Grump's Gelonade X Blueberry Cupcake Grow 🌱

Should I top it when I trim..? Take off the damage? If it wasn't a the top of a main cola I wouldn't be so worried about it..

if it leaves any brown dead material and then later grows around it and swallows it up it will probably invite bud rot.

i've done it more times than i want to admit.... poor plant health and i get a couple dead leaves early and ignore them and then six weeks later i'm upset with myself for not taking the time to trim it right when the damage occurred. you think i would have learned after the third or tenth time that i've done it but no.. maybe this could help you.

Well I'm really kicking myself...

I busted my knee a couple days ago and haven't been able to go down stairs worth a shit so I hadn't checked on the plants in a while. Knee felt a bit better this morning so I hobbled down to peek in on 'em... two had tipped over.

I guess I didn't learn from last round and I'll be making an ALL CAPS mental note for the next go. TIIIIMMMMMMBERRRRRR

Either way... I trimmed 'em up. I took a tall kitchen trash bag's worth off. They're opened up and the humidity is under control

Two phenos. Left an right. Short and tall. Bushy and sativa leaning (pun intended.. those two tipped)



Couple leaf shots. A huge skinny fan and a wonky fucker.



I thought this shot of the undercarriage looked cool...

Plants look great~!
You need the cups that lock in that Moe made.
Busted knee? Really broken or injured bad?
You got to get better, and I need to stop having to say that to so many~!

I just need to preemptively tie them down with that plant Velcro. It works great... if I use it soon enough.

You think they'll straiten back up?

Nah not busted busted, just hurt it at work. I smoked it on that outside sweetspot with a spring-loaded scaffold door. I thought I was clear when I let it go but noooo.

Then I crawled into a little hole where I was replacing some flexible conduit that was old and brittle from the heat. I pulled a flex over to work on it and the sensor that was on the end flopped over and drilled that inside sweetspot. I was in there too cramped to really do anything but pout and finish the job.

It was basically unusable for two days and I'm still having trouble going down stairs. Lots of stairs at work, too. Feels.ok this morning but I've barely used it yet.

Yea they will reach for the sky again no problem.
That is what they do~!

You would probably get some odd looks and maybe make a new friend, but knee pads might be for you~!

Hell yeah! That's what I was hoping.

I just can't do kneepads... I'm not on my knees nearly as much as my last job and this was kind of just a freak accident.

I'll just have to pay a bit more attention going forward. I haven't hobbled like this since I tore my meniscus in high-school.

I'd rather watch out than deal with a sweaty knee-crotch

the dewalt kneepads are my best friends!!! they have a nice calf strap and you don't need to wear the pit straps.

man so many Builders laid up right now... is there any of us 100% right now??

Dude I know it. I'm on the mend, I believe. Just took a shitty impact on both the inside and outside of my knee. I'll be walking fine after my weekend. Go back to work on Wednesday.

I hope a kinesiologist is all you need. I'll never go to another chiropractor after that stunt. Dude was gonna milk me dry with weekly visits. I found out I could pop my own hip by stepping on my steel toe and and giving it a pull. I did that nearly 4 times a day for at least a month before I tried the kinesiologist, and that was after 2 months of chiropractor visits. 1 week at the kinesiologist and it's been "fine" ever since. It'll still act up and be sore if I've done too much, but I say it's fine.

My heater slipped and roasted one of those front colas on the left. My exhaust is maxed to keep up with the humidity so the heater runs nearly nonstop. I've even added one outside blowing right into the filter box. Humidity will fall after the trimming so all should balance out.

It's looking like I'll have PLENTY of buds so I'll probably just let her ride.

is that your new defoliator or an older model

New bathroom means New nail gun, right?

 

[GrumpAzz]

We're into the 4th week and everyone looks good. They've been needing a res change and the ppm meter has been telling me that for a week or so. I've been too busy and/or injured. I've just been filling the top-off with RO.


P.S. - That nailgun is the shizz
