little more and I will post these pics at a future time.
She has just started to go into LST and will gradually grow up big enough I hope for her to get some nice bulk.. OK guys well heres Teresa starting LST:

Re: Smokemup's Latest Grow. Going For +1lb! 400w MH/HPS Soil - Indoor

Hey KJ;)
How are you?? Cheers for dropping over to my new chapter in this story of weed mythology.. Teresa is so bushy now that all her lower branches are growing huge fan leaves and all pushing into each other:):) CAOS!!! So Im removing another 2 fans later on today to allow the lower branches more lighting.
I mean it is crazy!! And as she is a rather stocky lil girl Im takin my time with her main stem bending, but I need to pull it across to one not only to open up the lighting to the lower branches, But to begin the process I need it to undertake growing wise and I will hopefully end up with a good setup of base branches and then following with new Apical tops to hopefully get around 15 main branches. Ala' Cindy;)

So hopefully maate, Ill have something like this again soon! Pending on the strain, But it looks to be a potentially good yielder. Thanks for dropping in King John, Much appreciated, Will chat soon. Smokemup
 
Re: Smokemup's Latest Grow. Going For +1lb! 400w MH/HPS Soil - Indoor

Welcoming all into my latest place of refuge:)
I will like to add that Teresa is going great, Her branching and fan leaf size is impressive and also causing some trouble as the under growth is also growing large fans and theyre pushing into each other..
So Im trying to keep her organised as best I can, I will load up some more pics after I trim the 3rd set down pair of fans, in the next couple days she will hopefuly be arranged closely into the position I need, and if Im lucky she will branch out and up as much as Cindy did earlier - and since Im not pushing any time envelope this time, I can afford a little more Veg time. Tho at her present rate she s likely to be wider than taller unless I raise my MH to about 35cm above the plant tops to hopefully get more stretch?
Tho at this stage if Im not careful I could limit some of her branching potential so im playing it as I go.
While looking thru my journals before I thought I might put up some pics of my grows on here til now:) ENJOY:

Re: Smokemup's Latest Grow. Going For +1lb! 400w MH/HPS Soil - Indoor

Welcome aboard my friend;) Hey Spimp, How are you?
Good to see you over here on my latest journal, I hope to make this a successful one even if it takes bit more work! I need over 1 pound each grow or Im screwed!!
So since I was 4 Oz shy this time due to snapping the main stem in half, I am hoping that this girl can do really well given the right amount of TLC..Not THC.. lol..
When I post her new pics youll see my conundrum - But I am hopin this plant is from one of my older seed stashes, as theyre better quality than some others I have, So she may grow good for me FINGAZ CROSSED.
I must stop by your journal and have a look in your garden of green ness;) Have a good one Spimp! Chat soon, Smokemup..
 
Re: Smokemup's Latest Grow. Going For +1lb! 400w MH/HPS Soil - Indoor

Re: Smokemup's Latest Grow. Going For +1lb! 400w MH/HPS Soil - Indoor

Cheers GetUr Grow;)
Welcome to my latest chapter in Ganja-ology.. I am as stated, aiming for over 1pound, So Im coutning on this grow to work to its optimum which can get tricky at times,espec when youre trying to grow a +6ft x4.5ft plant!
Ill try to keep this upto date as possible, But must allow for some down time. GETTIN BAKED:) lol
Chat soon mate, Smokemup
 
Re: Smokemup's Latest Grow. Going For +1lb! 400w MH/HPS Soil - Indoor

No probs Tre, Drop in anytime for any questions or such if needed.. Have a good one, Later buddy. Smokem...:thumb::welcome:
 
Re: Smokemup's Latest Grow. Going For +1lb! 400w MH/HPS Soil - Indoor

Hey RunWolf;)
Glad to see youre over here in my newest page in this chapter of Ganja greatness..Well I hope so anyway, My aim is to be establish a pattern for growing a single plant within my constraints to produce 1 pound of dry buds or hopefully more:)
Extra weed is ALWAYS a bonus.. I too hope that with this grow I can get it to around Cindy's height or bit more ( 6'3-6'7ft ) and I SHOULD if Im lucky enuf be able to get this goal. My yield with Cindy was never completed due to most of my harvest being stolen, I was left with 4 buds that weighed 6.5oz dry, about a third of my harvest - So I estimate she d have been close to 1.5lbs as I weighed her branches wheN I chopped her and got a weight of over 2.6kg, But it had solid branching so just over 1.3 pounds or so wouldnt be hard to achieve as Ive cracked the pound with only a 4.5ftx4.5ft girl??
Thanks for dropping in and anytime my friend. Have a good one and will chat soon. Be cool, Smokemup
 
Re: Smokemup's Latest Grow. Going For +1lb! 400w MH/HPS Soil - Indoor

Hey SmokemUp... did I catch a comment in your earlier journal that over in the AU you're allowed to have 3 plants per household as long as you don't use grow lights? Is that medical or anyone living there? Just curious about that, if it's anyone though, that's pretty cool.
 
Re: Smokemup's Latest Grow. Going For +1lb! 400w MH/HPS Soil - Indoor

Jimmy, Hows things pal??
Well honestly Ive not even bothered to check on that as Ive been concerned with what to do with its growth? If I should trim leaves off the new branch shoots, I dont normally but she is bushy as George Bush..Ill probably leave her be as she s going thru LST and that will be enough for now I guess, But wil try tuck leaves where I can.
So in answer to your question is NO, Ive not been able to confirm her gender but I am assuming Female - She shows too good growth IMO to be a male. Time will tell, her root system is AMAZING JIMMY! I was blown away a bit by the amount and width of them and it looks like she s nicely moved into her new home, and is spreading her wings so to speak.
Ive removed 2 pairs of leaves so far, and I want to keep that minimal at this point - But her growth is fairly fast and she is making fans nearly as large as my hand which is big enough to palm a basketball easy.. Im liking her looks at this point Ill just say, She does have them tiny spikes nxt to each node - not that calyx which shows 2 pistils - But just lil spikey things:) Mostmy plants that Ive seen this on have been females. AND IF INDEED TERESA IS A FEMALE - Itll still keep my record at 99% Success rate of Female to male ratio during seed sprouting and NOT SOURCED FROM FEMINISED SEED BANKS. Or any seed bank for that matter!! lol..Bag seed is my smoking weed, If Im lucky enough to get a nice bud from a friend that has a seed, Ill keep it as long as its good weed that got me stoned.
So fingaz crossed I can keep this record in tact.
Have a good one Jimmy and cheers for stopping by mate, will chat soon. Smokemup:thanks:

Speaking of Cindy we still need to get up a posse and lynch those mothers.
 
Re: Smokemup's Latest Grow. Going For +1lb! 400w MH/HPS Soil - Indoor

Smokey I finally gave in to the LST and scrog shanagans. My current indoor is all scroggin out n shit.
 
Re: Smokemup's Latest Grow. Going For +1lb! 400w MH/HPS Soil - Indoor

Yeah you did indeed read that somewhere among my pages.. Theirs certain states that allow a couple P/household, and others where they bust your balls for having a couple of dried grams... Well, you get a warning first if its small amount and it gets worse if youre caught again, eventually getting you in jail! Woo HOO!! But yeah, when I was living over here in Adelaide years back we could have upto 3 plants p/person P/household, But now theyve reduced that to 1 or 2 max plants outdoors, with lights theyll just take ur setup, which sucks, But Im happier to lose my Ballast than my plants! Usually as long as its not a big setup and your not selling it you;ll be ok, So thats why I keep it small as its only personal use for me ( medicinal ) so yeah hopefuly Ill be fine if I ever get a visit..
The laws here are pretty shitful in places, Ive been and lived in most of Australia and of all, Id have to say Western Australia ( Perth ) is the nicest state to live.. Im not far from there really but wont be going back over there for a while I think.
Alright well thanks for dropping by again RunWolf, good chatting to ya! Smokemup:thumb:
 
Re: Smokemup's Latest Grow. Going For +1lb! 400w MH/HPS Soil - Indoor

Im with you mate;) Feel the same way, Tho the end result was a bitch-slap of truth, it served its purpose I guess..
The group of twits that organised it have all subsequently either had their vehicles smashed up, 2 got themselves hurt and another is in jail;) And I know its kind of mean to say but since she helped with the scam I hope his mum is suffering with her gangrene foot and another By-pass needed and stent in the artery. I did alot for this person and then after the facade we were put thru it was a shit go for someone I once cared for alot.
But yeah, Thats in the past now Jimmy, I dont forget, But if I gave up cos of that Id be stupid, I know that none of the ppl involved are able to affect me, the way I can them, So Im comfortable for now we'll just say.. LIFES NOT GOOD WHEN YOU GOTTA WORRY BOUT YOUR FRIENDS TAKING YOUR GANJA< NOT THE POLICE!!!
I do appreciate your comments tho buddy, I just dont think bout it and with all the other crap I gotta deal with I cant be fixated on 1 train of thought. GOTTA STAY ON MY TOES - Im ready to dance anyday, Where, oh where, shall my challenger be??.. I cant wish evil on people I guess, karma should fix them up in time for me I trust.
And hey, Im doing ok and have had a couple of harvest since so I will remain vigilant as best I can and soon my cares will be reduced as I am looking at some future plans, hoping they all come together - LIKE THE A-TEAM:)
Hoping your ganja is going good for you;) Ill have to drop by and stop being such a ignoramus. Be good or good at it, Chat soon mate, Smokemup:thumb:
