First one is next to a AA battery for size comparison. Next two are of ones coming down in the next few weeks.

Hey crypt-keeper. I should drive over to van and hang out with you sometime \

I tried my hand at growing when I was younger. My dad gave me 4 seedlings. Barely got an eighth between them. Wasn't too bad though. Nice buzz.

[Crypt-keeper]

I get a bit more than that off of mine lol. Next batch will be purple skunk. Takes a bit longer to get it tall about 1 month of veg to get it to about 1.5ft tall. But, bushy little guys just do not produce as much as the jack that is pictured. The crystallization is much more intense though on the skunk.

[TheMadHatter]

Yeah my dad has the green thumb when it comes to these guys. He's had a lifetime to perfect the art. Me however, I do not have a green thumb so much. My parents gave me cactus's growing up..

Personally I prefer Northern Lights. Practically raised on it. My dad told me I should try Early Girl. One of the easier ones to grow

[Crypt-keeper]

The on that is going now Jack Herer is easy to grow. Very fast veg stage maybe 3 weeks to get at least two feet some go even taller in that time frame. once they get to about 2 ft. I pinch them which from what I read is called "Super Cropping" It creates a big knot where it was pinched and denotes the growth to the smaller nodes making it ideal for screen of green. Also works well in sea of green method with one cola. Very easy, hardy plant which is three strains crossed: Northern Lights, Skunk and Haze. Pretty good yield also. Usually 2-4oz a plant. Huge cola's when done on the Sea of Green method. I read the Cannabis Grow bible front to back and while some areas where duh sections others really helped. I ended up buying it after a couple feeble attempts and now have been successful for the last two years or so. BTW anyone have any suggestions for these fucking spider mites? I've done pyrtherian foggers, Aza Max, Neem Oil, Einstein Oil, even ladybugs trying to get rid of these fuckers. One I have not tried are Spider Mite Predators but am beginning to think It may be my only option.

[The Jesus]

Spider mites. Fucking bane of my existence. Not much can be done other than shut down. Clean. bleach. bomb. rid of them and restart again a month later.

Though, I have heard of one chemical that will kill them and their eggs, but it is very expensive and hard to come by.

For Medical purposes only.This is my 1st hydro run (Deep Water Culture) DWC set up. I'm satisfied with my current results so far, but I've run into a few snags such as controling water temps,root rot, and powder mold.Ive taken precautionary measures to fix some of the issues, but come to the conclusion that dirt, or a better advanced system would probably work better. I'm running 400W MH for veg. and HPS for flower, currently in second week of flowering. using foxfarm,generalhydroponics,and some enzyme formula to promote healthy root growth. I have
2 sour deisel,2 GDP (grand daddy purple), and one cheeze haze...just clones I picked up from local dispensery.






CRYPT: to rid of spidermites I've heard of a few ways. I've hear marigold powder mixed in water spray bottle and spray your plants with it, it's totally organic, also I've heard of taking a handful of dried hot peppers chrushing them to powder then boil in water then add to spraybottle to make you own type of pepperspray. I'm not 100% on these methods, but I've heard they've worked in some instances, just be sure to spray plant with clean fresh water after residue dries on leaves.

[Crypt-keeper]

Well I've been able to rid them in my veg room simply by increasing the humidity and spraying twice a week with the azamax. The bud room is my problem spot as humidity is decreased. Now that all the mature plants are out and I'm left with just a couple only three weeks in I went ahead and put a humidifier in the room and am spraying again with aza max. Within two days I've noticed a decrease and hoping that the humidity is doing the trick along with the chem. And if the problem persists I'm going to scrap the whole deal and do as Jesus said and bleach, bomb, and wait. Fuckin' spider mites

[Crypt-keeper]

Oh and ricky are you using tin foil lol. Just a suggestion but, panda film works great and does not bend the light like mylar and foil will. Just a thought

[rickyrescue]

yeah i didnt have anything to put up in there, so tinfoil is all i had lol. i'll go by the grow shop this weekend and pick some up.

[Crypt-keeper]

send me some gonzo lol. I want to buy some seeds but am worried about the whole international shipping thing.

Okay, call me old fashioned, but how in the hell do they come up with these names now. Back in the 70's it was Mexican, Humbolt County, Jamacian or the kick ass shit sensimillan. I remember the mexican used to sell for about 40 bucks an ounce and the sensimillan was about 120 bucks an ounce. But back then we also used to call an ounce a "lid" or "4 fingers" also. Nothing like the good old days.

[bmh]

I can put a bud in front of 10 different people and get 10 different names for it. I'm old and don't understand all of this name shit. If it's good, I could care less if they call it AK-feces. I'll still smoke it anyway.

[Mongo]

too bad the VA hospital doesn't give me medical weed.

[CMDRRABB]

The VA does have an ample supply of N′-dimethyl-4,4′-bipyridinium dichloride. AKA paraquat, Mongo. Also, if they're out that, they should still have some 2,4,5-T laying around (may be before his time...look it up).

The names are made by the seed breeders. It's such a large industry here in British Columbia and Amsterdam, that there are actual legal companies that now grow and breed plants creating better and better varieties to sell just seeds.

An annual Cannabis Cup winning breed can fetch $200 - $300 for just 10 seeds.

Personally I love a good strong Indica over a Sativa, so I like a good old fashion Afghan. I would suggest you guys give Afghan Dream from British Columbia Seed Co a chance. If you really insist on a Sativa twist, I would look up White Rhino (Afghan X White Widow) White Widow adds that Sativa taste and up high not to mention those large and intense crystal coverage. If you love super crystallized popcorn bud, this is your dream come true.

Here is to the dream that are officers can one day focus on real criminals and leave are harmless society free to grow without the fear of government persecution.

[Crypt-keeper]

The one you took a pic of just before harvest looks like it came down early. Didnt appear that any of the hairs where turning. Idealy you want at least 75% of the hairs to be orange/brown prior to harvest. But, I'm sure it came out fine. Good luck with the seeds.

[Crypt-keeper]

so far so good.

[COUGAR_BAIT]

is that a trash can made of duct tape?!

[Crypt-keeper]

Why didnt you just spray paint it black? Thats what I do to the outside of my cloners that I make. Plus if the top is off of the bucket or whatever it is it will still form algae and bacteria. If its your reservoir I'd suggest an air pump and a lid.

[Cloak&Ðᾂᶃᶃɚᶉ]

back when i used to help my land lord grow his plants spider mites tore that shit up, but we got these other bugs that ate the spider mites and than died off they were some type of predator bug.

[Cloak&Ðᾂᶃᶃɚᶉ]

here is what is left of yesterdays sack. and now close

[Cloak&Ðᾂᶃᶃɚᶉ]

post a pic of the buds when they come along. prolly some dank shit huh?

[Cloak&Ðᾂᶃᶃɚᶉ]

you prefer chronic?

[Crypt-keeper]

Even without that leaf it will be fine. If it already had its second set of sun leaves and you lost one it will not hurt it. It appears to be doing fine. How hot do those bulbs get? They look pretty close and I cant 100% tell but as the leave ends are starting to turn up wards it may be too hot. And what I'm talking about is the ridges on the edge of the leaf sticking up instead of laying flat. Do you have some sort of exhaust fan going or just the circulation fan? By looking at the pics I'd say maybe raise your light 3-6" or have a fan blowing on the lights to help dissipate the heat away from the plant just a thought. They look good though.

[Crypt-keeper]

Looks like I can stfu them lol.

[Crypt-keeper]

Still waiting for my Jack to sprout.. Had to botch the whole thing from the spider mites... Burnt everything in the fireplace my neighbors must love me at this point. But Its been about one month since the burning and just started the seeds about a week ago. I need something to sprout damnit.

[Crypt-keeper]

So are you planning on keeping them as Mothers to clone off of or... Did you do your germination in rockwool? They look really good though.
