Stoney's Luv Shack

[Bandit420]

V8 Energy drinks POM & Blueberry could start a fight.
I got buddies that ask for them over beer, or they ask to take one home after the beers~!
Cherry would be my favorite flavor and another can worth carrying around in a cooler.

My reading says any growth past 6th node when cutting back to 3rd is just lost time and no big deal. It won't bite your ear or anything~!
My little tent says it is time to cut at least some of them.
I probably won't cut them all in the long run.
Certain plants I think may do better with traditional methods.
What I believe to be the most important part of the trimming and mainlining is symmetry.
Do the same thing to both sides of plant.
That is how the plant grows even sized buds.
Not all of mine have good branches coming from 3rd node I don't think but some do.
They will be first to cut.
I also think I will do tops and bottom same time to keep the flow of growth even afterwards.
I am pretty sure a good portion of the room will be done early/earlier than I originally planned, but that won't help me getting the next round out of the tent I don't think.

Is it weird that I'll put a can of V8 in my chili but I refuse to put beans in there?
Because I don't think it's weird at all.

Yeah cherry is just the best. I grew up in my grandpa's cherry orchard so we always had cherries every Summer. Musta eaten by the thousands back then and I'm still not tired of natural cherry flavors.
Gave up trying to find in weed terps so now I wanna use cherry juice for bong water to get the flavor in my pot

Yea tea in the bong is fucking great~!
I have been doing the cherry/grape/ berry hunt in every grow and have considered using the flavors for making vapes before but not really keen on it.
Aquaman said you can flavor your grow legit with the same stuff people use to make there own cigarette vapes.
I think just flavoring the bong may be the most efficient and simple way.
Pipe tobacco never tatse like it smells so maybe the real cherry pot is not out there.
I smoke Cherry Gar See Ya regularly but don't think it really taste like cherries. Not the cherry flavor I was thinking at least.

My favorite beer is Cherry Beer~! Kriek baby~!

This is living the dream brother~!

Man Pom Blueberry might the best juice out there! Hahaha too funny it would be the choice of stoners!
I'll put it in hot tea too! Like there's no bad way to enjoy that stuff.
Next time I send you somthing I'll pack in a few cheribundis from our nutrition center. It's right there with Pom and bro on a hot Summer day there is nothing better than iced up unsweet tea with tart cherry juice.
I've even been wanting to use the cherry juice in my bong to replace water. But yeah this stuff is so dang good!

Cheribundi

Cheribundi natural tart cherry juice is a potent addition to every athlete's recovery ritual, reducing muscle soreness, improving sleep and boosting immunity for better performance.

Yep good ol Texas weather!
We'll be in the high 70s today but are on a trend of mid to low 50s at night, 70s to high 80s for the day. But it's still February and I don't trust this shit at all. I still expect another hard freeze between now and April 1st.
Like you guys going off that farmers almanac...That shit don't work here. FA claims 80% accuracy, Science says it's 50%. Texas says hold my beer, it's 15%. You just never know. 2 years ago this time of year we had this shit

With this warming trend I feel like I'm behind the 8 ball this year. Too late maybe on putting down corn gluten for weed control and I never feel like I start my veggies early enough and this just makes it worse so today I'm dropping Lebanese cukes seeds and some pepper seeds in the VG.

Yep ol Bee Cave Bob is our go-to critter haha! Bee Caves is just down the road outside of Austin. Rich folk living out there in fancy houses by the lakes. They do have an awesome organic garden center out there though ran by John Dromgoole who's like the OG of organic wizardry.
Everything cool seems to get named Bob out here too. I think it's after Bob Armstrong, a local politician and environmentalist from back in the day. Dude even has a queso dip named after him.
But yeah, Bob > Phil

Bee Cave Bob to make his weather prediction Friday afternoon

Most of Bob's predictions have been an early spring

i'm cuttin!!! well preparing to anyway!!

man i never even heard of cheribundi. i had to stop at the grocery store tonight and i looked for it but they didn't sell it, i'll have to look at one of the bigger stores in a bigger town. our local place is limited sometimes, they don't even sell dark chocolate m&m's with peanuts!!! ggrrrr!!

that's one great thing about the puffco, it uses such a small amount of liquid it's cheap to try out different things in it!!!

i have a dark berry tasting sugar right now i bet cheery juice would really enhance it!!

.

man i sounds like you got some perfect sleeping weather!!!

i'm gonna cut em!! well most of them anyway. the stretchers just ain't gonna work, node three is like five inches up!!!
i'll cut the best looking ones first and go from there. this was the entire reason i wanted to start so many, just so i could be picky and choosey!
i just need nine, and want to clone some... it would be sweet if i could train 10 or 11 that way i can pick the best 9 for flower.

i fully agree with the symmetry part.. there won't be much left once we trim and all their energy is going into just two branches so even growth is key.

i'm not totally prepared with my tie downs and did want to ghetto it so i ordered some for $15. but zon is gonna be a day late now so i might wait for the tie downs. Jonnyboy mentioned that he normally waited a couple days after topping before trimming off the two bottom nodes and bending out. he didn't wait this documented time and posted pics the very next day of them being completely trimmed and trained. so i might top tonight and trim and train sunday. he used ten staples per plant.. maff says 10 staples nine plants.. 90 staples plus more if i wanna train more than nine!!! i ain't giving up that much copper wire, not even my scrap wire!!!!!

but i still gotta get my cloner emptied/cleaned/filled and ready to go. i got nothing going on tomorrow so i can make it a late night and maybe adjust my shelf lower like i wanted and also add in the new set of brackets i got to make my shelf deeper to give me more room, both sq. footage and headroom.

i also plan to feed all the young plants some veg nutes and i already gave all the flowering girls their first dose of finisher nutes earlier tonight!!

i think you just haven't found the right bean yet!!!

if you wanna haunt Bandit forever then make his spirit vegetable a chili bean!!!

i'm really hoping for some flavor from the tropicana cherry... smells kinda like citronella right now. i'm hoping it mature into a deeper flavor.

 

[steamroller]

I did not even think of landscape fabric staples.
Need to see if any of the stores have them in stock now.
Much easier and we use them all the time.

I just smoked some trop cherry my FILs buddy grew, hes been curing it 6 months now.
It was a very very nice uppity smoke, citrusy floral notes, with hints of cherry and earthy nuttiness, very good stuff. Just the same as anthem always described his was like.

i could have used something else that i had laying around or even printed hooks but i just didn't want the hassle and i've wasted more than $15 on stupider shit so i went the ez route. these are the ones i got...

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BYDLJ8V3?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1

gonna top them tonight... maybe six of them are getting mainlined and the rest just topped the way i've been doing it. just don't think i have more than six that are good for mainlining. the growth on all of them is still better than i've recently done if not maybe even ever.. so not disappointed at all.

i was gonna cut them last night but my cloner wasn;t ready. the water was cold and i didn't want to take any chances so i filled it up this morning and left it run all day and tempos are up and ready to go.

the periwinkle pie and dip n stix might not get mainlined. but all three imperium x, an oreoz or two, two of the straight jacket will get mainlined.

that's great to hear actually!! i have a great imagination and a hell of a placebo effect so even subtle hints of flavors excite me!!

right now i'm getting all the citrus floral so just hoping she matures into some depth on the cherry!!!

one thing that has my tail wagging is the alien rock candy... she smells exactly like my old cut of ARC i had for like ten years. i can't wait to cure her and have quite a few side by side smokes with the old stash!!! she was always a fast finisher and this one seems to be right on track with that!

 

[steamroller]

I got into the tent and felt the same way.
I mainlined 4 and of those 2 did not have branches yet at the node I can train.
All others got topped and I stripped the bottom single leaf and first set along with growth in node.
Figured why waste any plant energy down low when it is just getting stripped later.

that's a great point man, why waste the energy. that's why we're mainlining to begin with it to direct all growth to where we want so why not take the same approach to all the plants. even if we only get 70% efficiency it's still better than doing nothing i guess.

either way it sound like a great plan to me!!!

 

[steamroller]

For how tall most of the plants were the branching was not there on most of them yet.
I didn't want to mainline any of the DFG stuff, but they were growing better than the rest.
I also figure that topping will redirect growth down low so mainlining is still not out of the question moving forward. As the branches below the top grow I can still choose what to do.
I mainlined at different nodes because on a couple the growth at the 3rd node was not even already. One branch had an inch more than the other so I just went lower.
It's all an experiment so good learning is to had hopefully.

that all makes perfect sense man. i might even go for a lower node for the same reasons. i bet the node we do leave will have crazy quick growth with nothing else to focus energy on!!!

i'll get some pics up then. just had an extra large coffee so i can get in there with a good steady hand on the scissors!!

 

[Stoneyluv]

welp...



messed one up by accident and the rest i chose the cuts..





and just in case i messed everything up i took cuttings as backups!!!



go #5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Bandit420]

Looks good to me!
I like how you're working with the branches that come off 3 and 5 point bottom leaves and not the lower baby bit single blade stems.
Are you gonna take the bottom fan leaves and first set of leaves off too or wait until there's a developed shoot coming off those inside nodes?

This is very similar to making alternating cuts mainlining except I'd get it to four branches and not tie them down unless it was for LST purposes.

yeah i plan to take those fan leaves once i see more growth. my next step and goal is to make them look like this..



this is jonnyboi's plant that he is flowing right now. ^^

goin green!!!! oh yeah!!

Right on man! Now I see the method to the madness. I remember seeing his work, mainly because we wear the same Nike Vapormax shoes

I gotta shut down and go dark and catch the race later this evening on DVR. Dang Sunday baseball started an hour before the race and I was debating watching live or DVR and decided DVR.
So yeah I'll be back later happy AF or pissed off. Probably somewhere in between

Well bad day for our guys and man did we have some fast rides but wow! What a race!!! Nice pick on Suarez too man! That'll move you up in the pool! My consolation prize was another top 10 finish in the pool which I think will keep me in a tie for 1st this week.
Got Willie B for Vegas and after seeing him on Full Speed I'm pretty sure he's an alien cyborg from the future sent here to just kick ass in racing.

I still can't believe that 3 wide photo finish! Yeah go ahead and file that one in the Greatest Races catalog holy crap was it good!
My wife is still on a high with the 99 win. She's an Amigo and rocking her #99 Trackhouse gear today.
And she doubled down on Busch being her second fave driver, Briscoe and Larson tied for 3rd fave. I told her if she wants a Busch diecast it will have to be wrecked and set on fire hahaha! I think maybe I'll get her a couple 1/64 cars, an 8 and 99 for her work desktop.
But yeah last year with KB going into those tires at Chicago then driving around TMS in reverse sealed the deal for her. She loves crazy bro what am I gonna do? Shit, she married me so I can't complain about that!

Man going back to Netflix Full Speed, I watched it again last week and Bootie Barker is a national treasure!! Man it sucks he's on that 23 team because it's so hard to wanna see him win but Bubba lose. I want BB over at SHR!!! Stewart needs to money whip him and get him on the 14 team. Or maybe just give him another bottle of rare bourbon will do it hahaha!

 

[steamroller]

Real good race for sure, except for the 22.
He has to be lit~!
Thought the 5 was doing real good till he wasn't also.
Super fun race to watch for sure.

i thought it was a great race for sure!! i did more standing than sitting while watching. that one point i think it was the start of the last stage when they all came off the corner four wide for second!! guys i was actually jumping up and down cheering!!!

most lead changes there in history!! most cars wrecked too though,,, what was it, only like five cars at the end that weren't in an accident? other than all the wrecks i loved it... wait let me rephrase that, cuz i do love wrecks mostly.. and love restarts even more but i just hate to see almost any team get a DNF. Larson has his first of the year already!!! just sucks for the 5 team, since they repaved that track they've had a DNF every time now. past results never show how decent of a car they bring there. they only loosened him a tad early on with a slight air pressure and that thing was dialed in all day!!

buy wow guys could imagine if all the races were like that???

still not sure i saw a chevy disadvantage from the new changes... looked fairly even across all the MFG's if you ask me. i mean that was the goal it's just all the "experts" were saying the fords and ota's were going to be better than the chevys... lets face it though, they're not really fords of chevys or toyotas,, larson drives a hendrics car, about the only thing chevy on it is the bowtie!!!

i'm coming for the race pool lead this week though!!! Bandit's tie for 1st, third and fourth are tie, and i'll be in fifth!!! i got C-Bell this week!!!! after watching the netflix show how can ya not like christopher bell!!!

alright i gotta go finish diner.. having thanksgiving at the luv shack tonight, slow cooked turkey, mashed taters, and carrots!!

so amazon has been dicking the dog with my metal stakes. i had to take matters into my own hands...



printed ten for 13¢ ... i'll be getting my money back from amazon if/when they show up after being four days late.

made em orange so they're easy to see...

some got their new tops (maybe should call em side tops??) cut off tonight. left all the leaves i could for now. they're all still drinking and had some new growth already so that's a good sign. i watered them kinda heavy yesterday so i will let them go for today and give them a good one tomorrow with a little veg nutes even...

I was wondering when the printer would come into play.
I gotta beef with 'zon too. Been taking advantage of that $3 credit on digital for slower shipping then after getting a bunch of shit for free, now they only give me $2.25 on that credit if at all. Fuckers.

I really figured you would print your hooks~!
I looked back at pics of previous grows and my girls are not slow by me.
The branches start to grow better after topping so maybe this week will get my girls in better shape.

oh that's some straight up BS right there!!! i saw they charged me for the yearly prime.. over $150 this year. and i saw prime just added advertisements,, wtf???

they lost my hooks and i'm kinda glad i was silly for not printing them in the first place. of coarse it didn't come easy though. i changed my filament to print them and my printer wouldn't work right, the nozzle seemed clogged, i changed it all out and still had issues. here it was a small piece of scrap filament jammed in the extruder gears!! learned something there!!

i thought they would stall much more than they have. i noticed their knuckles have been bulging out, it's like they know whats coming!!

some of them are growing tight enough horizontal nodes that i will need to clip and skip one and some plants are spaced out so much i just went with the first two horizontal nods and cut the side tops off.

did you see jonnyboi's update? he's got all colas growing.. not colas and branch buds but everything is colas!! i would be utterly amazed if mine grew like that!!

 

[Stoneyluv]

ending week seven since pistils... everything is growing fine, no problems. i am definitely seeing the repercussions at this point from all the hell i put these plants through during veg. just small buds, small plants.. lots of leaf to bud ratio. i'll be happy just to get this grow done and out of sight. not a total waste of time because i learned a bunch. but now i know next time to just bail and start over. yeah it's expensive on seeds but it's even more expensive keeping a heater running in the coldest part of year for like twenty weeks of veg or whatever it was.

but the great part is i still get buds...

bud porn from the back row... critterz, sticky icky, and watermelon gelato...







family shot....



mainliners are looking good and seem to be growing full speed again. i'm moving the staples almost twice a day to keep them at the furthest points to try to keep them straight . gave them some food too, a half shot of each...












the cuttings all look good so far, i think i might try and squeeze these into a round of flowering if the timing looks like it might work out. we'll see how the mainliners look at the time of harvest. could be as soon as three weeks from now so i'm gonna continue on as if i plan to flower the clones and probably keep them in the cloner until i'm ready to flip. it will be a hard flip if i do it. not sure there will be time to gently ease in flowering but if there is, i will!!!



having some crazy storms here tonight... hope i keep power. had a couple brown outs so far, one was when i was downstairs taking photos!! i didn't have a flashlight with me either!! at least it's warm though... 40 mph winds but it's 45*

new survivor starts tonight... hope the dvr didn't/doesn't reset!!!

have a great end of week everybody!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this week is flying by for me and will be friday before i know it!!!

They all look great from my seat here on the other side of the internet!

I'm taking notes on the mainline because I may run some mother plants using that and bonsai the fuck out of them so I can keep them in a small space nice and tidy.
Also been thinking about that wind down on time for y no veg grows from seed. I think for this round it may have worked but they all don't start at the same pace so maybe 12 would wind down then the other 8 woulda joined in at some point a week or two later.
I just don't know if a hard flip is better of if they even care.

Uggh your cold is making me dread this Summer. I just don't know if I can grow July-Sept. with the utility rates now. Even in Winter my bill is $75 more than the bill same time last year and I'm using less. Rate hikes are a muddafucker!!! If I do a grow it will be downsized for sure and no spectramax.

Hey I been meaning to ask...You still have your CMH? Those things might make a decent heater + good light. IDK yet but mine might come out to play here soon as I turn over rocks looking for efficiency. The last fixture I have left has adjustable watts so I need my old killawatt meter to see what I can do with it compared to a 550 for some light duty work.

Man the pool this week is a big ol sister kisser!
Everybody almost picked the same driver as the person above or below in the rankings! Probably won't be much movement but this is one weekend we get to boo and hiss Dongle Nozzle with a little more venom than usual!
And did you see Larson will run some Xfinity races! He's doing double duty at COTA so I'll Get two Larson runs for the price of one!

They all look great from my seat here on the other side of the internet!

I'm taking notes on the mainline because I may run some mother plants using that and bonsai the fuck out of them so I can keep them in a small space nice and tidy.
Also been thinking about that wind down on time for y no veg grows from seed. I think for this round it may have worked but they all don't start at the same pace so maybe 12 would wind down then the other 8 woulda joined in at some point a week or two later.
I just don't know if a hard flip is better of if they even care.

Uggh your cold is making me dread this Summer. I just don't know if I can grow July-Sept. with the utility rates now. Even in Winter my bill is $75 more than the bill same time last year and I'm using less. Rate hikes are a muddafucker!!! If I do a grow it will be downsized for sure and no spectramax.

Hey I been meaning to ask...You still have your CMH? Those things might make a decent heater + good light. IDK yet but mine might come out to play here soon as I turn over rocks looking for efficiency.

starting to train these plants and i definitely gained footprint room for sure. and i bet you could make that work special fit for any space like square corners and stuff...

and yeah i'm not sold on anything with flipping hard or soft yet but i wanna gather more data for sure!!

it was nice here for like two days straight.. broke 60 and everything!! then today it was like those guys up north left their freezers open or something because it's right back in the 20's again right now!!!

and yes sir i still have both my sunsystem lights. i loaned one to a friend to start out but he said the light kept turning itself off at random?? he gave it back to me but i never checked it out. i have a feeling it was user error. i also offered one up to another friend that had one already and was having problems but due to other issues she hasn't grown in a long time now. for now they're downstairs next to the flower cab collecting dust!!

speaking of the nozzle... i was thinking you should get your wife a car or two for her desk, and put a sticker on the bottom of the 8 car that says "this end up" hahaha!!!!
yeah man there were so many changes in nxs that i never did look at all the swap ups and was wondering if HMS had a car this year.. i'll have to get caught up on that!!! it's been a couple years since he's ran that series!!

i gotta root for c bell this weekend and then i have briscoe for next weekend winning a clock!!!!!!!! larson likes vegas a lot, he's gonna have some speed!!!

ending week seven since pistils... everything is growing fine, no problems. i am definitely seeing the repercussions at this point from all the hell i put these plants through during veg. just small buds, small plants.. lots of leaf to bud ratio. i'll be happy just to get this grow done and out of sight. not a total waste of time because i learned a bunch. but now i know next time to just bail and start over. yeah it's expensive on seeds but it's even more expensive keeping a heater running in the coldest part of year for like twenty weeks of veg or whatever it was.

but the great part is i still get buds...

bud porn from the back row... critterz, sticky icky, and watermelon gelato...

mainliners are looking good and seem to be growing full speed again. i'm moving the staples almost twice a day to keep them at the furthest points to try to keep them straight . gave them some food too, a half shot of each...

the cuttings all look good so far, i think i might try and squeeze these into a round of flowering if the timing looks like it might work out. we'll see how the mainliners look at the time of harvest. could be as soon as three weeks from now so i'm gonna continue on as if i plan to flower the clones and probably keep them in the cloner until i'm ready to flip. it will be a hard flip if i do it. not sure there will be time to gently ease in flowering but if there is, i will!!!

yeah definitely a press before a puffco!!!!! a puffco doesn't play nice with any dry material that doesn't melt.

Thanks man, your documentation was very easy to follow and gave me the confidence to try! i now have all the tops cut and just waiting for the eight legs to grow.
