1 more OGT,1 more Grape diamond and one more BCB. The OGT pull away from its roots during transplant but seems "OK". It is droopy but it should be dead after the sun yesterday so?

Lights are about as high as they can go. I could eek out another 3-4 inches maybe.
Had to tie some plants to their poles and others required Yo-Yos.
It is getting thick. Feeding weekly with watering 2-3 times during the week. 15 gallons of feed tonight.
Snagged 3 bags of COM Stonington from my local ACE for $33 each.
Store is only 2 miles away and while having full pallets of other COM soils it seems they get 3-4 of the Stonington at a time and it is first come first served. I will be keeping my eyes peeled from now on.

DSC_0101 - Copy (2).JPGUppotted the 4 Candy store clones in the tent and it seemed like 3 out of 4 did not really have roots~! Also topped the two Sirius Black clones outside and brought their tops in to attempt to continue on with. Risky but they are small so wee shall see.

^ eliminated the smallest Freak as it was less than 3 inches and looking burned. The freebie Canna Fun took its place^

^ The two Fruity Freaks that remain^ The small one is the runt of the group besides the OGT with root issues.
Hope everyone had safe holiday weekend~!
 
Wow! Looks like a whole lot of work and a whole lot of wonderful all mixed together. I think I recall you doing all of the trimming solo. If I'm remembering that right, you might give Edward Scissorhands a run for his money, lol.

You really like the Sirius Black, right? I hope bringing the clones in works out great. This has been a lot of fun to follow all of this 👊

You are correct on all counts. I trim solo so the spinner bowl / Bass-o- Matic really comes in handy. I may have swam out a little too far this time.
Only time will tell. The room is very crowded and I do like that~!
I do really really like the Siruis Black.
If I was to recommend 2 strains now they would be Sirius Black and High Mars.
Both from B2ACG here on monthly sales. Y'all will need to be real quick to beat me to the next time he has Sirius Black.
I have another from him called Think Tank that I have yet to grow which is another high THC strain like the High Mars.
Looking forward to growing that this fall or so.
 
Getting to 5 weeks 12/12 and plants look healthy.
Healthy like they don't know they are supposed to go sideways next week.

I hate running the lights 6pm to 6am.
Takes all the fun out of checking in and hanging with the plants.
If I grow during summer next year, I will just bite the bullet and run during the daytime.
The room is basically running perfect how I see it. Had to install a couple more yo-yos tonight.
Got some color coming in and the buds are starting to stack and beef up real nice for 5 weeks.
I have not hooked up the bluemats or gotten CO2.
Looks like it will be a nice harvest.
Hope everyone is having a great weekend~!

Do you run lights at night for heat issues?

Yea exactly. The room is air conditioned so I was just trying to be Froogle. Not worth it IMO.
My room is not in my house, so it is the only temperature-controlled area in the shop.
It definitely has been up 90f-100f many days this year out there.
I keep a 20 inch box fan blowing out one window but other than that is in full sun all day if the sun is shining.
I am sure it is smarter to run like I am, but it just doesn't fit my schedule/life.

wow six weeks already!?!? they look fantastic man!!! some really great growing!!!

looks like you're back to buckets full time now huh?
Click to expand...
The bigger buckets allow slacker moments without harsh penalties so far.
Yea I think bigger is easier and bigger plants for me. Besides extended veg time I think even the difference from 3g to 5g is noticeable.
To boot it seems the Ace 2 miles from me will keep stocking Stonington for $33 so I am in easy.

Thanks man.
Feels like the old days.
Been a while since one of my grows didn't get sideways.

Some bud shots day 48

Happy Saturday all~!
;roc
 
I guess I am week 8~!
They all look or could be done if I wanted them now or needed them.
A couple have seriously peeked my interest but all but the 2 Sirius Black show no signs of slowing down or even just starting to fade.
I'll let the slacker take over from here.
They were all fed week 8 again on the schedule yesterday and are drinking like fiends still.
Lots of falling all over, yo-yos and pipe cleaners tying back to stakes. 35 yo-yos last count.

I get it. We have what they call peak hours. Basically if you use electricity during the hours people like to live and enjoy life you pay a much higher price. Funny how retired/old people pay the price while younger people are at work. 😤

I do 7pm to 7am. We only get dinged for a few hours this way. But I only have a few hours to deal with things at night or early in the morning.

It does help with keeping things cooler in summer and warmer in winter though.
 
So I let them go till today/ almost week 10.
Lights went out on Friday and I chopped and hung them all in the room today.
What a sticky mess they are and I ended up~!
I'll get pics and weights in a couple weeks. Was an impressive grow and measures up to my first grow in my mind so no more chasing.
May not keep anything in the tent.
May just keep the two Sirius Black clones as I have no more seeds of that strain.
Hope everyone is having a great weekend.

Next grow will be around Nov. probably.
Got to get this grow dry which it is not still today and then complete whatever comes from the outdoor clones.
I got Think Tank and Glowberry from B2ACG and a couple other strains [ who can remember them all] that I want to try out.
May order up some more Elite Cut Genetics seeds as they grew trouble free and seem like they should be fire.
 
Outdoor clones are looking pretty good for the effort I have put into them.

^ This is how they started and mostly have stayed with a little extra space between them as they grew.
I only moved the pots once and when I did I heard roots snap that had attached the plants to soil.
Since then the weather and wind have had at them hard. I found almost all of them tipped over one day after stiff 40+mph wind gust came through.

We were 3 inches light of normal rain last month.
Hoping the trend continues through this month at least.
They all got fed today with first dose of #2 [ Beastie Bloomz] and the last of the Tiger Bloom installed.
Hard to say if it was the slacker or soil, but I would say the Raised bed soil was about as loaded as Pro Mix which has nothing in it nute wise.
Gathering supplies [ Stonington] for next grow which will start probably around Nov.
Still cleaning last room grow~!
I tried to turn this in and they said it had been used already~!

I am going to want to use the room to dry the outdoor plants also I figure so no starting before the room is cleaned up afterward. Not even seedlings. I will want to bomb and do a thorough cleaning I think even though I have not had issues since last grow.
November - January are the best months in the room for well controlled growing with least amount of equipment needed to stay balanced.
Learning over time less than 5g buckets just gives me humidity and water issues that don't appeal to the slacker.

We had a few days of on/off high winds earlier this month. Broke a few branches and one plant in the vegetable garden. In the past a few got pushed off the stoop. The Autos did fine, it was the damp days that followed that got me with WPM.

Looking good. Colours are coming in nicely.
 
I am supposed to be growing now but slacking is effortless~!
I do have the next grow seeds many times over and super cool new VG Bandit custom made for me~!
DSC_0115 - Copy (3).JPGDSC_0116 - Copy (3).JPG
I even got a couple bags of Stonington.
I guess I could get the room cleaned up and turn the lights and heat on.
My unannounced plan was to get closer to legal numbers.
Well maybe not legal but closer, like 10 or less.
I have Think Tank, Glowberry and Sirius Black from B2ACG and a while ago I stocked up on regular Hashplant seeds from Ethos.
I have grown the Sirius Black a couple times and really like it.
The Hashplant was done in my first grow and a couple times since. A great plant but regular so a little extra effort and killing plants in the middle of the grow which I usually only do after about 4 months~!
But I usually veg for 8 weeks or so so if I want a harvest before May I better get started.
I'll think of a new title for a new thread, get my shit together get the ball rolling.
It really is just as satisfying watching you all grow since I am stocked to the gills with herb already anyways but I'll get on it~!

I can understand your taking time off, if I'm honest I hate growing now.

I would buy at our local dispensary that claims to grow everything on site, but Maine is having a big problem with illegal Chinese grow-ups and basically poison weed, you should see the drums of chemicals taken from these raids, all with Chinese writing!

They're also poisoning our streams, rivers and wells with their runoff. It's a big problem and the governor's brother is allegedly involved in it.

So ya, I don't trust the dispensaries, so here I am.
 
I have read about the Chinese just destroying houses in their grows up there. It's a real big problem.
Poisoning the ground water and leaving even the houses contaminated after their grows.
I have still never been in a dispensary, but it is more old school for me.
I am shocked to see sometimes up to 20 cars at the dispo only 3 miles from my house at hours like 9am on Sunday~!
One of my buddies won a Ham from a Thanksgiving raffle at it~! :oops:
Taking a break from growing does not restrict my use.
Everything I grow is just for me and I have been carried away with every grow so far.

I have a dispensary story pipe carver may remember me telling at the other place, it goes back to 2015

The first or was it the second dispensary that ever opened in Massachusetts was in Salem, and I knew a girl from the beach who worked there

I had only been there a handful of times, one day security kept me standing outside for a good 15 or 20 minutes, said they were having a meeting

I later ask the beach girl what happened she said that the owners were trying to force them to package some weed that was so badly molded that they all threatened to quit en masse rather than do it, and then she said something else that stuck with me, she says "I mean this was just so obvious" which told me that they do package moldy weed as long as they think they can get away with it

That was my last trip to a dispensary. I started setting up my Grow that day
