1st DWC/Hempy Harlequin Joe - Pot of Gold - NYSD - BB - ATF '13

[runewulfsong]

Thanks y'all and welcome...

Yes, this week has been crappy, so I haven't done much overall. I did get some initial bondage going on the seedlings and some deeper LST on the flowering girls to try and control the canopy a bit more.

I lost all the tops I was trying to clone... stems went mushy in the rapid rooters. I'm honestly guessing it was just weak plants since they stretched so much when they sprouted unattended. The other clones from the flowering plants seem ok still, there's no wilting. I'm keeping them humid and softly lit..

Due to finances, I wouldn't let my girl order the tent this month. She would have been giving a few things up I wasn't willing to allow her to do, so I will build the tent myself next month, instead of ordering 1 each month. With the potential heat issues in the room, I'm thinking having one, larger flower area makes more sense, so I will build a tent to fit. The closet area I'm using now will eventually get some wire shelves and will be for moms/clones/early veg. This should make managing most things easier in the space/climate limitations.

Well, here are the pics I attempted to take a few minutes ago:

Seedlings, cloning chamber and future Harlequin Jo Mother:

And the flower area:

I think that the buds are getting bigger, but I see them all the time, so hard to say. I can say that they get frostier every day, lol.

Take care y'all

This is what you had 10 days ago, I can see a nice frosty difference. Keep it real!! awesome work.

 

[runewulfsong]

Thanks Sinse... gonna keep it moving forward. My girl and I are figuring out how to grow a few more in natural light as we rearrange our house, lol. So, maybe I can have a few window monsters, as well as a couple "window sill decorations" so to speak, lol.

 

[Sinsemillas]

You can have many small as well! Like, really small... :> check out some hardcore SoG's out there.

Have a Great Sativaday rune

 

[runewulfsong]

Much thanks Fishcake... happy sativaday to you, but I'll be afganing myself, lol, afgan kush goo anyway, heh heh

Yeah Sinse, I agree, but I try to stay close, somewhat, to my legal numbers, so I'd like to mix and match big plants and littles.

 

[fish cake]

well how about a good Skunkday then

 

[BeemerBill]

Good morning rune. Hope you have a good day. The bud growth is starting to look nice and juicy.

[runewulfsong]

That works Fishcake

Merci bien Bill... wish I could have bushed them a bit more, but small hydro unit and I am happy to see them getting fatter and frostier, lol.

Thanks BID

Well I lost all the hollow stemmed clone attempts from the stretchy seedlings, but I have been starting to train all the other seedlings and now they're starting to bush out, which is nice. Need to reconfigure where they're at though, about out of vertical space, heh.

I also lost a few clones in the rapid rooters when they got knocked over (yeah, I was NOT happy on that one), but we'll see what survives. I will try and get some new pics up today or tomorrow if I can and if my internet keeps working

Rune, you need The Bonsai sultan method The Bonsai Sultan Method: Typological Breeding In Little Space

 

[runewulfsong]

Lol, I've had that bookmarked for about 2 months... just haven't had a chance to read it all yet... it's opened in a tab at the end of my "currently reading" firefox window, heh heh. Hopefully I'll get it read in the next few days.. I'm also trying to catch up on old journals of anyone I'm subscribed to now, so I've been doing a loooot of back reading... Just got current on OMM's journals last week He is awesome.

But yeah, I've always loved bonsai and plant training, so I'll likely always be doing some of that. I like bonsai cannabis plants, they look wicked

 

[runewulfsong]

Ok, pic update time, lol.

First, the modified mom/clone/seedling/veg area and the seedlings, just starting training a few days ago:

I had run out of vertical space, even after topping and lst... I came in this morning and 3 plants fans were praying to the light and touching it, sooooo... I dug around to see what I had here and above is the result based on the odds and ends available. Much more vertical space, lol.

Here are the plants in the flower room today:

The seedling:

New York Sour Diesel:

Harlequin Jo

Girlscout Cookies:

Blueberry:

ATF:

Next up, some random bud shots. I think this is about as good as my old camera is capable of:

Well, this is where things reside today, well except for the boy in the bathroom window, lol. Everything is getting frosty/sticky, which is nice... it is interesting to see that first seedling throwing out buds faster than side branches, cool to watch.

 

[Richard Richardson]

Great Photos

Looking sticky

 

[BigIrishDoode]

is anyone else cold,? cuz its getting frosty in here!

 

[runewulfsong]

Thanks guys, they are frosting up a bit more every day

You're in WA, right? So your limit is 15? Was there reason you didn't get the increased limit recommendation? My Dr didn't seem to mind my asking for it. I justified it not on the weight limit but plant count. I told her I can't do any breeding with only 15 plants. Done. Now I can have unlimited. It was more money though, $99 vs $225, but unlimited?!??!

oops sorry got carried away there. The increased cost seemed worth it to me.

Hiker I haven't heard of getting a different card so i could grow unlimited plants. I'm over the limit now but I really don't care but it would be nice. The PNW this summer is really nice and it's a good year to be growing a lot of girls outside.

 

[runewulfsong]

Yeah Hiker, I'm in WA and I hadn't heard of that different recommendation. I'll have to talk to the Dr. about that when I go for renewal. It would be nice for breeding purposes as well as just for experimental gardening purposes.

Bill, yeah, with the seedlings going into veg and starting the Harlequin Jo clone to become a mother, I'm over as well, but as I understand it, it shouldn't be an issue and if ever checked, I just have to kill the ones I choose to get back to the number. Either way, I'll be up to 30 limit next year when my girl gets her card as well. And of course, I'll still always be over with wanting to breed and experiment, lol.

Girls are getting frostier and I'm continuing to train the original seedlings in their 2L hempy pots. When I get the tent up, they'll get transplanted to larger Hempy/Some pot solution and put in the tent to veg a bit more before flower. I'm hoping to be able to toss a few other clones in there then as well. We'll see.

The male is still growing in the bathroom window. A bit slower, but still going and adding a couple lil balls every day. None have popped yet, but a couple do look like they're swelling a bit.

Hiker can you PM me the name of your DR. I have yet to hear of this recommendation that you are talking of. I would like to get in on this.
